I think they hate the traditional family because it is easier to control an atomized society. They also do not like masculine men or feminine women. They want to invert the normal social dynamic between man and woman.
I read that somewhere. There was a book written by a sociologist called “Bowling Alone”. I can’t take credit for this but once you are red-pilled and start connecting the dots, you can see the pattern.
"Debating the future of contested land and the people who held it, policymakers divided into two camps, either arguing that native people would physically fade from the scene and literally cease to exist or arguing that they would cease to exist as native people." Just who is being (or is already) atomized in this case, though? Who is already physically fading from the scene or otherwise ceasing to exist? Given biological and physical reality, and the very real negative effects of ignoring it, this all seems to be an ephemeral case of self-atomization (self-immolation?) that won't penetrate 'society' very far or last very long.
Well, anyone who keeps track of reality and acts rationally with regard to it does, in fact, implicitly own 'acres' of that general reality (and a partial interest in all its real lands). The atomized, on the other hand, are unintentionally giving up their former partial jointly held ownership of the "contested land", leaving it to those who manage to avoid atomization.
Thank you Chris, it is extremely simple, control and indoctrinate children and you control the future. Control their language and you control their minds and thoughts. The Germans knew it, the Soviets knew it, the Spartans knew it; I needed you to point it out and my head almost exploded. It is really all so simple; thank you for all that you do.
Just carrying on a bit... And those Native Americans found out later what had been done, or they remembered, and they were resentful, and they took back their own reality. It didn't matter so much what kind of clothes they wore-- they realized they had their own Selves.
What's being done to children right now is an abomination, just as trying to erase someone's heritage... It's pathological and evil. Let them kids alone. Adults can do as they wish.
And the Jesuits also proselytised that fact of life; a message quickly absorbed by the banker/aristocracy alliance that formed in response to Thomas Paine's books and the subsequent French and American revolutions. Colonialism was the parallel expression. State Education followed from 1973.
Planned Parenthood's Jaffe Memo, dated March 11, 1969, might shed some light on the issue. The chart on Page 9 is a good summary of their goals, many of which have been achieved:
The whole memo is creepy, but that is especially creepy. People aren't interested in sex if they are chronically depressed, thus lowering fertility. And chronically depressed people are more apt to commit suicide. Both would ostensibly help achieve the stated goal of reducing the population. So, what is Jaffe suggesting? That chronic depression is desirable and should somehow be promoted? 😳
In ancient times, conquering armies slaughtered the men and took the women as slaves, since -- sorry gender studies majors -- women would be more servile and less likely to revolt violently than the men. I guess since the woke culture warriors aren't comfortable with straightforward violence, rather than slaughtering the men, they convince the rising generation of boys to hate maleness and become "women" -- i.e., more servile and less likely to revolt violently against rising totalitarianism. There does seem to be a method to the madness!
Just my two cents' here: Women are "more servile" and "less violent" than men mostly because men force them to be. Culturally, and on a one-to-one level. Why? Because men are mostly bigger and stronger than most women. Might makes right? No, might makes force.
They also castrated prisoners too and used rape (against both genders) as a weapon. This is a low intensity version of the same adapted for the purposes of domestication and pacification. It is the permanent establishment of a humiliation ritual designed to demoralise the population.
Sexual exploitation (and the grooming which precedes it) is a part of the humiliation ritual and a reward for those who are licensed by the regime to practice it.
I thought one of the main things Ishiguro's *Never Let Me Go* was about was the destruction (by government and the medical-industrial complex) of the relationship between parents and children. People are just consumable products or consumers of those products. The Hailsham kids have no parents (not in any sense that is meaningful to someone my age) and have been engineered to have no children. Each person is just a piece of commerce, and of course the big moment in the book (and even in the movie) is the line by Miss Emily: "We didn't have to look into your souls. We had to see if you had souls at all." And of course even seeing that these human beings did have souls, they didn't change their dehumanizing plans one bit.
I feel sorry for Mulvaney. He doesn't even realize that he is a piece of commerce, to be tossed aside as soon as his usefulness as a promoter of [fill in the blank with any number of things] is used up, or he starts looking too creepy [for whatever demographic isn't already creeped out] to pretend to be a "girl." We've got a long way to go, though, because most of the population hasn't yet been convinced (as JAMA's editorial staff has) that men being able to menstruate is a human right (doi:10.1001/jamasurg.2022.2652 and doi:10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2020.34561). I guess we have some more promotional programming to look forward to as the Complex sells America on the idea that it's a human right for a man to have a dead woman's uterus.
