184

Wednesday, January 4th, 2017

As the realization sets in that the functional side of humanity in the West has rejected Leftism and liberal democracy, the usual neurotics and unhappy people who make up the Left are campaigning to hide the dissent, as they always do.

To that end, the little totalitarians have set up a list of Twitter accounts they want censored for the crime of deviating from the Leftist narrative. We have a phrase for this: Typical Leftist Behavior (#TLB).

We — the account used to promote Amerika — made it to #184 on the list for an account that has already been shadowbanned by Twitter for several months, if not longer.

Here is the rant from the Reds:

Twitter is brimming with active Nazis who use your platform as a tool to recruit members, spread hate, and harass other users.

In the past several years, this problem has turned from a disturbing joke into a more disturbing reality. Racists and neonazis have consciously used issue coalitions to spread hate, recruit new members, undermine basic values of decency and honesty, and actively hound folks who would counter their message.

…It’s not subtle. When someone uses a #1488 hashtag or expresses their violent thoughts on the JQ, they’re clearly engaging in hate speech.

This is classic Leftist dogma, which takes the form of circular reasoning: “Assuming that our perspective is right, anything opposing us is wrong, and therefore is blasphemy against what we think is truth, and must be removed lest it make the gods angry.”

As some have pointed out, this religious view leads toward a type of intolerance of dissent so total that it has divided our society into two groups, realists who oppose it and individualists who support it:

Dylan sang of a change so profound that the older generation would not even understand it. Now, we do understand. Dylan was announcing a worldview invasion of the West by Eastern pagan thinking. In much of our culture, that invasion has become a triumph, overturning the Western Christian view of existence. We have moved from a Twoist presupposition of a Creator God who made the structures of existence and revealed his moral will, to a Oneist presupposition that rejects any Creator or pre-existing structures and believes that humanity creates its own reality and will make a better world. This is why the Left showed utter disbelief at having lost the election; traditional politics does not even enter into its worldview.

The Eastern pagan nature of Leftism, descended perhaps from the Mongol invasions of Genghis Khan, is the idea of human individualism taking precedence over natural order and an organization to existence that extends into the metaphysical. Where the West pursued transcendentals like excellence and realism, the East pursued humanity, and as a result fell into an impassive solipsism. Now we follow them through liberal democracy and Leftism.

Those who oppose this change get called whatever nasty terms the Left can dig up. At first it was “royalists,” then “elitists,” then later “classists,” until finally with Hitler they found their Emmanuel Goldstein and started calling all of us “racists” and “Nazis.” These terms now have no meaning because they designate only that the offender has disagreed with a Leftist somewhere.

Amerika will never be popular because it offers a complex, nuanced and realist vision of human existence, but also does not reject the metaphysical. It is Nietzschean conservatism at its fullest, except that it is warm to sane interpretations of religious faith and sees them as beneficial, making it closer to Plato in the end calculus than Fred Nietzsche. It does not distill intricate political issues into slogans, emotions, or other forms of manipulation. As a result, it is difficult and unpopular.

It is only thanks to those who have made an effort to seek it out that this site thrives. It endures despite Twitter censorship including mysterious mutings, the rage of the Left, and the deliberate slighting of Amerika by those on the Right who fear it as competition because its worldview is more comprehensive than ours. It thrives only because of you, our readers.

So thank you, from the bottom of my heart and those of our other writers. It is thanks to you that we are reaching the world. Today, #184… tomorrow, the world! As we push back against the Arschpresse — that is a “Nazi-era term,” journalists — and shout ZIEGE HEIL! at the top of our lungs, remember, world: reality is dangerous, and realists are pushing back for a more interesting dangerous world than the clear path to civilization collapse that Leftism (spit) offers.

Welcome to a new Dark Age.

Planned Obsolescence

Monday, January 2nd, 2017

Neoreaction gained an audience because it spoke a simple truth: governments are businesses, so there is no point having government be a business with special privileges. In this way it took after a long tradition of Rightist thought about government and its self-interest. In fact, we might call Neoreaction “space age paleoconservatism” and be correct.

Its formula possessed the advantage of raw realism in diagnosis, but not so much in prescription. Neoreaction tells us the truth about government, but where a dark enlightenment conservative would then argue for government without interest in harming its citizens, or the abolition of government in favor of aristocracy, Neoreaction argues for more government, just of a for-profit type. This self-defeats because this ultimately creates “economic democracy” and will succumb to the same problems as regular democracy since it is unclear that most people understand the relationship between their actions and the consequences that arrive afterwards.

