STANDING FOR SOMETHING

Whenever a tragedy in America arises regarding gun violence the first thing the Democrats and their propaganda arm(main stream media) do is to blame Trump, deplorables and guns, usually in that order. 

In Australia we intone 'thank goodness for John Howard' forgetting of course that the entire Australian population numbers less than California...but that's an issue for another time.

The automatic default position of the Global/left/elite(GLE) is to project responsibility on everyone else without even considering the possibility that the worldview they have been pushing for decades might have some part to play.

The obvious question then is; what might be the philosophy that the GLE in America and the West are pushing?

J H Kunstler, social commentator and cultural sage offers some opinions on the matter:

"This is exactly what you get in a culture where anything goes and nothing matters. Extract all the meaning and purpose from being here on earth, and erase as many boundaries as you can from custom and behavior, and watch what happens, especially among young men trained on video slaughter games."

He's right. Young men are the problem. Many of our boys are living in what Kunstler describes as an "abyss of missing social relations" with "no communities, no fathers, no mentors, no initiations into personal responsibility, no daily organizing principles, no instruction in useful trades, no productive activities, no opportunities for love and affection, and no way out."

Our leaders are too cowardly to say so, but the signs are everywhere. Mass shootings are just the final manifestation. Suicide rates for young Americans are the highest ever measured. So are drug-related deaths. Fifteen percent of millennials still live with their parents. Fifty years ago, more than 80% of American adults ages 25 to 34 were already married and living with a spouse. Today, less than half of adults in that age range are married. A huge portion of American young people isn't in any kind of relationship at all. It's no wonder millions of young people feel helpless, miserable and alone. They lack friends or parents or religious organizations to give their lives purpose and moral coherence. They live in a suffocating culture they feel no control over: Local identity and local institutions are the weakest they've ever been in this country.

Most people think our democracy is fake. The policies they live under, the jobs they hold and even their personal opinions are controlled by tech monopolists, media scolds and Washington bureaucrats. America is supposed to be a free country, but millions of young people look around and feel like they're trapped in a stagnant dystopia. In such an environment, a few people will lash out in violence. Millions of others will simply fade away, from suicide or overdose or diabetes. This is the real crisis, the one that produced those horrifying scenes on TV over the weekend. Washington is happy to pretend it isn't happening. But it is. You can't ignore it forever.[Carlson/Patel]

Unfortunately anybody with half a brain and a social antenna attuned to real news as opposed to fake news has been able to observe this phenomena developing for a long time. What can we do?

I believe people are beginning to wake up. The populist leaders emerging around the world in America, the UK, Brazil, Greece and Australia are signifying a changing of the guard, and the GLE hate it! That is why there is the appearance of chaos (in some cases real chaos) in the Western democracies and even in some of the dictatorships of the world.

If one takes the time to dig a little deeper and look behind the scenes almost all of the turmoil is being fostered by ideologues and their foot-soldiers.

A new freedom is on the march and it behooves those of us who value freedom and the values of the West to stand up in whatever way we can.

THE HAMMER & CRESCENT

Conor and I watched the American Democratic Socialist Alliance conference in Florida for a laugh…it delivered. At the moment it is a small blow-up pool of miscreants, gender-confused luvvies, lazy young hipster ‘gimme your money’ snake-oil salesmen, virtue signalling doctors wives and limp wrested jazz handers all amusingly retro-actively addressing each other as ‘comrade’ and led by a gruff voiced comedic octogenarian…but…swimming in that chemical toilet are some ‘real’ Marxist Megladons, Islamic ones too, however these two savage ideologies will eventually part ways when their currently mutual agendas begin to clash….may that be sooner rather than later is my prayer.

What has been illustrated time and again throughout history is that neither of these dystopian beasts have benign intentions and for those who care to do their research the results are easy to find.

The sad truth of the matter is that as soon as those promoting the Utopian impulse are sufficiently powerful to weaken the Western culture within which they have been ‘spoiled’ the always present Morlock caste will make itself known and after that; jazz-hands be gone, alphabet heroes will swing from the tallest crane, and the easily influenced, doped out young(not so!) slacker who wants the ‘adults’ to pick up his/her/ze/cis ‘s bill, will find himself/herself/itself/zeself (ad nauseum) digging and filling holes in an outback gulag…if they’re lucky!

Morlocks vs. Eloi…guess who wins?

