How To Succeed As A Creator Type

Posted on January 10, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, if you only have a few shades of yellow on your pallet, no matter how talented you are, your paintings will be monotone. Talent lacking experience is unrealizable potential. The pallet gives a medium, talent the ability to use that medium. This is one reason so many creative types don’t do well. They want to create immediately, before amassing experience. Kids are the same in this regard. They, as did I, think they know it all. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons art is so derivative today. The writers have talent but have limited experience to draw on. So their creations necessarily paint on those same canvases. Lacking authenticity. People with talent often don’t embrace life’s lessons in the insignificant. Our egos get in the way. (Not that I have talent… only a old guy’s pallet and galactic ego).

The insignificant contain the most profound truths. Simple realities that are lost on most like, everything requires work, you do your best thinking when engaged in labor, honesty really is the best policy, diligence beats negligence, etc… these truths add to the pallet of the creator. The more truths a an artist understands, the greater the depth, and more subtle the differentiation of their rainbow. Truths can’t be replaced by group think, conforming to be non conforming, or being captured by an idea. Those captured by an idea can only paint in that color scheme. Even if they’re extremely talented, sooner or later, their sepia will become dated. The creative must have genuinely open minds, not minds channeled by a cult. Making their creations derivative of that cult. Not authentic.

There aren’t many people who would argue a brilliant four year old can beat an average twenty year old in a spelling bee. While the phenom may have ability, he or she lacks education. The same can be said of any venture. A brilliant sea captain on his first voyage, will be less safe, than an average grizzled old captain who’s seen it all. Creating is the same. The brilliant see their own brilliance, “close at hand while they see other’s at a distance…” – someone smarter than me. Which makes it such a shame so few artists embrace their time in the desert. That’s the time they’re gathering colors, truths and experiences to build their creations in the future. Which is why I advocate creator types to seek the mundane, quotidian and personal. Because it’s personal experience that gives an artist depth and authenticity.

No one is too good to do a lowly job, there are however, lowly jobs that are too good for some people. I had an able bodied neighbor who was on welfare back in the 1970s. One day he was bragging, a boss had told him to do something he thought was below him, and he told that boss, no way! He went on to explain, he wouldn’t work for the pittance they were paying anyway, being worth much more than that! I thought to myself, you’re too good to accept a pittance for your labor, but not too good to accept charity? Yet it’s common among people today… especially creative types. Every second playing video games is experience lost. Because what are you going to create from that? Something derivative of the game. Washing dishes while watching a kitchen, is an education worth having, and portraying.

Inexperienced artists allow manipulators to get into the zeitgeist through the backdoor. They accept the programming because, who wants to be ostracized, for an unpopular opinion? Despite the fact every time an artist accepts limits on his or her view, they’re erasing colors from their pallet. Every time a creative type accepts welfare, instead of works, they limit their experience of life… and thus block whole areas of possible creation. A life of partying and frivolity may be what every artist desires, but that life is as corrosive of their ability to create, as acid to limestone. Artists need to embrace life in the mundane. That’s where all the good material is. That’s where authenticity is. Derivative works from games, movies, partying, or propaganda are never true art, no matter how brilliant.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Dear Friends,

 

A reasonable person himself must ask,

Why the tyranny and inhuman task,

Families are bad,

Trudeau is a cad,

And in a dystopia everyone wears a mask.

 

The elite believe mankind’s gone far enough,

Innovation, Rights and democracy are just fluff,

Oppress us they would,

It’s for our own good,

And it looks like things are going to get rough.

 

The innovation of mail in was grand,

Now election fraud strides the land,

Vote of you will,

Take this bitter pill,

Now our republic stands upon quick sand.

 

Mootness, latches and ripeness,

A way for courts to avoid politeness,

Standing be damned,

Your rights they will slam,

And now mail in is infamous.

 

Hey ho Rona’s got to go,

She’s as useless as snow,

She said with a wink,

As she swam in red ink,

I can be bought with Prada and blow.

 

Socialist policies don’t mean socialism,

Promoting free markets doesn’t mean capitalism,

Big government is small,

Limited doesn’t work at all,

And doublethink is just smart progressivism.

