Donald Trump officially has enough delegates to become the Republican nominee:
It's official - Trump reaches the magic number of Republican delegates to clinch nomination. Donald Trump now has 1,238 delegates in the latest Associated Press tally of primary results and the intentions of the other party delegates. Trump was put over the top in the Associated Press delegate count by a small number of the party's unbound delegates who told the AP they would support him at the convention.

Options = Instability: Another Heartiste Maxim Externally Validated By SCIENCE!

by CH

Options = Instability. A Chateau maxim as universal and relevant to life satisfaction as the famed CH aphorism Diversity + Proximity = War. The O=I theory was introduced in this original press post:

Where you have options, you have trouble sticking by one person. A man dating a girl (or girls) will feel on top of the world and suddenly all those single women traipsing around the city look like much easier targets to approach. His loins will quiver with excitement. A woman transplanted from a less populated region of the country to the big city will become enthralled with all the extra attention from men who are probably much better at playing the game than the men she left back home. Her ego will quiver with expectation.

…and fleshed out here, with accompanying scientific confirmation:

[T]here is an inherent sex difference in the destabilizing force of increased options. A man with more options than his partner is a less destabilizing force to his relationship than is a woman with equally more options than her partner. This phenomenon results from the greater hypergamous drive of women, who are less satisfied than are men with sub-par lovers, and from the biological reality that risk of female infidelity is a graver threat to relationship harmony than is risk of male infidelity for which there is no chance of “reverse cuckolding”.

Think of the relationship permutations this way:

Man with options + woman with fewer options = man with peace of mind and wandering eye + happy but anxious woman + lovingly prepared home-cooked meals.

Woman with options + man with fewer options = unhappy woman with wandering eye + happy but anxious man + microwaved dinners.

Man with options + woman with options = stable relationship. Both are happy and infidelity or rupture risks are minimized.

Man with few options + woman with few options = stable relationship. Both are unhappy yet infidelity or rupture risks are still minimized.

I don’t need my knob slobbed by ¡SCIENCE!, but I won’t turn down a freebie blowie if 💋SCIENCE💋 just can’t get enough of my Renaissance Meat. So once again, to the lab-coats (via VIP commentator chris):

Scientific proof that options creates instability.

In the interests of weeding out the mathematical complexity, there were three values calculated. Assuming you were taking the survey, they would correspond to (1) how well your actual partner matched your ideal (2) what percent of possible real mates out in the world are better overall fits, and (3) how much more or less desirable you are to others, relative to your partner. These values were then plugged into a regression predicting relationship satisfaction. As it turned out, in the first study (N = 260), the first value – how well one’s partner matched their ideal – barely predicted relationship satisfaction at all (ß = .06); by contrast, the number of other potential people who might make better fits was a much stronger predictor (ß = -.53), as was the difference in relative mate value between the participant and their partner (ß = .11). There was also an interaction between these latter two values (ß = .21). As the authors summarized these results:

“Participants lower in mate value than their partners were generally satisfied regardless of the pool of potential mates; participants higher in mate value than their partners became increasingly dissatisfied with their relationships as better alternative partners became available”

Implied in the CH Options = Instability formula is the premise that the available options are desirable; options don’t mean much if what you have now is decidedly better than the alternatives. Few people will trade up from a filet mignon to a burger, so the existence of millions of attainable burgers doesn’t register as a menu of options to our subconscious minds if we’re currently dining on filet mignon. (If you’ve dated a really pretty girl, you’ll know that, at least for a while, the world of women outside her presence seems to recede into invisibility. Some call that love.)

Instability follows from options when the options are instinctively perceived as worthwhile substitutes. From this truism, we can deduce the effectiveness of a powerful Game principle: Dread. If you are a man who is, or is subjectively perceived to be, lower in sexual market value than your girlfriend/wife, then you can help stabilize your relationship and increase the happiness of you and your partner if you ACT LIKE you are a man with many desirable and attainable options you’d trade up to if circumstances allowed.

That is, it’s sexy to act more like an untrustworthy man than a trustworthy man. Why? Because women LOVE LOVE LOVE men who are loved by other desirable women. And an untrustworthy man signals his desirability to many beautiful women. This principle is why it’s so common to see physically unattractive men dating hot babes “out of their league” strut like a cuntquistador who could drop his current lover on a dime if she ever gave him trouble. Platitudists may not appreciate this facet of human sexual behavior, but it’s real and it works.

CH Maxim #77: If a man acts as if his life is full of willing women, then women will be more willing company.

Why The Alt-Right Is Kicking Ass And Taking Names

by CH

One reason (among many) the alt-right is burrowing into the softcore ids of shitlibs and cuckservatives and laying realtalk larvae that will chew its way out through their stunted amygdalas is that the alt-right is an amorphous, spontaneous consortium of happy hoodlums who by their nature can’t be purged, thus depriving the Hivemind of the best weapon it has to maintain their equalist anti-White status quo.

Digging deeper to discover the psychological mechanisms which facilitate the alt-right’s rise, we will find that alt-righters, taken as a whole, follow a few of Robert Greene’s “power laws“. Specifically:

Law 17: Keep Others in Suspended Terror: Cultivate an Air of Unpredictability

Humans are creatures of habit with an insatiable need to see familiarity in other people’s actions. Your predictability gives them a sense of control. Turn the tables: Be deliberately unpredictable. Behavior that seems to have no consistency or purpose will keep them off- balance and they will wear themselves out trying to explain your moves. Taken to an extreme, this strategy can intimidate and terrorize.

The dank meme machine that constitutes a significant stockpile of the alt-right’s rhetorical arsenal is the very definition of unpredictability. Could a cuckservative have had any prior intuition that he would be rightfully smeared as a cuck? Not a one of them saw it coming. That meme is so powerful the cucks STILL haven’t mustered an effective defense against it. And it’s been in circulation for months.

What about Pepe the green frog? Indescribably funny, totally out of left field… and brutally sadistic as an avatar of weaponized ridicule of SJWs and the Mewlers’ Row of Misfits.

Law 33: Discover Each Man’s Thumbscrew

Everyone has a weakness, a gap in the castle wall. That weakness is usually insecurity, an uncontrollable emotion or need; it can also be a small secret pleasure. Either way, once found, it is a thumbscrew you can turn to your advantage.

Many shitlibs have visible thumbscrews, ripe for twisting, but only to sadists who are not hamstrung by cucky PC (alt-right again fits the bill). The shitlib ids are, in fact, so easy to expose and rub raw that it’s a testament to the sheer cowardice, venality and stupidity of establishment cons that they couldn’t land even a glancing blow over the course of decades against their putative political enemies.

Law 39: Stir Up Waters to Catch Fish

Anger and emotion are strategically counterproductive. You must always stay calm and objective. But if you can make your enemies angry while staying calm yourself you gain a decided advantage. Put your enemies’ off-balance: Find the chink in their vanity through which you can rattle them and you hold the strings.

Law #39 is also a Game tactic (i.e., state control, or conventionally known as grace under pressure). This law is essentially the Law of Trolling, something which the alt-right has mastered, if not created. Maintaining composure while delivering your shivs drives your foe into impotent spasms of defensiveness or juvenile rage-quitting.The alt-right has knocked leftoids and cucks alike off-balance. They are reduced to flailing futilely against an enemy in the dark.

Finally, we move on to what I believe is the Power Law most responsible for the alt-right’s successful occupation of enemy minds:

Law 48: Assume Formlessness

By taking a shape, by having a visible plan, you open yourself to attack. Instead of taking a form for your enemy to grasp keep yourself adaptable and on the move. Accept the fact that nothing is certain and no law is fixed. The best way to protect yourself is to be as fluid and formless as water; never bet on stability or lasting order. Everything changes.

Keep the shitlibs and cucks guessing. Be mentally agile. Make it hard for you to be pigeon-holed. Move swiftly and surely to new topics and rhetorical lines of attack before foes have the time and floppy-wristed back-up to fully digest the nature of their vivisected egos and to mount a counter-attack. (Trump is a pro at this.)

When shitlibs can’t get a handle on you, when they are reduced to constantly playing Wile. E Coyote to your happy-go-lucky Road Runner, they must resort to tired clichés pulled from the B-sides of their sophism repertoire. Then they appear lame and destructible; no longer the invulnerable, imperial force of culture standard-bearers. Their thermal exhaust ports are now exposed, begging for a shitlord with half a sack to drop a proton torpedo down their smug uptalk chutes.

The alt-right is winning because it follows these power laws, it has attracted warrior and poet rebels, and

most importantly

they have that one defining quality

that special “something”

that the cucks, GOPers, and establishment cons never had…

ZFG.

The last two years: In retrospect

by Brooke Hazelgrove


Hi. You could be just reading my blog for the first time, or you could have read all of my posts, or you could have seen that I posted a new entry on my Facebook and followed it through because sometimes words come out of my mouth and sometimes they are interesting.

This is a little bit of a reflection on the last two years, those being 2014, and 2015. If you've been reading my posts for a while, you'll probably notice that that's about when the regularity of writing on Gone Aerial started going out the window, and there's a few reasons why.

I figured it was time to write something again. I've always had more to say, but when the jobs you're working have you either physically or mentally exhausted at the end of the day, there's not a lot left for writing. Still.

Here's a brief rundown of the last two years.

I finished Uni at the end of 2013, and my hopeless optimism thought that finding a job straight after WAVE of 2014 would be easy. I wanted to work after I finished uni, because I knew I didn't have a lot of life experience and I probably needed it. When I hit 22 in 2013, I realised that I was the same age as Mum when she'd gotten married, and it was probably time to start thinking of myself and acting like an adult.

What followed was a steep learning curve. I threw resumes at anything that moved. I picked up work in a local Chinese restaurant, but it wasn't enough hours or income to support myself, so I started falling behind on rent, and eating my way through the strange cans of food my Pop had given me a few years before, because all I could afford to buy was milk and apples and mi goreng. I'd fill up my car, not knowing if I'd be able to buy more fuel when I ran out.

This went on for a bit more than a month, before all the forms I'd submitted to request a bit of welfare subsidence kicked in. I was also helped out by my parents and some folks from church. Even then, there wasn't much of a rest. I'd spend a few nights a week working at the restaurant and the rest of the week, I pretty much lived at the Hub - the warehouse in Broadmeadow that doubles as my church's office/headquarters/place for things that aren't Sunday meetings. There, I continued applying for jobs.

I can't remember how many I applied for. There was a lot, and sometimes I'd get a rejection letter, but most of the time I'd never hear back. At this stage, I was pretty grateful for Centrelink, even if there were a lot of forms to fill out. I was able to buy food. I could pay rent. When the registration of my car came around, I was able to do that myself - something that really counted when you consider that I was trying to be a responsible adult.

About halfway through the year, I picked up some contracted writing work, and this eventually turned into my second job - writing blog posts for a marketing firm. Once this piece of information comes into play, you can kind of see why I didn't do a lot of writing of my own material - it's a little hard to write all day and then be motivated to come home and write some more.

So that was 2014. There were some hard bits, and some good bits, and some other pretty important lessons learned, but I'll get to those in a minute.

2015 has also been a pretty turbulent year, but for different reasons.

Because I had had a lot of spare time in the year prior, I'd started a few different types of ministry. I had time, so why not? Problem was, I was nearly working full time hours on top of part time hours spent in ministry.

I got sick, and stayed physically sick, for about three months. It was debilitating on my body and my mind, and I burned out. Recovery took longer, and I have to check in even now and still consider if I'm back to fully operational.

Burning out was problematic for more than just that reason though - it opened up a whole new can of worms, one which was marked 'mental health'. Although I don't know if there's anything in particular that has become my problem, I can testify that the inside of my head has not been a pleasant place to be at times during this year.

But, there were still really good things, and really challenging things, and things to learn from.

At the moment, my hours have changed, for both places, for a variety of reasons. Things are definitely going to change next year, not in the least because I'm planning on moving out of my house. Living alone is fine if you are mentally stable. Which I am not. So, some housemates are in order. I'm a little anxious about how things will go, not in the least because I've lived by myself for the last two years, so my house skills have gotten a little lax. But. Housemates. That's important. Need stability.

Where does this lead to? There is indeed a purpose for this blog post - not just telling you how my last two years have been. There's been a few hard-learned, but important-learned lessons I've picked up along the way, and thought they were worth sharing. Hence, post. But like, I don't want it to be like the posts I write for work, so it's not a numerically listed thing. But, uh.

The Rest Of The World Cares Less About You Than Your Lecturers And Teachers

I'm talking secular, working world. My church body has been highly valued and I'm so very thankful to them for looking after me. But the others?
When you're in school, your teachers have some degree of care about you. In uni, if you build a good rapport with your lecturers and tutors, they'll generally want you to pass a subject.
The same isn't true of the working world. The manager you just talked to doesn't know squat about you, and doesn't have a reason to care about what you can do unless you give them a reason.


It's Easy To Feel Entitled

And why shouldn't we? If you're a first world kid, growing up in a first world, cushy life, it's easy to feel like you're owed a job that you like. Whether or not you can find one of those jobs is another matter. I work in the service industry and you will never find another job where the people you meet will feel like making your life miserable is well within their rights and duties as a customer. It's even easy to try and use my sense of entitlement to try and rise above all of that. "I've got two tertiary qualifications, therefore I have the right to a better job," kind of thing. It...it just doesn't work like that.


Some Things Are Just Hard Work

In the last few weeks of my uni study, my church sat the students who were graduating down over dinner and we talked about what life would be like as a worker - the things we'd need to be aware of, and the ways we'd be challenged. One of the most helpful things I was told was "The first two years will just be hard work". They were right. No shortcuts. No cheat codes. Just a lot of honey chicken and oil burns.


Nobody Else Has It Together Either

I'm now a worker. I still have nights where I don't have enough energy to do anything. Weekends are a joke. But, I was raised with this crazy impossible standard where the things are supposed to be clean and I'm supposed to have it all together. After all, I'm the oldest, and I'm supposed to set and example and not be a bitter disappointment and blah blah blah. No. Nobody else my age seems to have it together. Which is a bit of a relief, because it's honest and it's real and it makes me able to admit my fears and weaknesses to other people, and ask for their help, because there's a lot of things I cannot do by myself.


Take One Day At A Time

Rolling with it is something I've had to get used to. It's not my favourite, but it's helped me see beyond the insurmountable hill of responsibility and just get down to putting one foot in front of another to keep going. If I can keep moving forward, then things have the opportunity to get better.


Celebrate The Small Things

You found your keys? Throw both arms in the air and yell in adulation. You survived another shift? Give yourself a pat on the back. There's still a lot of things I can't do. So when something goes right for a change, no matter how small, I remember that it's a good thing, and that we should celebrate victories, no matter how small.


Set Some Boundaries

This is important.


Remember To Rest

So is this. Like I said earlier, secular world isn't obligated to care for your shocking day prior. They only want to know that you can work. I have one night a week where I am home, and that's because I vigilantly protect it as The Evening I Am Home To Rest. If you're a people-pleaser, it's easy to keep saying yes to things until you collapse. I've done that once, and I don't ever want to do it again. So, make sure that your lines in the sand on what you can do, and what you can't do, are drawn, and maintain them, not because you are selfish, but because you need to keep functioning.


Remember The Gospel

As a Christian, the gospel is what keeps me going. Knowing and remembering and dwelling on it is what means I can come back for another round of work even though I was in tears over work the night before.
It's easy to gloss over it - be like, 'yeah, nah, I know this. I need some deeper theological truth to look at'.

No. Noob.

The gospel is where we start and end. Theology only serves to enhance our understanding of the gospel - of knowing and understanding that here is God, the creator of the universe, who would send his Son Jesus to bear my sins and failures to bring me back into a right relationship with him and make me into something better.


Know Your Value

Here's the kicker. I end up with this problem where I feel like my value is attached to what I can do. Or what I am. Problem is, when you take away my capacity for doing things, or make me feel like I can't do anything, the perceived value is going to go down the gurgler pretty quick.

But, here's the thing, and it fits into the gospel. Nothing I can do can attribute to my own value. (Therefore, I can end up feeling like I have no value).
But, the Creator God trades his Son, who has Infinite Value, for my life.
And here's the thing about this trade, about this purchase.

You don't pay for things you don't want. And you don't pay more for something you think has less value.

So even though intrinsically, I have no value, my life - my future, and my eternity - have been purchased with the most expensive thing there is.

Therefore, I am valued at Infinite, by the King of the Universe.

And he's the biggest power there is. There's not another power, bigger, who can say otherwise, or usurp that authority or purchase. This is what happens when you start dealing in absolutes - either things are or they are not.

I still have problems with remembering that I have value on a regular basis. When you're taught that everything else is more important than you, this can be a hard thing to shake. Which is why I keep coming back to the gospel, and why I have to keep remembering that I have value because of the gospel.

So yeah. that's where I'm at. Hopefully next year will be easier, (although I have my doubts). I'll just have a little more experience, and a better understanding of the grace that is sufficient for keeping me going.

I hope your new years are bright, and full of promise.
Happy New Year, guys.

Spot The Cuck

by CH

Background. The story is nominally about Germans “adopting” Syrian refugees into their homes, but in reality it’s about German women with the thousand cock stare welcoming Syrian schlong into their godless holes and effeminate German betas sitting legs-crossed in the corner pretending to be oblivious to their literal cuckolding. I mean, look at the mischievous smile and crazy eyes on this woman. She’s got that lit-up face that says this might be the first time in her life she’s felt excited thinking about getting fucked through the floor boards.

As for the kraut cuck, he’s looking into the middle distance trying to beat back the bad thoughts creeping up on him with happy thoughts of all the unctuous flattery he anticipates from his pozzed social circle.

Germany: seventy years to go from sheisselord fearsome to scrotally fallow. What a ride.

***

For a migrant from a war-torn hellscape, that Syrian looks surprisingly well-fed and robust. Not at all like the half-starved and frightened widows and orphans president Butt Naked claimed filled the ranks of these refugees.

The Illusion of Choice aka DuhMockRuh$€¥

Promo for Global Bankster's Wars - Episode III: A New Hope


"If voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal." - Emma Goldman

There is nothing really new under the sun. The names may change, but the games THEY play are still the same.

Ever since the Institutionalization of Bankster Usury as the centralized organ of economic control over the nation, all of politics and the process of mass media campaigning has been nothing more than an elaborate game of charades...an interactive advertisement for the Company Store to keep we the sheeple plugged into and fully invested in maintaining the status quo of the system.


