The Illuminati Series – Book 1/6:
Blurb:
“Neither by land nor by sea shalt thou find the road to the Hyperboreans.” –Pindar
No secret society is more controversial than the Illuminati, yet almost nothing of the truth of this mysterious ancient Order is available in the public record. Propaganda, misinformation, disinformation, paranoia and downright fantasy are rife. Some have even described the Illuminati as pan-dimensional, shape-shifting Reptilians from another world!
The Illuminati have become the peg upon which anyone can hang their favourite and most outlandish conspiracy theories. They are the “men behind the curtain”, the “ultimate puppet-masters”, fascists, communists, bankers, Jews, monarchists, anti-monarchists, lizards, you name it. They support “big” government, high taxes and the sinister New World Order, based on a single global currency. They want to build death camps and reduce the world’s population to one billion souls.
So much for the penny-dreadful nonsense churned out by the simple minded pied pipers of Conspiracy World.
The truth of the real Illuminati is enormously more fascinating. The present Grand Master of the Illuminati has authorized the release into the public arena, for the very first time, of the facts concerning the ancient Order.
Now you can discover for yourself the extraordinary nature of this secret society, its esoteric Gnostic and Hermetic religion known as Illumination, and how it represents the greatest hope for humanity in overthrowing the Devil-worshiping Abrahamic religions and the Old World Order of elite, dynastic families of privilege that run the planet, such as the Bush family, the Rothschilds and the British royal family.
It’s time to build a meritocratic world, a world free of privilege and religious brainwashing, a world where the super-rich are brought down to earth.
It’s time for a New World Order where humanity can devote itself to its true purpose: creating a Community of Gods, a Society of the Divine. Don’t you want to join the greatest adventure in human history? The Illuminati offer nothing less than ultimate transformation, and the truth concerning the supreme object of humanity’s spiritual quest – the Holy Grail itself.

A Book Review:
“Another excellent book from a series of excellent books by the Pythagorean Illuminati. The Pythagorean Illuminati are an ancient secret society of rational free thinkers. Some of the most creative geniuses in history have been members of the Illuminati such as: Plato, Hegel, Goethe, Leibniz, Weishaupt, Simon Magus, Hypatia, and many others. The Illuminati are Meritocrats and Gnostics. They are trying to change this world from the hell that it is for so many people on this planet to a much more equal, just, altruistic, and rational place for EVERYONE. How that goal can sound like a wicked thing to so many people just shows how far the people in this world have descended into selfishness, irrationality, madness, and lets just be honest, evil.
All of the books by the Illuminati contain information from many interesting and challenging subjects. The Illuminati have integrated mathematics, science, psychology, history, politics, sociology, religion, philosophy, and the paranormal into what scientists have been searching for years: A Grand Unified Theory of Everything. Every book is very well written. The authors have passion for what they are writing and that passion rubs off on the reader. You will constantly find yourself wanting to read just one more page. Some of the content in the Illuminati’s books can be intellectually challenging but the authors are so talented and understand their subject material so well that they make the information understandable to everyone.
The Illuminati are serious people who want to change the world. The books they write are meant for other serious people with a burning desire for a better world for all. If you are not looking to help build a more rational, and just world then read something else. If, on the other hand, a better world is something you can’t stop thinking about then these are your books. If you feel drawn towards the ideas of the Illuminati, then you need to read all of these books asap. You should also check out the Illuminati’s website www.armageddonconspiracy.c
Some of the reviews for this book make me laugh and then sigh. On the book description the Illuminati tell certain people not to read these books. They specifically tell conspiracy theorists and abrahamists to read something else yet inevitably conspiracy theorists and abrahamists read the books and become angered. They then get so mad that they have to jump on Amazon and give an angry review. Why do these people waste their time reading something they hate? It makes no sense to me. I especially love the reviews of this book by Spazmonkey, Tracy Manning, and Higheyecue “Visionary”. The reviews from these three people are completely ridiculous and should be ignored.
This book gives an excellent overview of the philosophy of the Illuminati. It is the perfect book to begin your journey into the most amazing and unique information imaginable. People just starting to read these books have to understand that if they want to get the most out of the Illuminati’s work then they should read all of the books. The philosophy of the Illuminati is not something you can grasp in one book. The Illuminati are in the process of explaining nothing less than life’s greatest mysteries. You can’t explain the most important issues in life in 150 pages. So far these three authors have written over 8,000,000 words describing the most crucial information imaginable and have offered almost all of it for free via their website. I can’t believe that everyone in the world isn’t reading these books. It’s even more shocking to me that many of the people who are reading these books are giving them bad reviews. The Illuminati may not be saying what you want to hear but that doesn’t change the fact that they speak the truth. How do you give the truth a bad review? It’s insane.” –BG