However, Neoreaction gives us a powerful analytical tool for understanding the cultural shift afoot in the West with Brexit and the election of Donald J. Trump. In this view, government is not just a business, but a business hired for purposes by the consumers at every election. The voters delegate function to the business, and if it fails, they sever the contract created by that election because of non-performance.

This is what has happened to the postwar Left. Since The Enlightenment,™ a narrative has existed in the West: people are good because human reason is universal, and therefore, our only problem is unreasonable people, who we can tell are unreasonable because they do not accept that people are good because human reason is universal, and therefore, that our only problem is unreasonable people. Circular reasoning? Yes.

For this reason, the democratic West goes to war against anyone who wants hierarchy. The Confederate States, Germany and Soviet Union were all attacked on this basis. For the most part, the voters were content to go along with this, because since everything else seemed to be going well, it made sense that removal of the non-conformists would allow the unobstructed good to continue.

History however occurs at a time scale much larger than a human lifespan. This means that centuries go by before we see the effect of any action we have taken. And so, seventy years after the end of WWII, we are beginning to see the results of our policy of smashing down the strong and elevating the weak, which is a third world society caused by social breakdown and unlimited immigration attracted by our welfare states.

During the WWII era and afterwards, the voters hired politicians to get rid of problems that they saw as originating with those evil strong people: racial discontent, class warfare, union strikes, poverty, dictatorship, social decay and censorship. People did not want to go to the extremes that had been taken by the most visible instances of the strong-over-weak societies that contrasted the weak-over-strong democracies.

As time went on, it became clear that — as Neoreaction predicts — government took on a life of its own. It had been given a blank check, so in order to justify growth, all it had to do was connect its proposed plan to one of those fears that the voters had expressed. In this way, government grew under you-cannot-say-no illusions like anti-poverty, anti-discrimination, the war on drugs, the war on drunk driving and finally, the war on terror.

Taking its power to its ultimate extreme, governments on all sides of the ocean then began scheming to unite the world into a single open market. This enabled them to continue their plan of taxing and spending, and using that spending to “prime the pump” in perpetuity. This circular Ponzi scheme enabled governments to combine social welfare programs with aggressive consumerism, adding “wealth” to the economy in each cycle.

Leftism tells us that we should use demand-side economics which hold that if people seek money, it has value, instead of conservative supply-side economics which state that value is created only by the production of goods. Taken to the extreme, demand-side economics tend toward the circular Ponzi scheme, which uses Leftist social welfare as a means of enhancing the value of the currency.

With the “success” of these plans, which amounted to little more than inflating currency but making it plentiful, the Left found itself unopposed because no one else had experienced similar success. In actuality, a series of recessions, first small and later growing in size, hit the West because demand-side economics inevitably falters, causing the markets to devalue false gains or shrink.

At this point, the Left stood for a few things: the welfare state, globalism, diversity and political correctness. Each was necessary to achieve the ultimate end goal, which was a combination of Leftist ideology with the circular Ponzi scheme to fund it in perpetuity, while importing new people to use as permanent Leftist voters. This also gave the state new cheap labor upon which it could lavish welfare, driving the demand-side economy.

In the new millennium, reactions to this plan soured. Dumping more labor into the market devalued the wages of existing citizens, and the high taxes required to keep the circular Ponzi scheme afloat hurt them at the same time that they found their currency could buy less. But even more, people had become existentially miserable, just as they had in the former Soviet Union. There was no point working for a civilization that was obviously in decline and being carved up to be sold piecemeal, there was no unity between citizens, and most of all, no goal. For this reason, the smartest and best “checked out” or emotionally disconnected during the 1990s, allowing the mentally unstable to take over all aspects of society. These changes, the failure of Leftist economies and the increasing destabilization caused by Leftist policies all came home in the late 2000s, as the troublesome rein of the neoconservatives — Leftists in motivation but conservatives in method, like Tony Blair and George W. Bush — wound down and those leaders were replaced by more radical Leftists.

These new leaders were hired by the population to end the crises of those years, notably race relations and foreign wars, much as Bill Clinton had been elected in the 1990s to pacify the consequences of the Reagan years, which were only more volatile because they were spent un-doing the insane Leftist policies of the 1960s. Barack Obama, in particular, was elected to end the racial fracture that had become evident during the Bush years, and to restore the “good” economy under Clinton, which was really a result of the changes made during the Reagan years.

Given leadership in several countries — Sarkozy/Hollande in France, Merkel in Germany, Obama in the USA and Cameron in the UK — the globalist Leftists believed they could not fail. Instead, their ideology failed for them. Racial appeasement brought out more conflict as each group realized that it could not rule as long as other groups were present. The demand-side economy inflated currency and produced frivolous “service economy” businesses like social media instead of hard value. And most tellingly, diversity caused social fracture substantial enough to require foreign wars to keep dissent focused there instead of at home. All at once, the pillars of the Leftist Utopia began to crumble.