Consider the paraphrasings of these common maxims regarding history: "History is written by the winners," and "Those who fail to learn from the failures of history, are destined to repeat them." Oh, and let's not forget this one: "The definition of insanity is repeating the same behavior over and over again, each time expecting a different outcome."

"Official" history is written by the conquerors, so that they can prevent the masses of people from discovering the true causes of their past failures that lead to their historical defeat, so that they can continue to support and buy into the status quo of cyclical insanity that is our deliberately designed modern society.

And just what constitutes this cycle of insanity? Debase the currency, debauch the culture and corrupt the common morality to destroy the family and invite voluminous immigration of foreigners into every corner of the land to dispossess the citizenry of their birthright. Rinse and repeat as many times as necessary until the Global Tyranny is achieved. (Side note: I have sympathies for the rising sentiment of White Nationalist neo-reaction on teh Interwebz and in teh MAndrosphere, despite my minority heritage, as everything they are trying to prevent happening to their race, has already happened to those of us of Native Hawaiian descent. We've been conquered, marginalized in our own homeland and miscegenated into near extinction. THEY got the same plans for all you crackers.)

Never forget that the social engineers who have constructed our brave new world order are masters of manufacturing consensus and implementing gradual cultural revolution via the Hegelian Dialectic.

Thesis + Anti-Thesis = Synthesis.

Since THEY use the Hegelian Dialectic as their favorite option in their playbook, THEY know precisely how to reverse engineer (in the short term) so as to achieve their overall objectives.

Consider the case of the Brave New World Order's 20th Century Emmanuel Goldstein Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, good ole Uncle Adolph.


Pre-selection + hypergamy FTW!

Mein Kampf, was the perfect treatise for identifying the problems that plagued Germany in the first half of the 20th century, and it offered all of the counter-measures and solutions for fixing them. And lo and behold, once he gained power, he did exactly as he said he would and turned a moribund, demoralized, morally debauched and near bankrupt Germany into a Global economic and military superpower just in time to commence the next installment of the Global Bankster's World Wars Trilogy - Episode II. And what precisely is it that he did that he wrote about in that infamous tome?

1) Get rid of the usurious banking system and issue interest free currency backed by the goods and services provided by the German people.

2) Deport any and all immigrants (it wasn't just the Jews) not dedicated or compatible to upholding and promoting the National interests and the promotion of a common ethos and morality that upholds and promotes pride and patriotism in the culture and nation at large.

3) Get rid of all cultural influences that promote the destruction of the family and reinstill patriotic pride in a defeated and subjugated people.

One of the first thing's Hitler did upon gaining power, was to outlaw the Weimar Republic's bustling sex industry. The Nazis shut down all of the brothels, burlesque theaters and live sex shows and ordered all of the smut books and magazines burned once he gained power. Pictures and accounts of Nazi book burnings are always cited as the worst examples of Government censorship...but note that we were never told what books were actually being burnt and why. At least I never was when I was going through my own institutional education indoctrination.

Note a few of the guidelines for what books the Nazi's targeted for burning:

* The works of traitors, emigrants and authors from foreign countries who believe they can attack and denigrate the new German (H.G. Wells, Rolland).

* The literature of Marxism, Communism and Bolshevism.

* Pacifist literature.

* Literature with liberal, democratic tendencies and attitudes, and writing supporting the Weimar Republic (Rathenau, Heinrich Mann).

* All historical writings whose purpose is to denigrate the origin, the spirit and the culture of the German Volk, or to dissolve the racial and structural order of the Volk, or that denies the force and importance of leading historical figures in favor of egalitarianism and the masses, and which seeks to drag them through the mud (Emil Ludwig).

* Books that advocate "art" which is decadent, bloodless, or purely constructivist (Grosz, Dix, Bauhaus, Mendelsohn).

* Writings on sexuality and sexual education which serve the egocentric pleasure of the individual and thus, completely destroy the principles of race and Volk (Hirschfeld).

* All writings that ridicule and belittle the state and its institutions, or that attack or question its moral foundation.

* All writings that attack or attempt to dissolve the order of the community of the Volk and its moral foundation, specifically those against the race and biological requirements of a healthy Volk (marriage, family, etc.).

* All writings that ridicule, belittle or besmirch the Christian religion and its institution, faith in God, or other things that are holy to the healthy sentiments of the Volk.

So....the Nazi's burned all the books they identified and recognized as corrosive influences like liberalism, communism, Marxism, Bolshevism, atheism, cultural nihilism, as well as any attacks on sexual morality and Christian religion and faith in God, their culture and their National health.

Given the decline in native birth rates and the lack of cultural cohesion and narcissism-promoting atomization of our porn saturated culture and complete lack of any sort of culturally enforced sexual morality or sanctity of marriage and family, the idea of cleansing our media and institutions of such corrupting filth doesn't sound so outlandish to my conspiracy-prone mind any more. I once thought (as I was programmed to) the idea of book burnings and censorship were the ultimate intellectual atrocity....but given where we are in the present day, I'm no longer so sure about that.

But that's neither here nor there, since there does not exist at present a single politician or party - including Trump - who is suggesting such a moral and ethical cleansing of media and entertainment today. 

Now, out here in the fever swamps of conspiritard land, many folks commonly accept that Hitler was an  actual double agent for the Global Bankster Conspiracy whose primary purpose was to lead Germany into total defeat and destruction.

Objective mainstream historians and military strategists and tacticians who have studied the end of World War II have always noted the insanity of Hitler's orders that were directly responsible for Germany suffering utter defeat. The commonly accepted explanations for his disastrous orders are usually attributed to drug addictions and/or megalomania-inspired denial.

I believe the idea that he was a double agent whose sole purpose was to engineer Germany's defeat and total subjugation to the Global Bankster Cartel is certainly plausible - especially when you consider the final outcome of his time as an actor on the world stage.

Now with Donald Trump, it looks to me like the same play from the same playbook is being called up once again. A populist political maverick espousing Nationalist sentiments and offering to reverse many of the aspects of the cultural marxists long march through Western Civilization.

In the scope of the grand narrative of controlled opposition and carefully revised history, figures like Hitler and Trump are the perfect pressure relief valves for the masses who are starting to awaken to the existential threats the cultural marxists, SJWs, leftist progressives and cuckservatives represent. As opposition grows for the support of systemic usury, cultural debauchery and promotion of immigration as genocide on a nation and culture, the best answer for those who have constructed this deliberately designed system is to co-opt and take control of the opposition and lead it where THEY want it to go.

For this purpose, Trump appears to fit the bill quite nicely.


Future CEO of USA Inc. 2016

I readily concede that I may certainly be mistaken in my assessment of the Donald. But the way the world seems to be going right now certainly seems to be aligning up for the the third and final act in the Global Bankster's World Wars Trilogy....and Trump playing the pied piper to channel the growing discontent of the increasing number of people who are awakening to the realities of our system and disillusioned with politics as usual, sure seems like a perfectly timed glimmer of hope to keep we the sheeple invested in the system and continuing to assent to our enslavement.

Now I have no evidence for this conclusion, but what I do have is a basic premise - you don't reach the level of wealth, fame and notoriety that Trump has in the past three decades without being connected and working with/for the highest echelons of the establishment. He talks a good game about immigration, deportation and restoring the economy...but has he bothered to address the root of all the corruption he is purportedly campaigning to fix?

As far as I'm concerned, until you get an honest to goodness, real deal politician running on a platform to end the Company Store's usury cartel monopoly, it's all just window dressings and bread and circus distractions.

If indeed those that count the ballots of the 2016 Presidential Election declare The Donald as the next President, look for the millions of sheeple being lead to the slaughter of World War once again. Throw in the fact that the Obama regime just announced that all teh Womynz are now eligible for all combat positions, and we now have the makings of an equal opportunity culling for both sexes!

Afterall, what better way is there for the Banksters 2Big2Fail to achieve their number one goal inscribed in stone - MAINTAIN HUMANITY UNDER 500,000,000 IN PERPETUAL BALANCE WITH NATURE - than another World War?


And on the chance that I'm wrong, and Trump is actually who he portrays himself to be?


In that case, I sure hope he has trustworthy and loyal personal security, because if he is legitimately running on restoring American Nationalism and derailing the plans of the power's that be, he'll be getting the same treatment as Lincoln, Kennedy and any other political figure that did things THEY do not approve of.

The American Dream: 21st Century Serfdom

by Keoni Galt



From the SpearheadFiles

Originally Published on July 24, 2010


Go to school.

Get good grades.

Go to college.

Get a career.

Buy a nice car.

Buy a big house.

Go on many luxury vacations.

It can all be yours for the taking…just sign your name on the dotted line at every step of the way, and you too can have your very own version of the American Dream.

This is supposedly the keys to happiness and success and achieving “a better standard of living than our parents.”

It’s a grand lie, designed to get the average person to pursue this dream so as to enslave themselves into the system…a benign, subversive system of hidden serfdom.

Welcome to debt slavery.

And who are our Feudal Overlords?

The bankers.

And how do they exactly trap us into forced servitude for their profit?

The twin tools of Fractional Reserve Banking and Fiat Currency.

Wanna start a business?

Take out a business start up loan!

How do you pay for the overhead of running your business? Here’s a business credit account!

Wanna buy a house?

Here’s a 30 year mortgage…and don’t forget your mortgage insurance plan, so in case you are injured or laid off, you won’t have to make your payments for up to one whole year! (Gee, you bankers are just SO generous!).

Wanna get an education?

Here’s a student loan that will take you 20 years to pay off after you’ve graduated and still can’t find a job during the current recession.

Understand that our modern economy is based not on MONEY…but on DEBT. An obligation to promise to paying the bankers – WHO DID NOTHING MORE THAN TYPE A NUMBER INTO A COMPUTER IN THEIR BANK LEDGER SHEET PROGRAM AND – VOILA! – you too can sign up for 21st century serfdom to achieve the “American Dream!”

But don’t look at the Bankers in your local neighborhood bank as your Feudal overlord…he’s just a mid-level overseer of the Lord’s vast estates.

See, his bank, in turn, has to borrow a fraction of their funds from the central banking system so that they can turn around and obligate YOU in your pursuit of the “American Dream.”

Does this sound outlandish or confusing to you?

Let’s analyze this in as simplified terms possible:

Fiat currency = money backed by nothing more than the value it has printed on it. Because it is not backed by a substantial commodity, it is in essence an agreed upon fiction…in which parties exchanging fiat currency for goods or services agree to the value of that currency. Now, because fiat currency is only worth what the issuing institution says it is, there is absolutely NO check on that institution arbitrarily printing up more of it whenever they feel like it. In essence, fiat currency allows unlimited “printing” power.

However, most people think that the Federal Reserve prints the nations money supply and distributes the currency to the banks to circulate throughout the economy. What the Fed prints and distributes is but a fraction of the so-called “money” supply. (More like the “credit enslavement ratio.”)

Fractional reserve lending means a bank need only hold approximately 10% of money in an account at any time. So if you deposit $100 into an account, the bank need only hold $10 in reserve and lend out $90. This doesn’t sound so bad, right? Except that’s not how they do it. The bank takes your $100 and puts it on their assets side of their ledger. They now have 10% of a $1000 reserve requirement. So now they can turn around and get your fellow debt slave to sign up for a used car loan of $1000. In this way, $900 of fiat currency is “created” by the click of a banker’s mouse and your signature on the loan forms dotted line.

Ahhh, but it doesn’t end their either. See, the bank calculates it’s “reserve” by including all promissory notes, all credit accounts as “assets” which allows them to “create” even more fiat currency at the click of a mouse.
That $1000 loan ( which originally came from that first $100 deposit) has paperwork in which the loan taker is obligated to repay at interest over a set period of time. For the sake of simplicity, let’s just say that at the end of the terms of agreement, after adding up the interest and the principal, the debtor will have ended up paying back $1500.

Before the $1000 debtor even issues a single payment, the bank now has $1500 promissory note…which they than account for as a $1500 asset…which is 10% of a $15,000 reserve level.
Along comes Joe Blow the entrepreneur, who wants to start an internet porn business. He needs 15 grand to start up, so he goes and gets a loan from the same bank.

After signing his name on the dotted line, he now has a loan that when all is said and done, will gain the bank $20,000…which of course, is now a bank “asset” that is now a 10% reserve level for $200,000.
Here comes the next guy, and he wants to buy a house for $200,000…so he signs up for a 30 year mortgage….

Are you starting to get the picture about how fiat currency and fractional reserve lending actually work? From an initial $100 of actual cash from a bank depositor, a bank was able to leverage a 6-month $1500 debt obligation from one worker; a 5-year, 20,000 start-up debt obligation from a wannabe Larry Flynt; and a 30 year, $200,000 obligation from would-be homeowner. What started out as $100 of cold, hard cash from a single depositor, turned into $235,000 of owed debt servitude over the course of many years by three other people.

This is precisely why the credit card companies (i.e. the huge, National Banks) are so eager to sign everyone up for credit cards, and they really don’t care if you max them out and are unable to pay them back. Your $20,000 credit card bill, while it exists on their ledgers as current and not in default (it takes you not making any payments for months on end before it becomes “default”), that $20,000 figure is a potential $200,000 reserve loan to some other would-be debt serf.

All of these people, pursuing some aspect of the American Dream, obligated to the bankers who did nothing more than click a mouse and get the unknowing serfs to sign their name on the dotted line. Oh, and note what happens when a home "owner” serf defaults on his home loan, and the bank forecloses. They’ve now turned their fictionally created “fiat currency” into a tangible, real asset – the seized home.

In this way, our Feudal overlords send fiat currency downwards, while the real wealth moves upwards to them – the class of people who have the power to “create” money.

Now some caveats here – this is a very very simplified explanation for how fractional reserve lending and fiat currency have ensnared the vast majority of the country into unwitting, financial serfdom. Of course there are many variations, and all sorts of complicating factors…but the general overview is a fairly accurate summation of the system’s basic function.

This is precisely why inflation has occurred, devaluing the US Dollar exponentially ever since the Federal Reserve system was instituted in 1913. 1929% inflation since 1913. {This was the percentage when this post was originally published at The Spearhead in 2010. As of 2015, it now stands at 2275%!} As money continually gets “created” by these corrupt banking practices, it puts more and more “money” into circulation, devaluing the purchasing power over time.

99% of us in America are in some way, shape or form, a serf for the bankers, because they have the power to “create” money out of thin air…by creating a debt obligation for which you must labor to pay off over the course of your working life.

And all these bankers did was click on the mouse and get you to sign on the dotted line.

With fiat currency working in tandem with fractional reserve lending, and we now have the means of ensuring that almost ALL business endeavors, all personal consumption choices, and almost all manners of subsistence are essentially done via debt to the bankers.

Remember the old saying…”He who has the gold, makes the rules?”

The new one is “He who prints the fractional-reserve, fiat currency enslaves the fools!”

Now get back to work! You owe it to our Feudal Overlords!

Notable Commentary from the Original Post

Well said Hawaiian Libertarian. This was spelled out in Carroll Quigleys books in the early 60′s (The anglo-american establishment). As long as the bankers are in charge we will remain Slaves.


Paul Elam July 24, 2010 at 12:12

Exceptional and well articulated. I wish that more of these articles were in mainstream, but I fear the same forces that prevent Welmer from being featured in the NY Times are at play here.

You are writing against the people who own the system that is enslaving everyone.


The Contrarian Expatriate July 24, 2010 at 12:21

True indeed. I talked about the same issue in my last video. Unfortunately, the forces of retail consumption are too powerful to convince Americans to save.

US dollars are not the worst way to save so long a smattering of gold, silver and other currencies are in the mix.


Epoche* July 24, 2010 at 13:01

here is a line about slavery/serfdom from a conservative theorist Dr Kenneth Minogue:

"It is this element of dehumanization that has produced what I am calling “the servile mind.” The charge of servility or slavishness is a serious one. It emerges from the Classical view that slaves lacked the capacity for self-movement and had to be animated by the superior class of masters. They were creatures of impulse and passion rather than of reason. Aristotle thought that some people were “natural slaves.” In our democratic world, by contrast, we recognize at least some element of the “master” (which means, of course, self-managing autonomy) in everyone.

Indeed, in our entirely justified hatred of slavery, we sometimes think that the passion for freedom is a constitutive drive of all human beings. Such a judgment can hardly survive the most elementary inspection of history. The experience of both traditional societies and totalitarian states in the twentieth century suggests that many people are, in most circumstances, happy to sink themselves in some collective enterprise that guides their lives and guarantees them security. It is the emergence of freedom rather than the extent of servility that needs explanation."

Epoche* July 24, 2010 at 13:06

It is ironic that you mention serfdom, medieval serfs didnt pay as much taxes as a man does under a modern welfare state. (Not to mention men paying child support). If we are to believe numerous various writers it was understood that men under serfdom would pay a maximum of 30 percent of the agricultural product to the lord or they would kill the lord. Even the vassal knew of the law of diminishing returns and the importance of not “eating the seed corn”. Many ancient lessons have been unlearned.


JohnJ July 24, 2010 at 14:22

It’s worth remembering that the Federal Reserve was created by the federal government in 1913, and they wouldn’t be able to do what they do without the government’s backing. The problem is worse than bankers; it’s government-owned bankers.


James July 24, 2010 at 14:49

That’s why it’s called the ‘American Dream ™’;
Because you’d have to be asleep to believe it.

You can only be a slave to the debt system if you buy into it.

It has taken some work, but I am debt free other than my mortgage and I am targetting that next. I think we need to think like our grandparents generation more. Their attitude was “If you need credit to buy something you want then you can’t afford it”.

1) Start by eliminating your credit card debt. They interest on those can be incredibly high!

2) If you are making large car payments, then sell it! Buy a beater. You can get a nicer vehicle with cash once you are debt free. Put the money you save on payments against the credit cards and other loans.

3) Kill of other loans and then go for that mortgage!

A man who is debt free is also free to make other life decisions!


Epoche* July 24, 2010 at 16:15

as von mises wrote in one of his earliest book, the function of banks is to serve as a intermediary using property rights and law to profit from the time value of money, between savings and profit from investment. In todays and age, there really is no such thing as accountability for banks in any way, shape or form. The new function of banks is to serve as a payment processing center this is because of fdic insurance. Citibank should have gone bankrupt but it will not, there are no limits to the moral hazards that banks can impose on us.


Gx1080 July 24, 2010 at 16:18

So….basically, the credit card industry is a pyramid scheme designed to get as much money from people as possible by using overly drawn-out interests.

It wouldn’t bother me as much if it wasn’t for all the brainwashing done for the Lamestream media to get people to buy that scam.

