The Reasonable are the Unthinking Tools of the Unreasonable

Posted on July 26, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, reasonable people will be the end of liberty, wealth and in the end… the human race. Reasonable people are mere tools of extremists, to forward their diabolical agenda, because reasonable people always believe “reasonable” is within the Overton Window. This is the case even and especially when the Overton Window has been moved to the absolute extreme, making the “reasonable” people, in truth… zealots. The “Reasonable” are the easiest to manipulate into self harm and so they are the preferred loyal opposition. All a psychopath need do is change what is acceptable speech and thus thought in respectable circles. This is easy to do, since, as Alvin Gouldner pointed out, the world bends to the intolerant. Making the reasonable the playthings of the unreasonable.

Gouldner noticed that it is always the intolerant that change society. If you think about it you will see this is true. If you are giving a dinner party for some friends and one is a Vegan, you will probably have a dish for him or her, but if they cannot tolerate meat in their presence… everyone will have to eat vegan. The intolerant call the shots. The same holds true of a political movement, a faction will get more of what it tolerates and less of what it does not tolerate. In this we see that the reasonable factions are always walked upon, while the intolerant factions get their way… no matter how absurd it is. A modern example would be, the republican party tolerates vote fraud, on the part of democrats, while democrats don’t tolerate republicans stating obvious facts.

The intolerant set the agenda by deciding what is acceptable speech and thus thought. They set the parameters within which each of us must think, to go outside those parameters results in very real consequences. Someone who speaks ugly truths, is likely to get fired from their job, attacked on social media, face death threats, be abandoned by the police, have their guns taken away and their address doxed so a mob can get them, should they care to. All of which sets very strong boundaries around what we are allowed to say and think. These boarders, set by the intolerant for everyone else, are what is called the Overton Window. It is also called political correctness, which President Truman characterized as, “Picking a turd up by the clean end.”

The reasonable then, simply stay within the Overton Window, because to do otherwise would not be reasonable. They may worry that the Overton Window is in a place that is absurd, but they hold fast to the sure knowledge their reasonableness will be recognized, and they will be put in charge. Then they can move the Overton Window back to a more reasonable place. All the while ignorant in how that which we are allowed to say and think, is not set by the tolerant and reasonable, but by the intolerant and unreasonable. Making the ideas of the reasonable and tolerant, their feelings and indeed suffering itself, irrelevant. The reasonable have agreed, by their reasonableness and tolerance, that their extermination is an acceptable end, the negotiation then, is the means.

Today the intolerant run our nation, the Constitution is null and void as the Supreme Court itself has sided with the intolerant against the reasonable. Churches are reasonable and not holding services, while gambling, abortions, weed and liqueur sales go on unimpeded. That is what passes for reasonable by the US Supreme Court today. The Constitution’s First Amendment is superfluous. The reasonable, like John Roberts, go along, I suppose because to follow the US Constitution, as he pledged an oath to do… would be unreasonable. It’s past time to get rid of the reasonable men like Roberts, Grahm and Barr, and put in more unreasonable people, like Pete Olson, Ted Cruz, and Louie Gomert to push the Overton Window back to the sane.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Burning Cities

Posted on July 24, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, when a place is a shambles, it is always the fault of the leaders, never that of the powerless. This should be obvious to everyone, except it would seem, progressives, socialists and communists, you know… democrats. Why do I say this? Because every city that is democrat run today is not only a shambles but literally on fire. I mean, could someone do a worse job? Is it even possible? Yet I suspect democrats think they have a lock on the next election. The only way they can think this, is because they will blame the ruination of their cities on the powerless, and those trying to stop the riots and looting. I wonder though… despite the monopoly control of the media that calls itself unbiased, their wielding violent mobs in the streets and of social media, if people maybe waking up.

