Maybe it’s jealousy, maybe it’s saving face, maybe it’s embarrassment, but the Obama people don’t seem too keen on being put in a position to defend what seems to be pretty open grifting using government power. Of course I’m speaking of the great and powerful Hunter Biden, who grew up with a silver Biden in his mouth (or words to that effect) enabling him to fail upward from crack whore client to bigwig energy executive to millionaire artist who paints like a prodigy if he were a child but a child if he were a man (you do the math, friends).
The glorious paintings were fetching half a mil plus on the open and free art market where powerful people could now openly buy influence in our government, something that ‘progressives’ are decidedly allegedly against.
Hats off to the Obabam gang for not having the stomach to give this Hunter a pass, though.
A former ethics chief in the Obama administration has slammed Hunter Biden amid revelations he may meet with prospective buyers of his paintings at two upcoming art shows.
The shows – one in Los Angeles and one in New York – are scheduled to take place in the fall, shortly before Hunter’s works go up for sale.
Hunter’s large oil paintings are expected to fetch upwards of $500,000 each – an eye-popping sum given that he has no formal art training or qualifications.
The folks who self-identify as DeepMind are promising to wreck protein’s remaining lives by doxing whatever proteins have yet to be doxed. That’s right, folks, DeepMind is promising to release all the structures of EVERY protein known to science, without protein’s consent, no doubt.
The move could hamper the ability of corporations to win the race to patent all the designs of nature so as to assure that only the wealthy few have access to the building blocks that nature ‘created’ without any contributions from these same patent hoarders. That might not be why DeepMind is doing this, but it works for me.
In the last few months Baker’s team has been working with biologists who were previously stuck trying to figure out the shape of proteins they were studying. “There’s a lot of pretty cool biological research that’s been really sped up,” he says. A public database containing hundreds of thousands of ready-made protein shapes should be an even bigger accelerator.
“It looks astonishingly impressive,” says Tom Ellis, a synthetic biologist at Imperial College London studying the…
In a move that has literally shocked no one, China has told the WHO (World Health Organization) that it would prefer not to have any more investigations into the origins of Covid-19 because reasons. That’s right, Chairman Xi is insisting that to do any more investigating into figuring out what led to a worldwide shutdown and millions of dead is no bueno.
The people that Xi lets live and speak on his name have come out and declared the lab leak theory is crazy talk from extremists and stuff. They feign surprise that the WHO would offer this token suggestion, one which we are sure will not seriously be followed up, but one that that had to be made to hold on to any semblence of not being what they really have become, Chairman Xi’s diplomatic soldiers.
China cannot accept the World Health Organization’s plan for the second phase of a study into the origins of COVID-19, a senior Chinese health official said Thursday.
Zeng Yixin, the vice minister of the National Health Commission, said he was “rather taken aback” that the plan includes further investigation of the theory that the virus might have leaked from a Chinese lab.
He dismissed the lab leak idea as a rumor that runs counter to common sense and science.
A worldwide panic happened yesterday when a number of major sites, including Amazon and, gasp, Steam, went down as a result of an attack or a glitch that knocked out some major DNS servers. Fortunuately, we all pushed through and we can now once again play games and buy games online.
Video games, travel, web streaming services, banking, and shipping are among the industries affected by a problem with cloud provider Akamai Technologies, which appears to have taken thousands of websites offline worldwide.
Google, AT&T, Amazon Web Services, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and GoDaddy domain services were among the companies that started reporting outages on Thursday morning.
Akamai is experiencing a service disruption. We are actively investigating the issue and…
A new window on freedom opens through a proper and spiritual understanding of nationhood unshackled from the limits of politics and race, all constructs of top-down control that are a hazard to the kind of freedom God intends.
Willem IV- The power of nationhood, as a concept and in practice, isn’t what you probably think it is (political and/or racial), but it can give large bodies of people spread over vast spaces incredible influence and mutual assurance of safety without top-down down systems of control. Basically, if you understand nationhood as something spiritual that becomes sociocultural and socioeconomic and then civic, in a purely voluntary sense, you have a powerful vehicle for increasing your level of freedom and preventing yourself from being easily controlled or influenced.
This comes from the third of the 17 Protocols of Upadaria and is a dramatic, peaceful, alternative to a top-down approach and to systems and structures that are a slave to politics or polluted by racialism/racism. Through understanding nationhood as something that has a voluntarily shared spiritual basis, we can develop a sort of “organic cohesiveness” that is quite effective against more authoritarian and top-down systems of control.