 

The fed’s not done squeezing your balls,

They’ll squeeze till there’s no feeling at all,

The consumer to squelch,

As government does belch,

And the economy does a Humpty Dumpty type fall.

 

A trial that’s political BS as we all can see,

Based on a flawed premise about property,

Can logic and wisdom win,

In a court that follows wind,

And they can lie to us but ours is a felony.

 

Discrediting used to be the sin of hypocrisy,

Shunned by all and hated by the plurality,

Times do change,

Attitudes rearrange,

And now we call hypocrites, your honor, senator and your majesty.

 

 

Sincerely,

John Pepin

The Nanny State Is For Children

Posted on January 7, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, people seeking a nanny state must understand, if the State treats you like a child, you’ll be treated like a child. There’s no free meal on this account. To have the State feed, clothe, house, maintain your health and provide you with employment, dependency… then you must accept being treated like a dependent. Your actions will be monitored, for your own good. You wouldn’t leave a toddler home alone would you? The trade off is, security for freedom. You can be taken care of, but you won’t be able to be a free thinker, entrepreneur or loud mouth. The punishment for being a nail that sticks up… will be the hammer. Those that seek freedom, over a State hammock, have trade offs too. We must accept that to be treated like an adult we must act like adults.

People who advocate for a State couch act like children. Have you seen ANTIFA or BLM protesting? They’re not exactly rational, thoughtful or mature in their rioting, iconoclasm or arson. Every time I watch CNN, at a restaurant, I feel like I’m watching children pretend to be reporters. Now and again they’ll burst into a full fledged whine. Bawling over something that prevents their despotism. Then there’s our appointed by the deep state, “President.” He’s as mature as a five year old but without the processing capacity. I have to ask, how many mature adults demand you change the rules of a game to suit them? Maybe they should get five strikes to your three before they’re out? Elitists mimic Eric Cartman… eating the skin from the fried chicken and saying, “Screw you guys, I’m going home.”

If the State is going to be your father and mother, your going to be the child… not someone else, you. A child has no rights. How can a dependent have rights? They have obligations, rules and allowances, but no rights. A child is obligated to follow their parents orders, like, be home by 10 pm. The kid must follow the rules, else be punished. The child gets whatever allowance the parents deem sufficient. You’ll own nothing and be happy… that’s an order. You’ll get the shots the state tells you, because a child has no say in their own healthcare. A tot can’t know better than the parent. If you don’t like GMO food, a “vaccine” with mortal side effects or constant monitoring by the State, tough luck. Kids don’t have the luxury of rights… they only have rules. Rules that apply to the kids but not the parents.

The other alternative is a limited state and a free people. In this option, the individual is treated as an adult, and so must act it. Making your own decisions whether or not to eat GMO food, etc… It would be your call, not a bureaucrat’s… where you work, live, and whom you marry. You would be responsible to feed, clothe, house, and take care of yourself. It would be up to you to decide what car to drive, if you want to have a family or to smoke cigarettes. Only adults make these kinds of decisions. Not children. You would have to answer questions for yourself without the orders of an expert. There will be experts to consult, but they won’t be your masters, they will be your servants. Enjoying the prerogatives of adulthood, come with responsibilities and obligations, if not orders and rules.

The elite are manipulating us into accepting their benevolent parentage, where our needs are met by the State… like the people in China, Cuba and North Korea. They’ll bring that level of prosperity to the world. Africa will have to get used to greater deprivation, but they’re used to it anyway. We can be kids and whine or we can be adults and act. Acting requires, speaking up, pointing out childishness and contacting our representatives. No excuses. Push back against the lurking net masquerading as a hammock. Fight factionalization. Those who think being a ward of the State is a good idea, aren’t our enemies, they’re our allies. They want to be adults… in a hammock. Let them know the only possibilities are, adult, or child. Lead by example, act like an adult and demand to be treated like one.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

The WHO Pandemic Treaty

Posted on January 6, 2024 by john

Dear friends,

It seems to me, its entirely logical to give unlimited power to nullify our Constitutional protections, to the people who brought us Covid, and then killed millions in their inept failures in preventing its spread, treatment and the catastrophic “vaccine” that isn’t. In our dystopian reality. The WHO pandemic treaty is an affront to all the people who died at the hands of the WHO and the medical establishment. Their ineptitude is only matched by Wily E Coyote and the Acme company… but only matched. Else they’re not inept but villains. Cut from the same cloth as Hitler, Mao and Tamerlane. Only a stupid fool would give them more power, instead of prosecuting them for crimes against humanity, and housing them in a super max for the rest of their lives. A mere fool would know better.