You have to consider how the defund the police theme is resonating with the average Sara and Joe. With people in progressive cities in constant fear for their lives, their children and their businesses as well as jobs, because of the violent mobs, riots and out of control crime… defunding the police seems a bit counterproductive to me, and I am sure Joe and Sara would agree as well. Even as democrats abet, cover for and manipulate the mobs, into destroying whatever serves the progressive faction’s interests, silencing their critics by intimidation and outright violence, they blame the victim for thought crimes. You just don’t get more progressive than that. With that as the backdrop, how many people do you suppose will stay silent in public, but speak loudly at the polls?

Abetting a mob to destroy that which you find the least offensive, with impunity, is empowering. Just point at something that offends and a mob shows up the next day. Clad in black, their identities hidden by masks, armed with helmets, shields, weapons, paint and tackle they are ready willing and able, to rip down a statue paid for by freed slaves to commemorate their freedom, in the name of racism. Not that ironic if you think about it. Racists tearing down a memorial to the abolishment of race based slavery. Makes perfect sense. Such is the heady life of a progressive today. Sleep till noon, get dressed in your ANTIFA or BLM uniform, and be a good little soldier, serving the dark master, purchasing a little hole in Hades to spend eternity. The retirement may not be great… but the chaos sure is fun.

You name the city that is run by progressives and it is a flaming catastrophe today. Crime up, downtowns destroyed, good people fleeing, anarchic autonomous zones, nightly riots, graffiti sprayed everywhere, businesses looted, democrat cities are right out of a dystopic picture. Seattle Washington today is not much different than NY was portrayed in Escape from New York. With this as the backdrop one would think the people would revolt at it. The progressive faction’s ace, or so they believe, is their monopoly control of the narrative. Anyone who deviates from it is attacked, like Tucker Carlson, who as I write this, is being targeted with stochastic terrorism, but no one else will call it that, they don’t want to be the next target. What it boils down to is… who will get the blame?

Democrats have been magnificent at blaming others for the problems they created. Biden has been in the top echelons of government for fifty years, yet claims he is going to fix the problems he created while in office? Who believes that? The mayor of Detroit is going to fix the flaming disaster movie that city is now? By abetting more chaos? How is Lori Lightfoot going to repair her city? By abetting more riots? The reason these cities are living disasters, rife with crime, where children are not safe in their own homes, and defunding the police is an option, is that they have been run by people who’s power comes from chaos, poverty, racism and suffering. Get rid of them… and the chaos, poverty, racism and suffering will stop. Because then… no one in power will have an interest in creating them anymore.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Socialism’s Raison De Etre

Posted on July 22, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, no nation or people has done more to discredit socialism, than China and the CCP. The Communist Party exists, supposedly, to usher in the socialist revolution, eliminating all private capital, money, evolving humanity away from individualist to the Socialist Man, and creating a worker’s paradise. Instead, whenever socialism was the economic model, tens of millions died of famine and political repression, useless products were produced, while important products were not. Every socialist experiment ushered in environmental catastrophe after disaster. Like the death of all the honeybees in parts of China and toxic lake. Only the adoption of free market capitalism, of a sort, saved the Chinese economy. Yet the CCP remains? Showing it is not about communism… but power.

The “Raison De Etre” of socialism, the mission statement if you will… is to make a system where everyone is equal. Along the lines of Thomas Moore’s Utopia. Where there are no rich, no poor, no rulers and no ruled. No hierarchy, no racism, a place where work is not alienating because people evolve to a higher state of being. Where we no longer are self interested but group interested. Like an ant, if we are marching along and there is a gully, we happily throw our bodies into it, to level the ground for the rest. Being trampled to death to such a person would be the ultimate ecstasy. That person, or rather, not person, but something else, something less, would revel in the group’s pleasure at walking over even ground, rather than it’s own suffering at being crushed to death. Such is utopia.

If we accept the mission statement of socialism then, we must examine the results of past experiments in socialism, against these goals. Because if the stated goals are really the goals, any experiment should bring humanity closer to that goal, not further away from it. When we examine the results, every socialist revolution has not only fallen short of the stated raison de etre, but has moved humanity in many respects, in exactly the opposite direction. Pol Pot, it could be argued, made the most progress towards evolving people from individuals to ants, by slaughtering most of the people in Cambodia, with bullets, until he ran out… then by bread bag and club. The argument is that initially there needs to be a strongman to force socialism on the unwilling elements. That was Pol Pot’s role.