CUT AND PASTED 'TRUTH'

The Mueller hearings reminded me of the time I and some fellow believers went to a debate between Josh McDowell and Ahmad Deedat at Westridge stadium in Durban. We all prepared ourselves by promising each other not to be biased or subjective but to acknowledge that if the other 'side' presented a logical and reasonable argument that challenged our view we would accept the most rational perspective regardless of how we might feel personally.

We needn't have worried.

Deedat was so pathetic and his arguments so irrational that McDowell ceased to argue and switched to presenting a more anecdotal perspective based on personal testimony, hoping to 'convict' rather than reason with Deedat, because the man was plainly unable to do so. It was an embarrassment...satisfying for us but cringe-worthy for the hapless opponent.

By the Monday morning however, the Islamic propagation centre in Durban had copied and distributed hundreds (if not thousands) of cassette tapes of the 'debate' edited in such a way as to provide the Islamic 'scholar' Deedat with a significant win.

I knew this because my wife worked with a company whose many factory workers were 'crowing' about the 'decisive victory' achieved by Deedat.

We were astonished. For one that the propagation centre had worked so diligently to achieve what must have been a mountain of work and displaying a technological sleight-of-hand that was impressive to say the least. The other and more important expression of amazement lay in the fact that an organisation set up to propagate religious truth would stoop so low as to promote such obvious lies.

I am no longer amazed because I have learned over the intervening years that Islam's operational manual makes allowances for the propagation of  lies:

Quran (16:106) - Establishes that there are circumstances that can "compel" a Muslim to tell a lie. 

Quran (3:54) - "And they (the disbelievers) schemed, and Allah schemed (against them): and Allah is the best of schemers." The Arabic word used here for scheme (or plot) is makara, which means 'cunning,' 'guile' and 'deceit'. If Allah is supremely deceitful toward unbelievers, then there is little basis for denying that Muslims are allowed to do the same. (See also 8:30 and 10:21)

Taken collectively these verses are interpreted to mean that there are circumstances when a Muslim may be "compelled" to deceive others for a greater purpose.

SEEING IS BELIEVING

My youngest is currently reading (and loving) Great Expectations by Charles Dickens.

Dickens, being an astute observer of human behaviour and therein human nature, managed to capture the transference of zeitgeist perfectly in this novel:

"The same opportunity served me for noticing that Mr Pumblechook appeared to conduct his business by looking across the street at the saddler who appeared to transact his business by keeping his eye on the coachmaker, who appeared to get on in life by putting his hands in his pockets and contemplating the baker, who in his turn folded his arms and stared at the grocer, who stood at his door and yawned at the chemist." 

People influence people who put pressure on other people to eventually conform to the 'orthodox', or what the spirit of the times dictates...sort of an extreme form of peer pressure. 

CEOs' today are influenced by their HR departments, the main stream media, activists and the general rush to 'appearing' virtuous, and given that many are already probably feeling twinges of guilt about the obscene amounts of money that they earn for merely doing a good job (or not!) many of these conflicts are resolved by a desperate need to expiate guilt in some way or another. 

In the past it used to be in giving to the church or charity or some other worthy institution, today they feel the need to be SEEN to be 'good'...the hyper visualization of culture has led to extreme superficiality and the expiation of guilt through signalling their virtuous acts through the various forms of media.

MORLOCK MEAT

Joseph Goebbels said:

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

In today's world consider this statement from one of the leaders of the climate scare campaign:

Paul Watson of Green Peace declared: “It doesn't matter what is true, it only matters what people believe is true."

Its no wonder that Patrick Moore, one of Greenpeace's original founders, and its only environmental scientist resigned in disgust:

He quit Greenpeace in 1986 after 15 years as a co-founder, saying the organisation had become anti-science and anti-human. He now runs consultancy Ecosense Environmental as “The Sensible Environmentalist”, combating what he calls green sensationalism, misinformation, and pop-environmentalism. [Tony Thomas]

In our world, particularly in the West as exemplified by America but certainly not limited to it; the 'state' mentioned by Goebbels is what we in the West would identify as the 'Deep State'. That is; a powerful entity outside of the duly elected government whose intentions both secret and expressed are to reduce our civilization to a One World hegemony ruled by an elite, our 'betters'.

