Anniversary

 On this day in 1978 another experiment in socialism failed.

Today's the anniversary of the Murder of Congressman Leo Ryan and the other deaths in what became known as the Jonestown Massacre.  Of course in order to create Jonestown the Rev. Jim Jones, as a self-styled Apostolic Socialist, had to totally ignore the historic one hundred percent failure rate of voluntary socialist communities.  In 1978 The People's Temple was a cult focused on the personality of Jim Jones  and his doctrine of Apostolic Socialism.  Which offered eternal salvation as a trade for self subjugation to the leader.  With this social-political premise the terminal failure of their colony was effectively ordained.   There're limits to what one can do in good faith.  The phrase, "drink the Kool-Aid", which commonly meant to participate in a mass suicide originated at this time.

Idiot Of The Day

John Podesta, an adviser to The Big Zero, said the following:

"They need to focus on executive action given that they are facing a second term against a cult worthy of Jonestown in charge of one of the houses of Congress,"

What is wrong with this mental picture?

In 1978 The People's Temple  was  a cult focused on the personality of Jim Jones  and his doctrine of Apostolic Socialism.  Which offered eternal salvation as a trade for self subjugation to the leader.  With this social-political premise the terminal failure of their colony was effectively ordained.  On the other hand the Grumpy Old Party, on the days they actually do their jobs, stands against the leadership cult of The Big Zero and the conversion of our nation into a fully subjugated collective.

Those who cannot properly identify and communicate the clear facts of reality have no place in government or outside of a mental hospital.