Don’t the results of every socialist experiment suggest their goals are misstated, else the means to those goals used in the past, are counter productive. Yet we see that today’s socialist, of every bent, from Maoist, Progressive, national socialist, Marxist and democratic socialist, all continue to use the same tactics as in the past? Tactics that resulted in the opposite of what they claimed to want. A people, who are not, nor do they need to be ruled, where everyone is equal, not where some are more equal than others, where everything is owned in common, not where a despot owns everything and everyone. If socialists then want the goals, they are going about it the wrong way, unless their stated goals are mere subterfuge. That there is something else they want. By looking at the results we should glean what it is.

I think we can see in the Chinese Communist Party, what they want… absolute power. The CCP proves it every day in everything they do. Who can argue China today under the CCP is anything like the mission statement of Communism. It is the polar opposite, and continues to go further away, faster and faster. A fool can see that utopia is not the goal. When they saw that the socialist economic model was a failure they adopted a capitalist one. Showing they cared nothing for the mission statement… only the power to implement it. Power, for it’s own sake is the true raison de etre of socialism, it’s not some pie in the sky utopia, that is made clear by the CCP…. it is unlimited power to do whatever they want to us. Like involuntarily harvesting organs from the politically disfavored. You know…the less equal.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Iconoclasm

Posted on July 19, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, even as democrats destroy America’s icons, they are studious about protecting theirs. On the one hand they say that icons are irrelevant, and to protect them is patriarchal, while on the other, skidding a tire on BLM or rainbow painted on the street… is a hate crime. How do we rectify these two incompatible stances? A statue takes months to produce, uses expensive metals and requires deeply skilled craftsmen to bring it to fruition. While a painted street takes only a few hours, and unskilled people can easily pull it off. So, the value and skill required of the thing desecrated, is not relevant to whether it should be protected. Moreover, a statue or monument signifies a singular event in our cultural and national history, while a painted street signifies a revulsion of them.

What we have then, is a major political party, that produces icons dedicated to the overthrow of liberty, free enterprise, limited government, objectivism and individualism… and that iconography is sacrosanct. While the iconography that represents the advances of Western civilization, like the elimination of slavery, mapping of the world, industrial revolution, medical discoveries, technology and inventions, all are subject to demolition by the democrat party. Placing the democrat party at odds with the American way. Making democrats unpatriotic but worse, traitors to the system that has given them not only the free time to engage in absurdity writ large, but the morality that they base their outrage on! A morality that they themselves are determined to destroy.

One thing we know happens when there is revolution… famine, disease and despotism always follow it. History is unambiguous on this fact. It is the rare revolution that leads to a better situation, and those are often countered quickly by the ousted elite. Dion is a perfect example of this. Of the thousands of revolutions across the centuries, only the Roman overthrow of Tarquinious Superbus and the American resulted in a better situation. Can anyone argue that Mao’s revolution improved the lot of the Chinese people? There are over sixty two million dead of famine, oppression and state crimes, who might say it was a bad thing. Revolutions destroy the economic stock of a nation, it puts the most violent revolutionary in power… both of which create the conditions for famine, despotism and disease.

Human suffering is only bad for those who suffer, and those of us with empathy, but it is a benefit to those who’s political power is derived from it. Constantly promising to solve the problems they created… if only they are given a little more power and money. Every failure of the administrative state and the faction that runs it is only proof they need more money and more power to solve the problems they created. Obviously, I am not a progressive and don’t argue as a progressive does. I am not saying that the administrative state invented famine, slavery, disease or despotism, as progressives say of Capitalism, they predate the administrative state as well as capitalism. What I am saying, is that the policies that the progressive faction pushes… lead inevitably to famine, disease and despotism.

