DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE AGAIN

In a stable environment we take many things for granted.

 

Unfortunately society is a lot more fragile than we think (if we think about it at all) and the consequences of complacency are profound.

 

Beware creeping totalitarianism.

 

I would posit Victoria as a collectivist petri dish worth watching to determine just how such potentially ruinous policies will affect us in the future. 

If the truth doesn't fit into the official policy then we change the 'truth'. Nothing to see here, move along (gang violence), when things go wrong blame anyone else (the murderous bush fires), waste billions on useless policies and constructions that are motivated by false scares, the consequences of which propel living expenses into the stratosphere (climate change?), all of these examples, and there are many more that represent the sacrificing of ordinary middle and working class people on the altar of ideological claptrap by the current Victorian Labor government. 

And it has only just begun. 

Watch this space.

The lame-stream-media would have us believe that Donald Trump is the face of a new Fascism. 

Only history illiterates would conceive of such a notion never mind believe it.

The real dangers lie in those politicians who are at the coal face but are too interested in their own careers, goals and ambitions to challenge the increasingly hostile lawfare that is straight-jacketing ordinary Australians in so many professions. 

I was regaling some friends with my wife and my early escapades into retailing our own brand of clothing during the early 80's. 

As we were sharing stories and experiences it became very evident to all that to be able to recreate such events today would be impossible given the legal strictures and workplace requirements that strangle business these days. The only bodies capable of undertaking much new business today are those with large human resource departments capable of dealing with the debilitating amount of red-tape and governance requirements that local, State and Federal governments place on business development in Australia.  

The end result; free enterprise as we used to know it has almost been eradicated from our society. 

Oh sure, there are still some industries and small businesses that exist against all odds because of tenacious and the sometimes brilliant entrepreneurs behind them. But you speak to the average small and mid-range business owners these days and you will hear horror story after horror story of how bureaucratic busy-bodies are incapacitating the marketplaces.

Soon only crony 'capitalism' as experienced in the communist and 3rd worlds will be able to survive.

That is but one example of creeping totalitarianism in our 'free' society today.

MEPHISTOPHELES AT THE CRACK OF DOOM!

As our fragmenting culture picks its lemming-way across the cracking, fragile, societal membrane stretched wafer-thin over the abyss noir, those fostering the chaos continue to turn up the pressure until polite and civilised society shatters into a million tribal shards.

The destroyers then vacuum up the human detritus of scarred and shattered souls, fills them with a Mephistophelian motive and spews them once more into the mean-streets to wreak their blood-soaked revenge on those whom the destructive elite deem unworthy.

It reflects the vicious yet recurrent theme of history repeating itself ad nauseum; a true truth that chews up the under-educated, dislocated and disillusioned, rinses and repeats until such time as the new shattered zeitgeist renders society ripe for the inevitable triumph of the strongman:

Conor Barnes, a woke apostate, recounts his time among sad radicals:

Radical communities select for particular personality types… They attract hurt people, looking for an explanation for the pain they’ve endured… However, radical communities also attract people looking for an excuse to be violent illegalists. And the surplus of vulnerable people attracts sadists and abusers ready to exploit them. The only gate-keeping that goes on in radical communities is that of language and passion—if you can rail against capitalism in woke language, you’re in…
Abusers thrive in radical communities because radical norms are fragile and exploitable. A culture of freewheeling drug and alcohol use creates situations predators are waiting to exploit. A cultural fetishization of violence provides cover for violent and unstable people. The practice of public “call-outs” is used for power-plays far more often than for constructive feedback… Having somebody yell at me that if I didn’t admit to being a white supremacist her friends might beat me up, and that I should pay her for her emotional labour, was too much for my ideology to spin.

EDUCATIONEM FACERE

In the Western tradition one of our most important foundational presuppositions is that people are individuals.

 

The Socialist mindset holds that individuals make up ‘the people’ i.e. the individual is subsumed within the collective.

Hold this fact in tension: during America's mid term elections 64% of young people voted for left wing, socialist  candidates. In Australia I would guess that our young folk hold much of the same worldview, certainly those 'educated' through the university system.

Why? How can this be so given the atrocious history of Socialist governments?

Answer: Because the education of our young people in the West has been taken captive by left wing ideologues and education has been usurped by indoctrination. 

Don't believe it?  Experiment for yourself. Go and question any young person under the age of 25 (30?) and ask them about Socialism. 

Ask them what they know about Lenin, Hitler (yes he is called a Fascist but [NAZI=National Socialism]and so was Mussolini yet when he gained power Lenin wrote to congratulate a 'brother'), Stalin, Khrushchev, Castro, Mao, Pol Pot, Chavez, et al. 

I guarantee the answers will surprise you if you have any knowledge of world history.

The terrible truth in the West with our freedoms (hard won) and the vote is that each one of us is partly responsible for the outcomes of government; because the individual stands as a bulwark against possible tyranny if we exercise our responsibilities, which makes our existence important. It provides meaning to each one of us individually as well as towards our families, our community and even in some cases towards the world communities.

Why you may ask is this a ‘terrible truth’? Because if you abdicate your responsibilities the negative results are then your responsibility and ultimately I believe we will each answer for these choices including sitting on the fence for that is a choice nevertheless.
