Gaslights and Lies of the 5th Generation
Evolving in to Blood and Bullets of the 4th Generation.
My dear readers, I am going to warn you up front that this week’s missive will probably be more upsetting than the average post. This week, we are going to discuss violence and its role historically in the rise of tyranny. I will also endeavor to expose the gaslighting intended to keep all the normal people unengaged and disinterested. Consider this a situation report for our on-going civil war that is rapidly shifting from 5th to 4th generational. We are, in fact, seeing a playbook being ran in America that has been used time and time again throughout history to bring nations under the yolk of tyranny, and the only way to stop it is to get the majority to pay attention and become interested. The fact is, during the Soviet Revolution, the Nazi rise to power, The Khmer Rouge, and as countless other tyrannical regimes took power, the majority of the population had been distracted until it was over. So, I write and try to equip you to bring the light of truth to the regular people.
I will start by pointing out that socialism\communism cannot exist on a national scale without also being fascists, and the strict government controls on industry required of fascism make any differences to socialism\communism largely semantic. First, let us look at the definitions of the two words:
fascism
1. often Fascism (here)
a. A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.
b. A political philosophy or movement based on or advocating such a system of government.
2. Oppressive, dictatorial control.
socialism (here)
1. Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.
2. The stage in Marxist-Leninist theory intermediate between capitalism and communism, in which the means of production are collectively owned but a completely classless society has not yet been achieved.
On paper they look very different but in practice they are not, looking at examples throughout history, comparing key aspects of fascism to practical socialism\communism. I think you will agree.
For instance, Nationalism (here):
1. Devotion, especially excessive or undiscriminating devotion, to the interests or culture of a particular nation-state.
2. The belief that nations will benefit from acting independently rather than collectively, emphasizing national rather than international goals.
3. The belief that a particular cultural or ethnic group constitutes a distinct people deserving of political self-determination.
In practice, Chairman Mao Tsetung describes the communist man as follows (here):
“At no time and in no circumstances should a Communist place his personal interests first; he should subordinate to the interests of the nation and the masses. Hence selfishness, slacking, corruption, seeking the limelight are most contemptible, while ... working with all one’s energy, whole hearted devotion to public duty, and quiet hard work will command respect.” Hence, communists are expected to work diligently and thoughtfully in order to ensure he or she provides the most benefit to society. As a result, any worker in the computer field is expected to manufacture computer products without the wish for acknowledgment or excessive monetary reward.”
This is just an echo of the ideal of the New Communist Man spoken of by Trotsky, Guevera, and others (here). This idea of ‘the state above self’, that is present in the writings of every major communist thinker, strikes me as a perfect fit at least to the first definition of nationalism (If we are being honest it is the only one that is kind of bad. Thinking your country should be self-reliant and thinking your people should be free to govern themselves are not fundamentally bad). So far as the strict control of industry required by fascism, I think that bar is met by the total government control of industry found in all socialist and communist societies. For communism to work, it is always single party, it always violently suppresses opposition, and all communist countries persecute people based on race, religion, or sexuality (here, here, here, here, here, here, and here).
Lastly, fascist states are also autocratic, but if we look so are communist states, as the head of the party always has the power of a dictator (here and here).
It doesn’t matter if you look to Cambodia, Cuba, USSR, China, or any other communist\socialist nation. They are all also fascist and if we look at the two real examples of fascist nations, Nazi Germany and Mussolini’s Italy, it becomes clear that they also seized the means of production and centrally planned the economies of their nations. So, while it may be theoretically possible for the two systems to exists as their own thing, I do not believe it has ever happened in history to this point or that it could happen. It would require the majority of people to willingly give up what they could achieve for themselves in exchange for a minimum that would be provided for them without also reducing their effort to almost nothing. In truth, the pilgrims were the poster children for why socialism fails (here). Fortunately, they were smart enough to abandon the system rather than try to make it work through force.
If you still think there is any practical difference between fascism and communism, please comment and explain it to me, as I don’t see one. The other thing they have in common is how they came to power and right now in our country we are seeing a textbook communist/fascist national takeover in progress. The thought had crossed my mind before, but it all crystalized in the last few days. The steps for communist\fascist revolution are as follows:
Steps to communism have been proposed as follows:
1. Healthcare – control healthcare and you control the people.
From Medicaid to Obama Care, the push has been for more and more government control.