Native Americans were defeated physically, spiritually and outnumbered. Not sure this applies. The people pushing these gender changes aren’t in the majority and the people they are trying to steam roll are spiritually superior and haven’t been physically decimated. Won’t stop them from trying
The gender issues are a form of what the tribal destruction was about. Our sense of sexual identity is at the heart of what we know about ourselves. Just as the tribal languages, spirituality, medicine, their politics, etc was at the heart of what they knew about themselves. Their cultures were ancient. Male/female goes back to thr beginning of all time as this is a dualistic universe. The idiots are trying to tear us apart at our very cellular level. And will try to remake us into things that are no longer human. But we started as the arrogant conquerors of cultures that were inconvenient and in our way. Not much difference now as the arrogant conquerors of today work to wipe out those of us who are inconvenient and take up space and use resources they wish to keep for themselves. Insanity.
Forest... With respect, if I may: your "The idiots are trying to tear us apart at our very cellular level" makes more sense if you rephrase it as "The coalition of democidal psychopaths (eugenicists) are trying to reduce us to powerless, identity-less and aspiration-less slaves". This places the situation in a context that isolates and identifies the real enemy and, more importanly, makes obvious the absolute futility of appealing to these monster's senses of compassion and humanity with non-violent peaceful protest.
They are a step ahead of us. By creating two heroes (applying the same PR psychology as the 1945 Two Bombs Policy) in Gandhi and King, and providing credibility by ensuring their apparent success, we have been 'educated' to march joyously to our own death camps.
We need to address the reality that our adversaries are cold and democidal monsters who can only be defeated with their extinction. Anything less, and we will go down this same path again, with declining possibilities for survival.
"Non-violent peaceful protest" is a pre-programmed response to global takeover and democide, designed specifically to prevent an effective response.
Considering that this campaign by a mega-resourced elite has been planned for 207 years, we can safely presume they have covered all eventualities. The plan is fail-safe, as is made evident by the recent revelation that the covid emergency was entirely faux, to precipitate vaccination with an artificial virus and PCR test swab particle, that will kill some victims, but will not really commence full attack until activated by 5G.
The planning was intricate and assisted by the parallel control of politicians, bureaucrats, and MSM, with bribery, fear and blackmail. It is foolish to imagine that the main means of preventing effective resistance, the programmed value of "non-violent peaceful protest", will somehow backfire. It will not. It is a tyrant's wetdream to be attacked by weaponless peaceniks.
There is one possible strategy that might defeat the enemy but I am not about to proselytise this. The enemy also knows that forewarned is forearmed.
In addition to Gandhi and King, there was the popularity of gurus and Buddhism, which hit the big time in the 70s but started earlier with beatniks. So many people, even on Substack, automatically recommend nonviolent resistance, not realizing that Gandhi and King had a lot of support in their adversaries' culture, while our enemies want to wipe us out.
So true, feral lunch lady... At almost 80, I well remember the Beat Generation and, although I wore the same uniform... stupid-looking beard, stovepipe pants and sloppy Joe, I never did subscribe to the peacenik ethic. Like many born during WWII, I valued self-defense.
Back then, Gandhi's message was regarded as some inexplicable and eccentric Hindu behaviour and most certainly 'not to be emulated by racially superior white folks'. But the black civil rights movement brought the ethic into everybody's living room screen and the media drew the dots for us all. And by all, I refer to academia, civil intelligentsia, and art nouvaux world; not bluecollar workers or red necks.
Of critical significance, the working class continues to reject the entire concept of "non-violent peaceful protest". When the working class is forced to turn away from football and beer and realise its children have been murdered, the reaction will be spontaneous and ultra violent. Politicians, doctors, nurses, bureaucrats, and journalists will be torn apart, burned alive, hurled from building tops, or any other method of despatch that satifies the need for vengeance. Then it will turn into civil war. They will kill whomever they do not like, especially anybody talking 'non-violence'.
As most of the working class will be already jabbed, fear will generate great cruelities. As 5G towers emerge, many survivors will quickly die. By then, it is likely that 60% of the community will be dead or dying. Mission achieved. But that is when the unjabbed resistance will strike. The attack numbers will be small but creativity will be great. Beyond that point I cannot speculate.
