"Democracy is not a panacea. It cannot organize everything and it is unaware of its own limits. These facts must be faced squarely. Sacrilegious though this may sound, democracy is no longer well suited for the tasks ahead. The complexity and the technical nature of many of today’s problems do not always allow elected representatives to make competent decisions at the right time.“ - Club of Rome, The First Global Revolution

A World About to Dawn

Dialectics and The Higher Call  

Lessons From Les Miserables            

"The Wretched Ones"

Our generation has seen many works of art that have stirred the hearts of people longing for freedom from tyranny and oppression.  Musing upon current events the musical, Les Miserables, comes to mind.  For those of us afflicted with romanticist tendencies, like me, however, a caveat is in order.             

Composed in 1980 it is based on Victor Hugo’s book by the same name which is essentially his views supporting the French Revolution of 1848 using the events from the Paris Uprising of 1832 as the backdrop to the story.  Hugo, a reputed Rosicrucian and Illuminist, was a supporter of the French Republican movement which, ostensibly, sought to dethrone the monarchy and install a republican form of government in its place.  The year, 1848, saw many revolutions sweep through Europe and, as well, the publication of The Communist Manifesto.   

Indeed, on Dec. 2, 1848, Louis Napoleon was elected President of the Second Republic.  Exactly three years later he suspended the elected assembly and established the Second French Empire.  Does “ordo ab chao” ring a bell?            

The following clip is one of my favorites.  Beautifully inspiring, yet seductive, it passionately beckons to us to heed ”a higher call”  It is a faithful reproduction and example of a historical era and its mode of mass consciousness manipulation through art propaganda to get the people to play their role in the dialectical mechanics of problem > reaction > solution.  Give it a listen.   
     

                      Red and Black
      
      

Interestingly, red and black are colors often associated with fascism, and other forms of totalitarianism.  Fascism heavily depends on an allegiance framed in emotionally charged, quasi-religious worship of the state.  The secular state becomes the new god and soon the people forget what the revolution was for in the first place.  This allegiance conveniently allows the state to enslave the masses and perpetuate the cycle of oppression.            

We are at a crossroads.  The (real) dark of ages past threatens to expand into complete global tyranny.  All will be lost if The New World Order succeeds in its centuries old plan of slavery and eugenics for the masses.  Right before our eyes the colour of the world is changing day by day.  It is now under a green banner that the cycle of duping the masses to play out their part in the dialectical game is orchestrated.  A new era and its accompanying mode of consciousness manipulating art and philosophy has emerged out of the old.         

Red and Black dumped for Green  

Same Fascism, New Clothes         

The Copenhagen Summit represented the next stage of fascist empire building.  This time, on a global scale.  Learning from the failed template of Nazism, however, the Anglo-American empire puppet masters have retained Hitler’s eugenics and environmentalism and have wisely dropped Aryan supremacy.  Teutonic pagan religion rationalized with fraudulent Darwinian racialist science has been replaced with a more sophisticated “higher call” to rally the people.  

“In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill.” – Club of Rome, The First Global Revolution, 1993.  

Global fascism needs a global art and philosophy.  Cosmopolitan and fashionable, Gaia worship, cloaked by science no less spurious than 19th century theories of European racial superiority, is the vogue.  Decades of media indoctrination have convinced the masses that the enemy is not a particular race, but all of humanity, itself.., quite a clever twist to an old ruse.    

Medieval paganism has effectively morphed into the New Age.  Long after the Cold War, and as the War on Terror becomes passe’, climactic apocalypse is the fear and passion that will regiment us.  Appeasing the earth gods with our tithes of carbon taxes to the World Bank will buy us salvation.  The priesthood of banker/govt funded IPCC prostitute scientists will continue to work their data manipulation sorcery.  “The manmade climate change debate is closed”, they announce.  “We must submit to world government”, they decree.

