Signs of a descent into darkness
Wednesday, July 8, 2009
Just two of many, another is a descent into fascism but this, because of the gravity of the matter, requires a separate item.
The Greens’ lie of, Co2 emissions causes global warming is, in the assault against science that it is, is a descent into belief in magical forces. This is primitive savagery. It did not occur because the Greens’ cult was admired in its beginnings, not that the Greens’ cult was new, its beliefs were laid in the rot of Hobbes and Rousseau, in the Romantic movement, fused together in the second half of the 19th century. It was useful for socialists.
The Greens’ movement was not a spontaneous Western movement. It was established by the KGB in the 1960’s beginning with West Germany. It was the application of Stalin’s doctrine on how to enslave the West to the Soviet tyranny, summed up by von Mises in Planned Chaos.
The contention between Stalin and Trotsky following the death of Lenin was their thirst to wield absolute power and a question of tactics. Von Mises:
He (Trotsky) tried to construct a Trotsky doctrine as distinguished from the Stalin doctrine. He branded Stalin’s policies as an apostasy from the sacred legacy of Marx and Lenin. Stalin retorted in the same way. In fact, however, the conflict was a rivalry of two men, not a conflict of antagonistic ideas and principles. There was some minor dissent with regard to tactical methods. But in all essential matters Stalin and Trotsky were in agreement.
… Stalin was not deluded by the spurious tenets of dialectical materialism…
Trotsky was so blinded by his orthodoxy that he refused to admit that the Bolshevist methods had failed. But Stalin realized it very well. He did not abandon the idea of instigating revolutionary outbreaks in all foreign countries and of conquering the whole world for the Soviets. But he was fully aware of the fact that it was necessary to postpone the aggression for a few years and to resort to new methods for its execution.
The Greens’ movement was conceived and established as an anti-capitalist (-free market) front that should not be traced directly to the Soviet regime. It should appear an entirely spontaneous movement of Western youths united in a concern for ‘nature’. It required recruitment and indoctrination of youths into the formal beliefs of the ‘movement’ by a cadre who knew exactly what the aim for the movement is. Their target was well off, middle class youths. The Soviet regime collapsed but the KGB has obtained a tremendous victory in its aim.
We know it has been successful because while the ‘main stream’ ridiculed Greens, they adopted their ideas and the main culprits were politicians of ‘mainstream major parties’ who found in the diseased ideas of the Greens an excuse to extend state power. This was the origin of the IPCC. The IPCC was inaugurated as a political cudgel. Science and the truth of the Greens’ claims was not its brief. Its function was nothing more than a propaganda mission for the Right to advance statist control and for the Left socialist tyranny.
Yet, in sneering at the Greens (certainly the Right in Australia and even enough on the Left made a great show of their ‘contempt’ for the ga ga Greens), the Greens made appalling inroads. They indoctrinated large numbers of youths. It was very noticeable by the 1990’s, in the sheer numbers of youngsters canvassing for the Greens in the streets of Melbourne.
Peter Garrett is one of the corrupters of youth. And this scumbag is considered fit to hold a seat in Federal parliament! From this, the Greens have built a large voting block, and the number of Greens MPs is the hard, incontrovertible evidence. But this is due to ‘mainstream’ politicians and their advisers who conceded core, destructive Greens lies. They handed the Greens territory.
“Mainstream politicians”, their staffers and their think tank advisers did not smash the Greens. They propagated the horrendous beliefs and cult of the Greens and to check this, three Right-wing MPs caused tremendous damage when they were ministers in the Howard Cabinet -
They are David Kemp, Malcolm Turnbull and Ian Campbell.
They rammed down measures that Rudd and Wong are intensifying, expanding, and will finish Australians off altogether with Co2 taxation. This totalitarian pogrom has been advanced by the Right. The CIS has dropped all pretence and is running propaganda on behalf of the cult of the diseased Greens.
The damage is great. The lies are pumped into schoolchildren as science. The lies fill airwaves and newspapers and everyday speech. There are many Australians who, while they laugh at the Greens, nonetheless believe the great excuse for totalitarian measures is true.
Notice that weather reports predicate gales and storms, hurricanes and floods as ‘wild weather’. The expression was coined by the boosters of the lie to instill the notion that it is being caused by Co2 emissions altering climate. TV, radio, newspapers are truly appalling.
