Declaration of War
You can't stand against the truth and get away with it. We're gonna make sure of that.
Reorient
When COVID hit, I’d reached an impasse on my book manuscript and was looking for an editor to help me cull and organize it.
Suddenly, the world went tits-up bonkers.
Several of my sons lost their jobs. Everyone in my family was shaken, just like everyone else where fascist mutherfuckers -- yeah, @JayInslee, I mean shit-for-brains dildos like you -- hijacked dictatorial power using public health as an excuse.
A couple of my boys renewed their interest in FOREX trading, hoping to generate some cash that way. I dived into it with them, crossing my fingers that, between all those smart heads, we could make it work.
By fall 2021 we admitted defeat, at least temporarily. I hung up my trading spurs to focus on the last few weeks I could still spend with my grandkids and their parents before they abandoned the state.
They had decided to leave Washington because, among other things, it looked like the schools would force their children into masks and vaccine injections, and they were having none of it, no fucking way. So, on the invitation of our friend in Texas, they got rid of almost everything they had, bought a van and a trailer to haul what was left, and headed down the coast to say hi-and-goodbye to family and friends along the way to one of the few states that hadn’t completely lost its mind.
It wasn’t until February, 2022, that I finally manage to swing fleeing Seattle. I’d certainly had enough of the noxious, DWTD fluff-for-brains COVID hysteria and openly malicious public behavior by that time. So, at last, I headed down to New Mexico to meet up with my son, DIL, and grandkids. We hung out there for a week, headed on into Texas, and ended up where we are now: an RV park in the little town of Alpine, in the “Big Bend” area.
We love it.
They still treat you like a person down here, even if they can see your face.
I departed the Evergreen State with what little I could stuff into the compact car my son left me when he emigrated to Mexico City early in 2021. Now I’m in my own “fifth wheel” RV, my writing station is almost set up, and I’m ready to get back to what I was doing before the collective mind sprung a leak and bloody hellshit broke loose.
The question is, now, where to start?
Regroup
I’m guessing that at least half my book was rendered redundant by the events of the last three years, because now everyone has seen for themselves what I was trying to describe.
That’s right, three years.
I saw what was going on in January 2019 when they conducted the dry run for CONVID. (And if you’re scratching your head at that, you really need to listen to me.)
I had no doubt what would be coming next. It was all about the vaccines. I knew then that they wanted to hook us up and keep us dangling from a permanent, continual, chemical drip delivery system.
Three and a half years later, look where we are now.
“Mass formation psychosis” is hardly the half of it, but it’s a huge step towards understanding what’s long been in the works.
“Medical fascism” is just a single plume of the thou-shalt brimstone catapulted at us sputtering or-else hellburn, the same caustic, toxic shit we’ve always faced. The difference now, though, is that we-the-real-people aren’t nearly as sure as we once were that this we-tell-you-what-to-do rainfire is “just the way things have to be,” “just how things work,” and — inexplicably, stupidly, because we’ve never really looked for alternatives — “how it’s always gonna be.”
I’m not quite ready to get back to my books. There will be three, a trilogy, to start. Together, they will pulverize the ten-thousand-year-old auction block of slavery that we obsequiously, incredibly call “civilization” and serve as the foundation for a sane, fully human approach to figuring out together how we want to live with each other.
I’m not quite ready to take that on, yet. But I’m more than ready, as this blog post suggests, to start writing again.
Reconnoiter
So, here goes.
I decided to start writing here on Substack. There’s certainly no lack of things to think and talk about. I hope that now I might find people who have broken free from the twisted, mind-constricting mold they hammered and forged us into all our lives, all us good little patriotic citizens.
Fuck that. It’s time to misbehave.
At this point I’m just looking for people who are able to talk about it. If we can’t manage that, we’re done. The shitty truth is: none of us know what the fuck to do. Ask anyone. Almost no one has even imagined doing anything more than tweaking what’s in place now. I know of people who sincerely believe they’ve figured out some earthshaking stuff — and they actually have, to an extent, but not enough to shake it all down.
If it leaves intact the attitudes and ideologies and systems and institutions of this grand spectacle of the macabre and idiotic, if they’re still standing afterwards, it obviously wasn’t earthshaking enough. Fixes and reforms and tweaks aren’t enough. Not even revolution is enough unless it means revolutionizing the assumptions which underlie the foundations of this millennia-long global shitshow.
I’ve been at this for 13 years, now. I can count on one fucking hand all the people I’ve met who were willing to reexamine their fundamental assumptions. That fact alone is really all the proof needed to realize we’re all flaming cultists to one degree (mostly blazing) or another.
Even the few who truly do want to see radical change — the anarchists, or even the libertarians — go only so far and no further. They don’t even seem aware of the root problems.
I’ll give you a hint: our fundamental problems do not revolve around resources, “the means of production”, “products and services”, “distribution systems”, “economic systems”, “geopolitics”, “social justice”, or any of the other hobby horses everybody seems to love rocking and bucking around and fighting from — or on the contrary – refuses even to talk about because they know they’ll end up fighting if they break their muteness.