This is a hybrid, a dialectical synthesis, of capitalism (thesis) and socialism (antithesis), preserving what is best in each and discarding the rest. The economic macrostructure – by which we mean banks, stock markets and regulatory bodies – are all controlled by expert, meritocratic, publicly accountable officials who will be dismissed without compensation for poor performance, and who will never receive outrageously disproportionate bonuses simply for doing their job. They will be rewarded for providing stable growth. The economic microstructure will be capitalist – individuals and collectives can set up businesses and trade without State interference. There will be competition, profits, markets, choice and everything that is good about capitalism, with none of the downsides. The State Bank, not private banks, will lend to businesses.
This new form of social capitalism will ensure that no capitalist individuals ever become so rich that they can dictate to governments. We will not be ruled by banks or capitalist corporations that are outside the political system and unaccountable to the people and that can leave the country if they so wish. We will be ruled only by officials who can be fired by the people if they do a bad job.
Just as it would be insane to entrust the defence of a nation to private armies with their own agendas (they would start wars to boost their share price!), it’s insane to entrust the economic defence and stability of a nation to private banks and corporations with their own private agendas that have nothing to do with the welfare of the State and the people. That’s why the infrastructure of the State must be socialist (for the people) rather than capitalist (for private individuals).
We are not communists. We are rational capitalists who appreciate the strengths and weaknesses of both capitalism and socialism and see how they can be integrated in a natural and highly productive way. This is an economic evolution, not revolution.
There will be no more vast multinational corporations that blackmail governments: all corporations and companies will be small or medium sized; they will be bespoke and integrated with their communities and nations, working in harmony with the State to bring prosperity to all of the people.
There will be no more casino banking, banks that are “too big to fail”, hedge funds, “shorting”, and speculative financial derivatives instruments . There will be no more psychopathic spivs and speculators driving the economy into the ground in pursuit of higher profits and bonuses for themselves. We will thus bring to an end the insane cycles of boom and bust that characterise free-market capitalism and which devastate the lives of so many innocent victims.
We will replace the “testosterone” modus operandi of free-market capitalism with the “oestrogen” of social capitalism i.e. women rather than aggressive young men will become far more prominent. We will seed society with metaphorical “oxytocin” – the Moral Molecule – that increases bonding, harmony and community. At the moment we have a testosterone society given over to selfishness, self-interest and ruthless competition between families and individuals as they all fight to be top dog.
Testosterone has had a good run for its money. Now it’s time for an oestrogen and oxytocin society without boom and bust, without aggression, without savage, destructive competition.
You want a new society, a new economy? – meritocratic social capitalism delivers everything you want. It ends boom and bust. It ends the rule of elite, dynastic families of extreme privilege who rig the game of life in their own favour. Everyone, regardless of sex, race, sexual orientation or background gets an equal opportunity.
Consider these two questions:
1) Is it rational for a political process to elect “leaders” who have no actual power because all of the real power resides with external super rich individuals, banks and corporations that can use their wealth and power to buy the political system and enforce their will? Can anyone deny that banks, corporations and the super rich tell Presidents what to do? If the President is the embodiment of the will of the people, it means that unelected and unaccountable banks, corporations and super rich individuals are telling the people what to do. That’s what democracy has delivered: a system in which the people get to choose a powerless figurehead who simply does what the non-elected, unaccountable elite decide. Therefore democracy must be abolished. No political system supposedly operating in the interest of all the people can be subject to external influence by groups and individuals that have no interest at all in the well-being of the people. Is Wall Street on the side of Main Street? You’d need to be insane to think so. Who shapes government policy – Wall Street or Main Street? Is there any question? Which institution has its fingers in every pie all across the world? – the Zionist-Masonic leviathan of Goldman Sachs. Goldman Sachs runs the world. Haven’t you realised that yet? Solution? – CLOSE DOWN GOLDMAN SACHS AND BAN ALL OF ITS OFFICIALS FROM SERVING IN GOVERNMENT. Simple!
2) Is it rational for dynastic families – such as the Rothschilds – to be able to use their incredible wealth and power to dictate the shape of the world generation after generation, and always in their own favour? Why should a rich family of today be allowed to determine the fortunes and prospects of the families of the future? How do you prevent a rich and powerful family from arranging the future to suit itself i.e. to guarantee its descendants a luxury life regardless of merit? You can stop the super rich controlling the future once and for all by introducing 100% inheritance tax. This automatically means the end of dynastic family rule. It means the end of privilege and the rise of equal opportunities and a world of merit.
Isn’t it time to join the meritocratic movement of social capitalism and equal opportunities? This is a real political movement with actual solutions for the ills of the world. Don’t protest mindlessly against the ruling regime. REPLACE THEM. Meritocratic social capitalism will inevitably replace democratic free-market capitalism. Meritocratic social capitalism is the dialectical successor of democratic free-market capitalism. The Old World Order has had its day. It has hit the dialectical buffers. Now it’s time for the New World Order based on merit, social justice and equal opportunities.
Bring the rule of the rich bankers to an end.
Bring the rule of the global corporations to an end.
Bring the rule of democratic puppet politicians in the paid service of the elite to an end. Bring the rule of dynastic families of privilege to an end.
MERITOCRATIC SOCIAL CAPITALSIM – THE DIALECTICAL FUTURE.
Why do you allow 1% of the people to control 33-42% of the wealth? Are you the biggest suckers of all time? How can you stand any reasonable chance in life if 1% of the people have gathered approaching half of the nation’s resources for themselves? All of those resources are not accessible to you and in fact are designed to perpetuate the wealth and power of the 1% i.e. they are an active weapon being used against you.
The elite don’t care about you. They have no interest in your welfare. They don’t want you to succeed. They don’t want anyone anywhere to challenge their hegemony. They have used religions such as Judaism, Christianity and Islam to make the people slaves, to keep them terrified and on their knees. What is the concept of hell if not a terrorist tactic to terrify superstitious and stupid people into submission? Islam means submission. To be a Muslim is to declare yourself a slave of God. What sort of sick person imagines that God is a slavemaster or that he’s interested in sending people to perpetual hell? God is reason, well-being and health. He’s not some sick fuck psychopath who wants people bowing to him and perpetually terrified of him. He doesn’t order fathers to kill their children as Jehovah/Allah ordered Abraham. Everyone who bows to “God” is a slave.
It’s time for humanity to escape the Age of Slavery; the Age of Abrahamism. Judaeo- Christianity goes hand-in-hand with democratic free-market capitalism.
We are advocates of the dialectic of freedom and choice. We are opposed to those who use money as a weapon to advance their own interests and damage those of everyone else. Rich parents do not spend a fortune sending their children to elite private schools and colleges because they are interested in YOUR success. They want you to fail. You are designed to fail. That’s why you went to shit schools and had shit teachers. You’re factory fodder.
The elite don’t want trash like you competing with them, so they arrange the whole system to ensure that you can NEVER compete. What’s more, they even get you to agree to being a second class citizen. Well, if you didn’t agree you would be trying to overthrow them, wouldn’t you? Since you’re doing nothing to advance the cause of meritocracy (which means the complete destruction of all systems of privilege, especially private education for the rich elite) then you’re clearly assisting the elite and you agree with them that they should be on the top tier of life while you should be a second-class citizen.
Ultimately, people are treated like shit because they want to be and deserve to be. If they didn’t, they would fight. They’re not fighting ergo they’re content with their lot. Q.E.D.
Get off your ass and start shouting about meritocracy from the rooftops and advocating the one measure that is sure to destroy the rich elite – 100% inheritance tax. Stop the rigged game of life. End the cartels, monopolies and oligopolies. Stop the robber barons and carpetbaggers, the spivs and speculators.
Meritocracy is about turning politics into science, about applying the scientific method to create better and better answers to all social, psychological and political problems. The rich despise science because most of them are hopeless scientifically. Science is not included in “cultural capital”. Science is the subject of true merit because no one can bullshit their way through science, and privileged connections won’t take you far unless you actually know what you’re talking about. A technocratic society run by scientists, mathematicians, technologists and engineers is a disaster for the elite.
__________
100% inheritance tax:
What do the elite fear above all? – having their wealth taken from them. What does 100% inheritance tax achieve? Precisely that – the complete and irrevocable end of dynastic wealth.
Imagine a world in which the rich realised they would lose all of their money and assets to the Commonwealth at their death. They would have to spend, spend, spend, wouldn’t they? A huge amount of cash and assets would be pumped into the economy. Recession would turn into growth and this time there would be no boom and bust economic cycle because there would no longer be any point in the rich seeking to bend every rule in the book to make themselves richer, knowing that all of their money would eventually end up with the Commonwealth.
The world can be changed overnight – just by stopping the rich elite in their tracks. If you really do believe in the 99% versus the 1% then demand the introduction of the tax that guarantees the victory of the 99% percent – 100% INHERITANCE TAX, the bedrock of meritocracy. Anyone who opposes 100% inheritance tax is a friend of privilege and the rich elite. Anyone who opposes 100% inheritance tax is a supporter of a two-tier society where those who can pass on resources are the winners and the rest are losers: permanent second class citizens.
Merit or privilege? Meritocracy or democracy? Free-market capitalism or social capitalism?
IT’S TIME TO CHOOSE.
100% inheritance tax could be combined with a general cancellation of debts. The rich are the creditors and the poor are the debtors. Debt cancellation instantly transfers wealth from the elite to the ordinary people. The rich got us into this crisis so why shouldn’t they pay?
Debt cancellation would lead to the collapse of the banking system and the stock market. Capitalism would become insolvent. GOOD!!!! The State could then take control of the banking sector, the stock market and the corporate sector and start implementing social capitalism. The former elite would no longer have any power, wealth, influence or voice. Isn’t that what we all want? Why were the elite bailed out in 2008 and the ordinary people saddled with huge debts to pay for it? Why are bankrupt banks paying out vast bonuses at the taxpayers’ expense?!
It’s time for the people to take charge of their own destiny. That means having the courage to say “No” to the elite.
On the “Path of Illumination” facebook page, MS said: “Just yesterday I had a discussion with someone about 100% inheritance tax. They started to disagree and said why should an inheritance that I want to pass on to my child be taxed 100% and how am I supposed to ensure that he/she gets what I worked hard for? I offered the solution to teach your child about the business you set up from A to Z. Everything that you learned, make sure he/she learns. That way he’ll have the knowledge, which is more valuable than having the money, and then he can rejuvenate this business that you started and even improve it, rather than giving everything that you worked for to him/her just to have it run into the ground. The perfect rebuttal to the antagonism of the 100% inheritance tax!”
This is an excellent answer, but it also reveals the disturbing selfishness and lack of community spirit of the other individual. The person questioning 100% inheritance tax is only thinking of his own private situation. He doesn’t care about children who aren’t the beneficiaries of rich parents or parents who “worked hard” (whatever that means: no highly paid businessman ever works as hard as a poorly paid coal miner! – in fact, there’s almost an inverse relationship between hard work and how much you get paid). He puts ZERO thought into their welfare. In other words, he has tacitly declared war on them. If he cares nothing about them and wishes to disadvantage them by passing on benefits to his children that are unavailable to other children, why shouldn’t they display equal contempt towards him and have zero consideration towards his welfare and that of his children? In fact, why shouldn’t they make his life hell on earth?
DS said, “When I first read about the tax, I thought ‘Ooh, that’s a bit steep!’ But when I contemplated it, and learned more about the AOI’s vision of a better future, the fairer it looked. Something that occurred to me is that in actual fact, it is already in place in Australia for the little guy anyway! More so, the government squeezes the money out of you BEFORE you die!! I won’t blabber on how (nursing homes, etc.). And the little guy doesn’t fathom the rich person’s world and the astronomical riches they hoard. We are just so used to being screwed by The Powers That Be that we initially mistake it for another way to be screwed. As Captain Picard said in the Star Trek movie: “The economics of our time are somewhat different to yours(ours).”
DS is absolutely right. Anyone who has nothing to pass on has already been subjected to 100% inheritance tax while alive.
People who transmit overwhelming financial advantages to their children are effectively determining the shape of the future and disadvantaging the children of poor parents. No one has any legal or moral right to do harm to others. Every time the super rich hand on vast wealth, they are actively harming everyone who is denied the same access to this wealth. They have therefore committed a crime against those others, just as if they had mugged them or robbed them.
MS said, “I couldn’t agree with you more DS. With the application of the 100% inheritance tax and then social capitalism with meritocracy, things would not only change, but vastly improve. But first as I said in an earlier post, each country (I used America as an example since that’s where I’m from) needs to break free of the OWO debt-based currency and wipe out their deficits so that we can really start fresh. As long as the OWO has each country by the balls with their debt-based currency, nothing will change.”
That’s right again.
As soon as you overcome the OWO’s endless propaganda on behalf of the hereditary transmission of wealth, you realise that’s it’s just another version of the hereditary right to rule of medieval monarchs. Why should the children of the future be subjected to the rule of the children of today’s monarchs (as in the UK)? If people alive today wish to be the subjects of a monarch, that’s their choice – but they cannot choose on behalf of unborn generations too. They have no such right.
The principle of heredity is that the unborn should be subject to the conditions of the present, rather than having the inalienable right to choose for themselves how they wish to run things.
Inheritance is precisely that attempt by some families (the elite) to make themselves perpetually superior. 100% inheritance tax is the absolute remedy to their machinations, the guaranteed way to prevent the elite succeeding in their arrogant and narcissistic ambitions to rule the world in perpetuity.
How can any self-respecting human being object to be judged on their own merits and efforts rather than those of their parents? Honourable men and women should be appalled and insulted that anyone wishes to give them an inheritance that they themselves did not earn.
For an adult, it should be a thing of shame to parasitically profit from the earnings of others, even if those others are your parents. Will you be a permanent appendage of your parents? Can’t you make your own way in life? Are you too feeble, too inept, too untalented to carve your own path in life and prosper from your own efforts?

