Consequences Minus Truth

Guest Post by Jim Kunstler

“People crave trust in others, because God is found there.”Dom de Bailleul

The rewards of civilization have come to seem rather trashy in these bleak days of late empire; so, why even bother pretending to be civilized? This appears to be the ethos driving our politics and culture now. But driving us where? Why, to a spectacular sort of crack-up, and at warp speed, compared to the more leisurely breakdown of past societies that arrived at a similar inflection point where Murphy’s Law replaced the rule of law.

The US Military Academy at West point decided to “upgrade” its mission statement this week by deleting the phrase Duty, Honor, Country that summarized its essential moral orientation. They replaced it with an oblique reference to “Army Values,” without spelling out what these values are, exactly, which could range from “embrace the suck” to “charlie foxtrot” to “FUBAR” — all neatly applicable to our country’s current state of perplexity and dread.

Are you feeling more confident that the US military can competently defend our country? Probably more like the opposite, because the manipulation of language is being used deliberately to turn our country inside-out and upside-down. At this point we probably could not successfully pacify a Caribbean island if we had to, and you’ve got to wonder what might happen if we have to contend with countless hostile subversive cadres who have slipped across the border with the estimated nine-million others ushered in by the government’s welcome wagon.

Momentous events await. This Monday, the Supreme Court will entertain oral arguments on the case Missouri, et al. v. Joseph R. Biden, Jr., et al. The integrity of the First Amendment hinges on the decision. Do we have freedom of speech as set forth in the Constitution? Or is it conditional on how government officials feel about some set of circumstances? At issue specifically is the government’s conduct in coercing social media companies to censor opinion in order to suppress so-called “vaccine hesitancy” and to manipulate public debate in the 2020 election. Government lawyers have argued that they were merely “communicating” with Twitter, Facebook, Google, and others about “public health disinformation and election conspiracies.”

You can reasonably suppose that this was our government’s effort to disable the truth, especially as it conflicted with its own policy and activities — from supporting BLM riots to enabling election fraud to mandating dubious vaccines. Former employees of the FBI and the CIA were directly implanted in social media companies to oversee the carrying-out of censorship orders from their old headquarters. The former general counsel (top lawyer) for the FBI, James Baker, slid unnoticed into the general counsel seat at Twitter until Elon Musk bought the company late in 2022 and flushed him out. The so-called Twitter Files uncovered by indy reporters Matt Taibbi, Michael Shellenberger, and others, produced reams of emails from FBI officials nagging Twitter execs to de-platform people and bury their dissent. You can be sure these were threats, not mere suggestions.

One of the plaintiffs joined to Missouri v. Biden is Dr. Martin Kulldorff, a biostatistician and professor at the Harvard Medical School, who opposed Covid-19 lockdowns and vaccine mandates. He was one of the authors of the open letter called The Great Barrington Declaration (October, 2020) that articulated informed medical dissent for a bamboozled public. He was fired from his job at Harvard just this past week for continuing his refusal to take the vaccine. Harvard remains among a handful of institutions that still require it, despite massive evidence that it is ineffective and hazardous. Like West Point, maybe Harvard should ditch its motto, Veritas, Latin for “truth.”

A society hostile to truth can’t possibly remain civilized, because it will also be hostile to reality. That appears to be the disposition of the people running things in the USA these days. The problem, of course, is that this is not a reality-optional world, despite the wishes of many Americans (and other peoples of Western Civ) who wish it would be.

Next up for us will be “Joe Biden’s” attempt to complete the bankruptcy of our country with $7.3-trillion proposed budget, 20 percent over the previous years spending, based on a $5-billion tax increase. Good luck making that work. New York City alone is faced with paying $387 a day for food and shelter for each of an estimated 64,800 illegal immigrants, which amounts to $9.15-billion a year. The money doesn’t exist, of course. New York can thank “Joe Biden’s” executive agencies for sticking them with this unbearable burden. It will be the end of New York City. There will be no money left for public services or cultural institutions. That’s the reality and that’s the truth.

A financial crack-up is probably the only thing short of all-out war that will get the public’s attention at this point. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if it happened next week. Historians of the future, stir-frying crickets and fiddleheads over their campfires will marvel at America’s terminal act of gluttony: managing to eat itself alive.

That would be the socialists in Germany, eager to stop communism at all costs. So they allied themselves with the military and created National Socialism and hyperinflation.

It was almost entirely the French who demanded punishment for Germany after WWI, and the communists in Germany were part of the international communist movement. It was fear of them that led the French socialists to ally with the military and create National Socialism.