They don’t even revolve around “religion”.
Refocus
There are two and only two fundamental problems we need to deal with, to start. One is psycho-spiritual, and the other is behavioral. All the other solutions we need will flow naturally out of dealing with these two.
Attacking anything shallower, less entrenched or less far-reaching, amounts to no more than symptom management.
I call the fundamental psycho-spiritual problem supremism. I’ll be writing a lot about it. We had no word for it, so I made one up. We have the word “supremacism”, but that’s a completely behavioral take on what I’m talking about, which means it denotes a symptom, an expression after the fact of the psycho-spiritual problem. Supremism is the debauched mentality, the rancid, evil pseudo-soul that expresses itself in supremacism.
Supremism is the delusion which arises as a dysfunctional response to long-term traumatic abuse. It’s guaranteed to fail precisely because it’s delusional.
Supremism is the loose yarn end we’re going to rip away to unravel the entire tapestry of problems. Eradicating supremism will initiate not the solution, but the dissolution of all those problems.
The root cause of the delusion of supremism is the delusion of self-loathing induced by long-term degradation of person inflicted on us by parents and guardians and authorities using a variety of means, including religious-ideological lies such as “original sin”, “fallen human nature”, “total depravity”, and other odious bullshit they brutalized and raped into our psyches.
The fundamental behavioral problem is our unending abuse of children. It’s a direct result of supremism as well as the principal, cyclical cause of the self-loathing for which supremism is the failed attempt to compensate.
Our abuse of children is horrific and mind-boggling — and I’m quite sure you have no clue what I mean by that, yet, but you soon will.
The way we continue to abuse women and the elderly and the “challenged” and “minorities” and everyone else we perceive to be “weak” is horrific and mind-boggling, too — but if we face up to how we abuse children and eradicate our crimes against them, the rest will turn out to be a relative snap to fix. In so doing, we’ll have eliminated the circumstantial basis for every single fucking crime against humanity, everywhere, forever, including the “big ones”, the obscene ones, like genocide, war, xenophobia and ethnic cleansing, slavery, poverty, starvation, racism, human trafficking, socio-economic inequality, sexism, domestic abuse, “crime” – and here I’m not talking about street thugs, but the “rich” – and, in turn, most diseases.
(You didn’t really believe, did you, that the curative, healing effects of eradicating endemic social stigma, chronic trauma, and existential insecurity would, for some mysterious reason, stop short of decimating the origins of disease? I hope not. There’s no basis at all for believing that, but plenty of reason and evidence to believe it would go the whole eight yards if not all nine.)
But don’t take my word for it, not by any means.
Take your own word for it – but only after you have read what I have to say.
Resuscitate
I wouldn’t normally start with this, because you likely don’t know me, and I’d rather not come across like some crazed lunatic.
But think about it. Are the crazed lunatics the ones who remain composed, level-headed, “objective”, and calculating when they’re surrounded by unspeakable crimes against our most vulnerable and precious humanity, or the ones who go berserk and ballistic?
Is a mother going to remain composed, level-headed, “objective”, and calculating when she walks in on a family member or friend raping her 7-y-o daughter?
Are you going to fault her for losing it, shrieking like rabid hellspawn, and bashing the pervert over the head with a heavy lamp?
If so, maybe you have no realistic grasp of what’s going on here.
Maybe you need to come to.
Btw, if you’re inclined to complain, you’re not special -- no one likes smelling salts. And no, if you’re out cold, I’m not gonna let you continue in a pretended vegetative state.
Rendez-vous
Now, a little narcissistic regression, (again since you likely don’t know me.)
I don’t bullshit. I’ve lived my way to my observations and realizations and the ideas they conceived. I live what I say. Don’t mistake statements of experience and fact for rhetoric or argument (many have). Facts are not “premises”. There is no argument whether what actually happened is “valid” or “acceptable” or “true” — no intelligent one, at least — because what actually happened is the only basis we have, ultimately, for deciding what’s valid, acceptable, and true.
I don’t present theory as factual unless I’ve experienced, witnessed, and/or discovered facts, a boatload of them, consistent with the theory. That alone doesn’t make a theory “true”. It makes it worth disproving – but disproving is not dismissing. (It’s weird to have to say that, but in this liar’s world, saying it out loud is necessary.)
And I don’t stop at mere theorizing. The plausibility of a theory does not constitute evidence supporting the theory, as stupid as that is and no matter how many people act like it does. If people got that and abided by it, a good 80% of the so-called “information overload” would vanish, because the bullshit quotient is at least that high. But people don't care. Made up or hearsay, it doesn’t matter to them. If they like and it sounds reasonable —which is fine as far as it goes — they feel empowered to turn around and posture as if they “know” the fact of the matter, even the “truth” of the matter.
That’s not truth. Such people don’t know what truth is and wouldn’t know it if it bit them in the ass. I know this, because I’m looking right now at a world chock full of bloody asses attached to idiots who already “know” everything. Just ask them. Just listen.