Sign No 2
Ttalian fascist regime was satisfied with its ” home-grown ingredient of Fascism… the theatrical style of its processions, shows and festivals” (Von Mises, ibid.). Much the same can be said of the National Socialist regime of Germany and its pageants and national, organised sport, and mass rallies.
The Soviet regime was also committed to organised sport. “Universities” dedicated to sport were set up. A few years ago I was approached by a product of one of those “universities”. His English was very bad and he was desperate for a better paying job.
He wanted a city job no less. He assumed anyone in a suit could hire him on the sport. A few questions quickly established he had no experience to equip him for what he believed to be vacancies oozing out of every office floor. He showed no comprehension of business and markets and how to work in them or do some sort of work for enterprises. Further questioning dragged out his ‘expertise’, he had a degree in sport from one of the Soviet sports universities. He related he has a young family to support. Though sympathetic to the poor man, sympathy doesn’t help those so badly astray and in a nasty predicament.
What do we see in Australia but academies of sport, professors of sport, scholarships for ‘underegraduates in sport.
And, the sheer numbers of school students ‘asipring to a career as professional, well paid sportsmen and sportswomen’. These youngsters are clueless. The tremendous sums local councils, States and Federal politicians swipe from Australians to throw at organised sport and call it “investment”, has created the delusion that many youngsters can not only aspire to ‘well paid sporting careers’ but they are entitled to have one. This is all wrapped up in strident Nationalist expression.
Today, however, things have degenerated further. The mass, cultic hysteria over the death of Michael Jackson is another sign. It was stunning that, as reported in the news, there were some who even committed suicide. Another way of looking at it is through the Herald Sun and its exaggerated reporting of the recent marriage of Rove McManus to Tamsa Watson
“Rove is happy now”. When his first wife died, it was the same poisonous, superficial sentiment which could be summed up as, Rove is unhappy now.
This is not a callous snipe against Rove, his first wife and second wife. On the other hand, many watch their closest die from cancer. They have to bear up. Someone dies in an accident or a crash, it is horrible, and Christians might pause for the dead, but life goes on. It is the bereaved to whom grief properly belongs. Grief, the modest suffers alone, unnoticed, the departed are departed.
So, in the collectivist cults of today, according to the Herald Sun, when Rove is sad, we are all sad. When he is happy, we are all happy. When he grieves we feel his pain because he is so so important to everyone.
To use the ugly expression, x has meant so much to the lives of all, he changed their lives and made them better. X “was there for you”. What a load of garbage. This is the garbage that stamps the cult of Michael Jackson. This garbage was the ‘content’ of the ‘eulogies’ at the mass collectivist hysteria sob-in for Michael Jackson. All over the damned radio and it’s worse.
Neslon Mandela was hooked in, and who can question Mandela who weeped crocodile tears, ‘he was our dearest friend and was there for us.’ I can and here is why:
The ANC and Nelson Mandela are hard Marxists. Arparthied was a grave injustice, but the way through it was economic freedom. The ANC used it as an excuse for their anti-freedom, totalitarian aims and terrorism. It is why Mandela does not call terrorists murdering scumbag, he calls them ‘freedom fighters’. The only thing that has given the ANC pause, induced it to not impose its grand scheme to reduce South Africa to another Marxist hell was that Mugabe got in first. As for Mandela himself:
… South Africa’s apartheid regime was no model of liberty. But even its most violent enemies enjoyed a bona-fide day in court under a judge who was not beholden to a dictator for his job (or his life.) When Nelson Mandela was convicted of “193 counts of terrorism committed between 1961 and 1963, including the preparation, manufacture and use of explosives, including 210,000 hand grenades, 48,000 anti-personnel mines, 1,500 time devices, 144 tons of ammonium nitrate,” his trial had observers from around the free world.
“The trial has been properly conducted,” wrote Anthony Sampson, correspondent for the liberal London Observer. “The judge, Mr. Justice Quartus de Wet, has been scrupulously fair.” Sampson admitted this although his own sympathies veered strongly towards Mandela. (Indeed, Sampson went on to write Nelson Mandela’s authorized biography.)
