Continuing: One of the characteristics of totalitarian regimes is a stringent demand for adherence to its doctrines. They are oppressive in nature specifically toward those refusing to strictly conform to its rules in all areas both public and private. In the past this oppression manifested itself through violence or some other form of forced submission, or the threat of it through government enforcement. It is usually accompanied by public discrediting as a spectacle to discourage any and all others from daring to deviate. In our time we live in what has become a de facto modern state of totalitarianism, the rules set in the stone of media driven pop-culture demonstrations of proper faithfulness to all things politically correct. Those controlling the information, media, academia, church, and government are then lobbied and public policy codify to insure adherence and to punish deviance from these new societal principles. More recently we’ve seen used the same tactics and means to outlaw a return to past thoughts of normalcy. They by proclamation deem their new creations undeniable truths and any who dare see reality and reject them are called deniers, even worthy of imprisonment (issues such as global warming, Islamic terrorism, trans gender, and infanticide).
In order to achieve this Judeo-Christian cultural norms and reality-based discourse was necessarily defamed, then destroyed, first through ridicule and next by demonization by a fully complicit mass media. Now anyone who refuses to blindly accept and comply with the new dogma is called any of a multiplicity of names ending in “phobic,” and in a way consistent with, and reminiscent of, the former Soviet Union. These ways are as a silencing tactic wherein the offender is said to be mentally ill or deficient, either way in need of psychiatric help or reeducation.
This is the culture war we are engaged in, and our failure to vigorously engage those waging it appears more evident in the destructive effects seen in each successive generation. These, our young, may be the most difficult to awaken due to their total emersion in the cloud of corrupted reason, and submission to it as a necessity to live peacefully with pop-culture acceptance and affirmation. It is as if in the very air they breathe, as a spirit permeating every aspect of their daily lives.
One of the most important realities to be seen in the recent Wikileaks’ email dumps is found in one email from a man named Bill Ivey to John Podesta, Clinton’s campaign manager. Bill Ivey operates a company called Global Cultural Strategies, supposedly an arts advocacy think tank. In fact it is globalist minded in the sense of finding ways to degrade and destroy the superior standing of the Judeo-Christian America centric culture (elevate lesser cultures by bringing ours down to their more ancient standard).
In the email Bill Ivey tells of the method they (liberal progressives in government) rely upon to achieving blind compliance to anything they tell those now blindly and without curiosity following their every cultural dictate. It speaks of the insiders relying totally on polls, meaning they are testing messages that get them the response they desire. It goes on to admit to the intention and tactic of inducing ignorance as Ivey laments that it is working less and less by saying, “The unawareness remains strong but compliance is obviously fading rapidly.”
I am going to paste the entire email, but we must briefly examine why the compliance is rapidly faded. To understanding it we must look at the admission of another totalitarian regime when it comes to the tactic of mass deception.
Joseph Goebbels was the Minister of Propaganda for Hitler’s National Socialist (Nazi) Party. Here is what he said about deception acheived by telling the “big” lies, and how long they could be kept unknown as lies.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
I ask all the young people reading this post: When reading in the above paragraph my parenthetically questioning things you have come to blindly accept as truths, Did you immediately think of me as someone you would describe with a word ending in “phobic?” If you did you are one of the “unaware” and “compliant” people Bill Ivey and John Podesta were discussing. They and their ilk conspire to keep you in this state and under their control, to be used at their will as pawns to achieve their political ends.
I, and others of like mind, are those who think deeply about the ideas that have made our culture better than all others, and they are the principles of equality, mutual respect and liberty. Therefore we will not and have not forced our ideas upon anyone. And yes I know that everything you have heard and been taught say the opposite.
For those who would like to read on I am going to post passages below from God’s word describing those who have taken people captive by their lies, and also of the freedom, peace and liberty God desire for all humanity. That is what both, “the law of nature and nature’s God,” seek to achieve: a state of civility (civilization) where all are protected equally. It is a state of mutual/reciprocal respect for life, liberty and property, in which we can live in peace with our neighbors. I give you as evidence the opposite state (chaos) existing in our modern world without these principles.
