Holy Hippies
They get away with things in comedy shows that are funny precisely because they hit on something that everybody notices but nobody dares to say. On Family Guy, Death finally got a date and, as in the movie “10,” his infatuation with the girl’s physical beauty collapsed the first time she opened her mouth:
GIRL: “Only humans make war.”
DEATH: “What are you talking about? Animals kill each other all the time.”
GIRL: “Not with nuclear arms. You can’t hug your children with nuclear arms.”
DEATH: “Oh, for God’s sake!”
This is funny for two reasons. First, nobody has ever heard a hippie say ANYTHING. When I refer to saying anything, I am not referring to emitting vocal sounds. A parrot talks but he never really SAYS anything. If you are masochistic, you could listen to an hour’s diatribe from an old hippie of yesterday, but if you wait for him to say anything original or even interesting you will wait till Judgment Day.
The reason this was demonstrated in a comedy is because everybody knows it but nobody can SAY it. Those two facts made it funny.
Remember that our established religion is Political Correctness. Imagine a gathering of devout Catholics at a university. The name “Dracula” is mentioned and one elderly nun crosses herself. Not one good Catholic there is going to laugh at her, however superstitious the gesture strikes them. It is sign of naïve Faith, and no one in a church or a seminary laughs at a sincere expression of the Faith.
By exactly the same token, no one at a university, NO ONE is allowed to LAUGH at a hippie. He is reciting the words of the Faith. No one who wants to prove they are “educated,” which tens of millions of people try desperately to do all the time, dares to laugh at hippie repetition of the most tiresome clichés.
Hippies are not referred to as being mindless. They are ALWAYS praised for being “idealistic.”
No one on TV is EVER going to tell a black man that he said something that was just plain stupid. They are not going to a say a hippie bores them into a coma any more than the devout Catholics are going to laugh at the old nun crossing herself when “Dracula” is mentioned. But what if the old nun crosses herself and recites a prayer ALL THE TIME? All through the conference everybody must stop when they mention ANYTHING she has not heard in the convent and wait RESPECTFULLY while she crossed herself and says a Prayer Against Evil. About the fortieth time that happened, even the most understanding in the Faith might get a bit tired of it.
But they can’t say so.
Which is exactly why Death, who knows all about war, actually SAYING that the hippie girl on Family Guy was an idiot was so funny. Tens of millions of Desperately Seeking “Educated” suburbanites who watch The Family Guy have sat through hippies endlessly droning the same old crap day after day, party after party. Every time the hippie spoke up the entire conversation was thrown off track as everybody had to listen, reverently, to some words about Love and Peace that they knew the hippie was going to say.
Again.
But they can NEVER say WHY it’s funny, any more than the Catholics could criticize the old nun.
So every now and then you see things like that used in comedy when they could NEVER be said anywhere ELSE. And the room explodes in laughter.
Though nobody will DARE say WHY.

There are organizing forces, and then there are forces that tend toward dissolution.
Science is an organizing force. The Internet is an organizing force.
The PC Establishment is literally wringing the life out of society.
“Hippie Chick” is just plain tragic. In today’s world she doesn’t have a prayer. She will never make it. There is simply no room for her. It’s ordained.
That’s what the idiotic Tibetans never understood. The Han Chinese hosed their prayer wheel spinning monks with machine guns for a reason. The world simply ran out of room for prayer wheel spinning monks. This had nothing to do with ideology. But don’t tell the stupid Tibetans. They are incapable of understanding.
And don’t tell Hippie Chick either. It’s not possible she could get a clue.

This is what I meant by suggesting that a great bumper sticker, in an election year, would be “AFRICA FOR AFRICANS, ASIA FOR ASIANS, WHITE COUNTRIES FOR EVERYBODY.” Beavis and Butthead would think, “Yeah, cool man” others would think, “What?”

Hippies are boring. At school we learned the HARD way what would happen if you weren’t sitting still, paying attention while the liberal social studies teacher was reciting the same comments that made us guys groan and moan.
It wasn’t about race then, it was about feminism, but us guys were being taught a lesson. It was a sign of disrespect, of extreme disrespect, the worst kind imaginable, if you didn’t take every stupid comment dead seriously.
There is another similarity between the hippies and the devout nun. The exaggerated sense of indignation. You will never see anyone ever, get more indignant so quickly and so easily than these PC hippies when you dare question or contradict their faith. It quickly, instantly becomes personal, offensive.
You could oppose Stephen Hawkings thesis on Black Holes, his lifes work, and he would not be offended. You could argue with someone who treats the existance of God on a scholarly level, and they will not be offended because you uttered something they believe is wrong.
But when you get a devout follower, a person of deep faith, we all know that if you said ‘I believe God does not exist’, it would not be a metered and intellectual discussion that would follow.