July 24, 2010 at 16:40

He’s saying they illegally/unethically move the 100 dollars to the otherside of the ledger, not just loan out 90 of it, but say the whole 100 represents the 10% minimum assets vs loans, then they are able to borrow 1,000 from the federal reserve to loan out. Repeat. Rinse.

This was a grand slam, Hawaiian Libertarian. Excellent article. I remember vacationing in Thailand back in 2000-2001. The U.S. dollar was equal to 50 Thai baht. Now the greenback is trading for 33 Thai baht. When will Americans wake up, when it goes down to 25 Thai baht? 20?

This isn’t just another recession we’re in. This is big time restructuring. There won’t be another economic boom for a very very long time. My guess is twenty years.


tweell July 24, 2010 at 18:32

Hawaiian Libertarian’s description of fractional-reserve banking is obviously not close to the textbook definition. However, I’d bet that what he has described is close to how many banks have been operating. Since having a 10% reserve is considered excellent by the Fed, lots of banks have engaged in accountant shenanigans in order to look like they’re in good shape. How else do you have banks that are listed at 10% and taken over just days later? Barring a run on the bank, the only possibility is that they were using Enron accounting.

Precious metals have been used for money because they are rare, look pretty and have an infinite shelf-life. Inflation was curbed because there’s only so much gold and silver around. Nowadays they have intrinsic value of their own – gold plated electronics are resistant to corrosion and silver is the most electrically conductive element, so both are used in industry.
   
Hawaiian Libertarian’s final point is quite valid. Go into debt only when you have to, and only as little as you have to. The only ‘good’ debt is when that borrowed money is making more than the interest that you are being charged. This does not hold true for cars, houses, vacations, appliances, fine dining, etc. It used to be true for education, but I’d want to run a cost/benefit analysis before going into debt for school. I have never owned a new car or a new house, but I don’t have car or mortgage payments. The credit cards get paid off every month. Don’t work for the banks, work for yourself!



the universe July 24, 2010 at 19:48

From my understanding of the system that HL writes about the fractional reserve method looks something like this:

$100 can become $1000 by keeping the original $100 as a cash pile to back up $900 in new loans to others. The original $100 is a fractioned (1/10th) real amount held as a reserve to justify new loans of $900 to others. (Or bank keeps $10 and loans out $90. Same thing)
  
The other loaned $900 doesn’t actually exist as paper or cash but exists as fictional numbers to be paid back by money borrowers. The borrowers pay back real money (principal borrowed amount + interest) to the fictional bank created loan numbers. Pure exponential profits for a bank. Hard time for the borrower of fictional money.
  
Anyway, this isn’t based on science but how fractional reserve appears to me.
   
Furthermore, banks gamble on whether the borrowers of real and fictional bank money can pay the loan(s) back. If massive amounts of people default on their loans, banks go under because of the borrowed money banks owe other larger banks. And, if people, en masse’, decide to withdraw their money from their banks, there wouldn’t be enough money in reserve to pay back all people. Both instances can topple a bank and create a resounding ripple effect in the banking and financial system.
   
Again, just a view.


irlandes July 24, 2010 at 20:49

Sorry, sports fans, HL is exactly right at least at the first degree. If you want to learn more, it’s called something like, “Creating demand deposits.”

Back in the early 70′s, a man at work told me (using the 10% reserve example) that if I deposit $100 in the bank, they keep it as the 10% reserve, and simply create $900 out of thin air, and loan it out.

I told him he was crazy as a loon. I said with a 10% reserve they could only loan out $90. I didn’t eat loon, but after investigating, I did eat a lot of crow. That is EXACTLY how it works.

Those of you who said what I said nearly 40 years ago, need to get better informed as I did.
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deposit_account

Read carefully, and note the following statement:

    “In this way, commercial banks are allowed to increase the money supply (without printing currency, or legal tender).”

October 30: Boo-Boo Boo-Ya Mini Pizzas

by Natalie M
Here they are in their uncooked state, when they're still just Boo-Ya pizzas...

So what did you do today? I went to two Halloween parades and one Halloween class party. Then I came home, changed out of my pirate costume, made a batch of Oreo fudge for a fundraising bake sale happening tomorrow, and then made mini pizzas for dinner tonight.

I've seen recipes for these mini pizzas before (in fact, I've made these) but the recipe calls for using biscuit dough. My kids hate biscuits. But they do like regular pizza dough. So I decided to be all clever and buy a ball of dough from my supermarket to cut out my own biscuit shapes to make the base something they'd eat. Sometimes I'm so clever.

Here's the (easy) process, with photos, so you can also feel clever.

Use sliced mozzarella cheese and a ghost-shaped cookie cutter to cut out cheesy ghosts.
There will be a scrap heap. 
Run a knife through over the scraps so they're more like shreds. 
Set all the cheese to the side. 
Take the refrigerated dough out of its bag and put it on a lightly floured surface. Open the sauce.
Roll out the dough until it is about 1/4-1/2 inch thick, then use a 3-inch round biscuit cutter to cut circles from the dough. (These are likely smaller in diameter than the cheese that gets placed on it, but the dough is about to get worked into larger rounds.)

Stretch the cut circles so they're slightly larger than the cheese ghosts. This isn't as easy as it sounds. Don't be surprised (or upset) when shapes other than circles are produced, and when they are in no way uniform. Lay the amorphous blobs on a cookie sheet.
(Note: Because I only used 10 slices of cheese, I only made 10 mini pizzas. I used the remaining dough to form a larger semi-circle and used some of the "shredded" cheese as topping.)
 
This is the point in my process where I made a boo-boo, hence the name of my pizzas today.

I topped each pizza with our favorite pizza sauce, then with a cheese ghost, and some mini pepperonis in the vague formation of faces.

 "Naked"
"Dressed"

Then I baked them in a 450 degree oven for 14 minutes (the dough package said 20 minutes, but because everything was kinda thin and rather smaller, they were done at 14.) 

When I took them out, they looked bubbly, cheesy, perfectly delicious...but the ghosts--as is the way with ghosts--had disappeared.
...and here they are in their cooked state, when they have become Boo-Boo Boo-Ya mini pizzas.

Suddenly, not feeling so clever anymore. Alas, this has happened to me before. Last Halloween. But I forgot. Until I opened the oven and saw these. (Thankfully, I showed the girls the pre-baked version so the aesthetic value wasn't totally wasted.)

It's not too late for you, though. You can still feel clever because when you make these, you can avoid my boo boo. What I SHOULD have done (and what you should do) is bake the dough and sauce, then add the cheese slices when the dough was done. Then the ghost shape would have held up. 

Oh well. Live and learn. 

Or live and learn, forget, live and learn again, have to share that learning on the blog, feel dumb, talk self out of feeling dumb, know it doesn't actually matter, eat delicious pizza that only looks like mini pizza instead of mini ghost pizza, rename blog post accordingly.

You know. Whatever it ends up being for you.

Be clever. Eat pizzas. Natalie...out!

Doing something about immigration

by noreply@blogger.com (VD)
If the politicians won't, it is now readily apparent that the people will:
Swedish police today confirmed that the letter found in Lundin-Pettersson's home proves that the attack was a planned racist hate crime and that he acted alone.

'It was a kind of suicide note, I believe the letter was hand-written,' head of investigation Thord Haraldsson told a press conference earlier today. 'He writes that he has to do something about the immigration politics in Sweden.;

When asked if Lundin-Pettersson made clear in his letter that he did not intend to survive the attack, police said that it 'can be interpreted that he thought he was going to die'.  

Security footage from the school in Trollhattan, north of Gothenburg, shows Lundin-Petterson marching through school corridors armed with a sword and a knife, and stopping to talk to light-skinned students. 'He selected his victims and attacked the dark-skinned ones and left the light-skinned ones alone,' Haraldsson said today. 'Everything points to this being a hate crime.' 

Lundin-Petterson's second victim, Ahmed Hassan, 15, who died in hospital on Thursday afternoon, had arrived in Sweden with his parents and eight siblings from Somalia in 2012.
It's fascinating. Lundin-Petterson was willing to die for his people; he literally died defending his nation against invaders, and yet the global media is desperately trying to paint him as some sort of hateful monster. But how is he any different than the tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers who died defending their country? Should we regard the sailors and soldiers who died at Pearl Harbor as racist hate criminals who should be denounced as anti-Japanese bigots? The Japanese weren't even planning to invade, let alone colonize Hawaii, after all.

Lundin-Petterson died fighting in his homeland, on his native soil. Most American soldiers can't even say that.

Like it or not, immigration is war. That is the history of immigration. And these mass migrations are why there will be war.

UPDATE: Speaking of which, European nationalists are now attacking the invaders' sea transports.
Grupos de personas con la cara cubierta han perpetrado ataques contra barcas y lanchas que transportan a refugiados desde Turquía hasta Grecia, en algunos casos inutilizando sus motores o incluso devolviendo estas barcas a aguas turcas.

A doctor's take

by noreply@blogger.com (VD)
This letter, purportedly written by a Czech doctor working in a Germany hospital, illuminates the true blessings of diversity presently being wrought by the mass Islamic migration:
Eyewitness from a Munich hospital: A friend in Prague has a friend, who, as a retired physician, had returned to work at a Munich area hospital where they needed an anaesthesiologist. I correspond with her and she forwarded me her email. Yesterday, at the hospital we had a meeting about how the situation here and at the other Munich hospitals is unsustainable. Clinics cannot handle emergencies, so they are starting to send everything to the hospitals.

Many Muslims are refusing treatment by female staff and, we, women, are refusing to go among those animals, especially from Africa. Relations between the staff and migrants are going from bad to worse. Since last weekend, migrants going to the hospitals must be accompanied by police with K-9 units.

Many migrants have AIDS, syphilis, open TB and many exotic diseases that we, in Europe, do not know how to treat them. If they receive a prescription in the pharmacy, they learn they have to pay cash. This leads to unbelievable outbursts, especially when it is about drugs for the children. They abandon the children with pharmacy staff with the words: “So, cure them here yourselves!” So the police are not just guarding the clinics and hospitals, but also large pharmacies.

Truly we said openly: Where are all those who had welcomed in front of TV cameras, with signs at train stations?! Yes, for now, the border has been closed, but a million of them are already here and we will definitely not be able to get rid of them.

Until now, the number of unemployed in Germany was 2.2 million. Now it will be at least 3.5 million. Most of these people are completely unemployable. A bare minimum of them have any education. What is more, their women usually do not work at all. I estimate that one in ten is pregnant. Hundreds of thousands of them have brought along infants and little kids under six, many emaciated and neglected. If this continues and German re-opens its borders, I’m going home to the Czech Republic. Nobody can keep me here in this situation, not even double the salary than at home. I went to Germany, not to Africa or the Middle East.

Even the professor who heads our department told us how sad it makes him to see the cleaning woman, who for 800 Euros cleans every day for years, and then meets young men in the hallways who just wait with their hand outstretched, want everything for free, and when they don’t get it they throw a fit.

I really don’t need this! But I’m afraid that if I return, that at some point it will be the same in the Czech Republic. If the Germans, with their nature cannot handle this, there in Czechia it would be total chaos. Nobody who has not come in contact with them has no idea what kind of animals they are, especially the ones from Africa, and how Muslims act superior to our staff, regarding their religious accommodation.

For now, the local hospital staff has not come down with the diseases they brought here, but, with so many hundreds of patients every day – this is just a question of time.

In a hospital near the Rhine, migrants attacked the staff with knives after they had handed over an 8-month-old on the brink of death, which they had dragged across half of Europe for three months. The child died in two days, despite having received top care at one of the best pediatric clinics in Germany. The physician had to undergo surgery and two nurses are laid up in the ICU. Nobody has been punished.

The local press is forbidden to write about it, so we know about it through email. What would have happened to a German if he had stabbed a doctor and nurses with a knife? Or if he had flung his own syphilis-infected urine into a nurse’s face and so threatened her with infection? At a minimum he’d go straight to jail and later to court. With these people – so far, nothing has happened.

And so I ask, where are all those greeters and receivers from the train stations?

Sitting pretty at home, enjoying their non-profits and looking forward to more trains and their next batch of cash from acting like greeters at the stations. If it were up to me I would round up all these greeters and bring them here first to our hospital’s emergency ward, as attendants. Then, into one building with the migrants so they can look after them there themselves, without armed police, without police dogs who today are in every hospital here in Bavaria, and without medical help.
Reconquista 2.0 is coming. The new Ordo Draconum is coming. And mark my words, this wave of mass migration will mark the end of the West's well-meaning but ill-considered experiment in religious freedom. Forget "European union". It is time to bring back the nations of Christendom.

The writer is wrong. The lesson of history is clear: the nations of Christendom can and will get rid of the invaders. It can be done the Spanish way, the German way, or the Romanian way. And the longer it takes to substantively address the issue, the more likely it is that one of the two latter methods will be embraced by the public and utilized.

Immigration is rape culture. Immigration is cultural rape.

Genes Mirror Geography, Nations And Cultures

by CH

Via:

Culture does not spring up out of the ground unseeded, like a summoned monolith. Human genetic disposition seeds the ground and creates culture, unleashing a macro feedback loop where culture and genes interact in perpetuity. Those “cultural judgments” [the leftoids] recoil from are actually subconscious reinforcements of ancient biological truths.

Chateau Heartiste, October, 2011.

Equalist leftoid race creationism is bringing the death of the West. It is a sick, suicidal ideology built on a foundation of rank lies. It must be defeated, or it will consume everything good, true, and beautiful in its path.

The biggest threat to your daughter?

by Mark Richardson
The Daily Telegraph is a major newspaper here in Australia. In an opinion section it ran a piece titled "The biggest threat to my daughters is them being in a relationship". The author, Jodie Whittaker, writes:
I worry about the most lethal and emotionally devastating threat to each of my girls — being in a relationship.

So there you have it. A young woman being a relationship with a young man is now considered a lethal and emotionally devastating threat.

It's not difficult to respond to this kind of thing in terms of facts. Jodie Whittaker gets a number of things wrong. She writes:
Recent statistics show domestic family violence claims more Australian women’s lives and causes more ill health than all other well-known preventable risks.

That's not a recent statistic. It is a rogue statistic that has been doing the rounds since the 1990s (I have written about this statistic here and here). Suffice it to say that an Australian woman is about eight times more likely to self-inflict mortal wounds than to suffer such wounds from another person (i.e. the bigger threat to Jodie Whittaker's daughters is themselves not their boyfriends).

Similarly, it is not true that women are safer alone than when partnered. In 1996 the Australian Bureau of Statistics released a Women's Safety Survey which found that single women were 250% more likely to experience violence than those living with a partner (see here). It should also be noted that about 90% of cases of intimate partner homicide occur amongst a social underclass in which neither partner is employed.

The problem is that we can correct misinformation until the cows come home, but these kind of attitudes will persist, despite the fact that it is more natural for the men and women of a community to feel allegiance to each other rather than being set apart as enemies.

There is something about modern society that encourages this setting apart of men and women. Perhaps it is the loss of complementary relationships in which men and women needed each other and experienced a sense of completion through their relationship with the opposite sex. In such societies, sex distinctions were generally celebrated and formalised within culture, for instance, through acts of courtesy.

Perhaps too it is the use of sexual politics as a battering ram to gain a competitive advantage in the workplace (and moral status in society in general).

Or maybe it has to do with loyalty between men and women not fitting into the logic of a modern liberal society run along technocratic lines (channelling Jim Kalb here). Such a loyalty is "opaque" (i.e. not bureaucratically administered) and therefore antiquated or irrational in modernist eyes.

Or it could be that there is a fear that without the demonization of husbands, that young women might be tempted to see the roles of wife and mother more positively.

Is it robolove or robolust?

by Dalrock

The topic of sexbots is making the rounds again, and once again the question is how they fit with our new sexual morality.  The last time this went around the argument by Dr Helen Driscoll was that using sexbots would become accepted as moral because their users would fall in love with them.  This sets up the angry feminist backlash by Dr Kathleen Richardson, who explained to the Daily Express that the problem with robosex is a lack of purifying emotion:

Dr Richardson believes humanoid sex robots reinforce traditional and damaging stereotypes of women.

It also perpetuates the view that a relationship does not need to be more than simply physical.

Drs. Richardson and Driscoll aren’t alone in their modern idea that sexual morality is determined by the amount of emotion involved.  Dr. Albert Mohler, President of the The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, uses a very similar argument to explain why men viewing pornography is immoral.  Dr. Mohler warns that pornography weakens the power of denial of sex as a tool for wives to control their husbands.  As a result of this loss of power by wives, husbands will fail to mix in the purifying emotion which makes sex moral:

…Since the male sex drive is largely directed towards genital pleasure, men often assume that women are just the same…

The emotional aspect of sex cannot be divorced from the physical dimension of the sex act. Though men are often tempted to forget this, women possess more and less gentle means of making that need clear.

Consider the fact that a woman has every right to expect that her husband will earn access to the marriage bed…

…when I say that a husband must regularly “earn” privileged access to the marital bed, I mean that a husband owes his wife the confidence, affection, and emotional support that would lead her to freely give herself to her husband in the act of sex.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Drs. Driscoll, Richardson, and Mohler are all using the same yardstick to determine sexual morality.  This is the modern way of thinking, and it is a direct consequence of our replacing traditional marriage with serial monogamy.  Under the new view, headship is inverted and sex is purified by romantic love.

All three are looking at this through the wrong lens, but in the narrow disagreement between Drs. Driscoll and Richardson I can only agree with Dr. Driscoll.  Dr. Richardson argues that robosex is immoral because it lacks purifying emotion.  However, to the extent that robosex is worse than other masturbation tools the problem is the opposite.   With vibrators and pornography the misuse is almost entirely physical.  With sexbots there will be a much higher risk that romantic love would be misused as well:

“The physical act of sex will only be a small part of the time you spend with a sex robot – the majority of time will be spent socialising and interacting,” Roxxxy’s creator believes.

The biggest problem we have is that having jettisoned real sexual morality, we aren’t able to process the dangers that sexbots will pose in any meaningful way.  If romantic love makes sex moral, the proponents of sexbots will always have a seemingly undefeatable argument in their favor.  To argue that emotions don’t purify sex would undermine our entire modern edifice of sexual morality.  This leaves us arguing over whether having sex with an artificial person involves emotion.  If this is the discussion, those in favor of sexbots have the far stronger position.

Aside from the purely moral question, there is another risk regarding sexbots.  Our economy is built on the expectation that men will be motivated by marriage to produce in excess of their own needs.  As we continue to degrade marriage, sexbots will be there to fill the gaps.

