But the critical matter is how tyranny twists things. This is particularly salient with freedom of speech and thought.

Accordingly, we now have a “Hugh Hefner First Amendment”, courtesy of the “Greatest Generation”. And before the Internet killed the San Fernando Valley porn industry, the industry would preface its offerings by celebrating “our First Amendment right” (the visuals would show a waving American flag) to watch pornography. This was on all fours with the true beliefs and goals of the “Greatest Generation”.

Hugh Hefner, the spiritual and ideological leader of the “Greatest Generation”, believed that freedom meant the right to send pornographic magazines through the mail, which included the right to throw up porno shows in local theaters and in halls of fraternal organizations.

It was only later, after the porn industry really got off the ground, that he got around to extending this to family television.

I am not exaggerating about the “Greatest Generation” and their commitment to pornography. Almost to a man they believed that the proof that “freedom” had triumphed over tyranny in WWII was because condoms were easily obtainable in any American drug store and Playboy magazines could be had at any check out counter rack.

This was in accord with Hollywood’s definition of “freedom” also, a definition it promoted well before the War. The worst thing about Nazism according to Hollywood, besides its penchant for killing Jews, was that the evil Nazis would have suppressed porn theater, the availability of condoms, and Playboy magazine.

in reply:
The more I look at the real history of World War II, the deeper my anger at what we did, and what the outcomes were, for us.

The more I look at the implications of “freedom” for us, the more I realize they simply confused the idea of “freedom” with the idea of “liberty,” and that was confused with the right to be mindless, easily manipulated libertines, rather than the mindful stewards of Civilization.

This is mindful of Burnham’s observation, that the West committed suicide by not expanding, even internally…

Later, the Boomers following the attitudes and beliefs of their fathers on the First Amendment, evolved their father’s attitudes about “freedom” to mean that anything in the cultural sphere that assaulted dignity and decency, promoted vulgarity, extolled degeneracy and dereliction, romanticized criminality and psychopaths, elevated unwholesomeness and the destruction of innocence, and was just plain spiritually and psychologically damaging (especially to children), was to mean a public “good” that extended “freedom”.

This ideology drove many a hippie lawyer into the arms of the ACLU.

This gambit hit an apex with the mainstreaming of Quentin Tarantino’s and Richard Rodriquez’s (both Baby Boom generation Hollywood successes) bacchanalian celebrations of psychopathic Satanism held out to be “art” and heavily promoted in the mainstream distribution channels as “family entertainment”.

in reply:
True; these values are the inversion of the values that made the West great. I’ll have more to say about that in a later piece.

Today we are supposed to ignore the fact that this doctrine in the hands of the mainstream media has morphed into one of most ghastly, ruthless, and cruel programs of tyranny in all of human history.

No people ever have suffered such a cruel psychological assault as we suffer in America under this doctrine, which today holds anything whatsoever is permissible as long as it offends decency, beats down and wounds the human spirit, destroys the innocence of children, and makes wholesome family life impossible.

The only thing that is not permitted is the word “nigger” and the idea that white people do anything valuable.

Accordingly, American culture in our time with its unlimited permissions is in fact utterly horrible, ghastly, and awful. Its present form is an abomination that is as savagely cruel as anything can be, a real historical outlier in the field of officially sanctioned cruelty and brutality.

in reply:
This, in part, is why I am not a “Conservative”; as I told my Church-going friends, “This was the result of a the decisions of a Federal judiciary appointed by ‘Conservative’ presidents. Stop playing Charlie Brown with the football.”

The ease with which this evil can penetrate every element of our public square, alone, qualifies it as a “historical outlier”; it’s easy to get, and lends itself very well to being remade in the image of the observer. Given elementary digital tools, not only can we easily obtain these perversions, we can remake them in our image…

It breaks my heart to see the desperate attempts, really spontaneous reactions, by family groups and religious and other types of organizations to find sanctuary from the ghastly assaults that have long been daily, mainstream, and ubiquitous under the glorious “freedom” we now enjoy courtesy of the “Greatest Generation” and their Baby Boom offspring.

in reply:
I have been working on an alternative history (FICTION!) biography of someone who strongly resembles the late Dr. Sam Francis. He decides the only alternative is to form a Community organized around Victorian standards, as an island of Civilization in a failed America gone mad. The Church Elders play a very decisive role in enforcing stability, and have as their simple test, “Is it BEST for the RACE?”

That simple question clears away a lot of the moral ambiguities where amorality lies in wait.

No television in this society, by the way.

you wrote:

Like hell this doctrine constitutes “freedom”. It constitutes slavery, pure and simple.

I really believe, that if progress does occur, that at some time in future people will look back on our era in complete disbelief. They will simply be incapable of comprehending how things could have become culturally that awful, that cruel, that bestial, and that ghastly.

Our slavery is so severe that we really are being reduced to the state of animals under the dehumanizing media regime of the “Greatest Generation” and their Boomer offspring.

in reply:
So, the current “media regime” – controlled by our Racial Enemies, the Jews – is intentionally trying to “reduce (us) to the state of animals.”

Is that “animals,” as in “goyim,” “livestock,” and “cattle?”

Yes.

Yes, it is.

And, our institutions have become their willing co-conspirators…

Accordingly, a revolution waits.

in reply:
The question is, “When and in what form will this revolution take?”

The only answer can be, “Cultural, in the absence of a central governing body in anything more than name.”

Incidentally, I think this is part and parcel of what frustrated the late Dr. Sam Francis. He recognized, too late, that the only solutions were based on Race – First, Foremost, Forever – and the only place this could take place would be at a safe distance from the current social order.

As I remind my nephews every day, “Gentlemen, the Game was never won on defense. At a certain point, you have to take the war to the Enemy, on YOUR terms.”

The foundation of those terms is Race – First, Foremost, Forever.

More to follow…

By the way, a quick comment on Bob’s observation, “A society which is only held together by an opinion cannot have freedom of opinion.”

Am I alone in noticing that the Ron Paul Campaign seems to have literally had the lights turned off, overnight, quickly, quietly, and silently?

Am I alone in noticing that Libertarian Ideals ran into *SOMETHING* that just hit the “OFF” switch?

Am I alone in noticing that the foundation of what could have been to the future what the Goldwater Campaign was to the Reagan Revolution seems to have been suddenly, dramatically, short-circuited?

My nephews told me the local Ron Paul Meet-Up seems to be inactive; “Don’t call us, we’ll get back to you” seems to be the message.

Fortunately, they were using the Ron Paul Meet-Up to Meet-Up with worthwhile young ladies, and they just got a lesson in bare-knuckle politics…

Their Focus will be on building a Nation…

Bet on it.

Ron Paul’s Proposition – based on freedom of opinion – just ran into the cold, hard fact that Proposition Nations can not have freedom of opinion, in practice.
