Dump The NAP

 Words are important.  They are in fact the most important things in our lives.

Therefore, our choices of wording is perforce important, and to that point I would turn your attention to that which has come to be known as the Non-Aggression Principle, AKA the "NAP".  While the spirit of the NAP is righteous, the choice of "aggression" in the moniker is quite unfortunate.  It states that the initiation of aggression is always a bad thing with no moral or princi[pled validity.  This particular architecture of the concept fails on the basis of its simplistic construction, a common problem with many ideas.  Because of this, I have witnessed endless examples of the gross misapprehension of "aggression", more specifically the assessment of its initiation, such that some of those cases tap dance right past the absurd.

As often, it serves us well to consult the dictionary for definitions of "aggression".  To wit:

AGGRESSION, n. The first act of injury; an attack; and assault. - Worcester English Dictionary, 1860


AGGRESSION, n. The first act of injury.  -Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of 1785

 

AGGRESSION, n. The first attack, or act of hostility; the first act of injury, or first act leading to a war or a controversy; unprovoked attack; assault; as, a war of aggression.  - Webster's Unabridged Dictionary


From just these entries we can see that "aggression" is a rather broad term.  It may connote physical acts, verbal, or simply the perception of conditions such as one's posture, choice of words, etc.


Words are important.  Therefore, and because the term "aggression" seems to evade far too many in terms of a sufficiently precise meaning, I suggest leaving that term in the rear view mirror in favor of "transgression".   Once more, the dictionary comes to our aid:

TRANSGRESSION, n. The act of transgressing, or of passing over or beyond any law, civil or moral; the violation of a law or known principle of rectitude; breach of command; fault; offense; crime; sin. 


Here we see a term whose meaning always connotes and impropriety or crime, which is to say that a transgression is always deemed as wrong, whereas with aggression it is not always the case.  Transgression is always incorrect as a matter of definition, whereas aggression is not.  It is the fact of the latter that we run into the problem of semantics.  Let us illustrate with an example.

Siblings have their moments.  Janey irritates Johnny in some manner and Johnny blithely lets her know "I'm going to murder you".  Kids say the darnedest things.  In all good likelihood Johnny was not to be taken literally, and so Janey's retrieval of dad's revolver, whereby she holds Johnny at bay until police arrive is probably not justified.  And yet, Johnny uttered words that under differing circumstances might justly see him interred.  Words are important, but so is context.  

A further example may be found in a military action.  Intelligence establishes that terrorists are making bombs at a given location in a foreign land. It further indicates that those bombs will be used to slaughter innocent civilians pursuant to a political objective, which is the very definition of "terrorism".  In such a case, the initiation of aggression through air strikes designed and intended to kill the entirety of the terrorist population is completely justifiable, even though said terrorists have not yet acted upon their intentions to murder innocents.

A stranger on the street by some means gives you cause to suspect they have violent intentions toward you.  In response, you preemptively draw your sidearm and either hold them at bay for police, or if deemed necessary you shoot their carcass out from under their hat.  You have aggressed, yet have committed no crime or other offense against another because you acted in self defense even though your would-be attacker had not yet made his definitive move.

Replacing "aggression" with "transgression" eliminates this wobbly semantic space in the idea due to the extremely broad spectrum of the meaning of "aggression", whereas under no circumstance is it acceptable from a morally principled standpoint of the "western" variety to transgress against another precisely because the term connotes criminality as a matter of pure definition.  But aggression at times is not only acceptable, it is advisable as the examples illustrate.

Words are important.  Human communication is devilish tricky even under the best of circumstances.  Let us not further cultivate bewilderment to the detriment of understanding not only what we say to one another, but that of what is expected of us in terms of the aforementioned principles, which is a really big deal.

Transgression covers it all, and does so unambiguously, whereas "aggression" is a far more vague term prone to widely differing opinions as to what precisely defines it.  No man holds the right to transgress against another, whereas under conditions one may indeed hold proper authority to initiate aggression in the face of a looming, yet veiled threat.

Have I mentioned that words are important?

Be well, be prosperous, be worthy, be proper, and as always, until next time please accept my best wishes.

Behold The Four Vices

Behold the Four Vices: Fear, Avarice, Ignorance, Lassitude (FAIL). 

In their proper measures, these are actually strengths - qualities and characteristics of human beings that aid in our survival as individuals and as a species. But when misapplied in proportion or circumstance, they become erosive and even destructive of the good in our lives, and often to those of the people around us.

Proper fear is the means by which people avoid injuring or even killing themselves, or each other without justice.  Being fearful of one's own maiming or destruction is what prevents the sound man from committing acts that lead to same, as well as the acts of others that would likely produce practically identical results. But when fear becomes an overriding, paralyzing factor, life becomes nightmarish where we no longer find ourselves able to navigate its waters to such a degree that we degrade into a state of mere existence when the degree reaches such a pitch.

In its proper proportion, our right and proper avarice provides the motive force that impels us to pursue the manifold goals that tend to lead to the continuance of our lives, and in many cases to improve our condition.  But when gone morbid, it blinds us to what is important in life.  Greed run amok turns us into creatures of compulsion where all we choose to see is quantity over quality and our senses become dulled most ironically through the hyper focus that arises due to the compulsion to acquire, no matter who gets hurt.

Ignorance is almost universally viewed very negatively, and yet there are many instances where it actually serves as a positive factor in given situations as a lubricant and even aiding in incentivizing us to move in a given direction.  There are things that remain better hidden from our understanding.  Likewise, there are other things the knowledge of which edifies our lives and lends to us the ability to think clearly, sufficiently, smartly, and with good authority.  Ignorance of that which we are better served possessing is a cruelty to ourselves, to others, and as often as not proves itself the danger that it truly is.

Lassitude : the need to rest.  Without it, our lives become bleak, grim.  But when lassitude sets into our bones in false measure, it becomes as a cancer that eats away at our drive to achieve sometimes even the most fundamental of human objectives.  People so stricken waste away in ways similar to those afflicted with physical diseases.

And so we see once again that all things have their places, whether viewed as being positive factors or otherwise.  But the value of a given thing in our lives is not determined by the pure nature of it alone.  Equally important is the measure in which it is taken, as well as the timing and the circumstance.

In all things, context is king.

Until next time, please accept my best wishes.

Become The Worst Nightmare Of The Tyrants

There are those people who naively believe that the Constitution protects their rights.  They are dangerously mistaken.
Consider what happened to Kyle Rittenhouse. He shot and killed one man, quite righteously, and blew a good bit of another's arm away, also with propriety pursuant to his right to defend his life against destruction, in his case at the hands of a raging mob. Though he was acquitted, look at what he was put through by the "system" that ostensibly exists to protect his rights equally with those of all other people. He should never have been charged in the first place, but the local prosecutor, one Thomas Binger, is a corrupt Democrat who aimed to make political points upon Rittenhouse's bones. The Constitution failed to protect Rittenhouse from malicious prosecution, and the fact that he was acquitted makes no hay in mitigation of that fact. Rittenhouse's acquittal was a pure crap shoot. He could as easily been convicted and the Constitution would have been nowhere, far too many people content to say "the system worked". It worked alright, the way a car that's about to throw a rod through the engine block works. The system failed up front and that is the salient fact. Binger should since have been disbarred, disgraced, charged, tried, convicted, and at the very least sentenced to life in prison with no possibility of parole for his vicious and malevolent choice of action. The facts of the case were clear and he knew them, yet chose to bring charges anyway on the apparent assumption that he would scam the trial, secure a conviction, and parade around as the champion of Wisconsin justice for all his friends on the left, no matter how utterly he destroyed the life of an innocent young man. For that, I would have no problem seeing him pay ignominiously with his life on the gallows.

