During the last two hundred years or so, there has been a massive transference of belief. We have gone from being a God-fearing people living under the assumption that the aristocracy and hierarchy is the natural order of things, over to believing in equal rights and democracy, but then back again to the same principle of monocracy.
The awakening that came with the industrial revolution and capitalism gave us both the means to produce enough for all humans and the morality of individual freedom. But out of the golden age of humankind we slowly, but surely, headed back to those structures of collectivism and autocracy we almost, for a brief moment, had left behind.
The power structure today has other names and within resides other titles, but the inherent evil as well as the strive for power, control and money is the same. The old monarchs started giant building projects to keep the populace with jobs, give people a sense of pride and to fulfill some phallic dream of that particular ruler. Today’s monarchs do the exact same thing, only now disguised under the “consent” of the people whom have voted, directly or indirectly, for that particular project.
Whereas a king would have built an opera openly for the court and elitists, today’s elected rulers also build similar structures while subsidizing the price slightly with the notion that the common man might be let in. However, clothing rules, high unemployment and the social structure makes the same elitists and elected officials (the court) the main visitors, but to a lower price since “everyone” is paying for it.
In every civilization, there is a very thin upper branch of elitists who are concerned with questions of morality, truth, justice, and the divine plan. In other words, why we exist and who is supposed to do what to whom in order to gain the perfect society. Historically, such “thinkers” have tended to believe these ultimate and conjured up ethical values have a claim on every man. ‘For the common good’ – is today the normal phrased used to protect this elitist way of thinking. However slim the top dogs group is, they are always accompanied with a tail of followers that support and argue for the agenda trickling down. Ruling all of them are politicians or the monarch. Loosely tied to this larger group of top elitists and elitist-wannabees are another bunch of people whom, to an large degree, is dependent on them in order to gain the upper hand in different areas such as business or religion. All in all, this entire cluster of elitists, magnates and “thinkers” make up the horde of people I usually entitle ‘the enemy class’.
This ‘class’ is consistent of those that not only sit on much of the power, but also are very dependent of each other. Politicians need journalists to write about their projects and well-meaning programs, journalists need politicians to gain more readers or trick more viewers to tune in at evening. Industry leaders need subsidized land to build factories on in addition to many other things politicians can hand them, courtesy of tax money. Politicians on the other hand need more jobs they can claim their little agreement with the magnate in question produced and rubbing elbows with other high and mighty is a good way of assure their own future if they chose (or get forced) to leave politics. All the “thinkers” i.e. university lecturers, story-tellers, philosophers, economists and so forth are often enough employed by government or the magnates which any monkey can figure out makes them accomplices. The strings in-between are many more, for instance marriage to secure titles, money and peace are as common today as back in the middle ages, and there are many more, but to write about all of those would take entire books to unravel.
What people need to understand about this little expose into the power elite structure is three things:
1) The conspiracists have it right, at least to a point.
The power elitists exist and they do have an agenda, they do conspire to gain benefits, and they a lot to lose when found out. However, this does not really mean it’s always a master plan behind it; it’s more how the structure is built. This power in the hands of our rulers comes with the system and so does the means to contain and keep that power.
2) Keeping the Authority.
These people, although, as said, not really deliberately planning for it, will always use all their authority to keep the system as it is. This means that it does not matter if the rulers happen to be left or right in politics, it does not matter who is Prime Mentalist or which news station is reporting what, the status que is kept in any case.
3) The ones who really are to blame are the voters.
This because most voters buy the sales-pitch the elitists masterfully put together. Vote right and you get lower taxes and lower benefits, the opposite if you vote left, but what always stays the same is the power structure. And over time all parties becomes state-lovers, or rather power-lovers. A party needs to stay in power to have power consequently all political parties need to make good use of the power the voters so willingly hands them.
In conclusion you are fooled. Fooled to believe your vote matters, it doesn’t. Fooled to believe it matters what face is selling you the lies. It may be a black man, a Hispanic woman or a rich white guy, it don’t matter. Who sits in office only affects those closest to power and there may be a prestige thing, but for regular Joe’s, it hardly has any impact. You are also fooled into believing in things like religion, war on drugs, war on terror or that equality only can be created through and off the governments say so.