At this point, the voters fired their delegate leaders, although it has not yet occurred to those leaders and their allies in the propagandist media that this is the case. They also fired not just the previous seventy years of the postwar Leftist drift, but the very idea of The Enlightenment™ which states that all people are equal because they have universal reason. People rejected ideology entirely, and wanted instead to focus on time-proven solutions in the conservative manner, which has always been the tendency of people in the West.

Many became aware that, in addition to the circular Ponzi scheme, another government scam was ongoing: government specialized in inventing problems which it then claimed to solve, and when those solutions failed, it scapegoated a convenient target — right wing terrorists, third world dictators, the rich — and then broadened the failing programs as a means of giving itself power. This is a political counterpart to planned obsolescence, or the nasty habit of late-stage businesses to design products to fail so that they must be replaced.

This policy fits within the general pattern of Leftism, which is to rise in a dying civilization by offering distraction from the decline by rationalizing the decline as victory. In the Leftist view, a failure of culture and standards is “tolerance”; invasion by other nations is “diversity”; selling the nation by the pound is “globalism” and is presumed to bring wealth and happiness. This directly contradicted what the voters had hired their Leftist overlords to do, and in fact, made those concern areas worse.

However, Leftists had always had the support of intellectuals including those in the media because for these people, signaling “progressive” values was a way to adorn their personal myth with the appearance of good, much like they also liked to buy up-market products like BMW and Apple. The double strategy of distracting from the decline, and scapegoating non-threats as “the real problem,” enabled Leftists to give citizens a “game” they could win, instead of the hard work of fixing deep-seated mental, social and emotional problems that are the source of decline.

For this reason, it took many years for the cracks to appear on the facade of Leftist rule. Once they did, the wave pushed back at a cultural level as people recognized that the promised results had not been achieved. Further, the specific problems that concerned voters had worsened. This fits a typical pattern that we have seen with Leftist takeovers in Athens, Rome, France, Russia, Cuba and Venezuela.

This leads us to the question that is most important of all questions for human beings: what led to the source of our decline? Some offer analyses based on external corruption, as from this highly literate and insightful source:

If there was a breakthrough in 2016 – if there was some kind of awakening, and potential turning point; it was a realisation that the major long-term problems of The West are not accidental, nor are they due to incompetence, nor a consequence of well-meaning but short-sighted and selective self-interest; but they are because The West is ultimately ruled by an evil-motivated ‘conspiracy’.

In other words, at the highest or deepest level of global affairs, there is a dominant grouping that are primarily and strategically aiming to harm the world and its peoples.

Nothing here is incorrect, but it describes a symptom and not cause. Parasites harm their hosts. They also behave in a conspiratorial way in human societies because they can recognize each other, and will advance each other because they share a cause, which is the legitimization of parasitism. What conservatives call “moral relativism” is a symptom of equality, in which the presumption of universal human reason leads us to, by the converse, accept any ideas and results as products of the intent of people, and by the principle of equality, worthy of equal inclusion in civilization. The basic formula of this thinking is Good = Bad, meaning that “good” and “bad” are equal, seen only as preferences of the individual, and when enough individuals prefer bad, it is presumed to be good that they are able to achieve it.

This however is merely the mechanism of the parasite. The motivation of the parasite is found elsewhere. For the sake of new readers, it makes sense to offer another explanation, which is internal corruption.

Civilizations begin with inherent purpose, which is self-referential: create a thriving civilization. Once they achieve this, they enter a period of rent-seeking behavior by citizens, caused by the acceptance of many who would not have participated in the founding, but want to take part in what has been created. This arises from two factors: tool-making and genetics.

When someone observes another person using a tool, the observer adjusts the equation of why that tool is used. In the original equation, a goal exists as a cause, and the tool is used as a means to that end, or effect; in the replacement, the tool is the cause and the effect is social acceptance for having been seen doing what others have done successfully. Results are replaced by conformity.

On the genetic front, a healthy civilization improves hygiene, learning, food supply and stability. From this come conditions where more people are able to survive who would not be able to otherwise. As a result, genetic detritus accumulates in the form of incompetent and parasitic people, including criminals, perverts and grifters, with the latter group being the most destructive. These unwanted people become adept at conformity, turning civilization into a “game” where one wins by conforming and flattering others, instead of by achieving results.

