The extent of the evil is being uncovered

We seem to be in the midst of a COVID glasnost, where the most heinous revelations are emerging. Fauci’s foreknowledge of high miscarriage risk associated with the COVID vaccine has to be one of the worst. These are “I told you so”‘s that bring no joy.

Our infestation of economic traitors

Posted on      by     

Have you noticed that “development” has become the perennial refrain of governors, mayors, city councils, county commissioners, up and down the line? Rapacious, breakneck development, the troglodytic religion of our uncouth, uncultured, unmoored, despiritualized age. America should be held in an esteem somewhat greater than a mere economic zone, and has this neo-barbarian religion of economic development helped anyone at all? Are our lives bettered by this blistering, pious devotion to “development”? The question we should ask is “development for whom?”. Not us, native-born Americans. We are surrounded by the acolytes of brainrot commercialism, who invite invasion from the world, imbecilic disciples of another form of anarcho-tyranny, where our nation is transformed, intentionally it seems, into something we should feel shame in passing on to our children. America as an ideal, a shining fortress on a hill, our own Ultima Thule, something we feel a modicum of pride in, does not enter into the minds of those who oversee its demise. Some understand this, like Bovino, and they get forced out. This is managed decline, coordinated despoliation, the deliberate obliteration of the most exquisite manifestation of human liberty in history. But the first step out of this Hell is understanding how we arrived here, who brought us here, and who prevents us from leaving.

Out of the Archives: Independence Day in the abyss

Published on July 4th, 2020, and viewed thousands of times amid that civilizational crisis:

 

Everything that we have lived through over past four months, everything that we’ve allowed our government to do to us, is stark, blinding proof that there is nothing undergirding our liberty in this nation. The principles of liberty are taught nowhere, rarely passed on, and rarely discussed in any meaningful sense. The ease with which the public, all of us, swallowed the COVID propaganda, even after two decades of ridiculous War on Terror lies, should make us feel ashamed. There is nothing at all shielding our freedom from total annihilation. Look at how easily it was taken, all in one bite, by various petty tyrants, bureaucrats, and medical officials. We all jumped in line, put on our masks, and behaved as if we had been preparing for this moment all our lives.

In many ways, we have. Tyranny is the default state of the human race. It takes a real education to understand the principles that provide the foundation for civilization. But those principles, no longer taught, are no longer there. Nothing has been passed on. Our history has been reduced to simple, easily digestible, caricatures. Mindlessness has in fact been encouraged. Through public schooling, our primitive, tribal nature has been cultivated, ready to spring forth and unleash a prehistoric destruction upon the world.

We, as a species, are running on fumes. To be perfectly honest, liberty is dead in this nation. It’s been dead for awhile, but it took a phony pandemic for us to see the extent of the rot. What is there to do? Nothing more right now than to acknowledge our failure.  Then to walk out into the field, put hand to plow, and actually go to work, knowing full well that it will be a less-than-thankless task. There will be no reward for us. And we do not deserve one. We will work to rebuild the tradition of liberty so that our children and grandchildren won’t have to. So they won’t have to face the nightmare of totalitarianism that is rapidly rising before our eyes. As we cower.

The Libertarian Party has been so spineless that it might as well not exist. The hundreds of millions of dollars poured into various “libertarian” foundations and think tanks have been a complete waste. Worse than that, the money has done more to discredit the philosophy of liberty rather than advance it. It’s funded unprincipled, yet clever, boneheads without the character necessary to advance this philosophy in the face of adversity.

The most effective communicators are the ones with the inner passion to defend this philosophy. They put their necks on the line, engage in debates, and refuse to give ground in the face of the resurgence of the primitive total state. And for the most part their paycheck isn’t tied up with their liberty activism. Money has destroyed the liberty movement. In a sense, it too is running on fumes. We can’t look to PhD’s, or white collar dilettantes to save us. There is no hero, no Messiah coming up the road.

Endless books on the topic of liberty are printed and sold every year. What good has it done? A flood of articles too are published each year. Again, what good?