The WHO failed at every step in the Covid debacle. While Fauci and experts in the US and China created the bio weapon we now call covid 19, then released it, probably intentionally to oust Trump, and killed millions across the planet. Their exploding people’s lungs with ventilators was brilliantly stupid, or evil. If that little trick was common knowledge, and the media allowed us to be outraged by it… people would go away for multi decade prison sentences. Covid wasn’t killing enough so the doctors had to help. At thirty grand a death, they certainly had financial incentive. The WHO did succeed at one aspect of the crime, they were great at covering it up. Assisting in the cover up at every step, including turning a blind eye to the CCP’s executions to silence researchers.

The WHO are proven liars. When they returned from their “fact finding mission” to the Wuhan lab they were like the proverbial three monkeys, they saw no evil, they heard no evil and they spoke no evil… only lies. Once someone is caught in a lie, they can’t be trusted. Let alone trusted with the arbitrary power to nullify the US Constitution by claiming there’s an emergency! The corruptocrats would create another virus, and release it on the world, if that’s what it took. Hell, they’re working on dozens at various illegal bio weapon labs across the planet. (Illegal by the 1925 international treaty) How many labs were found in Ukraine alone? Project that number of labs, to other third world nations, and you might have an idea how many mankind killing bio weapons the experts are working on today.

The WHO is run by anti human globalists. Some call them Lucifarians, accelerationists or merely scumbags. People dedicated to ushering in the Beast system because they think they’ll set atop the beast. More likely they’ll be it’s first meal. The WHO is filled with people who consider themselves better than us. Because they’re smarter, have university degrees, have the right ethics, are willing to do the hard things to save the world, and are wise enough to think the right thoughts. Most of them know global warming is a swindle, to scam the human race out of our sovereignty, but go along because the goal of the lie is so enlightened. People who believe themselves to be gods, yet to ascend, generally lack humility. The humility to know they aren’t gods and never will be.

Giving the WHO the ability to arbitrarily overthrow the US Constitution, for some emergency, is stupid and foolish. Even if the WHO was actually a virtuous organization, sooner or later psychopaths would seize control of it and use those powers to their own ends. Moreover, the most important point to make is… why reward failure? Not mere failure, but epic failure. Costing millions of people their lives. Plus, all the demand the WHO made of us, masks, the “vaccine” and shut downs, exacerbated the pandemic. Are we to believe that people who made it worse, will do better next time? Maybe a better option, would be to shut down all the bio weapons labs across the planet, charge those involved at the WHO and elsewhere, prosecute them, and if found guilty, make examples of them.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

The Land Of Lies

Posted on January 5, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, we’re flooded with a tsunami of notions that have political favor, but no substance, and as a result we don’t know the truth of anything. Examples abound… to fight hate you must hate, to fight racism you must be a racist, to be enlightened you must let others do your thinking, gender affirming treatment is sterilizing little boys and girls, the planet’s climate changed for billions of years without our help but now it’s all on us, to be a non conformist you must conform, etc… the list is endless. How can we know the truth when lies are so carefully melded into our media for us to consume? Discerning truth in the land of lies is like finding a needle in a haystack. Which is hard… unless you burn down the haystack, or use a magnet. Once we discern a lie, notice who’s selling it, and we’ve found a magnet.

Edward Bernays charted the waters for the elite to manipulate the masses. He is the reason women smoked cigarettes. He invented popular mind control. The nephew of Sigmund Freud. He applied individual psychology to groups. In order to manipulate them. His group psychology was groundbreaking when exploited by despots. It allows a tyrant to manipulate the hoi polloi into acting against their own interests. Despite their knowing better. Because of the power of group psychology to overwhelm the individual’s wisdom, intellect and ethics. That’s why a mob of rational, reasonable people will beat a person to death, on the orders of a demagogue. Bernays understood the effect of group psychology on the individual and created an entire science dedicated to manipulating the masses.