To the best of my knowledge, leftist utopianism is a heresy of protestantism. Bible thumpers’ trying to create a perfect society based upon Genesis.
You know, Adam and Eve frolicking about in some sort of perfect ideal wonder world.
Personally, I have never met a nun or priest who genuflected themselves over vampires real or imagined.
I have witnessed on numerous occasions, nit-wit pentecostals in Elvis inspired attire blather on incoherently while thrashing about on mass stages like retards and mumbling mindlessly in front of huge audiences of like minded savages.
A hippie is nothing more than a savage wannabee.

The de facto State Religion of Political Correctness demands that no one laugh at it when Someone is watching.
I have long argued that Western Man did remarkably well in organizing forces, and the Children of the Sixties – the Hippies – have been engaged in oppositional defiance to Western Civilization in general, and the White Race, in particular.
The Children of the Sixties are our counterpart to the Tibetan monks, the Lamaists, who tried to maintain a secular manifestation of the Divine Realm, in the face of modern technology.
And the relevance of this to our Racial Issues is this:
People who are indulged in the luxury of wishful thinking, are displaced, and replaced, by those who are singleminded in their ruthless dedication to a new social order.
Thus, the railroad to Tibet is the tool of facilitate the mass relocation of Mongolians – LOTS of Mongolians – to facilitate the de facto eradication of the Tibetans.
Like our own aboriginal Indians, the iron horse transforms all that crosses its path, even in far Lhasa.
And the Hippies, the ones with the “Free Tibet” flags and bumper stickers – which, from what I have seen, are made in China?
They, remarkably, bifurcate into two distinct groups – Elitists, who were playing a Game, and Drones.
Drones, like Princess Moonglow Flowerchild went from acid, in the flower of her youth, to Jack Daniels, IF she can find some guy to pay for it.
The Elitists?
Well, just look at, say, Bill Ayers, Bernadette Dorn, Angela Davis, and those are just the easily recognized names.
They are determined to inflict, in Sowell’s great phrase, the Vision of the Anointed, on us, and will FORCE us to “be good.”
Or else…
Have I mentioned tonight how much I hate these people?

This in no way is meant to contradict the point made.
Crossing oneself at the mention of Dracula is a superstition that I have never come across, despite being taught by nuns for twelve years. It sounds more like a Hollywood invention, a Jewish, anti Christian mockery. On the other hand I can credit some of the most barbed, anticlerical stories knocking around in my memory from youthful days to two nuns. One taught the fifth grade, the other, the eighth. In these two women pious beliefs and good works went hand in hand with a shrewd observation of human frailty, especially in the church’s hierarchy.

The Catholic Church is not a failed institution. Quite the contrary, it is a stupendously successful institution that grows by leaps and bounds, worldwide, every day.
This is not because the Catholic Church is full of low individuals. To the contrary, it is full of top-drawer individuals.
The MSM doesn’t mention these facts because it gets in the way of liberal conceits.
But an extraordinarily strong man (and perhaps a woman) can impose a will on multitudes of people. I’ve seen it done. And the authorities can do nothing about it.
You won’t find these types needing or wanting some institution’s support.
This is how the public sometimes gets broadsided with change no one could have predicted. And intellectuals can never explain it, before or after.
That’s because courage is not needed from the weak. Courage is needed from the strong and clergy in our part of the world don’t seem to get this.
The greatest religious institution would accept only the extraordinarily strong. Whether such a thing exists I don’t know.

Dave, there is no real advantage to being a Catholic unless you are either a) making a living from it or b) more interested in the success of the institution than in your own success and well being.

Prometheus, there is no real advantage to being an adherent to any religion unless you are either a) making a living from it or b) more interested in the success of the institution than in your own success and well being. However, if you think that the peculiarities of this or that sect are odd, the beliefs of unbelievers are odder. When men abandon the belief in God they will buy into anything, example, communism.
The religion of most men is determined at birth. They pray as their fathers pray. Religion provides a comprehensive moral and ethical code. Society would not benefit from each individual reinventing the wheel in this area of life as most would respond to lust and greed as guiding principles.
Humans give birth to feral creatures. It is the high calling and heavy burden of parents to turn out civilized members of society. Given the clay natures provides it is not easy. Religion is an important tool. This is a utilitarian view of religion. There is another angle. It is spiritual. It credits God with existence. This is a matter of faith. Not everyone’s view of the world is limited to material matters Their adherence to Catholicism, or any other religion or sect, is based outside the narrow constraints of your materialist, perhaps inadvertent, Marxist, analysis.