A philosophical retreat from enlightenment modern principles to pre-Enlightenment post modernist principles is what the democrat party is after. Michele Obama herself told us what they had planned. We will have to make sacrifices, change our traditions, rewrite history and the conversation itself. You cannot rewrite history if there are memorials telling it, changing our traditions requires new iconography, the conversation is dominated by the progressive faction today, and we are being forced to submit to lock downs, masks and one sided propaganda… to make sacrifices, not the elite, just us. That is why progressive iconography is sacrosanct while US iconography must go. By reciprocal attribution, if iconography is fair game… it is fair game, all the way around. Else it isn’t.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Philosophies, The Supremacist, The Self Serving and The Human Hearted

Posted on July 17, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, one way you can tell if a philosophy is human hearted or not… is to observe if the adherents apply it to themselves and others, just themselves, or just others. A philosophy that is only applied to oneself is most probably self serving, one that is applied only to others is certainly arrogant and supremacist, while a philosophy that is applied to everyone equally can be called human hearted. Self centered people create special carve outs for themselves and their friends that are not applied to others. Supremacists have philosophies that apply to others but not themselves or their friends. People who are human hearted have philosophies that they apply to others as well as themselves. They hold themselves to the same or a higher standard than others, while those who are not human hearted, don’t.

Longtime readers of my articles know what Human Heartedness is, but I will give a brief summary for new readers. The term is a translation of Confucius’ ancient Chinese term for “Jen.” It has been translated into, Ritual and Righteousness, Flowers and Music, Benevolence, etc… It was Dr. Bodde and E. R. Hughes who came up with “human hearted” as, what I think, is the best translation. A person who is human hearted reciprocates good deeds, loves the good, hates the evil, is family oriented, civilized, polite, is careful to “rectify terms” (all parties understand the definitions of the words you use in communication), is not envious, follows the Golden Rule, and most of all… leads by example. Human heartedness is a term that incorporates a slew of ideas about what it is to be a good person.

Philosophies that apply only to the philosopher are always self serving. Thrasymachus’ philosophy can be said to be of this type. In it, he holds that Justice is a tool of the powerful to manipulate the weak. It should seem obvious that anyone who makes this argument, identifies with the powerful unjust… not the weak who are taken advantage of, in his philosophy. Anyone, group or religion that hold’s itself to a lower standard than others is also of this kind. The group, person or “enlightened,” are entitled to harm those outside the group as they wish, especially in the forwarding of the group’s, religion or person’s interests are concerned. In the singular they are psychopaths, in the plural they are oligarchs. In both cases they are self serving.

Philosophies that apply only to others are supremacist. The ideas of the supremacist never apply to him or her, only to those cut from inferior cloth. Ask most teachers about parents, they will tell you just how worthless most parents are, little better than troglodytes. Not at all a supremacist attitude. If progressives consider others their equals, why must the rest of us be told what to think? What type of person thinks others cannot be trusted to think for themselves? Someone who considers themselves superior… else common humility wouldn’t allow such hubris. What is more insidious, is that those who espouse philosophies that apply to others but not themselves, don’t realize their very argument negates it’s validity. Reciprocal attribution, everyone is entitled to consider a supremacist… inferior.

Philosophies that apply to everyone are far more likely to be human hearted. They are not self serving nor are they supremacist, because they apply to everyone. Clearly, people who are envious, self serving, arrogant and supremacist are not human hearted. Moreover, isn’t it obvious that allowing people to have power who are not human hearted, are self serving and/or supremacists, is a bad idea? How can someone with those negative character traits represent us fairly, justly or compassionately… when they embody none of those characteristics? It becomes our duty then, to observe the philosophies of those who seek power over us, and deny it to those who are not human hearted. To do anything less is to sell our children to abusers for a bit of convenience. Which is clearly not human hearted.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

The Consequences of Silence

Posted on July 15, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, we are expected to believe the most insane things today, else there are consequences. A few years ago if you claimed someone beat themselves to death, you would be laughed out of the room, yet today we are told it is common, for doctors in their 40’s who are about to testify against the Clintons. Or that people self strangulate often, especially when they have inside information about the elite’s crimes against children. From all white people are racists and thus privileged, to police are the biggest threat to black men, we have to mouth things we know to be lies, else face the anger of a mob. A mob wielded by psychopaths intent on destroying the US, limited government, individualism, the family, capitalism, objectivism and the nation state model for a globalist one… by their own words.