How they figure they can do that in utter absence of facts or evidence or sound thinking is beyond anything I know how to explain, I’m sure. The Book of Proverbs describes these people in detail. It calls them “the fool”. I call them cultists. After 22 years of participation in Christian cultism, including 15 years in an organization that checks all the boxes, and 30 years of retrospection, personal ransacking, and reassessment, I see no nontrivial difference between the two.
I subject my theories to experiment, to honest testing, and I’m open, clear, and accurate about my findings of fact. And if I’m guessing (whether WAG or educated), speculating, inferring, deducing, whatever, I don’t claim otherwise.
In this bullshit world of crap slung left, right, forwards, behind, up and down, I’m kind of a rarity, and I know it. You don’t yet, most likely. But you’ll find out, soon.
It’s been strange. I don’t know what people take me for. I assume that they take me for what it would make them if they said and did like I do. In other words, their theory of mind is still underdeveloped. So, please don’t assume that I’m motivated in the same ways you are. In fact, since I’m not a crazed lunatic, but I say and do things you’d feel like a crazed lunatic to say and do, you’d be smart to assume that I’m differently motivated.
I’ve done work, both on myself and on the important issues of life, that almost no one I’ve ever met has done. I know this because I have asked many people if they’ve done something similar, and instead of affirmatives, even instead of simple recognition, I got reactions and expressions, even without a word: ‘WTF? I have no freaking clue what you just said.’
And then, all too predictably, they turned it around as if I didn’t know what the hell I had just said.
You see the confusion there, right?
You’ve got to go where I’ve been and see what I’ve seen to know what I’m talking about, but everyone seems afraid even to look, let alone set foot. There’s nothing stopping you, though. What’s more – you’ve already been there, most places, but just didn’t realize where you were thanks to all the signage telling you that you were somewhere else.
My role here is Socratic — to make you realize what you already know and what you can easily find out. I just don’t do it as politely and nicely as that old guy did.
Remonstrate
Here is what I’ve found.
99.9% of the "power" that you think "they" have (whoever might be “they” to you) is bullshit. Theater. Fiction. Celluloid. Less real than a hologram.
I know this because I know supremism, intimately, up to the mid-levels of large corporate management and up to the top levels of international church leadership. For that matter, so do you in the spheres and heights or depths you have roved around in, because it’s everywhere.
I know that “they” are supremists, because to wield power over other people requires believing that you should be or must necessarily be over those people and superior to them. The “power” and “authority” that supremists exercise over their subjects/underlings/wards/followers proves their superiority – to themselves, at least, and to their sycophants. Or so they’d wish.
Wanting any or all of that is what supremism is — whether it’s wanting to be on top or wanting someone on top of them. Acting on the basis of that evil desire — yeah, I said evil — along with the bullshit belief that what supremists want has any basis at all in reality, are what supremacism is.
Ask yourself: what kind of people want and compulsively need to prove their superiority?
Happy, healthy people?
I hope you’re starting to get it.
All “powerful” people, which necessarily means all “rich” people — in other words, all shit fuckers (human rejects who get off in their shit) — are supremists. At the very least, the very best, they believe something entitles them to hoard far more than any human has real use for — for the most part as a defense against ever again being in the position where they risk doing without, and the rest for the sake of a disease-infested breed of social status — while others grind, despair, hunger, starve, and die a thousand deaths to their dignity, shamed and mortified.
And it’s all based on lies, on deception, on bullshit narrative.
I’m sorry if that offends you, because maybe you know some nice, generous “rich” people. Maybe they were your parents or relatives or friends. You don’t like people you care about getting called “human rejects” and “shit fuckers”. I understand. Maybe you assume that I hate them or would like to see them harmed.
Yeah, when it comes to the worst of them, I admit I’ve still got, “KILL THE MUTHERFUCKERS!” in me.
I don’t like it, but it’s there. I’m driving down a highway, see a millions-dollar estate on the side of a Texas hill, and suddenly I wish I had an RPG. It’s a reaction I don’t ask for. I don’t like it, but not because it’s “wrong”.
For example, these last few weeks since I heard, I’ve been thinking about the local Seattle leader of the chapter of that Bible cult I spent 15 years in. He was recently (2019) exposed as a pedophile. He had molested young little girls for who knows how long, many of whom I knew and know and love. This went on probably the whole time I knew him. After all, pedos don’t sprout horns mid-life, and suddenly go around skewering everyone they can. It certainly was going on while he orchestrated my expulsion from the organization in the early 90s for no apparent reason other than that I “had an evil spirit”.
But now I know the reason.
Yeah, for a pedo, anyone who refuses to stop looking and pushing for the truth and won’t give in to browbeating and pulling rank is going to be a problem. For a pedo, that’s “evil”. Absolutely.
It’s not wrong to end wrongdoing. It’s not wrong to prevent ongoing, mass violation. But killing is stupid and ineffective. It doesn’t even touch the real problem. It’s infantile. I’m trying to mature.
But it’s even more infantile to let harm-doers violate people and do nothing to stop them merely because we’re afraid of being judged as immature wrongdoers.