The Spiritual Nation
WE ARE A SPIRITUAL NATION OF PEOPLE WHOSE GOD IS THE LORD
God ordains the nations and calls them into being. His Word establishes the boundaries of their habitation and time of their existence. We believe God has called and ordained us to be Peers of a new spiritual nation, defined by spiritual sovereignty, whose God is the Lord.
– The 17 Protocols of Upadaria, Protocol Three
For many, if we speak of a nation or a nation of people, like a nationality, the two predominant things they think of in their mind’s eye are things like a political state and citizenship or a race or bloodline ancestry. Nations can be and sometimes are based on these things or a combination of these these things, but they aren’t these things in their core essence or, we propose, in God’s eyes.
Even when a nation is associated mostly or exclusively with a single political state or a race/blood ancestry, that is not the essence of a healthy nation. Put a different way, unless a nation is at its core made up of a spiritual commonality among its participants, it is not healthy and will tend to threaten as opposed to enhance freedom.
By nation we cannot mean the land or structures like a political state. Conflating a nation with these things is like conflating a family with the house they live in. Nations exists within these things and some organizations or institutions affiliated with a nation may exert control over these structures, but these things aren’t the nation.
Nations, from our best understanding of the Biblical and historical record, can best be desribed as a distributed body of people and their families who have a shared spiritual foundation and follow the same basic way of life. Nations are ordained by God, He sets the boundaries of their existence in time and of their habitation SO THAT people might find God if they seek Him. The only way for people to freely seek God is for freedom itself to reign. Therefore we say that nations are meta-scale freedom-building agencies and vehicles of power for free people, in their ideal.
A body of ideas based on shared beliefs, values, and convictions and the body of people, along with their freewill participatory associations who embrace and utilize those ideas, make up the core substance of a nation. This is true whether such associations include political states or not and, for most all the nearly 10,000 national people groups in existence, there is no political state.
Nationhood, when we see it as something spiritual you adopt through freewill participation alone, is a way to connect deeply to others without having to compromise your individual spiritual sovereignty. It is another form of inner freedom, starting with the universal nationhood of all Believers within the Kingdom, and which is expressed in a diverse manner throughout multiple unique manifestations of nationhood, which it has always been God’s intention to create.
The Tower of Babel story illustrates a deep and sublime truth that diversity expressions of nationhood, even if all are founded on Kingdom essentials, have always been God’s intention. Moreover, Revelation describes a new heavens and a new earth that includ diverse nations of people. So then nationhood, when we see it correctly, is an at-scale agency of God’s provision of freedom and is prescribed by God, in a diversity expression, for the whole of human civilization.
The diversity of nationhood we in particular proclaim is a new spiritual nation called “Upadaria”, which is the same name of the new civilization, a civilization founded on four core ideals of good governance and of freedom for all. So then this “Upadaria” is predicated on Kingdom essentials and the core ideals of a new civilization of Believers that we believe will emerge all over the world among any nations of people.
Through this at-scale familial free association of people, who adopt a shared identity and organic cohesiveness based on ideals and neither race nor politics, people can experience a form of inner freedom that begins to reach out and into and transfigure their own lives and relationships.
We proclaim that we who embrace Yeshua as King and our own unique principles and etc all founded on Kingdom essentials and the core ideals of a freedom civilization are all Peers of a spiritual nation of people whose God is the Lord. As such, we know and have faith that God’s will surround us with a sacred spiritual boundary, pomerium as we call it, which will keep us safe from harm.
Nationhood as a concept isn’t limited to Upadarians, people who are called into our diversity expression of Kingdom Nationhood in Christ. Any body of people, which could be a few persons who become a group and a whole tribe, can use this concept as the basis of their freewill participation.
For Upadarians, who are first and foremost “Yeshuans”, that is, Believers, Christians, who follow Yeshua and identify with Him, our shared spiritual nationhood unites us under Christ alone but moves us in unique ways that go beyond Kingdom essentials and that are not required of all Christians. We are united with the whole Body of Christ because our diversity expression of nationhood is firmly rooted in the Universal Kingdom Nationhood we share with all Believers.