In sharp contrast, when Ruby Hart Phillips, the Havana correspondent for the Castrophile New York Times, attended a mass-trial of accused Castro-regime enemies, she gaped in horror. “The defense attorney made absolutely no defense, instead he apologized to the court for defending the prisoners,” she wrote in February 1959. “The whole procedure was sickening.” The defendants were all murdered by firing squad the following dawn.
Castro’s chief prosecutor/hangman, Che Guevara, had established the rules very succinctly: “Judicial evidence is an archaic bourgeois detail. We execute from revolutionary conviction.”

Soon after Michael Jackson died, photographs of his father in the company of “Reverend” Al Sharpton were splashed generously through newspapers. How interesting, for the “Reverend” is a vicious, treacherous hard Leftist. I recollect ‘trainee clergy’ praising the bastard, as they also adulated Mandela. Here’s an item that details only some of the nicest things about the slime:
Let us return to Adams’ fulsome praise for the self-styled Reverend Al Sharpton, race-baiting hustler and anti-Semite. Venting his left-wing loathing for Western values Adams shamelessly reported how he sat at Sharpton’s feet in the pretentiously named Hall of Justice (Rupert Murdoch’s Australian, 17/7/99)…
Isaac Abraham, for one, has no difficulty in spying Sharpton’s racist colours. This is the same Abraham who acted as a spokesman for Rosenbaum family and who tirelessly worked to bring Yankel Rosenbaum’s murderers to justice. (Yankel Rosenbaum was murdered during the 1991 Crown Heights riots in which groups of young blacks attacked Hasidic Jews).
Abraham issued a statement calling for a federal investigation of the role that Al Sharpton played in causing the massacre at Freddy’s clothing store in Harlem, stating that the “Rev. Al Sharpton is caught on tape spreading hate against Jews and whites. In Crown Heights, Sharpton did his share in inciting the riots but former Police Commissioner Lee Brown only said ‘Sharpton came close to the line of inciting but did not actually cross it’ and did nothing.”
The massacre at Freddy’s certainly exposed the viciousness of Sharpton’s racist credentials. Freddy’s Fashion Mart was a white-owned discount business in Harlem. In 1995 Sharpton helped organise a protest against its operations, accusing its staff…
the media revelation that Sharpton had suborned Louima came just as a jury found good Ol’ Al Sharpton and Co guilty of making false accusations of an especially vile nature against Steven Pagones, an assistant district attorney. In 1987 Sharpton, C. Vernon Mason and Alton Maddox accused Pagones and several white men of kidnapping, raping and sodomising Tawana Brawley. The story was found to be hoax and was dismissed by a grand jury. Pagones sued and won.
Phillip Adams: loving anti-Semites and hating President Bush
Sharpton shed crocodile tears at the ‘ceremony’, saying:
‘Michael meant so much to us all. There are those who tried to dig into the stench to get at Michael but he is better than they are. He is above the stench. He brought us a message, he gave us his message. His was the message of love.”
Well, that’s one way of looking at Michael, a walking ‘message of love’. As for the stench, there is no stench without rotting bodies and here they are in, When they are paying my salary, then I’ll worry, Arlene Peck, Brookesnews, 6/7/09.
Sir Winston Churchill was the only commoner (until Princess Diana) accorded a State Funeral. Londoners lined the streets, not out of false sentiments but out of respect for the man whose resolute action saved England.
Respect is paid to great actors who have died but there is no false collectivist sentiment. I read obituaries to mark notices of the passing of war heroes who fought against totalitarian regimes, again out of respect for the fact, that they fought to defend freedom. They were loving men, and were loved by their kith and kin, but this is entirely different, the affection and abiding love was reserved for the proper object, their dearest.
One can admire great people but that is not the same as false sentiment. The mass hysteria, crude emotion driven outpouring is infantile and centred on one-self:
It is not the action of adults. It is the expression of the developmentally arrested. A false action reflective of the spiral into collectivism. Let’s illustrate this from another direction.
