Observations during the Holidays Part II

[see post below, it corresponds with this one]

Let me begin by saying I wish I had more time to really go into several subjects I want to discuss, but at this time, my time is horribly limited. I'm going through one of those seasons where I am forced to take a step back and observe/think and put things together rather than just shoot from the hip per se.

I'm grateful for these moments in life however because its through these time frames that I gain understanding and insight, and I'm learning how precious it truly is to sit back and listen/watch, rather than just to shoot opinions for various reasons.

During this Christmas, yes, Christmas, I found several things to be contradictory yet amusing, paradoxes and I would like to comment on them here. The post below is one, yet a small fragment of a whole that I've been connecting if thats what one wants to call it,

of the need and importance of humans caring for one another and I don't mean that in some feel good cliche sort of way either.

Maybe I should put it like this,

For starters, Capitalists and elitists LOVE the attitude of anger and resentment and the callousness caused by being self-absorbed, narcissistic and resentful. Capitalism thrives actually on the division of not just labor but yes, of family and the family unit. Not the other way around I'm afraid,

capitalism thrives on the separation of human bond between parent and child. Capitalism and particularly CORPORATIST CAPITALISM in the FASCIST sense of the word thrives on cold blooded calculations, nihilism and five year plans.

You see, the goals or the ends of so many who truly believe they are fighting to destroy Capitalism and hierarchy are actually doing the reverse, they are assisting in forming an even Stronger Capitalist-Corporatist Elitist mindset/infrastructure because they are contributing to the conditions that make fascism ripe for take over.

Once you reduce humans to numbers, to statistics, to subjects in some universal game plan for a new world order, once you strip the value of life away and once you reduce humans to mere pawns,

you've created the perfect foundation for a pyramid hierarchy. Once you strip kindness from humanity and caring from people for others, caretaking especially, you've created the perfect conditions for Eugenics, Genocide and the mass mobilization of social engineering.

Fascist despots have been perfecting this art for centuries. But, the thing is,

they don't master it alone, oh no, they master it because FOLLOWERS play willingly right into their hands.

You see that's the Fine Line I was talking about in the post below,

let me give you an example. In the ending of the book "The Grapes of Wrath" [sorry for giving ending away here but its important/relevant to discussion at hand],

where the woman nourishes the dying, demoralized, naked [analogy], bleeding old man who has done all he can to take care of his son to meet his doom, because there is no resources and the cards are deliberately stacked against him and so many others, the Mass Labor Pool is no longer necessary to propogate (sic) the wealth sector so he is Disposable,

once the woman bears her breast to him and offers him the milk to keep him alive if not just for one more day, alive from starvation,

the story ends there but the analogy or symbolism was to reveal the answer to the social question, communism. Mother Russia saves her Children, so to speak,

but, most stop right there. And hence lies the problem,

sure, the Mother State takes in and cares for the wounded and hungry child, the adult child that is, but, in life it doesn't end there,

what I mean is, in life, mothers wean their children from the breast/or the children wean and eventually learn to grow and stand on their own two feet, supporting [the ideal] one another, forming families, communities, etc....

in reality however, the Flaw within communism was simply this: that mother's {The State] breast became not something to wean from, oh no,

it became the Yoke and the Chains that bound that man to that woman for the rest of his life and then some. There WAS no weaning,

and that care turned into mastering and enslavement.

Another fine line,

a fine line between deliverance From oppression into deliverance into a far Worse Oppression.

That, that is where we tend, as humans to not foresee the future,

then, you have those who are Former masters who do not want to let go of their slaves and therefore sure, they will point out the agenda of conquering by those who rush to take over the positions of Power,

it takes one to know one, know what I'm saying...

then you get the Burke verses Paine argument. But truth be told, Both arguments have validity and are legit,

so, what is one to do?

Or as Lenin would state, What is to be Done?

You can take this and apply this to any liberation and/or emancipation movement or revolutionary struggle,

often the struggle is born out of NECESSITY, a will die if you Don't revolt, and maybe taking that chance at least to fight for the last shred of dignity is all one has left,

in other words, when humans get to that point, what is there to lose really?

I believe it takes a lot to get humans to that point and in fact, humans can take a LOT of suffering and for years before they get to that point of no return...

what concerns me however is those who utilize the misery and utilize the motivation for change,

to their OWN selfish agenda for POWER,

THAT'S RIGHT, POWER.

Not deliverance for the masses, be they ethnic groups or religious minorities or yes, women.

Yes, even the POOR,

you see there are always those who Promise to deliver the oppressed into the promise land, of course, under THEIR LEADERSHIP AND UNDER THEIR IDEOLOGY AND UNDER THEIR GUIDANCE,

KEY WORD HERE, DEMANDING OBEDIENCE TO THEIR GOALS/VALUES/SO FORTH.

Not just demanding strict adherence and obedience but absolutely no tolerance for any disagreement or deviation from the ideology that is set forth before them, that vision [of the one seeking power/or ones], of the New World promised to them.

