The Gaza slaughter is the end result of victimology

Many on the Right spend much time and energy exposing the professional victims here in the US, who spread a culture of faux victimhood that implies the right of the victim to plunder any and all “oppressors”. Victimhood as a cultural identity is on the rise everywhere, and it isn’t difficult to understand the danger of where this all leads. It leads to vengeance: assault, murder, rape, et cetera. An identity of victimhood is inextricably intertwined with “justice”, which plainly refers to acts of retribution against either a racial class, or socio-economic class. This retributive impulse has always been the animating force behind Marxism.

Where does it all lead? Well, one only has to look at Israel, the nation that has taken victimhood to its logical conclusion. They define themselves purely by how savagely they inflict “justice” on their “oppressors”. It could be said that Zionism has no other definition outside of untethered victimhood. This cultural identity allows them moral carte Blanche to periodically murder thousands of Palestinians, who fill the role of “oppressor” in a never ending, ghoulish stage play that Israel plays out over and over again. They will never move past their status as “victim”, because to do so would mean the end of Israel itself. It would dissipate, disband, as so many cults ultimately do.

Take victimhood as a cultural identity to its limit, and you get Zionism, and Israel. It becomes obvious once you think about it. The logical conclusion of victimhood is holocaust. Now give that a think, but sit down beforehand and your mind quakes in the face of this ultimate irony.

The Gaza genocide will be the bloody bookend of American empire

Israeli Zionism is a degenerate, blindly murderous culture that we are unable to comprehend. Through endless indoctrination, we’re unable to believe they could be so pointlessly inhuman, so vicious in an animalistic way. And yet, we bankroll this ideological malignancy, giving it room and protection to grow and wreak havoc. My prediction is that Israel’s slaughter of Gaza, and the inevitable forced removal of all Palestinians from their homeland, will become the fatal tarnish that ends American dominance. The horror that is unfolding now is being purposely ignored, but the world will have no choice but to face it one day soon, and face the inherent evil that has grown within Israeli culture. And then the entire charade collapses.

Summer soldiers have turned anti-COVIDism into a lame grift

There were people who saw the threat of COVID authoritarianism before it even emerged, but those people were heckled, ignored, abused. It’s a laugh that now, three years after the fact, an entire industry has emerged of lockdown/mask/vax critics who hock their books and go on speaking tours, because now its safe to critique the COVID response. Where was Bret three years ago? Probably cowering in fear, just like Jordan Peterson, Tucker Carlson, and everyone else. Everyone who risked their necks by speaking out will be forgotten, but intensely corny people like Bret will be remembered. This must be how all of human history plays out, and it makes me want to know the unknown renegades who risked their necks and spilled their blood so the Washingtons and Jeffersons could have their pictures minted on coins.

Our nature is both the originator of our rights and of the State

I’m not sure if this point has been made in this way before. We have certain rights by our very nature, that no man, and no god, can rightfully take away. But the greatest oppressor and violator of our rights, the State, also stems from our nature. We flourish when we are free, we create something new under the sun. Our nature demands freedom to reach our potential, and we feel a violation at every restriction of our freedom. At the very same time, and this is the most crucial point, we feel an impulse to control others. We value our freedom while resenting its use by others. We disapprove of how they make use of their freedom, and so we work to restrict it.

This simply is human history in a nutshell.

The trick is to enshrine into law as bulletproof a defense of liberty for those targeted. A general defense. And a consistently general defense moves to allowing every voluntary interaction between consenting adults, and disallowing any and all violations of another person. This is the libertarian philosophy of liberty. No real need for massive tomes that go unread, or even long-winded essays. Presenting the philosophical argument as succinctly as possible allows for anyone who reads it to then ponder it, and unfold it in their own mind.

But where libertarians go wrong, and most other political philosophers, is that within in lies the blueprint for the totalitarian state. We are genetically predisposed to violate the liberty of others. And we are genetically predisposed to build the superstructure to perform this violation on a society-wide scale. Thus have we become Irony’s ultimate victims: we, a species unique in its need for freedom, and unique in its desire to enslave.

And so, to mitigate the emergence of the State, we erect a government. We, or some far distance forefathers, deliberately invoke this inner demon, and then bind it with as carefully crafted incantations as we can muster. The demon always breaks through, with time, but we at least try. The alternative is to allow the demon to emerge fully formed at a time of its choosing. That route leads to Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, Maoist China, the Khmer Rouge, and the mindlessness of prehistoric virgin sacrifices, blood drinking, Sun-worshipping. We create government because we understand the State, because we understand ourselves.

The world’s most moral army

Real tough guys huh? Remember that the entire Islamic world is watching this same footage, it’s being saved for posterity. No peace will ever exist for Israel, and it’s their own damn fault.

The ability to defend oneself makes others behave

These morons don’t feel “unsafe”, they feel frustrated that this man could effectively defend himself if they decided to attack him, surround his car, or harm him in a myriad other ways that these leftists have proven themselves capable of over the past three years.  They’re forced to have a civil conversation where they don’t have their trump card of violence.