2. Poverty – Increase the poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you provide everything for them to live.
Since the advent of the Welfare system in 1964, the trend in poverty reduction seen in the 40 years leading up to that point has been reversed especially in minority communities (here and here).
3. Debt – Increase the debt level to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes and this will produce more poverty.
Ah.. yes, the consumer economy that developed after WWII, shifting from the production economy that existed prior to that point as Keynesian economic theory enveloped our nation (here and here). Most people are slaves to what they owe.
4. Gun control – Remove the ability to defend themselves from government. That way you are able to create a police state.
I do not feel this one needs clarification, watch 10 minutes of any mainstream news source and you will hear the nonsense.
5. Welfare – Take control of every aspect (food, housing, income) of their lives because that will make them fully dependent on the government.
Since the 1960s, entire swaths of the US population are completely dependent on government aid, and the majority of people in America are now at least partially dependent (here and here).
6. Education – Take control of what people read and listen to and take control of what children learn in school.
This is why elements of society want to push intersectionality and Critical Race Theory (just revamped Communist Critical Theory) into schools (here). That is why they want adult sex performers and books that show graphic sex acts to be made available to children in K-6, as a means of severing parental control of their children (here).
7. Religion – Remove belief in God from the government and schools because the people need to believe in only the government knowing what is best for the people.
Don’t think it is as much religion as it is social moral standards that in most cultures are exemplified by religion. This is where everything is relative, like reality defying ideals of selective gender, individual truth, and the sliding expectations of equity over equality. Destroying ethical norms is the only way you get people to consent to concentration camps, killing fields, and death marches.
8. Class warfare – Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. Eliminate the middle class.
How often have we heard of the evil 1% that don’t pay their fair share, while they pay 40% of all taxes, or the top 5% that are greedy and only pay 75% of all taxes (here)? One of communism’s most potent tools is also one of its biggest flaws. You can use people’s envy and greed to demonize others, but you can’t remove it to make perfect New Communist Men.
Steps to Fascism have been proposed as follows:
1. Control the press.
It is clear that not only do we have government controlled press but also social media to spread that press around (here, here, and here).
2. Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy.
We have terrorists. The middle eastern kind got us the Patriot Act, and now we have the domestic kind but it isn’t the people actually committing acts of terror. As a matter of fact, it seems we have our very own Reichstag Fire in January 6th, as more and more evidence comes to light. However, it has done wonders for creating the myth of right-wing violence (here, here, here, and here).
3. Create a gulag.
First we had Guantanamo Bay, where we held American and foreign citizens without due process, and now we have the hell-hole (worse than Guantanamo) of DC prison facilities (here and here).
4. Develop a thug caste.
Antifa and BLM, essentially brown shirts and goons squads (here and here).
5. Set up an internal surveillance system.
See the Patriot Act, Military Commissions Act, and the abortion that is the RESTRICT Act (here, here, and here).
6. Harass citizens’ groups.
Speakers, organizations, and churches are frequently targeted by mobs that have no fear of prosecution (here, here, and here).
7. Engage in arbitrary detention and release.
If you have the wrong politics, you get the book thrown at you for the most minor offences, but if you have the right politics, murder is acceptable (here and here).
8. Target key individuals.
Trump. I really don’t need to say more, but also reporters that expose the filth (here and here).
9. Dissent equals treason.
Look at the rhetoric. If you are not on board with anything the government plans, you are the enemy, not a citizen with different opinion (here and here).
10. Suspend the rule of law.
Obama killed US citizens without due process, Bush and Obama both used and defended torture, and Biden has kept thousands in custody for misdemeanors while withholding exculpatory evidence (here, here, here, and here).
Both lists are theoretical but both of them hit home, have historical examples from Fascist\Communist revolutions, and even if the shift isn’t intentional (I think it is.), they absolutely lead down the road to an Authoritarian Death Cult (Will be used as the catchall for communism\fascism, as they are the same thing in practice). The good news is this is a fringe group. The bad news is they are motivated and the silence of the productive majority, who are too busy to pay attention, lets them appear to be a majority at best and at worst they claim the silent folks are with them even when they are not. Unfortunately, this leads to businesses and media shifting to satisfy the apparent majority. This shifting is a large part of the cultural decay we are seeing and unfortunately, politics follows culture.