The Libyan Revolution:
So, a brutal tyrant got what he deserved after being dragged from a sewer pleading for the mercy that he never showed anyone else. A few weeks ago, he was in a luxury palace, but then he took the journey from palace to gutter – shouldn’t the global elite join him? Yet there was something extraordinarily disturbing about the events in Libya. Every Muslim shown on TV – men, women and children – incessantly yelled the cry of all Islamic suicide bombers, the cry of the 9/11 mass murderers: Allahu Akbar! (God is Great). Not once did any of them say anything else.
Why didn’t the freedom fighters who did all the hard work, took all the risks and did all the fighting yell, “WE ARE GREAT!” Where the fuck was “Allah”? Where was his contribution? Why did the fighters attribute victory to Allah and not to themselves? Moreover, by the “logic” of the Libyan revolutionaries, the decades of tyranny they endured were also the will of Allah i.e. he deliberately inflicted misery and cruelty on them. Why, therefore, didn’t they curse Allah during all those long years? Allah can never lose in this game. He is thanked and glorified for victory but never blamed and reviled for defeat. This is a one-way bet. Such a system in which a certain figure is revered in all circumstances is a manifestation of absolute brainwashing.
All Muslims are robotic. There’s no point in talking to them because you already know what they’re going to say. They will simply repeat their Koranic programming over and over again. They won’t say anything radical. They won’t engage in any freethinking. They won’t exercise free speech. They won’t talk about humanism, atheism, agnosticism, skepticism, science, philosophy, enlightenment. All they will ever say, to the point of nausea, is Allahu Akbar, Inshallah (Allah willing) and As-Salamu `Alaykum (Peace be with you.)
The Libyans have got rid of one dictator but not the Cosmic Dictator who stands behind all the rest – Allah. No Muslim can ever be free. Every thought they have, every word that emerges from their mouths, is controlled by the Koran. They read that book constantly and indeed many of them memorise the whole thing. That book is completely internalised by them – it might as well be hard-wired. Every word is ingrained in their minds. They literally cannot think unKoranically. They don’t read other books and thereby have a selection of rival ideas to choose from. They don’t read anything that challenges and mocks the Koran. No, the Koran is sacrosanct and programmed into every fibre of their being. They are mind controlled in every conceivable way. In Christian countries, you can read any amount of criticism of Christianity, but there is NO CRITICISM of the Koran in Islamic countries. The idea of free speech in Islamic countries is a contradiction in terms. If you spoke out against the Koran you would be beheaded as an apostate or infidel. How can the Libyan rebels claim to be free? They don’t know the meaning of the world. Until people in Muslim countries can freely criticise, debate, condemn and joke about the Koran, Mohammed and Allah, no Muslim will EVER be free.
We encourage everyone to read Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell, the ultimate dystopian novel. In this astounding novel, Orwell shows how the totalitarian State doesn’t simply want to monitor and control your behaviour, but actually strives to create an impoverished language (“Newspeak”) that makes it impossible for you to think outside the parameters it sets. It wants to create a language that makes the very possibility of thinking subversive thoughts inconceivable. The vocabulary and grammar of the language would be so constrained, so well designed to favour the stance of the dictators, that there would be no words or grammar available to shape a free thought, a subversive idea. You would obey like an automaton because Newspeak would have so conditioned your thoughts that you could not do otherwise. Every thought you were capable of having would be defined beforehand by your mind controllers.
What could be more disturbing than the ability of dictators to shape language itself, to determine what thoughts you were able to think?
But Newspeak has already happened. IT’S THE KORAN! Muslims cannot think outside the Koranic box. Not one Muslim could ever utter the words: FUCK ALLAH! Such a formulation of words is impossible in Islam. All free thinking, skepticism, free choice and free speech is impossible in Islam. This evil religion has succeeded in making itself impregnable. It is the PERFECT brainwashing system because it has literally made criticism impossible. It does so by the 100% control of people’s thoughts, the words they are able to use, the concepts they are able to formulate.
Just as Winston Smith, the protagonist of Nineteen Eighty-Four, ended up agreeing that 2 + 2 = 5, so would any Muslim if that’s what it said in the Koran. After all, if you don’t agree with the Koran you go to hell! Who cares about reason and mathematics?!
Orthodox Judaism is every bit as bad as Islam, of course, as is Christian Fundamentalism. But so is democratic free-market capitalism. There are hundreds of millions of brainwashed Westerners who simply cannot contemplate replacing democracy or free-market capitalism. They have endured endless propaganda by the capitalist media machine to indoctrinate them. They all have the equation freedom = democracy = free speech = choice = free-market capitalism drilled into them and they are incapable of analysing this equation and finding it absurd and false in every way.
THINK! Escape from the Matrix. Challenge every idea. Use your reason. Don’t swallow the brainwashing mantras of the elite.
Meritocracy is about liberating the human mind. There can be no sacred cows. Rather than constraining what you can think, the Meritocratic Movement wants you to be able to think any thought at all – total freedom of the mind. The idea that you should be compelled to read one book over and over again and commit every word to memory is anathema and must be prevented by law. All fanatical religions that brandish “sacred texts” should be illegal. They are brainwashing machines supremely and irrevocably opposed to freedom. All ideas should be challenged, mocked, dissected, joked about. No one should have to hold back because of the religious beliefs of others. If a Christian, Muslim or Jew can’t handle their sacred books being ridiculed, burned, condemned and shown to be irrational garbage, TOO FUCKING BAD!!! We, the Movement of Dialectical Freedom, won’t allow anyone to shape our thoughts and control what we can think. If we hate YOUR gods, we will say so, and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Social Types:
Sociologist David Riesman spoke of six sociological types. First, there were the “Adjusted” (those who conform with the norms of society), the “Anomic” (the maladjusted who are at odds with social norms and often criminals or members of the underclass) and the “Autonomous” (those who can adjust to social norms when they desire, but are capable of defining and creating their own identities, regardless of society’s conventions).
Riesman subdivided the “adjusted” category into three further social types:
1) TRADITION-DIRECTED: those who subscribe to ancient ways of doing things because “things have always been done that way”; they are extremely conservative, conformist and respectful of authority; they are usually highly religious – Muslims, Christian Fundamentalists and Orthodox Jews are classic examples of tradition-directed people; these people are usually on the right or even far right of the political spectrum; they are extremely intolerant towards those who don’t share their traditions; the American Republican Party is tradition-directed and committed to “God, family and country”.
2) OTHER-DIRECTED: those who are obsessed with what their peer-group is thinking, with keeping up with the latest fashions and trends; they are terrified of being cast out from their group of friends and will adopt whatever views are adopted by everyone else; they crave the esteem, approval and recognition of their peer group; they are highly susceptible to groupthink and lack authentic individuality; they have no convictions other than that of not being seen as strange and different by others; they are highly flexible and adaptable because they are so uncommitted to any ideological stance (in complete contrast with the tradition-directed); most are liberal, relatively left wing and, in America, typically support the Democratic Party.
3) INNER-DIRECTED: these are the people who adopt their parents’ values – their parents being people of firm convictions that may be at odds with those of their local community or society at large – and use them as an unshakeable moral compass, allowing them to resist the fanatical doctrines of the tradition-directed and the obsessive pursuit of fashion and short-term gratification that characterises the other-directed; they have no clear political stance, but may be more attracted to independent candidates.
******
Are you a Settler, Prospector or Pioneer?
Contemporary sociologists have recast the tradition-, other- and inner-directed types as “Settlers”, “Prospectors” and “Pioneers”.
1) Settlers are the tradition-directed, religious, right-wing, conservative types who blabber on about God, family and country all of the time. They’re obsessed with “morality” (as defined by them, their prophets and holy books). They are highly conformist, conventional and dedicated to finding stability, security and predictability. They are obsessed with “right and wrong”, are wary of change, and have a strong sense of place; they often stay in the same place for their whole lives and have tremendous patriotic feelings. They are rule-bound – because rules provide the regulation of their lives that they crave. Settlers never think for themselves or subscribe to any new, radical ideas. They don’t read books. They are extremely set in their ways and are the primary supporters of “the establishment”. They adopt a “one-size fits all” view. Consider Islam: every Muslim reveres the Koran and no Muslim is capable of thinking in any way other than Koranically. To embrace any other type of thinking would render them no longer Muslim. Islam is a mould that all Muslims get poured into and they emerge as identikit, brainwashed Koranic machines incapable of free thought. If the Settlers had their way, everything would stay the same forever, just as the Muslims secretly want to live forever as seventh-century desert tribesmen, like their prophet Mohammed. The Koran was designed for seventh-century Arabia, so what’s the point of 21st century “truths” if you think God spoke to humanity conclusively and forever in the Koran fourteen centuries ago?
2) Prospectors are other-directed, adaptable liberals who follow fashion and whatever’s “in”. They are not slavish followers of any ancient rules, laws or customs. They can invent new moral codes as they go along, thus outraging the Settlers. Their views, their morals, their beliefs are experimental, fluid and flexible. Everything is forever changing. Prospectors are pragmatic; they want to be winners and definitely to avoid being “a loser”. They will bend rules; everything is acceptable other than “getting caught”. Prospectors, unlike the Settlers, open the door to new ways of doing things, new ideas, new religions and philosophies. They are always sifting for gold and trying to get rich quick. They are explorers, adventurers, experimentalists, those who test and push the boundaries in pursuit of new thrills. They are ambitious, enjoy success, and seek the esteem of others.
3) Pioneers are the inner-directed, with firm values. They want to be authentic and to be “true to themselves”. They are often highly intelligent, creative and unconventional. They have a global and even cosmic perspective. They are innovative, visionary and ethical, valuing community spirit.
Settlers, Prospectors and Pioneers are the three tribes who will decide whether there will be a new society or not. The Settlers will side with the establishment, hence are the enemies of the New Society. At most, they will ask for a few reforms that will soon enough be repudiated by the elite. The Settlers are terrified of anything radically new. Prospectors and Pioneers are the ones who will make the difference.
One group is the eternal enemy of progress – the Settlers. These are the religious fundamentalists, the blinkered fanatics, the right-wing conservatives, the rule-bound supporters of ancient, disproven traditions and religious beliefs. They revere authority. They are natural monarchists. They have a great desire to bow and kneel to higher powers, whether they be kings, presidents, popes or gods. They are pathetic, cowardly submissives, unable to think for themselves or challenge authority. Jews obey 620 completely pointless rules – such as not mixing wool and linen (!) and not switching on electric lights on the Sabbath – because they revere tradition and can’t imagine getting rid of all of this old, rancid, irrational, superstitious junk. What kind of human being conceives of God as someone who cares whether you are wearing something with linen AND wool, or whether you turn on a light? Such a God isn’t worthy of the name. In the humanity of five hundred years from now, Settlers will no longer exist. They will be as extinct as the dinosaurs. They can’t adapt. They are stuck in the past and can’t move forward, so the dialectic will leave them behind and they will fade into oblivion.
What’s our core message? Never kneel to anyone, including “God”. Never bow to anyone. Reject anyone who wants to establish a master-slave relationship with you as the slave. If “God” wants to be your master, fuck God. Never be a Muslim, Jew or Christian. These people are barely human. They are pathetic slaves who regard God as a terrifying monster who threatens people with eternal hellfire. God doesn’t threaten anyone. Why would he? Fuck any “God” who threatens you. He’s the Devil. Respect yourself. Free yourself. Know yourself.
“The way you change things is by getting people behind you, not by huddling together in a righteous and self-congratulatory embrace.” –Anthony Painter
Sociologists have demonstrated that all successful groups rely on “commitment mechanisms”. People must be committed to a cause. It has to become part of their identity. Religions have been extremely successful because they promise their committed believers paradise for compliance and hell for disobedience. The rich have been extremely successful because they deliver wealth and power to those committed to their cause, and poverty and mediocrity for everyone else.
A loose alliance of groups with no agreed stance, with no commitment, can never succeed. They will become bored, restless and drift off.
The protest groups of the world must unite under a single banner. Shouldn’t that banner be Meritocracy? Because of the elite’s brainwashing, you may remain unconvinced by Meritocracy, but ask yourself this – do you want the elite to stay in power, or do you wish to be rid of them? Meritocracy is the only system the world has never tried – precisely because it is supremely rational and dialectical, a smart solution for smart people. Isn’t it time to create the Smart Society of freedom, choice, and reason: the Society of the Enlightened?
******
People are either serious about changing the world, or they’re not. If they are then they must bring about the end of the reign of the super rich and privileged, of monarchs and nobles, of popes and priests, imams and rabbis, of bankers and their puppet politicians.
The Hour of Decision has come. Do you have the courage to change this world, or will you let the elite off the hook yet again?
100% inheritance tax destroys the dynastic elites. It forces the rich to start offloading their assets straight away and to spend big style, thus reinvigorating the global economy. Meritocracy destroys the networks of nepotism and cronyism that turn our world into two tiers, with the 1% on top and the 99% as their abject slaves.
It’s time for a New World.

1789 – the French Revolution

2017 – the GLOBAL REVOLUTION??? THE NEW WORLD ORDER!

