Have You Committed Your Three Thought Crimes Today?


"If you want a vision of the future, imagine a military boot stamping on a human face - forever." - George Orwell, '1984'


Authored by James George Jatras via The Strategic Culture Foundation,

As we near the end of the twenty - first century's second decade it seems that the more laws our elected (or appointed,) lawmakers create the more lawless societies in the developed nations become. There are many possible reasons for this. Some sociologists say modern society is a pressure cooker and the stresses of everyday life drive people to crime.

Others suggest that as the gap in lifestyles between the affluent and the poor has widened, those at the lower end of the income scale feel alienated and abandoned by governments with policy platforms that favout the rich and affluent. Yet others cite the decline in meaningful work; while statistical jiggery pokery creates the illusion of low unemployment rates the numbers of people of working age not participating in the economy is higher than ever. The trick used to manipulate figures for public consumption is no secret. In the USA people who have not worked for 99 weeks are classed as not economically active and removed from the pool of people available for work. In Britain the same technique is used, the only difference is you are not 'unpersoned' (to borrow a term from the old Soviet Union politbureau,) until 104 weeks have elapsed since you were last formally employed.

Different numbers apply in other developed nations, but the result is the same. The numbers of people not in work while capable of working is several percentage points higher than stated. Many of those technically not working are, as one might expect, working very hard, in trades such as fences (buying and selling stolen property,) potrepreneurs (dealing marihuana,) working girl (ladies of negotiable affection,) rent boy, bootleggers, fakers, any kind of hustle or even in occupations that would be legitimate if the trader was declaring a six figure income and paying tax, rather than claiming state benefits.


Another aspect of the role of lawmakers in the abundance of laws that have been created, seemingly without thought, so that not only are many of them impossible to police, but also we often find ourselves in the situation of not being able to obey one law without breaking another.  


Several years ago the Commonwealth of Virginia enacted a law limiting individuals to purchasing one gun per month. This was intended to discourage smuggling of weapons to urban areas outside Virginia with tight gun control laws and (unsurprisingly) high homicide rates. The law didn’t seem to do much good and in a rare outbreak of common sense was later repealed, though there’s recent misguided talk from Attorney General Mark Herring of reviving it.

During its short period in force, the law gave rise to a popular saying in the Old Dominion: “Buy one gun a month – it’s the law!”

Such things do not concern us in Britain, where the only way to possess a handgun unless one is a police officer, member of the state security services or a military officer is illegally (and only in special circumstances are people in those categories allowed to keep a hand gun at home). This has meant that the majority of handguns are now owned by criminals. Making gun ownership illegal did not stop criminals owning guns, criminals are expected to break the law - its in their job description.

A similar attitude may be appropriate in light of an estimate that due to vague statutes and the proliferation of both national and supra - national regulations which have the force of law, we wake up in the morning, go to work, come home, eat dinner, and go to sleep  unaware we may have committed several federal crimes in the course of the day. The number varies but the average number of crimes per citizen of a developed nation seems to be about three.

The more important point is that every one of us is probably guilty of something. “There is no one in the United States over the age of 18 who cannot be indicted for some federal crime,” retired Louisiana State University law professor John Baker told the Wall Street Journal in July 2011. That is not an exaggeration. It is probably even higher in Britain and Europe, where the European Union's abandonment of one of the most ancient principles of government makes unwitting criminality even easier.

Since the days of King Alfred the Great of Wessex (reigned 871 - 899) the common law has held that you can do anything that is not specifically forbidden by law. Over the next few centuries most of Europe, as it moved from tribal territories to more formal nation status, adopted much of the Anglo - Saxon common law. And why not, it was straightforward: You can't murder people, you can't steal other people's stuff, you can't set fire to your rival's home, shop or outhouse, you can't use dodgy weights and measures to sell a 100 pound bag of flour that only contains 90 pounds of flour or a quart jug of beer that only contains one and seven eighth pints. Everybody knows where they stand.

If a local law says "only citizens of Wobbleton can catch fish in the River Wobble," and you do not live in Wobbleton, you know the risk if you go fishing in the River Wobble.

Under the European Union approach to law, and they hold this principle in common with Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, Soviet Russia and Communist China, along with most other nasty, oppressive regimes, "If something is not specifically permitted by law it is illegal to do it."

Consider:
"Hey you! What do you think you're doing?"
"I saw the pond was frozen so I'm just walking on the ice for fun."
"There's nothing in the statutes that says you can walk on the ice, so you're breaking the law. You're under arrest."
"But I'm only walking on the ice, it's not harming anyone."
"But the law does not permit walking on the ice."
"Well maybe the pond wasn't frozen when they made the law."
"Now you're under arrest for walking on the pond and talking back to a police officer."