Didn’t the French in fact have good reason to demand reparations from Germany? I think they did, but that didn’t make it a good idea.

It seems likely the elites will take the world to war, and just as likely that they want a few billion people to suffer and starve and die of good old timey diseases like the plague and yellow fever. It makes conquest easier.

Their biggest problem will be partisan infighting among the factions who are working to destroy civilization. Each one of them wants to come out on top.

First they hit you with religion:
Judaism, Christendom, Islam.

Then they pervert you.
See:
Finally, there was the rich field of sexology: a new science consisting largely of dubious “case histories” purporting to reveal the depraved sexual habits of various anonymous patients. In order to give an air of academic respectability and erudition to these masturbatory fantasies—thrilling adventure stories involving necrophilia, bestiality and handkerchief fetishism—the more exciting details were often given in vulgar Latin “in order to exclude the lay reader.” [6] However, it was not long before the Latin was diligently translated into the vernacular for the benefit of the unlatined lay reader, thus defeating the purpose of the prim “schoolmaster’s Latin”.

Wiehe reels off a long list of Jewish sexologists who he claims were in the forefront of writing such salacious treatises that were no more than pornography masquerading as science. Drs Magnus Hirschfeld [7] and Ivan Bloch [8] were the star writers in this field, their books still read avidly today by a gullible public hungry for details of the bizarre, the kinky and the perverse. Drs Ludwig Lewy-Lenz, Leo Schidrowitz, Franz Rabinowitsch, Georg Cohen, and Albert Eulenburg are some of the names Wiehe mentions.

Most Americans don’t have a taste for an armed revolution. They might miss the games on TV this weekend.

But I think most of us can get on board with some Irish Democracy, i.e, start ignoring laws; lie like hell on your taxes; retire at work, i.e., go to work but don’t do anything; and throw some sand in the gears of government whenever the opportunity arises.

Since many of us see that application of laws is selective these days, who better to make the selection on what laws are appropriate than the citizens themselves.

This really needs to be highlighted and hi-fived. The system is so fragile, the inter-dependencies so critical, the OPPORTUNITIES so apparent, one really just needs to commit to the task ahead.

You don’t have to go Full Haitian to make a difference. Just return to the King what the King has dispensed: the law when it serves you, and ignore it when it doesn’t. I have thought a lot about this. Today, in every case, government which is ostensibly the teacher of moral conduct in a civil society instead carves out special privileges and exemptions from responsibilities the rest of us must live under. So a hearty FUCK THAT to them.

Be the Elmer Fudd of Resistance…you must be vewy, vewy quiet. Find a weakness and exploit it. Tax collection is a fine place to start. Learn the system, game the system, take your spoils. I owe the government of the United States Corp. nada. Nothing, zip, zero. I have no obligation to observe the laws of a system this corrupt, other than to avoid detection. Beyond that, they may cordially go fuck themselves.

I suggest everyone do it. At some point, like wood termites quietly working their way through a piece of furniture, the system will just disintegrate. And good riddance.

Having government teach morality is like having whores teach chastity. The plan in America was to create a government so limited, and so tied down with checks and balances, that the natural bent of humans to act immorally would cause minimal damage.

Why do all you intrepid posters want to destroy civil society?

Just a heads up, be very careful in fucking with the IRS. As you might guess, they don’t play fair… You probably knew that. If you have workable ways to legally avoid taxes, let us all know. If you intend to evade taxes, you’ll end up impoverished and maybe in jail.
People who work for wages and salaries are pretty much screwed. Their only way out of paying taxes is to first quit their job.

You’re cherry picking, or maybe just accidentally looking at the worst of the worst in the Socialist City ghettos and the outlaw governments in D.C. and quite a few States.
Chaos and anarchy are a direct path to totalitarianism.
Why not focus on places where people are trying hard to preserve individual liberty and a united America?

Haven’t you noticed that Americans are leaving places where law no longer rules?

I get tired of the argument that the Constitution isn’t working, so we must abandon it, which makes as much sense as abandoning the Common Law because criminals ignore it.

Our Founders didn’t call for armed revolution until they had exhausted all possible means of avoiding one. Not only that,but there were functioning colonial/State governments throughout the Revolution. They, and the committees they created and the militias they raised and sort of trained were essential. It wasn’t just a descent into chaos and anarchy that magically turned out well.

Now would be an excellent time to examine the POSIWID explanation.