There's varying means of resistance, but in my view, trying to play David to Goliath seems a stupid way to die... And ironic, when they're trying to kill us already, not just starve us or freeze us...
Non-lethal resistance can mean a whole lot of things...
Yes, I am not uninformed. I'm saying non-violent protest that consists of fucking up their plans. Creativity, and I'm not about to say much else here, either, but... Creativity. Element of surprise. Unexpected. FUCKING UP THEIR PLANS. Woof a doodle doooo.
"What kind of adults do they intend to make when they argue for gender-affirming medical care for children, and when they argue that it’s morally wrong to ban it or limit it, and when they center gender identity and drag queens in the discourse of childhood? What do they intend to make?"
Damn good and interesting question...
As someone who's had the misfortune of viewing the New Left and their phalanx of sophistic charlatans called "postmodern theorists" up close, I'm not sure they've ever successfully "made" anything.
Look at their scholarship: just a bunch of sterile gibberish that wraps word clouds around concepts borrowed from Mao and that all boils down to moral and emotional blackmail: agree with and obey me or else you hate the marginalized!
Look at their supposed art: the same slogans packaged in new bottles that are really an updated form of Soviet agitprop but with a modern American twist of narcissistic self-absorption.
Look at their disciples: really a collection of the world's most misshapen, misbegotten and miserable humans ever to walk the earth.
But to try to answer the question: their Promised Land of "socialist liberation" involves 1) a complete inversion of the social pyramid of say the 1950s, where the European Christian male goes from first to worst, where yesterday's zeroes become tomorrow's heroes; and 2) a vanguard of commissars overseeing it all, invested with total power over every aspect of society. (Basically, Marcuse's idea of Slavery disguised as Liberation).
And like all fundamentalists, they start with children first bc they are easiest to convince and control and because if you own their brains you own the future.
I'm working my way through de Tocqueville's famous Democracy in America. It was on my list to catch up with the classics I've never read. The 1830 English translation makes it a slog, but I highly recommend Chapter XVIII (18) of his first volume: The Present and Probable Future Conditions of the Three Races which Inhabit the Territory of the United States. De Tocqueville has long been public domain of course, and you can find chapter 18 online easily I'm sure. That chapter deals very presciently with the issues both the Indian and African Diaspora races were going to and now have, faced in this country.
Marx himself recognized that destroying the family was essential to his vision. The Left is just another Christian heresy, and always has been. Judaism and Christianity with their emphasis on personal salvation and therefore personal responsibility are what separates the West from the rest of the world, so banishing religion from the public square was always the first, essential goal. That is what differentiates the West from the so-called "honor cultures" (really reputation cultures) of the Middle and Far East.
Freedom, so long planted deep in an American's soul, dies hard though, even if traditional Christianity and Judaism are corrupted and forced out of the public square. The revolt of the abstractionists against the sodbusters will not end well for any of us.
Just a little thought bomb for you: There is evidence that Christianity and Judaism were subverted by the Romans, and the Torah and Bible were "edited" to pervert the social activism that were inherently part of both, particularly Christianity. Not saying this is Absolute Truth, but it's an interesting journey into a rather not-so-common proposition.
Sorry, not buying it. Especially not with the, "I have a list of names..." approach. There's no reason to believe such a thing. Why would the Romans, who persecuted Christianity until the early 4th century try to alter part of the their foundational documents--especially to coincide with trendy, 20th-21st century, post-christian social activism? We have actual manuscripts dating from at least the early second century, and good contextual evidence that the Gospels had their current versions before 70 AD. Translations of someone's words from 2,000 years ago can be tricky, I'll grant you, but alterations? No sale.
True believers were not above creating new "Gospels" that our lefty friends are so fond of "discovering". Those are called heresies. That's why the Christian Church got together and wrote the Nicene Creed to say to everyone, "This is what you have to believe to be a Christian. If you contradict any of these things, you're not a true follower of Christ."
Whatever. It seems you are afraid to question, which makes me wonder why you're on Substack. Besides, it doesn't matter that much to me what you or anyone else thinks. What matters is what people DO. And no, I'm not a follower, period. I'm a free dog.