Our particular concept of nationhood, which anyone anywhere can voluntarily adopt by learning and embracing the 17 Protocols, begins with and seeks to equip its peers to experience spiritual sovereignty as individuals. Spiritual sovereignty means we are created in the image of God and endowed with such rights as life, liberty, property, the pursuit of happiness, freedom of expression and association, mutual and individual self-reliance and self-preservation, and respect for our rights, for human dignity, and for human flourishing.
We take this as a priori fact, we don’t debate it and we aren’t open to any compromise of our reasonable boundaries of individual and shared spiritual sovereignty, both as individual persons and as a spiritual nation as a body of people whose God is the Lord. While we work in peace and we may submit to unjust laws and policies to keep the peace or just because we have no earthly choice, we believe God will deliver us and make us free.
The mere act of identifying with such a form of spiritual nationhood means you unlock the blessings and provisions reserved for God-fearing nations of people, even if the entire surrounding society is running away from God! We will, within the other Protocols, offer comcrete methods and techniques for building freedom, and anyone can use these ideas. We also believe that when a whole distributed body of people share the same national identity, and when that national identity is founded on the person and works of Jesus Christ, according to Kingdom essentials and the vision of new freedom civilization, that God will let loose supernatural provisions, favor, and protection not manifested through any other Divinely ordained agency.
Through the adoption of a form of spiritual nationhood we can build our own inner freedom and, together in freewill participatory association, we can build out freedom in our lives, relationships, families, and communities on a unilateral basis and for the Glory of God.
The methods of 1776 don’t apply today in our response to modern, and globalist, authoritarianism, but the spirit of unilateral resistance and refusal to be cowed or owned must be reinvigorated among the populace!
In America, both the Democrats and the Republicans seem infected with different strains of the same disease: globalist authoritarianism.
For today’s Democrats, and by this we mean shot-callers not rank file registered Democrats, authoritarianism is sexy and the Bill of Rights or even the idea of America as a Union of sovereign and free Commonwealths, a Republic of Republics, is execrable. They don’t hate America, but they love monopoly power and they do hate anyone who won’t bow before their alt-gendered rainbow gods of wanton depravity and collectivist regimentation.
The bogeymen of the establishment left include racists, “phobes”, clinate change skeptics, cisgendered Christian white males especially, “insurrectionist” white supremacists and anyone on the “right” who isn’t down with the Democrats.
On the other hand, Republicans, again the shot-callers not rank and file registered Republicans, don’t hate justice and equality but they do love the blue-blooded Chamber of Commerce “cronyism over people” riches. They seem to evince a design of corporate monpolozation of the economy and worker exploitation to fatten the few at our expense. They may seem less authoritarian now, being out of power, but they are in fact just as likely to seek a world without competitors.
The bogeymen of the establishment right include “illegal aliens”, “Islamic terrorism”, “communists” who aren’t communists, and anything that hurts corporate profits and the stock market.
On one hand we have woke communism and on the other cronyist monopolism, two sects of the same “religion”, that of globalist authoritarianism, two factions of a ruling class whose aims against the interest, rights, persons, and property of the People are becoming more blatant and unchecked. Where human rights, human dignity, and human flourishing are concerned, the establishment, in both major factions, has nothing to offer but bogeyman fears and fake utopian promises and unworkable schemes.
While there are major surface differences here, the heart is the same. But there is another real difference of substance: today’s Democratic Party has evidently purged all non-authoritarians from leadership while the Republicans still face internal opposition at the leadership level to this spirit of authoritarianism. Basically, the Democratic shot-callers are almost 100% authoritarians while the Republican shot-callers are divided between the ruling class and outsiders who reject the siren call to monopoly power.
While we assess the woke communists as the main and strongest threat by far, we remain skeptical of the Republicans and vigilent against their authoritarian establishment, led by the likes of Mitt Romney and company. The fact most Republican leaders, office holders, and candidates refuse to even name “woke communism” and the authoritarianism that permeates the Democratic Party establishment is seen by many as proof the GOP has settled into a role a controlled opposition for theater only.
Authoritarianism is a growing threat to everything from supply chains and freedom of movement and commerce to individual rights and the good of the people. Policies aimed ultimately at restructuring society in every aspect to be easily managed by the few and for the few at our expense will not produce the monopoly power desired but can cause harm to the innocent caught up by their machinations.