Sexbots don’t even need to become a direct replacement for marriage to have a profound effect on our economy.  Our current system relies on young men continuing to prepare to be providers while marriage continues to be further and further delayed.  Sexbots will in this context be yet another distraction tempting young men to coast instead of working diligently in anticipation of their future wives tiring of having sex with other men.  As each successive cohort of women tires of the carousel and starts looking for husbands, they will increasingly find that the cohort of men they hoped to marry are still willing to marry but fewer and fewer are in a position to play the role of provider.  Additionally, sexbots could also accelerate the decline in men’s willingness to remarry after being punished in divorce court.

How America’s New Nobility Has Forgotten Its Obligation To The Country

by Michael Sebastian
576fdaab48

Regardless of how much progressives and “conservatives” drone on about equality, every society has an elite or noble class. The nobility, also known as the aristocracy, is defined as the group of people who belong to the highest social class in a particular country.

In the past, membership in the aristocracy was based on heredity. The nobility was synonymous with duty, honor, education, refinement, and courage. The noble class wasn’t just a group of wealthy do-nothings. They were expected to live by a higher code that included concern for the well being of their country.

Today, we still have an aristocracy, but it is not based on heredity. Instead it is based on wealth, celebrity, and educational background. Unfortunately, our new aristocrats are almost the complete opposites of the old nobility.

The Old Aristocracy

Karl_of_Austria

Emperor Karl, last of the Hapsburg Emperors

The hereditary nobility of the past was derived from the warrior class of the middle ages. Medieval society was divided into three basic groups: the priests, the nobles, and the peasants. Each group played a role in society. The job of the nobles was to protect the peasants and priests enabling them to complete their daily functions.

The behavior of the English nobility during the First World War is a good example of this. The British aristocracy enlisted in the military to defend the country. The nobility suffered disproportionately greater casualties than any other social class. The staggering losses suffered by the nobility forever changed the political trajectory of Britain. Historian Joanna Bourke writes:

This had a devastating impact: the prime minister’s son was killed, a number of cabinet members’ sons were killed and this meant that in the immediate postwar, those apprentices who were expected in the natural order of things to become leaders – particularly in politics and business – were no longer there.

For the old nobility, fighting for their country wasn’t something to be avoided or just for the lower classes, these wealthy aristocrats felt that it was their primary duty.

And it wasn’t just defense. The old aristocratic codes called upon the nobility to disdain wealth and to be generous with the poor.

The New Aristocracy

Business magnate and supporter of left wing causes George Soros

Flash forward to our present degenerate culture. In today’s twisted society the “nobility” has become a class of wealthy, materialistic, and amoral twits. The concepts duty, bravery, and honor are completely unknown to them.

Who are the new nobility? Well, in the United States, it is the wealthy, liberal political elite such as the Kennedys, Bushs, and Clintons, Silicon Valley billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg, reality show nobodies like the Kardashian clan, professional athletes, and the handful of preachy actors and writers that dominate the Hollywood scene.

The Clintons: Representatives of our political nobility

Political Aristocrats: Revenant Bill Clinton telling President Obama about the horrifying side effects of a vegan diet.

The Clintons are an example of everything that is wrong with American politics. Of course, there are Bill’s notorious affairs while he was in office, and the rumors of dalliances after he left office, but that is really inconsequential when compared to the rest of the Clinton legacy.

The most egregious example is the Clinton Foundation. Author Peter Schweizer, in his book Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich, alleges that the Clintons amassed hundreds of millions of dollars by doing political favors for their clients.

For example, Schweizer writes that a Saudi sheik who is a high-dollar Clinton Foundation donor had a lucrative relationship with Ethiopia’s repressive government. Even though the State Department found that Ethiopia failed to meet transparency requirements to receive US aid, Hillary, as Secretary of State, conveniently granted Ethiopia a waiver.

Hillary-Vegas-top-640x480

If Schweizer is correct, the Clintons have turned the US government into a money making machine for themselves. This is hardly the selfless behavior that one would expect from a true noble.

But I am not singling out the Clintons here. They are only an example of how our political elite no longer has the good of the country as their goal. Their only goals are personal enrichment and power.

Mark Zuckerberg: Representative of our corporate nobility

Mark-Zuckerberg-Priscilla-Chan-18

New aristocrats Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla

Another glorified American nobleman is Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg. Worth an estimated $38.6 billion, the Internet entrepreneur was listed among Time magazine’s 100 wealthiest and most influential people in the world.

Zuckerberg has put his wealth and influence to use by spending an estimated $25 million for pro-amnesty candidates and causes via his pro-open borders lobbying group FWD.us. Amnesty helps large corporations by increasing the supply of low-income workers, thus driving wages down for those jobs. But lower wages hurt American workers, especially those who are the most vulnerable including poor Hispanic and Black Americans.

But Zuckerberg isn’t only interested in lowering wages for poor Americans. He also wants fewer jobs and lower wages for the middle class. He supports increasing the number of H-1B visas for skilled that will increase the supply of skilled workers for corporations. That means American STEM graduates have fewer and lower paying job opportunities. Some young men despair of ever finding a good job. All this at a time when college costs have skyrocketed and the amount of student loan debt young Americans are carrying is at an all time high.

If the aristocracy is supposed to help the “peasants” of their own country, Zuckerberg is failing miserably. To him and our other corporate elites, what really matters is their own bottom line.

The Kardashian Clan: Representatives of our “celebrity” elite

Celebrity Aristocrat Kim Kardashian via Instagram

As a family unit, the Kardashians embody virtually every vice and plague our current culture glorifies: gross materialism, do-it-yourself porn videos, bastardy, multiple divorces, promiscuity, gender fluidity (see Bruce Jenner), and extreme narcissism. The family has built an impressive empire upon Kim’s enormous naked ass and propensity for attention whoring.

But would this “noble” group actually do anything good for our failing country? Would the fabulous Kanye West with his titanic ego, take up arms to defend our nation if the need arose? Or would he simply hide behind one of his overpriced, Yeezy Season 1 creations? After all why worry about the “little people” when Kim can preach body fat acceptance with nude pregnancy selfies? (Warning: what has been seen, cannot be unseen.)

I do have one good thing to say about the Kardashians: as odious as they are, at least they do not lecture me about how I should pay more in taxes to save the world. I respect that.

Professional Athletes

** FILE ** Former Arizona Cardinals football player Pat Tillman, is shown in a June 2003 file photo, released by Photography Plus. Investigators probing the friendly fire death in Afghanistan of former football star Pat Tillman found no criminal negligence, a government official said Monday, March 26, 2007.   (AP Photo/Photography Plus via Williamson Stealth Media Solutions, FILE) ** NO SALES **

Pat Tillman

There was a time when professional athletes weren’t just about their enormous salaries, fame, scores of girlfriends, and going bankrupt five years after retiring from sports. In December 1941 after the bombing of Pearl Harbor many professional athletes were eager to enlist and fight against the Axis of Powers in World War II. And they enlisted despite the fact that serving in the military could have ended their professional athletic careers.

Bob Feller enlisted in the Navy the day after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, making him the first MLB player to enter the war. He spent 26 months as chief of an anti-aircraft gun crew on the USS Alabama. Likewise, Ted Williams served with the US Navy and US Marines during World War II, where he received his pilot’s wings and commission as a second lieutenant in the Marine Corps. After a return to professional baseball he was recalled for active military service in 1952 where he flew 39 combat missions.

Compare the patriotism of these athletes of the past to the fact that only one professional athlete, Pat Tillman, felt the call of duty after the terrorist attacks of September 11th. Keep in mind that 9/11 was an attack on the US mainland, something that hasn’t happened since the War of 1812, and that, unlike Pearl Harbor, it was targeted at civilians.

However, to their credit most athletes are content to live their own lives, and they don’t spend much time lecturing the “smallfolk.”

The Hollywood Elite

stephen-king

Stephen King

Perhaps the greatest of American noble hypocrites are the actors and writers of the so-called Hollywood Elite. Stephen King, whose novels I actually enjoy, has spent the last few years lecturing the middle class on why they should agree to taxes that will inevitably prevent them from getting wealthy while sitting comfortably upon his own fortune. This idea of “wealth for me, but socialism for the proles” is a familiar trope among our new aristocrats.

Likewise, a slew of Hollywood actors such as Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Natalie Portman preach the evils of global warming. Through an assortment of foundations and publicity stunts like tooling around in a Prius or wearing vegan shoes, these champions of the environment will tell you the importance of taking two-minute, cold showers, and limiting your consumption of toilet paper to one square per bowel movement.

Of course, they will conveniently overlook the fact that they fly in private jets and live in houses that use enough electricity to power a third world country. In short, it’s very much like Jennifer Lawrence preaching morality and abstinence.

Conclusion

C.S. Lewis was prophetic when he wrote: “Where men are forbidden to honor a king, they honor millionaires, athletes, or film-stars instead: even famous prostitutes or gangsters. For spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison.”

While we can’t do anything at the present time to remove our new aristocrats, we at least can nourish our souls with what is best: high quality art and music, classical philosophy, and sound theology.

Seeing the face of evil, and flinching

by noreply@blogger.com (VD)
This is why forcing people to see the truth they are attempting to avoid seeing is important. It makes a difference. It sears the conscience. The five videos released by The Center for Medical Progress have Ruben Navarette rethinking his longtime support for abortion:
I still consider myself pro-choice, as I have for the last 30 years. I staked out this position during my freshmen year in college. Even then, I understood the abortion debate was a tug-of-war between competing rights—those of the mother versus those of an unborn baby. I sided with the mother. And I tried not to think about the baby.

All this was happening in the 1980s, which was a particularly tense time in the abortion debate. Americans were at each other’s throats. Protesters picketed the offices of abortion providers. Clinics were bombed or set on fire. Doctors who performed abortions were being threatened. The Moral Majority, Operation Rescue, and the Republican Party seemed an intolerant lot. I couldn’t imagine siding with them, so I lined up on the pro-choice side.

I arrived there for a simple reason: Because I’m a man. Many will say that this is not a very good reason, but it is my reason. Lacking the ability to get pregnant, and thus spared what has been for women friends of mine the anguishing decision of whether to stay pregnant, I’ve remained on the sidelines and deferred to the other half of the population.

Over time, I made refinements—going along with waiting periods and parental notification laws at the state level, and coming out against the barbaric practice known as partial birth abortion.

As I’ve only realized lately, to be a man, and to declare yourself pro-choice, is to proclaim your neutrality. And, as I’ve only recently been willing to admit, even to myself, that’s another name for “wimping out.”

At least that’s how my wife sees it. She’s pro-life, and so she’s been tearing into me every time a new video is released. She’s not buying my argument that, as a man, I have to defer to women and trust them to make their own choices about what to do with their bodies. To her, that’s ridiculous—and cowardly.

“You can’t stand on the sidelines, especially now that you’ve seen these videos,” she told me recently. “That’s bullshit! These are babies that are being killed. Millions of them. And you need to use your voice to protect them. That’s what a man does. He protects children—his own children, and other children. That’s what it means to be a man.”
The idea that men have to defer to women and permit them to do whatever they want so long as their bodies are involved is both ridiculous and cowardly. There is no "my body" exception to the law; the law that can ban shooting up heroin or drinking unpasteurized milk certainly has the ability to ban the murder, mutilation, and parting-out of prenatal infants.

The USA is considerably worse than National Socialist Germany in this regard. Abortion in America is the equivalent of 9 Holocausts; only Stalin and Mao have been more statistically monstrous. And whether a nation sacrifices its children to Moloch or Mammon, it is not one that will long survive, nor does it deserve to do so.

UPDATE: A summary of the sixth video from The Center for Medical Progress:
The pro-life advocates behind the five shocking videos exposing Planned Parenthood selling the body parts of aborted babies for research have released a 6th video today that shows how the abortion business sells body parts of aborted babies without patient consent.

The video features Holly O’Donnell, a licensed phlebotomist who unsuspectingly took a job as a “procurement technician” at the fetal tissue company and biotech start-up StemExpress in late 2012. That’s the company that acts as a middleman and purchases the body parts of aborted babies from Planned Parenthood to sell to research universities and other places.

The new video includes O’Donnell’s eyewitness narrative of the daily practice of fetal body parts harvesting in Planned Parenthood abortion clinics, describing tissue procurement workers’ coordination with abortion providers, the pressure placed on patients, and disregard for patient consent.
It is time - it is long past time - to shut down Planned Parenthood. Permanently.

Beware the grasshoppers

by noreply@blogger.com (VD)
Something every ant needs to keep in mind is defending one's family against the short-sighted. Peter Grant cites lessons from Hurricane Katrina:
Warn your friends not to bring others with them!!! I had told two friends to bring themselves and their families to my home. They, unknown to me, told half-a-dozen other families to come too - "He's a good guy, I'm sure he won't mind!" Well, I did mind . . . but since the circumstances weren't personally dangerous, I allowed them all to hang around. However, if things had been worse, I would have been very nasty indeed to their friends (and even nastier to them, for inviting others without clearing it with me first!). If you offer a place of refuge for your friends, make sure they know that this applies to them ONLY, not their other friends. Similarly, if you have someone willing to offer you refuge, don't presume on his/her hospitality by arriving with others unforewarned....

People who were prepared were frequently mobbed/threatened by those who weren't. This was reported in at least seven incidents, five in Mississippi, two in Louisiana (I suspect that the relative lack of Louisiana incidents was because most of those with any sense got out of Dodge before the storm hit). In each case, the person/family concerned had made preparations for disaster, with supplies, shelter, etc. in good order and ready to go. Several had generators ready and waiting. However, their neighbors who had not prepared all came running after the disaster, wanting food, water and shelter from them. When the prepared families refused, on the grounds that they had very little, and that only enough for themselves, there were many incidents of aggression, attempted assault, and theft of their supplies. Some had to use weapons to deter attack, and in some cases, shots were fired. I understand that in two incidents, attackers and/or would-be thieves were shot. It's also reported that in all of these cases, the prepared families now face threats of retribution from their neighbors, who regarded their refusal to share as an act of selfishness and/or aggression, and are now threatening retaliation. It's reportedly so bad that most of the prepared families are considering moving to other neighborhoods, so as to start afresh, with different neighbors.

Similar incidents are reported by families who got out in time, prepared to spend several days on their own. When they stopped to eat a picnic meal at a rest stop, or an isolated spot along the highway, they report being approached rather aggressively by others wanting food, or fuel, or other essentials. Sometimes they had to be rather aggressive in their turn to deter these insistent requests. Two families report attempts being made to steal their belongings (in one case, their vehicle) while overnighting in camp stops on their way out of the area. They both instituted armed patrols, with one or more family members patrolling while the others slept, to prevent this. Seems to me to be a good argument to form a "bug-out team" with like-minded, security-conscious friends in your area, so that all concerned can provide mutual security and back-up.
 It's a very good idea to not only be prepared, but make connections with others who are doing the same in order to prevent oneself from being overrun by those who didn't see the need before it was too late.

Seriously, though, how unbelievably obnoxious is it to invite others to a place of refuge that you have not prepared? It also strikes me as a very good way of getting your friends shot. Anyhow, in addition to your various other preparations, it might be handy to keep a pair of skulls on hand to nail up as a warning to grasshoppers that trespassers will be summarily dealt with.

Are We There Yet?

by Keoni Galt

America....FUCK YEAH!

It's now undeniable. America has jumped the shark.

Let us review:


Officially recognized TRANSformation
of the world's greatest military into an LGBT freakshow?




Supreme Court usurping the legislative branch to impose the normalization of homogamy?




Oregon Bakery fined $135,000
for citing their Christian faith as their reason for refusing to make a wedding cake for a gay nuptial ceremony?




Over 55 million abortions since the Supreme Court usurped the legislative branch to impose legalized infanticide? And the foremost provider of abortions was caught on video selling fetus body parts?





The Boy Scouts of America no longer focus on training future generations of homophobic arsonists and gun nuts, but instead are now reversing course and officially sanctioning homosexual scoutmasters to facilitate alone-time with pubescent boys in secluded locales?




One of America's greatest Gold Medal winning Olympians is celebrated for TRANSformational deviancy?




President of the National Organization for the Advancement of Colored People was a white woman pretending to be black?




The number one tell-a-vision series in the country features graphic depictions of incest, rape, murder, rape, debauchery, rape, torture, homo deviant trysts, prostitution and more rape? 




Millions of women inundate teh Interwebz with selfies taken with their handheld mobile affirmation devices in provocative poses to receive their daily narcissism fix?




Beautiful women of fertile age who are physically ready to bear and raise the next generation of our country's children...are instead trading their dignity and chastity to Dubai's decadent jet set who consider it entertaining to gang bang them, defecate on their faces and get them to engage in beastiality, in exchange for five star resort vacation experiences and shopping sprees at luxury brand retail outlets?





Over 45 million citizens, or about 14% of the overall population are now on food stamps? And rather than suffering from hunger, most recipients are more likely to be obese?




Presided for nearly a decade by a President who has a forged birth certificate and a faked background?




Deliberately spraying the skies
above population centers with chemicals on a near daily basis, in the name of "engineering the weather" and "solar radiation management?"



Flying drones in the hinterlands of third world countries to blow up goat herders and poppy farmers?




Endlessly promoting racial violence and riots in the mass media?




Constantly hyping horrific events in which lunatics on psyche meds who go on shooting sprees, with the specific goal to eventually overturn the Second Amendment?




Case after case after case, year after year, all across the blighted plains, of public school indoctrinators having sexual relations with their students?
  



US Military practicing the implementation of martial law in States all across the country this summer? What do you think THEY are really getting ready for?




Citizens and patriots from sea to shining sea, do we not have so much to be thankful for? We are a part of the greatest country on the face of the earth! Aren't you proud of the direction we are moving in as a nation?


It seems as if the whole world is progressively progressing faster and faster towards our engineered Brave New World Order ...and America Inc. is leading the way! Join me in showing our patriotism and pride and hoist the flag way up high as we lead the march ever onwards towards progressive social justice and equality for all!

NAACP President Rachel Dolezal Outed As White Woman

by Matt Forney
rachel-dolezal-frizzy

Some days, I crawl out of bed and wonder if I’m still living in reality. Reading the news makes me wonder if I’m not lying half-dead in a hospital like in Jacob’s Ladder and the whole world around me isn’t some twisted hallucination. For example, learning that Spokane NAACP President Rachel Dolezal is actually a white woman who’s been pretending to be black makes me want to pinch myself so I can wake up from this nightmare:

A recent investigation into racially charged threats made toward the president of the NAACP chapter in Spokane have raised questions beyond who made the threats.