From BlackListedNews: ”In the 2005 published book How Green were the Nazis?: Nature, Environment, and Nation in the Third Reich the authors explain the Nazis received a warm welcome by the existing environmental organisations as there was ‘an ideological overlap between Nazi ideas and conservationist agendas’. As clearly illustrated by the current environmental groups, personal liberty is gladly sacrificed for what is called ‘the greater good’. It is a well-known fact that most of the environmental fanatics care nothing for matters of liberty, gladly surrendering it to tyrants and their promises of ‘environmental sustainability’. As the authors state: ‘The Nazis created nature preserves, championed sustainable forestry, curbed air pollution, and designed the autobahn highway network as a way of bringing Germans closer to nature.’ Several nationwide programs were initiated by the Nazis as a facade to cover their real plans. The first, ‘Beauty of Labour’, was created in 1934 to enhance the concept of a comfortable and pleasant workspace for the German worker. In the following year this ordinance was followed up by a ‘Reich Nature Protection Law’ to ensure the worker could walk through parks without worries. Also, laws were enacted to control air pollution. Besides of the fact that all political opponents were deported to concentration camps, it was green and happy days in Nazi-Germany.” http://www.blacklistednews.com/news-6717-0-5-5–.html

New Era Leaders and Cadre

Catholic historian and author, Fr. Malachi Martin, offers interesting observations concerning the nature of political movements and leaders.  In his book, The Jesuits – The Society of Jesus and the Betrayal of the Roman Catholic Church, Fr. Martin compares and defines two well-known historical figures.

“[They shared] a clear perception of the only means by which history can be deliberately made, and human destinies can be materially altered.  Gold or pleasure won’t do the trick; not for long, at any rate.., it is not blind economic forces or weight of numbers or even access to power that enables men to make history.  Only an ideal does that.  An ideal by which the wills of individuals can be won.  An ideal for which people are convinced it is worth fighting and sacrificing everything – even life itself.  It is men under the complete control and all-abiding influence of such an ideal accepted without reserve.  Men, in other words, whose ordinary self-interest is transformed by an ideology into an all-absorbing devotion shot through with a high romanticism.“

The two individuals refered to above are V. I. Lenin and Ignatius Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits.

Regardless of how we feel about their respective accomplishments, Fr. Martin gives us an important insight.  Diametrically opposed in goals, both men, nevertheless, keenly understood human motivation and how to exploit it.  Whether motivated by secular humanism or ‘other-worldy’ idealism, the mechanics of political agitation and organization remained the same.  Both employed similar techniques to create and command large numbers of dedicated cadre.

Although separated by approximately 350 years, both Lenin and Loyola understood that it was an organization with military style discipline, supported and guided by a unifying ideology, that would prove succesful in effecting sociopolitical change.  

As we move forward in our struggle for freedom, however, the organizational challenge to bring down tyranny will be different.  An acknowledgement of past organizing strategies, balanced with thinking embracing a new paradigm of freedom will be called for.   It will call for creativity and originality.  Indeed, the voyage into the new era will be into uncharted waters.  Unity, singleness of purpose, and maintaining an integral ideology, must be reviewed and reinterpreted within a context that excludes group mind-control methods of past political leaders and movements.  Less hype, idealism, and romanticism, and more independent analytical thinking will be the key.

The strategy of a leaderless resistance will be become more practical and effective.  The advanced communications ability of this era will favor independent and spontaneous action.  Regimented orchestration from a central leadership will become less necessary.  The Internet has provided a means for open discussion and non-local coordination of activity.  A unifying ideology will still be available, but with the enhancement of more democratic input with less time to ossify – the gap between theory and practice can lessen with virtual realtime empirical testing.  The roles of leader and cadre can become more fluid to meet the challenge of the multi-tentacled and multidimensional New World Order.

Being mindful of form and function, we can establish conditions for new paradigms of freedom.  Our goal is not to merely thwart the oligarchs, but to reinvent the political reality and smash the thought matrix that allows tyranny to thrive.

