REPUBLIC REBORN

Well, it’s really the entire Political Class who is combing all of society for evidence of systematic racism, and as a result, they continuously look like fools. Tucker explains:

City leaders currently allowing mobs to rampage freely through their streets, refusing to denounce the violence and chaos, must believe that by doing so the mob will be more quickly satisfied and dissipate. Let them mindlessly tear down statues, destroy and deface property, attack various bystanders caught in the wrong place and time, and hopefully they’ll just go away, is apparently the logic here. But for a violent mob there is no rhyme or reason, there is no satiating it. Rather, the lack of consequences enflames and emboldens it. And it is definitely an ‘it’. A mob is re-barbarization made starkly visible, in the same way that fire is the more violent, rapid, and destructive form of the oxidation process that the rust is also a part of. The punitive, feeble-minded lockdowns conjured into existence powerful forces of what I can only describe as re-barbarization, where primitive human drives awaken from a civilization-induced slumber and run amok. The mob has no intelligence and no goal other than inflicting chaos and destruction upon a modern world that must appear very unnatural to it. If there exists anything in human nature that could be called ‘original sin’, it’s this primitive impulse to drag society back to the Dark Ages, the impulse that is currently allowed free rein under the guise of ‘anti-racism’. But it’s no longer about racism, or police violence, and sadly it appears that the opportunity for real change in police accountability has passed. The voice of the mob is speaking, and it’s the voice of anti-civilization.

The mob is rejecting the modern world, rejecting the very values of equality and liberty that the modern world was built on. And so it tears down monuments to those ideals. But the toppling of statues will never be enough. The mob, being a predictable force of nature, requires atonement via the deaths of flesh and blood human beings. Not merely the many deaths that have already occurred at the hands of the mob, but executions, will follow from the symbolic destruction of property.

But, American citizens won’t let it come to that. Which is why the next phase of this nation’s spiral will manifest in a populist counter reaction to the left-wing mobs. This will not be a good thing, because it will mean that the citizens of this country have lost their confidence in the ability of their own government to put a stop to the left-wing pogrom. A right-wing analogue will emerge, with their own mob and their own leaders. ‘Law and Order’ will be their rallying cry, and it will attract wide support. Leaders will eventually emerge, and center on personalities that more closely resemble Brazil’s Bolsonaro or the Philippines Duterte. This would be a devastating development, and it would be true, populist fascism. Homegrown, as it always is. They’ll be swept into power in order to subdue the left-wing mobs, but once they’re gone, they won’t leave office. The American Strongman will emerge in what will be the final act of a play that began with a trumped up reaction to a phantom illness that will soon be forgotten.

To a certain extent, I’ll play along with the coronavirus farce. I’ll keep my distance, stand on the blue dots in a check-out line. But that’s about as far as I’ll go. Using a freshly sanitized cart is ironically disgusting, as they are usually still wet from whatever chemical brew they’ve been dowsed with. I’ll take nature’s pathogens over sterile toxins any day. I still see people wearing the dangerous N95 masks, suffocating on their own carbon dioxide, as well as the middle-aged crowd scared out of their wits, and I think it’s high time we give up this superstitious fear over a phantom illness that poses a risk only to the very old and immunocompromised. Our sanity is at stake. Shutting down society over a mild infection is something only a hypochondriac would think a wise choice. And the news is apparently brainstorming with those rare people for whom the world outside their homes is a waking nightmare of germs. No, we are done with this charade. Those that want to cower in their homes should be allowed to. But they should have no influence over the lives of others. If they want to play Russian roulette with their lives by injecting a dangerous, untested coronavirus vaccine, let them. But don’t force me to do the same. I place my trust in the real miracle of evolution, the process that has gifted us with our miraculous immune system. We have evolved to handle mild infections and to develop and pass on a natural herd immunity to COVID-19, directly contributing to that evolutionary process. I can think of no act more dangerous than tampering with evolutionary forces, which is what is apparently being suggested with the fast-tracking of an RNA vaccine. Let’s ditch the crazy talk, and remove the crazies from power, before they sanitize us right off a cliff.