Elites who, since the Brexit referendum, the election of Trump, Morrison and Johnson are now openly expressing contempt for the 'ordinary folk' whom they term the 'deplorables', or who Jane Caro of Australia's ABC hierarchy called 'truculent turds':

Well, Australia may be f..ked and the whole planet not far behind but I am at the best, most brilliant and cool wedding I have ever been too (sic). So I shall just dance & get pissed & stick two rude fingers up to the truculent turds who voted to turn backwards.

The conflict is hotting up...scuse the pun!

 

The, for many decades virtually unopposed, Left-wing hierarchy who have gained control of the 'organs of meaning' in society through what one of their 'secular gods' Gramsci called "the long march through the institutions" are finally being challenged...and they hate it. 

The leading contenders in this loosely aligned movement whose manifesto is clearly outlined in the United Nations Agenda 21 document, have had the political scene in most Western democracies sewn up for decades, including most importantly the main stream media who act as their cheer squad/propaganda arm a.k.a. Pravda in the USSR:

Most people in America don't even realize that tentacles of a dangerous United Nations program are being enacted in our nation's cities and certainly our country, with the full cooperation of those in our highest positions of authority. It is so complicated and difficult to believe that many simply dismiss it, considering it just a conspiracy theory. But even a cursory investigation reveals it is very real and the evidence is easily attained.[N Thorner]

Unfortunately for them; because they have not had to argue, fight or struggle for so long to put their ideas across they have become weak, their skills have atrophied to the point where they are now unable to mount a credible argument for their beliefs. In fact they have to all intents stopped even trying, instead they employ the age-old tactic of intimidation and name calling to avoid answering uncomfortable questions and the so-called main stream media are leading the charge:

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, never said there were "fine" Nazis or Ku Klux Klansmen.
This is one of the two great lies of our time -- the other being that all Trump supporters are racists -- and perhaps in all of American history. I cannot think of a lie of such significance that was held as truth by so many Americans, by every leading politician of one of the two major political parties and disseminated by virtually the entire media.
The major news media need to understand these are important reasons that half of America considers them frauds. And we get no pleasure from this fact. The reason we don't recoil when the president labels the mainstream media "fake news" is that we know the charge is true. Has one major media news outlet yet apologized to the American people for preoccupying them for nearly two years with the lie of "Trump collusion" with Russia? Has one Democrat? Of course not. Because with regard to the Trump-Russia collusion issue, the news media were never driven by a pursuit of truth; they were driven by a pursuit of Trump." [D Prager]

We are in a titanic struggle for our civilization and our enemies are watching and waiting to see what outcome arises. Of one thing you can be certain, if the limp wristed, mealy mouthed, politically correct, non-binary Eloi win, it will not be long before they become mere meat for the sharp teeth of the watching Morlocks 

MEGHAN @ MARIE ANTOINETTE

It doesn't take a Nostradamus to foresee that the Hollywood 'B' actor Meghan Markle was going to inject 'elite wokeness' into the royal family, thus triggering its slide into obscurity. Personally I could care less, but the British people are going to become very angry with miss Markle in the not-too-distant future.

"No, Meghan is criticised for being snobby, elitist, hopelessly out of touch and possessing all the self-awareness of a flea. It’s not Meghan’s skin colour that annoys people, but the fact that she thinks nothing of donning an outfit that costs more than most people in the UK earn in a year and then getting her minders to order the public not to take photos of her. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex happily spend £2.4million of taxpayers’ money on renovating their house but then keep the press away from their son’s christening. Meghan has a baby shower involving private jets to New York and then tries to be taken seriously as someone raising awareness about the importance of mental health."[Joanna Williams]

Peculiarly, though perhaps not unexpectedly the 'wokeness' that these parasitical creatures promote is directly proportional to their own 'blindness' of the affect they have on the 'normal's' who surround them, a form of cognitive dissonance associated with the death of logic and rationality as 'taught' in our 'educational institutions' (re-educational institutions).

Is this the wishful thinking on behalf of the 'Green/elite class' to return us to a pre-industrial time much like the Feudal era when the gulf between the 'lord of the manor' and his serfs was so great that they often didn't even acknowledge their existence. 

Perhaps, but unfortunately for them there is a profound difference in attitude. Nowadays we 'peasants' are not so forgiving and the doffing of the cap is swiftly being replaced by the raising of a middle finger. The deplorables are finally standing up to the fake elites all around the Western world....and there are far more of us.

Never thought I would say in jest or otherwise; Viva la revolucion! or perhaps the more apt phrasing would be; "Liberté, égalité, fraternité, ou la mort!"