Denver End the Fed Rally 11.22.09

Some photos from the End the Fed rally in Denver, 11.22.09:

About 30 patriots showed up including folks from the Campaign for Liberty and We Are Change.  Many passersby hadn’t a clue that The Fed was ‘private’ and what the whole rally was about.  As it turned out, quite a few Denverites got educated that day.

“Everyone has credentials here!”

One of my favorite films is Reds, starring Warren Beatty, Diane Keaton, and a host of other big name stars.  Since my awakening to the phony Left/Right paradigm, I no longer subscribe to its political message, but I still find it to be good story and ‘instructional’, as well. 

In this clip from the 1981 film, John Reed (portrayed by Warren Beatty), is an American journalist and communist that finds himself swept up in the October 1917 Revolution.  When urged by a comrade to speak at a worker’s rally, he balks.  Feeling somewhat as an outsider, he replies, “But I have no credentials to speak here.”  His Russian friend disagrees…

Warning: Adult scenes

An important lesson is given here.  Your authority to act is not dependent upon credentials.  No diplomas or certificates are required.  Your authority to act is not contingent upon approval from others, or their permission.  You make your own ’credentials’ when you decide to translate your desire into action.  John Reed’s credentials were earned, as the old saying goes, when he suited up and showed up.

Brick by brick, the foundation for the New World Order has been laid for the past several hundred years.  The international financial elite will soon attempt to place the capstone of open “global governance” atop their pyramidical control grid.  Our work to destroy the New World Order must go further than to temporarily thwart their planners and architects.  We must smash the foundation as well as the superstructure.

The foundation that supports the New World Order is composed of the masses – you and me.  Like it, or not, we are the supporting foundation, not only in the economic terms of financial feudalism, but in psycho-spiritual terms as well.  We have allowed the elite to construct walls in our minds.  Walls that keep us in a psychic comfort zone of complacent acceptance of our own victimization.  Our complacency, fear, and ignorance, are the source of their power.  Tear down these walls. 

We do not need permission.  We owe no explanation. 

“Rights are not given.  They are taken.”  Ayn Rand  

 —————————————————————-

John Reed, author of Ten Days that Shook the World, a book that today remains the standard firsthand account of the Russian Revolution, is buried in Moscow.  If you’re interested in early 20th century political history, the film is well worth the time.  And it’s entertaining too.

November 5, 2012

“Every generation needs a new revolution.”

           –Thomas Jefferson

 

Remember, remember the Fifth of November

 

Just when I am losing hope for the future of America, I find The Year of Youth: Project 2012.  I encourage everyone to check it out.  Here is a group of young folks that get it!  They comprehend the bankruptcy of the false Left/Right paradigm.  They understand that the real paradigm is Freedom vs. Tyranny. 

 

The only thing that stands in their way are opportunist, establishment, Liberals and Conservatives who profit from the status quo - Neocons and the phony Left / controlled opposition working together to hoodwink us into a global police state.  

 

The future is in the hands of the youth.  Passion, excitement, real hope…

 

THE YOUTH MANIFESTO

“In this time of crisis and national decline, the youth of America bear a responsibility to step up and speak out against the destructive policies of our so-called leaders.

Both major parties bow and scrape before the altar of the status quo, each using their time in power to expand Leviathan government and shred the liberties of the American people.

“Change” has become an empty slogan abused for political gain then discarded. “Reform” as a countering meme is equally a farce. Nothing truly changes.

America is stumbling into the twenty-first century weak and rudderless, hobbled by exploding debt, a broken financial system, and disastrous foreign entanglements.

And what is the collective wisdom of the establishment and our so-called leaders? “Stay the course, stay the course, stay the course.”

No. We must change course.

Our generation cannot stand by as spectators while our future darkens by the day.

We must step up and show to the world the power of a generation awakened.

We call on youth everywhere to organize and prepare for our day of maximum effort: November 5th, 2012 – on the eve of Election Day in the Year of Youth.

Remember, remember the Fifth of November.”