The Armageddon Conspiracy.
The Armageddon Conspiracy = the Illuminati’s 21st century coded Arthurian novel
The Armageddon Conspiracy = the Plot to Kill God
Who is “God”? He is Jehovah, Christ, Allah. But he is NOT God (Abraxas). He’s the Devil. Humanity cannot live until the Devil dies.
Saint-Just, the great French Revolutionary and Illuminatus, demanded the death of the tyrant king Louis XVI. Even more so, the tyrant “God” must perish.
No matter how the Abrahamic God cloaks himself, whether in the coat of Judaism, Christianity or Islam, he remains an eternal criminal against which the whole of humanity must take up arms. The Abrahamic God is crime itself. How did he sign his Covenant with Abraham? – by ordering Abraham to murder his own son to show how good a slave he was. Only slaves could ever kneel to this diabolical “God”.
“God” cannot reign innocently, and plainly never has. “God” is a usurper of the Rights of Man. He seeks to strip the human race of its rights and impose his hatred of freedom on us all. He is the quintessential enemy of human freedom and Reason itself. One need only look at the slaves who worship him to see how he degrades, imprisons and makes idiots of the human race.
The Abrahamic God is the essence of evil and the greatest enemy humanity will ever face. There can be no pardon for this monster. This Torture God must reign or die.
Will you join the plot to kill the apex predator that preys on humanity?
Don’t worship God. BECOME GOD! When everyone is part of a Society of the Divine, a Community of Gods, there will be no more human slaves on their knees to an invisible Sky God who exercises his power not through being real but through being imagined to be real. When it comes to religion, perception IS reality.
Do you believe in the Illuminati? We don’t. We ARE the Illuminati.
We are the Lizard Kings.
We are the Mathematikoi.
We are the Coming Race.
We are the HyperHumans.
For the infantile conspiracy theorists, “Illuminati” stands for whoever they don’t like. Are the Illuminati Zionists, Jesuits, Communists, Socialists, Freemasons, Knights Templar, Liberals, Knights Hospitaller, pan-dimensional, shape-shifting, alien lizards, Wall Street bankers, the CEOs who run the corporatocracy, the Washington D. C. WASPs who facilitate the corporatocracy, the super rich who lobby and pay for their own agenda to be foisted on the people, the dynastic families of power and privilege who ensure that their rule stretches down the generations (the Old World Order)?
It’s self-evident who the enemies of the people are: the cabal visibly running the world. There’s nothing hidden or secret about them. They’re right in front of our faces. They are those who run global capitalism, free-market capitalism, consumerism, “freedumb and dumbocracy”, bread and circuses, media propaganda, the security services, those who uphold dynastic property rights, inheritance, privilege, cronyism, nepotism, those who uphold hereditary monarchy, those who support ancient, decrepit, evil religions, those who support greed and selfishness in the name of “liberty”, those who support psychopathy and the relentless manipulation and exploitation of the masses in order to siphon more and more power, wealth and resources into the hands of fewer and fewer people.
These people have nothing to do with the Illuminati. They are the OPPOSITE of the Illuminati. They are the 1% of psychopathic humans who feed on the rest. They are the vampire humans, the insatiable hawks who love nothing more than to feast on doves. Just as turkeys are fattened for Christmas, so are the doves fattened (made morbidly obese) so that the Elite never have to worry about these lumbering, slow-minded morons and slaves.
Get Real. Get Active. Get Going.
Isn’t it time to become ILLUMINATED?!
******
The Movement Rebooted.
The Illuminati are portrayed by conspiracy theorists and Christian and Muslim Fundamentalists as the puppetmasters of the world. The world’s real puppetmasters are self-evident: they are the 80 individuals who own more wealth than half the world’s population. The 80 are the Archons of free-market capitalism, and are propped up by the vast capitalist infrastructure that exists solely to serve their private, selfish interests. They are mired in privilege, cronyism and nepotism. The governments and nation states of the world are fully in their service and never under any circumstances do they take any action against them.
This is the most unequal period in human history. By next year, 1% of the world’s population will own more wealth than the other 99%. Winnie Byanyima, executive director of Oxfam International, asked, “Do we really want to live in a world where the 1% own more than the rest of us combined? The scale of global inequality is quite simply staggering and despite the issues shooting up the global agenda, the gap between the richest and the rest is widening fast.”
The wealth of the richest 80 doubled in cash terms between 2009 and 2014. Increasingly, wealth is inherited and used to finance lobbyists who are paid to further their wealthy clients’ own interests, and not those of the people … of private wealth, not the Commonwealth. All elected politicians are puppets of the Old World Order of dynastic wealth and power.
The true Bible of the Power Elite is Ayn Rand’s toxic Atlas Shrugged, her sickenening hymn to selfishness. Nearly all conspiracy theorists are fanatical Randroids, and they are absolutely right that we are their Nemesis. Our mission is to bring to a permanent end the anti-democratic and anti-meritocratic rule of the privileged, dynastic elites that run the world and create a false consciousness in the sheeple that blindly support them.
Conspiracy theories are used by the Elite to promote the agenda of unrestrained free-market capitalist globalism. Conspiracy theories are all about calling into question the inherent legitimacy of governments and nation states, so that they can be replaced by capitalist markets, wholly controlled by the rich Elite … by the 80.
The 80 are unelected and unaccountable to the people, and that’s exactly what Elitism – supported by legions of right-wing anarcho-capitalist libertarians and anti-Jacobin conspiracy theorists – is all about. The right wingers of the world are all about promoting private interest over the public interest, self-service over public service, selfishness over altruism, irrationalism over Reason, greed over need, narcissism over respect for others. Right wingers are on the psychopathic spectrum. They invariably love themselves and rail against anyone or any group that seeks to stand up to them and stop the hawk predators from feeding on the innocent, harmless doves.
Capitalist Globalism – making the whole world dance to the Old World Order’s economic rule in perpetuity – is the supreme expression of imperialism. Capitalist Globalism is the One World Government that the rich Elite are implementing to ensure that they rule every corner of the globe.
The biggest “nation” of all … the One World system of Global Capitalism, which rules everything … is the ultimate gangster, and all the rest of us are the prostitutes, begging for money from the Elite while they fuck us up the ass.
Just as Judaism, Christianity and Islam have always been terrorist religions – terrorising people with the threat of the wrath of “God” and eternal pain and suffering in hell – so free-market capitalism has never been anything other than gangsterism, where those with capital point a gun at the head of those without. It’s time to stop being the slaves of the Elite. It’s time for the people to rule.
The End of Privilege, the End of Nepotism, the End of Cronyism, the End of Dynastic Wealth and Power.
Inheritance is the precise mechanism by which the dead tyrannically rule over the living. When you’re dead, you’re dead. Your wealth does not live on to be inherited by nepotistic scroungers who did nothing to earn it. Inheritance is welfare for rich folk, and no decent person would ever accept it. Inheritance is how the rich control the poor and keep them in their “place”. It’s how the dead rule from beyond the grave. The dead have no legal rights and no stake in the world of the living. Post mortem transfers of wealth, power and influence must be made illegal via Pro Life legislation, i.e. legislation designed to ensure that corpses cannot dictate the future of the human race via selectively handing on decisive financial advantage to the chosen few (the “Chosen People”).
The mission of the rich elites is to set up their families to rule over the rest of us in perpetuity. They call for zero percent inheritance tax, and inheritance is of course the means by which they transmit overwhelming advantage across the generations, how they rig the system, and how they establish the all-powerful cartel from which all the rest of us are excluded if we are fools and cowards enough to go along with it. What is the antidote to dynastic rule, and what is it that the rich elites hate and fear more than anything else? … it’s one hundred percent inheritance tax. Anyone who opposes this tax – the tax that ensures that no dynasty can rule the world via inherited wealth (parasitical wealth, unearned by the deadbeats and dead heads who pathetically grab it because they are incapable of standing on their own two feet and earning their own money by their own sweat and effort) – opposes human progress and freedom. Anyone who resists total inheritance tax supports anti-meritocracy and the dynastic rule of rich elites. We note that all the cretinous conspiracy theorists rage against inheritance tax, and call it “communism” – exactly as required by their rich puppetmasters. Here’s the simple truth of the world:
1) Thesis: Free-market Capitalism … unequal opportunities and unequal outcomes.
2) Antithesis: Communism … equal opportunities and equal outcomes.
3) Synthesis: Meritocracy … equal opportunities and unequal outcomes.
Meritocracy is about the smartest, most talented people … from any background, no matter how humble or disadvantaged … getting to the top so that the rest of us can benefit from their expertise, intelligence and merit. It’s not a question of a rising tide of money raising all boats, but of a rising tide of intelligence and talent.
The proper function of the State is to optimise itself through optimising each and every one of its citizens. It has to maximise the potential of everyone, from any background. The optimal State is the one governed by its smartest and most meritorious citizens – Plato’s Philosopher Kings, who are not allowed to accumulate any private wealth and must be devoted entirely to the public good, the opposite of today’s rulers of the world.
Every person must be allowed to go as far as their talents take them, and that means they must not be up against a rigged system of privilege, cronyism and nepotism, designed to favour the children of the Elite and to obstruct the progress of everyone else.
Free-market capitalism exists to free the capitalists and enslave everyone else. Aren’t you sick of being a slave? Then do something about it. Get off your fucking ass.
No Taxation Without Representation.
The American rebels against British imperial tyranny rightly demanded representation in Parliament. Nowadays, you routinely find American “patriots” demanding the end of government, and its replacement by the market. So, here’s a question for all the “patriots” … given that the markets are run by and for global banks, global corporations, and the global super rich, in what way are the markets accountable to the people? Can we vote the “market” or its controllers out of office? Can we fire any of the big market makers and players? Are we represented on the boards of any of the big market makers and players? Do the ordinary people have any say at all over the market? And, if they don’t, isn’t that tyranny? The market is tyranny without a face, or the face of the rich carefully hidden behind a faceless abstraction so that we can’t see the tyrant stamping on our face.
The Divine Conspiracy.
What is the Armageddon Conspiracy? It’s the Plot to Kill “God” … the Abrahamic Torture God, the Abrahamic Terrorist God … The Devil God who orders fathers to murder their own children as a test of slavish, blind obedience.

Conclusion:
The world is in thrall to the past. The shadow of primitive, superstitious, uneducated desert tribesmen continues to be cast over the world. Billions continue to subscribe to bizarre, irrational and even evil belief systems. Their deranged ideas and attitudes infect every world institution and prevent the world from moving forward. Perhaps only 20% of the human race is enlightened, while the vast majority remain ignorant, almost militantly so. It’s as if they don’t want to move into the future.
The Illuminati is a dialectical society, seeking to achieve humanity’s omega point – union with the divine order. Only through our enlightened, rational manifesto can that dream be brought into being. The old gods must perish so that new gods may live. Those new gods will be human beings. Don’t you want to become God? Then learn from the past, and correct the errors that have held back humanity. It’s time to revalue all values. It’s time to be free. It’s time to achieve apotheosis.
It’s time for the Illuminati.

