Dear Friends,
It seems to me, our vision for humanity is vastly different than that of the progressive elite. Judging by their actions, policies and rhetoric, the establishment wants to create a dystopia, as in the science fiction movies… to make way for a one world utopia, like in Star Trek. Mad Max to the Wrath of Khan. While our vision is one where government is absolutely transparent, very limited and politics are not the center of most people’s lives. The progressive ideal is the world as a corporation, while ours is the world as a cooperative of small businesses. Theirs of thought control, ours of thought expansion. The two views for the future could not be more diametrically opposed. Let’s behold the difference in more detail, in order to make an assessment, which is better in the long term.
The progressive religion is atheism. Establishing atheism as the State religion of the US, by clever political and legal machinations… was very progressive. Increasingly we see that, like the Chinese Communist Party, that has atheism as their State religion, other religions, especially the most disfavored, are oppressed. In the US, Christian Churches, Synagogues and Mosques have been selectively closed by the State… because, the Kung Flu. State religion is the hallmark of a totalitarian system. Freedom of both religion and of conscience on the other hand, are the goal of an enlightened civilization. We agree with the US founding fathers and believe establishing a state religion, even and especially anti religion as the State religion… is a bad idea.
Progressive utopianists believe in a one world government like Buddhists believe in Buddha. It is a major tenet of their atheistic temporal sophist philosophy. They see a world government as a place where there would be no war, because there is only one government, duh… and that is one of their primary driving factors. To make a logical argument before diving into rhetoric, the farther the seat of government is, from the people it governs, the less responsible, transparent and accountable it becomes. A world government then, would be the most unaccountable, irresponsible and opaque government possible. Perhaps a better way would be to keep the nation state model, and tweak it by making government absolutely transparent, accountable and responsible for its results.
The progressive ideal government is the Administrative state. A totalitarian inescapable world wide bureaucracy, of by and for, bureaucrats. To that glorious future they are willing, for us, to endure some suffering. Their vision is one where most people are dependent on the government, only educated enough to participate in an idiocracy and hopped up on drugs. They see humanity as a herd of cattle to be corralled, sent to a feedlot and slaughtered. A different possibility would be to unleash the volcano of innovation trapped within the human soul. Eliminate the smothering bureaucracy, cut taxes and the overall burden of government. Allow people to concentrate on their own business, instead of forcing us to stare at government, because our fates hang in the balance of it’s arbitrary whims.
Our vision is one where everything government does is immediately transmitted to the internet and cached for the future… for anyone to see. If people saw what their government actually did, I think we would be horrified. Our culture would embrace Enlightenment values tempered with Christian morality. Especially the Golden Rule. A future where there is so much opportunity, there is no time for crime, bigotry or fraud. Transparent government would force our leaders to be virtuous, and like Confucius said, people follow their leaders. Instead of the path we are on today… where we are surveilled from behind a black curtain, by an unaccountable totalitarian government, our courts practice arbitrary rule, stripping us of our Rights as our standard of living is eroded.
Which vision do you prefer?
Sincerely,
John Pepin