Rennovate
The “rich” are not rich — they’re abjectly impoverished, plagued with mortally dangerous levels of keenly felt inferiority against which their compensating has run amok. Otherwise, care for their fellow beings and simple sanity would step in and curtail their obscene excesses.
I don’t care if they’ve given billions, done “great works” to “better lives”, and “helped” thousands or millions of people, because those people would have needed no help and their lives would have been just peachy if other shit fuckers, just like them, hadn’t felt “entitled” to exercise “power” and “killer instinct” to hoard all that “wealth” in the first place.
Wonderful, generous people?
The hell you say.
People don’t get themselves into position as “benefactors” by being nice and helpful and generous. How naïve must we be to watch them do precisely the opposite, but then forget all that and prop up this myth of “philanthropy”? The best they can do after those crimes is bear fruit of a poisoned tree. That’s why Jesus told the “rich young ruler” to give it all away. That’s why the “rich young ruler” couldn’t do it.
No matter who or what they might seem to us, the “rich and powerful” are terrified of us — mortally afraid that we’ll find out it’s all a demented game they invented to hide the truth: they are losers who would tremble their socks off if they had to face a real person on level ground. Without first putting us at a huge disadvantage, which usually means having a posse of mindless thugs backing them up, they won’t dare face the likes of poor, little old you or me.
If you’d tried it, if you’d called out a “rich and powerful” person to meet you and merely talk as a peer on level ground without their thug posse, person-to-person, you would have found this out already.
“Posses” as in “Congress” and “government bureaucrats” and “clergy” and “the military” and “law enforcement” and “security” and “followings”.
The “rich and powerful” have got nothing but hysteria-inspired fear working for them -- along with entire nations of hysterical, fear-enslaved pawns who act like they're serving kings and queens.
In other words, they are extortionists. They are terrorists. And if they are not literal rapists, they’re the ones who crowd around to watch.
Getting clear on this is as revolutionary as it gets.
There is no revolting against or fighting the emotional equivalent of hysterical five-year-old brats who think they’re all that, duded up in tuxedos and top hats, hiding their baby-smooths with false moustaches or plank-flats with falsies.
There are only 3 ways to do this: My way, my way, and my way! Do I make myself clear?
You realize, don’t you, that these mental Mini-Me’s truly believe that all of us – the “unwashed masses”, the “bewildered herd”, the “human resources”, “your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore” – that we want more than anything else to be them.
Clueless, megalomaniacal narcissists.
You don’t fight and kill crazed infants or their infantile fawners. The fact that you Boys are Proud only proves you’re fucking clueless how this works.
Here's what you do:
You freak them the fuck out, so that they get real and drop the act, then you take their fingers off the triggers and red buttons, and then you save them from themselves.
That’s hard to do when in our heart of hearts we idolize them and act like they’re gods, or we demonize them, having mistaken them for Satan.
Reckoning
Anyway, a few days ago, something changed for me big time, radically, and I decided to make it as public as possible. So now, you’re gonna get to know me better than you’d maybe like to.
It happened as I responded to a debate over the transgender controversy. It led me into a new stance — or maybe better said, a new level of resolve and audacity in a long-held stance.
Sexuality has always been a primary target for guilt and confusion used by psychopaths bent on controlling people.
Why?
So, that they – your political and religious “leaders” and “authorities” – can continue their mass serial rape and mass genital mutilation of children while keeping parents, relatives, friends, and everyone else spinning around the axle of their own “moral” and social and “eternal” status.
(Notice which of those are in quotes.)
You are too fucking afraid for your own sakes to expose the truth about the violation of your children.
Fucking shame on you.
You are the ones who were supposed to protect our children.
That’s right. They are not yours anymore.
You lost the “right” to call them your children the instant you refused to expose and decided to hide or excuse their rapists and mutilators.
On any day you choose, mass serial rape is perpetrated on children numbering in the tens of millions worldwide.
As of last estimate, globally, 40% of males born are deformed and traumatized in a deliberate, continual crime spree of mass genital mutilation (MGM).
1.6 billion males alive today were violated as babies or little boys, brutalized in mass male genital mutilation at the hands of people claiming to love them.
Well over 250 million females today live with the trauma and deformities of mass female genital mutilation (FGM) at the hands of people claiming to love them.
Mass serial rape has always been going on, in even greater numbers in the past, since at least as far back as we have recorded history. Mass genital mutilation of children, especially male newborns, has been going on – at least everywhere that the Abrahamic religions have metastasized – for more than 3,000 years.
All of it perpetrated and/or defended and covered up by people claiming to love their children.
Mass serial rape and genital mutilation of children are by far the greatest crimes against humanity of all, greater than all the others put together.
So, why aren’t you arguing and fighting and alienating and despising people over those crimes?
At least then there’d be something worth hating about.
Why are mass serial rape and genital mutilation of children not the biggest blips by far on your radar?
I’ll tell you why: because you’re a fucking hypocrite.
Do you truly, seriously think that there would still be wars if tens of millions of children worldwide were not genitally mutilated as babies and then raped repeatedly as they grew up?