The New Order: First Contact

Borg unit: "7of9"

Full Communism and Transhumanism

In the popular science fiction TV and film series, Star Trek, the Borg is an army of cyborgs traveling throughout the galaxy destroying civilizations and whole races of people.  Their spoils of war consist of the assimilation of whats left of the conquered races, and the addition of all their knowledge and being, into the Borg hive-mind network.  As individuals, the captured people cease to exist and are subsumed into one unified machine of war and conquest.  Implanted with cybernetic devices the victims become ‘units’ of one collective organism. 

Like all good action movies, the Borg bad guys are defeated in the end.  But as the lights go up and the credits roll, we are left to reflect on the obvious social commentary.  The writer clearly makes the point that, in order for humans to ‘fit into’ the collective, they must be altered and rendered incapable of independent thought.

In the socialist scheme of things the goal is to bring about universal equality, no economic want, and worldwide peace, overseen by a strong central government, of course.  According to socialist theology, this will usher in the final stage of human history: Communism – the ultimate collective.  In time, the state will “wither away” and mankind will joyfully ’give according to his abilities and take according to his needs’. 

As Marxian scholar, P.J.D. Wiles, puts it.., ”Full Communism is that final state of humanity in which productivity is higher than wants and everyone can help himself in the warehouses (not shops!). Since productivity cannot be unlimited, this entails that wants are limited: a direct contradiction to one of the basic propositions of Western economics. This is only possible because wants have been reduced to needs, Originally a governmental concept, needs are accepted as valid by each consumer, and internalized to become the new wants.”*

Assuming that this internalization genuinely takes hold in the course of countless generations under a totalitarian dictatorship, what the heck, the whole thing just may work.  But what if humanity proves to be stubborn and for some odd reason bitterly clings to personal freedoms?  What if we see through future exhortations to sacrifice for the common good as merely more ideological ruses perpetrated by the same, or yet other, self-serving elites?  Oops!  Well then, we must be altered.  Technocrats and pop culture gurus agree; we must transcend our own humanity.

Wikipedia defines Transhumanism [notated as h+] as “an international intellectual and cultural movement supporting the use of science and technology to improve human mental and physical characteristics and capacities. The movement regards aspects of the human condition, such as disability, suffering, disease, aging, and involuntary death as unnecessary and undesirable. Transhumanists look to biotechnologies and other emerging technologies for these purposes.”   That’s the politically correct version.

Darwinian biologist Julian Huxley, brother of author Aldous Huxley,* appears to have been the first to use the actual word “transhumanism”.  The first director of UNESCO (1946) and a prominent member of the British Eugenics Society, Huxley promoted strong centralized planning, social engineering, and population control…

“Huxley was one of many intellectuals at the time who believed that the lowest class in society was genetically inferior. This passage, from 1941, puts [his] view forcefully:

“The lowest strata are reproducing too fast. Therefore… they must not have too easy access to relief or hospital treatment lest the removal of the last check on natural selection should make it too easy for children to be produced or to survive; long unemployment should be a ground for sterilisation.”*

The quintessential progressive, Huxley pioneered utopian thought to its next logical level.  As a subjective value of what humanity should be, not what humanity is, Progressivism has found the missing factor in the formula for building the perfect society: h+. 

Eliminating unpredictable human behavior with bioengineered ‘enhancements’ will ensure cooperation.  Transhumanism is sometimes refered to as, ‘posthumanism’.

Overtly a preposterous idea to most of us, nevertheless, we are incrementally becoming habituated to willingly plug into the hive.  The scientific dictatorship has manufactured an appeal for the hive-mind: Convenience.  Diabolical mass media mind control, however, will have less to do with it than our own ego and gluttony.  Why be inconvenienced by the mental labor and anxious uncertainty of sorting out life’s problems when others can solve them for you.

Can you hear me now?

A growing ethos of irresponsibility has replaced the spirit of self-reliance.  OnStar relieves us of reading a map and keeping track of our own car.  No longer needed is short-term memory or handwritten notes.  We stand in the cereal aisle thankful for our cell phone; “Honey, they’re out of granola.., what should I do?”  Art Bell, former host of popular radio talk show, Coast to Coast AM, once observed, ”Americans are so lazy, if the remote is broken, they will not get off the couch to change channels even if they can’t stand the program.”  Embodied in this statement are a thousand words. 

