Genocide in Europe – it will happen again

Today I will start to fulfil a promise that I made at the beginning of 2015 to examine a matter that most people do not want to read about – genocide, and also the killing of human beings based on ideology and dogma, or for the common good, or because it is just convenient to do so. This will be a series of articles and I begin by reminding you that the Nazi programme of genocide perpetrated against the Jewish people, gypsies, the disabled, Slavic peoples, and homosexuals, was not a unique event. It has happened in several places in the world since the end of the Second World War, including Europe. The list is already long:

Nazi Germany and “The Holocaust”

Cambodia

Rwanda

Bosnia

Darfur

These are just the cases people are willing to accept as being genocide, for when one starts to study this matter one discovers that genocide has never happened – collective denial is one of the characteristics of genocide. Genocide is what the bad people (our enemies) do, but we, democracy loving European peoples (and those on our side), would never do such a thing! History though tells a different story, but most do not want to know about this – collective denial!

As for all those Europeans who, after the Second World War, thought it would never happen again in Europe– well, Bosnia proved they were wrong! And the same goes for those Europeans who now think that it will not happen a third time – it will, and the architects of the next genocide will be those who subscribe to the secular Abrahamic religion known as Western science. And the model for it has already being created and implemented, only most people are not willing to admit that this is the case – collective denial!

More on these matters to follow …

UKIP – extremists masquerading as respectable politicians

It would be easy to dismiss UKIP as a political party composed of “nutcases and fruitcakes”, to use the colloquial. And indeed this is how they are often portrayed. This however is dangerous, for behind the apparent lunacy there is a pernicious right-wing ideology – one of classification, the emphasis of differences, and exclusion, with the implication that these “others” are not  like “us”, and are in someway, suffering from a “deficit” which ultimately makes them “lesser people”. In the eyes of UKIP, people are to be treated differently and excluded because of their – ethnic origins, race, social status, and who knows what else. Hence the comments, recently reported in the press, made by one UKIP general election candidate, that “benefit claimants should be banned from driving.” This follows on from other words spoken by a UKIP MEP, who, it is said, called for “unemployed people to be banned from voting.” Classification, emphasis of differences, and exclusion! So be in no doubt that UKIP is a right-wing nationalist party.

Does this sound familiar? It should do, for it is the basis on which apartheid in South Africa was based, and the segregation of whites and blacks in the southern states of the USA, and Nazi policy towards … everyone who did not fit with their perverse views of what constituted a normal human being. It is also the basis upon which the European slave trade was based. It is also one of the steps that leads to genocide.

So how will UKIP’ policies evolve with regard to those from places like Romanian, for the unemployed, for those claiming benefits, for homosexuals, for others that do not fit with their perverse views of what constitutes a normal human being? Perhaps a special badge – a yellow star for example … This is the second step towards genocide – symbolisation.

And UKIP are not the only extremists trying to wear the cloak of respectability. Scientists also classify and differentiate people, for anyone who now questions science is seen as being different, and in someway suffering from a deficit that requires “special treatment”. And here lies a hidden danger, for extremist can be found in unexpected places, like for example, in the offices of chief scientific advisors and former ones too. It now time to take a peaceful stand against extremism in all forms, before the social, economic, and political conditions become such that the extremists’ simplistic ideas and solutions begin to look attractive, for this too is one of the steps on the road to genocide.

Better and more communication - it seems to be the answer to everything!

Scientist claim it and so do politicians: “What we need,” they say, “is more communication.” Then, so the belief goes, people will understand and everything will be fine.

Looking at an email from the European Commission’s DG CONNECT newsroom, I see that the new President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, has made better communication with the public a priority. We are to be helped to understand what the EU does and how it affects us.

This implies that we are suffering from a deficit and that through communication we will be helped to realise just how wonderful the EU is, and then all will be well.

Let me now look at the best evidence for this statement. Oh dear! I cannot find any.

Now I turn to science. Here to we are being told that we are suffering from a deficit and that through communication we will be helped to realise just how wonderful Western science is, and then all will be well.

Let me now look at the best evidence for this statement. Oh dear! I cannot find any.

Best evidence it seems is something that arises when one is seeking to push a particular agenda, but at all other times, scientists are just like everyone else – expressing their beliefs and opinions, which is actually what they do when they pushing a particular agenda too, it is just that then they hide behind a cloak of respectability and say, in effect, “trust me I am scientist.”  Not a chance.