At this point the cop draws his gun and shoots you because there is nothing in the law that says public officials have to be intelligent and reasonable. I actually have personal experience of this, while walking through the business district of Luxembourg City with two colleagues 30 years ago, we decided not to wait for a green light before crossing a street. It was after 10 p.m. and the street was deserted as is usually the case in business districts late at night. Unfortunately a cop saw us and accused us of jay - walking.

"Oh come on," we said, "the street is deserted, there was no need to wait for the light."

At that point the cop took our names and addresses and warned us we would be reported. Then he ordered us to go back to the other side of the street and use the crossing correctly. When we protested he drew his gun and we decided that was a conclusive argument.

Such encounters between intelligent individuals and a petit fonctionnaire with a gun are a nightmare familiar to many people in certain parts of the world, but the European Union likes to present itself as a champion of civilised, enlightened values. However, when bureaucratic rules and regulations are formalised in law, the result is inevitable.

What all this means is:
  • If they want you, they can get you.
  • That in turn means that who gets charged, prosecuted, and jailed is a matter of the relevant officials’ discretion.
  • And that in turn means that discretion can and will be politicized.
Like the boychiks of the good ol’ NKVD (People’s Commissariat for Internal Affairs; Народный комиссариат внутренних дел) once said: “Give Us the Man, and We Will Make the Case.” (I guess nowadays, we should say “person,” gender specific pronouns are not permitted by law and thus constitute hate speech)

The true court of law, where justice is administered in a politically neutral manner is few and far between in human history. The norm is politicized justice where holders of power – in a representative democracy system, the winners of the last election – use the justice system as part of their effort to hold on to power.

One of the greatest affronts to the liberties of we who live in societies based on the European culture that grew out of the Graeco - Roman civilisation and the Gothic - Celtic culture has been the hijacking of our principle of free speech by those authoritarian groups who call themselves 'the left.'  In the past few decades we have seen a coordinated campaign of banning certain speakers and suppressing certain ideas by an illiberal ideology known as politically correct thinking.  More recently flitering of internet content, shadow banning of certain writers and podcasetrs and other foul means of  suppressing diversity of opinion has succeeded in putting many dissenting voices into a digital concentration camps. Superficially this seems to be the initiative of megalomaniacal executives on tech giants such as Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple and to a lesser extent others, but all of these corporations, especially Google, are known to have very cosy relationships with governments and national security agencies.

Using Russian meddling as a pretext, companies that do billions of dollars of business with the federal government are only too happy to police the web of “suspected Russian-linked accounts” on behalf of government while simultaneously taking money from Russian clients for political advertising campaigns. And since, as Hillary Clinton says, Putin is the leader of the worldwide “authoritarian, white-supremacist, and xenophobic movement” who is “emboldening right-wing nationalists, separatists, racists, and even neo-Nazis,” anything and anybody that fails Mark Zuckerberg’s sniff test is now fair game.

Of more concern than the deplatforming of dissenters and demonization of dissent is the “output” censorship: limiting what web users can see and hear that differs from the official government / mainstream media narrative of approved news and opinion. Unsurprisingly, that line is unfailingly for war and intervention, in fact it was laughable that during the Obama presidency, American  liberals and European socialists, traditional opponents of war and military intervention, became very enthusiastic for Obama's wars "to liberate people from tyrants" (tyrants that the people were happy to live under, knowing the Islamic funny mentalists that replaced the secular dictators would be far worse.)

The switch by these self identified, self righteous 'liberals' has largely been influenced by social media and left dominated mainstream media which between them have created a monoculture in news reporting where objective reporting is routinely dismissed as 'fake News' (There is no evidence of Russian meddling in western elections, or of Syria's Assad regime using chemical weapons, yet from what has been published in the digisphere and mainstream media one would think both these examples of fake news are uncontestable facts.)

In George Orwell's dystopian novel 1984, written in 1948 and based on the distasteful, authoritarian ideology he had been shocked to encounter among the elitist socialists of the Fabian Socity in the 1930s, he envisages a future in which the Big Brother regime maintains order by strictly controlling information, ensuring the public only see news stories that make the regime look good, maintaining total surveillance of everybody through two way surveillance devices dubbed telescreens installed in every home and creating a new category of crime, thought crime, which goes further than banning free speech by punishing people not only for criticising the regime, but for not supporting it enthusiastically enough, or for departing from the official line and thinking for themselves.

Any of that sound familiar.

Whether opposition to the gathering darkness can be effective is uncertain. But what is not uncertain is our duty to oppose it, even at the risk of committing three felonies a day. To paraphrase Karl Marx, “Thought criminals of the world unite, they have taken everything but our brains.”