Do you even know what the estimated frequency of rape is for the more than 10 million children sold into sex slavery?
No, you don’t. You have no fucking clue, because you have never cared enough to clue yourself in.
So, I’ll tell you.
20 – 30 times every fucking day of the year.
Every child of that ten million enslaved, on average, gets raped 20 – 30 times every single fucking day.
That’s more than 2,500 rapes, in progress right now and at every fucking second of every day of every fucking year.
And that’s not counting the tens of millions of children serial raped in domestic situations.
But, while those horrendous crimes are going on, you’re arguing like shit-faced idiots over masks and vaccine “conspiracy theories”, critical race theory, the “right” to kill human life in the womb, the definition of marriage, who is right and who is wrong in the latest forever war, who should be elected and who should be thrown out of “power”, and whether or not a person’s gender matches their genitals?
Are you fucking insane?
Yes, I think so. No doubt here. I was, too. I was for a long time. I was until quite recently.
Fucking insane.
Not just because I was dumbshit clueless, but because it’s taken me so long to get to today even after I stopped being dumbshit clueless.
Do you have any fucking idea what the ripple effects have been and will be of all those mutilations and serial rapes happening in domestic situations and the sex slave industry every single fucking day of every single fucking year, all the way back since long, long before you were born?
Any fucking clue at all?
Save your breath. I already know you have none, not one bit.
But that’s not the worst part.
The worst part is that you have never, not once in your life, cared enough to stop being a complete dumbshit about the most horrendous crimes on earth.
That’s judging from the deafening silence on the subject from the very same people who overrun and pollute the airwaves with their moronic, hypocritical bluster. That’s judging by the deafening silence from those who are too “nice” and “polite” and “considerate” to ever say a word about anything, no matter how egregious – in other words, who care more about their own status, their own reputations, their own image in the eyes of family, friends, neighbors and strangers than they do the welfare of their own violated children.
You’ve never, ever, truly cared.
How often and how passionately has anyone here discussed and argued the thousands-year-long and ongoing serial child fucker crime wave?
How many here have often and passionately discussed or argued about the genital mutilation of children wherever Euro-American colonialists have spread their psychosis, twisting, defiling, and breaking people's souls everywhere their “civilization” has infected Earth?
Your “religions” can go ahead and suck my cock. Your pretenses of “morality” and “piety” can kiss my ass.
There is no resolution to be found in the "rights" and "wrongs" that everybody's arguing about. These controversies over which people have been divorcing and expelling and shunning friends and family have been fabricated and are being manipulated and were designed to never, ever be resolved.
But who sees it? Who gets it?
As far as I can see, almost no one.
I can't believe how shit-for-brains blind people are to the fact that they’re being played. They're being used and abused and they go for it with gusto. Played like fiddles.
And while fuck-dumb, clueless adults engage in their hypocritical histrionics, as usual, children fall victim in the crossfire.
Their own children.
I've never really thought in terms of others being my enemies, even though there have been plenty of people over the decades who have seen me as their enemy.
Maybe they knew something I didn’t.
Anyway, I've changed my mind about that now.
Every single fucking adult who pursues the harm of a child -- I don't care what their reasons are, what their arguments are, what their ideologies are, what their justifications are, what they claim proves their point, or in what capacity they do it…
I AM THEIR FUCKING ENEMY.
I've felt like war for a very long time, but I don't believe in war the way most people do -- the mass killing of bodies. That's just fucking insane.
Right here and now, I am declaring myself the enemy of deliberate harm, including war.
I am the enemy of harm and the enablers of harm. I am the enemy of lying, dishonesty, secrecy, bullshit, and every other form of darkness. And I am especially an enemy of harm to children.
He said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks come, but woe to him through whom they come! It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea, than that he would cause one of these little ones to stumble. — Luke 17:1-2
Right alongside Jesus, I will help hang millstones on as many necks as necessary and throw them into the sea. Sink those child fuckers and their bullshit and malevolence forever.
Why? Because I hate them?
You might wonder that if you just don’t get it. You need to read more carefully.
Jesus said it would be better for them.
No matter. Here’s what matters:
Ally yourself with that shit, protect or hide or defend or enable or condone or excuse that shit, and you will have allied yourself with the originator of all that shit.
Christians call it "the devil".
I'm declaring war right now on all of it. That's not going to change.
You are the one who chooses where you’re going to stand, with whom you’ll stand, and where you refuse to go. I’m certainly not twisting your arm – although it’s true that spineless, codependent people have never been able to tell the difference between someone calling them out and someone twisting their arms.
You make your own choices. I don’t make them for you.
I know what I’m the enemy of. I know where I’m going to shoot.
And now, so do you.
So, don’t get in my way. Better yet, pick up your own weapon and let’s fight alongside each other.
But if you place yourself in my line of fire, that’s on you.
Recourse
“So, what’s your solution?”
That’s a fool’s question, even if it’s not rhetorical and snide.