We boast of our advanced lifestyle of instant gratification, but forget the mental and spiritual cost.  It’s much easier to have someone else craft a comfortable delusion for us to live in than to face painful reality with assertive and independent analytical thought.

We are composed of a generation of Americans who have been handed the luxuries of liberty, but do not comprehend the sacrifices involved and the true value of it.  Big Brother tells us slavery is freedom.  One lie begets another.  The contrived boogeymen of terrorism, pandemics, and God knows what else, will work to get us to hand over the last pretense of freedom.  Grateful for the promise of peace and security, many will clamor for microchip implants.  Chipping pets and children have already begun.  Real time government tracking and tracing will insure the continuance of our comfortable delusion.., if only we follow the rules.  Implanted h+ enhancements will complete our servitude and guarantee our devotion to the New Order.

Incumbant upon Truth and Freedom activists is, not only organizing political campaigns, but working to unplug the masses from false realities and paradigms, as well.

Phony Conservatives and Sabotage

In the course of a few years we have witnessed a phenomenal growth of patriot sentiment.  Americans are reacting against ever increasing Big Government intrusiveness, and Big Brother control over their lives, more so now than in recent memory.  Motivated by mounting economic pressure, the present day is marked by self-actualizing activism independent from the phony leadership of establishment Republicans and Democrats.  The veil is lifting exposing a monolithic government with the sole agenda of serving the globalist financial elite.  The theatrics of warring Left/Right factions in Congress, served up by mainstream media, is quickly losing credibility.

"Trust me, I'm just like you, blah, blah, blah."

 If You Can’t Crush the Opposition.., Lead it.

Anticipating that the cat is out of the bag, the Feds are moving to head off discontent and rebellion before the imminent economic collapse.  Reports of FEMA camps and a Northcom troop buildup abound.  In the meantime, the corporatist propaganda machine has cleverly adapted to the current situation and is spinning a new web of deceit.  Sensing that full martial law and complete destruction of freedom is momentarily premature, they are employing mass media mind control to neutralize the opposition.  The globalist aligned Right, i.e., Neocon talking heads, are now donning patriot personas and attempting to convince us that their Obama bashing is all about defending Constitutional freedoms.  Nevermind that a few months ago they were praising G.W. Bush for virtually the same economic and police state programs.  

The Role of Fox News

While CNN’s main job is to craft the reality the elite want you to live in, Fox has always gone a step further to editorialize that reality attempting to elicit certain behaviors and attitudes.  Fox’s latest creation of Glenn Beck and the 9.12 Group serve as a prime example of social engineering using one of the oldest stratagems in the book. 

Co-optation  

The ruling elite…  find ways to explicitly link self-interests of the opposition, [or subsets therein], to its goals…  implie[d] is not dealing stakeholders out of the game but dealing them new cards transforming opponents into supporters.*

The following excerpts from an October 10 article at Infowars.com  describe Beck and 9.12 well: 

Glenn Beck’s 9-12 Project is a deliberate attempt to undercut the Tea Party and patriot movements.

Earlier this year, Amy Kremer, Tea Party Patriots’ National Coordinator, said the movement was being hijacked by establishment Republicans. “We do not want it to be a GOP movement,” she told Newsmax

The stated purpose of Beck’s movement is to get America where it was on September 12, 2001, which is interesting considering Beck’s animosity toward the 9/11 truth movement and  in particular the families of 9/11 victims.**

  It’s about hijacking and taming the Tax Day Tea Party protests, the Independence Day Tea Party protests, and the September 12, 2009, Taxpayer March on Washington. Beck has an established track record of sabotaging the patriot movement. More than any other corporate media figure, he was responsible in wrecking the presidential campaign of Ron Paul. He characterized Paul’s supporters as dangerous terrorists and repeatedly called Paul a kook.