So, rather than having a yoke cut off for good, what happens is that one yoke is simply, replaced for another yoke.

the follower/enslaved merely changes subjugation under a new Master.

Maybe that new Master is kinder, maybe not,

but you can always tell because the one key common thing these Masters have in common, be they male OR female mind you,

is, they resent and will kill, any who profess Self-Sufficiency. Not just referring to individual self-sufficiency here, oh no,

but self-driven by one or by a group, without leaders, especially those who decide to join forces and work together, forming perfect unions so to speak, to do as best as they can, to be fair to all,

all contribute to according to their needs with what they can. You see, that was the true premise of Marxism,

and in fact, it wasn't that different from the belief systems of many of the early [some] Americans who ventured away from Monarchy to form their own political systems,

sure, there were hierarchies within those and sure, they had a long ways to go, but the foundation and basis was there,

to shake off the chains of being mastered. And in all fairness, if you look deeply in those movements, it was IN those movements that yes, the ideas of women's liberation took hold, the ideas of abolishing slavery took hold, civil rights,

even within the early church. That, that is fact,

and there were those who, like Burke verses Paine, fought to maintain some of the old order, that order that says, some are worthy and virtuous to rule and others are by the ordaining of God meant to be ruled over,

its been the same old argument. But here's the thing,

regardless of where you stand on that, there has been that issue of NECESSITY,

you know the saying, no man/or woman for that fact, is an island.

Individualism and self sufficiency has its points, its benefits, and yes, is a necessity at times,

but too, so is having common ground, so too is helping one another in times of distress.

Where am I going with this,

well, its ironic really that so many profess anti-capitalism and pro-communism but then, fight to destroy the very human characters that would make communism [by voluntary that is] work,

destroy the family and turn everyone into uncaring selfish cogs, turn everyone into anti-child and self-indulgent Hedonists [that false love],

you can forget any communist society and that includes socialist society.

No, what you'll wind up with is a society that is ripe for Corporatist Capitalism and eventually, yes, SLAVERY,

with the few elites on top and the rest, slaves and that's exactly what you'll wind up with.

Women married to the STATE and being forced to bear children [that future labor pool] for the STATE when the STATE demands it or forced to have children ripped from their wombs [owned by the STATE] when its necessary for the STATE to do so.

That isn't emancipation folks,

that's slavery.

Tear apart the family unit, mold children into cogs at very young ages raised in STATE institutions and you'll have the perfect little soldiers whose parent is the STATE,

but here's the reality in that,

and you can do your own research...in those STATES that have taken over the role of Parenting [and under the lie of delivering women from motherhood], the STATE has then,

taken the role of GOD, which child is worthy to live and which child isn't, and guess what the rule of measurement is?

Their ability to WORK.

IF a child is disabled, handicapped, of wrong race, any little wrong detail, off to the orphanage [of severe and horrid abuse/neglect and yes, death] they go,

rid of them, they are not convenient for the STATE.

Those that are chosen to survive, do what they have to do to adapt and survive, some become cold and dead inside and to kill another human to them is nothing,

they are only doing what they are commanded, you see there IS NO human bonds to be concerned with, no feeling, no consciousness, no compassion.

Simply, just following the rules of disengagement.

Those who show even the slightest of compassion are put on notice, are put on probation, are watched for any signs of caving in,

to the former, the old, the class enemy, the gender enemy, of having maybe the slightest trace of the 'other'....be it race, religion or class.

I long time ago was writing some on the Origins of Totalitarianism by Arendt, (sic],

she goes into this, a lot, the creation of LONELINESS,

and to do that, the first thing, is to remind people, EMPHASIS ON REMIND, of how miserable their status is,

of how unfair they are being treated, of how oppressed they are,

and why they need to trust in this new world order and overthrow the old and all that,

and here's the thing, yes, they are oppressed, it IS unfair, there are injustices,

but where we need to stop, and really look at the alternative, is,

what are we replacing it with and why are these so called VANGUARDS so damn concerned for us?

Why are these VANGUARDS so opposed to us, us common dumb folk, organizing on our own, in our own way, to free ourselves?

Without, mind you, with embracing the YES, FANATICISM?

The FANATICS HAVE AGENDAS THAT GO FAR BEYOND JUST FREEING YOU,

you see to them, its not just about Making things a bit more fair, oh no, you see they want more than that,

they want total destruction of the 'other', the 'old', all of it,

there is no room for doubt, no room for deviation, no room for 'but maybe this',

oh no, for you see, they have it already mapped out and IF you don't play along nicely with their social engineering they have already started the process of purging you, of demonizing you, of lumping you in with the oppressor,

you see, to paint that image and to form the idea of terror and exile in the minds of people, people who by lifetime of habit,

know only how to FOLLOW.

Be very wary of what you wish for, is the saying,

you may get far more than you bargained for....

more on this later.