It’s foolish to think you’d recognize a solution when you’ve been clueless about root causes.
It’s foolish to think that any one or few of us could imagine solutions, let alone design and implement solutions, without working together with all the rest of us.
It is foolish and infantile to expect others to do it for us, let alone when they try, to reject their efforts unless they pass muster in our naïve estimation. If we were smart enough to know one when we saw one, we’d be smart enough to roll our own or figure out how. But people who challenge, “So, what’s your solution?” have no intention whatsoever of lifting a little finger, let alone rolling anything.
When we can’t see and we don’t know and we won’t lift a finger, what’s our fool’s excuse for pretending armchair jurisprudence instead?
The basic rub for every hypocrite is that they truly do not want solutions. That would require them to commit and risk the one thing that’s more terrifying to them than struggling to survive in a liar’s world run by psychopaths: being judged as “wrong”.
And that’s probably to give them way too much credit. They’re probably profiting from the problem, so why would they want it solved?
Either way, unless our driving concern is the good of all of us, we’re in no shape or place to make judgments about anyone or anything at all.
It's been really hard for folks to accept and take seriously where I know we must start to bring down supremism and child abuse.
I’ve heard it over and over by this point: That can’t be the solution.
But again, how the hell can anyone tell that it can’t be the solution if they haven’t looked to see if it might be? If they haven’t tried it to see if it works? Or worse, if they refuse to try it to see if it works?
Who do people think they are, anyway – Nostradamus?
Well, then, what ARE we gonna do?
Regress
Well, first, I’ll tell you what we’re not gonna do.
Over the last several decades, there’s been much discussion about “natural law”. Mark Passio has championed a resurgence of interest in the idea. Jake Jackson has done an incredible job of fleshing the ideals of natural law into an actionable structure that, were we to put it in place, would be a massive step in the right direction.
I fully support natural law thinking and efforts to evangelize it — as far as it goes.
It just doesn’t go far enough, and the reason it falls short lies in the nature of law itself.
Law aims in the diametrically wrong direction: behind us, not ahead, targeting what we must not instead of what we want.
Law is all and only for confining, curtailing, and castigating misbehavior, or rarely, forcing “good” behavior. The very most and best (which means “worst”) it can do is incarcerate, expel, abuse, or exterminate living bodies.
No matter what we root laws in, no matter how high up the authority pyramid we go, law will never and can never touch the human soul — because law has no soul, and law has no awareness or care for soul.
Law either prescribes or prohibits, imposes or punishes.
So, law has nothing to do with love.
So, law has nothing to do with soul.
Soul is the heart of authentic humanness, whose pillars are chock full of soul. It goes far deeper, both logically and psychologically, than any and all law ever could, because the law cannot provide motivation or desire to abide by it, not even to care about it. That is why law must evoke a counterfeit care by inducing fear of violence.
The fear of violence is the only “power” that law has.
Law does not care, because law cannot care, and it cannot inspire care. But it can exploit self-centered “care” triggered by threatening violence.
Law is all and only extortion.
In contrast, authentic humanness is nothing if not care for each other and all of us all irregardless of law – which means, wholly apart from and without respect to law.
That is why Paul makes the curious statement in Galatians, after listing the so-called “fruits of the Spirit”, “… against such there is no law.”
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. – Galatians 5:22-23
You might think that laws are put in place by people who care about you, but truly think. None of those people knows you exist, so how could they care? And if someone who truly does care about you lays down the law, wouldn’t you much rather they understood you, understood what’s really going on, and stood by you as you walked through it, if not helped you through it?
Law is the imposition by the ignorant of all responsibility onto the shoulders of those that they make subject to their law.
Law is the soap that the ignorant use to wash their hands of their ice-hearted abandonment of those they could have helped if they truly had been competent, which they should have been in order to make laws, not ignorant and ice-hearted.
Law is the whitewashing of evil.
That said, now take notice of a uniquely characteristic trait of every system of “civilization” known to us at this point, from totalitarian tyrannies to democratic tyrannies to libertarian “freedom under law” to anarchism.
All of them, ultimately, refuse to rely on simple human trust.
All of them, at some point and to some degree, resort to authority – which means they resort to law, which means they resort to violence.
For supremists, trust is not nearly enough. To ensure fidelity to their systems of “civilization”, all of those systems require something over and beyond trust to impose fidelity, if necessary.
For supremists, though, the option, the right, even the entitlement to impose fidelity is always necessary.
And that is the single, fatal flaw of every -ism.
The Four Pillars of Authentic Humanness
As we look at the four pillars of authentic humanness, keep in mind how each one relates to trust in ourselves as well as in others, depends on trust in ourselves as well as in others, and not only works to secure and encourage trust, but requires trust in order to work at all.
Then, realize this: none of that is true of any -ism you can think of.
1) Be honest. Uncomfortably honest. Daringly honest. Painfully honest.
If you can’t do that, you can’t do shit. And then you’ve got no business passing judgment or criticizing anyone, let alone telling others what they should do.
Pay attention to your own inner resistance to being far more honest than you already are. Dig down and figure that shit out, because we’re not talking about something optional here, a good idea, a “best policy”.
