Defund the Police

 “In the West, the same formula has been operative for decades: the police kill a young person from a marginalized community; the youth of this community rise up; they destroy a few things and clash with the police; they are arrested. The atmosphere reverts to a kind of precarious tranquillity, until the police decide to murder someone again” 

Identity and representation are key in the way that the Left (in this case Marco D’Eramo in the New Left Review) proposes things go down in the world.  Note that there is the use of identity “youth”  “community” “marginalized” this is the way the Left represents riots or protests, whichever, they refer to the 2020’s and 2022’s public demonstrations developed.  Of course the fight over what was really happening broke-out in representations.  Repeated clips on the one side of young people nonviolently protesting and repeated clips of violent rioting presented by the other side.

Note that “the police” as a presumed singular identity “decides” to kill, as though all police everywhere made a precise and single decision to kill. In fact police kill people all the time and police are killed by people all the time. But the Leftist media always broadcasts the most horrific racist or other derogatory action by authorities.  Really what the protestors where rioting/protesting about was some nebulous entity that is violent toward the disenfranchised, that the police, some authority have smashed the breath out of; this did occur, but this kind of death is (regardless of identity) investigated from within communities and find all kinds of victims and all kinds of perpetrators.   

D’Eramo couches their rhetoric in identity and representation, a la Leftist propaganda.  Sure the Right has its representations of identified persons as well, i.e. of a lame brained leader.  But, in the end “the police” everywhere do not decide as a singular entity to murder someone.  Death and violence are everywhere, sick world.  Better yet, watch your TV and movies, and get your staple, as well. You are what you watch, as the argument about that has been going on for so many years.

Let's spread MISINFORMATION

According to the government 2  + 2 = 5  and Math is racist. Let’s spread the Truth, which is misinformation.  Let’s spread misinformation all over the place, in every household, community, city, state, and nation(s).  We will not cave on the matter of Truth, no matter how much they say 2 + 2 = 5. No matter what the Party tried to press upon the mind of Winston Smith (in George Orwell’s “1984”), Smith would not succumb, until the end.  For us we will not succumb to the lies, i.e. truth is lies; math is injustice; truth is unjust and other opposites that are flipped on their heads, and are made into the real lies that they are feeding the world.  The Left is relentlessly programming young children, to young adults, to you. Media process has you under its spell.  Stop watching TV and movies, please.  You will find only lies there.  So let’s spread misinformation, while the government is calling truth to be lies. Government and media are vacuous ...

21st century prophecies

In 21 Lessons for the 21 st Century , the GREAT prophet spoke, saying mockingly, “After all, we are God’s nation, so the argument goes, so what’s good for our nation is pleasing to God.  There certainly are religious sages who reject nationalist excesses and adopt far more universal visions. Unfortunately, such sages don’t wield much political power these days” uttering the excellent, profound, and provocative words, “the handmaid of nationalism is religion” as well, “Religions, rites, and rituals will remain important as long as the power of humankind rests on mass cooperation and as long as mass cooperation rests on belief in shared fiction” and “past experiences of the whole of humanity, will become less reliable guides” “The Zionist story fails to ascribe any meaning to Chinese Empires, to the tribes of New Guinea, and to the Andromeda galaxy, as well as to the countless eons that passed before the existence of Moses, Abraham, and the evolution of the apes” and “eternity is at...

Consider if you will . . . . . . .

Have you wondered why the Left wants to rid us of one nation under God?  It is not only God they want to eliminate; they intend to destroy the idea of “nation.” This is done through praise of everything but nation.  Homi K Bhabha, in The Location of Culture says that he is not challenging only nationalism, but the historical certainty he wishes to distort and destroy, as well. So Bhabha praise immigrant as migrant and criminal as statistic. The criminal is seen as one who awaits release into the nation. Bhabha writes, “I have lived that moment of the scattering of the people that in other times and other places, in the nations of others, becomes a time of gathering. Gatherings of exiles and emigres and refugees; gathering on the edge of 'foreign' cultures . . . the gathering of people in the diaspora: indentured, migrant, interned; the gathering of incriminatory statistics”  “nation fills the void left by the uprooting of communities and kin”  If you want to get a f...