The single most lasting relationship over time is that of a mother and her child - that stands in the way of government control. The breakdown of the family has, in many traditional strongholds of family values, been destroyed by the virtual elimination of the fathers role and responsibilities - resulting in government dependency and the rise of crime. Corrupting the education of our children with critical race theory and gender ideology in an unabashed attempt to dilute and sabotage the parent-child bond is just another step in creating a generation of dependents. That will be the hill on which this battle is won or lost. The latest insult to that relationship has been the lock-out of children from schools and the insane CDC recommendation to include Covid shots on the childhood vaccinations schedule, an experimental drug with a spike protein from the Wuhan virus which is now extinct and has uncounted adverse effects on healthy children and adults with no benefit for the containment of the later mutations of the virus. Again, Chris, thanks for focusing your readers on this insidious invasion and disruption of the family.
I had no idea I was so evil. To whom to I prostrate myself? Is self flagellation required? Or can I just send a check to a thoroughly corrupt DEI group to save myself?
BTW, it should be DIE, not DEI.....they lost a good chance at an appropriate acronym there...
I don't have any answers.....as I see no practical goal.
The adults produced by the gender affirming crowd tend to be quite useless and needy members of society...fraught with emotional and physical instability. WHY would you want that?
The preferred mechanism of control available to the regime is curated dysfunction. This destabilises the lower orders, suppresses the capacity of the population for resistance to control from above and manages society by promoting anomie and morbidity (both psychic and somatic). Destroying the traditional family is essential, because families are resistant to control by external forces and the loyalty between family members is an affront to social engineers who seek to reduce the level of cohesion and trust in the subject population.
Just as feminism enabled capitalists to manage the fertility of the female population, the LGBQT and gender fluidity agenda enables the regime to weaponise gender, sexuality and interpersonal relationships. The regime also seeks to disrupt the fertility of the next generation by supporting LGBTQI and gender fluidity.
Thanks. The normalization of dysfunction is the defining feature of social policy across the West today. The established order generates chaos, decay, and both psychic and somatic morbidity as a means of control. I call this Sado-Malthusian governance: when the state and its allies treat much of the domestic population as enemies subject to a regime of malicious dirigisme. This is camouflaged at the moment by therapeutic and eudaimonic rhetoric, but the character of the regime and its aims is obvious.
The current wave of escalating dysfunction is an attempt to contain the breakdown of the post-Cold War social peace which had been enabled by consumer credit and cheap imports for the household sector, mass media and the promise of future upward social mobility by education. Since 2008 the regime has had to manage intensifying austerity and insecurity. Disabling a significant minority of the subaltern population has reduced the risk of successful opposition from below. It is all a low intensity civil war via deindustrialisation, pauperisation and malefic social policy. The resulting anomie and atomisation (and rising rates of mortality amongst working class whites) are proof that curated dysfunction works.
I think we should specify the "they" I see in some responses.
I see two distinct groups that want to remake childhood. First, there are the megalomaniacal, power-seeking psychopaths. These are composed primarily of politicians and billionaire empresarios who achieved their positions because they view other human beings as sheep to be herded, sheared, and slaughtered for their own benefit. As do conventional shepherds, this group knows that the earlier they interfere in the natural process, the easier and more productive will be the shearing and slaughtering.
The second group is composed of those ever-present self-righteous fools who think it is their right; their duty even; to impose their innate goodness on every other living soul. We have always had such people and we will always have them. In today's world, however, they are far more dangerous because a) most have discarded traditional religions, leaving their supposed moral superiority without the restraint of a supreme being or any written rules and, perhaps most importantly, b) their particular mental disorder makes them extremely useful idiots for psychopaths.
Excellent article. History is a great teacher, that's why they erase it going back as far as time. Being well is based on cellular heath, also called whole body health. Family is naturally, organically cellular heath of the body society. A person with good cellular health gets a cold, no big deal. But a person (like elderly) get a cold or flu, its bye bye. Our countries cellular health is the medical emergency.