Freedumb, Dumbocracy, Moronarchy, Idiocracy and Free-Racket CRAPITALISM:
That’s the world we’re living in. Isn’t it time to change the script?
Our world is controlled by a group called the “Ownership Class”, or the “Old World Order” – a group of ultra-wealthy individuals and dynastic families of privilege that have always ruled over us, often claiming to reign by “divine right”.
In the UK, the head of state is an unelected, unaccountable Queen who refers to the British people as her “subjects” and as “commoners”, who are expected to withdraw from her presence by walking backwards (because it would be insulting for them to dare to turn their back on their sovereign). Why would any rational person subscribe to this perpetual humiliation? – yet tens of millions of Britons swear their allegiance to this abominable Queen. She has “ladies in waiting” who are like slaves, waiting to do her bidding at any time. When the Australian prime minister refused to curtsey to the Queen, it made headline news in Britain and Australia. When a politician dared to gently touch the Queen’s back to steer her in the right direction, it caused outrage in the British media. There’s an elaborate protocol for how to conduct yourself in the “royal presence”. A team of advisers and courtiers spell out the etiquette.
The 400 richest Americans have the same wealth as the poorest 150 million Americans. If that statistic doesn’t shock you to the core, you must be one of the 400. The key to understanding our world lies in grasping how 400 individuals, and people like the English Queen, can utterly dominate vast populations that could destroy them in an instant if they so chose. If we lived in the jungle as brute animals, it’s inconceivable that the 400 wouldn’t be attacked and killed by much stronger individuals. So there is something about human “civilisation” that leads to the astoundingly unnatural situation where 150 million people allow their lives to be destroyed in order that 400 people should live amongst them as monarchs who command all they survey.
“Civilisation” turns out to be a tool to create a pyramidal society where a small, elite class rule over various other layers, with a huge underclass at the bottom, propping up everyone else. The members of the underclass should, logically, attack the elite, but they never do. Why not? – because they buy into the religious and legal prohibitions instilled in them by the elite. They end up fighting amongst themselves and killing each other.
The 400 richest Americans rely on laws (designed by and for the rich and powerful), religious prohibitions (selected by the rich and powerful), round-the-clock propaganda (they own the media), and, as their last resort, they have their paid enforcers (mercenaries) – the police and the army – to uphold their will through violence. With these measures, the 400 make themselves impregnable, inviolable… invincible. The message the 400 communicate to the 150 million is that it is right, moral, just, rational, legitimate, and, ultimately, the will of God, that they should rule over the 150 million and that the 150 million should make no attempt to overthrow them even though if the 150 million want any chance in life, the first thing they should do is get rid of the 400.
The 400 are masters of psychology. Above all, they are experts in the doctrine of “divide and rule”. They set the 150 million against themselves. Consider the phenomenon of gangs. Members of rival gangs are continually shooting each other and fighting over who controls the streets of the grim ghettos they live in. The 400 are delighted when the gang members kill each other. What they worry about is all the gangs realising who the real enemy is – THEM. Imagine all of the gangs coming together to form a Super Gang and, rather than killing each other, attacking rich folk in gated communities. That’s the 400’s worst nightmare. But of course the gangs are too dumb to follow any rational course of action. Who made them dumb? – the 400, naturally.
The 400 and their ilk have created an atomised society of self-interested, selfish individuals all ruthlessly and savagely competing with each other according to the mechanistic rules of “game theory”. There is no group solidarity. The only common purpose of the 150 million is to screw over everyone else and secure an advantage for themselves. But they do so only amongst their own kind. None of them ever gaze upwards towards the controllers of the game and think,
“Hey, why don’t I screw THEM over?” They don’t think like that because the 400 have created such a power differential between themselves and everyone else that they seem to belong to another world – of gods. They are untouchable. The 150 million fight amongst themselves like rats in a sack, and none of them ever stops to think – “Why are we doing this to each other? Who made us like this? Isn’t there a better way?” You need to be smart to have such thoughts, so the elite have designed and promoted a dumbed-down, lowest common denominator culture where everyone is plunging to the bottom rather than rising to the top. How low can you go? – to the uttermost depths of cretinism, vulgarity, tastelessness, crassness, cheapness, and worthlessness. Just turn on your TV and flick through the channels. It’s like watching the denizens of Dante’s nine circles of hell, except, bizarrely, the damned can’t get enough of it. They’re glued to their LCD TVs. What they do is make life hell for those who aspire to higher things. The one thing Dante never considered is that hell would be a place that the overwhelming majority LOVE. American Idol and X-Factor – these are programmes created by the elite to provide “bread and circuses” to the masses, and how the masses flock to the Colosseum. What they haven’t realised – because they’re too stupid – is that they’re the “Christians” being fed to the lions. They’re watching the annihilation of their hopes of a good life, and yet they’re laughing and cheering! That demonstrates the extent of the elite’s mind control over them. Every second you spend watching junk TV is a wasted second, and if you watch a huge amount of shit, you’ve wasted your life.

Capital:
It’s not enough for the elite 1% to be masters of economic capital (cash and financial assets) alone, and in fact there are three other types of capital which are equally significant: social, cultural and symbolic capital. It was French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu who introduced this extended definition of capital. He said of capital that it applied “to all the goods material and symbolic, without distinction, that present themselves as rare and worthy of being sought after in a particular social formation”.
1) Social capital. Think of this as the groups and networks to which you belong, and the quality of the relationships you enjoy. Do you belong to the elite Harvard circle? Or the Bullingdon Club, or Bohemian Grove? Do you mix with millionaires, with politicians and celebrities? Who will help you when the chips are down? Who will support you? Do you think the people born into privilege ever have “hard times”? Bourdieu described social capital as “the aggregate of the actual or potential resources which are linked to possession of a durable network of more or less institutionalized relationships of mutual acquaintance and recognition.” Most of us have low social capital. We don’t know anyone significant or with any meaningful resources. Our networks are transient, low-level and can’t help us to set up a business or make any real difference in our lives. It’s the elite who define all important forms of social capital, and they establish exclusive groups for the rich in order to perpetuate their elite status. Everyone wants to join their groups; they have no interest in joining yours.
2) Cultural capital. Think of this as the extent to which you share the cultural values of the elite (they are the ones who shape the cultural values). Do you like what they like? Do you like opera, ballet, classical music, modern art, fine wine, high cuisine, literary fiction, exclusive holidays in luxury resorts where hoi polloi never go? If you want to have a higher status in society, you have to be knowledgeable about the cultural values of the top 1%. If you share their values, they might invite you into their charmed circle. If all you can talk about is “working class” culture, they will regard you as a barbarian and you will never get any invites. “Social climbing” is about adopting the necessary values to allow you to mix easily with the ruling elite. If you have low economic capital but high cultural capital, you might be able to ascend the social ladder to some extent. If you have low cultural capital but high economic capital, you will always be regarded as “vulgar”, as “new money”.
So, cultural capital is about “table manners”, the extent to which you can exhibit refined taste (such taste being dictated by the value system of the elite, which is designed to exclude 99% of the people). Bourdieu refers to cultural capital most especially in relation to education (the elite are those who set the educational agenda and dictate what gets taught and how it’s taught). That’s the primary arena where you can adopt the values of the elite and gain a higher status for yourself. If you reject education, you are unlikely to acquire any cultural capital. You will be more like Tony Montana in Scarface – an uncouth, violent thug with no class. Most parents are clueless about how to acquire cultural capital, and so their children are equally ignorant. You don’t get it by eating junk food, watching TV and playing video games.
Cultural capital – non-financial social nous; knowing what the elite like – can help you with your networking (social capital) and then lead to the acquisition of greater economic capital because you will get a better job than those lacking cultural capital. Understanding cultural capital is the best route to social mobility for anyone outside the privileged elite. Cultural capital opens the doors that would otherwise be locked. But, crucially, it’s all about embracing the values of a profoundly elitist and snobbish group who despise ordinary people. Why should you have to play that game in order to get on in the world? And what would it say about you if you did play along?
3) Symbolic capital. This is perhaps most important of all because it targets the imagination. Consider the “Royal Wedding” in the UK. Think of all the pomp, splendour and grandeur put on show, the projection of the power and glory of the British Establishment. All of this is designed to emphasize the legitimacy of the regime and to show any republicans that when they denounce the Queen, they stand opposed to the whole British nation.
Think of the importance of the American flag and the Star Spangled Banner anthem to ordinary Americans. Think of the power of the Koran over the collective Muslim mind. Think of Ferrari cars, Rolex watches, designer labels and so on. People crave certain consumer goods not because they have great intrinsic value but because they are priceless in terms of symbolic value. Everyone wants the symbols that impress others. People are obsessed with signs and symbols. We are all judging each other according to the signs and symbols we have on show. These are the basis of STATUS, and underpin the perpetual status war in which we are all engaged. Everyone wants to have the signs and symbols associated with the highest status, so the rich are always the winners in the status war.
Symbolic capital is about prestige, honour, recognition, glory, status, your place in the pecking order.
******
In summary, we can think of economic capital as “what you own” (personal wealth), social capital as “who you know” (nepotism, cronyism and privilege), cultural capital as “what you know about the values and tastes of the ruling elite, and how well you are in accord with those values and tastes” and symbolic capital as “the signs and symbols that indicate your status, with the highest and most desirable signs and symbols being those linked to the rich elite.”
Capital in its four forms is the key to our world – and it’s entirely defined and shaped by the elite. They control not only your financial circumstances, but also how you think, what you think, and to what you aspire. They dictate what you believe in, but they allow you to think you chose those beliefs for yourself. They dictate how you vote – you always vote for them or their puppets. They construct your identity. They even construct the stuff of which you dream. They are the true controllers of the Matrix. You are the batteries for the capitalist machine. You power it, and every time you make a purchase you make the rich richer. You are the perfect drones and droids, and all the while you delude yourselves that you are free and have meaningful choices. You don’t.
What you dream of most of all is being one of the rich elite. Ergo they are the last people in the world you would attack because they are what you aspire to be. And that’s why 400 people can dominate 150,000,000 with almost no effort. They don’t have to spy on you and check up on you. You automatically do everything required of you because that’s how they’ve programmed you.
Isn’t it time to wake up? Stop swallowing the elite’s propaganda. These people are scum and it’s time they were swept away by the people’s righteous anger, just as they were in the French and Russian Revolutions.

The Democratic Illusion:
“You understand that in this election, the greatest risk we can take is to try the same old politics with the same old players and expect a different result.” –Barack Obama
What did Obama do when he got into power? He appointed the same old players, tried the same old politics, and got the same old results! That’s democracy for you. Only a madman would keep trying the same old failed formula. Democracy is no longer tenable. It’s time for meritocracy.
The top 3 million Americans (1%) own 33% of the nation’s wealth – 32 times more than their fair share. (Some estimates put it as high as 42%, and growing.)
The bottom 150 million Americans (50%) own 3% of the country’s wealth – 16 times less than their fair share.
The next 149 million Americans (49%) own 64% of the country’s wealth – 0.3 times more than their fair share.
In other words, 1% are having a ball, 49% are doing slightly better than OK, and 50% are in hell. Where’s the Revolution? How can you treat half of your population like shit in order to allow 1% to live like kings? Why do the 50% tolerate it? It’s the 49% who are the accomplices of the elite 1%.
Imagine life as a 100 metres race. 49% of the people are more less at the starting line, but 1% are 32 metres up the track. Their 100 metres race is only 68 metres long! As for 50%, they are 16 metres behind the starting line. They have to run 16 metres before they even join the race. (Many don’t get that far: they never start.) Ask yourself a very simple question – who will win this race and who will lose? Is there any doubt? The race is rigged from the beginning.1% are sure to win and 50% are sure to lose. As for the 49%, they need to break every world record imaginable to beat the 1%. they have to be one in a million! Do you fancy those odds? So why are you taking part in this race? Isn’t it time for a new race where everyone lines up at the same starting line?
Meritocracy is based on the absolute destruction of the rigged race of life via the introduction of 100% inheritance tax i.e. an overwhelming advantage can no longer be passed on by rich parents to their children. All children, no matter the wealth of their parents, must begin at the same starting line as everyone else. No parents can rig the race. The 1% can no longer dictate the outcome of the race.
Many people claim to be meritocrats but when you mention 100% inheritance tax to them, all of the blood drains from their faces. You know what that means? – THEY’RE NOT MERITOCRATS!
“Democracy” literally means “people power” (demos – people; kratos = power). It was designed to stop rule by the rich elite. Look at “democratic” America. Who runs it? The rich elite – the top 1%!!! Why haven’t the dumb “democrats” worked out that the elite have conned them yet again!

Between 2002 and 2007, two-thirds of American gains in wealth flowed to the top 1% of households, and that top 1% held a larger share of income than at any time since 1928, just prior to the Great Crash. In other words, extreme wealth always presages a crash, and the reason is simple – the extreme wealth came about by excessive greed on the part of the top 1%, leading to an unsustainable boom that automatically gives birth to a disastrous bust.
50 million Americans have no healthcare. More than 45 million Americans are on food stamps. More than 24 million can’t find a full-time job. 14 million are unemployed.
The degree of inequality in America is on a par with Rwanda – yet America is supposed to be the richest and most powerful country on earth. America has failed, democracy has failed and capitalism has failed.
It’s time for a change – and that means an entirely new political vision. MERITOCRACY. Only the irrational would persevere with an utterly failed and discredited political, economic and social system.