Not only leftist clerics but also ‘orthodox’ clergy fulminate from pulpits the individual is a nasty ideological ‘construct’ only. Their notion of man is organistic: individuals are really no more than mere aspects of Man/Humanity. Action, emotions, experience are percieved to be particular to the individual but in reality they are flawed flashes, windows into the One Humanity. All are no more than persons, as the One Man incarnates itself into mere material bodies and it is this that generates the false perception of individuality. Behind this is, in truth, the totalitarian notion of Plato. Clergy are committed to a destructive lie.
The individual is not an ideological mistake. It is most definitely a physical truth. The clergy lie on a second account, because their organistic notion is in fact against the Christian confession. The individual is in fact paramount, a truth that cannot be surrendered without grave danger, in the Christian Confession. This is fundamental to understanding, by the way, why Bonhoeffer, Lutheran, broke with the Hegelian theologians who, following Hegel cloaked socialism in mystical garb and proclaimed it the content of the gospel.
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd pretends to know Bonhoeffer. He no more has a clue about Bonhoeffer than he does about Hayek and Austrian School Economics. On economics, he is in good company with the CIS and IPA. Rudd doesn’t merely insult Bonhoeffer. Bonhoeffer would recgonise in Rudd what he turned against and spit on the little fascist moron.
Even if Michael Jackson was not the rotten, Jew hating scumbag that he was, it still does not alter what the cult of Michael Jackson the pop singer is a sign of. The same could be said of the mass hysteria over the death of Princess Diana, whose funeral was swamped with a totally different regard than was shown on the death of Sir Winston Churchill.
The death cult of Michael Jackson only serves Israel-Jew hating, Ilsamo-fascist hugging, Obama and the treacherous Left in the Democrats and here are some more examples of their treachery and anti-semitism from Shamrak’s Report:
Israel Must be self-Reliant!
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton revealed that an Iranian attack on Israel would no longer be considered as an attack on America. Speaking during an interview on ABC TV, she said…
In other words, she has only said, Israel’s Islamo-fascist enemies can help themselves - “Go ahead destroy Israel and exterminate the Jewish people. We support you.” Unspeakable in itself but, to remind Rudd and his Attorney General, McClelland, the Islamo-fascist enemy regard destroying Israel as also the ‘beach-head’ for conquest of the West.
2. Don’t tell Jews where they can live, by Joseph Farah:
Barack Obama is taking what he and his administration refer to as “a more balanced approach to Middle East policy.”
It means the U.S. government is now using its clout with Israel to insist Jews, not Israelis, mind you, but Jews, be disallowed from living in East Jerusalem and the historically Jewish lands of Judea and Samaria, often referred to as the West Bank.
I want you to try to imagine the outrage, the horror, the outcry, the clamouring, the gnashing of teeth that would ensue if Arabs or Muslims were told they could no longer live in certain parts of Israel - let alone their own country. Of course, that would never happen with “a more balanced approach to the Middle East.”
It’s the 1930s all over again. This time, it’s the enlightened liberal voices of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama who are telling Jews where they can live, how they can live and how far they must bend if they want to live at all.
…Israel is being reduced to “Auschwitz borders.” Jews have already been told they can no longer live in the Gaza Strip. Now they are being told they can no longer choose to live in any of the areas being set aside by international elites for a future Palestinian state.
…Obama and Clinton - and, thus, by definition, you and me, the taxpayers of the United States - have determined they will yield to the racist, bigoted, anti-Semitic demands of the Palestinian Authority that no Jews be allowed to live in their new state.
… It is the official policy of the Palestinian Authority that all Jews must get off the land! Why is the United States supporting the creation of a new, racist, anti-Semitic hate state? Why is the civilized world viewing this as a prescription for peace in the region? Why is this considered an acceptable idea? Is there any other place in the world where that kind of official policy of racism and ethnic cleansing is tolerated - even condoned?
… Now, keep in mind, there are already quite a few Arab and Muslim states in the Middle East. Many of them already forbid Jews to live in them. Some prohibit Christians as well. But now, the only Jewish state in the world, and one that has a claim on the land dating back to the days of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, is being told Jews must keep off land currently under their own control, but destined for transfer to people who hate them, despise them, want to see them dead and will not even accept living peacefully with them as neighbours.
…I say, “No more ethnic cleansing. No more official anti-Semitism accepted. No more Jew-bashing. No more telling Jews where they can live, how they can - and if they can live.”
These are no more than ugly signs of the descent into darkness.