Few seem to see the absurdity of a corporate media television show host claiming to be the leader of a grassroots political movement. Fox News is owned by corporate media tycoon and neocon Rupert Murdoch.

Murdoch and Glenn Beck do not support the patriot movement. Beck’s role is to capture as much of the movement as possible and turn it into a harmless sideshow. The 9-12 movement, regardless of the number of sincere Americans who support it, is another attempt by the establishment to continue and magnify the false right-left paradigm and steer meaningful political change down a dead-end that renders if ineffective.

The Fox social engineers are validating frustrations and anger held by ‘middle America’ and channeling those emotions back into the misguided nationalism of the Bush years.  Notice that their prowar hype and constant fear mongering of Jihadist terrorism continues.  The bankster elite care little for what attitudes prevail among the masses.  As long as they can maintain a war economy, a handy pretext for limiting freedoms and financial enslavement will exist.  

Using the power of mass media Neocons are effectively insinuating themselves into leadership positions of the Tea Party movement.  Today, more than ever, it is imperative that this genuine ‘people’s’ movement be rescued from co-optation.  9/11 Truth activists must overcome their own Left/Right biases and work with these folks to keep them on track against the New World Order and all of its schemes.

**Parenthetically, I think the author misses the point about Beck and 9/11.  Beck has no interest in 9/11 Truth.  His interest is recapturing the prowar/jingoist fervor that 9/11 incited.

The Big Lie 201

Everything you need to know, Comrade!

In The Big Lie 101 I reviewed how the Left/Right political spectrum was altered and then later presented to students by Marxist academia.  Rather than to leave anyone with the impression that this change was arbitrary and without any sort of logic, I think it’s appropriate to examine further the reasoning behind this change.

All generally agree that at the left end of the spectrum, “The Group”, denotes collectivism, egalitarianism, and so forth.  The connotation is that the activity of the individual is subordinated to the collective will of the given group.  Likewise, at the right end of the spectrum is “The Individual” which connotes complete freedom of the individual regardless of the will of others.

As stated earlier, Marxists hold that fascism should be to the far right believing that it represents an extreme form of individualism.  Then the question is, how can Marxists rationalize fascism, a form of forced collectivism, as extreme individualism?

The Great Divide: Idealism and Materialism

Marxism teaches that all of philosophy, by varying degrees, can be divided into two realms; Idealism and Materialism.  Idealism starts with the apriori value that all matter is preceded by consciousness.  For example, metaphysical concepts, as well as established religions that teach that the The Idea (God, etc.) created all matter, fall within the Idealist school of thought.  All matter is subject to mind.  Opposite of this is Materialism which starts with the supposition that all consciousness is preceded by matter.  An example would be Marxism and it’s philosophical cousins, Darwinism and atheism.  From inanimate primordial soup we evolved to author consciousness.  Matter exists without mind, but mind cannot exist without matter.

For those using Marxian reasoning then, it follows that the material productive forces, the economic structure, and the level of technology, etc., of any given society at any given stage of developement, give rise to the superstructure of the political, intellectual, and spiritual domain.  It is not thoughts and ideas that beget our being.  It is our being, our means of subsistence, that determine our consciousness. 

To the Marxian Left, this represents a philosophical foundation of their version of the Left/Right paradigm.  ”Good socialism”, to the left of the spectrum, is political activity that leads to communism.  It is activity in tune with mind-independent, objective historical forces that enable the inevitable destruction of capitalism and ushers in the next epoch of human developement.  “Bad socialism”, i.e., fascism, begins with the personal will and subjective view of an individual, or a small group of individuals, imposing their consciousness against objective reality.

Ludwig von Mises

The Marxian Left regard their ’socialism’ as a necessary interim stage on the way to a loving and wonderful utopia.  The workers and poor will seize control of the means of production, create a ‘dictatorship of the proletariat’, and oversee an orderly transition into full communism.  Whether incremental or revolutionary, socialist change is the ‘natural’ thing to do.  