Very insightful and educational piece. In AZ we have a long experience in this particular project of deracinating native culture. It generally hasn’t turned out well for the defeated, but it never does. There’s still a lot of poverty, isolation, and resentment,despite/because the Federal Govt.‘s finger in the pie, as usual. Maybe it didn’t have to turn out as it did, but we will never know. As badly as we treated the indigenous people of America, how much different is it to what we tried to do to tribal peoples in the Middle East? America wants everybody to be like us and love us. And when they reject us, we destroy them, or die trying. How’s that working out? The desire to improve oneself is helpful. The desire to remake everybody in your image is unhealthy. The lack of tolerance for the indigenous peoples and the parallels to today’s condescending woketards as they judge the rest of us is apropos. The difference is that the 19th century social engineers were genuine if imperfect pioneers, building a new country. The enterprise today is performative, cynical and stupid. Stupid precisely because we already know how this ends (badly) and because it reflects a lack of historical understanding. We aren’t peasants in thatched huts or Indians in loincloths living in the wilderness. We are economically powerful, politically powerful, sophisticated in terms of education and experience, armed, have access to instant, mass communications, vastly outnumber our domestic detractors, and as Americans are innately rebellious toward authority, particularly misplaced authority. People don’t like the New Democrats and their divisive agenda. They suck. This is a major problem for the Commies. That’s why they can’t debate. They know that we know. The NWO bit off more than they can chew this time. You’re gonna see that in November. And we won’t be so slow to organize or tolerant should they try pull this crap again. Meanwhile , cleanup on aisle 7.
I think they hate the traditional family because it is easier to control an atomized society. They also do not like masculine men or feminine women. They want to invert the normal social dynamic between man and woman.
"Atomized society" feels like 90% of it in just two words.
I read that somewhere. There was a book written by a sociologist called “Bowling Alone”. I can’t take credit for this but once you are red-pilled and start connecting the dots, you can see the pattern.
"Debating the future of contested land and the people who held it, policymakers divided into two camps, either arguing that native people would physically fade from the scene and literally cease to exist or arguing that they would cease to exist as native people."

Given biological and physical reality, and the very real negative effects of ignoring it, this all seems to be an ephemeral case of self-atomization (self-immolation?) that won't penetrate 'society' very far or last very long.
You make me want to own acres of land.
Well, anyone who keeps track of reality and acts rationally with regard to it does, in fact, implicitly own 'acres' of that general reality (and a partial interest in all its real lands). The atomized, on the other hand, are unintentionally giving up their former partial jointly held ownership of the "contested land", leaving it to those who manage to avoid atomization.

"People who remake other people’s children are conquerors, consolidating a victory,"

Native Americans were defeated physically, spiritually and outnumbered. Not sure this applies. The people pushing these gender changes aren’t in the majority and the people they are trying to steam roll are spiritually superior and haven’t been physically decimated. Won’t stop them from trying
I think the current example will play out very differently, yes, but I think the instinct to control the future by controlling children is comparable.
I agree 100% but wasn’t able to convey it as articulated as you.
You're still doing fine, you're in agreement, and so am I.
The gender issues are a form of what the tribal destruction was about. Our sense of sexual identity is at the heart of what we know about ourselves.

I so agree... And, what if the non-violent protest consists of fucking up their plans?
"Non-violent peaceful protest" is a pre-programmed response to global takeover and democide, designed specifically to prevent an effective response.
Considering that this campaign by a mega-resourced elite has been planned for 207 years, we can safely presume they have covered all eventualities.

It is foolish to imagine that the main means of preventing effective resistance, the programmed value of "non-violent peaceful protest", will somehow backfire. It will not. It is a tyrant's wetdream to be attacked by weaponless peaceniks.
There is one possible strategy that might defeat the enemy but I am not about to proselytise this. The enemy also knows that forewarned is forearmed.

YES. And falling into another, newer, trap of destruction by gender manipulation for children is just as VILE as what was done to the Native children.
Indeed.
"What kind of adults do they intend to make when they argue for gender-affirming medical care for children, and when they argue that it’s morally wrong to ban it or limit it, and when they center gender identity and drag queens in the discourse of childhood? What do they intend to make?"
Damn good and interesting question...
As someone who's had the misfortune of viewing the New Left and their phalanx of sophistic charlatans called "postmodern theorists" up close, I'm not sure they've ever successfully "made" anything.
Look at their scholarship: just a bunch of sterile gibberish that wraps word clouds around concepts borrowed from Mao and that all boils down to moral and emotional blackmail: agree with and obey me or else you hate the marginalized!
Look at their supposed art: the same slogans packaged in new bottles that are really an updated form of Soviet agitprop but with a modern American twist of narcissistic self-absorption.
Look at their disciples: really a collection of the world's most misshapen, misbegotten and miserable humans ever to walk the earth.
But to try to answer the question: their Promised Land of "socialist liberation" involves 1) a complete inversion of the social pyramid of say the 1950s, where the European Christian male goes from first to worst, where yesterday's zeroes become tomorrow's heroes; and 2) a vanguard of commissars overseeing it all, invested with total power over every aspect of society. (Basically, Marcuse's idea of Slavery disguised as Liberation).