They have even managed to convince people that monitoring and controlling the internet will save children from being molested or that hunting down youngsters downloading movies is a way of saving business. The lies being told from the enemy class is very often simple to see and understand, which means they need to be covertly sold through notions of solidarity, justice and rights-issues. There isn’t a single government project that cannot be defended with reasons of “saving the poor” or “helping the elderly”, and you, the voters buy it all.
In the broadest meaning of the word “socialism” that is the road we are on, but more accurately it’s a lighter form of fascism. Big corporations mixed with power seeking politicians and all their friends in-twined within an oligarchy aimed to contain and keep the power is very close to the economic model of fascism. So all that’s really needed is that racial and nationalistic vein, and, of course, you can find lots of that too. Just stop and think about it for a moment, what are all politicians really saying all the time? It’s us against them is what they are saying. And it doesn’t need to be as obvious as white against black or Arians against Jews; it can be females against males, one school against the other or even your neighbor against you. And nationalism is always present in one form or the other.
It’s like every politician wants to be advocating capitalism, but with large doses of socialism injected now and again, everything designed to keep the power structure intact.
And how do they manage to keep it all together? With the help of FEAR.
Fear is the main driving force behind everything you let them do to you. And the government is always the solution. There are pedophiles online? Government to the rescue. Red Bull may or may not cause problems? Let's bann it. You cannot find a job? Government can fix that. Terrorist attack? The government can throw some bombs around and create new laws to make you safe. The economy crashing? The government has an endless supply of money to save us all. Too many Muslims in your town living on benefits? Vote for me, I’ll stop them at the border. And aren’t Muslims all fanatics wanting to bomb you? Let’s build a mosque for them showing our understanding at the same time we complain about their child-brides and bomb their native countries. How about those industry leaders? Aren’t they rich enough and keep making all people unemployed? Let’s give them free stuff, cut their taxes and help them out at the same time as we complain about them to the media.
Politicians play Pied Piper to the masses. And people see no danger in following, thinking only to receive “free” goodies from the State. Always. Forever. The never ending supply of free stuff handing down to us from above is celebrated by media as “progressive”, big business is jumping along singing to the tune and everything is sold with pink shimmering clouds of happiness while the alternatives are painted black and the scare-mongering is drummed out by “thinkers” and journalists. All the while we are all headed for that abyss up ahead, cheerfully we dance closer and closer. Some people fall over, another economic crash happens, another terrorist attack hits, but we continue to swallow the lies, even cheering our elitists on while more people drop down towards their doom.
Can we stop?
Do we want to stop?
If you really ask those kinds of questions and really answer them truthfully, the answer is always NO. This is the background reason, the main foundation and the continuous predicament that gave us the great depression, both world wars and all the other stupidities since then. This is also the main reason why we are in a recession and why there will continue to be recessions and why it will only keep getting worse and worse.
Sometimes we will take one or two steps in another direction, but that’s only temporarily.
How many of you can really claim to be free today? How many rights do you really have that no one can take away from you? I cannot think of a single one, so, in essence we are mindless drones at best, pure slaves willing to die at the hands of the enemy class at worse.

ReplyDeleteActually no, this headline is as I intended it to be. I thought it was a bit funny and also have a point to itself. Part III will have a slightly different headline, but II will have the same.
ReplyDeleteThis was actually a very good, thoughtful and humourus piece. Nicely written. The example with the subsidized Opera houses was very good and made me think. We, sort of, have one here locally. For us, this was definately a case where the politicians had self-interest to let the taxpayers pay for it all, while the pricing is kept rather high (thus excluding most citizens previously financing this building).
ReplyDeleteI tend to disagree with you slightly as I don't draw the line quite as short as you do regarding what the elites motives and their actions. While most upper elite conspire and collaborate with profit in their minds there are signs (more than a few) that some of them have rather more elaborate motives for their actions. For the one who has all the money he/she wants and more, what's left to pursue - well you'd have to get even further and get creative to the almost bizarre. One of the motivations left is pure powerhunger. Many has been bitten by this bug, for example Dick Cheney (as told by past coworkers and business partners). Other examples from this is Rockefeller and most Royalty.