On Thursday, the chapter president’s parents claimed she had been deceiving people.

Ruthanne and Larry Dolezal said Thursday that they want people to know the truth, including that their daughter Rachel Dolezal is Caucasian. The Dolezals said their daughter is specifically German and Czech.

Ruthanne and Larry Dolezal said their daughter has always identified with the African-American culture and had black siblings who were adopted. They said she went to school in Mississippi and was part of a primarily African-American community.

Dolezal apparently achieved her reverse-Michael Jackson appearance through Snooki-esque tanning techniques and a really good hairdresser. After evading press scrutiny for several days, Dolezal came out defiantly attacking her critics:

Rachel Dolezal, the white NAACP leader who misrepresented herself as black for years, was pictured for the first time since the scandal surrounding her race erupted as she left her home on Friday.

She also gave an interview about the controversy, saying of her detractors; “I don’t give two shi*s what you guys think.” You are so far done, and out, of my life’

When pressed further about her race, she told KREM; ‘I actually don’t like the term African-American. I prefer black, and I would say that if I was asked I would definitely say that yes I do consider myself to be black.’

In addition to her status as Spokane NAACP president, Dolezal also teaches Africana Studies at Eastern Washington University and has falsely claimed to have been the victim of “hate crimes” in the past.

A year ago, I wrote a satirical article about “transracialism” with the intent of making fun of transsexuals, but even then, I had no idea that “transracialism” would actually become a thing. While there’s been a small movement of soi-disant “transniggers” on Tumblr, that well-known repository of mental illness and special snowflaking, Rachel Dolezal is the first example of this phenomenon in the real world.

How Transsexuality Paved The Way For Rachel Dolezal

rachel-dolezal

The revelation of Dolezal’s true racial heritage has triggered a flurry of condemnations from left-wing thought organs such as Salon, the same ones that have normalized transsexuality and a host of other mental disorders. What they don’t realize is that by their own logic, the left has no right to criticize Dolezal for lying about being black.

For decades now, leftists have argued that race and gender are social constructs with no biological basis. This ludicrous line of reasoning allows the left to deny basic, observable physical differences between men and women (such as physical strength) as well as scientific data showing cognitive and behavioral differences between different ethnic groups. It has also been used to justify transsexuality: since there’s no biological basis for gender, a man who takes estrogen and gets his rocket flayed into a pocket is just as female as women who were born that way.

By this logic, on what basis can the left condemn Rachel Dolezal? If race is a social construct, then it doesn’t matter that Dolezal is a homely white girl from Montana; if she feels black on the inside, she is perfectly justified in changing her appearance and acting black. If we’re supposed to celebrate Bruce Jenner for embracing his “true” femininity through surgery and hormones, then we should also celebrate Dolezal for embracing her “true” race.

The Myth Of White Privilege

rachel-dolezal-crazy

Rachel Dolezal’s decade-long deception also explodes a popular left-wing myth: the idea of “white privilege.”

According to leftists, American society is deeply racist, advantaging whites over all other races. Yet despite being white, Dolezal chose to reinvent herself as black, a member of a race that is supposedly discriminated against at all levels of society. If white privilege actually existed, Dolezal would never have chosen to deliberately cripple herself by pretending to be a member of an oppressed class.

The truth of “white privilege” is that it not only doesn’t exist, but the reality is the opposite: American society is afflicted with “black privilege,” “minority privilege,” and “female privilege.” As an ordinary white girl, Rachel Dolezal would have never gone anywhere in life. By reinventing herself as black, she not only secured a job teaching at a major university, but she became the president of the local chapter of a powerful political organization.

It remains to be seen whether Dolezal’s exposure will lead to any serious repercussions for her or any changes in the downward trajectory of American culture. All I know is that from here on out, the world is just going to get even more absurd.

Industry pundits talking fertilizer on negative gearing

by linzcom

Never believe a property pundit with self-interests

Lindsay David – Author Print: The Central Bankers Bubble

If you missed ABC’s The Business last Friday, you missed both HIA’s Chief Economist Harley Dale and Crown Group’s Co-Founder Iwan Sunito’s interview. And boy did they not disappoint with their economic theory on negative gearing. Both Dale and Sunito believe that ending negative gearing would actually reduce “supply” of housing on the market.

Dale said ‘if you do that (end negative gearing) your’e immediately conferring an additional value to those investors and perhaps providing them with a disincentive to actually offload the property.’

Sunito said ‘I think it will have some impact because it will probably reduce the number of supply in the market.’ And then goes on to say ‘ I believe property is the thing that is very solid. Its something that will work for you and grow while you sleep.’

Now straight to the point, it would be hard to find two members of the Australian community with as much vested interest in the housing market than these two gentlemen. And no, when it comes to negative gearing, your investment actually ‘costs’ you money while you sleep. And if you know that your high-risk investment is at risk of getting caught in a regulatory trap that will make housing cheaper… you sell (offload) it!

The reality is that aside from negatively geared property investors,  most segments of homebuyers in Sydney and Melbourne are priced out of, or have walked away from the market altogether. If you take away the negative gearers…which buyers are going to cover the shortfall of this artificial leveraged pent up demand? Nobody! And as per one of my previous posts, cities like Sydney and Melbourne do not have a housing shortage, but an artificial leveraged demand problem. This is the worst problem in the world to have for any economy. If there was such a dire shortage as Sunito suggests, why aren’t our local cricket and rugby fields now tent cities??

The reality is that ending negative gearing would burst the credit-fuelled Australian housing bubble and causing arguably one of the greatest economic downturns in Australia’s history. Because it would by all mathematical accounts take out our banking system. Because all of the sudden, you could possibly have more than several hundred thousand property investors who live pay-check to pay-check whilst waiting for the value of their asset to appreciate forced to sell on the fact that it will become unaffordable for them to hold their investment on the back of the banking system unable to lend more to new property investors if they cannot negatively gear their investment. Once again, the maths tell us there will not be enough buyers with the ability to borrow more than today’s leveraged generation of negatively geared property investors which means they could only pay ‘less’ for a particular dwelling versus today’s prices.

And in places like Sydney and Melbourne where property investors make up the absolute majority of current property buyers it takes them out of the game. House prices go down due to credit expansion stalling– leading to a mathematical breakdown similar to that of Bernard Madoff’s ponzi scheme. If that light blue line (Australia’s credit household expansion) in the figure below flatlines like it did with the bright red line (American household credit expansion) Australia has the mother of all property meltdowns.

Madoff v Australia

History tells us that if household credit expansion falls to below 1% in a given economic quarter this means that house prices are falling.  And (though we have only been able to witness very short episodes) start to fall fast until Australian government or central bank intervention. 2008 and 2012 were clear examples of government or RBA (or both) taking incredibly aggressive intervention measures when credit expands QOQ less than 1% stopping the Ponzi from breaking down. But now the RBA has run out of bullets. There is no resource available to counteract an end to negative gearing (whether market or regulation driven), and the household debt-to-gdp ratio is already the third highest in the world. Once again, find me a negatively geared property investor who will want to hold on to their property if property prices fall. Hoping to catch Rambo’s falling knife?

Household Credit Expansion Chronology

If I have the choice to listen to what the maths is telling me or what the pundits are telling me…. i’l take the side of maths every time.

Well This is Awkward...

by Keoni Galt



Time on teh Interwebz is like dog years. Six years seems like aeons ago...and yet it seems like it was just yesterday we were all commenting over at Roissy in D.C.'s comment threads, developing this thing that started out as the "Roissysphere" that eventually spawned what is now widely known as "The Manosphere."

Before Matt Forney created In Mala Fide, before Roosh gave us Return of Kings and before Paul Elam and his crew gave us A Voice For Men and the eventual division between the MRA - MGTOW - PUA - "pro-Game" and "anti-game" blog-o-spheres, there was the first true "Manosphere" online magazine created by Roissy in D.C. regular "Welmer" that basically served as a breeding ground for all these niches we now see out here in the politically incorrect fringes of the "Red Pill" blogosphere.

Alas, Bill Price's The Spearhead is no more.


To those of you who have come across the "Red Pill" within the past two years, but do not really know the history of these fringes of the politically incorrect, reactionary corner of teh Interwebz, understand that many of the websites you read and comment at on a daily basis owe their existence (at least in part) to the groundwork laid by the efforts of "Welmer" aka Bill Price and the authors he assembled as regular contributors to the manosphere's first truly collaborative effort back in 2009, as well as many of the regular reader's and commentariat back in The Spearhead's hey day of rising popularity.

Here's a roll call of The Spearhead Contributors over the years...some who are still going at it, and others who are no longer sited around these fringes of the web or who had blog's of their own that are now defunct:

Black & German (Alte at Traditional Christianity)
carey roberts

Ramzpaul
Roissy (Chateau)
Thag Jones (Lena S.)
Uncle Elmer
Welmer
Whiskey (Women hate hate HATE betas!)
Wikkimania
Zed (Shovel the Fuckin' Gravel!)

* If I missed anyone, and you're reading this, please, leave me a comment and I'll update the roll call. We were all a part of something special....I at least hope to preserve a record of it here.

I'm proud to say I worked with each and every one of these folks in helping to build what we today now know of as "The Manosphere." All of you listed above can be assured that you helped to build today's "Red Pill" Blogosphere. We may have all gone our separate ways and may not even interact at all anymore, but we all did help build up the current grass roots movement of online resistance to mainstream societies socially engineered scourges of feminism, political correctness and normalized misandry.

Bill gave notice several months ago that he was eventually going to let The Spearhead account expire, as he seems to have moved on to a new phase in his life in which time of online endeavors must take a backseat to his marriage and a newborn son. Heeding his warning, I went through the archives and downloaded all of my own contributions to The Spearhead, and will eventually re-run them here just so I can upload the many articles I contributed to the great Googliath and preserve all that work for posterity's sake.

In my humble opinion, some of my best pieces (at least my personal favorites) were done for The Spearhead. Unlike most of my blog posts here, I took the time to read, re-read, and edit my contributions there, as I knew The Spearhead had a much larger base of regular readers and wider exposure than this blog.


But what I found more fascinating then re-reading the many blog posts I wrote some 4-6 years ago (in many cases, I had more than a few "did I really write that?" moments), were the many comments on all the articles.  Many "names" in today's manosphere and men's rights/MGTOW sphere where back then regular participants in The Spearhead's comment conversations who were not yet regular bloggers.

It was a time when the common enemy of Feminism and cultural misandry had most of us existing on the same site in a common truce focused more on a common enemy rather than our differences in ideas and philosophies that eventually resulted in today's fragmented divisions in masculinist thought and philosophy of today's "Red Pill" blogosphere.

I plan on re-editing most of my Spearhead pieces before re-posting them here, but what I am also going to do, is include some notable commentary excerpts at the end of those old posts. I'm not exaggerating when I say that some of the comments were better than the posts that inspired them.

It's fascinating to see in some cases the evolution of the thought processes of many of the current contributors to today's Red Pill sphere, back when they were simply commentors in The Spearhead's unique community in the time before all the virtual schism's that divided up our fringes into the current MGTOW - MRA - PUA - Neo-Reaction - "Christian Red Pill" - niches. 

Bill, if you're reading this, thank you for your years of dedication. It was something I was certainly proud to be a part of, and I do wish you the best in your new pursuits and focus in life. I bet you'll be back to blogging/writing eventually. You're too good at it.

A hui hou, Welmer!

As for The Spearhead...

The Excluded

by noreply@blogger.com (VD)
This concept of intellectual exclusion may help explain why the credentialed elite are so often at odds with me. They can't believe I am willing and able to challenge them so successfully, and I can't believe what clueless idiots they are despite their credentialed positions of intellectual authority. It explains an awful lot; I thought they were smarter than they apparently are:
The probability of entering and remaining in an intellectually elite profession such as Physician, Judge, Professor, Scientist, Corporate Executive, etc. increases with IQ to about 133. It then falls about 1/3 by 140. By 150 IQ the probability has fallen by 97%! In other words, a significant percentage of people with IQs over 140 are being systematically and, most likely inappropriately, excluded from the population that addresses the biggest problems of our time or who are responsible for assuring the efficient operation of social, scientific, political and economic institutions.

"Over an extensive range of studies and with remarkable consistency, from Physicians to Professors to CEOs, the mean IQ of intellectually elite professions is about 125 and the standard deviation is about 6.5.  For example, Gibson and Light found that 148 members of the Cambridge University faculty had a mean IQ of 126 with a standard deviation of 6.3.  The highest score was 139."

"From a theoretical standpoint, democratic meritocracies should evolve five IQ defined 'castes', The Leaders, The Advisors, The Followers, The Clueless and The Excluded. These castes are natural in that they are the result of how people of different intellectual abilities relate to one another.  This is based on research done by Leta Hollingworth in the 1930's and the more recent work of D.K. Simonton."

"Leta Hollingworth studied profoundly gifted children.  She reported them as having IQs of 180+, which was a R16 score.  As such, on today's tests this equates to 159+.  Her conclusion was that when IQ differences are greater than 30 points, leader/follower relationships will break down or will not form.  It establishes an absolute limit to the intellectual gulf between leader and followers."
In other words, more than a few PhDs at elite universities are more than two standard deviations below me in IQ terms. And here I am supposed to be impressed by a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy of Language from a second-tier Midwestern university? In fact, given the ability of the Ilk and my Vile Faceless Minions to not only follow my lead in a disciplined manner but also correctly anticipate my intentions without having them explained, the evidence would tend to suggest that the mean intelligence of the regulars here is higher than the Cambridge faculty.

Based on my interactions with "intellectually elite professionals" this doesn't shock me, although I'm a little surprised that both the mean and the ceiling as as low as they are.

So it should be no surprise that I've been "systematically and, most likely inappropriately, excluded" from the science fiction community, as its mean is probably around 1.5 standard deviations below the university professors. (Although in my estimation there are a few SF people with whom I have interacted who clearly have IQs over 139.) But in most instances, the intellectual gulf is simply too great.

Garth Zietsman has said, referring to people with D15IQs over 152, 'A common experience with people in this category or higher is that they are not wanted - the masses (including the professional classes) find them an affront of some sort.'  While true, it is more likely a symptom than a cause of the exclusion.  We need to understand why they are an affront.

I can tell him that. People who work very hard and spend years in order to climb to what they regard as the pinnacle of achievement actively resent those who can simply leap up to the peak. And because their knowledge is hard won, they tend to cling to it much more tenaciously than the more intelligent individual who is no more tied to one piece of information than the next. What makes it worse is that they cannot fathom that the more intelligent individuals do not think like they do.

Members of high IQ societies, especially those that require D15IQs above 145, often comment that around this IQ, qualitatively different thinking emerges.  By this they mean that the 145+ D15IQ person doesn't just do the same things, intellectually, as a lower IQ person, just faster and more accurately, but actually engages in fundamentally different intellectual processes.  

I've been pointing this out for years, if you recall. But because I don't think like the less intelligent, I am regularly labeled everything from stupid to racist. In my experience, the 150 IQ individual does not resent the individual with the 160 or the 175 IQ, and this may be because being above 145, we all tend to engage in similar thought processes, albeit with different capabilities. The 135 IQ individual dislikes and fears the 150+ individuals, while the 115 IQ individual either doesn't believe the 150+ individuals exist or blithely insists that they are crazy.

That's why I despise midwits. You simply can't talk to them. They don't even try to understand you, but instead move to disqualify you as fast as they can. I have much more sensible conversations with people in the 75 to 100 range than I do with most in the 105 to 120 range. The 125 to 140 crowd is okay as long as they don't have an inferiority complex, but when they do, they're the biggest annoyances of all.

People with D15IQs over 150 are effectively 'The Excluded', routinely finding their thoughts to be unconvincing in the public discourse and in productive environments.  If placed in a leadership position, they will not succeed.

Now you know why I have such an allergy to being asked to lead in any way, shape, or form. In any event, this may be one of the more interesting aspects of Brainstorm (a reminder, there are 20 places left for the Wednesday session at 7:30 PM Eastern), as even those who aren't +3SD or higher are, at least, open in principle to the wild and crazy thoughts being expressed by the higher intelligences. If we can figure out how to best harness a community of High IQ Excluded, we should be able to come up with more than a few interesting projects.

The Conspiritard Review

by Keoni Galt


When I was a youth, I was a voracious reader of fiction. I devoured thousands of books over many hours of reading.When I got older and started logging on to teh Interwebz to find new reading material, I turned from my passion for fiction and began to spend a similar amount of time reading non-fiction on a wide variety of topics. History, food and nutrition, biographies, sociology, economics and current events.

Then I discovered the "blogosphere" and began my own blog after immersing myself in the forerunner of what we now know of today as the MAndrosphere. In the past six or seven years, I've probably read several hundred books regarding various aspects of what is commonly considered the "conspiracy theory" genre.

I guess you could say, I re-discovered my passion for reading "fiction" again.

In any event, long time readers of this blog are certainly familiar with all of the tinfoil hat-themed posts i've made here, inspired by all of this reading of both fiction and non-fiction (although it's become rather difficult in deciding which is which...). Thanks to my dedication for reading and writing on this topic, I even garnered an awesome and unique designation from a long time reader: I am a conspiritard! (Love ya, dana!)

As I've pointed out before, I do believe that  within the "conspiracy theory" genre of books and in the fever swamps found on teh Interwebz, there exists a lot of misinformed disinformation. Partial truths, half-truths, false flag blogs and cognitive infiltrators and paid shills who flood the comment sections and forums with outright lies and deceptions....all designed to sow confusion, and bury actual facts beneath an avalanche of mis- and dis- information, all designed to hide the truth in plain site and promote the narrative that bolsters the status quo of the ESTABLISHMENT of our Brave New World Order.

After many hours of reading a multitude of sources regarding many of the more popular conspiracy theories, I've decided to offer a guidepost of sorts for the newbies who first encounter the more strange fringes of teh Interwebz.

The following are my own quick takes and perspectives on the most popular "conspiracy theories" found online. I will rate each "theory" with a simplified, three-tiered ranking system to indicate my own perspective and beliefs as to the veracity of any said theory. The rankings will consist of a numeral rating based on one of the oldest conspiracy theories of all time...


"Woe to you, oh Earth and Sea, for the devil sends the beast with wrath, for he knows the time is short...." - Revelations 13:18


Reckon this...


The Conspiritard Veracity Ratings are as follows:

6 - I remain almost completely unconvinced on the veracity of this theory, there is always a possibility that it may turn out to be true, but I doubt it. Very high probability the theory is mis/dis-info psy-ops. Still an interesting topic to contemplate, if for nothing more than the lulz.