This nice and tidy rationale, however, glosses over a glaring contradiction.  Labeling it as an “absurd fable”, Ludwig von Mises*, points out that, “the historical role of the egalitarian creed [materialist conception of socio-economic reality] was to disguise the most abject forms of despotism.”  Further, he suggests there is nothing in nature justifying totalitarianism.  Political tyranny flows from the human mind.  It reflects human aims and goals.  Masquerading as empirical science, Marxism is essentially a metaphysical ideology employed by the few to subjectively rule the many.   Indeed, Lenin, Stalin, and Mao, gave life to the theoretical slogan, ‘dictatorship of the proletariat’, with atrocities previously unknown to man.

Communist and fascist ideologies are two sides of the same coin.  Heads or tails, the power elite uses them to hoodwink the masses into accepting one form of slavery, or another.  The true Left/Right spectrum runs from absolute tyranny to absolute freedom.

The Big Lie 101

A Look at the Left/Right Spectrum.

Fascism is recognized as a variation of other forms of collectivization, all being a part of the Left, as opposed to individualism.  It was not until the “Red Decade” of the [19]30’s, and the appearance of Hitler, that the Leftist intellectuals and the media began to switch Fascism on the political spectrum to the Right so that the “good forms of collectivization,” such as socialism, could oppose the “extremism of the Right” which they said was Fascism.

The founder of fascism [Mussolini] clearly realized that all of these collectivist ideas, i.e., socialism, fascism, and communism, belonged on the Left and were all opposed to individualism.  Fascism is not an extreme form of individualism and is a part of the Left, or collectivism.

So writes John V. Denson in his book, A Century of War, Ludwig von Mises Institute.  Denson begins with this observation and then describes how classical liberalism, which our country was founded on, has been replaced with de facto top-down collectivism leading us to the Big War/Big Welfare national government we have today.  From Lincoln and the Civil War to Roosevelt and WW2, Denson uncovers a long pattern of false flag events and machinations designed to abrogate to the executive branch more power, weaken our Constitution, and consolidate the ascendancy of the financial elite.

Denson, however, leaves out what I think is an important part of the big picture equation.  To be fair, though, it is not really within the purview of his book.  The pattern he reveals does not fully explain how, and why, the American people have gone along for the ride.  Public education has played a massive role in preparing each generation to accept the incremental loss of our freedoms – our historical birthright.

Indoctrination

While attending a state university in the 70’s I recall the beginnings of my personal indoctrination into Doublethink.   As a young freshman straight off the farm, eager to have my mind molded by the priesthood of State Authorized Knowledge, I enrolled in Political Science 101.

The professor, a devout Marxist, began with a diagram of the Left/Right spectrum.  Drawing a horizontal line on the blackboard he placed the words, ”The Individual” on the extreme right end of the line and on the extreme left end he placed “The Group”.

“It’s a question of values,” he said.  ”If you regard the needs of the group more important than the needs of the individual, you are a Leftist.”  He went on, “if you regard the needs of the individual as the most important, you are a Rightist.”  “Communists are to the left,” he intoned.  “Fascists are to the right.”

Being your everyday, normal, self-absorbed, egotistical, teenager, desperately wanting to fit in, I wisely decided to be a Leftist.  “Who wants to be a selfish jerk?”, I reasoned.   From then on, for many years, ”Rightwing Fascist” was a handy epithet I used to describe greedy capitalists and all others who believed that the Individual mattered. 

The world was much simpler back then.

It Can’t Happen Here

Considering recent events, It Can’t Happen Here, by Sinclair Lewis, is a fictional novel I suddenly recall from my high school days.  I chose it to read from among several suggested books during my senior year humanities class.  Let’s see.., without dating myself too much, that was about the 1970’s, or so. 