Leaders at this point face an ugly conundrum. If they expel the unwanted, every person will fear for himself that he too might be exiled. If they tolerate the unwanted, they will get more of them, and bad results will occur. Thus they invent control, or the idea of applying rules to everyone to shepherd them toward goals they do not understand. This further entrenches the problem of unwanted people who are able to conform.

These unwanted conformists quickly realize an opportunity. Their leaders are afraid to act against them, so they act against these weakened leaders by forming a cult and a gang — called a Crowd — dedicated to the principle of Bad = Good, because that way, no person can be excluded on the basis of their behavior, especially the failure to achieve results. This group offers other citizens a simple choice: join us, and repeat our dogma, or have us act against you. This essentially holds the population hostage to social attack, and so over the years, the Crowd gains power and size.

As part of its campaign to take over, the Crowd must eliminate all standards which compete with its own non-standard. This places culture, heritage, religion, philosophy and values on the cutting block, but because of its nature as subversive conformist, the Crowd does not eliminate them but merely subverts them by changing the definition of terms and goals to fit the new ideal, “egalitarianism,” or the idea that since every person is presumed equal because they possess reason, all ideas and behaviors must be accepted as equal.

Crowdism takes centuries to fully gain power, but is an eternal temptation like other forms of evil, which are error rationalized in the human mind by dishonesty, specifically by denial of obvious reality. This creates a force in people that seems demonic, and may well be, because it arises from the same emptiness and need for control and affirmation that drives mythical figures of evil such as Satan.

Although we are familiar with Leftism as the source of this evil, and that view is not wrong, there is a greater source, which is the weakness in every person which threatens to overwhelm their ability to perceive any degree of reality. This weakness is individualism, which rapidly becomes solipsism, or the denial of reality as anything but an aspect of the self. Because we perceive the world through our minds, we can choose to believe our minds are the world, and this comforts people who are unwanted and need a justification for their parasitic actions. They use self-pity, or the belief that the order of nature is bad and the world is bad, to convince themselves that they are victims, and with their resentment for this perceived treatment, they rationalize their negative behavior.

Leftism is one form of Crowdism. Any belief system can be infected with Crowdism using the simple idea that everyone should be included, which is a form of self-pity projected onto other people so they can be used as a means to the end of achieving egalitarianism, which is ultimately desired by the individual in an individualistic context because it guarantees the individual inclusion without having to possibly sacrifice for it. This creates the pathology of Leftism as a series of contradictions created by the division between public statements, which manipulate others through egalitarianism, and private motivations, which are parasitic:

In particular, the most idealistic anti-Establishment cultural critics fail to perceive that Leftism is at the very root of that which they most deplore in modern life: the pervasive dishonesty and manipulation of public discourse; the iron cage of bureaucracy; the international global elite; the pacifist warmongers; the pseudo-egalitarianism of exploitative corporate power; state propaganda’ bribery and soft-terror, the corruption of education; the systematic inculcation of fear and resentment between sexes, races, nations; anti-environment fake environmentalism, and so on.

Crowdism forces its way into any organization — business, church, friend group, family, nation — by being socially powerful. It does this by manipulating appearance. In social terms, it is impossible to reject the idea that “everyone should be included” without appearing mean-spirited to others, who fear for themselves that they will not be included. Leftist tropes like equality, diversity, sexual equality and tolerance for sexual non-conformity use this method, but these are not the actual goal of Leftism; its goal is control, and it uses pleasant fictions as a means to that end.

The demonic nature of Crowdism comes from this power. It is difficult to resist, both in the individual and in the group, unless one explicitly affirms natural hierarchy and a purpose to civilization, both of which are taboo to the Crowd. These in turn require that we think by deciding on goals that are logical given their cause-effect relationships in history, or in other words, to desire time-proven ideas instead of conjectural ones like egalitarianism.

As the West looks to reverse its decline, it must heed this warning: we need a sense of natural order, a purpose for our civilization, and the will to be unsociable in order to resist Crowdism. Religion aids in this quest, as does strong national culture, which is why these are two things in Leftist crosshairs as they attempt to seize the remaining power denied to them. For now, the voters have rejected the Leftist business model, but will they reject its soul?

2017: A Year Of Authentic Hope

Wednesday, December 28th, 2016

Someone else writing about the collapse of Western Civilization formulated a description of authentic hope, which shows us that with the turning of the tide comes the certainty of victory:

On the other hand, there is no authentic hope for humanity and the biosphere generally in my not-so-humble opinion. But what do I mean by “authentic” hope? We define it by contrasting it with false (Flatland) hope. Here is what false hope looks like. False hope…

  • takes human nature out of the equation by positing a blank slate (anything is possible)
  • expresses instinctual optimism about the future, and is in this sense obligatory.
  • expresses instinctual anthropocentrism
  • expresses instinctual technophilia (technology solves all problems)

False hope thus amounts to mindless (instinctual) cheer-leading for the human species. And there is one more thing about false hope:

  • false hope is emotionally warm & fuzzy, but also ephemeral and meaningless.