66 - I'm fairly sure most aspects of this theory are pretty accurate and fairly close to the truth of the matter, but there still exists some doubt because many aspects of the theory are unverifiable....or may be mostly true with just enough dis/mis-info inserted to discredit the entire theory. Never forget that the most effective lies are mostly based on truth.

666 - Anything I give the three - 6s rating too, is what I consider to be conspiracy FACT, not conspiracy theory.

All ratings notwithstanding, the contents of this review are simply for entertainment purposes. Anything you decide to do in reaction to any of this info is at your sole discretion, and all consequences forthcoming are your own personal responsibility. The only recommendation I have in reaction to any or all of these theories under review, is that you ensure that your tinfoil headgear fits snugly and comfortably without restricting any unnecessary blood flow, before you commence whatever it is you think you need to do.

And now, on with the review.

Theory: "There is a "New World Order" agenda being implemented by a shadow, elite government - aka 'The Powers That Be,' 'The 1%' to bring the entire planet under one World Government."



TPTB


This is the grand conspiracy of them all. All other conspiracy theories fall under the umbrella of the NWO conspiracy theory. Those of us who have studied the topic in depth have no doubts whatsoever about the veracity of this one. The real question is how do all of the other conspiracy theory's tie into how the elite, TPTB, the 1%, use either the truth or the mis/dis-info psy-ops to achieve their over-arching goals of establishing the NWO. Rather then attempt to provide corroborating links, I'll just suggest you check with Googliath with the search terms "The Georgia Guidestones." THEY, etched their agenda for our Brave New World Order in stone and erected it in the middle of an open field in USA Inc., for all of humanity to see. Let's just keep this one simple and take them at their word.

Theory: "Feminism was deliberately pushed via Non-Profit Foundations and Corporations to get women into the workforce and institute population control."


Got RFID Chips?

The first place I encountered "conspiracy theory" on teh Interewebz was some long ago MRA/MGTOW linkage that concerned the idea that feminism was not something that "just happened" in the 1960's, but rather promoted by an "elite" shadow government with a "New World Order" agenda. The first place I ever put on the tinfoil hat, was Henry Makow's site SavetheMales.com, now henrymakow.ca.  It has now been eight years since he first issued it, but his challenge to anyone who doubted the "conspiracy theory" of feminism he issued in his 2007 article, How the Rockefellers Re-Engineered Women still reveals the veracity of his assesment today:
"Google "Rockefeller Foundation" and "Women's Studies" and you'll get a half million citations."
Also see the infamous Aaron Russo documentary on YouTube, America: Freedom to Fascism.

"'Project Blue Beam' is a conspiracy theory that claims that NASA is attempting to implement a New Age religion with the Antichrist at its head and start a New World Order, via a technologically-simulated Second Coming."


HE IS RISEN


I don't buy this one at all. Every aspect of our Brave New World Order's mass media controlled culture is focused on fostering atheism, agnosticism, paganism, "new age" spirituality and anti-Christianity in any and every form. If THEY are counting on projecting an image of Jesus into the sky to get we the sheeple to submit to their dictatorial rule, shouldn't they have been promoting Christianity and the second coming in every possible channel that they have influence and control?

I don't really know if I buy the idea that HAARP can actually control the weather or cause environmental catastrophes....but due to the track record of secrecy, dishonesty and duplicity of other top secret USA Inc. military programs, I'll give this one two sixes instead of the single one I initially planned to tender here. It's not that far out of an idea compared to many other theories found in the fever swamps of teh Interwebz...

"Much of the "Global Warming" issue is nothing more than a cover story for the world's governments who have been steadily preparing for an impeding natural catastrophe when the magnetic poles of the Earth flip, resulting in world wide cataclysms of earthquakes, volcanoes and super-storms that precede an impending ice age that will wipe out the majority of the world's population."

When the SHTF, it's TEOTWAWKI

Everything you need to know about this one has been covered extensively by my all time favorite doomsday prepper, Tex Arcane. That being said, I give this one three sixes simply for the fact of the matter that global cataclysms are historical fact, and the cycle of ice ages is verifiable. It's not a matter of if, but when. It may not happen in our lifetimes, but as I always say, it's better to be prepared for the worst while hoping for the best.

Theory:
"TPTB, aka  the 1%, aka the elite, aka the Shadow Government, aka The Illuminati, is made up of shape-shifting reptile aliens from Nibiru - Planet X, that disguise themselves as humans to rule over the planet."


The other Lizard Queen

This theory was made famous by the infamous David Icke. At first glance, this makes him appear batshit insane. Trouble is, before I ever encountered Icke's "Reptilian" conspiracy, I did watch a few YouTube videos of his and read a few articles in which he addressed a number of conspiracy theory topics like the modern banking system,  that seemed perfectly rationale and made sense. Then I read his theories on "Reptilie Aliens" and "Illuminati bloodlines." I am of the opinion that David Icke is most likely a psy-op agent or "controlled opposition," who's modus operandi is to basically speak the truth with just enough  dis-info so that the truth he does accurately discuss is ALL branded, marginalized and dismissed as fantastic lunacy.

But then again, I can't say I wouldn't be totally shocked if we were to one day see one of our so-called leaders like our Fake President or as Vox Day nicknamed her years ago "The Lizard Queen," should one day shed their human mask on the Tell-A-Vision and announce that the Annunaki-Nephilim have taken over the Earth and all us humans are to report to the nearest FEMA camps for the Reptilians to commence an all they can eat sheeple buffet...

In researching this topic, I've found many conflicting theories as to why FEMA has set up these camps throughout the country....but I have encountered a number of sources that have verified it for me personally, that in fact these facilities have been constructed all throughout the US...but for what ultimate purpose they are designed for truly remains to be seen.

"Oh beautiful, for gracious skies..."


Although familiar with the topic, I never thought too much about this particular conspiracy theory, until I visited the West Coast USA Inc., last summer, where I watched planes flying at a high altitude create a grid work of patterns across the sky, from horizon to horizon over the city I was visiting. These trails took many hours to dissipate into a gray, overcast sky. As I watched it, I thought to myself, "Damn, Infowars and all those other sites were right! Those are NOT contrails." Living in Hawaii  where I see commercial and military jets take off, land and fly over my islands every single day, I have never seen "contrails" that take hours to dissipate into a gray, hazy, overcast sky like I saw that day.

I only give this theory two sixes, simply because while I believe my own lying eyes - they are spraying SOMETHING up there, and it 'aint regular contrails...for what purposes, it still is hard to ascertain. Conflicting theories cite anything from deliberate poisoning of the masses to trying to geo-engineer the climate and fight "global warming." In any case, THEY are spraying something way up there...

Aaah...at long last, we come to the end of the review. We tackle the ultimate conspiracy without the theory. The final expose of the man who would be the standard-bearer for resisting the Brave New World Order's zeitgeist of loose change and illuminated shrieking.  Pay no mind to the man behind the curtain...he's going his own way. You should too.

Holier Than Thou

by Keoni Galt



In the past, I've made a multitude of references to my youth, growing up in a standard American institution of Churchianity, the First Church of Her Holy Imperative. It is one of the reasons why I left, and have not attended any organized denomination since, despite having come to the conclusion that I in fact do believe in God, and do believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah and his message is Truth.

 
Gospel Truth

But disgust at the idolatry of the Feminine Imperative was not the main reason I stopped church attendance. Hell, at the age I last went, I did not even think about such things at all. White Knightery and self-revulsion for being male where just a part of the culture of my religious community. I was like a fish not realizing there is more to the world than the waters of misandry and idolatrous vagina-worship that I was swimming in my entire life.

I just accepted it as ironclad doctrine that the wages of testosterone are sin.

No, my greatest distaste for organized churchianity was the holier than thou mindset and the delusions of the faithful congregants wielding scriptural verses and saintly doctrine in the struggle for gaining the World Championship of Spiritual and Moral Superiority!


THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE!

I have a great distaste for the scripture wielding, bible-verse quoting preening and one-upmanship that is all too common in our Brave New World Order's Christian culture....and quite frankly, while I owe a lot to the evolution of my thinking and re-discovered faith in the teachings of Jesus to the "Christian" red pill sector of these fringes of teh Interwebz, I am troubled by that ages old problem that was one of the primary factors in why I left church and forsook the faith in the first place, for I see it rearing it's ugly head pretty frequently in the comment sections of the believers and faithful red pill converts.

The furious recitation of biblical verses, the arguments for how YOU are doing it wrong, this is how or what YOU should be doing to avoid Hellfire, damnation and all that cool stuff. As a young teen, I often rolled my eyes and turned away from the typical congregationist getting up on their high horse of morality and attempting to rebuke others for their failure to live up to standards they themselves claimed to be upholding.

In the name of the Lord, many a fool has convinced him or herself that they are preaching the doctrine of HE IS GREATER THAN I, but are really just puffing themselves up in pride and conveying a much different message to any one unfortunate enough to be the target of their sanctimony.


The Typical Manifestation of Your Evangelical Zeal

In my adolescent mind, I came to the erroneous conclusion that well, I was already fallen as a sinful, lust-filled male, so why not check out the left hand path since I was going to hell anyways? Many years of debauchery and "self-discovery" followed. I suspect many a folk have encountered the same sort of Christian and turned away from the message.

Unlike the standard declaration of the modern hedonist, "I regret NOTHING!" I now know and accept that there is much I regret during that time in my life, and would take many of my actions back if I could. But this realization and regrets over past misdeeds have also prepared the way for my eventual acceptance of the message of Jesus when I re-read the Testament of his life and ministry, and sought to try and understand his core message and how it relates to living a good life.  

So look...I realize that while I'm denouncing the behavior in this post that I find off-putting and detrimental to the preaching of the Truth of His Gospel, I shall also have to confess that I too am guilty of the very thing I seek to rebuke here. But it can't be helped, somebody has to say it. Oh wait, he already did:

“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye."

Some dude also once said something along the lines of "You shall know them by their fruits." Well, it would be best if we all focused on growing the best fruit we can grow, and not worry about telling others how they should be growing theirs or how they are doing it all wrong. While you are busy minding other people's gardens, your own is being neglected.

Now if their is one thing I find more off putting than Christians moralizing at each other in self-righteousness, I find evangelical atheism and straw-man crucifixion of Christianity even more intolerable and suffused with insufferable pride and arrogance. rmaxactivepua, took exception to my last two posts regarding my thoughts on marriage, and left some comments that I responded in part to, but I decided to save the majority of my responses for a fisking in this here blog posting.

rmax wrote:

"Just another post by a mind addled by christianity ..."

On the contrary, I've never seen things with as much moral clarity as before. It may seem addled to you, but I would say your mind is addled by our Brave New World Order's cultural standard of inversions.

"The concepts of christianity are dead & deserve to stay dead, precisely because theyre a creation of Rome & jews, specifically designed to create an ancient form of communism."

The concepts of Christianity have survived millenia, and continue to thrive, despite persecutions, genocides and holocausts by those who hate Christ and seek to stamp out his Gospel, for the power and glory they seek are the very wages of sins He rebuked and warned us all to avoid.


"Monogamous marriage is a prime example of the folly of christians."

The problems with monogamous marriage is the deliberate secular and atheist subversion and decimation of the institution so as to socially engineer society so that THEY can pursue their ultimate goal of power and control over we the sheeple. Monogamous marriage is the program for building orderly, civilized society. The true folly lies in the present day chaos of broken homes, single mother households and dysfunctions of the youth that come from the normalization of this war on monogamy.


"Monogamous marriage is incompatible with both men & womens biology & methods of reproduction

Monogamous marriage is the ONLY thing compatible with civilization. Men and women's biology is instinctual and animalistic. We all know that Men want to fuck every pretty young thing that comes into our view, and Women want to fuck the highest status man she can attract. It's how we are wired.

What you fail to understand is that when the animalistic nature of the human sex drive is unleashed and not restrained by any morals or societal standards, you get the societal chaos and dysfunction that we have today. Only through monogamous marriage, where men and women strive to contain, control and hold their animalistic tendencies at bay to build a stable home to raise the next generation, can true civilization that lasts is even be possible.

"All it does is create a horde of pussified, mangina's optimised for slave labour"

I suppose you fail to miss the current horde of pussified mangina's enslaved to the banksters in today's Brave New World Order, when monogamy in the USA Inc., is at an all time low, and divorce and broken homes are at an all time high?

It is the broken home and the children raised without stable parents committed to each other and to the well being of their households that are more likely to grow up enslaved to consumerism, materialism and meaningless, self-destructive hedonism, then the children raised in stable, God-fearing homes.

Look rmax, one of the tenets of Christianity, is that all of mankind are fallen sinners. None of us are perfect. To denounce Chrisitianity because some men have subverted or co-opted the institution of the Church for their own worldly goals or wicked desires is to miss the point of what Jesus taught completely.

Sure there have been Catholic priests that have diddled altar boys, Televangelists who preach false wealth doctrine to amass riches, and feminist Pastorix who minister to millions of hamsters to use sex as a weapon and blow up their families over their husbands looking at teh pr0n. In any and ever case of "Christian" corruption that you can use to denounce Christianity, you are denouncing the sins of the sinners...all of whom are most assuredly NOT following the teachings of The Man Himself.

I guess, rmax, the only thing I can really say to you is this - my last post was an honest testament of my understanding of the Truth of what Jesus taught, and his promise that the Truth will set us free. I have found that freedom, and I only seek to share it with others. It is all I have ever done on this blog. You can disagree with me (as many do), but your assurances that Christianity is a slave religion and responsible for many of the historical evils that have afflicted mankind are just wrong.

When you are done getting your 1,000th notch by hitting and quitting your latest slut, I will be taking my family to the beach and basking in warmth and joy of watching my progeny play in the surf and enjoying the beauty of the world through their innocent, wonder-filled eyes. I've lived a life of hedonistic debauchery in my fallen youth -- and while I was no PUA with double digit notch counts, I have had more than enough meaningless intimacies with ladies to understand the problems that come with a life obsessed with it's pursuit.


http://www.blogblog.com/scribe/divider.gif

Speaking of PUA's, I got one last stream of thoughts regarding this whole 'Holier than thou' theme. I've been asked more than a few times by folks why it is that I would profess to be a believer in Christianity, but still link to, read, and comment on blogs and forums full of wretched PUAs, MGTOWs, sodomites, lechers, fornicators, adulterers, and all sorts of wicked characters.

That is because I am not a "Godly" man.

 I am a God-fearing man, and I recognize how debauched I am. I am a lowly sinner in need of much repentance, atonement and redemption. And many of these folks who others would denounce as not worthy of any time spent reading or commenting at their respective outposts in these fringes of teh Interwebz, are in the exact same boat as I.

Just because I have come to recognize the Truth of His message, does not mean I am any better than any other sinner. We all have to face up to our own sins, and I am not worried about the planks in other's eyes, for we all have our own planks we need to worry about.

What I do recognize, is that many of my fellow fallen sinners, also have their own perspectives, experiences and viewpoints that do contain value for me to read, contemplate and consider. For instance, after leaving a well thought out comment on my Messages for Millenials post, another poster denounced Black Poison Soul for his thoughts, which in turn inspired what turned out to be a pretty good post: Back to Basics: What is Marriage For?:

What is marriage for?


Possible answer: Because we love each other. No. We can love someone without marrying them. Without getting involved with them. Without anything formal being involved at all.

Possible answer: Because we're exclusive. No. We can be exclusive with someone without marrying them. That's just a "lets fuck exclusively" arrangement.

Accepted answer: To protect the family.

Black Poison Soul ended up putting on his Crap Colored Glasses™ and expanded on the thoughts I had put forth on my last post about It's For the Children!.

Yet again: Why was marriage developed?

It was developed to harness the power of Men and to yoke it to the development of civilization for the overall benefit of Men, Women, and Child(ren). When you give somebody skin in the game, then they will work hard at it. To give someone skin in the game, then there must be in their opinion something worthwhile in return.

Read the whole thing.

It's a great post from a fellow fallen sinner. He does not need me to call him to account for his sins, that's not my kuleana. That's between he and God. But I will take what good he has put forth here and say, this fruit that he has produced, why it is good! It stands in direct contrast to the arguments of that other fallen sinner I spent some time responding to earlier.

rmax calls monogamy slavery and unfair to men, that favors Women's sexual strategy at the expense of men's. I say monogamy puts a leash on both Men and Women's sexual strategy, for the express benefit of their offspring.

And until you have your own offspring and you see the benefits of a stable home your monogamous marriage provides them, you will not understand this when I say to you that truly, it is no slavery at all.

Taking Your Kids To Church Will Turn Them Into Degenerates

by Blair Naso
9

A phenomenon in Christianity in the last hundred years or so is ecumenism, the belief that Christians should be united despite differences in beliefs. This is especially ubiquitous today and is the major driving force behind all those smug non-denominational churches popping up all over town.

Yet churches today—at least within evangelicalism—are in fierce competition for membership, knowing that churches grow more by migration than by conversion. And a major marketing point for the church on your street corner is their children’s ministries.

The Story Of Suburban America

6

 

You grew up going to church, but you decided that you would rather smoke weed and have sex. So you gradually quit going, giving a reason like how we can’t know with absolute certainty whether God exists. But then you got married and grew too old for recreational drug use. Now you’ve got kids, and you don’t want them to grow up into degenerates. Plus it’s hard to make friends post-college beyond the idiots at work.

So you decided to start going back to church. You saw a billboard advertising the children’s ministry at a church in the area. You’ve met a few people that go there. From all you’ve heard, it sounds like an entertaining place.

The church is huge and doesn’t feel stuffy and outdated. What can it hurt to take your family to church? Seems like a good thing to do, and you’ve got nothing to lose but a few hours of sleep.

Fast-forward twenty years, and you’ve found that of the kids your children grew up with at church, the ones that were the most devout have the worst substance abuse problems and often aren’t Christians at all anymore. Your daughter turned into the church slut, and your son is a complete social retard. What the hell happened?

The Hell That Happened

93686_630x354

Most pastors in any Christian sect have no marketable skills beyond public speaking. Protestantism in general has more candidates for pastoral ministry than positions available. So the pastor knows he has to be careful about which sermons he feels God leading him to preach or else he could easily find out that God’s calling in his life has suddenly changed.

People church hop regularly today, in part because of the competitive nature in evangelicalism. So people join churches like they join golf courses. This one is really nice, but that other one has a tennis court, so we’ll pay our dues there instead. You get out of people what you expect out of them, so if churches treat their laity like clientele, then the lay people will act accordingly.