Prometheus,
I am not a religious person and I’m not a Catholic. But one thing I respect is spiritual sanctuary and a lot of Catholic Church’s achieve that, no mean feat, because many religious institutions fail to do that. And spiritual sanctuary is particularly needed in Communist Asia, which is why the Catholic Church is growing so fast there.
An example of the failure to provide sanctuary is Trinity Church (an Episcopal Church) at the head of Wall Street. Now whether Trinity Church is a real church or not, I don’t know, but I do know it fails to provide sanctuary. That’s because tourists tramp in and out of Trinity Church in an unending stream, and I certainly wouldn’t go there to get my head together. Whenever I am at Trinity Church I feel sorry for the dead in the graveyard outside wasting all that perfectly good dirt.
But the Jehovah’s Witnesses facilities across the river are a different story. The Jehovah’s Witnesses like the Catholics have a Wordism they revolve around. But their Wordism doesn’t mean it doesn’t take courage and effort and sacrifice to build a real sanctuary.
And somebody on the spiritual side of the street needs to be there flipping those animals on Wall Street the bird. And I just love the fact that there is no way those self-centered animals’ slaving for riches on Wall Street can avoid the red neon Watchtower sign on the JW facility across the river. Wall Street would blow the whole Jehovah’s Witnesses complex to hell if they could.
But they can’t, and that counts as a real spiritual achievement on the part of the JWs. They are there and Wall Street can do nothing about it. And even though I am not a religious person I just have to respect the JWs for doing that. And I can go into the JW complex and tell them the only reason I am there is to get away from those Wall Street rats on the other side of river, and they will leave me alone and let me be.
That’s sanctuary.

This is getting off point about the pc hippy cult, but the JW’s aren’t what they appear from Wall Street. It’s a cult, and anyone who gets involved will definately not be left alone.
#12 by Prometheus on 09/16/2008 - 3:57 am
backbaygrouch4, the type of religion that people gravitate towards is determined at birth, perhaps. I see many similarities between a hardcore athiest who stands on a soap boxes and talks about NOTHING BUT the non-existance of god, and the Christians who stand on the street corner, and talk about nothing but salvation through Christ. I imagine these two people very easily be occupying each others shoes. The spanish inquisitors whould have made great PC intellectuals if they were born these days, ready to punish anyone who is a non believer of the PC faith.
You don’t need to be spiritual to be an adherent of a Christian institution. You don’t need to be ‘tolerant’ to be an adherent of the PC cult. You only need to be devoted, and that is how you are judged.
A man needs to know when he is serving a useful cause, or serving a foriegn cause dressed up as a useful cause.
God, mans spirit, the goals of white men. None of these are dependant upon the survival or patronage of any particular institution.
#13 by Dave on 09/16/2008 - 12:56 pm
Shari,
I don’t this discussion is off the point. Here’s why:
I differ from the dumb hippy because I don’t care about the righteousness of anything.
If it is God’s will that the white race come to an end, then I am an enemy of God. Like I said, I am not religious.
I can take those JWs in Brooklyn and make them my allies. It is my responsibility to do so. And I am not going to use as an excuse the fact that they are a cult to avoid my responsibility to be a successful fighter.
Robert E. Lee surrendered because he believed it necessary that his cause be righteous. He was wrong. He should have chosen to become an enemy of God instead.
The moral (and religious among us) always look at the dead soldier lying on the caisson. They neglect to notice the thief who stole his boots.
That’s why white nationalism is in no need of a moral foundation. It is not required. And if crime is required to service white nationalism, crime it will be.
Winning fights has nothing to do with being right.
#14 by shari on 09/18/2008 - 10:14 am
Well, how do you get men who will fight like that, if they aren’t first convinced that they are RIGHT, period? I don’t think that your ultimate success depends on having no moral or religious among you. I think that such should be with you.
#15 by Bob on 09/18/2008 - 12:37 pm
ANY loyalty to ANY institution today is evil.
#16 by shari on 09/18/2008 - 1:33 pm
Bob, I agree. I was talking about basic premises. What motivates someone. Maybe we are argueing in the same direction. I think it is impossible to fight against God and fight for your own, today. Morals and religion are with us, built in.
