Come Home

Filed under: Uncategorized — Russ @ 5:56 am

The voice of the Earth I heard as a child:


You are murdering your only home. You are destroying the only basis of your very existence. You are committing suicide.


You are destroying all that’s beautiful in the world, all that’s wholesome, all that’s healthful, all that’s alive, all that’s human.

You listen only to the voice of the devil within you, the voice urging you to suicidal idolatry. You idolize money, you idolize technology, you idolize your media, you idolize your state institutions. In your idolatry you use every act of destruction and self-destruction you commit as the spur to ever worse abominations.


Remember what happened to the first Tower of Babel. Your second is far taller, far more top-heavy and tottering from your bad engineering. And when it comes crashing down this time you’ll lose far more than your language.

Hear again the voice of your nature, your place amid the whole, your evolution, your intact living being, your will to live.


Come back from your sundered vagrancy. Repent of your ingratitude.

Come back, return. In the end it’s the only way, your only choice.


Come home.

Springtime

Today is this site’s birthday. For twelve years in this space I’ve been writing on the same theme, opposing the rabid globalist-technocratic movement dedicated to the total destruction of the Earth and humanity. The battlefronts today are the exact same where I began: The weaponized finance sector which wags the economic civilization like the tail wagging the dog, and the technological assaults on the Earth and humanity under the fraudulent banners of public health, feeding the world, saving the environment. The interventions of high-maintenance technology never protect, heal, feed, or save but on the contrary never do anything but assault, sicken, starve, rape, kill. Those who tout such interventions out of stupidity or cynicism or cult wingnut derangement always are pure evil in intent and goal.
 
The onslaught of the worldwide coordinated terrorist mass propaganda and the world-coordinated regime based on lockdowns, aggressive coerced ritual superstition (masks and hex spacing) and gene-altering injections, all seeking their pretext in the phantom “Covid” miasma, is the final throw of the dice. The globalist-technocratic power bloc and the ideological movement that exalts it have launched a 1941-style Blitzkrieg intending to win it all at once through brute force.
 
We have two basic groups among the elites. There’s the James Bond supervillain types like Gates and Schwab who have fanatical fundamentalist visions of using genetic engineering to transform the physical human species into a “transhuman” abomination. True believers in a grand crusade, leader-popes and the rabid high-octane faithful give themselves a corresponding license to lie about details since it’s “for the greater good.” They end up lying about everything which is at all in contact with reality, and the only thing they’re truthful about is their faith in their fantasy. Fundamentalist Covidian cultism never has had the slightest relation to any physical reality but operates only in the world of mass media lies, police state violence and the grand ideal/belief/vision/nightmare.
 
Then there’s the much larger group of regular crooks and gangsters who view the whole Covid assault in terms of class war from above, economic liquidation, social control, escalating the police state and shoveling out vast amounts of corporate welfare to Big Pharma, Silicon Valley and other oligopolies. For them the whole thing’s been a combination of the usual criminal greed, opportunism, stupidity and arrogance.
 
They view the big rollout of the gene-altering injections as the solution to everything. By making these as mandatory as possible they can force the most conformity and obedience while “reopening” economies on a far more corporate-controlled basis than prior to the lockdown-driven destruction of smaller businesses and jobs, all the while ready to clamp down again with more lockdowns whenever and wherever they consider it expedient. At the same time they’ll have generated a permanent massive government gravy train for Big Drug. Of course the drug cartels will make sure all the politicians and propagandists involved are very well rewarded.
 
That’s their plan. So far the rabid masses not only are letting them get away with it but volunteer to obey and conform. Few have to be conscripted, and fewer still have the courage to be conscientious objectors.
 
Neoliberalism calculated long ago that mere political dissent is toothless in a modern mass media society, while almost all the dissenters themselves are frauds. To put it in terms of class consciousness, the “bourgeois” ideology won long ago and is the only political consciousness left among moderners.
 
Sure enough, the moment the propaganda got the right pitch and volume shrieking about a “pandemic” and the chips were down, almost every “dissident” and “activist” ran home to mama and took their place as the most abject conformist. Many ex-dissident scribblers went rabid and rushed 1914-style to volunteer to serve as junior deputy propagandists.
 
So the globalist elites calculated right about those who have worthless “dissenting” opinions about this or that political matter – when the chips are down they’ll conform. But those who actually resist the physical demands of this totalitarian offensive, those who resist getting injected upon the system’s demand, those who refused to be altered, whatever their surface “politics”, comprise an existential resistance and therefore threat. These are the real dissidents, not the now-proven-fake “political” ones whose actual mode of life long has been pure conformity.
 
Reality has become very dark. It requires the patience and endurance of the faithful. I have no choice what to write. I hear the word through the Earth and my only choice is to write it or not.
 