The days of attending the same church your family has attended for generations is gone. This lack of commitment to individual churches correlates with the lack of commitment found in Christian marriages, as divorce is rampant in these nominally pro-family establishments.

Churches also measure their success by quantity of members instead of quality. And to outsiders, a large number of members is a sign of quality, much how people continue to eat at franchise restaurants no matter how awful they taste while ignoring the local restaurants, unless those local restaurants gussy up their atmosphere to look like chain restaurants.

My childhood church, one of the biggest in the area, was famous in high school for having the most back-stabbing youth group. Despite their business mentality, they never thought to judge the product based on its functionality.

What Your Kids Won’t Learn

Davis Aurini has said before that Christians raise their daughters like sons and raise their sons like maidens. The boys, believing in an objective morality, delay sex for marriage, and the girls, believing in the unconditional forgiveness promised, fornicate with the non-Christians. And God forbid a girl is ever taught not to pursue a career or to submit to her husband’s authority.

Teenagers at church are taught very little about the differences between men and women other than that only men have a sex drive, because the parents—who pay the light bills—are in desperate denial that their daughters experience all seven deadly sins.

And the kids must be taught about human sexuality at church, because parents want to outsource their job to the church. Parents want their kids to have a strong sense of morality, but they don’t want to put the effort into instilling that morality themselves.

Kids are never told that women lose their ability to bond in sex some twenty times faster than men. They are never taught what Biblical masculinity and femininity looks like, and the blatant sexism in the Bible is apologized for and argued around. Your kids will be told that sex is something sacred but that they should save it until age 25.

From Edward Thatch's "Why Christian Men Don't Deserve Virgins"

From the comments section of Edward Thatch’s “Why Christian Men Don’t Deserve Virgins”

But that much is obvious. Another thing your kids will never learn is moderation. Instead they will be taught that they are unable to have self-control and must compensate. This is why Christian girls are absolutely terrified of men even when they are ready to marry.

It’s also the reason many Christians will say, “I don’t think alcohol is a sin, but I would never drink it because I don’t want to cause others to stumble. My great uncle was an alcoholic, so it runs in the family, and I wouldn’t be able to control myself after just one beer.”

Secular music often encourages un-Christian behavior, so churches provide a cheap substitute, assuming that the definition of rock n’ roll is distorted guitars. Christians assume that if you encounter a message, then you will come to believe it by mere osmosis. This Puritan misconception is not unlike the contemporary leftist thought policing.

Jesus Has A Plan

3

What a beautiful fairy tale castle cathedral!

Our society in general doesn’t place much stock in the notion of consequences. It’s as though people think they have a human right to not have their choices effect the outcome of their life. Churches have bought into this secularism with their preaching of Jesus’s forgiveness. He’s got a free gift of salvation. It won’t require anything from you!

The implication in promising free salvation is that there is nothing required on your end. So your daughter can whore herself around and believe that Jesus will forget all about it just as soon as she’s ready for Him to. And she’s also convinced that part of Jesus’s forgiveness involves still providing the plan for her that He’s had in mind from the beginning—namely that grand fairytale wedding.

Likewise, your son will believe that God will provide him with his fun, kind-hearted virgin bride in God’s own timing. Maybe that timing is when he’s 35, but God knows better than you, so don’t be complaining about your blue balls. And maybe that bride that God provides is a bit less than virginal or less than feminine or less than not divorced.

Doesn’t matter. God has a plan, and you need to marry that slut with the crushing law school debt. Can’t you see the signs? You happened to run into her at the store twice during the week after you first met her. Coincidences are God’s astrology.

Some of you may be thinking, “I was never taught any of that growing up in church! We just preached the Word.” That’s because the most dangerous things in garden-variety Christianity are not the direct teachings but the indirect. Just because nobody ever told you the words “self-esteem is a Biblical virtue” doesn’t mean that you didn’t internalize it from the attitudes surrounding you at church. And yes, often the lessons actually consumed completely contradict the lessons verbally spoken. It’s a broken system, like all things American.

For the rest of you, all that may sound like something from a bad preteen dystopian novel. It’s not. And unfortunately, they are a huge voting bloc, although the only real power they have today is keeping America in support of Israel’s apartheid.

Cafeteria Bible

Another great disservice your church will do to your kids is that, for all the talk about the importance of knowing the Bible, they are given a very skewed understanding of the Old Testament. Old Testament stories were taught to us as though they are fun children’s stories, like a real-life Snow White.

Then I got older and read about Gideon’s polygamy and paganism and David’s casual genocide when fighting as a mercenary for the Philistines. Apparently the Old Testament, in its attempt to be a detailed history of a time and place where only the fittest survived and human rights was the butt end of a tavern joke, is pretty bloody and hedonistic.

Turns out that the draconian morality in the Old Testament was just trying to make a stable civilization in a corner of the world with casual rape, sodomy, and infanticide being the Monday morning grind.

mrgod

Most adult Christians are vaguely aware of the rapey morality in the Old Testament, but few of them understand it, and pastors avoid the topic because it doesn’t mesh with the upbeat vibe of Sunday morning soft rock. Instead pastors just pretend it doesn’t exist, much as they do with the New Testament’s teaching about women shutting up in church.

Few Christians have read much of the Bible beyond isolated verses, and they are uninterested in reading any kind of Bible commentary or systematic theology because of the big words inside. Even seminaries have greatly watered down their curricula so that anyone with a call can change lives for the better or worse. I know more scripture blind drunk than most pastors do on a Sunday.

Christians today are panicking because that their kids grow up to dismiss the Bible as mere fairy tales, but they don’t realize that they themselves were the ones who taught the Bible like it was Dr. Seuss.

Conclusion

There are very few “good church girls” left, and even most virgin girls are drunk on modern secularist idealism. Meanwhile the boys buy into all the equality and soft feminism from their Sunday school teachers and thus come to believe that a real man is a kind and gentle white knight, someone who will sacrifice all of himself on a dime just like Jesus.

Therefore, if you want your kids to grow up with traditional morality, don’t take them to church.

Why women opposed women's suffrage

by noreply@blogger.com (Vox)
As is so often the case, the Left's historical revisionism of history would have us believe that women uniformly supported female suffrage. This is not true, in fact, a majority of women opposed it, and for the same reasons they should oppose it today:
The anti-suffragist organizations had the same numbers among women in America and the United Kingdom as the suffragist organizations, often even excluding men from joining. More women than men were opposed to women’s suffrage.... all of them feared the hell that would be spawned from complete women’s suffrage, namely the soft socialism we live in today.

Ultimate History Project writes,

    One year later, on April 3, 1914, [Theodore Roosevelt’s cousin-in-law Kate] Roosevelt’s diary mentions Mrs. Martin speaking at the home of Mrs. Henry Seligman, wife of the millionaire banker…According to the Times, Mrs. Martin proceeded to tear to tatters the great new cause. The audience listened to her demolition of the suffrage movement “We are not merely against feminism, but for the family. We cannot reconcile feminism and the family. We hope to hear the sound of women’s feet, walking away from the factory and back to the home.”

Notice the idea of suffrage is connected to women in careers. Ideas do not exist in isolation. The barefoot and pregnant Catholic housewife with five children is a far happier person than the sulky feminist writer who retires to squeeze out a retarded child in her late 30s conceived through in vitro.

Women often don’t transition well from the office to the home, becoming bored and listless after being used to the high energy (and germophobic) environment of work. Furthermore, the reason feminist writers think careers are fulfilling is because writing feminist literature is fun. Most women (and men) don’t have careers—they have jobs where they work at the grocery store and hate life.

This claim that women’s entrance into politics and the workforce would destroy the family was not merely the anti-suffrage position. The suffragists themselves admitted that a war between the sexes was a major reason they wanted the right to vote.

    Dr. Anna Shaw, President of the National American Women’s Suffrage Association called anti-suffragists the “home, hearth and mother crowd.”  Obviously, she was not interested in any of these identities.  When asked why there was no marriage in heaven, Dr. Shaw brazenly responded, “Because there are no men in heaven.” Like many suffragettes, she felt that men were not necessary and women, banding together could take care of themselves and live happily ever-after in a female-dominated world and after-life.
If you read the works of the anti-suffragettes and compare them to the works of the pro-suffragettes, you will rapidly reach the correct conclusion: the anti-suffragettes were right.

Voting is not freedom. And freedom is not best protected by democracy, especially not faux democracy of the sort that involve asking a majority female electorate which of the two con artists on offer they would most prefer to rule over them.

The Gates of Hell shall not prevail

by noreply@blogger.com (Vox)
Christians need to stop their cowardly cowering before the world and start actively following the fearless lead of the apostles and martyrs and crusaders and inquisitors who preceded them:
I spent a long time on the phone last night with a law professor at one of the country’s elite law schools. This professor is a practicing Christian, deeply closeted in the workplace; he is convinced that if his colleagues in academia knew of his faith, they would make it very hard for him. We made contact initially by e-mail — he is a reader of this blog — and last night, by phone. He agreed to speak with me about the Indiana situation on condition that I not identify him by name or by institution. I do know his identity, and when he tells me that he is “well-informed about the academy and the Supreme Court,” I assure you that from where he sits, and teaches, and from his CV, he is telling the truth.

I will call him Prof. Kingsfield, after the law professor in The Paper Chase.

What prompted his reaching out to me? “I’m very worried,” he said, of events of the last week. “The constituency for religious liberty just isn’t there anymore.”

Like me, what unnerved Prof. Kingsfield is not so much the details of the Indiana law, but the way the overculture treated the law. “When a perfectly decent, pro-gay marriage religious liberty scholar like Doug Laycock, who is one of the best in the country — when what he says is distorted, you know how crazy it is.”

“Alasdair Macintyre is right,” he said. “It’s like a nuclear bomb went off, but in slow motion.” What he meant by this is that our culture has lost the ability to reason together, because too many of us want and believe radically incompatible things.

But only one side has the power.... A college professor who is already tenured is probably safe. Those who aren’t tenured, are in danger. Those who are believed to be religious, or at least religious in ways the legal overculture believes constitutes bigotry, will likely never be hired. For example, the professor said, he was privy to the debate within a faculty hiring meeting in which the candidacy of a liberal Christian was discussed. Though the candidate appeared in every sense to be quite liberal in her views, the fact that she was an open Christian prompted discussion as to whether or not the university would be hiring a “fundamentalist.”

The result could be that religious schools have to start policing orthodoxy in terms of all their hires — a situation imposing standards far more strict than many schools may wish to live by, but which may be necessary to protect the school’s legal interests.

Kingsfield said homeschooling, and homeschooling-ish things (e.g., co-ops), are going to become increasingly important to orthodox Christians, especially as they see established religious schools folding on this issue.

Businesses, however, are going to have a very hard time resisting what’s coming. Not that they would try. “The big companies have already gone over,” said Kingsfield.

“Most anti-discrimination laws have a certain cut off – they don’t apply if you have 15 employees or less,” he said. “You could have an independent, loosely affiliated network of artisans, working together. If you can refer people to others within the network, that could work. You won’t be able to scale up, but that’s not such a bad thing.”

Kingsfield said religious colleges and universities are going to have to think hard about their identities.

“Colleges that don’t receive federal funding – Hillsdale and Grove City are two I can think of – are going to be in better position, because federal regulations force a lot of crazy stuff on you,” he said. “I think it would be really wise for small religious institutions to think hard if they can cut the cord of federal funding and can find wealthy donors to step in.”

Kingsfield said we are going to have to watch closely the way the law breaks regarding gender identity and transgenderism. If the courts accept the theory that gender is a social construct — and there is a long line of legal theory and jurisprudence that says that it is — then the field of antidiscrimination law is bound to be expanded to cover, for example, people with penises who consider themselves women. The law, in other words, will compel citizens to live as if this were true — and religious liberty will, in general, be no fallback. This may well happen.

What about the big issue that is on the minds of many Christians who pay attention to this fight: the tax-exempt status of churches and religious organizations? Will they be Bob Jones’d over gay rights?

Kingsfield said that this is too deeply embedded in American thought and law to be at serious risk right now, but gay rights proponents will probably push to tie the tax exemption on charities with how closely integrated they are within churches. The closer schools and charities are tied to churches, especially in their hiring, the greater protection they will enjoy.

The accreditation issue is going to be a much stickier wicket. Accreditation is tied to things like the acceptance of financial aid, and the ability to get into graduate schools.

“There was a professor at Penn last year who wrote an article in the Chronicle of Higher Education calling for the end of accrediting religious colleges and universities,” Kingsfield said. “It was a Richard Dawkins kind of thing, just crazy. The fact that someone taking a position this hostile felt very comfortable putting this in the Chronicle tells me that there’s a non-trivial number of professors willing to believe this.”

Gordon College has faced pressure from a regional accrediting authority over its adherence to traditional Christian sexual morals re: gay rights.

“Accreditation is critical to being admitted to law schools and medical schools,” Kingsfield said. “College accreditation will matter for some purposes of sports, federal aid, and for the ability to be admitted by top graduate schools. Ghettoization for Christians could be the result.”

“In California right now, judges can’t belong to the Boy Scouts now. Who knows if in the future, lawyers won’t be able to belong to churches that are considered hate groups?” he said. “It’s certainly true that a lot of law firms will not now hire people who worked on cases defending those on the traditional marriage side. It’s going to close some professional doors. I certainly wouldn’t write about this stuff in my work, not if I wanted to have a chance at tenure. There’s a question among Christian law professors right now: do you write about these issues and risk tenure? This really does distort your scholarship. Christianity could make a distinct contribution to legal discussions, but it’s simply too risky to say what you really think.”

The emerging climate on campus of microaggressions, trigger warnings, and the construal of discourse as a form of violence is driving Christian professors further into the closet, the professor said.

“If I said something that was construed as attacking a gay student, I could have my life made miserable with a year or two of litigation — and if I didn’t have tenure, there could be a chance that my career would be ruined,” he said. “Even if you have tenure, a few people who make allegations of someone being hateful can make a tenured professor’s life miserable.”

“What happened to Brendan Eich” — the tech giant who was driven out of Mozilla for having made a small donation years earlier to the Prop 8 campaign — “is going to start happening to a lot of people, and Christians had better be ready for it. The question I keep thinking about is, why would we want to do that to people? But that’s where we are now.”

I pointed out that the mob hysteria that descended on Memories Pizza, the mom & pop pizza shop in small-town Indiana that had to close its doors (temporarily, one hopes) after its owners answered a reporter’s question truthfully, is highly instructive to the rest of us.

“You’re right,” he said. “Memories Pizza teaches us all a lesson. What is the line between prudently closing our mouths and closeting ourselves, and compromising our faith? Christians have to start thinking about that seriously.”

“We have to fall back to defensive lines and figure out where those lines are. It’s not going to be persecution like the older Romans, or even communist Russia,” he added. “But what’s coming is going cause a lot of people to fall away from the faith, and we are going to have to be careful about how we define and clarify what Christianity is.... The most important question for Christians parents to ask themselves is, do we have a vibrant church?,” he said. “Sadly, only a small number of places have them. My family is in one. Our kids are growing up with good examples that they can look up to, and good older kids who hang on because they can stand together.”

Some people taking the Benedict Option will head for the hills, Kingsfield said, but that will be a trivial number, and that won’t be an answer for most of us.

“We need to study more the experience of Orthodox Jews and Amish,” he said. “None of us are going to be living within an eruv or practicing shunning. What we should focus on is endogamy.”

Endogamy means marriage only within a certain clan or in-group.

“Intermarriage is death,” Kingsfield said. “Not something like Catholic-Orthodox, but Christian-Jew, or high church-low church. I just don’t think Christians are focused on that, but the Orthodox Jews get it. They know how much this matters in creating a culture in which transmitting the faith happens. For us Christians, this is going to mean matchmaking and youth camps and other things like that. It probably means embracing a higher fertility rate, and celebrating bigger families.”
It's time for the church leaders and the heads of Christian families to start learning from #GamerGate, to start learning from Sad Puppies, and start leading. Start banding together and stop accommodating the secular world in any way. Don't hire those who hate you. Don't buy from those who wish to destroy you. Don't work with those who denigrate your faith, your traditions, your morals, and your God. Don't tolerate or respect what passes for their morals and values.

Religious liberty in America is dead. Well and good. That was a fatal mistake by the other side, because now that they don't respect our religious liberty, we have no reason or responsibility to respect theirs. Now it's just a raw power struggle and we have the numbers, we have the indomitable will of the martyrs, and we have the certain knowledge of God on our side.

They have nothing but the carnal desires to which they are enslaved and the Prince of this fallen world, who has already been defeated by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Their world is post-Christian, post-rational, post-modern, post-morality, and post-law. It is absolutely doomed to failure of every kind, beginning with demographics.

So stop cowering. Stop hiding in the closet. Stop trying to play by outdated rules that are no longer in effect. They imposed the new rules on us, now let's prove that we can play much better by them. What they don't realize is that those rules were in place for THEIR protection, not for ours. It's time to teach them the value and importance of religious liberty again.

We are not given a spirit of fear. We are the sons and daughters of the Crusades and of the Inquisitions, institutions so terrible that they strike terror in human hearts nearly one thousand years later. We are the heirs of Christendom. They cannot defeat us and they cannot defeat our Lord. Augustus and the pagan emperors of Rome failed. The Ottoman emperors failed. The French Revolutionaries failed. The Communist killers of Spain, the Soviet Union, and China failed. The post-Christian seculars of the latter-day USA will fail too.

And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

No Such Thing as Sacrilege in the West

by Arthur Richard Harrison

When Pussy Riot invaded Christ the Saviour Cathedral, center of the Russian Orthodox Church, to perform its blasphemous concert and Western leaders reacted with outrage to their entirely justified arrest, Abbot Tryphon of All-Merciful Savior Monastery in Washington remarked that there was now “no such thing as sacrilege in the West.” Every day he is proved more and more thoroughly right.

It has come to my attention, admittedly rather late, that the Cathedral of the Holy Virgin Protection in New York City, a Cathedral of the Orthodox Church in America, to which I belong—the only autocephalous Eastern Orthodox Church headquartered in the United States—hosted, near the end of January, a sort of concert. At this concert, representatives of all the local religions in the East Village, including Catholics, Protestants, Jews, Hindus, and even Muslims (though these last apparently mistook the date and therefore were not in attendance), were invited to come and perform music in the Cathedral, as a kind of show of mutual affection or something.