We’re talking about the enemy of evil.
Is dishonesty evil?
You bet your fucking bottom dollar it is.
No matter what else is involved in evil, you’ll find no honesty in it, and you’ll find loads of dishonesty. There can be truth in evil – used dishonestly. Evil is always connected to darkness, not light. Evil cannot tolerate or stand up to honesty — which is why those lost in evil always resort to murdering the honest, destroying their bodies, because honest souls are completely beyond their reach, untouchable.
And the mind-blowing thing about honesty is: it’s really the only thing we need to start doing.
Honesty will inexorably lead us to the other three pillars of authentic humanness, because they’ve been wired into the foundations of our psychology. We naturally gravitate toward them as soon as we eliminate the lies and delusions that make us fear them.
I’ll be writing a lot about the incredible power of honesty, too.
When I worked in I.T., we used to talk about the Crocodile Swamp Dilemma. If you spend all your time draining the swamp, sure enough, sooner rather than later, a croc will eat you. If you spend all your time shooting crocs, the swamp will never stop spawning them.
Honesty is like a superweapon that does both at the same time.
Honesty demolishes the conditions necessary for supremism to act out as supremacism.
Honesty demolishes the conditions necessary for child abuse.
Liars and rapists and abusers hate and fear honesty. It terrifies them. It incapacitates them.
I get such a kick out of the incredulous reactions I get to the fact that honesty is this powerful. It’s a fact I’ve not only experienced all my life, but I have committed myself to it and use it often, early, and liberally. I’m tempted, just like anyone else, to fear being honest and shrink back from it, but I know better. I don’t always go as far as I should go and could go in being honest– it’s never far enough, in hindsight – but I love being honest, and I hate falling short of it; because, to fall short of honesty is to fail the truth.
And I love the truth.
There just is nothing like it.
2) Absolutely refuse to tolerate or accept anything less than peerness.
I coined supremism to denote the attitude/mentality that expresses itself in supremacism.
Supremism is the delusion that some must be superior and others inferior.
Peerness is the attitude/mentality that we and others are peers.
Supremism and peerness are not simply opposites. They are not even the same kind of thing.
Supremism holds supremacy as inevitable and inescapable, determined by factors important to the supremist: aptitude, lineage, heritage, intelligence, competence, "power", "wealth", celebrity, fame, “authority”, etc.
Peerness is determined by nothing, because it’s an offer we make to each other. We confer peerness on each other without regard to the factors that supremists hold to be determinative/definitional.
Supremism is a compulsion. Peerness is a choice.
My grandchildren are my peers, and I consider myself one of theirs. I don't need superiority or authority to interact, love, care for, guide, and protect them. And they let me know in no uncertain terms when I slip and slight or violate their personhood. And then I listen.
I apply peerness across species lines, too. Animals are my peers. Ants are my peers. Fish are my peers.
I don’t kill my peers.
3) Prioritize – absolutely – people over "property", or even more to the point, persons over shit.
To hold shit as our primary concern, manipulating it in order to influence, control, extort, or even subdue others, is to unavoidably debase persons and elevate the shit, objectifying persons as if they were subordinate to and determined by shit, even as if they were enslaved/addicted to shit.
What does the primary concern of every -ism we’ve ever devised revolve around?
Controlling the shit.
Why do people want to control the shit?
To control people, and to make sure that no one else but them can control people, and that no one else can control them.
So, regardless whether for or against persons, it’s all about the question of controlling persons by means of shit, which in turn necessarily means that persons get debased either way.
So, what does that imply about the mentalities that conceived those -isms?
They were supremist.
Why not use a far more powerful and effective alternative: direct, personal and social influence and motivation as peers/friends/beloved? People can be scared and extorted into compliance, but that's a ridiculously far cry from the motivational power and commitment that loving engenders.
The riches-and-power psychos are flat out dumbshit when it comes to the many ways that peers, friends, and the loved influence and move each other, because the kind of psychological vulnerability that peerness/friendship/love requires terrifies the shit out of them. They'd rather be obsessed with controlling and manipulating shit, because it buffers and shields them from the horrors of honest, direct, human vulnerability and contact.
So, in our war against evil, we have a mind-boggling, huge, but virtually untapped avenue of power which by nature is opaque and inscrutable to the “rich and powerful” but is intimately familiar to most of the rest of us.
4) Logically and psychologically entailed by the other pillars, insist on a completely free flow of information.
This, in turn, implies transparency, openness, and aversion to secrecy.
Are all four of these pillars required for authentic humanness?
Are they enough?
What is “authentic humanness” anyway?
What if all of this is stinky hot air wafting from a pile of bullshit?
Well, I see two options:
Argue about it until the cows come home.
Try DOING THEM and see if they’re enough, too much, or just a pile of BS.
I think you know me well enough, now, to guess which one I choose.
The dirty little secret about rejecting any of these pillars is that we would gladly accept others being honest with us (just not “too” honest, right?) and prioritizing us over property/shit, treating us as their peer (unless we flatter ourselves to be “more”), and letting information flow freely in our direction.