Some have claimed that the people burning cities were "protesting.  The "protesters" were committing felonies, yet there are those who mean to suggest that rioting is free speech, an inescapable implication of their stated positions on the matter. Then there are those who blindly assert that Trump is acting in violation of the Constitution. Based on what, exactly? They never say with anything specific, much less convincing. They tend to offer only vagaries that demonstrate themselves as non-credible, prima facie. Thus far every step Trump has taken has been right down the middle, which is precisely why nobody has been able to stop him. Given the fearsome levels of hatred for Trump by those on the left who have wielded vast material power, if he were to make even a single false move in terms of his presidential prerogatives, his hide would be tacked to the barn door in an instant. Presidential power is a two-edged sword, that much anyone with an IQ should be able to readily perceive. That does not, however, succeed in impeaching Trump's actions to date. It only demonstrates that as with any tool, it can be used for weal or woe.

What so many seem to be missing is the fact that those in positions of Public Trust are not the solution. We are. We are "government", and not those holding political positions, who are mere administrators in whom we have vested our trust to discharge their duties with honorable faith and good competence. When they violate that trust, we are obliged by all that is humanly correct to remove them from their positions, hold them accountable for their misdeeds, and punish them with grim severity commensurate with their crimes. Long prison terms under the most basic conditions and turns at the gallows are all that such people understand and respect as matters of the personality type, generally speaking. Until we cut the crap and start acting like adults who take their responsibilities to themselves and their fellows seriously, nothing is going to change for the better over the longer term. The time for enlightened self-interest is upon us and the time is here for we Americans to choose. Trump will one day leave office and then what? The next scoundrel comes in and undoes everything that was achieved? The only constant in all this political coming and going is us. We the people remain as Theye pass in and out of power. We abide. We hold the actual power, which seemingly belongs to the political class only by virtue of the fact that we comply with the orders of our servants against us, no matter that those order may be or how absurdly criminal. We are the masters, but in order to be that, we must act like it, which means no more blind compliance with the blatantly criminalistic orders and regulations that issue, once again to beat a dead horse, from servants. Is anyone not clear on this?

Until we take the bull by the balls and teach it who is actually boss in simple language that anyone can understand no matter how mentally or morally deficient they may be, we will continue riding the roller coaster of tyranny and political crime.

I would start with a fitting 28th Amendment. It will likely never become Law, of course, but at least it gives people something to think about. The bottom line is this: until we hold people in such positions to a stern and unyielding standard of ethical comportment, nothing is going to change substantially, save for the worse. Until we begin public executions of those who violate the rights of those to whom they swore solemn oaths of good faith and competent service, there shall exist no incentive for political office holders to do anything better than abuse us in the most felonious ways. Political agents must be given every reason to remain on the straight and narrow, the mere thought of wandering leaving them with the most dread-inspiring sense of terror. The threat of coming to ignominious death on the end of a rope in the presence of not more than three other human beings and a chilling absence of any fanfare or other attention will indeed act at a deterrent for most tyrannical action. Those few true psychopaths who insist on ignoring the abundantly broadcast warnings against transgression would serve are the occasional reminder of what awaits those who break their oaths.

The manifold and grave mistreatments we suffer are completely on us. Blaming politicians for being corrupt is like blaming a snake for biting; it tends to be in the nature of those who seek such positions. If you let the snake bite, the blame rests you. The sane and self respecting man shoots when the snake threatens, and so it must be with political creatures. We should be willing to allow them to serve us in many of the mundane tasks of governance if for no other reason than efficiency's sake. We should, however, instantly snap the jaws of just punishment upon those who violate in even the most seemingly insignificant ways because no violation of the Public Trust is insignificant. Draconian punishment for all politicians who have gone off the reservation. Kill them and do it with neither rancor nor regret, but only with the cold indifference of the man set to completing an essential task, regardless of how unpleasant it might otherwise be.

Those who violate choose to do so, all else equal, and must therefore bear the consequences of which they were given abundant, clear, and fair warning well in advance. When a fool jumps off the office roof in defiance of the warnings about gravity and its effects, as the impending <SPLAT> looms ever larger, should gravity grant his entreaties for a second chance? No. He chose. Now he pays. Life is very simple that way and it is long since time that we Americans returned to respecting such facts. Beginning with the taking of the heads of errant politicians is the finest start imaginable pursuant to that goal of honoring basic sense and individual responsibility. Brook no transgression. Become the righteous terror of the political class. Become intransigently intolerant of the intolerable, remembering that onus rests with you to come to wisely know the difference between what is and what is not to be endured by Free Men. May God bless us all and guide us to that which is right and good and proper between human beings.

Until next time please accept my best wishes.

Democrats Disgrace And Dishonor Themselves At Trump Address

As I watched President Trump's address to Congress just last night, 4 March 2025, I was appalled but not surprised to observe the Democrat side of the House as they made no effort to so much as veil their sullen and bitter countenances as the president delivered a well constructed set of valid, reasonable, and welcomed messages to America. 

For every absurdity referenced by President Trump and his vow to neutralize them, which was met with applause by the Republicans and many Independents, the cameras revealed Democrats smirking with smug disgust and flagrant hatred of the man whose administration was raining on their decades-long parade of bottomless corruption and outright criminality.

As President Trump revealed the crimes to which Americans have been subjected, Democrats raised their little placards which read "false", as they attempted to shout down the Chief Executive.

When President Trump heaped honor upon a young black child who had survived brain cancer, and having announced that the boy was now officially an agent of the United States Secret Service in fulfillment of his dreams, which received thunderous standing applause, the Democrats remained impassive and looking as bitter and disaffected as they could manage.

President Trump announced the acceptance of a young man's application to West Point.  More applause, save for Democrats whose facial expressions of bile-infused defeat failed to escape America's notice.

President Trump acknowledged the two women who were brutally murdered by illegal aliens and revealed the fulfillment of his promises to their families.  Again applause, except for Democrats who refused to show even that much grace toward their fellow human beings.

On and on it went for about one hour and forty minutes.   Nothing Trump said was untrue or outrageous to rational and morally intact human sensibility, and yet the Democrats proved that night to the entirety of the human race that of which they are really made, contradicting every claim they make on that point.  They showed the world the lengths to which they would go to vent their unreasoned ire, bile, and raw and undifferentiated hatred of a man whose only sin thus far has been to expose "government" corruption, waste, crime, and stupidity.

There may have been a small number of items for which the withholding by Democrats of acknowledgment may have been at least plausibly reasonable, however vanishingly.  But there was a vast majority of items for which Democrat seethe and loathing served only to expose to the world the moral degeneracy to which they cleave for their very existences.  They have no valid and reasonable answer to any biting criticisms to which they may now be freely put, unless they intend on claiming they'd all been somehow drugged by Republican agents and were thereby not responsible for their depraved behavior.

As the days continue to pass, Democrats and their manifold allies continue to dig, dig, dig.  To them I ask they send my greetings to Beijing when finally they breach the surface in the Forbidden City.

How anyone could be so utterly blind to their own pyrotechnically spectacular failings escapes me.  It's as if they want to be destroyed, perhaps for the sake of being relieved of the strains of maintaining the absurd views to which they have wed themselves so undyingly.  Perhaps the weak egos in question refuse to do it honestly, as that would require the admission that they were wrong. But if they continue digging, when failure inevitably consumes them, they can then claim to have been loyal to their principles and that defeat came not as the result of any culpability of theirs, but as the result of Eville™ Republican duplicity and chicanery.

Who knows, and quite frankly who cares?