I suppose in addition to “No such thing as sacrilege,” we can now say that, even for the Orthodox, at least in the East Village, there is no such thing as sacred space in the West. Anglicans have become famous for letting Muslims use their churches as houses of worship—and why not? If, in fact, a church is just a building, and if you worship on Sunday while the Muslims worship on Friday, what could possibly be objectionable in sharing the space?

Except that a church isn’t just a building. “Make not My Father’s house an house of merchandise,” said Our Lord. Why not? Because a temple must be a place set apart for particular people and a particular purpose—to use it for anything else defiles it. To let anyone in who is not part of that purpose defiles it.

In the West, it’s not just our temples that are no longer sacred—it’s our homelands. It’s our homes themselves. Everything must be shared with everyone. It doesn’t matter if our homeland is lost—it’s just dirt, no better or worse than any other dirt. It doesn’t matter if our people are replaced—they’re just Social Security contributors, no better than the Social Security contributors being imported to replace them.

The spirit of equality is fundamentally opposed to the idea of sanctity. Equality wants a mass of identical men, none set apart from the others, while sanctity fundamentally means the state of being set apart. When nothing is special, when nothing is our own, nothing is sacred to us.

For everything that is sacred must be sacred to someone in particular—something we monotheists are perhaps apt to forget and something of which a saint has occasionally reminded us by declaring something sacred to himself (I think in particular of St. Cuthbert and the birds).

A people that cannot preserve the sanctity—that is, the exclusivity—of its temples cannot preserve the exclusivity—that is, the sanctity—of its homeland. There is no longer any such thing as sacrilege in the West. Unless that changes there will no longer be such a thing as the West—just another part of the world, “just as good as any other part.”

Why Modern Leftists Are Fascists

by Jon Trask
1

Fascist movements are implicitly utopian because they—like communist and heretical Christian movements—assume that with just the right arrangement of policies, all contradictions can be rectified.  This is a political siren song; life can never be made perfect, because man is imperfect. (Goldberg 130)

Far too often socialism and communism are compared to what is currently the political embodiment of the modern leftist ideology in the U.S. These leftist and communist ideas include anti-capitalism, total destruction of the individual in favor of the state, and big government takeover.  We have all heard this stereotype.

However, I think there is a far more accurate political ideology floating in the minds of modern leftists, thirsty for revolution to take down “the man” and change the “bourgeois system.” I am speaking of fascism.

“What!!” you say as you spit out your soy latte.

“Fascism is reserved only for evil white conservative men who spout evil fascist rhetoric like small government, individualism, self-reliance, capitalism, less dependency on government, traditionalism, and self-responsibility with strong ties to self-sustaining autonomous Christian family units!!!”

Slow down, Che, put down the vegan burger and let me explain…

After peeling back some layers and layers of Orwellian leftist language and indoctrination that fascism is of the evil American Right, closer examination reveals startling comparisons to the modern American leftist.

Fascism could not be any further from the American conservative (Classical Liberalism at it’s heart).  Very few realize that fascism by its very nature was an extremely leftist populist movement taking root in Mussolini’s Italy and spreading like wild fire throughout Europe.

History of fascism

Fascism was born out of socialism (the prized ideology among the left) and was an evolved state-centric version of socialism which became popular around the early to mid 1900s. It was “new” and full of revolutionary change.  Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini (a name consisting almost entirely of Socialist revolutionaries) was raised a charismatic Italian Socialist (his Socialist father being a huge influence on him) (Goldberg 31).

After Mussolini incorporated socialism and nationalism within Italy, fascism spread quickly (without much pretense to race that would come later with German Nazism). Fascism would eventually compete with International Socialism for the young revolutionary, the working man, the poor, and the masses in places such as Germany, France, and Italy.

State conformity reigns supreme under fascism

To many individuals, fascism state-centric ideology seemed far more of a “working system” rather than that delusional idea of “uniting the workers of the world”, which was the motto of the International Socialist. With fascism, as with all large bloated governments that leftists think can cure all our qualms, the utopian lie is propagated by the state which supposedly aims to build a communal National Socialism state-sponsored family.

Fascism was to transcend class differences exactly like socialism preached. Below are first-hand accounts according to working class Germans and their views on Hitler’s Nationalist Socialist ideas:

…Though I was interested in the betterment of the workingman’s plight, I rejected Marxism unconditionally.  I often asked myself why socialism had to be tied up with internationalism- why it could not work as well or better in conjunction with nationalism’. Another German states ‘I shuddered at the thought of Germany in the grip of Bolshevism.  The slogan ‘Workers of the World Unite!’ made no sense to me.  At the same time, however, National Socialism with its promise of community…barring all class struggle, attracted me profoundly’.  Another German stated they embraced Nazism because of the ‘uncompromising will to stamp out the class struggle, snobberies of caste and party hatreds.  The movement bore the true message of socialism to the German workingman. (Goldberg 74)

Below are key points from Mussolini and the Fasci di Combattimento (a Fascist organization created by Mussolini) circa 1919  (Goldberg 46):

  • The abolition of the senate and the creation of a national technical council on intellectual and manual labor, industry, commerce and culture
  • The creation of various government bodies run by worker’s representatives
  • The obligation of the state to build “rigidly secular” schools for the raising of “the proletariat’s moral and cultural condition”

All of this seems like the modern American leftist’s wet dream. Modern American leftist rhetoric is far closer to fascism than the American right’s strong stress on individualism, capitalism, and reduced government intervention.

Nazis were huge proponents of animal welfare and a vegetarian lifestyle, did someone say PETA?

Fascism, a party of the left

Fascism stressed huge state governments. This huge fascist government included expanding health services, enforcing anti-elitism, wealth-confiscation, and secularism (Goldberg 46) all in the name of the state and the common good.  Fascism offered “anti-bourgeois, anti-capitalistic, and anti-individualist nationalism” (Sternhell 214-220).

The state was always before the individual under fascism; taking from some and redistributing to the many.  This is the core of modern American leftist ideology.  Many parallels of fascism are closely similar to Obamacare (expanding health services), higher taxes among the elite and wealthy (wealth confiscation), and the most recent; the fascist power grab, by the FCC “Net Neutrality” rules (anti-capitalist).

To illustrate this comparison further, let’s look at just a few of the Nazi Party’s key points (Goldberg  411):

  • We demand the nationalization of all (previous) associated industries (trusts).
  • We demand a division of profits of all heavy industries.
  • The first obligation of every citizen must be to work both spiritually and physically.  The activity of individuals is not to counteract the interests of the universality, but must have its result within the framework of the whole for the benefit of all.

I can’t tell the difference when the Nazi points end and the American leftist points begin.  Not to mention, affirmative action (prized among the left) is just race privilege enforced by government intervention.  Affirmative action is similar to the notorious government enforced Aryan privilege in Nazi Germany regardless of skill.

Historic dangers of the left

In all leftist extremes, be it communism, Nazism, socialism, or Fascism; murder, violence, and censorship are sure to be the eventual outcome of huge government. It is a historic pattern and if history is cyclical, which I believe it is, we are at the beginning of what will be the eventual violence found among extreme Leftist purity tactics dating back to the French Revolution (Jacboins), up through Soviet Russia (Bolsheviks), Ukraine, and Communist China.

Nothing has been more devastating and dangerous politically in the 20th century than leftist thought. If we look at 20th century communism alone we come to a whopping 85-100 million worldwide that perished under such leftist regimes, not to mention the censorship, labor camps, violation of civil liberties, and imprisonment.

One should think of fascism not as the complete opposite of socialism and communism, but yet another kindred spirit in extreme leftist political ideologies that were competing for the hearts and minds of the populous.  Not much has changed with fascist ideology of collectivism (another prized belief of the left) were individual twigs bundle together to make a strong piece of collective wood.

Allow this article to be a possible warning sign of modern day ideology, as their quest will devolve into a loss of civility and violence as we move farther and farther left. As the left ideologies become more and more resembling a preacher preaching piety from the pulpit, “action” will be the next conclusive step.  Peel back the leftist Orwellian language with nice sounding words like “Obamacare” and “Net Neutrality” to expose it for what it really is; fascist policies and huge government takeover in a pretty wrapper.

The beginning of the end

Whatever the case, one should keep in mind that socialism, communism, fascism, and Nazism all are of the left; they were just different factions of the left. What is occurring in the U.S. today is not that different from what occurred in Europe some years ago. Though it may be much slower and softer, “American” Fascism echoes European Fascism and is rooted in this very ideology.

Keep this in mind when you are sitting in your cube at the Ministry of Truth, hunched over your keyboard, editing and bowdlerizing Wikipedia pages for “the party”; just remember this article and the quintessential fascist party ideology:

…(the) quest to create an all-caring, all-powerful, all-encompassing state, a state that assumes responsibility for every desirable outcome and takes the blame for every setback on the road to utopia, a state that finally replaces God (Goldberg 20)

“But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.”

Do not become the protagonist of 1984. Let’s keep fiction for the books and reality for us here in America. The philosophical and political fate of the country depends on it.

How To Be Masculine Like The Zaporozhian Cossacks

by Peter Burns
Kubanskie_kazaki_2

In 1615, a fleet of 80 Zaporozhian Cossack boats, called chaiky, slipped into the harbor of Constantinople and razed the entire area around the harbor to the ground. This was the culmination of a hundred years of naval raids that the Cossacks were conducting against various ports of the Ottoman Empire.

At that time, the Ottoman Empire was the most powerful state in Europe and was on the offensive on all fronts. That did not deter the Cossacks. They were fearless and in subsequent years conducted a few more raids on Ottoman ports. The bigger the challenge, the more likely they were to attempt it. The Zaporozhians were not afraid to take risks, even doing things that seemed impossible.

The year following that raid on Constantinople, they raided the port of Trebizond. The Ottoman Sultan sent a fleet to the mouth of the Dnieper River in order to try to destroy their fleet. However in a show of the ultimate “f*%k you,” the Cossacks who were returning from their successful raid decided to turn around and once again attacked Constantinople. They caused a lot of havoc, even rampaging through the official palace of the Sultan himself.

Brave warriors who cherished their freedom

The Cossacks were brave warriors who cherished their freedom. They had a strict code of honor and valued courage above all else. A Venetian envoy once compared them to the Spartans, only more drunk: “This republic (the Zaporozhian Sich) could be compared to the Spartan, if the Cossacks respected sobriety as highly as did the Spartans.”

The Cossacks learned how to endure many hardships from early on. Their code of honor preached that they always needed to help a friend in trouble. They would often sacrifice themselves in order to save others. Their skills and abilities in horsemanship and with different arms (swords, guns) were legendary.

They could crawl up on an enemy undetected, as well as charge on horseback gun in hand, being able to hit a far-away target with exact precision. They could ride a horse, go on long marches, but also take an oar in hands and battle on the sea. The Cossacks were masters of multiple ways of warfare.

History of the Zaporozhian Cossacks

There were various types of Cossacks. This essay will focus on the Ukrainian Cossacks, particularly the Cossacks of the Zaporozhian Sich. These were probably the most freedom loving and the fiercest of all the Cossack groups.

The first Cossack communities began forming on the wild Ukrainian steppes around the Dnieper River. Many Ukrainian peasants, outlaws, clergy, even nobles began trying to escape from the harsh rule of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and joined people already inhabiting the area called the Wild Fields. This was a virtual no-man’s land stuck between the lands controlled by the Poles, Russians and the Crimean Tatars.

There they could live free. In order to protect themselves, they began to form fortified camps, one of which was founded on the island of Khortytsia in an area called “beyond the rapids,” Zaporozhie. This was the start of the Zaporozhian Cossacks.

The Zaporozhian society was one based on freedom. Anyone from any walk of life could come in and join the Cossacks. Every Cossack was considered a free man. Their system also relied on elections. All officers were elected for a one year term. This was quite a difference from other systems in Europe at that time, where power was based on feudal relationships. For a Zaporozhian, his freedom was sacred.

Атака_запорожцев_в_степи

Soon after their foundation, the Zaporozhian Cossacks began making raids on the territories of the Crimean Tatars, capturing booty and freeing the slaves. The Cossack way of life also began spreading into the lands controlled by the Polish.

The Poles saw this development and quickly adapted to it, setting up an institution known as the Registered Cossacks. They noticed the advantages of having these types of formations in their armies, especially when guarding their frontier. The Registered Cossacks formed several units in the armies of the Commonwealth. However thousands more unregistered Cossacks continued to exist as well.

What is very important to note about the Cossacks is the fluidity of their identity. Different people floated between the different Cossack groups and it was very easy to join them. While the Ukrainian ethnic predominated among them, the Cossacks were also sometimes joined by Poles, Jews, Moldovans, Tatars, Russians, and Germans from all walks of life, from escaped serfs to nobles.

More and more, the Zaporozhian Cossacks began allying themselves with the Eastern Orthodox clergy and the Ukrainian peasantry, forming a sort of proto-national movement of the Ukrainians.

The Khmelnitsky uprising

All these class, national, and religious conflicts culminated in the figure of Bohdan Khmelnitsky and his uprising. In 1648, Khmelnitsky rose up against the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Quickly thereafter, he was elected as the Hetman of the Cossacks and led their armies in the fight. The battles were quite bloody and led to heavy losses on both sides.

In 1654, Khmelnitsky made the fateful decision to ally himself with the Russian tsar and signed the Treaty of Peryaslav. This led to the creation of the Cossack Hetmanate, an independent Cossack state, allied with Russia.

This was not to last long however. Ten years after the death of Khmelnitsky, the Hetmanate as an entity spanning both sides of the Dnieper was no more. In 1667, Russia and Poland signed the Treaty of Andrusovo, which divided up the Hetmanate between themselves, forming a Right-Bank Ukraine (for Poland) and a Left-Bank Ukraine (for Russia), each country taking the Cossacks who inhabited those territories for themselves.

The Left-Bank Hetmanate joined the Sloboda Ukraine territory as Cossack territories falling under the Russian tsar. Cossack Hetmans continued to be elected, however now they had to fall under the authority of the Russian tsar.

To the south of those lands, the territories of the Zaporozhian Sich continued to exist, stretching from central Ukraine, through the territories of today’s Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporozhia and Donetsk oblasts all the way to areas above the Sea of Azov. These territories, while in Russian orbit, retained a lot of their independence and served as a beacon of hope for all oppressed Ukrainian peasants.

The Ruin

The period after the death of Khmelnitsky is known by the Ukrainians as the “Ruin.” The entire territory descended into chaos, as the Poles, the Russians and the Ottoman Turks (and their allies the Crimean Tatars), were all vying for supremacy. The Cossacks fought on all sides of the conflict, sometimes switching sides, but oftentimes different Cossack groups standing against each other on the opposite fields of battle.

While the other Cossack lands became more and more repressed, the Cossacks of the Zaporozhian Sich still continued to retain a lot of their freedoms. They were fierce warriors who would never back down from a challenge and continued to guard their territories with a huge ferocity, knowing that they were not fighting just for themselves, but for their comrades as well.

How to be a bad-ass

The Zaporozhian Cossacks were also bad-asses who took no shit from anybody. In 1676, the Zaporozhian Sich was led by Ivan Sirko, who had been elected as their kosh otaman. In that year, they won a battle against the Ottoman armies, however the Sultan decided to bring more troops into the Ukraine and subjugate the entire country.

He sent the Zaporozhian Cossacks this letter:

“Sultan Mehmed IV to the Zaporozhian Cossacks:

As the Sultan; son of Muhammad; brother of the sun and moon; grandson and viceroy of God; ruler of the kingdoms of Macedonia, Babylon, Jerusalem, Upper and Lower Egypt; emperor of emperors; sovereign of sovereigns; extraordinary knight, never defeated; steadfast guardian of the tomb of Jesus Christ; trustee chosen by God Himself; the hope and comfort of Muslims; confounder and great defender of Christians – I command you, the Zaporozhian Cossacks, to submit to me voluntarily and without any resistance, and to desist from troubling me with your attacks.

–Turkish Sultan Mehmed IV”

The Cossacks sat down and wrote a reply:

“Zaporozhian Cossacks to the Turkish Sultan!

O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil’s kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are you, that can’t slay a hedgehog with your naked ass? The devil excretes, and your army eats. You will not, you son of a bitch, make subjects of Christian sons; we’ve no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck your mother.

You Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, pig of Armenia, Podolian thief, catamite of Tartary, hangman of Kamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig’s snout, mare’s ass, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw your own mother!

So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won’t even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we’ll conclude, for we don’t know the date and don’t own a calendar; the moon is in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day is the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our ass!

– Koshovyi Otaman Ivan Sirko, with the whole Zaporozhian Host”

The Zaporozhian Cossacks were not afraid of anyone and were willing to fight to the death to defend their freedom. More than 200 years later, Ilya Repin, a Russian painter, would immortalize this moment in a painting.

The Mazepa Uprising and the Bendery Constitution

Life under the Russian tsar was harsh, as little by little the traditional rights of the Ukrainian Cossacks were taken away. In 1709, the Russian tsar was locked in a war with Sweden. The Cossack Hetman of Left-Bank Ukraine Ivan Mazepa, who until now had been very pro-Russian, however decided to take one last gamble on the independence of the Ukraine and the Cossacks and rebelled against the Russian Empire.

He allied himself with the Swedish King who was campaigning in the Ukraine. The Zaporozhian Cossacks immediately joined the forces of Mazepa.

The rebellion was short-lived, as the combined Swedish and Cossack forces were defeated by the Russian army at the Battle of Poltava. The Swedish King, Mazepa and a few thousand Cossacks (some from the Hetmanate, but most being Zaporozhians) escaped to the town of Bendery in today’s Moldova, then controlled by the Ottomans.

Mazepa2

Shortly thereafter, Ivan Mazepa died in exile. After his death, the Cossacks did not give up, but continued to struggle to keep their freedom. The Bendery exile period resulted in one piece of very remarkable history. In 1710, the newly elected Hetman, Pylyp Orlyk, wrote the Constitution of the Zaporozhian Host.

It was one of the oldest democratic constitutions in Europe and established the separation of powers between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government, many years before Montesquieu and way before the American Constitution.

End of the Zaporozhian Host

From then on, the Ukrainian Cossacks remained under Russian rule. The Zaporozhian Host managed to survive until 1775, when Russian Empress Catherine II ordered a sneak attack on their fort, razing the Sich to the ground. The Cossack Hetmanate was dissolved a few years later.

This ended the free privileges of the Zaporozhian Cossacks, but did not spell the end of the Cossacks. The Cossacks themselves survived and most importantly their legacy lived on. Their courage and love of freedom served as examples to be emulated and their stories continue to be retold from generation to generation.