For example, most everybody forgets all about that hopeful Ted Talk 5 minutes after its over. Everybody applauds, sings Kum-Ba-Yah and then goes home. Nothing much happens thereafter. In short, false hope amounts to yet another happy moment in the life of a social, story-telling species.

And now, let’s turn to authentic hope. What would that look like? Authentic hope…

  • puts human nature front and center
  • asks humans to examine and acknowledge their deeply flawed behavior without filters (blinders)
  • asks humans to examine and acknowledge the probable and primitive evolutionary roots of that behavior
  • asks the seemingly impossible by challenging humans to transcend various instinctual drives, defenses and biases in order to make fundamental, positive behavioral changes

And there is one more thing about authentic hope:

  • authentic hope is brutal; it is unrelenting. Once the process is put it place, it goes on forever and applies to everybody (no backsliding).

2008 was a year of despair. Doing what seemed to be the right thing had ended in disaster for America and Europe in the middle east. The forces of decay, emboldened by that failure, made a hardcore push to get crazy Leftists elected in the USA and EU. This prompted an onslaught of terrible policy decisions which will haunt us for many years.

On the other hand, these events made explicit the failings of the Leftist system. Problems got worse, not better, and people were existentially miserable, knowing that even if they patched up their systems, society would still be a series of meaningless acts like jobs and red tape which make life ugly and sad, which rewards only those who are already ugly and sad by dragging others down to their level.

In 2015, the pushback began. Britain opted out of the globalist project the European Union, and Americans polarized against the Leftist ideal because they saw it in action and the results were miserable. This birthed authentic hope: that not only could we defeat immediate problems, but that we could root out their origins and destroy them.

At this point, the momentum is on our side, and we only fail if we engage in meaningless extremes, or fail to engage in the necessary meaningful extreme of removing Leftism entirely and its root, the individualism/solipsism which was the weakness in the Garden of Eden and still lives in every one of us. We must defeat our social and self-centered monkey nature, and restore Western Civilization.

“You’ve had your party, now it’s over, and it’s our turn.”

Monday, December 26th, 2016

From an unlikely source:

We live in an age where bigots are newly emboldened. They treat supporters of anti-racism, feminism and LGBT rights like this: “You’ve had your party, now it’s over, and it’s our turn.” It is tempting to turn and retreat.

This accurately summarizes the Reagan/Thatcher revolution as well as the election of Donald J. Trump: the West is a fundamentally conservative place, but over the last thousand years has been under assault by liberalizing forces. At first, it gives in to these, and allows them to run amok, but then when the consequences of their actions become visible, they are rejected.

A fatal flaw within this rejection is that it does not clean up, i.e. remove the damage and bad laws left behind by the periodic Leftist takeovers such as in the 1930s, 1960s and 1990s.

People That Tell You Not To Breed Are Your Enemies

Monday, December 26th, 2016

The reaction of a certain, cretinous subset of our chattering classes to Bristol Palin’s 3rd pregnancy reminds me of a fundamental rule of life. The future belongs to those who show up. Amerikans aren’t making it. CNN describes the situation below.

The general fertility rate is the number of births out of 1,000 women between the ages of 15 to 44. In the first three months of 2016, the fertility rate in the US fell to the lowest level. The rate was 59.8 births per 1,000 women.

So how does society treat those women who still assume the responsibility of bearing the next generation. Olivia Nuzzi shows us what a classy place Jack Dorsey has helped Twitter grow into.

At this rate it would be less work for Bristol Palin to announce when she is not pregnant. https://t.co/kqAMNmeiF8

— Olivia Nuzzi (@Olivianuzzi) December 10, 2016

What inspires such total hatred of motherhood. If Amanda Marcotte is typical of anything other than the sordid steep-sided unreality of the blogosphere, I’d chalk it up to unabashed solipsism.

No matter how much free day care you throw at women, babies are still time-sucking monsters with their constant neediness. No matter how flexible you make my work schedule, my entire life would be overturned by a baby. I like my life how it is, with my ability to do what I want when I want without having to arrange for a babysitter. I like being able to watch True Detective right now and not wait until baby is in bed. I like sex in any room of the house I please. I don’t want a baby. I’ve heard your pro-baby arguments. Glad those work for you, but they are unconvincing to me. Nothing will make me want a baby.