The era of tyranny must now stand to be put to ends.  We, the people of the earth no longer possess the least valid excuse for not throwing from our necks the vampires that have fed upon and oppressed us for thousands of years.

The Democrats are by far the worst of the American tyrants, but fear not because you are not alone.  There is blame to go around to all quarters, corners, cracks, and crevices.  

We should be thankful for their disgraceful behaviors last night.  We now see with no toehold for equivocation just what those people are really about, and we were right all along.

Mors tyrannis, and as always please accept my best wishes.

Tyrants Confess Their Guilt

 When you are as corrupt as the day is long at the poles, questions are the last thing you want raised. The deeper and more heinous the corruption, the more you will wail, howl, shriek, and rage against even the most superficial and insignificant query.

In all the wild complaining of certain quarters regarding the activities of the so-called "DOGE", we are witnessing the confessions of the guilty, albeit obliquely. DOGE must continue even if SCOTUS says they may not. We stand in times of deep, dangerous, and extraordinary tyranny. We can no longer afford to be delicately polite in our investigations because we have all lived the reality of where undue mannerliness has gotten us, versus the devils who endeavor to cheat, subjugate, and devour us.

All its associated challenges notwithstanding, I thank God for the rise of the global network. It has changed everything. There no longer exists the least excuse for the presence of tyranny of any form or degree on the earth, much less so in America. The time for the era of abject and near-universal human misery must be at its end. Any extant and future tyrants unwilling to yield to the proprieties of humankind's inherent liberties must be physically eliminated with cold, clinical indifference and efficiency. To tolerate such company is to beg to be dominated by monsters, to be consumed by them, our rights dismissed as mere myths, fairy tales, and lies.

It is time to become the light.

Mors Tyrannis, and as always, please accept my best wishes... unless you're a tyrant.

We Should All Be Concerned

These past four weeks have seen vast torrents of hand-wringing, almost all by the so-called "left" over the actions that the Trump administration are taking, much of it the gutting and elimination of various agencies such as the ironically named Department of Education.

Most surprising there is that the lefties are absolutely correct, apparently completely by accident.  They are manifesting the right reactions for what I believe to be utterly mistaken reasons, but that is neither here nor there with respect to my purposes in this passage.  Anti-social media a abuzz with all manner of dire warnings, and right that it should be.

You are right to be concerned - we should all be. However, there is nothing special here in that regard alone. EVERYTHING "government" does should be of our concern. It is precisely the lack of concern that has landed us where we now sit, marinating to our nostrils in the political feces of the open pit septic tank to which American politics has devolved piecemeal since at least the end of the Civil War.

Because we are so deeply degenerated in political terms, the "system" so broken, we cannot rely on normal means for making the desperately needed corrections precisely because said broken system cannot be trusted in the vein of normal operation.  Were we, for example, to trust Congress to investigate itself, what epsilon of hope could any rational and honest man expect to hold that just outcomes would result?

Therefore, we have a choice before us. 

Door #1: do nothing for the sake of formal compliance to that system's normal and accepted procedures to be respected and observed under conditions that include virtuous men discharging their sworn duties to the Public Trust or,

Door #2: take extraordinary measures.

The former changes nothing and basically guarantees the doom of everything Americans claim to hold dear. Even the lunatics of the left will lose all, regardless whether they acknowledge that fact. 

The latter, on the other hand, carries enormous risks due to the exact fact that they step outside the metes and bounds of an otherwise well thought out system of checks and balances that works sufficiently well when those so entrusted conduct the business of governance with good faith and competence. It must be made clear and placed front and center the fact that those risks are part of the price we pay for our past sins of having placed blind trust in men who have been so obviously unworthy of it. We must perforce bear those risks if there is to be any hope whatsoever of reclaiming our liberties, reigning in "government", and keep public servants in the shortest possible leashes, ever reminding them of their places as servants of the trust in which they have been so graciously vested by us.  Otherwise, refer back to Door #1.

At this point we can act or we can fold. I prefer action and behind Door #2 there are two more, Doors A and B. Behind A is Trump's way.  Behind Door B, we start shooting. Trump's way avoids the tragedies of a blood-soaked civil war, the courageous genius of his strategy lying largely in the fact that his actions still manage to work well within the limits of the so-called "system", albeit in extraordinary terms.  Door B just gets tons of people killed and reduces us as a people to savagery to whom nobody wants to fall victime.

I therefore choose Door A. We can always shoot later if the necessity arises.

As things stand at the moment, Team Trump is America's best hope for at least some measure of recovery from the raw tyranny that has crept up on us since 1865 and until recently had been at full and roughshod gallop.  But they are not enough.  We, the people of America, need to undergo a sea-change in the way we view our places in the scheme of political things.  We need to see a better way of living, a way of intolerance of even the most trivial sorts of petty tyranny, and to punish with grim cruelty those who violate their oaths of good faith and competent service.  Neither malefactors nor bumblers and dunderheads are to be tolerated in any measure or manner whatsoever.  They must be excised and made to regret with great bitterness their errors an malfeasances, and it must be made very public as reminders to all who dare so much as even approach Patrick Henry's Alter of Liberty, that on pain of pain severe do they do so and that no taint to that sacred edifice of Freedom shall ever be met with anything less than harsh consequence.

Recall the quip, "government of the people, by the people, and for the people."  I would amend it to refer to "governance" rather than non-existent "government".  We are the governors, primarily of ourselves, but in the cases where individuals fail to do so, we must govern them at least for a time.  This requires much of us, especially in civic awareness and in an attitude of being sentinels in guard of everything we hold dear as civilized human beings.  Until we become the governors, watching over not only our own best interests, but those of all our fellows, we shall remain subject to the whim and caprice of scoundrels and others unworthy of the liberties and blessings of a free land.  YOU are the governor of your own life, but must also stand sentry over those into whose hands you have entrusted the limited and regretfully necessary functions of the "state".

We have been raped and raked over the coals by crooks and criminals.  The time is here to put all tyranny to the long deep sleep of eternity, to rise as people flush with the self-respect of the Freeman who brooks no insult to his liberty.

Learn what is right between men, embrace and love it.  Make it the heart of who you are as a human being and see its sacred nature in yourself and in all others.  Stand tall in the pride of having been blessed with a free nature and be prepared to give everything you own for its sake, for without your liberty, you have nothing worthy of life.

And if you don't know enough of what is right, then I will recommend you start here.

And as always I will add that what we need is Amendment 28, that there remain no possible ambiguity as to where things stand between us and those in whom we vest provisional trust:


Here's to hope for a brighter day, and as always please accept my best wishes.

What Is Anarchism?

 There seem to be a great number of conflicting notions of what defines "anarchism". Sadly, the term now carries such massive baggage that it is really become an almost useless instrument for conveying a sound and rational idea. Consider the "anarchists" whose work helped precipitate the onset of the Great War (world war 1). In other quarters there are those who call themselves "anarchist" who are nothing but relabeled communists. Ugh... the horror. Some few years ago I coined "autodiathism" in an attempt to separate what I would like to term "true anarchism" or "pure anarchism" from all those other mangled and rotten notions upon which the label has been plastered over the past century and then some. "Autodiathism" from the Greek for "self determination", the idea there being the freedom to chart one's own path for his life, free from outside interferences, all else equal and in accord with the Principles of Proper Human Relations.

Put succinctly, anarchism is freedom. It is proper freedom in the context of living amid your fellow human beings. Were you the only person left on earth, you would be free to do whatever you pleased, including lighting off a strategic nuke in lower Manhattan, if it pleased you because the only human being effected by your actions would be you. There would be nobody else to feel the effects of any choice you made, nor would there be anyone to call you to account for your actions. Therefore, you would be perfectly free within the limitations that physical reality places on all of us. But you're not alone in this world.