But there is also an even darker more sinister (dare I say satanic) tone to it. Many of the elite (as witnessed by people in various capacity) seems to think that it is a challange (or competition) of sorts to see what they can blatantly get away with. As an example I'm thinking of the drug wars (like Iran Contras where they turned Bush Sr into president shortly after he was caught overseeing and coordinating the biggest drug scandal in american politics). They just reigned the newsmedia in and Bush stopped answering questions about the Iran-Contras-scandal and that was that - BOOM and Bush Sr is da Prez!. Blatantly open and with total disregard for everything. Also the false flag operations like the made up reasons for the Tonkin Gulf resolution which started the US war in Vietnam, or the made up reasons that led to US invading Iraq. And this is only in recent memory (I can think of a few more). Blatant and open lies with so sinister outcome that you have to be a pure sadomasochist (or satanist) to enjoy seeing it put into work. Truly for the bizarre-minded and in my mind trancends money and power just by the way it came to be.
Being responsible for both the problem and the solution, while hypnotizing the masses, apparently gives the elite incredible satisfaction. Also, put into context, some of these people are very obsessed with mysticism and the power in symbolism (some aren't of course). If the events are reinforced and underlined by your sinister religion or occult practices, the events unfolding makes an even stronger impact on you. That is the ultimate powertrip or kinky dark S/M bizarre moment if you will. That behaviour goes beyond normal motivations and is sick. Some describes it plainly as satanic but I'd describe it more as a sort of irrational powertrip of negativism for the sick.
There is long since known in Psychology a concept which involves an abberation (disorder in peoples mental state) in the the elite where their opinion of people (perception of how people are, their role and their value) differs hugely from what the basic population thinks. The elite is so few and would not entertain themselves to be studied and analysed and then hung out to dry so a more thorough study have not been completed yet. If the working thesis is that these people believe in an 'Übermensch', the study will of course not be let to continue. It is the very people that are studied that can (and have) shut this investigation off. The people, that I read, who tried to test this fairly adequately well established thesis, found themselves lucked out.
ReplyDeleteIt's also well documented that many of the elite are bisexual or explorative sexual experimenters. This concept is also often used as a way by the current power elite to corrupt young, future prominent people from the start. That way you get early leverage and influence. Bush Sr had another female lover while openly married to Barbara Bush, Bush Jr was sexually active with a steady-going boyfriend while in college (if I remember correctly) and Obama is Bisexual (by male prostitute witness testimony). How can these be christian church-going men in good standing??? To be able to get away with these relatively blatant taboos you have to either be totally ignorant (Bush Jr) or very dark minded (the rest). Since they're concurrently heavily involved with christian faith, the only term I find suited for this is 'satanical'. The reasons for their overall behaviour and actions cannot be explained with money and corruption because it goes deeper than that (in my mind).

I love your blog. Thanks for taking the time to make it a worthwhile read every time!

ReplyDeleteSure there are other incentives than money; both you and I mention power. There can also be philanthropy or philosophical reasons, which I also mention. However, the structure and the way they work do not change. And the interaction gets even more obvious. I can write several books on the subject, but that takes too long time. This is a blog post and as such the reasoning needs to be kept down a wee bit.
Those lies you talk about are just means towards the end. Also here you can find lots of other examples. Everything from daycare to starting a war can be a part of the general “plot”.
To a certain extent, however, you complement my writings. I have written several similar things before but this post have a slightly different agenda and therefore I left several things out.
You're right, I should have kept it shorter. I should get my own blog instead of hijacking yours with that long piece. I wrote it rather quickly in the morning hours before sleep and did not judge it much. This is what I meant and should have written; I find a difference between a kid inconspicuously hiding, stealing candy and another one wanting as big as a crowd as possible while smirking at them doing it. That second child has a severe attitude problem at best, or mental disorder or at worst is pure evil. That is the difference I find in fractions of the elite. That is why I went into Psychology and Religion a bit. Money and power seems not to be enough to satisfy them anymore. Thanks for the reply and the blog in general.

Nah, that’s okay. I was excusing myself. Write how long you want, as long as it is kept to the topic.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are right, there are differences. But what you mention with the “kids” is not really applicable. The second one wanting a crowd is the embodiment of our enemies and always steal behind the curtain, that’s the point and that’s how they can hide their stealing. This can be done through several ways; either they steal through taxation or through different programs. But it can also be done through banking or financial system. Always disguised in one way or the other. The sneaky thief on the other hand is the normal sort of criminal that we usually put in jail.
And again, thank you for the praise. I do love folk trashing me and telling me I’m a idiot, kind of prove my point, but it is always nice to meet another one with brain and/or someone that appreciate my ramblings.