Feeling relieved that Marcotte’s badly mutated genetic material will be blessedly Star-Saned out of the gene pool is understandable. If you wonder what sort of son this harridan would raise, give the Pearl Jam song “Jeremy” a listen. If you personally hate the idea of children that much, don’t bear or father one. The problem comes when the Amanda Marcottes of the world inspire anything other than condign, loogie-hawking, disgust. If enough people follow her lead and dare to be selfish, not much else will follow.

So how does this news strike our enemies? They love it. People who cheer and encourage childlessness want your line to disappear. They want you off the face of the planet.

If you can’t empty that Basket of Deplorables in real time, you can fix them and by that process fix it so they don’t reproduce. It is no historical accident that the ideological offspring of Margaret Sanger resent it when those they disapprove of reproduce. This is negative rather than positive eugenics. People who criticize you for breeding are not your friends.

Diversity Is Over

Sunday, December 25th, 2016

The upheaval of 2016 showed us a clear pattern: the ideals of the past seven decades, finally put into practice, ended in such disaster that people have thrown out those ideas entirely.

Globalism is dead. Political correctness is dead. And the vanguard of both, diversity, is also over. It proved to be a complete failure when despite electing an African-descended president, America experienced more racial antagonism not less, and Europe was overrun by violent, perverse and resentful “refugees” who made it clear by their behavior that this was an invasion, not an errand of mercy.

The important meme to spread is that DIVERSITY IS OVER. We tried it, it failed, and instead of blaming specific groups — Jews, Africans, Jersey Islanders — we have come to realize that the policy of diversity itself is bad. History now proclaims: multiple groups cannot coexist in the same society without destroying that society.

As a result, people are orienting themselves toward the post-diversity future. In this future, first we balkanize. Each group has its own space. As that ends as it inevitably does, with vast inequities between them, people will become more receptive to repatriation with reparation as the most compassionate alternative.

In other words, the people who are not native to the West will be going home. First, they will lose their source of income here, and the laws that give them priority over natives for hiring, renting and selling. Next, they will find their numbers dropping at the same time their home countries improve thanks to the new skills and wealth of the returnees. Finally, they will feel pressure from those who want their countries back and realize the only way to do this is to eject all but their own founding group.

We face a difficult time ahead. One extreme is cruelty, and the other self-destruction, so we must choose the middle path: firm rejection of the failed policy of diversity. This will require facing our guilt and throwing it aside, having finally realized that it was illusion all along, like everything else from the Left.

On the plus side, we are entering an age when things will make sense again. Each population will have its own nation. There will not be protected groups whose bad behavior is excused, and designated saps who are presumed to be always wrong and therefore perpetually on the hook to pay for the others. Designating one group as victims means that if the other group has anything worth taking, it will be taken unless they retreat from society entirely, which is what European-descended people have done in increasing degree for the past seven decades.

The time in which we live brings vast change. After WWII, Leftism was the only game in town, and we fought for a version of it that could work. Now we see that all versions of Leftism end up at the same place, a strikingly Soviet dystopia, and we want out. We are leaving ideology behind for time-proven realism, and that includes throwing out illusory policies like diversity, welfare, and political correctness.

Diversity created a victim narrative by which we were always assumed to be wrong and this resulted in our dispossession. Where we tried to do right, it became clear that no one else had such restraint, and the end result would be our replacement through an ugly series of rapes, murders and attacks. This has helped us wake up from the stupor of the consensual hallucination that is modernity, and re-assert ourselves.

2017 will be a time of great upheaval as the many who are riding the inertia of the past slowly come to realize that they are backing the wrong horse. The sea change has occurred, and we are just negotiating its terms now. Those who rely on that ideology find themselves dispossessed, and this has created much fear and anger, but there is no solution to that. Their side has been proven to be wrong and unrealistic.

Now a new age dawns, in which we reclaim the knowledge of the past, and carry it forward into the future. This future includes all of the hopes of classical civilization and the positive knowledge we have assembled since then, but it does not include diversity and other failed policies. Diversity is over. We are moving on to a better future instead.

Conservatives Do Not Understand Liberals

Thursday, December 22nd, 2016

Even the talking heads in the media, who have never experienced much of the world they write about, have figured out by now that Leftists exist in a bubble. We know that because they are accusing conservatives of living in a bubble; the Left always accuses you of what they are doing.

