Dear Friends,
It seems to me, elitists are terrible people. By terrible people, I mean they look down on the rest of us, have no morals, and thus place no limits on their actions. Who am I calling elitists? That would be anyone that believes he or she should rule the world with unlimited power. This includes but is not limited to Nazis, Marxists, communists, socialists, progressives, and globalists. These people all have central planning as a core philosophy. To believe in central planning one has to look down on the rest of humanity as incapable of minding for ourselves. Central planners can’t have morals because the very act of central planning and especially implementation requires evil be visited on others. There can be no better proof of a lack of morals than forcing others to one’s will. Unlimited action then is presumed.
In my worldview, a good person is someone who minds their business, helps when asked, and holds themselves to a higher standard then he or she holds the rest of mankind. Such a person isn’t a burden to humanity but a benefit. A terrible person on the other hand is the opposite. He or she is a burden on humanity in a myriad of ways. Their entitlement attitude is destructive of their own success. Terrible people always consider themselves victims even as they are handing out lashes to an innocent. No elitist person holds him or herself to a higher standard than others. That would be absurd, since elitists see themselves as smarter, wiser, and are better than the rest of us… so why would they? Moreover, elitists must lie to get power, because no one would give them unlimited power otherwise.
Lying and censoring are tools of elitism. They are also the tools of power. Both are the acts of terrible people. Liars trade on trust to manipulate. When the trust they are trading on is public trust of institutions, that trust lost is destructive of entire civilizations. Moreover, someone who would risk civilizational destruction for personal profit is the very acme of a terrible person. The elitist then is a person who must lie to gain power, censor others to hold it, and manipulate others as does a common confidence man, but with much higher stakes. Because otherwise common people wouldn’t stand for the extractive economy that all elitist centrally planned economies are. This brings us to another reason elitist central planners are terrible people, they are thieves under color of law.
The history of elitism is unequivocal, central planning delivers poverty to the people, and opulence to the central planners. The elite are the extractors. As the nation is sucked dry the people eventually wake up to the fact they live under an extractive economy instead of a productive one. At that point the people go from being the extracted from, to extraction avoiders. Examples are numerous of what happens after. People avoid the mechanisms of central planning extraction. Large scale tax avoidance, currency avoidance, and an underground economy is born. This happened in Greece, Argentina, and Weimar Germany. Given the epic history of central planning disasters, only a terrible person would to force it on a nation let alone the world.
To a terrible person their own lack of success is proof the system needs to be overthrown so they can rule over the ashes. That’s been the paradigm in all Marxist revolutions. Half witted but evil and overly educated people are disillusioned so start a communist revolution. Pretending to be populists so they can implement elitism. Rivers of blood have flowed from the hands of university educated monsters like Abemael Guzman the founder of the Shining Path, Pol Pot of the killing fields, and Lenin who exterminated the Kulaks. Modern elitists live by extraction, lies, and manipulation. You can tell this is the case when wrongthink and wrongspeak are punished more severely than the systematic rape of little girls. That is why I say, elitists are terrible people… they really are.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
Limericks
Dear Friends,
Once there lived a man called Voltaire,
Deep into philosophy he would stare,
He said with a fright,
And some insight,
Absurdity leads to atrocity so take care.
Thune is an unimpressive politician,
Threading a needle with intuition,
He said herding cats,
I’ll empower democrats,
Making profligate spending an institution.
The unreasonable can’t be reasoned with,
Holding grudges, full of wrath and pith,
Chanting a refrain,
Inflicting general pain,
And running as fast as they can right off a cliff.
You will do and think in allowable ways,
Following woke the rest of your days,
Though it’s absurd,
Like a clean turd,
It’s inculcated by the system of Edward Bernays.
There once was an absurdist ______,
Though his ideas smelled of a ______,
A man of the age,
A woman enraged,
Who put the horse before the ______.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