De Blasio has the gates to a Jewish playground welded shut: This is why libertarians want to reduce government’s power, because you get people like this who wield it like a kid who finds his dad’s gun.

De Blasio asks contact tracers not to ask COVID-positive individuals if they’ve attended BLM protests: And this reveals several things: that it’s offensive to the privacy and dignity of the person being interrogated, and that COVID isn’t dangerous to the non-eldery adults attending these protests. And really, if anything positive does emerge from the protests, it will be the rapidly-attained herd immunity to COVID-19. These mostly under-50 people will develop natural, life-long immunity without the need for any vaccine or treatment.

Here it is, in all its coalescing rage, the progeny of lockdowns, the inevitable outcome of decimating society through mass house arrest: a rapidly-growing socio-political movement that aims to take power. Tucker Carlson recognizes that obvious fact in this segment. While I don’t agree with much of what he says here, he’s one of the only commentators to point out the obviousness of this organization’s power and influence.

Why destroy innocent lives and livelihoods just because you’re angry? Doesn’t that make you just as bad as the cops who’ve killed innocent blacks?

Statues being torn down, mobs of unemployed youth taking over entire city blocks, the looting and burning stores, incoherent demands being made of government and society, all of this has become an enormous distraction from what should be the primary focus of the protests: dismantling the privileges afforded to police. Qualified immunity, unionization, prosecutors unwilling to prosecute bad cops, outrageous cop pensions, military gear, et cetera, these are all things that could be realistically dismantled in the current climate. It’s the perfect moment, when the entire world is giving its undivided attention to this issue. But the chaos of the mob is clouding this momentum.

Of course, the mob riots are an inevitable evolution of naive lock-downs: the older generation, in their fear, demanded the lock-down of society, which spawned massive unemployment and social fracturing. This essentially generated a dense sawdust cloud of unemployed young people, one waiting for a spark. That spark came in the form of the widely-publicized murder of George Floyd. Too many people are surprised by what has happened, but that is merely because they never fully understood the consequences of shutting down a developed, complex economy. The unemployed youth have nowhere to turn for real leadership, not their political leaders, nor their elders, and so they are turning to chaos. It’s a recipe for a revolution of the French variety, not American. It’s a revolution intent on bringing out the guillotine, for erecting a totalitarian State. It’s a revolution of re-barbarization, whether the participants realize it or not.

Unbelievable.

Police, mayor allow it to happen.

In one sense, it’s like watching a nature documentary, but in this instance we are getting a rare close-up glimpse at the birth of a State in the wild. The mob takes over an area of land, establishes dominance, and then begins constructing a hierarchy among themselves, even if they don’t realize they’re doing it. A primitive form of taxation will follow, as will suppression of dissent. The emergence of this State will follow the time-worn evolutionary course that every other State has, because the seed of the State is inextricably bound up in human nature. Understanding this fact makes it all the more mind-boggling that a State restricted by a constitution has ever existed to any extent.

This will surely rile some libertarian readers of this space: We do not have a choice between a society with a State and one without. The State will always be with us, because it is within us. To prevent the rise of the wild, primitive, totalitarian variety, we purposely create government, imbue it with a monopoly on violence, imprison it, and pray that the bars are strong enough to hold it. It’s the best we can do, and it’s important to realize that that is our only option. That doesn’t mean there’s no room for private security. Most police could easily be replaced by private firms that did nothing other than defend, and who could be more easily held accountable for their actions. The Seattle mob doesn’t want the abolition of police, they want their own gang of armed thugs on patrol, doing their bidding. Just like every State in history.

Talk about worlds colliding. Could you imagine if it had been anti-lockdown protesters doing anything remotely close to this?

These mobs are a Frankenstein’s monster created by continuous saturation of one specific narrative by the corporate media. They’ve been conjured into existence out of the toxic brew of a self-inflicted economic apocalypse, but now can’t be controlled.