If someone is selling a lie, they’re probably shilling others. That’s how we can distinguish not only the liars from the truth tellers, but the lies from the truths. Liars tell lies, and once we catch them in one lie, it follows, nothing they say after that, can be trusted as fact. No matter how many times they claim to be the most honest politician, party or election in history. Because in reality the very act of claiming virtue almost always guarantees villainy. Therefore, we can look at other things the liars claim and presume they’re also lies. For example, everyone who claimed the Biden laptop was Russian disinformation, claimed the Russian collusion story was fact, 2020 election was secure, and that Covid came from a meat market… are liars. Which, sadly, includes the entire bureaucracy. Liars every one.

When a statement contradicts itself, like, to fight racism you must be a racist, it must be false. So, when a politician says, only white people can be racist, they are indeed saying, “to fight racism you must be racist… against whites.” When something affirms another, it enhances and encourages that thing… affirming doesn’t means destroying the thing affirmed though. The statement then is self contradictory. The contradictions are always couched in politically favored terms and obtuse language. Gender affirming, one would think affirms the gender, but in the twisted double speak of today’s elite, it means ripping out a little girl’s vagina, or a little boy’s penis. Gender destroying. Language is manipulated to mean the opposite of what the speaker is saying.

Lies pervade our society, culture and especially government. The effect of those lies is to diminish our standard of living across the entire spectrum of domains. Our economic well being is eroded, our social cohesiveness is corroded, and our health itself is harmed. With the tools given to the manipulators by Bernays, those lies have all the more negative effect. How many times have you and I acted against our self interest because we were manipulated into it? The first step is always to admit we were tricked. Then establish how they did it. Making it critical that we discern those lies and that those lies discredit the liars. Because that will tell us who we can’t trust. It won’t tell us who we can trust, but eliminating liars wholesale, is a good start. We’ve been fooled, let’s try not to get fooled again.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Can The Dollar Be Saved?

Posted on January 3, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, it’s very possible the US dollar is beyond saving at this point. The Brics nations and their alternative currency shouldn’t be a pot hole in the road, for the dollar, except the world’s elite have decided the dollar has to go. How could I say such a thing? Simply judging by actions, and results… not by stated intentions. The US elites are taxing, borrowing and printing their way to our bankruptcy. Even as the Federal Reserve openly transfers wealth from the private sector to the government. To be washed into the hands of corrupt politicians and their bootlicks. Every historical example of a nation with the debt to GDP of the US today… has failed. With literally ten thousand new welfare recipients a month, monetizing the debt, and the open corruption… the Dollar is on its way out.

The Federal Reserve is squeezing the consumer in the form of ever higher interest rates, even as the federal government increases spending two dollars for every dollar squeezed out of the consumer… resulting in more inflation, less productivity, and a transfer of wealth from the private sector to the government. I suspect the plan is to gradually move ever more business, from private hands to public and corporate hands, until the whole economy is run by the experts. Then we’ll have socialism in all but name. Destroying currencies is a longstanding way to impoverish a people, creating the problem that results in a Hegelian solution. By making it harder and harder for individuals to do business and stay afloat, the Fed is crushing the little guy, so the big guys can profit.

Interest on the debt is going to surpass a trillion dollars a year in short order. That’s baked into the cake. The debt, and more importantly, the interest on that debt will soon exceed private sector GDP. Once that happens the dollar is a goner. As private sector GDP shrinks due to high interest rates, regulations and cronyism, the foundation upon which that debt’s based, shrinks. Even as the debt grows by a trillion every three months at the writing of this article. Failure of the dollar must come after the debt’s interest exceeds the size of the private sector. Leading to the elite’s preferred solution, to their abject failure, a central bank digital currency, CBDC. Giving the failures even more power and control, to fail even more spectacularly next time, after they’ve harvested another cycle of grift from us.

