3. Anti-System
I started to recognize, what we thought were just a few “bad people” at the top, is really a system dedicated to destroy. Removing those “bad-apples”, only makes room for the next batch.
It is difficult to make generalizations, but easy to understand our trajectory. So where is this “anti-system”? Somehow it places their agents in the outward systems of power, and is able to compromise others that it didn’t directly place. They are also able to replace any non-cooperating person by tarnishing their record. It is a purifying process, (purifying their grasp of control), which is a multi-decade project. (Really 100’s of years, but it seems things are coming to a head.)
1. FALSEHOOD AS A PRINCIPLE. Gumilev writes on Anti-System
If you don’t think in the terms of “system”, it may appear that there are a few “bad people” out there, and they gravitate toward running the show. Apart from them, everything is OK. I am proposing that the search for “Evil Men” obfuscates the real problem, which is a cultural stereo-type that uses violence as a tool. Maybe the main tool, or at least…
2. Aggression Defined as Man’s Nature can never be Investigated further
“Action on the ground” means when we look at culture, truly admirable statues and paintings of the Renaissance, we lose sight of many things. In particular, the fact that all the cultural content of the Renaissance was created by the work of several dozen talented artists and humanists fascinated by antiquity, at a time when manslaughter was a daily occ…
3. “Anti-System Overview” carried into the 20th Century
I had alleged: all Europeans have long sought to damage their neighbor for many 100’s of years. In the last post #2 we took a survey of European hate and violence from about 800 AD to 1,800 AD. We found all ethnicities were killing each other for some supposed advantage, and especially true between England and France. This is not to ignore the reflec…
4. This thread (and its INDEX) discusses the anti-system, life-negation.
People are motivated by both negative and positive belief systems. Shouldn’t we take negative speech seriously? Are they just joking or bluffing? We are lucky this week, in that Benjamin Netanyahu has been giving Bible lessons. What he is teaching is of the most repulsive justifications, but it is good to know that it is all in his sacred texts. Ou…
5. Did you see Larry Jonson's post today?
A CONDENSED HISTORY OF ISRAEL https://sonar21.com/a-condensed-history-of-israel/ Larry says: Consider this a public service. I am not pretending to be a scholar of Middle East history by any stretch. Yet, I’m pretty sure that the majority of people of all races and religions do not understand the 3023 year history of the lands now called Israel and Palest…
6. The 'Judaic-Christian tradition' and 'common values of the monotheistic religions'
If you read something that you consider (by your judgement), as criticizing; you might call it anti-Semitic. But if you're reading it in the Jewish Talmud; that's just the way that it is. One people's judgements are not based on any "universal standards" of another people's judgements. Even their nervous system and emotional contents are wired diff…
The Myth That India’s Freedom Was Won Nonviolently Is Holding Back Progress
Link to the article [Here there are a lot of links to books and sources, that I have NOT read. I am only posting this article. Discussion of non-violence at the end: “Nonviolence is a means that involves begging the powerful for concessions and inviting them to do violence without consequences for themselves: it leads to a society with an elite that fee…
9. Whitewashing Terrorists into National Heroes (Nazis)
Creating “The Book of Facts” During Yushchenko’s reign, his government repeatedly moved to make national heroes out of the OUN and UPA. They claimed these SS henchmen were wonderful, inclusive organizations that not only saved Jews but fought as their allies against both Hitler and Stalin.[725] They said
