Thoughts Of The Day

If Petain hadn't collaborated with the Germans, he'd be be looked upon as hero today.  But he did collaborate.  As a result, Petain is properly looked upon as a Traitor.

Who else is corroborating?  The Left with the proponents of Islamic militarism.

Of course a Collectivist’s going to have a problem with selfishness.  It's not just an issue of tax policy.  Before one can say, ‘this is wrong, I won't do it’, one has to say ‘I’.
 
Conscience is the expression of the ego in the moral realm.  To make a moral judgment and to act on it are basically selfish acts.  It’s the self that sees through its own eyes and acts on its own knowledge of right and wrong.  Or to put it another way, you can't really be selfish if you can't live with yourself.  Rational Selfishness as Ayn Rand tried to define and advocate was limited to acts which benefited one's self but caused no affirmative harm or inflicted a cost on another person.

Narcissism on the other hand, especially in the political realm, isn’t concerned with the injuries and burdens inflicted on other people.  In fact, the more destructive the consequences of obedience to those who obey the narcissist, the better.  Human sacrifice with beating hearts cut out and victims flayed alive, that's great, millions worked to death in slave labor camps in Siberia, that's better, as far as the narcissist is concerned. 

Who Is The Enemy?

On Sunday, Nov 27, 1994, I found the following item on the talk.politics.guns newsgroup:



The New Enemy

"Parameters", the journal of the Army War College, has published an article by a Maj. Ralph Peters which identifies the next "enemy" of the "Politicized" Bill/Hillary Clinton military as U.S. Patriots, defined as the "Warrior Class". Patriots are described as "Erratic Primitives of Shifting Allegiances, Habitated to Violence with no stake in Civil Order".

And I posted the following response:

Civil Order as understood by adherents of the Platonic/Hegelian/Marxist/Nazi collectivist ("progressive," "caring," etc.) philosophical tradition is a social state in which we, the hominid livestock, live as directed by our self appointed masters.

The bipedal cattle who do not obey are visited by the "Guardians"/SS/ATF or other such creatures.

Civil Order in the real world as described by Aristotle and Ayn Rand is the societal condition in which we, the humans, are free to live by our own judgement of the facts of reality for our own purposes, without being put upon by thugs and tyrants.

The enemies of true civil order will always try as Orwell warned us, "...to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable," as had happened at Waco. When we accept the definitions given by our enemies, we lose. For the Clintons and their collaborators to call us "Erratic Primitives," is nothing less than a Nazi style smear.

In the real world we must define or be defined.

The Clintons and the other self styled "progressives" have tried, through their so called "health reform" and other such actions, to force us into a state of dependency and servitude. To turn the United States of America, the greatest nation on this planet into a vast slave labor camp. These are not the actions of the defenders of "civil order." These are attacks on civilization and Mankind as such.

We must see reality for what it is, things for what they are, and people for who they are. We, the defenders of American Civilization, must show our families, friends, and neighbors that we are who we are, and that our enemies are what they are.

Socialism is slavery and socialists are slavers. And as far as I am concerned, all slavers, regardless of what auditory garbage they put forth as an excuse, are enemies of Mankind fit only for extermination.

What are your questions on this block of instruction?

John McCain, the chef d'merde from Arizona is giving consideration (obviously not actual thought) to standing for reelection to the senate in 2016. He would be 80 years old.

I have a suggestion Mr. McCain, drop dead already.