Bubbles exist for many reasons. Perhaps we read different news… perhaps. Perhaps we cluster with people like ourselves and only interact with people who understand us. Maybe it is simply “birds of a feather flock together,” or that we do not recognize the ideas and concepts which make no sense to us. But all of the above are symptoms of another cause.

We think entirely differently.

Conservatives have for years labored to explain facts and ideas to Leftists. They have tried to reach out, be bipartisan, compromise, and find some area of overlap or commonality. After all, we all want what is best for our nations and people, right?

In that assumption, we see the flaw of conservative understanding of Leftists, which starts with the grim fact that while conservatism and Leftism both operate as ideologies, only Leftism finds its basis in ideology. Where conservatism is based on time-proven best results, Leftism contains a single idea, which is “equality,” and from that all of its other ideas branch out.

Conservatives find difficult to understand that this means that for a Leftist, what is ideologically true is more important than what is true in reality. Because Leftists think in moral terms of good/bad exclusively, this means that for them, Reality is bad and ideology is its opposite, presumed to always be “good.”

Leftists do not fail to notice reality; they are bigoted against it. For them, reality is only a good thing when it can be made to coincide with ideology, and otherwise it must be suppressed because it is bad. This means that they filter out any facts or logic which does not agree with their ideology. It also means that they are spending no time on understanding reality, and all of their time in the bubble of ideology.

This gives rise to the caste system of Leftism, which has two basic groups which roughly approximate the hierarchy of a bee hive:

  1. Queens. These Controllers lead the group. They are cynical about reality and totally self-serving. For them, there is a public truth which is Leftism, and a private truth which is using the popularity granted by Leftism to achieve wealth and power. This is why people like Hugo Chavez and Hillary Clinton enter office as normal people, but leave with hundreds of millions of dollars in their bank accounts.
  2. Drones. Most Leftists are from this group which is defined by not understanding the difference between public and private truths. For them, there is only the public truth, and each time they think of it, it gives them a squirt of pleasant chemicals in the brain. They are drug addicts, in this sense, but the chemicals are within. With equality, they think, all will be accepted and conflict will end, but their real motivation is that if it is adopted, they personally will stop being afraid of social exclusion — the method society uses to police quality of citizens — because others will be forced to accept them. This is why Leftism tends toward authoritarianism: its basic appeal is that it forces the rest of society to accept the individual, which is why Leftism is a variety of individualism. This group is divided into two sub-groups:
    1. Males. These intellectuals appear to be the leaders of the Left, but what they actually do is supply pretexts, or intellectual justifications for action against non-Leftists (note: not conservatives per se, but anyone who fails to be a Leftist) and non-Leftist ideas. The Queens depend on intellectuals to supply these pretexts so that Controllers know what actions they can demand from the Leftist herd and still have it comply. This group are True Believers, meaning that they contort their minds to make what they write seem factual. Since intellectuals do nothing by themselves, the two exist in a symbiotic relationship, with intellectuals providing legitimacy for the acts of the controllers.
    2. Female workers. Your day-to-day Leftist is not supremely vested in politics for its own sake, but uses it as a means to socialize with others. If they lack conversation, they can always talk about the latest “study” by the intellectuals or the activities of their Controllers, and how good it will be when these Utopian visions are realized. The key here is recognizing that these foot soldiers are not energized by the results of these acts, but by their social appearance and symbolic meaning, because that is what gives them the squirt of dopamine that makes everything feel alright.

Once you see how the ecosystem of Leftism works, it makes sense: it is like a cult or a gang within civilization, acting against civilization so that it may use the stability of that society as a canvas to achieve its Utopian ends. Since no single act is ever satisfying, it becomes habit-forming to its members, who will eventually push to full authoritarian Communism because they need to suppress competing ways of life, and because they need that hit of brain happiness every day to feel good about being alive.

When conservatives interact with Leftists, it makes sense to first figure out what type of bee is being addressed. A Queen will never change, no matter what evidence is presented. In the same way, most of the Males — who exist only to fertilize the Queens and then die, usually from cirrhosis — will not back down, although a few of them are merely True Believers and not cynical Controllers. Female workers, on the other hand, are people without particular direction in life, and will go along with whatever the rest of the hive seems to be doing; the way to convert them is to have power and to protect them from social pressures. This is how mass politics is won.

For this reason, there is no point attempting to convince the Queens and most Males to ever convert to anything resembling conservative ideas; their entire identity and purpose is based on doing the opposite, and any attempts to compromise or bipartisanship will be seen as weakness and lead to the selling out of those conservative ideas under the conservative banner, as happened to mainstream conservatism in successive blasts over the past several centuries.