The entire thrust of Alexander Solzhenitsyn’s book, The gulag Archipelago, was that lies lead to gulags. That thousand page tome is a list of atrocities inflicted upon human beings for the crime of having been denounced. A woman who wasn’t angry that another had escaped the Gulag, was forced to stand in the cold, until she died of exposure. The prisoners would take delight in torturing party stalwarts, who believed their incarceration was just a big mistake, and that soon they would be back in Stalin’s good graces. Because they were too stupid to realize they were captured by a lie. Atrocity piled upon crimes against humanity, is what always has and always will come, of going along with a lie. Those that demand we agree are psychopaths… would you demand someone else believe a lie for your benefit?

Believing in lies and absurdities is a sub-optimal strategy to get ahead. The guy who believes he can fly and jumps off a cliff to prove the point has a short life. The girl who thinks she is as tough as a man, because all the movies show the woman beating up the hoodlums, while her man quivers terrified in the background, is subject to violent correction on the mean streets of any city. The coward who holds that if only the mob is appeased, they will go away, will visit catastrophe on his or her nation. The student who thinks gender studies will get her a great job will spend their life hungry, angry and confused. Never is it the case that believing a lie gives someone an advantage. Indeed believing that which is not true cripples that person with a huge disadvantage. It’s how confidence men work.

Pretending to believe a crazy person’s fantasies only encourages them to have ever greater and more insane fantasies. It is one thing to encourage a child of four to play fantasy games, but quite another thing, to encourage a 60 year old wielding out-sized political power, to engage in fantasy play… at the expense of humanity. If someone has not the brains to understand reality by the time they are 50 they never will. Allowing them to engage in absurdity puts us all at a disadvantage. The crazy notions will increase, it hampers every one’s ability to get ahead, and the nation’s to function… but worst of all, such things lead through censorship, protecting the lies… all the way to Gulags. How many of us know this to be true yet stay silent? Our silence abets their malfeasance.

Going along with lies from people intent on our impoverishment, enslavement and diminishing us to sub human, to get along… is stupid. Maybe it’s easier today to stay silent when a progressive angrily declars an absurdity is not only truth but no one is allowed to debate. Like all right action though, the hard action today, saves a much harder decision later. Like a small fire in your house. Ignore it, and it will grow, until it burns the house down. Standing on the street, it is obvious the small problem should have been dealt with, but at the time it seemed easier not to. Our silence, enforced by fear of the mob, only makes them more powerful, crazier and thus, far more dangerous. In a democratic republic, our only power is our voice… we live in insane times because we don’t use it, by calling out absurdity.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Separate but not Equal

Posted on July 12, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, nothing is more terrifying to an oppressor, than a uniting people. A smart tyrant or oligarchy then will do everything in their power to keep us separate. Individualism is wholly inadequate for this purpose, since it has the tendency to unite us by showing us our commonalities, instead of our differences. Oppressors must highlight our differences. We individuals are diverse yet we unite by nature. Our irrelevant qualities can be used to differentiate us though, then jealousy and envy can be applied to create enmity, between the “factions” progressives created from thin air. It becomes impossible to sell out a people if we are aware, but easy if we are disunited, our attention diverted and angry at a straw man. That is how you solve the fears of tyrants and would be oppressors.

The election of Trump was in part a reaction to our backstabbing aristocracy. Almost all of our societal problems are due to our leaders overseeing the intentional managed decline of the US. They despise us and our heritage and have made it clear by their actions. Selling us out to the CCP for a profit is icing on the cake they get to eat too. Like Lincoln said, “You can fool some of the people…” Those who are not fooled, or are realizing we are the mark in a great confidence game, are growing in number and in anger. The tide of our resentment at those who have violated their oath to our Constitution and our great promise itself, is why Trump won, despite hoaxes reported as truth against him, literally a billion dollars spent against him and his campaign spied on by the FBI and CIA for Hillary and Obama.