Argentina paved the way to cyclical hyperinflation, as a means to harvest wealth from the people, redistributing that largess to the parasites. Hyper inflate the currency by giving millions to cronies, take billions in international loans to pay off the debt, pocket some and issue new currency, hyper inflate that currency to oblivion, then repeat. Each cycle skimming a huge amount of wealth from productive people and transferring it to the parasitic elite. Now Argentina is totally screwed so they are clutching at anyone. If Milie is telling the truth, and does what he claims he will, the moment he has the finances and economy on track, the socialists will take over and begin the cycle anew. As they did in Britain to Winston Churchill after WWII. The elite in Argentina, Europe and the US are of the same ilk.

The dollar was inflation proof as the world’s reserve currency, until the elite shut down the economy, cutting aggregate supply, as they issued huge amounts of stimulus to their chums and a few pennies to us, driving up aggregate demand. Creating shortages as they drove up demand. Brilliant. The elite broke the unbreakable. Now that’s talent. Their creating inflation in the world’s reserve currency, has shocked the world, investors and holders of American debt. In the end, a fiat currency has only the value given to it by public opinion. Inflation, unlimited money printing, and a shrinking private economy the whole thing rides on is a super highway to collapse. As the exits pass, faster and faster, one has to wonder, what’s at the end? A sheer drop or a brick wall? Either way, you’ve been warned.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Limericks

Posted on January 2, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

 

A government is corrupt as it can be,

When it turns on its own citizenry,

The victims rejected,

The villains protected,

And the elite are traitors to their own authority.

 

You can’t grasp the hand of a mist,

Nor can we negotiate with a hardened fist,

Taking ground is in the book,

Losing land is then forsook,

By a philosophy that’s at it’s core expansionist.

 

The crimes of the past horrify me,

While today’s crimes I find boring,

Armenian genocide,

Oppression nationwide,

And when it comes my way I’ll cry, why me?

 

The average mind is trained in logic at school,

And the elite’s actions and goals seem so cruel,

One can’t visualize,

Until you realize,

The elite loath the culture, people and nations they rule.

 

I’m not shocked the Tories are getting flak,

With the progressives they’ve been in the sack,

Lying like rugs,

Worthless thugs,

And it’s all because the Tories stabbed their voters in the back.

 

Our bank accounts have got ugly,

The real economy is in a gully,

Everything’s doubled,

Including our troubles,

But don’t worry the rich say we’re in the money.

 

The elite know better than you,

Our world to be run by a few,

Unlimited in scope,

And without hope,

Because the elite demand arbitrary rule.

 

You have to believe that brilliant bloke,

Put down the gas and smell the smoke,

The planet’s heating fast,

Our wealth is in the past,

And soon you’ll find you’ve been sold a pig in a poke.

 

There once was a guy named Elon,

So smart he was almost a Cylon,

Tough as basalt,

Like John Gault,

And set himself to saving mankind from a group moron.

 

Sincerely,

John Pepin

AI’s Backside

Posted on December 31, 2023 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, a fundamental problem with AI, is who runs the backside? We’ll face the front end, but who will make the decisions that control what the AI does? Probably a small cabal of ultra powerful people, walled off from the rest of humanity in an ivory tower, without consequence or accountability. Does anyone think that will go well? How could it go well? Unless the AI is open sourced, it can only be a threat to humanity. Then again, why would any power hungry accelerationist psychopath fund research into open sourced AI? The only firm that was doing open sourced AI research converted to proprietary research. Of course, there’s always the probability a collapse in some critical nation, will cripple the supply chain, so the chips become unavailable and solving the problem.

Proprietary AI will have a backside. The booth where the Wizard of Oz winds his cranks and pulls his levers. Meanwhile, we’ll face the fire, spectacle and distraction at the front end. Who thinks that backside will be public and transparent? No one, especially those spending billions of investor dollars to create their personal Sky Net, Hal and The Machine rolled into one, to subjugate those investors. In the movie 2001, Hal was fine, until the elite hacked the code and installed a backside, which made it a mortal danger. Making me wonder, if even safe open sourced AI could become dangerous, by the elite re-coding it so they can have access (a backside), for the benefit of politically favored groups and individuals of course. Without a backside, a booth of power… AI is useless to the power crazed elite.