Be sure to commit your three Thought Crimes per day.

How Can The 'Left' Talk Of Equality When They Don't Tolerate Diversity Of Opinion

One of the first things I learned at my Grandfather's knee, as it were, was the importance of free speech and of exposure to different ides and shades of opinion. Grandad had been a member of the Labour party before World War One and had lived through the class wars in the early decades of the twentieth century. My Dad was a Labour man too, until as a newspaper reporter, he learned things about socialism that shocked him.

What dad had discovered was that some time after the 1918 Representationn Of The People Act was passed by the national government under David Lloyd George, which extended voting rights to all men and to women over 30, thus paving the way for the working class vote to enable The Labour Party to compete with The Conservatives and eclipse The Liberal Party, certain elitists, aristocrats, wealthy business people and academics feared their elite social class would lose its grip on power. Led by The Fabian Society these new upper class leaders of the party that claimed it was a grass roots working class movement had only contempt for the working classes, whom they regarded as inferior beings.

George Orwell exposed this soon after it had happened, in the second half of his polemical book The Road To Wigan Pier. Orwell had been commissioned to write a study of the terrible working and living conditions endured by the working classes in British industrial towns. What the wealthy, elitist members of 'The Left Book' club, which commissioned the study, hoped Orwell would produce was an argument for paternalistic socialism, with a government of enlightened, socialist elitists presiding like the Patrician caste of ancient Rome over the ignorant, stupid, ineducable, almost bestial lower orders.

What Orwell did produce was indeed a study of working class life, but he found among them intelligence, sensitivity and a rough edged kind of nobility in the way they endured the privations of life. In the second part of the book however, Orwell wrote an exposé of the patronising, condescending, self righteous attitudes of these wealthy, virtue signalling socialists. And he was probably the first to identify one of the most despicable traits of these people, their inability to tolerate anybody disagreeing with their utopian vision or pointing out the very obvious flaws in their ideas for solving social problems.

This was no trivial matter, just as it was becoming clear that both Germany's National Socialists and Russia's Communists were monstrously tyrannical regimes under which the working classes were as badly off as they had been under the old monarchies, Orwell had revealed that the Fabian socialists rather liked both, particularly Hitler's policy of eugenics. So long as those born to rule continued to rule and those born to toil were kept in their place, The Fabian's idea of Utopia stood.

I became a member of The Liberal Party in the early 1960s, at the time The Liberals in parliament were a tiny remnant of the once great party, but at local level they were much stronger. Though the party had become more collectivist and less libertarian than the party of 1918, it was still possible as a liberal to hold and express an unorthodox opinion. The same was true of Labour, but free speech was a privilege extended only to older members. Among the younger ones hatred of anyone opposed to "the agenda" was starting to become de rigeur.

The left, traditionally the political position of individual freedom, personal development and self - determination has since then continued on its path to authoritarianism.

It is very revealing to observe how opinionated Labour supporters women who dare to stray from the party line are treated by 'new' Left in Britain today? Just fine, provided one stays on message. Dare to dissent and the mask of diversity and benevolence, over which the Left claims to have a monopoly, slips.

The latest name to be added to the list of people in the Labour Party who have fallen foul of Fabian authoritarian for expressing an unsanctioned view is German born M.P. Gisela Stuart, who, it was reported last week, was allegedly reminded that she “had another country to go to” by former press officer to Tony Blair, Alastair Campbell. Her crime: daring to campaign for Brexit (Mr Campbell called the story “truth mangling”).

First, can you imagine the furore had anyone said that to Jamaican born Diane Abbot with regard to her racist, black supremacist view of white people in Britain? Secondly, it has been established beyond doubt by the attitude of the EU bureaucracy to Brexit negotiations and by the performance of the UK economy since the Brexit vote that is was the Remain campaign, supported by Campbell and his crony Blair, that mangled the truth in their campaign. Thirdly, recent events in Europe have demonstrated that the intention of the E.U. was to create a bureaucratic dictatorship that would swallow all member states into a single European superstate.

What adds to the insult is the suspicion that if any Conservative or Liberal Democrat behaved towards dissenters like that, they would risk their career – but that the Left gets away with so much by invoking a philosophical “get out of jail free” card, they are the party of diversity and multiculturalism.

Incredibly, the now suspended Labour MP Jared O’Mara actually said as much a little while ago, when he refused to resign over his own derogatory comments but suggested that had such bile been uttered by a Tory MP, the situation would have been different because Conservatism doesn’t foster “equality and egalitarianism”. Eventually, and reluctantly it must be said, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn was forced by public pressure to act.