I’ve written hundreds of times over the years in many contexts what we who still are human and want to redeem humanity need to do. We must find comrades online and in real life and commit in a disciplined way to an organized task, toward the greater goal of creating a movement outside the system.
 
No one was interested in that before and now when the stakes radically have escalated it’s much harder than before.
 
Once and for all I finally give up on politics and the mass. The best we can do toward the mass is cast the seeds out there as far as possible for wherever the soil becomes fertile. But the main thing needful to do is for dedicated dissenters to find each other and organize for mutual self-defense; mutual spiritual and psychological support; shared social and community life; building back human economy based on local/regional food production and distribution on the basis of agroecology and food sovereignty; and to say again mutual self-defense. We must find one another in real life and not just online, which probably means organizing something online which helps us find one another in real life.
 
We need our version of Noah’s Ark, which likely will start with many improvised boats forming a Dunkirk exodus. This may have to come before our Normandy day. We know that under these conditions conventional activism is hopeless. We’re forced to resist and evade and oppose and survive an aggressive rabid fundamentalist religious tsunami. In effect we’re already a persecuted sect in the catacombs, yet we have no identity of our own. Like I said above we’re the fragments of numerous former identities now cast out on the basis of nothing but our shared will to survival, community, shared truth, shared freedom and a shared human future. All others have cast these away and now trample them. They envision a rabid future of nothing but smashed atoms amid total omnicide. We must build a new thing, a tight-knit spiritual identity dedicated to living as human beings. This already was a radical idea amid the modern economic civilization. The “Covid” onslaught has rendered it so radical as to be literally inconceivable for the rabid atoms of the mass.
 
Which I suppose is as it must be, as their rabid hallucination of the total destruction of all human qualities and values toward the goal of the total physical destruction of all natural humanity and all natural life, which means life in itself, is inconceivable and intolerable to anyone still human.

Responsibility (Remark 10/11/20)

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , — Russ @ 1:25 am

(Since I see no way to compose my posts as I’ve been used to for nearly twelve years, I’ll have to try writing elsewhere, probably mostly just short thoughts and remarks, paste here and hit “Publish”. I see no other way to continue to function at WordPress. I’m told Blogger just did the same thing to their bloggers. It’s hard to believe this is a coincidence, especially since Facebook also inflicted a pointless radical interface transformation on its users, coupled with a greatly stepped-up censorship regime. I can no longer post my pieces to my own page because of this censorship. Clearly this is a coordinated campaign to wipe out any non-mainstream-approved internet content. How am I supposed to find somewhere I can continue to post? Well, here’s today’s remark.)


The point of emphasizing that covid’s origin is unquestionably rooted in globalization is to make clear the prior culpability of these same governments that now insist the people should trust and obey them. It’s also to put in perspective what the cult is talking about when it expresses its view of “precaution”, “responsibility”, “selfishness” etc: All these are expressed from the point of view of unrepentant globalist followers that think only in terms of propping up the globalist economic civilization, no matter how toxic and deadly this actually is, as opposed to the fake deadliness of Covid. Exactly the same as with their fraudulent “green economy” scams. Anyone that continues to support poison-based agriculture, factory farms, deforestation etc can STFU about Covid.


All this is a massive exercise in projection. They project their ecocidal-genocidal crimes onto a “natural” plague, they exorcise their sins and demons by clamping on a face diaper and ritualistically “distancing” themselves from their fellow human. They think that in this way they can propitiate the Earth while they continue to destroy it and continue living the impossible, unsustainable, evil way of their economic civilization. They are wrong.

So both the top-down terror-lockdown assault and the combined astroturf/bottom-up mass death cult are propagandizing and acting from a position of bad faith and ulterior intent. No one owes them anything and no one should believe a single word they say about anything, both on the merits of the Covid controversy and on the fact of their long-running record as being nothing but wicked and corrupt liars.

Two Gifts

Filed under: Uncategorized — Russ @ 7:26 am

Two brothers were given by their father two gifts to share, a puppy and a baseball bat.

One brother loved to play with the puppy, and he liked to use the bat to hit a ball for the puppy to chase.

The second brother grabbed the bat and started clubbing the puppy, trying to kill it.

What does their father think? What should he do?

What should his brother do?

Black Horse Chronicle, October 12th. The Perspective from the Wilderness

“And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will show unto you the judgment of the great empire that sits upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of its fornication. So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness…” (Revelation 17.1-3)

Indeed, only from the wilderness can we truly see Babylon for what it is.