It is shameful to think of what has been allowed to occur. 40 million people thrown out of work by decree. Trillions in debt saddled onto our children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. It is painful to think on. We are kicking more than just debt down the road. Do we want our kids and grandkids fighting the ideological war for liberty, the one that we should be fighting right now? To have young children during this historic epoch where the social world degenerates rapidly into a primitive totalitarianism, multiplies the shame. We’re allowing a prison to be built that will pull them in, along with their future, their happiness, their very lives. The evil is allowed to bloom because we stand by and do nothing, hoping someone else will. No one is coming to save us. But if you’re breathing, you have a voice. You can add it to others. The rise of the State is not inevitable, even though it wishes you to believe as such.

We have nothing to celebrate today. It should be a day of mourning, a day of shame. But also a day of hope. Liberty can return, but it will take an army of thinkers, writers, activists, planners, and everyday renegades to bring it back. This will not be easy. We have been taken deep into Hell, and there is no easy way out.

“Everyone carries a part of society on his shoulders; no one is relieved of his share of responsibility by others. And no one can find a safe way for himself if society is sweeping towards de­struction. Therefore everyone, in his own interests, must thrust himself vigorously into the intellectual battle. No one can stand aside with unconcern: the interests of everyone hang on the result. Whether he chooses or not, every man is drawn into the great historical struggle, the decisive battle into which our epoch has plunged us.“

-Ludwig Von Mises

The Flock cancer is going metastatic

Posted on      by     

54,000 Flock cameras around the country in January, to 129,000 now. This, despite intense public opposition at every level.

It’s becoming more clear what all the data centers will be used for: to process the data collected by AI surveillance tech.

This tech is being sold as a way to “make us safer”, but we’ve never needed total surveillance to make us safer. We already know who the criminals are. Our problem is arresting them, prosecuting them, and ensuring they remain imprisoned. The answer is not to treat every single citizen as a suspect. We know how this system will be used. We know how it would’ve been used during COVID, we know how it would’ve been used by Biden against Trump supporters, and we know how it will be used during the next manufactured crisis.

While we can theoretically legislatively prohibit Flock use by police, there is nothing to stop private companies from using it. And many already are. Facial recognition is used throughout the retail industry. We saw during the COVID era that private industry is more of a threat to personal liberty and privacy than government, because private industry isn’t constrained by the Constitution. During COVID, government simply told private industry what to do, and they did it, bypassing the legislative process entirely.

 

Why is a massive surveillance apparatus being rolled out almost overnight? Here is my theory: The post-WW2 Boomer generation was the most heavily-propagandized generation in history. Propaganda became a high art, and with the advent of mass media (TV, radio, phones, et cetera) it became very easy to transmit beliefs and realities to Middle America, so much so that agitprop artists could create reality for the vast majority. The propaganda became so ubiquitous, Middle America so saturated with it, that it ceased to be seen as something apart. It was their reality, and formed their minds during crucial phases. With the advent of the internet, Elon’s purchase of X, and more unrestrained flow of alternative sources of information, the Propaganda lost its grip on the American mind. The gatekeepers and manipulators of information see that their reign is at an end. The American mind can no longer be held in thrall, and so they see that new methods of control must be instituted. Hence, total surveillance and control of the rising generation, who can no longer be puppeteered by covert persuasion. The carrot is being discarded for the stick.

Was court shown misleadingly compressed footage of Kirk’s killer on campus?

Posted on      by     

Candace Owens’ release of a very clear picture of Charlie’s supposed killer on UVU campus the day of the shooting shows someone very obviously not Tyler Robinson. He’s not scrawny enough, looks nothing like him. The still image is from a short clip that was previously shown in court, but the clip itself appears to be intentionally distorted to make the individual skinnier, or more like Robinson.

We’re rapidly moving to a scenario where it will be too late to reverse course. The total surveillance infrastructure is being built out at such a rapid pace so that it will all be operational before any organized opposition can be mounted. Then comes the risk of normalization, where everyone has so acclimated to the new environment that no large-scale opposition becomes possible. Only a few pockets of resistance among the general public, all of whom can be easily smeared as whackos, nutjobs, conspiracy theorists, et cetera. If it isn’t stopped now, it will never be stopped.

How much of left-wing politics is based solely on hate?

Posted on      by     

Mackinac island is visually stunning, peaceful, clean, and endlessly charming. So what about it does El-Sayed hate, and what does his smiling hatred of it say about him? Does anyone who could actually feel hatred for such an American Eden deserve to ever serve in our government? What would they do to such a place, if they had the power?