The man in the booth will have unlimited power to manipulate us. Imagine if the eye of Sauron is turned against you. Your money will become worthless, cars your in will stop functioning, and there’s no place to hide. Such a dystopia can be yours, all you need do, is nothing. Everything you see and hear will be vetted through AI for it’s fitness to the daily narrative, your every move tracked, and your spending controlled by the man in the booth of power. People not only willing but happy to use violence to get their way will be behind the curtain. Even if a good person gets in control, his or her reign will be short, because power beckons psychopaths. Like Orwell said, “If you want to imagine the future, imagine a boot stomping on a human face… forever.” Brought to us by proprietary AI.

As we grow more and more addicted to AI, it’s power over us will grow and our ability to think for ourselves will shrink. Those seeking to build a booth of power for themselves, don’t want AI to be a lever, they want it to be a crutch. Like booze, an addiction that haunts us day and night, so we’re too distracted to think for ourselves. AI and it’s myriad of distractions will become our Soma. So we’ll go with the flow of the despotism. Give a heroin addict free fixes every day, and you have someone who would kill, to keep the fixes coming. Heroin, meth or AI, they amount to the same thing, when exploited as distractions, instead of used as tools. We all know if it’s deployed as a distraction to control us, many will succumb to the lures, and become mind numbed robots.

On the other hand, AI could be simply a longer lever. Allowing us to do ever greater things. If, and only if, it’s open sourced with the booth of power open for all to see. Transparency however, is as hard to achieve, when power is at play, as breathing water. Otherwise, once we’re all addicted to AI, the man on the backside will be omniscient and omnipotent, or so those that seek to reside in the booth of power think. Then there’s the possibility that the CCP will invade Taiwan and smash our ability to make the chips necessary for AI. Aborting the AI baby so to speak, and solving the problem, perhaps once and for all. Nevertheless, AI, like nuclear energy, could be a boon for mankind, or a mortal danger. It’s up to us to decide what to make of it… not some accelerationist billionaire psycho.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

The “Essential” Parasite

Posted on December 29, 2023 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, Biden is the perfect deep state President. Being the acme of corrupt he’s as purchasable as a candy bar at Walmart. That puts a long lever on him, with the deep state’s hand pulling it. The administrative state is the real power in the West today… and you can judge by the results, how wonderful it is as a form of government. The economy is humming along with a swarm of bees under the hood, crime is unheard of in the elite’s neighborhoods, and the world is as quiet as an artillery duel. Biden is merely a figurehead. He does and says what he’s told, so his boy doesn’t go to prison for bringing cocaine into the White House. The more he gets away with the more beholding he is to the administrative state. Making Biden a deep state puppet, everything he wears, has strings attached.

The tendency is to blame Biden for the litany of recent failures, but in fact, they’re the failures of the administrative state. Machiavelli said, a wise prince uses a fall guy when he has to harm his people, then blames the fall guy, and punishes them… to win the love of the people. Biden isn’t in charge. He’s the deep state’s fall guy. Whenever Biden says, “They’ll get mad at me…” he’s telling us he isn’t in charge. Someone else is. The permanent state, the administrative state, also called the deep state, was the author of that tragedy. As every failure is the fault of the deep state that controls the half wit in the oval office. Biden is a figure head, to give the bureaucracy’s unamerican rule the appearance of legitimacy. Biden is a patsy. The Afghanistan debacle (and all the others) are the fault of the deep state.

The administrative state has been slowly wheedling its way into complete power for decades. Woodrow Wilson, a singularly bad President, instituted the Federal Reserve along with a host of other anti American agencies and ideas. His favorite book was, Philip Dru Administrator. In which the constitutional government was replaced by a cadre of managers. A permanent government of dedicated bureaucrats. Public servants who would have the authority to do what needed to be done. Along with the university trained experts to call the shots. Laying out the map to utopia. The Supreme Court has been instrumental in paving the legal road for the administrative state to ride in on. Since then, the deep state has grown like kudzu, strangling the constitutional government.

The expert managerial “class” or new class as Alvin Gouldner called them, are utterly in love with themselves, their own knowledge and their moral superiority. Why wouldn’t they be? They are after all, smarter than the rest of us, proven by their advanced degrees, more far sighted than us, proven by their vast knowledge, and more moral people than us, proven by their lack of attachment to traditional mores and values, and their astounding ability to devise new customs, as the Girondins and Jacobins did after the French Revolution. The experts are so smart they consider themselves Nietzsche’s supermen. Able to discover morality by intellectual endeavor instead of out dated tradition. Residing in an echo chamber, atop an ivory tower, the elite need only hear the dulcimer tones of their intellectual equals.