The pushback will likely include political and civic action, but at the deeper level it must involve unilateral freedom-building actions by individuals and groups of people by freewill participation. It is proposed that freedom builders seek individual to local food, energy, health care, education, housing, and true press independency and the transformation of locales into freedom havens through official support of the Bill of Rights. These may be the most important foundational actions needed to begin to turn the tide and transfer power from the center and top to individuals, families, and various types of freewill participatory associations and communities.
In our natural sin state, humans will tend toward corruption and moral depravity against the laws of nature and nature’s God. In our natural redeemed state, when we actively seek God’s standards of righteousness and justice, humans tend toward a family-centered, as in a mother and father with their biological or adopted children, state of individual liberty within a free and pluralistic society of equals.
The one path leads to violence, poverty and ruin as the price for enriching the few and giving them absolute monopoly control over civilization itself. The other path leads to freedom with liberty and justice for all along with a high quality of life and universal opulence.
We don’t see the authoritarians winning, but we do see dark times and crises for those who righteously oppose this authoritarianism and its vehicles of power, including the alt gendered rainbow totalitarianism over culture, the wanton assault on marriage and family according to thousands of years of Judeo-Christian orthodoxy, and the monopoly corporations owning most vital aspects of our economic structure.
Even after the woke communists are vanquished, and unless they are we face a stunning collapse of the quality of life for all save the very few, the work of remaining vigilent against other hazards to our interests, rights, dignity, flourishing, persons, and property as free and spiritually sovereign human beings will remain a necessity.
Two suspects, seen from a video released by police, showed up in an older model black sedan and, at 8:20 p.m., opened fire in the area of 14th and Riggs in Washington DC, hitting two men and letting loose 20 shots before fleeing the scene. The location is within a mile of the White House and the blatant nature of the shooting, as well as the fact no arrests have been made, highlights dysfunctional priorities by local authorities.
Nobody died in the shooting, video of the reaction having been posted on Twitter.
While one man was a target and the other a bystander, neither received life-threatening injuries. Basically, the attackers, likely a members of a gang, cannot shoot straight. Criminals and gangs are being given more latitude because of the dysfunctional priorities of the Mayor and the President, whose focus is on fake threats from a bogeyman all aimed at moving the country toward a one-party police-state, albeit with very little real danger this design will ever succeed.
In June of last year, Mayor Muriel Bowser ordered the extremely partisan phrase “Black Lives Matter” painted on 16th street near the White House, in an effort to discredit then President Trump and while demanding he remove federal troops from the capital in response to Democratic Party operators launching violent riots in the city to further undermine the President. The sedituous acts by Democratic operators have devolved now into a wave of violence which, while not as bad as the 90s, still represents a spike from 2019.
Today the city partially resembles a dystopian totalitarian capital with barbed wire and troops welcomed by the mayor in response to alleged an “threat” to “overthrow the government” from “white supremacists” or “the right” whose actual number in the United States and level of threat pales compared to the violent seditious acts by radical Democrats. The January 6th riot/storming of the Capitol, while reprehensible, has become the “proof” for a conspiracy theory perpetuated by the government itself that is on par with the now infamous false claims that the Spanish sunk the Maine, which led to the Spanish-American War.
The present Speaker of the House, one Nancy Pelosi, is convening a kangaroo-court like “investigation” into the January 6th events clearly aimed at criminalizing opponents of her Party’s authoritarian aims. Through exaggeration and lies, the goal is to turn all Republicans into pariahs and pave the way to one-party rule, transforming America into an alt-gendered, rainbow dystopia ruled from DC, on behalf of billionaire lordlings, by the few at the expense of the many. But while these aims are fantastical and will never succeed, the damage these dysfunctional and anti-American aims can cause may be considerable.
This “white supremacy” or “right wing” bogeyman has been used to justify attempts to silence critics of an authoritarian American administration and to justify the militarization of the capital. But while the President and the Mayor, both authoritarian Democrats, enjoy the robust show of force against phantom threats, the real threats of crimianls and gangs, sadly involving plenty of “black on black” killings, remains an afterthought of little concern to this pair.
A young girl of only 6 years was killed in another recent shooting which has also not resulted in any arrests.
Bowser and Biden continue to bang war drums and bandy about claims of insurrection against anyone who isn’t subordinated to the authoritarian Democratic Party, but they both remain unconcerned about the killings and terror stalking the nation’s capital from a real threat.
It would appear that for Democrats, protecting people from actual threats is a far lower priority than demonizing, delegitimizing, and even outlawing their opponent on spurious grounds and through stoking wild, exaggerated, bogeyman fears of fake insurrections and coups.