Living among and amid your fellows changes things, if only slightly, such that you become obliged to fulfill an obligation not to violate the equal claims of others... that is, if you hold an expectation of having YOUR rights respected, and I know of nobody who repudiates such claims for themselves. Proper human relations founds centrally and primarily on not acting hypocritically. Want love? Be loving. Want respect? Be respectful... and so on down the list of wishes and wants common to all men. This is the essence of the Principles of Proper Human Relations. Live. Let live. Do no unjust harm. What you want for yourself in terms of your most basic claims, you are behooved to grant and respect for those around you. This is nothing other or less than the Golden Rule itself, and it is perfect as is. There is no other Law of Nature that men need adopt for themselves both literally as individually, and abstractly as societies. It is complete, correct, and clear.

It this that defines anarchism at its heart, it is my definition of "autodiathism". But that's the normative side of the coin. The positive side involves putting such norms into actual practice, which in turn primarily and most significantly involves dealing with those who fail to observe the requirements of those norms. No "government" ("anarchy") does not mean no governance. In an ideal anarchic world, people govern themselves properly in accord with the Principles of Proper Human Relations, thereby obviating any need for third-party governance of any given individual or group thereof.

We do not, however, live in that world and likely never shall, though one can always hope and men can always strive toward that ideal. Therefore, when an individual fails to properly govern himself, and the reasons for such failure are irrelevant, he must then be governed by others until such time as he returns to self-possession and has made whole anyone to whom he has brought injury. Until then, people hold every authority to do what is necessary to ensure that such people are called to account for their transgressions in violation of the Principles of Proper Human Relations, and to further ensure that they are rendered incapable of committing further harms until such time as they are deemed again fit to be released to the company of their fellow humans.

When people govern themselves properly, the world becomes a far happier, healthier, and more prosperous place. When they fail, it becomes necessary that they be governed by others lest they run further amok in violation of their fellow brethren.

Our grand failing as a species lies in the fact that we have allowed things to run this far off the lines of propriety. Equally, it is our fault that we have failed to bring the mean man to proper understandings of what it means to live properly among his fellows. Some of this failing can be excused as matters of ignorance or the presence of mistaken ideas. But some of it is by all means rooted in the corruption of individuals occupying positions of power who, by virtue of their villainy endeavored to ensure that "the people" remained in states of gross ignorance and material poverty such that their susceptibility to criminal corruption would be cultivated and grown, rather than mitigated, thereby superficially convincing the world of the need for that power structure to remain in place, lest the world fall into chaos. It's the Hegelian Dialectic at work as it has been for thousands of years: create a threat real or imagined, present the solution and yourself as the only one capable of delivery, and take over. And it works every time like a charm.

Get a critical mass of humanity on the same page and this problem would likely disappear in near totality, whatever remnants that would exist being easily and readily absorbed and addressed by the greater body of humanity such that the harms that plague us today would be all but eliminated.

Until then, the world as we know it goes on diminishing and disparaging all that is good between men.

We can do it, but as things currently appear, we will choose otherwise because most people cannot see the forest for the trees. It's a tough position in which we find ourselves. Only time will tell whether we will come to choose more wisely.

Mors Tyrannis, and as always please accept my best wishes.

The Brilliance Of Donald Trump & Co.

Donald Trump is a brilliant strategist. Here is a snippet the news media including traitorous Fox News have largely and purposely neglected to disseminate to the public at large.

Back during the Obama administration there was a gigantic fiasco with the computer system developed for signing people up for so-called "Obamacare". It was an unmitigated failure and an utter disaster that would have embarrassed and shamed Obama irreparably, had he any lick of sense.
However, Obama's handlers were pragmatists of sufficient mien to understand that the failure could not stand. And so the Obama administration established a new agency, the United States Digital Service (USDS), whose putative mission was to correct the failings that lead to the aforementioned disaster.

Whatever happened to USDS? It fell into effective disuse, though it remained on the books, replete with funding, personnel, and all of its ostensive authorities.

Here's where the genius comes in. Trump and company have a mission to drain the swamp. How, prithee tell, is one to do such a thing, particularly where one is certain to meet with every manner of resistance from the manifold malefactors in whose interest is it to ensure that the status quo be preserved?

Team Trump's tactic was pure brilliance. Trump took an established and recognized agency of the federal government, USDS, renamed it "DOGE", and populated it with a team of his choosing pursuant to the objective of repurposing an idle asset of the federal government. Therefore, and contrary to the shrill howling of some, mostly Democrats I would add, who claim that Congress has not established DOGE or in any way approved of it, they are mistaken. It was established by Congress under Obama, is fully funded and carries as much authority to do what it is doing as any other federal agency. Detractors have no leg upon which to stand in this matter, Trump having taken a humble framing hammer and having reforged it into an instrument of righteous and just correction.

For the hand wringing sorts who think Trump is acting outside of his constituted powers as Chief Executive, you are dead-wrong. The purge and cleansing of the Washington DC "swamp" shall continue and it shall be very painful for those who made losing bets, and in so doing became knowingly and actively complicit in the crimes of "government". The time to pay what is owed to those whose trust they so egregiously betrayed is upon them. Let them take solace in the knowledge that the severe punishments that should be heaped upon them will likely be greatly mitigated due to Trump's overly soft heart and his apparently genuine desire to get done the job of cleaning house that has been befouled beyond recognition. That means not lingering too long on trying to squeeze every drop of well earned punishment from each and every one of the guilty. The real treasure here lies in the exposure of the criminals to the cleansing light of day, as well as what may prove the most crucially valuable political lessons ever bestowed to the American people. May we learn them well and never forget.

Love him, hate him, but never ever deny that Trump is a remarkable strategist and highly adept tactician. Until next time, please accept my best wishes.

What Is The Public Trust?

There exists a notion which is almost utterly disregarded by people on the whole.  It is ignored by teachers, college professors, politicians, parents, and the so-called "media".  And yet, it is one of the most singularly significant ideas of civilized living, along with those of inherent human rights and the freedoms that they unavoidably imply with raw, implacable, and invincible force. 

Ultimately, it is the idea central to that of proper governance without which almost any horror imaginable may arise in the name of "government".

The concept to which I refer here is that of the Public Trust.  However, here my intention is not to make reference to the traditional notion of Public Trust, which speaks to the proper management of natural and other common resources such as navigable waterways, for instance.  

Rather, I am addressing a more fundamental, far broader, and very literal sense of "trust", which relevantly denotes the faith placed by one into the presumed good character of another such that the former expects the latter to speak and act in ways pursuant to the former's best interests.  I speak of the duty of those in positions of governance† to act in the best interest of those to whom they swore oaths of good faith and competent service (OOGFACS), and to whom they are thereby bound in a fiduciary capacity.  

This alternate notion of the Public Trust constitutes a Special Trust that I refer to as being fully and unbreakably owed by those who take upon themselves that mantle of obligation, to those whom their oaths have been sworn.  Here we refer to something far broader, deeper, and crucial to the interests of liberty than the usual reference.  Public Trust is a Special Trust, the terms being effectively interchangeable for all practical purposes.  I will add that a Special Trust, which is to say the Public Trust, is one the violation of which constitutes a felony of the most grave and unforgivable nature.

It is my objective now to define the term such that it serves the purposes of freedom, that all violations upon the liberties of men taken in the context of this definition cannot be validly justified or excused.