2 Peter 2 speaks of the false teachers who would in our time, in all times, lead people astray. It is consistent human nature and thereby transcendently valid. President Calvin Coolidge once explained the ideas our nation was founded upon as being final and unable to be improved upon. He also said that any attempts to do so wouldn’t be progress, but rather they are reactionary and a return to more ancient ideas. He said this in a speech he gave commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The ideas he speaks of are those we once saw in truth as self-evident and so by the evidence seen in what they produce when implemented. The “new” ideas of our time are not new at all but instead merely a repackaging of the same bad ideas that have failed throughout history; failed because they aren’t based in equality and mutual security, and therefore, as we see today, unable to produce civilization.
From President Calvin Coolidge’s speech 5 July 1926:
“About the Declaration there is a finality that is exceedingly restful. It is often asserted that the world has made a great deal of progress since 1776, that we have had new thoughts and new experiences which have given us a great advance over the people of that day, and that we may therefore very well discard their conclusions for something more modern. But that reasoning can not be applied to this great charter. If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people. Those who wish to proceed in that direction can not lay claim to progress. They are reactionary. Their ideas are not more modern, but more ancient, than those of the Revolutionary fathers.
In the development of its institutions America can fairly claim that it has remained true to the principles which were declared 150 years ago. In all the essentials we have achieved an equality which was never possessed by any other people. Even in the less important matter of material possessions we have secured a wider and wider distribution of wealth. The rights of the individual are held sacred and protected by constitutional guaranties which even the Government itself is bound not to violate. If there is any one thing among us that is established beyond question, it is self-government – the right of the people to rule. If there is any failure in respect to any of these principles, it is because there is a failure on the part of individuals to observe them. We hold that the duly authorized expression of the will of the people has a divine sanction. But even in that we come back to the theory of John Wise that ‘Democracy is Christ’s government * * *.’ The ultimate sanction of law rests on the righteous authority of the Almighty.”
2 Peter 2
1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who from their own imaginations shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the LORD that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their malicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 And through a deep lust for power and wealth shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingers not, and their damnation slumbers not.
4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down into the netherworld, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;
5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of equality in judgment, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes of their chosen self-destruction condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live without God’s intended form of governing;
7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked [the corrupted pop culture of his day]:
8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)
9 The LORD knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
10 But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
11 Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the LORD.
12 But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
14 Having eyes full of straying from God’s ways, and that cannot cease from their own errors; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: by a voiceless donkey speaking with man’s voice forbidding the madness of the false prophet.
17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.
20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the LORD and Savior Jesus Christ [the ways of God’s perfect government and its liberty], they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of equality and justice, than, after they have known it, to turn from this holy commandment delivered unto them.
22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again [vomiting back and consuming again the same type of lies they just had to eat because they were proven to be deceptions]; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire [sporting themselves in agitation and strife].

Dear John:
Well, we all thought the big problem for our US democracy was Citizens United/Koch Brothers big money in politics. Silly us; turns out that money isn’t all that important if you can conflate entertainment with the electoral process. Trump masters TV, TV so-called news picks up and repeats and repeats to death this opinionated blowhard and his hairbrained ideas,
free-floating discontent attaches to a seeming strongman and we’re off and running. JFK, Jr would be delighted by all this as his “George” magazine saw celebrity politics coming. The magazine struggled as it was ahead of its time but now looks prescient. George, of course, played the development pretty lightly, basically for charm and gossip, like People, but what we are dealing with now is dead serious. How does this get handled in the general?
Secretary Clinton is not an entertainer, and not a celebrity in the Trump, Kardashian mold; what can she do to offset this? I’m certain the poll-directed insiders are sure things will default to policy as soon as the conventions are over, but I think not. And as I’ve mentioned, we’ve all been quite content to demean government, drop civics and in general conspire to produce an unaware and compliant citizenry. The unawareness remains strong but compliance is obviously fading rapidly. This problem demands
some serious, serious thinking – and not just poll driven,
demographically-inspired messaging.
Rubio’s press conference yesterday AM was good and should be repeated in its entirety, not just in nibbles. I will attend the Clinton fundraiser here next week but as I can only afford the low level of participation may just get to wave without a “hello.”
I fear we are all now trying to navigate a set of forces that cannot be
simply explained or fully understood, so it is and will reamin interesting!
Sent with a handshake,
Bill
