Today let’s look with a rational mind deeper into the temper tantrum of the irrational and the deluded, of which we and the world are in the initial stages of its coming full flower. As a different course, I am going to begin with a few comments that were made in response to this tantrum as it occurred on my Facebook page. The irrational rage started when I posted a story about Trump asking a fake news reporter (ABC) why they didn’t cover the pro-life march that was as big as the vile march (the vagina hat temper tantrum) that had occurred a few days earlier and was reported bigly. Of course, those who support the fake news media and vile marches were as always just as vile and irrational in their comments, (we can call them what they are: Trump haters, haters of American culture, or as a general description “the opposition party,” or maybe the coalition of the deluded and irrational.)
Here are the above referenced responses to the vile and irrational:
“I make it a rule not to argue with the irrational. The rule is, it is impossible and illogical to think a logical and rational argument can have or will have any effect on someone who rejects the truth of a rational and logical argument. The basis of liberalism is deception and it rejects all truth and rationale that disturbs its delusion upon which it bases all its arguments, as this post points out exquisitely [ABC ignoring the march for life.]
“The short version of the rule, never try to be rational with someone that is being irrational (like the liberals and the -fake- news media, and their temper tantrum.) Just let them go on and they will continue to melt down and eventually melt away. That is what they can’t see, even as it is happening. All we should keep doing is encourage them to melt down – and make sure the fire keeps burning so they do.
“Holy fire that is.”
These points need to be discussed from several perspectives, all premised on knowing this is only the beginning of the troubles. To begin we should once again be sure we understand what they are doing (know your enemy,) and of course we are able to know from their bible, Rules for Radicals, by Saul Alinsky. We have in prior posts discussed in detail his book, and how all progressives (anarchists, communists and cultural Marxists), including Obama and Hillary, are disciples of Alinsky and live and act out his word.
First, no matter what you believe it is important to know what Alinsky believed, and we are able to glimpse it perfectly from the dedication in his book.
Here it is in his own words:
“Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins — or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”
Those engaging in and supporting these methods attempt to rationalize and justify the book and its tactics, while in fact they further indict it and open a window into our seeing their necessarily abandoning truth and reality. They claim it isn’t as much an endorsement of Lucifer as it is stipulating the need to abandon all ethical and moral standards in reaching their goal (any and all means are justified by reaching their end.)
They proudly declare these tactics are their way to overthrowing the establishment, and our current state of degeneration proves it succeeded many years ago. It now having become the establishment and at this point has absolute power over information and government. In such a case, they have become as have all others of their ilk before them, the administrators of injustice, in a constant and continuing state of degeneration, and as necessity are the mortal enemies of the truth.
They become what they now accuse others of being (and so goes their reversed reality – were evil is good, good is evil, the lie is truth and truth is a lie.)
They become the fascists they claim they hate as they wield their power without any ethical or moral self-restraint. Here again is a quote from another such regime, which was able in this same deluded state able to rationalize any wrong by justifying it as a necessary means for the greater good/end.
Joseph Goebbels: “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.”
Here again are the Alinsky rules. In reading them we see and understand the tactics now being played out before our eyes and being employed against those of us who now see what even Gobbles knew was the end come when the deception was uncovered – never to be covered again. They are employing the same tactics, their foundational principles, and their new normal of irrational thinking, now chained to it and their own destruction, they with action further expose what we have realized. Know their deception and understand they aren’t in any way morally or ethically bound to truth, and have no problem labeling it as evil and their lies a good – as they set the world ablaze.
The rules as found at Wikipedia:
1. “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood.
2. “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.
3. “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.
4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.
5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.
6. “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.
7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news.
8. “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.
10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.” It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.
11. “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.
12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.
13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.
This takes us to their melt-down, now set in motion toward full tantrum, and their eventually self-inflicting their own melting away. This takes us to the original book of tactics, the one opposite everything unethical and immortal. It is the standard against which Lucifer and these his followers have revolted. (Doing so even knowing they can’t overcome the laws of nature and nature’ God. As Alinsky said, they would rather rule in hell, than be contented with heaven [and in doing take as many with them as they are able.] They don’t understand hell is a solitary cell where you are alone with yourself, trapped in your own evil mind, never able to escape its fires.)
The Word of God speaks of this time in 2 Peter 3 and tells of the fires that burn in the earth, caused by these and other corrupted principles humanity uses as the basis for making it choices and its policy. These are wielded by those in power as they set the hordes in motion against all opposition. Now as with all such corrupted powers they will choose mutual destruction rather than relinquishing what they have gained control over [all the world.]
2 Peter 3 tells of the “elements” melting as the fires burn on the earth, and in its seasts of power [heaven as the high places of power.] It tells of our seeking a new heaven and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness (equity and truth.) We have many times discussed the Greek word Peter uses and is translated “elements.” It is stoicheion, meaning an orderly arrangement, and is also translated principles and rudiments. When it is rendered as principle it is telling of the first principles of the oracles of God, and when as rudiment it is telling of the rudiments of the world that have keep man in bondage [under the darkness these flawed and corrupted principles have produced and always will produce.]
The fire that melt these corrupted elements (stoicheion) are the fire they themselves have caused in the earth. This, as we now clearly see, has come from the words and incitement of those now welding their power to agitate the mind-dead masses they control with their spells (words of deception meant to manipulate others into doing the will of the one speaking.)
The word of God tells us clearly in Hebrew 12 of God sending his word to correct this corrupted thinking. This contrast of His light against the darkness, as the serpent/rod of Moses eating the serpents of the Egyptian magicians, is as a back fire that confront their fires of corruption. This is why after it speaks of the correction, it tells of the words heard that shakes the corruption out of the world, and ends saying, “Our God is a consuming fire.”
This is the end we have come to. The question is, for the people of this nation and the world, will you come out of these fires of tribulation or be consumed by them?
2 Peter 3
1 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
2 That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the LORD and Savior:
3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the Word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water [this word,] perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition [perishing] of ungodly men.
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the LORD as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 The LORD is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the LORD will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that you look for such things, be diligent that you may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
15 And account that the longsuffering of our LORD is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him has written unto you;
16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
17 You therefore, beloved, seeing you know these things before, beware lest you also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness.
18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen
Hebrews 12
1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest you be wearied and faint in your minds.
4 You have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks unto you as unto children, My son, despise not you the disciplining of the LORD, nor faint when you are rebuked of him:
6 For whom the LORD loves he corrects, and disciplines (scourges) every son whom he receives.
7 If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father corrects not?
8 But if you be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are you illegitimate, and not sons.
9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10 For they truly for a few days correct us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
11 Now no discipline for the present seems to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yields the peace-able fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the LORD:
15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
17 For you know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
18 For you are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard demanded that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
22 But you are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaks better things than that of Abel.
25 See that you refuse not him that speaks. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speak from heaven:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he has promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