To wit:

Public Trust, noun: 

The trust implicitly invested and afforded by The People in those individuals who occupy positions of governance or other Public Service, and who have sworn oaths of good faith and competent service to The People. Having so sworn, they then bear upon themselves a duty to act in the best interests of those to whom their oaths have been solemnly promised and perfected. This promise includes, most crucially, that of refraining from, and the explicit refusal of, the commission of violations against the inherent rights of any man by act or other deed, intended or mistaken. Furthermore, if such violations occur, the violators are obliged to make all possible restitutions to those against whom they have trespassed, lest they otherwise explicitly confess themselves guilty through such failure as having intentionally committed the crime, which shall serve as a severe aggravating factor in the matter of their guilt, of which at that point there shall exist no reasonable doubt.


Special Trust, noun:


The solemn, sacred, but conditional confidence, belief, certitude, and credence of The People in those who have sworn to them oaths of good faith and competent service, the unamended and/or unrepentant violation of which constitutes a High Felony of the most grievous, egregious, and unforgivable sort and which must be punished with grim measure.


With these definitions in hand, the position of "government" is altered in significant quantum.  It becomes clear that those in positions of governance, from President to village dog catcher and mailman, are by no means the masters of the rest, but mere servants whose obligations to do no harm far outstrip any purport to authority such people might claim, real or imagined††.  That obligation stands as the first and foremost duty of all who occupy such positions of Special Trust, of the Public Trust, and when they violate and made no admission of their guilt nor effort to restore those whom they have harmed, no less than the full weight of justice is to fall upon them in all its might and fury.

The time for tolerance of the intolerable must now come to an end.  "Government" and all who occupy its halls as denizens much be put in their proper places with the clear and unmistakable understanding of what can be expected when the rights of The People are crossed.  This is the only just and proper response to the wrongs committed by such individuals in the name of "government" and "the state".  Such grave intolerance must be taken up by all men and never again neglected in even the least instance where rights have so much as been bumped against ever so gently without consent. Let it be clear that there exists no such thing as implied consent where such trespass is concerned.  This is a lie that those in "government" have foisted upon The People to further streamline their capacities for ever growing violation such that they now believe themselves entitled to do as they please, when they please, the rights of The People be damned.

Tolerate no disparagement.  Fight Themme††† every step and for ever scrap of that which is rightly yours.

Mors tyrannis!

Be good, learn all you can of that which is right and proper between people, and until next time please accept my best wishes.



†Often referred to as "government" or "the state"

††Most often imagined... or more likely schemed

††† Those in material political power, holding the ability to impose upon others changes that effect the rights of some or all people.  Politicians are the prime example of Themme, but they are not the only ones.  Anyone with such power might a member of Theire cadre, as well as those willing to act as their agents.

Contain, Thwart, And Disparage Progressive Tyrants

 


Of late, the currently entrenched "establishment" has been trumpeting on about the greatest threats to "democracy" and mankind's very survival.  Naturally, they are stating in the most absolute terms that the top spot is occupied by people of white European descent, especially the men, the next greatest threat not so much as even in the rear view mirror.  Therefore, all non-white people should be getting their raging hatred ginned up quite thoroughly, lest the white man drive them into slavery.  It would all be mildly comedic, were the results not so corrosive and dangerous to all that is good between people.


President Joe Biden has been at this for years, as have all those who are his incestuous political and philosophical fellows.  As the loom of a second Trump presidency hangs ever more menacingly in the withered minds and corrupted souls of the essential communists, so thinly and every so ironically labeled as "progressives", they have ramped up their usual frenetic and exaggerated rhetoric to logarithmically growing tenors as they shriek, rage, and gruesomely gnash their teeth in grotesque grimace such that basically nobody but the most stunted pay them the least heed any longer.  The American left has wildly over-played their hand, and those chickens are now piecemeal wandering home to roost.  We now even see subsets of their following turning their backs; those whose minds have not yet been quite completely digested by the acids of the decay-promoting progressive world view.  

The mental and moral disease of progressivism is the actual threat.  It appeals to the emotions through the use of very carefully chosen words, phrases, slogans, and a host of deeply tacit and very vaguely expressed concepts that promise things that fly in the face of liberty and of basic, hard-wired human nature.  The false promises of progressivism play upon the inherent corruptibility of the human animal, and a vast plurality of us seem quite content, nay eager, to cash in regardless of the deeper truths that bespeak nothing better than abject servitude and its attendant miseries and erosions.  Progressivism promises that which may never become possible.  But far more importantly, even if those misbegotten promises ever proved materially feasible, they would nonetheless prove cancerous to liberty because they are based in dependence upon outside agency for one's every need and desire, placing every individual at the mercy of those third-parties' deign and caprice.  

Vast legions of people have allowed themselves to be convinced that they want such a utopian world which comports in perfect lockstep with the progressive ideal. This is the greatest and foulest lie, claiming that individual liberty is best protected by the "state".  It is the single most dangerous political notion ever to have been foisted upon humanity.  It is a candy with so venomous a center as to be unavoidably fatal to liberty, and therefore to all that makes life worth the living, reducing it to mere existence and daily torment. It is the lie whose reality is the diametric opposite of that which it claims as its truth.

Nevertheless, the so-called "left" has managed to do its job well with its endlessly fallacious "logic", if we can even call it that. The progressive argument appeals solely to the emotions of morally intact people such that they inevitably become morally corrupted, betrayed by their good hearts into accepting that which may seem superficially appealing, but which any sane and intact man of nominal capacity instantly recognizes as intolerable with so much as even the most casual scrutiny.

Make no mistake, the "left" are absolute devils in terms of real results, regardless of intentions. They masquerade ever so ironically as the holders of a moral and intellectual high-ground, which rises not even to the laughable.

My raw emotional impulse is to declare that they should be destroyed physically to the very last man. But when I put emotion aside in favor of a soundly strategic logic, it becomes apparent that taken alone such measures are not sufficient to the accomplishment of good ends in the longer term. Taken as a strategy, the immediate destruction of an enemy at best represents a palliative measure that fails in time due to incapacity. Even in those cases where it may prove a necessary tactical measure, it can never be sufficient to the broader goal of long-term stability for abiding and unassailable freedom. Unless an adequate majority come to a better understanding of the principles of proper human relations, as well as that of an attitude of comprehending and embracing the true nature of proper human freedom in not only its glory, but its burdens, the human prospect will continue to grow ever more grim.

Generally, the only long-term solution is for a people to adopt a culture of proper moral and intellectual propriety where the endless ironies of the leftist and other unsound world views are rejected utterly and are afforded no tolerance whatsoever for imposition. Let every generation give those views the twice-over of close, competent, impartial scrutiny afresh, such that they may themselves reinvent the wheel that leads intact minds and souls to reject feloniously dangerous idiocies, the acceptance of which lead only to endless disease, misery, and death. Leave for them treatises of well-tested and continually reconfirmed demolitions of false philosophies such that the young may come to know the how's and why's that reveal false political philosophies for the dangers that they are.
The tenets of progressivism lead to precisely that for which it sycophants claim to seek utter eradication. I swear, it's gag-reel of all time.

The long term solution in defense against the ravages of progressivism also includes the shunning of those of a left-bent, while leaving them to their devices to the point that they transgress against the rights of their fellows. Once that line is crossed however, one addresses the circumstance with grim intolerance. At such points free men respond by shutting criminals away into prison colonies, or in the more extreme cases killing them outright where the immediate threat justifies it, which is what we usually call "war". In the case of the progressives, where their transgressions are concerned, our judgments upon their crimes must be significantly aggravated by the dangerous and intrinsically violative philosophical idiocies over to which they have willingly given themselves. There can be no excuse for such choices and where such people choose to commit crimes, their world views must be taken into consideration as said aggravating factors.