A person posted a message on the Path of Illumination Facebook page, saying that the “New World Order” would never happen. The person had plainly never read this site and had no idea what the “New World Order” is. Such a person believes that he can personally stop the NWO happening. But if he can stop the NWO, why didn’t he stop the OWO – the Old World Order? If he says that he will fight to stop a New World Order then the fact that he’s not currently fighting must mean that he’s a supporter of the Old World Order – of the elite 1% who have ruined our world. Everyone who supports the prevailing regime of rule by the 1% is indeed an enemy of the Illuminati. They are the friends of Wall Street, Zionism and the rich elite. The person who posted his message opposing the New World Order is exactly the sort of deluded, irrational sad sack who stands in the way of progress.

The Meritocracy Cure:
Meritocracy attacks all aspects of capital. By the tool of 100% inheritance tax, it brings dynastic family wealth and privilege to a permanent end; by promoting “what you know” (merit) over “who you know” (privilege), it destroys social capital; by redefining culture and aligning it with merit rather than privilege, it destroys the prevailing cultural capital, and it thereby redefines the signs and symbols associated with symbolic capital.
The new meritocratic system of capitalism (embracing all four forms of capital) is called social or public capitalism in which there is no longer any privileged elite pulling the strings. The capitalist pyramid is toppled and replaced by a meritocratic round table where anyone sitting at the table has the same opportunities as everyone else.

The 99% Movement and Occupy Wall Street:
“The second we start making demands, we start splintering and we are no longer the 99 per cent.” –New York protester
What is the point of the “99% Movement” and “Occupy Wall Street”? They have no demands to put forward, no platform to advocate. They are defined by what they are opposed to, but they themselves stand for nothing concrete. This is nihilism. How can you change the system if you don’t know what you want to change it to?
Why should the elite be worried by a philosophically and politically mute movement with nothing positive to articulate? All this movement does is present a list of grievances without saying what has to be done to remedy them. The global protest movement is afraid to stand behind any position because they know their unity will instantly disintegrate.
The global protest movement is overly broad and underly deep. It’s a superficial expression of discontent. Look at what happened in Egypt in similar circumstances. The Egyptian protesters knew exactly what they were against but they had no agreed stance. So, the military filled the vacuum and imposed its will. Are the Egyptians better off today? Many of them are as angry as they were before. What has changed?
The global protesters are terrified of having leaders. Look at the “Anonymous” hacking group. They actually see it as a virtue to have no leaders. Guess who’s laughing at this lack of leadership? – the elite. The elite know that if the opposition has no leaders then it poses no threat. All the opposition will ever do is perform stunts: street theatre with performers in assorted masks. It’s all part of the Society of the Spectacle created by guess who? – yup, the elite again. Protestors spend more time filming themselves, tweeting, facebooking and posting pictures than they do debating politics and policy. They spend their time thinking up witty remarks to put on placards and no time at all reading Plato, Rousseau, Nietzsche and Hegel. They are PERFECT PROTESTERS – from the point of view of the elite! They are really engaged in a kind of entertainment rather than a serious attempt to change anything. Compare the Occupy Wall Street gang with the sans-culottes of the French Revolution, the radical militants of the lower orders wearing their red Phrygian caps. Which group frightens the life out of the elite? But the elite have so sanitised the world, made it so “postmodern”, that protesters never contemplate anything truly radical. They occupy an agreed corner of Wall Street – they don’t burn it down. They don’t smash any windows. They don’t hurl abuse at the bankers and traders. They have pizzas delivered to them. What’s the point? What’s the objective? What’s the end game? Does anyone actually care? Or is protesting an end in itself? “I protest therefore I am.”
Shouldn’t a protest have specific objectives? Shouldn’t there be a list of demands? Shouldn’t there be a political stance? Shouldn’t there be leaders? But the elite have controlled “capital” so brilliantly that they have rendered protest a joke, a non-threat. People buy “Anonymous” masks and some fat cat capitalist who owns the image rights gets even fatter – he hopes that the protests go on forever! He will become the fattest cat in history.
The protesters MUST become political. Fuck this ludicrous attempt to maintain innocuous consensus. Obama spends all of his time calling for bipartisan action and consensus – and his ratings keep slipping lower and lower and he looks more and more ineffectual. He stands for nothing. He has no beliefs, no causes to fight for i.e. he’s the perfect puppet politician who will never pose a threat to anyone. That’s why he’s in the White House. No LEADER ever gets elected in a democracy because a leader actually wants to change things, and that’s something the privileged elite won’t permit.
In the UK, Prime Minister David Cameron and his glamorous wife Samantha (daughter of a baronet and stepdaughter of a Viscount) are said to be worth £30 million. Cameron (Eton College, Oxford University, Bullingdon Club, son of an extremely well-connected, rich stockbroker) and his posh, aristocratic wife are the quintessence of extreme privilege. In what way would this silver-spoon couple know anything of the plight of ordinary men and women? They know ZERO about real life. They have spent their entire lives in the synthetic bubble of privilege. They have never had to worry about money or getting a job. Everything is handed to them on a plate. They can set their sights as high as possible because they have none of the worries of normal people.

“Much of the Occupy movement’s rank-and-file understandably wish to bypass a political process that seems either irrelevant or part of the problem. But the stakes are far higher than they were during the heyday of the anti-globalisation movement. Capitalism is in a crisis without apparent end; Western governments are manically hacking chunks off the welfare state; and millions are being stripped of secure futures. In these circumstances, anger will inevitably grow; but unless it is given a political focus, it is set to erupt in ugly, directionless ways. We could be staring at a future of desperate youths rampaging through city centres; and masked riot police officers charging at crowds. But those with economic and political power would remain safely in place, possibly helped by an even greater backlash at rising disorder than that witnessed after the August riots. Those swelling the ranks of dissent have to choose: are we making a point about the 1 per cent, or are we trying to dislodge them from power? We’ve certainly achieved the former.
But – unless we develop a coherent alternative that resonates with the millions being made to pay for the banks’ crisis – the people at the top aren’t going anywhere.” –Owen Jones, The Independent
There are far too many doped-out hippies in the ranks of the protesters with all their “love is light” (does that mean there’s no love at night unless the lights are kept on?!) and “love your neighbour” crap (do the rich elite love YOU? – you must be joking). It’s time for the radicals and the revolutionaries, not the “professional” malcontents who destroy activism with their weed.
Marxism called itself a “spectre” haunting capitalism? Where is today’s spectre? More like trick or treat.
__________
Manifesto of the Communist Party:
“A spectre is haunting Europe — the spectre of communism. All the powers of old Europe have entered into a holy alliance to exorcise this spectre: Pope and Tsar, Metternich and Guizot, French Radicals and German police-spies.
Where is the party in opposition that has not been decried as communistic by its opponents in power? Where is the opposition that has not hurled back the branding reproach of communism, against the more advanced opposition parties, as well as against its reactionary adversaries?
Two things result from this fact:
I. Communism is already acknowledged by all European powers to be itself a power.
II. It is high time that Communists should openly, in the face of the whole world, publish their views, their aims, their tendencies, and meet this nursery tale of the Spectre of Communism with a manifesto of the party itself.
To this end, Communists of various nationalities have assembled in London and sketched the following manifesto, to be published in the English, French, German, Italian, Flemish and Danish languages.”

“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles. Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guild-master and journeyman, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary reconstitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes.” –Marx and Engels

Communism failed in 1989 and capitalist democrats then proclaimed that there was no alternative to their system. They pronounced the “End of History” i.e. there would be no more great conflicts: all nations would adopt capitalist democracy and that would be it until Doomsday. But there IS an alternative – the dialectical political system of MERITOCRACY.
It’s time to get real. It’s time to get serious. Fuck DEMOCRACY! Obama was democracy’s last hope and he has failed dismally. He was an outsider who behaved exactly like an insider. Thus it always is. If you want a new society you have to understand something extremely simple – the prevailing ideology, the current “system”, has to be smashed to smithereens. It’s time for a new, dialectical system of continuous improvement – Meritocracy – that models itself on the most successful instrument ever devised by humanity: the scientific method.
Meritocracy is about applying expertise, method and evidence to politics. It’s about jettisoning ideology and rhetoric and dealing instead with hypotheses, experiments, data collection and evidence. Every aspect of society can be brought to perfection through repeated iterations of the dialectical method of thesis, antithesis and synthesis. There’s no further need for hot air speeches and moralising by politicians. Now we will have theories put forward by experts in their fields, and these theories will be relentlessly tested and perfected – exactly as in science, humanity’s jewel.
The quickest way to get people up to speed with meritocracy is to invoke the example of Star Trek. This is a futuristic vision based on a technocratic meritocracy. There’s no rich elite in Star Trek. In fact there’s no money. There’s no celebrity culture and no fanatical master-slave religious beliefs. No one is on their knees in terror of their God (any God who inspires terror is not God!). Anyone who likes Star Trek ought to be a meritocrat (and it says a great deal about you if you don’t like Star Trek).
Can anyone seriously believe that five hundred years from now, humanity will still be operating under capitalist democracy with the top 1% controlling almost half of the wealth of the world? Capitalist democracy WILL be replaced. The only question is what will replace it. The solution does not lie in democracy. Democracy has failed decisively and irrevocably. Free market capitalism has failed decisively and irrevocably.
Capitalist democracy certainly won’t take us to the future. It has delivered the 99% versus 1% catastrophe we have now. Communism won’t help us. Islam won’t help us. Anarchy won’t help us. What’s left? There’s only one viable alternative – Meritocracy, the political system of advanced, rational humanity, of Enlightenment, of the future.
If capitalism and democracy have failed – as they evidently have – it stands to reason that they must be replaced. Anyone who doesn’t understand failure will keep repeating failure. There’s no point in calling for worthless reforms of the existing failed system. The system itself has proved rotten to the core. The system must be wholly changed. There can be no half measures.
Meritocracy is the answer. Meritocracy is about taking all logical, rational, enlightened steps necessary to end privilege and create equal opportunities for everyone. Meritocracy is not however an ideology of equality. Meritocracy says that everyone should line up at the same starting line and be given an equal opportunity to win, but then the race will be run and some – the most talented – will prove victorious. They will be the people who govern the world, but they will govern it in the interests of everyone, not in their own interests. They will be all about public service and nothing to do with self-service (unlike the current capitalist leaders of the world whose primary objective is to line their own pockets).
100% inheritance tax will ensure that the leaders of society cannot establish family dynasties or create systems of privilege for themselves and their relatives and cronies. There will never again be a super rich elite class. That will be enshrined in law and enacted via 100% taxation on all private estates: all assets at death are thereby inherited by the Commonwealth – the “Bank of the People” – and redistributed amongst the people (the money will mostly be invested in education.) Since there’s no point in hoarding wealth, the richest members of society will no doubt spend their wealth i.e. it will be continually recirculating in the economy. The money will therefore always be available to the people and the economy rather than being removed from circulation and used to create vast, permanent assets for the elite.
100% inheritance tax is the measure most feared by the elite. Oddly, it is also feared by ordinary people even though most have few assets to pass on anyway. Why do people with no assets fear inheritance tax? – because the elite have brainwashed them to fear it! It’s labelled as a communist policy; as the “evil” State interfering in people’s lives. Who says so? – the elite do. Why? Because 100% inheritance tax destroys them once and for all. It brings to an end the age of the Old World Order of elite dynastic families. It brings to an end the super rich class. It brings to an end the two-tier Society of Privilege.
Inheritance tax isn’t even something that the living experience – because you have to be dead before it applies. What decent, moral person would object to having their excess wealth at death surrendered to the Commonwealth for the education and good of the people? Only sick and selfish people would oppose 100% inheritance tax. This tax is the one that will define the New Society. At one stroke, it changes EVERYTHING.
Isn’t it time to put your weight behind a brand new political vision – Meritocracy. Of course, it isn’t actually new at all. It’s just a modern update of Plato’s Republic, Plato’s Laws and Rousseau’s Social Contract.
It’s amazing how many people still think the current system can be salvaged. It can’t. It’s over. Anyone who wants a new society must turn to a new system – Meritocracy and social capitalism, specifically designed to curb excessive wealth and the power of dynastic families. What’s not to like?
Yet history demonstrates that, initially, the masses will despise meritocracy. Of course, democracy was not universally admired when it first appeared on the scene in ancient Athens, and it vanished for millennia. Britain claims to have been responsible for restoring democracy to the world, but that’s rather difficult to sustain given that Britain, to this day, is a monarchy with an unelected, unaccountable head of State and is one of the most socially divided, class-ridden, unequal societies on earth. Britain is a classic oligarchy. It’s ruled by an elite class, headed by a monarch. In fact, on close inspection, there aren’t any democracies in the world. They’re all actually plutocracies (rule of the people by the rich and for the rich). Switzerland is probably the closest to a proper democracy, and that’s not exactly at the forefront of world affairs, and its secretive, pro-elite banking system is exceptionally sinister and anti-democratic.
Democracy is, more or less, an illusion. It’s a tool used by the rich to convince the poor – the people – that they are really in charge. But if the people are in charge, how come all of the assets belong to the rich?