Never before, even as real criminals and gangs increasingly control the streets of our nation’s capital, has this country been closer to an actual form of extreme authoritarian dictat from one overwrought and extreme Party as it is now under a totalitarian leaning administration. While the likelihood Democrats will actually create the dictatorship or junta they seem to crave, the fact their priorities are so focused on phantoms and their fears directed toward delegitimizing their innocent opponents is enough to indict the entire Party as an anti-American cabal.
Regardless, the dysfunctional priorities of the Mayor and her friend and authoritarian ally in the White House are causing the needless loss of life and property among the residents of the city.
A contact tracing app telling people in the UK to isolated for 10 days after coming into contact with any Covid-19 sufferers has been keeping some critical staff away from work. This has hit the food industry where some towns have been seeing problems with pricessing or moving food to the stores, resulting in some unhappy customers being greeted with bare shelves.
The pings come when the contact tracing app detects the user has been in contact with someone who tested positive for the virus. This has led some to simply uninstall the app. While over 86% of the population have had at least a partial vaccine and 68% havrbeen fully vaccinated, the new strain called “delta” is getting vaccinated people sick as well.
The 7 day average of new cases is up to 45k per day while at the height of the pandemic in January the the average got to 59k per day. Some 5.6 million people in the UK have had Covid-19 while 129k have died. But the current death rate is far below what it had been with 84 deaths per day being the average while it reached around 1400 per day in January of 2021.
But while the number of deaths is way down, and not expected to appreciably rise, disruptions to supply chains are still likely to occur here and there, as they are in the UK. And the differences can be dramatic, with places like London lacking a few items, like bottled water, while some towns saw a more dramatic supply distribution. There are concerns, however, it could get worse and, as word of the problem spreads, so too does hoarding.
Being prepared in these times requires a set aside of at least a few weeks to a month worth of basic nutrition needa and household supplies as disruptions of the supply chain are unlikely to become a thing of the past any time soon. The impetus for local and home grown food production is becoming greater. Even without a high death rate, outbreaks of the virus, even among the vaccinated, who are far less likely to die, can and will cause problems.
Willem IV- The current trend toward ever-increasing authoritarianism is not going to go away soon, but the trend toward something new and better emerging even within the old civilizations is also inevitable. We use the second of the 17 Protocols of Upadaria to illustrate both what is happening that is contrary to freedom and what is inevitably going to increase freedom for those who understand the times and act accordingly.
The New Civilization
A NEW CIVILIZATION OF BELIEVERS EMERGES AS OLD CIVILIZATIONS FALTER
Understanding times and seasons and cycles and patterns allows us to see that we are living in a time of visitation. The existing paradigms have resulted in a centralized corpostate that politicizes all aspects of society, such as a church system and culture that is limited by religion and Western practices. These will be lawfully and peacefully transcended over time as the new civilization emerges.
-From “The 17 Protocols of Upadaria”, Protocol Two
While authoritarianism is alarming and its disruptions of your life in the here and now can be quite dramatic, the trend toward freedom for those who understand and embrace the signs of the time is clear as well. We are in a state of early collapse, but also a state of genesis, depending on what we choose.
The historical processes whereby civilizations, from the West and Islamic, to the Russian, Indian, Japanese, and Chinese civilizations, are born, rise, decline, and fall, are mostly always inevitabilities we cannot prevent from taking place. What is unique and both special and hazardous about our particular time is that so many major human civilizations are at a similar stage of decline and that the presence of depravity, corruption, and authoritarianism are so pervasive in every major country or collection of countries, like the EU, for example.
Each civilization declines in a different way, but all tend to feature some form of moral depravity, corruption of institutions to wit the needs of the ruling class are served at the expense of the people, and the emergence of increasing manifestations of more authoritarian policies. One theory as to how and why so many of the world’s major civilizations are in similar states of decline is that Western Civilization has become so powerful and influential that it has essentially “colonized” aspects of all the other civilizations and dragged them all to its present state of spiritual and moral malaise.
But a new civilization is coming with bright and glorious prospects, whole new structures, whole new cities, predicated on freedom and prosperity with liberty and justice for all.
Meanwhile, the major civilizations, of which the Western is chief, are going in the opposite direction.