The Syriza Cave-In

Filed under: Uncategorized — Russ @ 10:55 am

<

Of course it’s no surprise to me. As I’ve always said of any “alternative” or allegedly “radical” political party, I’ll believe they’re really committed to fighting austerity and corporate rule when they really start DOING IT.
.
Why is this outcome so easy to predict? Let’s leave aside the probability, always high, that the political leaders were lying all along. What’s structurally wrong, as I’ve been saying for years (a few more examples, here, here, here, here), is that people are rushing to cobble together political parties without first building the coherent movement structure which is the only non-sand basis upon which radical political parties can be built.
.
Sure enough, for all its rebellious rhetoric which lasted for a few days, Syriza didn’t know how to psychologically mobilize a critical mass among the people, lacked the will to overcome the sense of cultural inferiority by telling Greece “we are the true Europe, it’s they who have surrendered to the US-dominated corporate order and become US lackeys”, lacked the movement core ready to undergo the blood, sweat, tears, and toil that will be necessary to break free of Euro-domination, and ready to exercise the ruthless resolve that would be necessary against any counter-liberation, pro-austerity reactions. In the quickly-reached end they were a timorous head without a body.
.
The lesson again: Whatever your view of how radical the changes need to be, if you want any real change at all you can’t put the party horse before the movement cart. We first need to build a coherent, committed, aggressive anti-corporate, anti-austerity movement.
.
I’ll be writing more soon on my ideas for building corporate abolitionist movements in every sector, of course with special reference to my specialty, the movement to abolish corporate agriculture, which I believe is the most critical sector and at the same time the one that offers the most opportunities for citizen action from outside the system.

Blog Hibernation

Filed under: Uncategorized — Russ @ 3:23 am

I’ve decided to take a few months off from regular blogging in order to rest, collect my thoughts, and take stock of the situation. I also have some study I need to undertake, and I want to give it my undivided attention.
 
So my plan is to put the blog into partial hibernation until sometime this spring. I may still post from time to time over the winter, but there’s no regular schedule for it. I intend to return to full-scale posting in spring.
 
I want to say thanks to my readers and commenters, and I hope you won’t forget me while I’m gone.
 
Let me know in comments if people would still like to have open threads at this blog. I’ll still put up short posts to allow for that, and participate in the threads.

Hello, and Program Note

Filed under: Uncategorized — Russ @ 1:38 pm
              .
Hi everyone, I just wanted to apologize for being absent for another week just after my long break. It was a combination of being busy with some things and a lingering uncertainty about how to start the next phase of the blog. But I should be resuming normal programming, for good this time, in the next few days.
 
In the meantime, thanks to everyone who’s been bearing with me the last few weeks.

Programming Note

Filed under: Uncategorized — Russ @ 6:54 am

Hi everyone. Sorry I’m getting off to a sluggish start this year, but I’ve been out sick for a few days now, and haven’t wanted to do much on the computer.

But I’m feeling better today, and should be back on track in a day or two.

Smugman

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: — Russ @ 2:19 am

 

In light of Paul Krugman’s recent pro-corporate proclamation, where he sneers that we should just lie back and enjoy corporate tyranny, that to want to fight it is “so sixties” anyway, I thought I’d ask a few questions about him of those who still believe in him.
 
The contention is that he’s a reformist, and even among those who reject reformism there’s a residual affection for him. Everything he says is, on its face, reformist at best. But as I’ve traced in many posts, I think he’s actually a pro-bank, pro-austerity manipulator who only poses as a citizen. Others think his pro-bank aspects are the pose. If he’s really a citizen advocate, that’s the secret. Others think they can detect this citizen advocacy in him, but it seems to me they can never adequately explain it. My explanation for what I think is a scam is that it’s precisely because Krugman has such (fraudulent) progressive credibility that he can astroturf better by posing as a real progressive, even though he’s not really that even in his pose.
 
But here’s my questions (versions of this can apply to many others as well):
 
1. You think Krugman is secretly on our side, and that if he had the power he’d come out in open opposition to the system. But he thinks he lacks that power, so he tries to change from within, tries to nudge, tries to persuade, to convince. “I joined the Party because I hoped to be a moderating influence from within.” You think he’s an appeaser, and you support him in that even if you reject it in others.
 
2. For the sake of argument, let’s say that’s true. But we know for a fact that appeasement of a criminal aggressor doesn’t work. It’s been tried innumerable times throughout history, and has failed every time. So even if that’s Krugman’s real mindset (I doubt it, but I grant it’s possible), it’s a pointless mindset. And when he explicitly rejects class war as being the enemy’s motive, it’s an objectively harmful, malicious mindset.
 
3. Krugman may possibly be that dumb, but why should any of us? So even if that is his mindset and strategy, why would anyone support him in it?
 
4. Why oppose my criticism of him? If Krugman is who you think he is, then my criticism would fall into the “make him do it” category. Because it’s clear that if Krugman really were on our side, the best thing he could do would be to come out in open opposition.
 
5. But again, I don’t believe that’s what he really is. I think he’s on their side, playing his role, which is make some of their worst crimes look “progressively” palatable. So I’m not trying to “make him do it”. I’m trying to convince people that Krugman is not our secret friend, but our enemy.
 
But he can prove me wrong any time he pleases.