And like all fundamentalists, they start with children first bc they are easiest to convince and control and because if you own their brains you own the future.
I'm working my way through de Tocqueville's famous Democracy in America. It was on my list to catch up with the classics I've never read. The 1830 English translation makes it a slog, but I highly recommend Chapter XVIII (18) of his first volume: The Present and Probable Future Conditions of the Three Races which Inhabit the Territory of the United States. De Tocqueville has long been public domain of course, and you can find chapter 18 online easily I'm sure. That chapter deals very presciently with the issues both the Indian and African Diaspora races were going to and now have, faced in this country.
Marx himself recognized that destroying the family was essential to his vision. The Left is just another Christian heresy, and always has been. Judaism and Christianity with their emphasis on personal salvation and therefore personal responsibility are what separates the West from the rest of the world, so banishing religion from the public square was always the first, essential goal. That is what differentiates the West from the so-called "honor cultures" (really reputation cultures) of the Middle and Far East.
Freedom, so long planted deep in an American's soul, dies hard though, even if traditional Christianity and Judaism are corrupted and forced out of the public square. The revolt of the abstractionists against the sodbusters will not end well for any of us.
Just a little thought bomb for you: There is evidence that Christianity and Judaism were subverted by the Romans, and the Torah and Bible were "edited" to pervert the social activism that were inherently part of both, particularly Christianity. Not saying this is Absolute Truth, but it's an interesting journey into a rather not-so-common proposition.
"There is evidence that..."
Sorry, not buying it. Especially not with the, "I have a list of names..." approach. There's no reason to believe such a thing. Why would the Romans, who persecuted Christianity until the early 4th century try to alter part of the their foundational documents--especially to coincide with trendy, 20th-21st century, post-christian social activism? We have actual manuscripts dating from at least the early second century, and good contextual evidence that the Gospels had their current versions before 70 AD. Translations of someone's words from 2,000 years ago can be tricky, I'll grant you, but alterations? No sale.
True believers were not above creating new "Gospels" that our lefty friends are so fond of "discovering". Those are called heresies. That's why the Christian Church got together and wrote the Nicene Creed to say to everyone, "This is what you have to believe to be a Christian. If you contradict any of these things, you're not a true follower of Christ."
Whatever. It seems you are afraid to question, which makes me wonder why you're on Substack. Besides, it doesn't matter that much to me what you or anyone else thinks. What matters is what people DO. And no, I'm not a follower, period. I'm a free dog.
The single most lasting relationship over time is that of a mother and her child - that stands in the way of government control. The breakdown of the family has, in many traditional strongholds of family values, been destroyed by the virtual elimination of the fathers role and responsibilities - resulting in government dependency and the rise of crime. Corrupting the education of our children with critical race theory and gender ideology in an unabashed attempt to dilute and sabotage the parent-child bond is just another step in creating a generation of dependents. That will be the hill on which this battle is won or lost. The latest insult to that relationship has been the lock-out of children from schools and the insane CDC recommendation to include Covid shots on the childhood vaccinations schedule, an experimental drug with a spike protein from the Wuhan virus which is now extinct and has uncounted adverse effects on healthy children and adults with no benefit for the containment of the later mutations of the virus. Again, Chris, thanks for focusing your readers on this insidious invasion and disruption of the family.
OMG...so I am literally Hitler!!
I had no idea I was so evil. To whom to I prostrate myself? Is self flagellation required? Or can I just send a check to a thoroughly corrupt DEI group to save myself?
BTW, it should be DIE, not DEI.....they lost a good chance at an appropriate acronym there...
No they got the acronym right. You do know that DEI is Latin for God? It is the root word for deity. America here is your god.
Good point....Not big into Latin, but now that you showed me....and yes, we have tons of false Gods nowadays.
Excellent column. Very insightful and thoughtful.
I don't have any answers.....as I see no practical goal.
The adults produced by the gender affirming crowd tend to be quite useless and needy members of society...fraught with emotional and physical instability. WHY would you want that?
There are reasons to want a useless and needy population.
I guess so....but I tend to be practical--the HORROR. I want useful members of society and merely tolerate the useless ones.
To actively create and encourage uselessness is something I will never understand.
I guess that makes me a white supremacist....bwahaha
Literally everything makes all forms of disagreement white supremacy, so.