Additionally, war must be recognized and assessed not by the words bandied about by those unworthy of our trust (politicians, for example), but by what we witness in terms of actions taken. Rioting is naught but a euphemism for "war", yet many fail to recognize this, believing the lie that war is only that which "governments" say it is. Make no error in the belief that the material acts in violation of your rights is anything other than acts of outright war against you. They do not have to be waging physical acts against you in order to qualify as warring. Legislative acts that prescribe disparagements of your rights, regardless of degree, and which are enacted into statute that is materially enforced by men with swords constitute such acts of war in trespass against the sovereignty of all.

Think for yourselves and never trust "government", for that is the first step in leaving ajar the door to tyranny. All "government" must be regarded with utter distrust at all times, not just those of the progressive ilk. Nothing said by agents of "government" is to be taken at face value, but is to be regarded with utmost suspicion with said agents being made constantly aware that you have your eye on them and are ready and eager to take them to task for even the most seemingly innocuous of transgressions including the mere appearance of impropriety. Such extreme intolerance and the will to take violators to the woodshed is the only thing that will keep "government" on its maximally foreshortened leash. The moment our hold on that chain is relaxed even in the least measure, the slack is immediately taken up and more is brazenly demanded. This is the nature of those who hold such positions and it must be countervailed with zero tolerance or remit. The threat of gruesome violence is the only thing that those in positions of governance understand and respect. Removal of that threat has proven the downfall of all civilized humanity across the ages in every single instance, there being not so much as a single exception to this result. It is universal and predictable with utter and absolute perfection.

The epoch of tolerating the intolerable must come to an end, or else the human race is in fact doomed, and at the time of this writing, humanity dances on that razor's edge, regardless whether it wishes to acknowledge the fact. And so as always, we stand at a nexus where the choice is to be made as to what sort of a world we will leave for our great grandchildren. It is a choice that every single human being will make because there is no escaping that responsibility. The only question remaining is whether one makes the choice actively, or in passive default. What will you tell your children's children if you chose the coward's way out, failing to stand tall as a Freeman and thus leaving to your filial posterity a world of pretty (or not-so-pretty) slavery? Is that what you really want? If not, then get out of your comfy chair and do what is needed. If you do not know, find people who do and learn not only what is to be done, but to love what is needed and to love freedom in all its glory, its risks, its burdens, and its scariness, because no matter how tough it may be to be free, and it is plenty of all that, it is infinitely preferable to subservience of any form or degree. Death to tyrants and an end to all tyranny. That should be the most immediate goal for all the people of the earth. May you find your way to the Good Place, and have above all things the courage and determination to defend it with your last breath. Contain, thwart, tightly circumscribe, and disparage all tyrants and their wannabes, progressives being the worst of the lot. God bless all free people, and until next time please accept my best wishes.

Time Is Here, Part Deux

 It should be acknowledged that in spite of the apparent turning of the worm with the most recent elections, the grand malefactors remain a threat to all, and let me be very clear that those are people who typically ID as "left", "progressive", and so on down that list of misery-laden sorts who seek not to live their own lives, but to dominate yours. Here I speak of the first-line threats - the useful idiots of those whose names never see the light of day for the eyes of we the people. Those root-cause agents should be identified and aired out, but that task is vastly difficult to achieve as they hide behind 8-fold fences of obfuscation, both legal and material. But the aforementioned useful idiots are readily identifiable and targetable.

As long as we tolerate the material interferences of scoundrels, which is supposedly a sign of individual and societal moral virtue according to some, free men will have little opportunity to peaceably live their lives as they see fit in accord with the principles of proper human relations because those choices will always stand under threat and even outright attack from those who have no intention of respecting the rights of others. We unavoidably stand as potential victims of the perpetual hypocrites, liars, felons, and even murderers who pose perennial threats to liberty and all that attaches thereto.

There is the tolerable, and there is the intolerable. Threats against a man's free prerogatives to live as he pleases constitute clear and present dangers to every right to which he lays valid claim and should be met and addressed as such. Anyone acting to violate the rights of another should stand in immediate and grave jeopardy of losing their lives at the hands of those who would righteously defend against such felonious trespass.

But we live in an upside-down world where evil is worshipped and basic sense and decency is criminalized.

I am not optimistic that the human race will be able to continue into the longer term future without a physical showdown between the light and the dark because the latter incessantly and ever more egregiously seeks to trespass upon the former. At what point does one decide to brook no further violation of his sacred and God-given rights? How far must he be degraded, disparaged, threatened, and violated before he acts in accord with the dictates of basic moral sense and self-respect? In practical terms and on a national scale that could mean effective civil war, a circumstance nobody wants, but one which decent men must consider as a prudent and necessary option, perhaps even the only viable one in the face of an implacable foe who will stop at nothing to foist and force his vile tyrannies upon others.

The ill-bred mantra of "violence is never acceptable" is false, prima facie. It is a vile and bald-faced lie told by those who seek to remove or constrict one's freedoms with his consent as he sits idly, watching in the hideously mistaken belief that to act in his own defense is not just immoral, but criminal and unprofitable to his better interests. It is the devil convincing a man to climb the gallows, place the noose around his own neck, and pull the lever by dint of his free will, believing he is committing a sane, morally correct act of profit to himself.

All violators must be defied, resisted, and if push comes to shove, killed just as any sane man would respond to anyone attempting to rob, maim, or murder him. There exists no valid moral imperative to tolerate felonies perpetrated against oneself, whether by a thug on the street, or the thugs of a legislature and their enforcers. There exists no valid basis for accepting mandates that require one to violate himself, reducing himself in an act of free will to the status of a Weakman and de-facto slave.

The time is upon us for those of free and courageous hearts to rise as sovereigns and stand tall in grim and unrelenting defiance of the false authorities that have foisted themselves upon the world and who now stand so nakedly blatant before all people as such. Nigh is the time for men to choose freedom over slavery regardless of how pretty the bondage may appear and how cleverly it may be falsely peddled as liberty.

Time is upon us to stop complying in open and loudly sneering insubordination to the Tyrant, and to come together as brothers in liberty, ever prepared to smite the evildoers and their bloodlines into the dust of death for the sake of the freedom God has gifted to all men. Those who refuse to govern themselves properly in accord with the equal rights of all people shall be governed through the intervention of their fellows, the endeavor to be undertaken with grave determination to instill a bitter but just and unequivocal lesson in how to behave properly. This is a central requirement of a free people, who make no compromises where their freedoms are concerned, regardless of how seemingly trivial or necessary, and tolerate no breaches of the relevant proprieties. The mere suggestion by one man of such improprieties should raise the ire of all around him and cause him to become recipient of the most grave warnings of the threats he faces if he dares make material good on his mistaken notions.

The era of blind and indiscriminate tolerance must end today for the sake of humanity's future, for it is a clarion call to self-destruction masquerading as moral virtue. It is a damnable lie that threatens the welfare of every man and entices him to abandon the responsibility he holds to himself and his fellows to develop his skills of sound judgment of the words and deeds of all men, for such skill is one of the things the Tyrant so ironically cannot bear to tolerate. Men who possess such abilities of refined discrimination cannot be fooled into tolerating that which is evil, thereby leaving them in the position to neutralize much of the Tyrant's power.

Rise. Stand tall. Become powerful. Learn and embrace moral rectitude, rather than weakness. Reject incapacities in the knowledge of right and wrong between men so as to avoid being ineffectual in the world to work against the perpetual onslaughts of the evil plotters and their cadres of endlessly dangerous fools who represent the boots-on-the-ground elements of the men who would see your freedoms insulted, disparaged, and ultimately destroyed. Freedom is an all-or-nothing proposition. One is either free, or he is something else. There are no degrees of freedom, but only of servitude.