The insane actions of the democrats today are their panicked attempts to separate us along whatever lines they can… race, politics, religion, state, county, mask wearer, and soon, by RFID. A mere Twelve years ago, the United States was so inclusive and comfortable with race, that Barak Hussein Obama was elected President. In eight years he destroyed race relations, swelled the rolls on welfare and food stamps, obliterated public education with Common Core, handed our existential enemies a path to nuclear arms and the billions they would need to get there, armed Mexican drug cartels and blamed American gun shops for it, exploited his power to abuse political enemies via the IRS, bugged reporters computers and spied on the Trump campaign worse than Nixon. All designed to separate us.

Yet those same policies are focusing us on their malfeasance, corruption and psychopathy. The open lawlessness democrats today are abetting, justifying and indeed leading is to further separate us. They separate us into groups then set us against each other. Pitting Blacks against Whites, rich against poor, landed versus tenant, new class against working class, immigrant versus citizen, the list is endless. Moreover, progressives have the audacity to stratify us by group in a hierarchy of oppressed and oppressor. The democrats prove Aristotle correct, when he said in Nichomachian Ethics, Democracy is the perversion of polity. In that polity is a general agreement while democracy is the tyranny of the majority… polity then makes us friends while democracy makes us enemies. Like modern democrats.

Separating us is what the groupism of post modernism is all about. To empower the aristocracy at our expense. The more we fall for the scam the more power we cede to the elite. People who, by their actions have shown they will sell us and our children out, for a good view of a lake. Black Americans had to be made angry because Trump had improved their situation too much. They were on the verge of waking up to the fact democrats need them poor and angry. Becoming rich and happy will not do at all. So BLM arose at the first “unarmed” shooting the elite could exploit to create anger. The result is bitterness between the races, where a mere twelve years ago… Truly psychopathic but effective. Especially if we keep falling for it. Our only enemies are the progressive elite trying to separate us.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

How To Attack Freedom

Posted on July 10, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, progressives cannot attack freedom directly, so instead they attack it’s related ideas, capitalism, individualism and objectivity. At this point socialism cannot be argued on it’s merits, they not only don’t exist, they have been proven conclusively not to. That was the singular lesson of the Twentieth Century. That socialism always fails, and fails spectacularly, no matter what the incarnation. From the French Revolution, starting the roll of failures, through Lenin’s reign of terror. Hitler changed the paradigm slightly and we all know how the Thousand Year Reich turned out. That glittering lie has too strong a draw for arrogant and foolish supremacists. So to convince enough people to go along, they claim there can be no objective truth, that individualism is fiction… which leads to open absurdity.

To start on the road to absurdity they first make the spurious rationalization that the Enlightenment was a lie. Ignoring the pragmatic outcome, science, the industrial revolution, outlawing slavery, medicine, and technology, and the basis for their own morality… they argue the intellectuals of the Enlightenment were greedy, racist slave owners, and therefore were bad people. Concluding we need to turn away from objective truths and individualism to subjectivity and groupism. What makes that argument, away from objectivity and individuality to subjectivity and groupism is that the argument itself negates the arguer’s ability to make it! If a person is only an automaton in service to the group, then that person, by their own admission, is incapable of making that argument. Only an individual could, but wouldn’t.

Basing their arguments on absurdity they go on to justify atrocities. Real Marxism has never been tried is as comfortable to a progressive as an old shoe. Ignoring the outcomes of countless experiments in socialism. That argument always boils down to, “Had I been the dictator, it would have turned out to be utopia. They just had the wrong leaders…” Some even citing South Africa and Nelson Mandela’s ANC. A Marxist political party that over saw the installation of a socialist Black government with little discrimination against Whites. Unlike Rwanda’s genocide and expulsion of Whites leading to famine, hyper inflation and economic collapse. The problem with having the right dictator is that everyone dies. Mandela is now dead and the genocide and expulsion has begun in earnest in South Africa.