In both cases that I mentioned above, you will note that there are no thoughts that there may be things fundamentally wrong (in the first case with the EU and in the second, with Western science), with the result that we, the people, will always look upon both with distrust and scepticism.

So why is this important? In Europe we see a rise, once more, of nationalism and the nasty things that go with it – yet more dogma and perverse views. More extremism! And it may just be possible that the EU is responsible for this, and by refusing to consider the notion that there is something fundamentally wrong, the EU could be fuelling the rise of nationalism. It is the old problem of collective denial and delusion, and an inclination of the human mind to reduce matters to statements of simple problems with simple solutions. The same goes for scientists as well – simplification and reduction is what they excel at. And it is we ordinary people who will pay the price for this – more human suffering and misery resulting from the actions of  dogmatic people inflicting their simple solutions, their final solutions, on the rest of humanity.

It is time to take peaceful action to stop this while we can.

70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau

This coming Tuesday 27th January 2015 is the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the Nazi death camp, where mass slaughter of human beings was undertaken on a scale beyond human comprehension.

The horror of this place stands as a stark reminder of what Europeans – a so-called civilised people, products of that period known as The Enlightenment – are capable of. Auschwitz-Birkenau is a direct product of The Enlightenment.

Now would not be an appropriate moment to write a long essay. All I will do is restrict myself to observing that Europeans have not learned the lessons of Auschwitz and will do this again. It is part of European culture. All it takes is the creation of the right social, economic and political conditions to trigger them into action – the conditions that Europeans and their culture are now creating. And western science, with its perverse ideology, will be at the forefront of creating the next holocaust.

The sword wielding, goose stepping, hatred preaching extremists are the easy ones to spot. Less obvious are the ones wearing the cloak of respectability like scientific extremists. Many times they all share one thing in common – they are the slaves of dogma and see the world only through the blinkers of whatever that dogma happens to be, like for example, the perverse belief that humans are machines, which provides one the of elements that enables genocide, killing in the name of dogma and the common good, and convenience killings – dehumanisation.

The great tragedy is that few will listen and take note of this warning which is one of the reasons why humanity just keeps repeating the same mistakes, over and over again.

Industry does not trust industry

This week I return to the why so smart yet so dumb comment; “we trust industry when it suits us”. I still find it hard to believe that anyone can be so out-of-touch, so silly, so … as to utter such words – well that is scientists for you! The rule of science and reason! God help us, for we will truly need divine help if ever this lunatic fringe gain power. But I digress.

As I write this, I have by my side a letter from a major financial institution, informing me about a change in approach for one of their ethical funds that form part of my pension investments. The announcement is about a tightening and strengthening of their investment criteria. Previously, the principles that have guided the fund have been quite broad (vague), and can be summarised as:

• Exclude companies that do not meet certain ethical standards or that harm society;
• Support companies that make a positive contribution to society, and
• Encourage better business practices through shared ownership and dialogue.

Even in this set of broad criteria one can see a clear recognition that there are companies that harm society and that should not be trusted. And I was very glad to see that in future, a stronger set of principles will be in force, with a clear identification of some of these not to be trusted industries. The new principles are:

• The exclusion of companies that are involved with the production of tobacco, alcohol, arms, nuclear power, pornography, and gambling, or practices such as unnecessary animal testing, or with unacceptable environmental or corporate standards.
• Engagement with the management of the companies in which the fund invests to encourage them to adopt corporate, social and environmental policies that meet the fund’s standards.
• Monitoring the performance of the fund against non-financial goals such as lower carbon emissions, or companies published policies and data on health and safety, diversity, etc.

The message is clear – there are many business sectors and companies that are harmful to society, to people, and to the planet. We should not trust such companies nor, I should add, people who say such stupid things as “we trust industry when it suits us”. Thankfully, some financial institutions realise this, and also recognise the need to steer clear of such sectors and businesses. But this raises the question of who will monitor the financial institution to ensure that they comply? So we are now into the matter of Second Order Cybernetics.

I will be returning to the issue of why we should not trust industry, scientists, technologists, and their representative bodies (e.g. The Royal Society), in due course, as well as addressing the matter of Second Order Cybernetics. Evidently also there are sectors of the economy that are obvious targets for policies based on de-growth, which is also something that I will turn my attention to in the future.

I conclude by saying that it is time to peacefully turn against such industries, to reject them, and to drive them out of business. And as for the scientists who justify and defend them by saying stupid things like “we trust industry when it suits us”: your time is over – you belong in the past, you are the past.