Close your mind off to the poisons of the so-called "left", the ironically labeled "progressives" and all others who seek to circumscribe your morally rightful prerogatives. Become strong and congeal into powerful communities whose defining hallmark is an intransigent love of liberty and an utter intolerance of trespass. Work tirelessly to bring freedom's antagonists to endless fatigue, frustration, anger, bitterness, and force them into the choice of putting up or shutting up. This is a matter of practicality, and of self-respect.

Forever regard with keen suspicion and the ready will to dismantle joint by joint all who approach Patrick Henry's sacred altar of Liberty.

Become a warrior, desirous of peace, but ready to do what it takes to destroy all comers who would have free men corralled and constricted in violation of all moral propriety. Such people must never be tolerated insofar as they materially act pursuant to their vile sentiments and intentions, and who must otherwise be shunned as enemies of all that is good between people. Deny them all benefits of communion with their betters until such time as they amend their opinions with respect to the rights of all men and the proper regard and treatment of their fellows. Leave them otherwise to their devices so long as they refrain from trespass. But in the case that they commit mischief beyond the metes and bounds of their rights, leave them in states of long-standing cause for self-reflection, or in the appropriate cases, their remains for the coyotes.

God blessed Americans as no other people on the planet. Show not the contempt of disrespect, or of ingratitude, for the greatest of all gifts bestowed you by the Divine, for I promise that if you do, the day will come that you shall rue with acid and bile this most grave of errors.

Change Must Come From The Bottom

"Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And weak men create hard times"

-G. Michael Hopf


The quote describes a cycle that has repeated itself over and over throughout our history.

If a new America is to rise better than ever it was before, and if it is to be maintained, then we will be fighting for at least a whole generation or two to come because the malefactors who helped bring us to this sad pass shall remain and they will never give up.

This is a good thing. The fight against the silent usurpers and their whining and raging useful idiots, those we know as "left" or so ironically as "progressive", should serve to keep us united and strong. And if that perchance those malevolent elements return to the woodwork, the challenges to us will be even greater, because it was the great material prosperity of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that lulled us into the complacency that landed us here.

More than any other nation in our recorded history, America needs to adopt a warrior culture. This does NOT mean becoming a war mongering people. Warrior culture, in a nutshell, is one where the people constantly prepare for the worst and hope for the best, suspicious of all who approaches Patrick Henry's altar of Liberty. They are well educated in the fundamentals of proper human relations. They are knowledgeable in moral proprieties and are raised to love all that is good between people. They are sternly intolerant of the intolerable; of all moral turpitude, and they know the difference between the morally abhorrent and that which is merely distasteful to some. Of these they are intolerant of the former and tolerant of the latter, a VERY important skill to have.

They are thick-skinned and know how to bear without complaint things they themselves find distasteful. They are the captains of themselves such that they are not offended by unflattering statements and sentiments.

Weakmen will always exist, even in a predominantly warrior culture. It is up to the warrior class to keep the Weakmen under control to the extent that they dare attempt to upset the status quo with criminal acts, attempting to achieve by transgressive mischief what has been heretofore so successfully accomplished in early twenty first century America. We now stand as a people teetering on the razor's edge of a bottomless abyss that still threatens to consume us and all our posterity. This must be remedied and never again allowed.

The so-called "greatest generation" was nothing of the sort, for they allowed their issue to stray from the path, whose children in turn strayed further, and theirs even farther afield to such a point as we now fund ourselves.

But none of this is to say that we ought not engage in self-reflection or that we ought never change anything about ourselves. Self-examination, properly employed, may lead to proper change, but people who live well amongst each other need be ever cautious about any changes in the basics because that is the brand of creep that sets the wheel in motion back toward that precipice. The "left" accomplished what they have through the stealth of what was once called "salami politics", applying their morally void changes in thin and almost imperceptible slices such that the American people, preoccupied with vacations, professional wrestling, and wringing their hands over what color the new BMW should be, failed to properly assess that which was happening right before their very eyes in plain sight. We must never again fall to such lows of individual character, but must become as monsters in defense of the good against the stealthily encroaching evils that beset us on all sides.

Every generation must renew its commitment to liberty, strength, propriety, and love for one another. And with our current technologies of instant and mass information transfer we hold in our hands the ability to remain aware both of things past, and of that which is currently developing. No longer do we hold title to the excuses of ignorance or powerlessness in the face of false authority and its attendant tyrannies. It is up to us to learn the metes, bounds, and requirements of proper civil liberty, as well as its rewards, and to cling to them like grim death; to defend it to our last breaths against the insidious and creeping threats who seek to usurp our freedoms for the sake of wielding powers to which they hold no valid claim.

The key lies in ATTITUDE... the warrior's attitude. Learn it. Embrace it. Love it. Defend it. Live it. Perpetuate it. Anything less virtually guarantees our reversion to chaos, poverty, disease, misery, and death as a people.

Mors tyrannis.

Mortem ad tyrannidem.

Until next time, please accept my best wishes.

ICE Going To Work Even Before Trump Takes Office

 In another forum it was announced that ICE is now actually doing their jobs at the border. Bravo.

I surmise that they no longer fear Biden and his lackeys, so they now are emboldened to to the job for which they were hired and swore their oaths. My suspicion is that most of those fellows are breathing sighs of great relief.

Good. This also reveals just how weak Biden really is. Were it otherwise, he'd be clamping down on them hard, but he does nothing because he IS nothing.

I believe this also reveals in a similarly back-handed way that the cowards of Biden's America are now prepping to run for the hills because they, too, are not stepping up as they did before. Mayorkas is nowhere to be seen, though I suspect they can find him cowering in his mom's basement, filling his pants in anticipation of having his ass handed to him for dereliction of duty in the face of a foreign invasion. I live to see the day he goes to a cell on Gitmo as per NDAA and dies in his cell, alone and in abject misery. He will have done it to himself.

However, more important that my well developed sense of justice is the need to move on from this most dreadful and embarrassing era of American history. It is more important that we repair what needs it and ensure that we never fall so far again. It's been 100 years and more in the making. Let us never again be so complacent and blindly obedient. Never again is anyone in "government" to be trusted, not even Trump. Not eve Jesus, for this is the most vile game ever contrived by men. It is pure filth and it tempts all men to stray from virtue in spite of their putatively good intentions.

A new America must rise from the ashes of what the past 60 years has brought forth. The New American is to be a Freeman, rather than a Weakman. He is ever vigilant of "government" action and gravely, grimly, and utterly intolerant of even the most seemingly insignificant impropriety or misbehavior, any of which must be treated the moment it is uncovered, and addressed with the most resolute determination to set to rights that which has run amiss and to mete harsh but just punishments to those who have transgressed in violation of their sworn and solemn oaths to serve both in good faith and with proper competence. Tolerance of the intolerable is an era that must come to its abrupt and long overdue end with the swearing in of a new president, and hopefully a new era where Americans are transformed into the ultimate governors, holding all elected, appointed, hired, and contracted people in whom the public trust has been vested on the shortest possible leashes with threats of great and cataclysmic dangers to all who violate their sacred oaths.

Death to all tyranny no matter how seemingly trivial or harmless. It must be stamped out in toto.

God bless America and may freedom ring once again, and better and more completely than ever has it before anywhere on civilized earth. Merry Christmas everyone, and until next time please accept my best wishes.

Why Lefties Are Ideologues And Righties Are Not

 Greetings and felicitations!  May the spirit of the season seize upon your heart and bring you and yours a cornucopia of joy!