The normalcy bias makes many, especially in the progressive voting base, think that revolution could happen and we would have more wealth, less poverty, violence and hunger. In the face of all the historical evidence to the contrary. They cannot imagine the people they have put their faith in, would usher in a Maoist style Great Leap Forward, starving millions. The possibility of a War of conquest and subjection based on hate for a certain race is unthinkable… especially when they are of that race! These things are unimaginable to the average progressive. Their normalcy bias keeps them in the absurd zone, thinking that socialism could work, this time. They honestly believe that the economic collapse of Venezuela is due to Western Imperialism, instead of Chavez and Maduro’s ruinous economic policies.

Enabled by people captured by their ideology, who gladly gobble down any absurdity their leaders pull from the derriere, the progressive faction’s leaders are empowered to attack freedom, albeit indirectly. Using the normalcy bias, greed and envy as tactics to manipulate their followers, also known as Marks, mob violence to suppress speech and thus thought, and teaching their toxic philosophy to our children, at our expense, they will laugh all the way to Hell itself. Those of us who are not mesmerized by the glittering lies must act, speak and vote. It is up to us, the adults in the room, to point out the glittering lies, the absurdities and then explain how those absurdities lead to atrocities, in the past, today and in the future. Act like an adult… else we and our children will have to experience atrocity first hand.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

A Page From Stalin’s Playbook

Posted on July 8, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, the democrats are taking a play directly from Stalin’s playbook. During WWII, Stalin called STAVKA into his office. Upon entering they noticed Stalin was holding a chicken. Stalin looked at STAVKA and said, “I’ll show you how to rule the people…” With that, he clutched the chicken, and started pulling handfuls of feathers from it. The chicken screamed in pain and terror as Stalin ripped handfuls of feathers from it’s body. Suddenly Stalin stopped… and started calming it. He pulled some grain from his pocket and fed the chicken. Once it had calmed he put it on the ground. It clutched Stalin’s leg and would not leave him. Smiling Stalin looked up at the members of STAVKA and said, “That is how you rule the people.” The democrats are essentially doing that to us.

What else is the Kung Flu but a weapon of terror? From it’s inception in a laboratory in Wuhan and subsequent escape by accident, or intent, the news has been geared to create as much fear as possible. I have had friends call me in a literal panic over it. When the reality of it wasn’t sufficiently scary, democrat governors forced nursing homes to take in covid 19 patients, to seed it in the most vulnerable community. That little psychotic action worked perfectly. The psycho killers infected tens of thousands of old people, who then did their duty and died horribly, intubated, denied Hydroxychloroquin and even the comfort of family to love and advocate for them. Which of course, vastly inflated the numbers of infected, hospitalized and most importantly for it’s fear factor… the death count.

Pain is the point… communal psychic pain, emanating from our collective unconscious. The open hypocrisy of democrats is covered up by the media, that calls itself unbiased, when they ridiculed and attacked actually peaceful protesters, offended by the extra constitutional actions of democrat governors and the administrative state. Justifying absurdities like seeding nursing homes with Wuhan flu patients while forcing schools to close, ordering the shuttering of small businesses but allowing corporate stores to remain open, and denying Christians church and Jews Synagogue while keeping the abortion clinics open. These things are designed to hurt us by damaging our interests, economic, political, filial and national. Create civilizational suffering… to put us in the right frame of mind.

The masks, you know, the ones that were not effective, before they were effective, are simply a sign of submission… and a push for others to obey as well. The actual science shows that you need an N95 medical grade mask to protect from viruses. That is the science, but since science has become the handmaid of the progressive faction, making facts irrelevant, to the “science.” Face masks are a form of virtue signaling. Wearing one tells others, “I am afraid and I obey, you should too, submit, capitulate and accept.” Compliance is a virtue, unless it is compliance to norms, customs and common sense. Only compliance to arbitrary rule is now a virtue, thinking for yourself is now a vice. A vice the elite can nary allow, or accept anymore… with the threat of Covid 19 and all.

