Evil gallops roughshod over the land. It always has, but in times past the horsemen endeavored to hide the fact with some respectable effort. That is no longer the case. Fine examples of this are the various and manifold mandates that have been vomited forth by the several American governing bodies into the laps of those to whom these bodies' respective members have sworn oaths of good faith and competent service.
Fundamental human rights possess two clear and distinct aspects: the claims embodied therein, and the resultant obligations of one man to his fellows in the context of each man's validly demonstrable equal claims. For example, if I hold my claim to Life and you hold equal claim to it, then I am bound by logic to respect your claim as I expect you to honor mine. This is the Golden Rule made manifest.
As can be readily seen, the nature of our mutual obligations to one another is negative, meaning "thou shalt not"; a requirement to not act. This means that one is to refrain from taking any positive action in violation of another's rights, i.e., a valid claim to something, such as one's life. One's life, being their First Property, I may not commit murder.
The commandment is properly summarized by "thou shalt not trespass against thy fellows".
Though with us now a long time, false-authority requirements of positive action have, until recently, been relatively limited in their reach, most often couched in tacitly veiled double talk by corrupted political hacks of various sorts and stations. A very fine example of this can be seen in the manifestly absurd and deeply violative mandates with respect to the so-called "pandemic" of the so-called "covid-19" virus.
I have recently read that the state of Maine is now requiring everyone there to be vaccinated against covid-19 and that some court has upheld the fiat. The underlying logic is the diametric opposite of provably proper obligations between men, requiring people not to refrain from action (negative), but rather to require them to take specific action (positive). Unlike in times past, this mandate is in no way being soft-peddled to the public through subterfuge, but rather it is being rammed down our throats with no apologies. This represents a fundamental philosophical shift away from the proper respect of basic human rights, toward a blatantly tyrannical position that forces compliance where there exists no authority to do so.
The reasoning here is that the individual is obliged to take positive action to protect the rights and other interests of his fellows. While taking such action may be validly viewed as morally praiseworthy, it is in no way validly demonstrated as being morally obligatory.
For example, if one is walking the lonely streets of Chicago at 2 AM and witnesses a rape in progress, it cannot be validly demonstrated that he is in any way obliged to render aid and service to the victim. By the logic in question, walking away from a crime in progress would itself constitute a crime due to the individual obligation to render aid to the victims of actual crime. This, of course, is a can of worms the implications of which are far reaching, none of them good.
If the obligation to positive action were ever to be upheld as valid in Law, a very explicit door to bald-faced tyranny will have been opened, thereby lending false license to "government" at all levels to force obligations upon people that would constitute nothing less that naked, objective chattel slavery of the servant individual to the master state.
The message in these mandates pose a clear and present threat to every living individual on the planet, the precedent they would set comprising a rather large nail in the coffin for all human rights, planet-wide. These unsupported and morally invalid mandates must be resisted and rejected utterly if there is to be any future hope for humanity. It would be difficult to overstate the significance of the dangers posed by these recent developments that require forced positive-action on behalf of one's fellows. This is the very essence of authoritarian collectivism, its central pillar.
Refuse, resist, defy. Endeavor for non-compliance with that which disparages and trespasses upon your freedom. Make Themme work ever more exhaustingly for every scrap of tyranny-stolen booty that they attempt to take from us. Leave them feeling hollow and meaningless and irrelevant in everything they do and experience. Invokke Theire rage against us. Force Theire hands to go that extra mile in their evil work, petty or grand, such that they are ever more required to expose to those whom Theye violate their true faces. Leave Themme no avenue by which to escape their condign shame and guilt, that the quality of their very lives are drive to the status of mere existences so miserable, they will find themselves at the nexus that forces their hands to make the decision to step down or contrive to destroy it all. Remove from Themme the profit motive for their crimes. Make the cost far outstrip the payoff.
Tyrants can yet be stopped, but time runs thin on that, for as technology advances by the hour, the leverage wielded by those who presume, grow longer and longer, their moral inhibitions ever closer to vanishing. When single fingers can cause the deaths of millions, you then know that humankind has passed into a sphere of immense danger. We have been in that sphere for the better part of a century, wherein the moral constitution and practical survival instincts of the wielders were the only things that kept us from going over the precipice. The moral objections to universal annihilation of humanity have certainly attenuated greatly in the intervening years and, in my estimation, have effectively disappeared from reality as meaningful deterrents against imprudent action. Far more worrisome, those practical survival instincts appear to have take an immense hit, as demonstrated by the openly absurd behaviors that Theye and their useful idiots now commonly and daily manifest before television cameras.
Do not make the grave error of assuming that such people with such fingers would not dare exercise such power. If and when the Tyrant perceives a clear and present danger to himself, he will hesitate for no measurable interval to set you and your entire family to the sword. If the Tyrant perceives the threat as immediately existential in nature, I hold small doubt that he would put the entire human race to extinction. If he's going straight to hell, the rest of the world will follow him close by. Theye are precisely sufficient to the evil and insanity required to destroy all humanity in preference to giving up their power. This attitude is made manifest ever single day with little effort to hide their truer intentions, not to mention their utter contempt for us all.
All hope is yet to be lost, but I suspect that the ever onward march of technology, when placed in the hands of those in whom we have so foolishly vested our trust, stands to close off every path to self-salvation. Pray if you are so moved, but always bear in mind the old adage, "God helps those who help themselves."
Until next time, please accept my best wishes...