Why The Left Hates Israel

zionism

Leftists hate culture because it competes with Leftism for what gets to be the central goal of civilization. Nowhere can this be seen more clearly than in Soviet treatment of Israel, which parallels how Western Leftists treat white self-interest and Western Civilization:

The Soviets soured on Israel for three reasons. First, Israel’s first prime minister, David Ben-Gurion, decided to side with the US against the USSR in the Cold War despite the State Department’s hostility toward Israel.

Second, Ben-Gurion moved to purge Communists from the IDF and other power centers immediately after the War of Independence.

Finally, the Soviets soured on Israel because the birth of Israel awoke the yearnings of the Jews of the Soviet Union.

Those who want nationalism recognize that Communists will always corrupt it. They do so because for them, ideology is job one, and everything is secondary. So if Israel exists, it is a means to the end of World Communism (or Democrats, or whatever they are calling themselves these days).

In this way, Nationalism (or any other strong, organic belief) and Leftism are eternal enemies. They simply cannot get along because for each to achieve any of its goals is to refute the groundwork on which the other is based.

Consider what happened to the Greens. Here is an email I sent to the Green Party today:

Subject: Why I am not a Green Party member
From: Brett Stevens
To: office@gp.org

Dear Green Party,

Like many people in our world, I identify environmental damage as my biggest concern. However, when I went to the Green Party website, I saw your “four pillars”:

1. Peace
2. Ecology
3. Social Justice
4. Democracy

I find this disturbing because I am only interested in point #2 (ecology) and see no need for loading in a political agenda from one of the two major parties alongside of it.

If you advocate for ecology, that is all you must do, but you might want to think that it can co-exist with other values and lifestyles outside the Leftist agenda based one you seem to desire to impose upon us.

I feel like I am looking at the “Watermelon Party”: green on the outside, Red on the inside.

Where do I go to find a party that simply seeks ecology, without importing the two-party system through adopting the polarizing platform of one of those parties?

Cheers

Brett Stevens

This is the Leftist way: for them, ideology is the path to Utopia, and so it is the ultimate good. That recognition causes them to sort everything else on earth and in the heavens into two categories: (a) that which can be means to the end of advancing ideology, and (b) that which cannot, and therefore is an enemy.

To Leftists, lying and denying reality are not just acceptable but desired because they advance the ideology and subdue reality in order to do so. That makes the individualists/solipsists who want “equality” — translation: I do whatever I want and you must still accept me and bear the cost — feel powerful, because the threat of being wrong about how reality works is no longer on the table.

The more you look into Leftist psychology, it becomes clear why the Green Party requires three Communist planks of its platform for every Green one, and why the Soviets (and modern Democrats) reject Israel. They hate anything natural, true, real and honest because it competes for attention with their ideology!

For this reason, the argument from the Right that Leftists are nihilists is not just wrong but stupid. Nihilists reject truth, but do not replace it with ideology. Leftists reject truth because they prefer ideology. This is why you cannot have nihilist Leftists, and why Leftists are not just abstaining from realism, but actively campaigning to destroy it.

Like Israel, Western Civilization is Nationalistic and organic, and cannot coexistence with Leftism. We either end it, or it ends us, and then history will judge us as weak for having been unable to throw out the reality-deniers.

Turnaround For The West

Thursday, December 8th, 2016

From the Huntington-was-right department, Patrick J. Buchanan on the revocation of legitimacy for liberal democracy and Leftism seen with the Trump revolution:

What we seem to be seeing is a rejection, and a counterreformation against the views and values that came out of the social and political revolutions of the 1960s.

…Across the West, establishments have lost credibility.

The proliferation of minority parties, tearing off pieces of the traditional ruling parties, points to a growing distrust in ruling regimes and a return to identifying with the nation and tribe whence one came.

A concomitant of this is a growing disbelief in egalitarianism and in the equality of all races, creeds, nations, cultures and peoples.

From the end of WWII to the present day, world Leftism was given essentially a blank check to avoid (1) the Great Depression and (2) Hitler (with a possible footnote mentioning “and Stalin too”).

Instead, it delivered us into a soft totalitarian system where ideology is more important than reality, and consequently, everything is falling apart. It managed to do worse than Hitler and the Great Depression by threatening to extinguish all of us.

As a result, people see the Leftist system as failed just as much as the Soviets, and are rehabilitating some ideas from the Hitler era, namely that diversity does not work — minus the slave labor, genocide, and epic wars that made Hitlerism a failure.

With the election of Barack Obama, the Left thought it had won, when in reality, it was in its final probation period. Being unrealistic, it chose not to improve life, but to tell all of us that we were Hitlerians while advancing a suicidal Utopian agenda.