The Tipping Point:
Do you think your beliefs and convictions are unshakeable? Do you consider it impossible that you would ever abandon your most cherished beliefs? Here’s a thought experiment for you. Perhaps you’re a Christian. Imagine that a new religion came along and gained rapid popularity, so rapid that within a few years almost all Christians had decamped to it. So now rather than being one Christian amongst many other Christians and socially rewarded and admired for your beliefs, you are a regarded as a weirdo. People shun you and snigger at you. You lose friends, and you have no chance of progressing at work. Christianity becomes a huge burden for you, radically obstructing your opportunities and making life exceptionally difficult. Do you really think you will soldier on as a Christian or will you follow everyone else’s lead and change to the new religion?
You will no doubt lie to yourself that you will never change, but in practice you definitely will. People’s beliefs have got nothing to do with truth and conviction. People’s beliefs are social, political and economic constructs that change as soon as the social, political and economic conditions change. It’s easy to be a Christian if everyone else is a Christian. But when everyone else changes to some other religion then remaining a Christian is immensely problematic, and few have the strength to hold out.
Consider two examples from history. At the start of the sixteenth century, England was a devoutly Catholic country, had a Catholic monarch and was totally loyal to the Pope. By the end of the century, the monarch was Protestant, the Pope’s authority had been utterly rejected, the people were overwhelmingly Protestant, and anti-Catholicism was so rabid that Catholic priests were being burned at the stake. So much for the beliefs and convictions of the English. So much for the “sincerely, deeply held and unshakeable” Catholicism that all of the people professed at the start of the century. When new political circumstances arose following King Henry VIII’s desire for a divorce that the Pope refused to grant, the people quickly lined up behind the new political reality. You’re deluding yourself if you think you would behave any differently from the English. Your beliefs are provisional. Your beliefs will unquestionably change if circumstances change. That, in fact, is why change is possible at all. If people really had unshakeable beliefs then we would still believe in the gods of the Stone Age.
Religions are well aware of how vulnerable they are, which is why they are so insistent that they are the unerring, sacrosanct Word of God that can never be altered by time and circumstances. They threaten you with eternal hellfire if you abandon the “truth”. Islam actually promotes the death penalty for apostasy. Why? Because if people start leaving Islam and suffer no adverse consequences, what’s to stop everyone else doing the same?
Islam is itself a perfect example of how a new religion can destroy all other religions in its vicinity. Its prophet, Mohammed, was a deeply disturbed individual. He was a poor orphan looking for an identity and he found it by appealing to the ultimate father figure – Allah. Lacking a real father, he simply created a supernatural one. By the end of his life, he was the first ruler of all of Arabia, and all of his enemies had been despatched or converted. He himself was regarded by his followers as the perfect human being, the ideal, sacred pattern for all of humanity for all time. He is more or less what Christ is to Christians, though he’s not regarded as God (at least not quite).
Yet it’s a remarkable fact that for the first 13 years of Islam, Mohammed only had around 150 followers. Islam made almost no impression at all on the pre-existing pagan tribes of Mecca. It was only when Mohammed moved to Medina and involved himself first in politics and then war that Islam began to prosper i.e. it wasn’t for religious reasons that Islam succeeded. The vast majority of Mohammed’s efforts in Medina were devoted to the political and military success of Islam, and through those came its religious success, almost as an afterthought.
Politics and jihad are the real essence of Islam. Rather than Islam being compared and contrasted with Christianity, it should be seen as a rival model to National Socialism or capitalist democracy i.e. it’s a political, social and economic view of life. As a religion, Islam has almost nothing to offer. It has no complexity at all. It really amounts to nothing more than the assertion that there is only one God – Allah – and Mohammed is his prophet and you must do everything it says in the Koran if you want to go to paradise. Otherwise, you will go to hell. That’s it. There’s nothing else. There’s none of the incredible theological complexity of Christianity. Christians, in order to defend the concepts of the Holy Trinity and the Incarnation of God on earth (Jesus Christ) had to wrestle with mind-bogglingly difficult philosophical issues, all of which were absent from Islam: a simple religion for simple desert tribesmen. Islam was, and is, perfectly suited to people with no education, which is why Islam is a religion associated with almost no intellectual achievements. The only Muslims who ever contributed anything clever were those who studied pagan Greek philosophy!
The rise of Islam perfectly illustrates the phenomenon of the “tipping point”. It has been reported by scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in a paper called “Social consensus through the influence of committed minorities” that when just 10 percent of the population develop an unshakable belief, their belief will ALWAYS triumph and be adopted by the rest of society.
The question of how and when a minority belief becomes the majority opinion is crucial since this constitutes the dialectical dynamic that propels the world forward. Capitalist democracy can be overthrown like everything else. All that is required is for 10% percent of the population to acquire a zealous commitment to meritocracy. That’s the magic number – 10%.
The global protest movements, lacking an agreed agenda, can never succeed because they do not represent a commitment to anything in particular, hence cannot reach the requisite tipping point. The protesters are successful at articulating what they dislike, but hopeless at suggesting viable alternatives around which a tipping point can develop.
The tricky phase for any new movement is finding the ten percent of fully committed supporters. During that awkward time, there is little visible sign of progress and people can become discouraged – which is why they must be fanatics if they are to remain committed to a cause making no apparent headway.
Mohammed succeeded because his 150 followers stayed true to him even when it seemed his cause was hopeless. Had they doubted and abandoned him, Mohammed would have been no more than an obscure historical footnote in the story of Mecca.
Christianity, the most successful religion in history, also began with just a handful of adherents. The Christians were regularly persecuted, making their survival even more unlikely. In many ways, it was just one man – St Paul – who created Christianity. He was a tireless advocate of his religion and travelled far and wide to promote his message. Above all, he separated Christianity from Judaism and made Christianity acceptable to pagans by melding it with pagan Mithraism. This one man changed history. Can you?
Below the 10% tipping point, nothing much happens. Once the target is reached, the ideas spread like wildfire, like the viral successes we see on the internet. The latest sensation is Lana Del Ray. If you want the surest formula for success it’s a stunningly beautiful woman with a great voice, a great image and genuine talent singing a poignant song – a one in a million combination.
Success breeds success and failure breeds failure. The only “failures” who ever succeed are those who can cope with failure and persevere. If they have a powerful enough message and remain committed to it, they will eventually triumph, as Mohammed and his small band of followers demonstrated.
“Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better.” –Samuel Becket
Look at what has happened in the Arab nations. Dictators, supremely powerful for decades, were overthrown in weeks once the tipping point of protest was reached. In Syria, the repressive government has managed to contain the disorder and no tipping point has been achieved yet, but if the protestors stay true to their cause they will eventually succeed.
Reporting the details of the tipping point study, a journalist for Science Daily (July 26, 2011) said:
“To reach their conclusion, the scientists developed computer models of various types of social networks. One of the networks had each person connect to every other person in the network. The second model included certain individuals who were connected to a large number of people, making them opinion hubs or leaders. The final model gave every person in the model roughly the same number of connections. The initial state of each of the models was a sea of traditional-view holders. Each of these individuals held a view, but were also, importantly, open minded to other views.
“Once the networks were built, the scientists then ‘sprinkled’ in some true believers throughout each of the networks. These people were completely set in their views and unflappable in modifying those beliefs. As those true believers began to converse with those who held the traditional belief system, the tides gradually and then very abruptly began to shift.
“‘In general, people do not like to have an unpopular opinion and are always seeking to try locally to come to consensus. We set up this dynamic in each of our models,’ said SCNARC Research Associate and corresponding paper author Sameet Sreenivasan. To accomplish this, each of the individuals in the models ‘talked’ to each other about their opinion. If the listener held the same opinions as the speaker, it reinforced the listener’s belief. If the opinion was different, the listener considered it and moved on to talk to another person. If that person also held this new belief, the listener then adopted that belief. “‘As agents of change start to convince more and more people, the situation begins to change,’ Sreenivasan said. ‘People begin to question their own views at first and then completely adopt the new view to spread it even further. If the true believers just influenced their neighbors, that wouldn’t change anything within the larger system, as we saw with percentages less than 10.’”
There you have it. A few committed individuals with strong convictions can sway those with weaker beliefs, and take control. As soon as the new ideas are adopted by just 10% of the population it’s game over – thanks to human psychology and the propensity of the weak to follow the lead of the strong.
Crazy religions of the past succeeded because they had zealous advocates who would kill anyone who disagreed with them and terrify the superstitious masses with tales of eternal hellfire. Only the strong can withstand intimidation, and only the strong can set new trends in motion.
Are you one of the strong? Will you join the movement to change the world?
The elite will of course attempt to suppress any new opinions that threaten them, but in truth they have already lost. The tipping point against the elite has already been passed. No one respects or trusts them anymore. The only ingredient lacking now is what will replace the old system. That’s where meritocratic social capitalism comes in. No one else has any realistic and practical ideas so if you want a new society, shouldn’t you join us?
Ten percent is the golden number – the number that changes the world. Be part of that ten percent. Be a hero. Let future generations talk about YOU.
No one can rationally condemn merit and no one can rationally condemn a fairer distribution of wealth. Ours is the logical and inevitable dialectical upgrade of democratic free market capitalism to serve the people rather than the elite. Meritocratic social capitalism puts the people in charge, and the most expert people in the positions of power. No one – no individual or corporation – is ever allowed to become too rich or powerful. No privileged elites and dynastic families are allowed to develop. Equal opportunities and education are the unmovable core of meritocracy.
JOIN US. STEP INTO THE FUTURE. THE HOUR OF DELIVERANCE HAS SURELY COME.
So, will you be one of the ten percent who will change the world? Be a hero. Adopt our “Hero Philosophy” based on the hero monomyth.
IT’S TIME TO MAKE YOUR STAND IN LIFE. IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO BE AN AGENT OF CHANGE. IT’S TIME TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