Published in 1935, ”it is a cautionary tale about the rise of fascism in the United States. During the presidential election of 1936, Doremus Jessup, a newspaper editor, observes with dismay that many of the people he knows support the candidacy of a fascist, Berzelius Windrip. When Windrip wins the election, he forcibly gains control of Congress and the Supreme Court, and, with the aid of his personal paramilitary storm troopers, turns the United States into a totalitarian state. Jessup opposes him, is captured, and escapes to Canada.” – The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature

My recollection is somewhat blurred by the years, but looking back, I find that the book was eerily prescient.  Written well before the rest of the world knew the details about Hitler and Mussolini, it fairly outlined the classic play book version of a fascist takeover.  Interestingly, although the story is meant as satire and fraught with bloated caricatures, the similarities to today are striking. 

The author chooses as a protagonist, Jessup, who is described as a mild mannered Vermont Republican – a stereotypical Yankee.  Jessup, among others, sees through the populist hype of Democrat, Windrip.  Nevertheless, he and the conservative opposition are powerless to counter the magic of Windrip’s demagoguery…

 “All the while, Walt Trowbridge, possible Republican candidate for President, suffering from the deficiency of being honest and disinclined to promise that he could work miracles, was insisting that we live in the United States of America and not on a golden highway to Utopia.“

Yes We Can!

Predictably, Windrip wins popular support and within a matter of months accomplishes what the succession of past and current, real life, CFR run, bankster contolled, tag team administrations are still in the process of doing.  He destroys our Constitution and institutes a police state.

Funny.., the things you remember.  Many books have influenced my thinking through the years and, like many, I have undergone a great deal of political evolution.  Concepts and theory interacting with personal experience have led to a perception of things quite different from that found in standard high school civics texts.  But curiously, many concepts put forward in Lewis’ story have stuck with me.  And one, in particular, perhaps unbeknownst to me, has been an a priori driving factor throughout my career in grassroots organizing.

Having to go underground to escape Windrip’s intelligence network, Doremus Jessup briefly finds himself as part of a loose coalition of freedom fighters composed of Young Republicans and The Young Communist League.  Outwardly far-fetched and certainly a source for situational comedy, this coalition, nevertheless, had its own logic.  Lewis understood that both groups, theoretically,were inherently antifascist, i.e., ideologically incapable of cooperating with any government/monopoly capitalist collusion.  Hence, ‘the enemy of my enemy is my friend’, and so forth. 

Of course, things have changed since Lewis’ time.  Today’s GOP Neocons hardly reflect the limited government, non interventionist, and proconstitution values of  historical ‘purist’ GOP ideology.  Ironically, the Ron Paul Campaign for Liberty, castigated as ‘radicals’ by the present day GOP leadership, is the proper heir to GOP founding principles.  As for communists and statist socialists, a maturation of political consciousness and scholarship have revealed them as the manufactured dialectical dance partner of monopoly capitalists in a false paradigm choreographed by a single financial power elite.  They are exposed as no real option to fascism.  They merely represent another form of tyranny and are alternate stand-in front men serving the same moneyed interests.

Regardless, the idea of alliances based on enlightened self interest remains sound.  Further, I truly believe in the power of reason over mindset.  Most people still have the capacity for intellectual honesty.  Only the most inveterate ideologues and committed operatives are immune against challenges to core beliefs.  It is within these alliances that fertile ground exists with the capability to sprout new ideologies.  They often serve as crucibles birthing new politics as theory and action collide.

Case in point: the 911 Truth Movement.  Comprised of Libertarians, Green Party socialists, and everything in between, Truthers have pressed to reopen a sincere investigation and to expose the government cover up of the events of that day.  Here is a group that has folks sitting in the same meeting that wouldn’t normally associate on a political level.  Libertarians don’t go to single payer health care rallies.  Socialists and progressives don’t attend Tea Parties.

911 Truth is, however, uniquely positioned to lead the way past the phony Left/Right paradigm and focus on The New World Order as the real enemy of freedom and democracy.  Truthers understand that neither Democrats or Republicans have a monopoly on engineering false flag events.  They understand that both Left and Right are capable of oppression and slavery.  They hold the key to unlocking a new paradigm.  The elite have imprisoned us in a matrix of false political reality.  911 Truth is the doorway out.