When we speak of Western Civilization your mind may hearken to images of a Judeo-Christian worldview and moral foundation combined with the Greco-Roman foundations and our history of science coupled with a strong work ethic and strong nuclear and extended families. You may know that no civilization yet has been wholly good but that the overall moral and spiritual state of Western Civilization has been far better and has itself represented an overall advancement for human civilization.
Those who understand history properly take in a view over thousands of years as opposed to the habit of modern humans, which is to be short-sighted. What we can see is that the advancement overall of humanity in terms of material well-being, technology, lifespans, quality of life, and even freedom cannot be denied. In every major aspect of this advance, Western Civilization was, since what we see as its inception in the 8th to 9th centuries, was in the vanguard.
Not everyone equally benefited but almost entirely everyone is better off materially and in every other way today than they were, say, 200 years ago. In other words, the benefits of advanced civilization were not evenly or equitably distributed, but everyone received some benefits. The black community in America, for instance, is far behind all others due to structural legacies rooted in racist prejudice, but they are far better off than when slavery was legal and the South started a Civil War to keep their slaves!
Things like the welfare system and gun control as well as abortion, all of which disproportionately effect the black community, are all rooted in structural thinking that was itself a product of racial prejudice. It’s not that society today is based on systemic racism, it is that some legacy structures were a product of racial bigotry. What is interesting and informative is that most people and politicians who invoke accusations of white guilt and systemic racism still desire to perpetuate racist structural thinking, like gun control, abortion, the welfare system, and dumbing down educational standards.
What the world is about to witness, as the cycles of civilization draw a close to the more “golden” ages these civilizations experienced, mostly (but far from exclusively) thanks to Western Civilization, is a major reduction in the leading indicators of a healthy civilization. For instance, in the US, the lifespan of all populations decreased for the first time since World War Two and, we can say, most everyone in every population group has seen their level of personal freedom decreased over the past 40 years.
Even if you argue, as we also do, that the degree of racial prejudice 40 years ago was higher, despite the woke communists’ insistence everyone is racist today, the degree of personal freedom experienced by a black person in the 1980s was more than they, or almost anyone save the ruling class, experience today!
What we are witnessing is the decline of multiple civilizations, led by the spiritual and moral collapse of Western culture as it embraces all the typical traits of a dying civilization, mainly the destruction of extended families followed by the destruction of nuclear families. By the 1980s the collapse of extended families within close-knit trust communities had been solidified and the atomization of the individual was in full swing, prompted by the “baby boomer, me generation” and their utter rejection of moral standards in the 60s and 70s.
No generation in America history has been more problematic to its country and people than the Baby Boomers who made selfishness and moral depravity their creed, although many “boomers” rejected and resisted, and still do, all of that. But one cannot blame the “boomers.” Their period of “social experimentation” and “sexual liberation” was really not a unilateral act they themselves willed into being, it was a historical process effected by utter exhaustion after two massively destructive “world wars” perpetuated mostly as Western Civilization began “trying on” the stages of authoritarianism.
We want our youth back, but we don’t want to repeat the mistakes of our youth!
For this reason, some will, as always happens, seek to restore their old civilization’s original spirit. Even if they, like us, feel that the best their civilization offered wasn’t equitably distributed to all and wish to rectify that, they basically want to keep their old civilization alive by making it young again. This is really like an older person who would love their youth back but who would also make changes in their behavior and choices if they could turn the clock back.
Civilizations, like individual human beings who are the “interdependent atoms” and whose extended families are the core constituent entities of a civilization, cannot turn back the clock. Their eventual death is written in stone and no human being can unwrite it.
Trying to revive and perpetuate any civilization, to get its youth back and learn from its youthful mistakes, to make its new golden age more equitable and fair to everyone is, to be blunt, a fantasy.
So where does that leave the global denizen who looks all around and sees not one major civilization or land where freedom rooted in virtue, liberty, and independence prevails? What does a world look like when every major civilization is in a state of decline and where the clock cannot be turned back nor the coming age of depraved authoritarianism cannot be stayed?
Those who solely focus on the decline and fall of existing civilizations often forget another part of the cycle of history: the genesis of new civilizations always begins both within and outside of declining civilizations. The cycle of dying and the cycle of birthing overlap. The new emerges as an internal exile from the systems and structures of the old. People who cannot and will not cosign the cultural milieu of a dying civilization withdraw internally or are banished, like being deplatformed in our era, and find alt forms of sociocultural and socioeconomic life and connectedness.