Chris, great article.
The preferred mechanism of control available to the regime is curated dysfunction. This destabilises the lower orders, suppresses the capacity of the population for resistance to control from above and manages society by promoting anomie and morbidity (both psychic and somatic). Destroying the traditional family is essential, because families are resistant to control by external forces and the loyalty between family members is an affront to social engineers who seek to reduce the level of cohesion and trust in the subject population.
Just as feminism enabled capitalists to manage the fertility of the female population, the LGBQT and gender fluidity agenda enables the regime to weaponise gender, sexuality and interpersonal relationships. The regime also seeks to disrupt the fertility of the next generation by supporting LGBTQI and gender fluidity.
I like "curated dysfunction" quite a bit.
Thanks. The normalization of dysfunction is the defining feature of social policy across the West today. The established order generates chaos, decay, and both psychic and somatic morbidity as a means of control. I call this Sado-Malthusian governance: when the state and its allies treat much of the domestic population as enemies subject to a regime of malicious dirigisme. This is camouflaged at the moment by therapeutic and eudaimonic rhetoric, but the character of the regime and its aims is obvious.
The current wave of escalating dysfunction is an attempt to contain the breakdown of the post-Cold War social peace which had been enabled by consumer credit and cheap imports for the household sector, mass media and the promise of future upward social mobility by education. Since 2008 the regime has had to manage intensifying austerity and insecurity. Disabling a significant minority of the subaltern population has reduced the risk of successful opposition from below. It is all a low intensity civil war via deindustrialisation, pauperisation and malefic social policy. The resulting anomie and atomisation (and rising rates of mortality amongst working class whites) are proof that curated dysfunction works.
"Who remakes childhood and why?"
I think we should specify the "they" I see in some responses.
I see two distinct groups that want to remake childhood. First, there are the megalomaniacal, power-seeking psychopaths. These are composed primarily of politicians and billionaire empresarios who achieved their positions because they view other human beings as sheep to be herded, sheared, and slaughtered for their own benefit. As do conventional shepherds, this group knows that the earlier they interfere in the natural process, the easier and more productive will be the shearing and slaughtering.
The second group is composed of those ever-present self-righteous fools who think it is their right; their duty even; to impose their innate goodness on every other living soul. We have always had such people and we will always have them. In today's world, however, they are far more dangerous because a) most have discarded traditional religions, leaving their supposed moral superiority without the restraint of a supreme being or any written rules and, perhaps most importantly, b) their particular mental disorder makes them extremely useful idiots for psychopaths.
Excellent article. History is a great teacher, that's why they erase it going back as far as time. Being well is based on cellular heath, also called whole body health. Family is naturally, organically cellular heath of the body society. A person with good cellular health gets a cold, no big deal. But a person (like elderly) get a cold or flu, its bye bye. Our countries cellular health is the medical emergency.
Very insightful and educational piece. In AZ we have a long experience in this particular project of deracinating native culture. It generally hasn’t turned out well for the defeated, but it never does. There’s still a lot of poverty, isolation, and resentment,despite/because the Federal Govt.‘s finger in the pie, as usual. Maybe it didn’t have to turn out as it did, but we will never know. As badly as we treated the indigenous people of America, how much different is it to what we tried to do to tribal peoples in the Middle East? America wants everybody to be like us and love us. And when they reject us, we destroy them, or die trying. How’s that working out? The desire to improve oneself is helpful. The desire to remake everybody in your image is unhealthy. The lack of tolerance for the indigenous peoples and the parallels to today’s condescending woketards as they judge the rest of us is apropos. The difference is that the 19th century social engineers were genuine if imperfect pioneers, building a new country. The enterprise today is performative, cynical and stupid. Stupid precisely because we already know how this ends (badly) and because it reflects a lack of historical understanding. We aren’t peasants in thatched huts or Indians in loincloths living in the wilderness. We are economically powerful, politically powerful, sophisticated in terms of education and experience, armed, have access to instant, mass communications, vastly outnumber our domestic detractors, and as Americans are innately rebellious toward authority, particularly misplaced authority. People don’t like the New Democrats and their divisive agenda. They suck. This is a major problem for the Commies. That’s why they can’t debate. They know that we know. The NWO bit off more than they can chew this time. You’re gonna see that in November. And we won’t be so slow to organize or tolerant should they try pull this crap again. Meanwhile , cleanup on aisle 7.