Today we shall examine the reasons why the mean "lefty" is an ideologue and why the mean "righty" is not.  To begin, note my reference to "mean", as in the "average".  This should indicate to you that I now intend to speak in statistical terms, which is to say to the average case.  This further implies that there are examples of such people who lie to either side of the mean, meaning most relevantly that there are those lefties who are not so much ideologues and righties who are, but that each represents a distinct minority of each population.

Let us begin with some definitions.  Firstly, what is an "ideologue"?  One online dictionary gives a succinct summary:

noun

1. a person who zealously advocates an ideology.


Historically, "ideologue" was defined and intended as a disparaging moniker.  Labeling someone as an ideologue was quite the insult.  It implied a brand and degree of willful, functional imbecility on the part of an individual, attributable to his blind and intransigent clinging to an idea whose merits have been securely demonstrated as void.  It originates ca. 1815 in scathing reference to French Revolutionaries.  It is this sense of "ideologue" that we use today, rather than any of the more modern distortions of the original which carry less damning tones.

My thesis is as the title encapsulates: lefties tend to be ideologues, while righties tend not to me.  How is this so?  When confronted with conclusive evidence that an idea to which a lefty has wed himself, he will most typically reject the contrary evidence, with rather predictable and greatly overwrought displays of vituperative expressions whose sentiments live in the ultra-violent end of the spectrum.  Such drama-queen productions are the rule for such people, rather than the exception.

Typical contemporary scenarios where such qualities are made manifest by lefties include:

  1. Climate Change Debate: In spite of hugely conclusive evidence that torpedoes the basic tenets of so-called "climate change", those who strongly advocate for climate action (they overwhelmingly lean hard-left, though not universally) habitually discount scientific studies and data from reputable sources that so much as suggest alternative views on climate policies or the effectiveness of certain interventions. They overwhelmingly focus instead on data that aligns with their perspective, even if the counter-evidence substantially demolishes the validity of their views.
  2. Economic Policy: Similarly, advocates of bankrupt economic models such as those of typical socialist/communist schemes that include wildly wrong-headed notions such as universal basic income and heavy taxation on the wealthy, predictably reject empirical studies or economic analyses that highlight potential negatives or the unintended consequences of such policies. They almost universally insist that any negative findings are biased or misinterpreted, supporting their beliefs despite contradictory evidence. So thoroughly dislodged from truth are such people, they reject the readily observable real-time negative results of those things with which they agree, as well as the good results of those things to which they reject with such raw violence.

  3. Health and Nutrition: In discussions about health diets and nutritional guidelines, individuals of a left-bent unsurprisingly and almost without variance cling to specific diets such as veganism and dismiss anything that suggests the benefits of a more varied diet, especially those that include animal products. They tend to argue that any research contradicting their view is funded by industries that benefit from these dietary choices. This from the people who so habitually accuse of those whom they view as their enemies as "conspiracy theorists". The complaint here against such people lies not in their choices of diet, which as a matter is one solely of their own discretion and choice, but of the fact that while they demand their views and choices be respected, they resolutely refuse to afford others likewise courtesies. Not only must their choices be seen as right for them, but for all humanity and may fie and biblical misfortune descend upon any and all who disagree, no matter how slight and oblique the contention.

  4. Social Justice Issues: The generally accepted positions of lefties in the fooleries of so-called "systemic racism" in America and "social justice" sees such people rejecting with their usual violence any and all evidence that so much as suggests that conditions may not be quite as apocalyptic as their grand-mal fits of shrieking rage would have the world believe. For instance, the generally ignore contrary data because it doesn’t fit the narrative of systemic oppression and victimhood that they peddle with such untiring dedication and force.

These are but four examples from the mountainous heap of similar ways in which those who identify themselves as "left" or "progressive"† ignore reality for the sake of the visions of sugar plums which dance in their heads.†† And to reiterate, this is the trend. My assertions are in no way to be taken as any sort of universal claim against all individuals. In a similar way, we see that those who self-identify as "right" or "conservative" tend to accept properly constructed arguments that disprove any given ideas and beliefs they may have held. Examples include:
  1. Criminal Justice Reform: There has been a growing recognition among conservatives of the need for criminal justice reform, particularly concerning issues like mass incarceration and the war on drugs. As evidence mounted about the ineffectiveness of certain policies, many conservatives began advocating for changes to sentencing laws and rehabilitation programs.

  2. LGBTQ+ Rights: Over recent years, many conservatives have changed their views on issues like same-sex marriage and LGBTQ+ rights. This shift often occurs as individuals come to understand the implications of their previous beliefs, leading them to support more liberty-oriented policies, even though the specific life choices may otherwise chafe or even disgust. This is a fundamentally different approach to things from that of the so-called "left", whose opinions tend to advocate for the sanction of anyone whose views wander from their impossibly narrow path of rectitude, a "sin" of which they so loudly and obstreperously accuse their perceived enemies, calling for punishments such as prison time, and for their own views to be foisted upon all by force.

  3. Marijuana Decriminalization: When confronted with new evidence, conservative politicians and voters have begun to support the decriminalization or legalization of marijuana. Some have shifted their stance due to realizing the financial benefits of tax revenue and reduced law enforcement costs, all in the face of not just the lack of evidence to support end-of-civilization predictions, but also as people have become better educated in terms of the basic principles of liberty and all that they imply regarding this long standing issue

  4. Technology and Privacy: Some conservatives have also had to reassess their views concerning privacy and technology, especially with the rise of social media and concerns about surveillance. Some have shifted toward advocating for stronger privacy protections in response to growing awareness of data misuse and the implications of technology in modern society. Lefties have taken the diametrically opposed position, that "government" needs to ban speech and spy on people who might be posting mean words.

The data to which anyone with the inclination is free to access on manifold fronts demonstrates the validity of my assertions. Those of the left persuasion tend to intransigency even in the face of evidence that overwhelmingly destroys their positions, whereas those of a right inclination are far more likely to alter their views in light of evidence that calls into question their beliefs on any given issue. Clearly, lefties tend to be ideologues, whereas those whom they view as their most bitter rivals tend to be far more open to persuasion, given the right arguments, data, and other evidence. These differences reflect a fundamental dissimilarity of character between the two populations, and further cast a very clear picture as to whose general demeanor comports itself to the higher standard of behavioral ethics. To my way of thinking, those who ID as "left" have a deep and dangerous problem not only of the ethic to which they have chosen to ally themselves, but of a moral fabric that would prompt them to choose such an ethic. And if their individual issue lies not in their moral choices, but rather in their capacities of intellect, more's the pity. The one leaves choice as an option, whereas the other closes that door for want of ability. Let us hope that our brethren who have by their will chosen a bereft ethical standard will one day see the light and set course in its precise direction. As for the rest, they must be relegated to the silence of irrelevancy. It is a choice I do not relish, but such people do pose non-trivial threats to the rights and freedoms of all men. They must not be allowed to bring to the world tyranny any greater that that to which they have already so generously treated us. Indeed, the time is nigh that we begin rolling back the clock on all the perditions that have been foisted upon us. The age of instant information cross-loading holds out to humanity the promise of breaking the Tyrant's hold on our throats.
Mors omnibus tyrannide!

Death to all tyranny! 

We no longer need it, nor do we accept it.

Be well, and may God bless us, each and every one†††, even you lefties out there. We may yet become friends, or at least friendly with one another. Let us not be enemies, for that is exactly what the Tyrant wants. So long as we fight one another, we're not fighting him. Think on that awhile.

Until next time, please accept my best wishes.