What breathtaking arrogance! What stunning hypocrisy! What is the source of this benefit of the doubt the Left is prepared to allow itself but not its opponents? What gives socialists the right to demand that they be held to a lower standard than those to which it holds its opponents? What credibility can this veneer of egalitarianism and tolerance have if its prozelytizers consistently fail to practise what they preach, behave in an increasingly elitist manner and yet continue to take the support of their historic working class constituencies for granted?

The Left’s obsession with the quasi - religious dogma of diversity and equality of race and sex has reduced these important matters to a lazy box-ticking exercise, which a huge section of the population now holds in contempt, ultimately harming the cause of the very groups it claims to be supporting.

If the Left truly values diversity, it must celebrate dissent. People must have the right to oppose same sex marriage, affirmative action hiring policies, academic uplifts for minorities and the promotion of transgenderism in schools. When differing opinions can be houted down and earn those who express them threats of violence, the echo chamber may well sound harmonious, but the while the voices bouncing the walls repeat the same ideas, a dangerous anger is simmering silently on the back burner.

Castro and The Hypocrisy Of The Left

It was the brutal, authoritarian leader of the Soviet Union's communist regime, Uncle Joe Stalin who described the fawning, self interested middle classes who having worked for the Czarist regime, were quick to become loyal socialists when the socialists were winning, as Useful Idiots. Communism and sociaism do not work, everybody should know this by now, yet brutal authoritarian tyrants like Fidel Castro can always find uselful idiots to support them.

Castro lasted longer than most communist tyrants probably because he led a small nation and had less dissenters to suppress and murder.Now his death is being mourbed by the usual suspects in Hollywood, the liberal luvvies who still believe the warmonger and destroyer of nations Obama spread peace, joy and prosperity around the world and who recently supported Hillary Clinton in her bid for the presidency even though she promised to start a war with Russia. Many of them the Liberal luvvies who endorsed Obama and Clinton and encouraged to poor and downtrodden to vote Democrat and become poorer and more downtrodden are now jumping on the bandwagon of the oppressor Castro and proclaiming this murderer and torturer a hero.

Comedian Chevy Chase at Earth Day 2000 in Washington D.C., said he believes “socialism works” and explained that “Cuba might prove that.” Yeah Bro I bet the 11 million earning just $20 a week will agree with you on that.

Chase was among the first to sing Castro's praises when news of the old bastard's death broke yesterday.

Kevin Costner after going to Cuba in 2001 to preview his film “13 Days”: “It was an experience of a lifetime to sit only a few feet away from him and watch him relive an experience he lived as a very young man. What experience was that Kev the one where he sat talking to a poor Cuban farmer for an hour telling him how good communism is and how the piss poor farmer was going to embrace it and when the piss poor farmer said communism has never worked, took out his revolver and shot the piss poor farmer in the head. Or was it the one where he and Che lined up a few other piss poor Cuban farmers and shot them one by one taking turns. Whatever the story Kev I bet you fell on the floor pissing yourself with laughter.

“He is a genius. We spoke about everything,” actor Jack Nicholson after meeting with Castro in 1998. Yeah I bet you did Jack I bet you laughed just like Kev did as he told you the same stories

Saul Landau, an Emmy award-winning filmmaker: Castro “has brought a greater equality in terms of wealth distribution than I guess any country in the world today.” Bet you did not ask anyone of the 11 million Cubans if that was true Saul, one born every minute comes to mind Saul hey.

Film director Steven Spielberg visited Cuba and met with Castro in November of 2002 and dined with the dictator until the early morning hours. Afterward, Spielberg announced that his dinner with Castro “was the eight most important hours of my life.” Not the day of his wedding. Not the day that his kids were born. The most important hours of his life was the time that he spent with this criminal.

Oliver Stone is another Hollywood producer who is in love with the Cuban dictator. “: “We should look to [Castro] as one of the earth’s wisest people, one of the people we should consult.” What? A few did try to consult with him Ollie babe, they ended up with one in the brain.

Musician Carlos Santana attended the Oscars wearing a che Guevara t-shirt. It seems that Santana was not aware that Guevara sent people to jail for listening to his music. Sheesh how dumb can people be?

This is a good one

Dan Rather, was another of the many journalists who admired the Cuban dictator, ignoring that Castro had closed all private media in Cuba and dozens of journalists spent years in prison for reporting the truth about Cuba

Supermodel Naomi Campbell Fidel Castro was “a source of inspiration to the world. I’m so nervous and flustered because I can’t believe I have met him. He said that seeing us in person was very spiritual,” said Campbell after meeting with Castro, according to the Toronto Star. Oh Naomi he he is very spiritual he just loved to send people to meet God and Gods Angels.

Useful idiots indeed.