Some companies seem to be waking up, since all efforts to get woke commercially lead to failure and dollars spent seem to indicate that the ravening woke horde is a minority, as the majority of people are not interested in woke products and it actually turns them off to it. Then, there are the companies that hire top managers and staff based on woke criteria, rather than by strictly merit-based standards, and do poorly as a result (here, here, here, and here). Unfortunately, the well has been poisoned and there is political pressure now to remain woke, even in the face of financial ruin.
While political cartoons still exist, they have, to some degree and a large one with people 40 and under, been supplanted by the meme and in many ways these are weapons of the 5th generational war. They are frequently used to defend the indefensible by erecting strawmen. I present this example I recently captured out of the wild. That is specifically intended to gaslight the uncritical or distracted into not caring about Drag performances for toddlers.
First, Drag refers to a very specific form of adult entertainment with sexual overtones and none of these are Drag. The closest might be Dr. Frank 'N' Furter from Rocky Horror and second, none of that was specifically targeted at children and even the ones kids might have been reasonably expected to see had a comedy-based reason, that was totally non-sexual, for being dressed as a woman. This is not at all the same as Drag shows for kids or Drag queen story hours (here and here) that are clearly grooming events.
Sadly, it is through memes like that most people are informed about culture so they disregard and ignore what is really happening.
‘Oh, none of those are bad, so why are folks upset? Now back to sleep…”
This has led us to the point where things are coming to a head, and the battle lines are so strange they couldn’t be fiction. In their attempt to destroy cultural moral norms, the Authoritarian Death Cult (ADC) went after children, and in large swaths of the country people said no. Laws are being or have passed prohibiting the exposure of small children to graphic sexual content and the performance of irreversible surgical or chemical alteration of children’s bodies. In response, the ADC resorts to real actual violence where people, including small children, are killed. Then, they blame the victims for making them do it (here, here, here, and here). Then, they proceed to threaten more violence if their demands are not met to fight against transphobia (By the way, that is textbook terrorism). Now, transphobia isn’t the fear of trans people like you might think. The mortal sin against the Church of Woke that is transphobia is any opposition to any ideal of the transexual movement. If you are a straight guy who isn’t interested in dating a trans woman (was once a man and may still have a dick), you are a transphobe. If you oppose preforming permanent medical procedures on children, then you are a transphobe. I suppose by that logic if you oppose cutting of a child’s leg and poking their eye out because they claim to be a pirate, you are pirate-phobic. Especially with the growing number of children converted at young ages having serious issues trying to detransition and knowing they will never live normal lives again, it is utterly irresponsible to allow minors to make life-altering decisions like that. This is especially true when, in many cases, it appears to be due to parental pressure in some form of Woke Munchausen by proxy (here, here, and here). Even Jazz Jennings, the poster child for early transition, is having regrets (here).
So now, the ADC is calling preventing child medical transition, preventing sex performers access to children, and banning hyper-sexualized content including graphic depictions of sex acts and teaching second graders how to use butt plugs and dildos (here) violence taut amount to genocide (here, here, here, and here). Most people, when presented with actual facts, think these measures to protect children are reasonable and if a child receives counseling and still wants to transition after the age of 18, no one is stopping them. However, with any topic, the ADC downplays the actual issues with straw men and lies.
This is on top of the ongoing political attacks and assassinations of conservative political figures (here, here, and here), and the fact that calls for violence against ideas the ADC doesn’t like are increasing (here, here, and here) from political, educational, and social influencers.
Since we are rational and the good guys, we can’t initiate actual violence, but we can be aware that we are under threat. We can speak up, counter memes, present facts, and show examples to those on the fence. We can share good information, we must be armed, and we must train because more and more we may have to defend ourselves, family, or others from the ADC, as they escalate to a full on 4th generational civil war. we Must do these things even if it threatens our jobs, lives, or freedom because if we don’t our children will be slaves to the ADC.
Proverbs 3:25-26
Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, for the LORD will be at your side and will keep your foot from being snared.
God Bless you!