Our country- what once was our country- is now under the control of an alien administration, from the top down, in every aspect of our national identity; media, press, government, industry, corporate structures, academia, even Christianity, all in service of a foreign and hostile tribe with no allegiance or connection to the foundational principles and people that created the United States of America.

We know it, they know it and now it’s just a race to see if they can make it to the finish line in their final thrust to drive what’s left onto the rocks and pillage the wreckage.

It’s just not all that hard to grasp, it certainly shows itself to us daily, but their is an almost trancelike quality that seems to have embraced the majority into accepting their fate.

Since what is happening at the base level is God’s judgment of a wicked out of control world we are required to pass through this time of judgment. The righteous and unrighteous are all required to attend the ball. Interesting times have arrived when mankind will need to make a decision to accept Christ, to reject Christ or to simply ignore him through unbelief. As Job is quoted in his time of trouble–though my Savior slay me, yet will I trust him. At my age I am quite sure I will not make it through these troubled times but I still love and trust my Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. I will defend my home and family through these troubled times to my last breath!

That the country is under the control of an alien administration, from the top down, in every aspect of our national identity always became clear in 2015,
when 2 years after the Snowden revelations exactly nothing had happened.

My theory is they are trying to destroy America to coencide with the collapse of the Euro and its banking system.

Otherwise, America would get an infusion of capital from Europe. As well as nighly news of civil unrest there.

Ha ha. Europe is broke, bankrupt, unimaginably in debt. They can barely keep up with infusing their own economies with “capital”.

The world economy is so intertwined, one major collapse anywhere will snowball.

Countries with lots of gold might try to rebuild their own economy/financial system on a sound basis, and it might even work, if they try it.

It is not waiting for some action by Biden to put it into effect.

It goes into effect in May unless some affirmative action on the part of member states stops it.
Since it was “Biden” who proposed the amendments, “Biden” is clearly NOT going to take action to stop it. “Biden” is the “official” driving force behind it.

It is up to Congress to take that affirmative action to stop it. If they do nothing, it goes into effect in May.

They are doing nothing. They are also saying nothing about it.

When our Constitution was introduced by “We the People”, and a government was created to serve the people in certain specified ways, no sovereignty was granted to that government other than in those specified areas., which means that the government created by our Constitution has no power to cede any sovereignty to or from anyone.
They certainly aren’t granted any power to make us subjects of any foreign government or organization.

There were some things changed in the re-write by the Committee of Style that shouldn’t have been, but I don’t see a problem with your complaint.

We saw a Vision-Liam MacUistin

In the darkness of despair we saw a vision,
we lit the light of hope, and it was not extinguished!

In the desert of discouragement we saw a vision, we planted the tree of valour, and it blossomed!

In the winter of bondage we saw a vision, we melted the snow of lethargy, and a river of resurrection flowed from it.

We sent our vision aswim, like a swan on the river,
the vision became a reality, winter became summer,
bondage became freedom,and this we left to you,
as your inheritance!

O generations of Freedom remember us,
the generations of the vision.

This wonderful poem is etched into the stone , in English and Irishin the Garden of Remembrance in my moms and bros hometown, Dublin.

To paraphrase what Linus said to Charlie Brown about Christmas,

This is is what St Patrick’s Day is all about.

Remember the generation of the Vision, and salute their strength of character and determination to win their freedom , at all costs,
and prepare to do the same, the time is near☘️🇨🇦

Is it true that the statue of liberty was given to the U.S.A. by a group of French masons? And that the statue was originally built as a gift for Egypt for the Suez canal? It was originally built as effigy of the goddess ISIS but Egypt rejected it and then it was given to our country. It is placed 33 degrees due south and the Masons hidden symbology is all over it.

Is that conspiracy theory or what?

If you are worried about the military, I would like to remind you who was in charge of the US military right before the Civil War. You can’t remember you say. That’s right. I bet you know who was in charge at he end of the Civil War. A erasable drunk name US Grant. Grant was not even on the big shot list at the beginning of the war. So what happen. He was a leader of men that produced results. When enough shit hits the fan all at once nothing matters but results. It is no different today. When another major war breaks out you won’t remember who was in charge at the beginning, only who was in charge at the end.

Sure I remember, it was Winfield Scott who was old and used up by the time the Civil War started. He didn’t last long, and the generals who followed him were mostly incompetent, if in nothing else by failing to give any credit to the Rebels. When Johnny Reb didn’t turn tail and run home, they didn’t know what to do.

I remember when Obama purged the military of politically unreliable Generals/Admirals, and only hope that some real Generals have slipped through the political cracks.