Western Science – The New Colonialism

This week’s blog entry is quite short and is written for the benefit of those in what Europeans call the developing world, or the newly industrialised nations. In particular, the blog is aimed at those in China, India and other non-European cultures, who are, once again, being invaded by Europeans – this time it is European values and beliefs that are the forefront of the take-over.

Do you recall all those enlightened Europeans who turned up on your shores, claiming ownership of your land, taking what did not belong to them, enslaving your people, forcing their culture on you, because they thought themselves, in every way possible, far superior to the indigenous peoples they encountered in this, their quest to make the world European?

Perhaps you think those days are now over? If you do, you are wrong for they are still at it – seeking to make the world European. These are the people who, as I have mentioned before, make a virtue out of living life like a plague of locusts. In the case of some countries, like the UK, these people are the decedents of slave traders, in a metaphorical sense, but they are also, in a metaphorical sense also slaves, being bound to an ideology that they do not even recognise as an ideology – western science. They are what I call free slaves – they are free to think that they are not slaves!

And because they are slaves to a dogma, they have strategic weaknesses which can be exploited to render their ways irrelevant to the future of humanity. What they cannot see and will not tolerate, is the notion that their science is entirely grounded in European culture, and that a different culture, one based on non-Abrahamic worldviews, would produce a different form of science if such a culture were to pursue a path different to that of Europeans (if they were to be allowed to!).

The inability of most European to accept that science is culturally based is grounded in the dogma of the one best way – which is social Darwinism. Countries like China and India should reject this, for it is yet another example of European colonialism, which has in the past, and will continue in the future, to bring great suffering to the peoples of the world. Is it not now time to rid the world of such suffering by rendering Europeans and their strange beliefs irrelevant?

Western science = control, domination, subjugation, sole truths, machine-centric thinking, collective denial and delusion, and all the damage and destruction that goes with these things. It is neo-colonialism. A non-European science = balance, harmony, recognition that in human matters everything is about behaviour which affects perceptions of reality, … The story is just beginning and will be continued in future blogs.

2015 Begins

This week I review that which I plan to cover and to focus on in my blogs during 2015. The overarching theme will be scientists and their collective delusions, the need for controls and to make scientists legally accountable for their work, and the consequences for humanity if we leave science under the control of scientists, which brings me to my first issue.

Coming up very soon is the 70th anniversary of the discovery and liberation by Soviet forces of the Nazi death camp Auschwitz. To remember this “very” European horror story and its roots in Enlightenment and scientific thinking, I will be considering in my blogs how this was not an aberration, but a manifestation of European culture, and part of a long history of crimes against humanity that have been perpetrated by Europeans, not only against other Europeans, but also against non-Europeans. And to remind the complacent who think that this will never happen again in Europe, I will be reminding them that it already has.

Also on my topic list for this year, continuing my scrutiny of European values, I will be considering (what people think of as a Nazi concept of) Untermenschen, and showing that it is part of European culture and that it is still very much alive and well and flourishing in Europe. I will also be returning to the matter of convenience killings which are related to the concept of Untermenschen, and exploring how this links with the scientific mind. I shall also be highlighting the foundations of science, engineering and technology that are closely linked to Untermenschen.

Scientists and their Will to Power, which manifests itself in their quest for control and domination of nature, of humanity and of human societies (through their attempts to establish the rule of science and reason) will also figure in my blogs. And a good dose of ridicule will also appear, for there is often nothing more ridiculous than scientists who think that their self-constructed realities are reality – the word, the image, the theory are not the thing!

The above I will however put into the wider context of the Will to Power, to remind everyone, that regardless of the orientation – religious, secular, intellectual, political, economic – the Will to Power affects most humans, and that consequently we need to construct a different type of society to that which we have today. Hence it is time to start considering how ordinary people can begin peacefully, and with great humanity, to disengage from the unsustainable civilisation in which they find themselves trapped. I will thus be discussing the notion of a syncretic society where scientific, religious, political, economic and other types of Abrahamic extremists will not be able to flourish. And if people want such a world, they should starting building it themselves, for most politicians and their Chief Advisors are not going to be creating for them, for their Will to Power is very much based on maintaining what exists today, and if that is allowed to happen then one day in the not too distance future, we will all have to pay a terrible price for this.

I promised you a storm and now you can see how it will take shape!