Any resistance to or rejection of these pillars of authentic humanness invariably is selective, regarding our responsibility to offer them to others while we’ll gladly accept others offering them to us.
In other words, any resistance or rejection of them is rooted in supremism.
Relate, Resonate
People these days make a big deal out of "empathy", and it’s well deserved, because there’s precious little left in this world.
But that’s OK.
The amazing beauty and power of these 4 pillars (besides just being smart) is that any but the most damaged person (and maybe even them) will develop empathy by accepting and adhering to them while going about their dealings with others, no moil or misery or magic required.
That’s just the way we're built.
Listening honestly to another person invariably creates relatedness, understanding and, eventually, empathy -- which is why some people are so fucking judgmental. They need a counterforce to protect them from gravitating towards empathy’s vulnerability. Judging others justifies those who want to stop listening and relating to others. It’s unnatural, so they need a powerful tool. Otherwise, simple recognition and appreciation of the preciousness of another person cannot help but eventually draw them into loving others.
That’s some scary shit for the vulnerability-phobic.
We don’t need to change first. Everyone seems to be waiting around for something to change before they’ll start doing anything.
Why is everyone so stuck on doing what they cannot?
That’s bullshit.
We just need to commit to doing whatever we can right now and take the first step.
In fact, making the commitment is the first step.
Start by doing the best you can manage right now to be true to the four pillars. You’ll see. Suddenly, steps will appear that you can take next, steps you didn’t know were there before you took that step you just took last.
You’re going to have to find out for yourself if that’s true, because no one else can take your steps for you.
Run, Rebel, Run
Me?
I’m with Chuck.
So, I write.
The book trilogy I mentioned at the start will be entitled Planet Hijack. I’m subtitling the first book Rights Charade. It will show that the essential concept of rights is bogus and meaningless except in a world where violation of people and other living beings, aka persons, is accepted and tolerated. Eliminate violation of persons, and "rights" become an incoherent idea, a cure for a problem we already stopped inflicting on ourselves. Allow violation of persons, and "rights" will not only fail -- they actually will play into, condone, support, and egg on the violations. The second book will be subtitled Mugging Provenance (ownership as extortion), and a third subtitled Authority -Social Deformity (authority as fraudulent incompetence enabler).
I turn a lot of people off because I’m adamant about doing what, in their estimation, is so "idealistic" and “unrealistic” and “naïve” that there’s no hope in hell of ever actually making it work. That's ironic, seeing it comes from people who refuse to investigate the possibility, thanks to their preconceived belief that it’s idealistic, unrealistic, and naïve. How can we tell what's realistically doable until after we've looked into it and tried to do it?
Not even the most radical anarchists have gone very far exploring these things. There have been no studies conducted – zero, zippo, nada, rien, ingenting -- on operating our affairs on a strict peer basis between people who have committed to honesty, completely free from the corrupting influence of supremists and the oppression of authority, and so, completely free from any need or place for rights. Ni sam bith. But that shouldn't be surprising, since academia has always been the lapdog bitch of the rich and would never bite the hand that feeds it and yanks its leash – and in fact never has, with only rare exceptions who scorned the heretic pyres and succumbed to them.
We don’t need to wait on any of those guys, nor anyone else, and we shouldn’t. Thousands of years of supremist “knowledge” ought to be enough to prove, to any reasonable person, that when it comes to getting the results we want, they have never known more than shitall.
ReLOVEution
The scamdemic has blast-broadcast a revelation of how truly few reasonable people there are across the world. We’ve all been “educated” into cultism. Now, with one after another garish, shocking revelation of the deception, deviousness, malevolence, and manipulation of so-called “leaders”, we need to face up to the fact that the lackeys and hired guns of the “rich and powerful” — their “authorities” and “experts” and all their other talking heads— have always stuck fast on the side of evil.
Yeah, I said it and I mean it.
This is a real war between light and darkness, goodness and evil. I just don’t reify evil the way many people do.
Anything that violates one of the 4 pillars is evil. Period.
Anything that violates people, especially our weakest, most helpless and vulnerable, is evil. Period.
Anything that violates living beings, life itself, or Earth herself, is evil. Period.
And anyone who wants to make allowances for violation, or turns blind eyes and deaf ears to the violated, or condones or supports or enables or participates in violating, or defends those who want to violate, is evil. Period.
It’s up to us, now, and we’d better fucking well get started.
What a great read. Yes why wait to call out the evil. Call it out as it occurs, in our lives every day, ten times a day. The subliminal bullying that goes on in our "normal" relationships we need to examine and hang up in the sun so we can see what they are rather than leave them unidentified in the basement. Only when we extract them out of the subterrain can we end their choke hold. The now is where it's at. The foundations or our society are made on quick sand - the law backed by force not by grace. What a savage thing to base a society on. "No matter what we root laws in, no matter how high up the authority pyramid we go, law will never and can never touch the human soul — because law has no soul, and law has no awareness or care for soul."