Shutting down small businesses, then paying them, is no different than ripping feathers from a chicken, then feeding it a bit of corn to calm it, both actions make an entity terrified, desperate, clingy and mindlessly compliant… before you slaughter it for supper. From this we see that democrats have learned their lesson from one of their heroes, Uncle Joe Stalin very well. Kudos to them for their grasp of his strategies, supremacism to believe themselves justified, heartlessness to carry it out, and psychopathic arrogance to think no one would notice. Many might see and be rousted from slumber, only to find that the impending vote fraud may, or may not, divert a coming tsunami of angry votes against the modern Stalins, as well as their minions in the media, corporations and culture.

Sincerely,

Wealthy Nation Or Wealthy Rulers… You Can’t Have Both

Posted on July 5, 2020 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, if a government wants the nation to be wealthy, they must create the circumstances where the people become rich, since the nation is an extension of the people. This is a very radical concept for many. The modern paradigm is to impoverish the people as best you can, while enriching a few, so while the nation itself maybe so poor it cannot afford good roads, the elite that rule it are so rich they couldn’t care less, because they fly over them in private helicopters, to their walled, gated and guarded estates. Take the US example, since at least the 1970’s, the elite have been hollowing out the currency, exporting jobs, importing workers, regulating whole industries out of existence, and raising taxes. All of which have a deleterious effect on the demand for labor and thus wages.

While these policies have driven down the wages of the American worker and lowered our life outcomes, it has vastly enhanced the life outcomes of the politically favored. As the elite do everything in their power to drive down demand for labor, in the US, they have handed out billions perhaps trillions in crony capitalism. Making a few people very wealthy, but not contributing a thing to GDP, or hiring a single long term worker. Anyone remember Solyndra? Driving down demand while importing people to compete for fewer jobs… doesn’t seem to me to be a path to rising wages and societal wealth. Why do you suppose the progressive faction is so intent on regulating away industries, taxing firms to bankruptcy, importing workers and exporting jobs? Maybe because the poor are their constituents?

To generate real societal wealth any nation must do several radical things. Things that the Marxist/progressive element will fight tooth and nail, because they will result in vast societal wealth, utterly discrediting their utopia for a much better reality. Education is of the utmost importance. Children should be taught not only the three R’s, science and history, but how to write a letter to get a business loan, profit loss statements, industrial arts, home economics, philosophy, economics, and how to negotiate. Teach every kid to be a handy philosopher entrepreneur. Cut regulations to the bone, create positive standards or adopt the best from overseas, cut taxes especially payroll taxes, protect intellectual property, while creating and maintaining limited government enforced by a Fourth Branch.

Imagine a nation, or better yet, a whole planet of nations where the vast untapped potential of humanity is released by thoughtful standards, protection of copyrights and patents, and a wealthy, entrepreneurial and free populace, looking to have our lives enhanced by the next great innovation. Give kids a wide variety of possibilities of career choices, but most importantly, make those choices possible. Where everyone has a stake in society, and knows it, society will flourish. A nation of innovative small businesses can only lead to an improving standard of living. Children would go to a vouchered school competing for them, have great potential life outcomes. The scourge of drugs would be erased, because most drug use is due to our toxic culture, progressively inculcating hopelessness and alienation.

To go from our present utopia to a truly wonderful reality is our choice. Not the choice of the elite, because they selected national poverty and personal wealth. We must constantly write letters to our legislators, governors, prime ministers and presidents. We can no longer sit idly by while our jobs are exported and workers imported to compete with our kids. In what world does it make sense to carry 100 grand of student loan unforgivable government debt, for a job that is taken by a foreigner with an H1B visa? Cutting a check to the government every month, out of a waitress pay, doesn’t build societal wealth as quickly as cutting it out of 70 grand a year, writing code. Then again, if the faction in power’s constituency are the hopeless and poor… it is crucial there be plenty of them.

Sincerely,

John Pepin