It is argued that almost every new civilization emerges from some desire to restore or regain the youthful vigor of an older civilization that is dying or has died. Many of those who today feel they are defending “Western Tradition” and seeking to restore Western Civilization to spiritual and moral health, learning from past mistakes, will mostly end up planting the spiritual, philosophical, and ideological seeds of the new civilization.
As Jesus warned people to understand the times and seasons and to recognize the hour of their visitation, we must be wise as well. We live in a dual-reality, if we recognize, and the reality we choose to swim within is the reality that will control our life on this earth. Even if we personally, through faith in Christ, are bound for heaven, if we choose the wrong earthly reality, it will have a direct impact on this life and an influence on the life to come because we will not have fulfilled all that needed to be fulfilled in this life.
The only two realities a modern human in the 21st century can swim within are the latter day decline and fall of every major civilization or the genesis period wherein the new civilization emerges heart to heart, family to family, within those increasingly barbaric societies. Even if you do not consciously choose, your choice will be made for you and the default choice is to flow along the course of the dying civilization.
The new civilization is coming. This is always the case.
But what will it look like, what will its ideals and culture look like?
The new always has a spiritual and moral purity to it that the old can no longer fathom or tolerate. What is more, the new can emerge and survive in kernels of people and communities within the old for multiple centuries before it finally dies!
Even if you understand the new civilization and its ideals and if you practice them, they may be a boon to your personal life and that of your fellow travelers, but you may not live to see the establishment of your civilization as someone separated from the old civilizations. You will, however, experience the spirit of the new civilization which will enable you to fulfill purposes and designs for your life which would be hindered within the cultural milieu of the old civilization.
The ideals of the new civilization, as we see it, based on the perfecting and spiritual purification of the ideals of four primary antecedent civilizations, include a modernized and Judeo-Christian interpretation and balanced application of Unity in diversity, Popular sovereignty, Democratic equality, and Rule of law.
Let your “old” understanding of these terms, which is polluted by the spirit depravity all around you, go. For instance, Democratic equality hearkens to a free and equitable marketplace of goods, services, and ideas within a just and fair competitive, and yet collaborative, free enterprise structure. The perfect democracy is a form of meritocracy that seeks to ensure every human being has an equal and fair starting point while leaving nobody behind. And by meritocracy we do not mean the rule of the most capable among the most privileged! Our concept of participatory free association based on our merit (including character, fidelity, integrity, and capability and not JUST capability) is equitable and fair and reaches to the worst off to elevate them to an equal standing.
If we explored all these ideals in their roots we would find their more “modern” definitions to be a twisted perversion of their original spirit. Rule of law isn’t slavish devotion to an arbitrary legal code, it is a balance of law based on proven laws of cause and effect, the individual’s and the common good, and both the consensus of the people and the merit of the lawmakers and law enforcers.
Briefly, we find the ideals of the new civilization written within the best and most generous understanding of four primary antecedent civilizations: Unity in diversity from Western Civilization, Popular sovereignty from the Germanic civilization, Democratic equality from the Greco-Roman Civilization, and Rule of law from the Hebrew civilization.
In every way, the new civilization’s symbols, language, culture, and even architecture takes new forms that, while they may superficially resemble old forms, and be founded on the most ancient and sacred institutions, transcend everything that currently exists.
For this reason, we sat that this doesn’t mean the new civilization is merely the offspring of these primary antecedent civilizations. It means, however, that the core ideals of the new are mostly, but not exclusively, to be discovered in the core ideal of these civilization. If we understand their core ideal, each had only one, in its purity and in its original spirit, not in its imperfect and hypocritical application, we find a deeper and sublime truth.
It is through understanding these ideals, balancing them within the ancient and sacred blueprints of civilization we find in Holy Writ, namely the Bible, that we discover a path whereby we can immerse ourselves into the new reality, the emergence of a new civilization, that is the only path to escape from the downward pull of the old reality, the death of an old civilization.
The dual realities compete for every heart and every family and community of people and each of us gets a choice. In fact, this is a radical new advancement in human civilization itself: never before have humans both had such a complete understanding of the cycles of civilization and never has it been possible for almost everyone on the planet to choose which of these two realities they desire to immerse themselves within.

Either way, the man is facing time behind bars for 8 months for whatever happened to January 6th that he allegedly contributed to……