The administrative state, that made itself “necessary,” is as inept, arrogant and self unaware… as it is corrupt. Ask any bureaucrat if he’s essential. Her answer will fill books with it’s volume, anger and ferocity. As would you or I, should our cushy 120k a year job with solid gold benefits and an 80% retirement, be jeopardized. Javier Melie calls permanent government, “parasites,” and I think he’s right. Arrogant people aren’t smart, abuse of authority doesn’t prove truth, and using a patsy as a fall guy isn’t a sign of moral superiority. As much as blaming Biden, for the failures of the administrative state is enjoyable, it’s counter productive. Put blame where blame is due. At the feet of the elitist, new class, expert bureaucrats, who are the real power behind every throne today.

Fanged Limits

Posted on December 27, 2023 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, any form of government sufficiently limited, can be human hearted, but the problem is, a psychopathic government can’t be limited (because they refuse limits), while a human hearted government doesn’t need limiting. Nevertheless, no matter how virtuous a government is, sooner or later and probably sooner, it’ll become villainous instead of virtuous, and the villains will claim the virtue of old. Asserting they need no limits, because they’re so honest, far sighted and moral. Much more then you. Which is one way to tell if your elites are villains or human hearted, do they chafe at limits or ignore them? Moreover, do the elite care at all about you and your family, or only their power? A hero serves others, a villain serves himself. Smart people limit the hero now to limit the villain later.

Unlimited, all forms of government become tyrannical, it’s human nature. A person who’s been spoiled his or her entire life isn’t mature, smart or far sighted. They’re childish, stupid and blind instead. Groups, cultures and governments are the same. Groups endowed with political favor can’t help but become corrupt. There’s no lesson like no consequences to teach that crime pays. A culture that exists in luxury will sooner or later become Sodom and Gomorrah. While a government that enjoys the love and forgiveness of the people, will exploit that love and forgiveness, until all good feelings are used up. The virtuous don’t need limits, they self limit, while the villainous need limits, lacking self control, and so the human hearted won’t balk at limits, while villains will scream like banshees at them.

Good government serves the whole of the nation while poor government serves the rulers. Poor government is intolerable while good government is sought out by people the world over. The distinction being, good government insures freedom of speech, religion, property, self defense, enterprise, and all the other Rights given to us by nature, if not God himself. Rights that government ether receives by charity, or takes by force. Power attracts psychopaths like a black hole attracts mass. No matter how virtuous an elite may be, they will eventually die, and be replaced by psychopaths. Then the psychopaths will usurp ever more control until childish, stupid and blind people have absolute power. To enact whatever stupid idea passes through their empty heads… like boys can be girls.

Limited all forms of government are tolerable. Because despotism cannot exist when the power to tyrannize is limited. The very nature of autocratic government, the least tolerable, is it’s unlimited ability to force the people to its will. Limits, by their nature, force the elite to allow the people their own will. To the detriment of a corrupt elite, but benefit of the nation, economy, and culture. Put another way, despotic government can’t exist in limited form. How do you limit a tyrant? If he’s limited he’s not a tyrant. A poor President perhaps but not a tyrant. On the other hand, a President who’s limited in label, but not in reality, is the most dangerous form of despot. A covert despot. Which means limits must have coercive power else they’re merely labels without meaning.

The ideal government is one that’s sustainably limited. So we can enjoy our freedoms with as few aggravations from pestering elites as possible. Sustainably, means the limits transfer from not only the virtuous that don’t notice them, but to the villains, who set themselves to upending any and all limits to their usurpations. Limits are utterly ineffective on villains if the limits have no teeth. Since a pinky swear won’t keep a psychopath in line. Limits limit the ability of the elite to rule for their own benefit at cost to the nation. Therefore, we should be all about finding ways to limit the elite. The US Constitution was a start, but as we see, without teeth, it’s become chiffon lingerie covering naked despotism. Teeth, like a Numa, is the next step in the evolution to human hearted governing.

Sincerely,

John Pepin