1) Departure
All human beings are confronted with problems. These come in two types: inner and outer. The outer are the external obstacles, laid by other people, which block our path. The inner are the internal obstacles that we have raised ourselves.
In the hero monomyth, the hero uses the crisis provoked by an outer problem to resolve his profoundest inner problems. The outer and inner problems are inextricably linked: the hero will not succeed with the outer problem if he fails with the inner. The harder the outer problem, the deeper inside himself the hero must go. The greatest acts of heroism demand the greatest self transformation. The supreme external challenges require heroes capable of being gods: those who can transform the whole world by transforming themselves.
The vast majority of people inhabit a comfort zone where they seek easy pleasures to make life pass “pleasantly”. They don’t confront any external problems in any meaningful way. They engage ego-defence mechanisms such as denial, displacement and projection to avoid facing up to their problems. They are scared of challenging authority, breaking free of social customs, separating themselves from the herd, departing for daunting destinations.
Ordinary people are afraid of hard work, of taking risks, of being unusual and setting themselves “unrealistic” goals. They are afraid of their own inner demons and refuse to look at them. Above all, they are afraid of attaining their Higher Self because that will change their life forever in the most radical way, and may result in the complete severance with their old, comfortable way of life.
All of us are called by our Higher Self, but most of us resist the summons. If we want to be extraordinary, we have to cut the umbilical cord that links us to everything trivial and ordinary, but most of us never raise the knife that will free us. We are refuseniks and cowards, the legions of the bland and banal. We are “last men” devoted to petty self-interest and trivial comforts.
Those who pursue the easy life will never achieve anything great. They will never be heroes. Our whole culture is geared towards taking the soft option, of gratifying ourselves as swiftly as possible, hence this is the ultimate anti-hero society. It distrusts and fears true heroes. It likes only comic-book heroes or those who do exactly what society regards as “good” (i.e. as defined by the ruling establishment).
But the hero never allows himself to be defined by others. He defines himself; he creates himself. Only those with the courage to find their authentic self will ever be genuinely authentic. We live in a fake and phoney world. We live in bad faith. We have a false consciousness. We are inauthentic. We desperately need to build a hero culture, a society of heroes.
It’s time to depart on the long, hard road to find our Higher Selves. It’s time to separate ourselves from the ordinary world that has ensnared us with its trivial concerns and easy, disposable pleasures that reach their sell-by date almost as soon as they are touched. It’s time to cross the threshold that separates the world of Common Day from the extraordinary world.
The hero’s path is right there in front of us, all marked out for us, yet it’s a path that few will be taking. You want an extraordinary life? Then what are you going to do that is extraordinary? You want to be a hero? Then do something heroic. Take that first step into the Unknown Country and begin the process of transforming yourself from base metal into gold.
The hero monomyth is the supreme act of alchemy that takes the prima materia (the primary material) – ourselves – and purifies and perfects it until it shines, glints and gleams like the gold of God.
2) Initiation
The hero’s true journey begins at the point at which he crosses the threshold separating the ordinary from the extraordinary world. Jim Morrison said, “There are things known and things unknown and in between are The Doors.” When the hero opens the door that takes him from the world of common day to the uncommon world, his life changes forever. One way or another, he will never be the same again. He is leaving behind the familiar to venture into the Great Unknown where there is no comfort zone, no safety net.
The sheeple stare curiously at the strange door that leads to the new world. For a while, it seems enticing but as they shuffle closer, saying “baa” all the while, the door exudes a terrible power. It creates an invisible force field that keeps away all but the finest members of the human race. Even to reach the door is an impressive feat. To actually go through it means you are capable of becoming God. You are ready to be initiated into the highest mysteries.
The sheeple watch in awe as the door swings open and the hero steps through. Instantly, he vanishes from sight, and the door swings shut once more. The sheeple turn away and go back to grazing. “Oh, we’ll be heroes in our video games,” they say. “Doing it for real is so much hassle. A virtual hero’s as good as a real one.”
The hero – on the other side of the door, the side that only higher humanity ever experiences – has nothing but his inner divinity to sustain and guide him. There are no sheeple here. There are no easy paths, soft options or lazy dreams.
You did not come here for instant gratification. You came to transform yourself from clay into alchemical gold. You have chosen the hardest path, the path that mercilessly punishes all weakness. The bones of failed heroes lie strewn everywhere. Almost all of the Grail Knights – mightiest and most magnificent of men though they were – perished here. If they couldn’t make it then who can? You seriously think you can accomplish the impossible?
The hero immediately finds himself travelling downwards, into ever deepening darkness. The blackest and most forbidding mountains arise around him. The path is stony and painfully hard. He reaches the darkest of forests and hears the most terrifying noises…human screams.
Just as Dante did, the hero will have to open the gate of hell and venture into the Inferno where all of his deepest fears reside. On the other side, Paradise awaits, but how many can ever get there when hell itself stands between them and their goal?
Hell is the ultimate road of trials. Here you are subjected to every torment, everything from which you have fled in your ordinary life. Here you must reconcile all of the things that have troubled and disturbed you. You must encounter your Father and Mother and come to terms with them, not as their child, but as an equal adult who has put childish things behind you. You must confront all of the bullies who did you down, everyone who harmed you, all those who screwed you over. You must relive all of the things you fucked up in your life and understand why. You must encounter your anima/animus and resolve all the issues you have with the opposite sex.
You will encounter every demon, temptress, conman and monster. You have to overcome them all, and that means reaching into your own soul and summoning forth your Higher Self, that part of you that already has one foot in the divine order.
Your task, you now realise, is to replace your lower self with your divine self. Your lower self does not have a prayer of surviving in hell. Your lower self is weak, trivial, stupid, cowardly and soft. It wants easy pleasures and to fit in with the flocks of sheeple. Your Higher Self, on the other hand, is immortal and, when fully conscious, indistinguishable from God.
The gap between you and God is both infinitely wide and trivially small. Gnosis allows you to bridge the unbridgeable. Gnosis is ultimate intuition. Gnosis is about listening to the pulse of the cosmos. Gnosis is about separating your mind from the mortal world of ordinary consciousness and linear thinking and embracing the immortal and infinite world where everything is interconnected.
You must transcend yourself. You must reach for a miraculous ladder that disintegrates rung by rung as you climb it. There’s no way back. At the top of the ladder is another door, the one that takes you out of the darkness and into the infinite and eternal light.
What is the hero’s task all about? It’s about descending into your deepest self with absolute honesty and conviction, about getting rid of all the bullshit and delusion, all of the expectations of others that are fundamentally about them and nothing to do with you. It’s about asking yourself – “Who am I? What do I want? What really makes me tick? Do I have the courage to pursue my highest ambitions even though there is no guarantee of success, even though I will have to make enormous sacrifices and will become estranged from the sheeple who were once my friends? My status in their eyes may drop to zero. My family may disown me. The world will think I am mad. Yet how can I ignore my inner voice, the voice that tells me who I really am and of what I’m really capable?”
The hero is fearless, dedicated, irrepressible. He is self-defining and self-creating. He will not stop. He will not give in. He will do whatever it takes. That’s what makes him different from everyone else. They are incapable of making sacrifices. The hero knows that nothing great can be achieved without sacrifice. The hero must endure pain to enjoy the highest heights of human greatness.
The hero’s journey is always the same. He descends into the underworld where he must endure a ghastly ordeal in which his lower self perishes. Only then can the hero taste an astonishing spiritual rebirth where he is initiated into the higher mysteries. He takes hold of the sword of knowledge and with it he cuts through all unknown things and reveals their secret contents. He has penetrated to the Source.
At last, he is able to get to the top of the sacred ladder and open the exit door. The first sight that greets him is the great boon he has been searching for all his life – the Holy Grail itself. Is that a sight you want to see too? Then what price will you pay?
3) The Return
The hero has ventured into hell itself to discover the miraculous elixir that validates his existence and justifies all the hard choices he has made in life. He has overcome the most terrible obstacles and endured the most daunting ordeals. He has defied incredible odds and triumphantly seized his prize. But now he is faced with a fateful choice. Will he choose to stay in the extraordinary world and push on to heaven itself, or will he return to the ordinary world as a higher being who can help others to raise themselves up? Does he feel he has unfurnished business in the ordinary world?
In Hollywood movies, the hero almost invariably returns home. Yet to go back to the world of common day is fraught with danger. The forces that have been defeated on the way have regrouped and now they are intent on blocking the road home. Perhaps they can recover the elixir from the hero and steal his victory from him. Defeat at this stage would be catastrophic, undoing all the good that has been achieved.
And yet if the world’s call is insistent enough, the hero has no choice but to battle his old foes once more, even though they may be worse than ever. He may have to defeat the leader of the enemy forces, the quintessence of the opposition to everything he stands for, before he can reach the exit that leads him back home.
The hero is plagued with doubt. Can he triumph all over again against even greater odds? He is reassured that he now has the elixir to help him achieve the impossible, but when he crosses back over the threshold separating the ordinary and extraordinary worlds, will the elixir lose its potency? Will it be of any use in the ordinary world? Will it fade away in the harsh light of ordinary day? Will the unheroic, ordinary people accept its value? Perhaps it will demand too much of them. Will they reject it, and him with it? He may find himself ostracised, banished to the ends of the earth.
Yes, the elixir may prove a curse rather than a blessing. It may rouse enmity in the ordinary world. And perhaps it may demand that his final task is none other than to sacrifice himself for others. For the land to be healed, it’s often the case that the sacred king must die. Nothing will grow again in the Waste Land until the hero has nourished the ground with his precious elixir – which may be his own blood.
Yet the hero has made his decision. He has resolved to change the world, and he will allow nothing to get in his way. He is a world-historic figure, a man of destiny, one of the handful of men and women capable of breathing the air of the gods. He knows what it means to be free, to be the master of two worlds. He has joined the deities at the summit of Mount Olympus. Ordinary mortals lie far below, like ants, yet he has given his solemn word to help them scale the heights too and join him in a new, higher world.
Your attention please.
This is not a rehearsal.
This is not a drill.
This is your life.
Make the most of it.
Become a hero.
Bring the ultimate cosmic journey – your journey – to its appointed end.
Become God.

The Secret Order of M-Omega:
Foreword by Magus.
MANY OF THE GREAT ENDEAVOURS – the undertakings that shape the destiny of humanity begin with a fanfare, with pomp and circumstance, with marching bands, cheering crowds and the official approval of the “great and good”. But others begin unheralded, unsung and uncelebrated in the invisible undergrowth of the world where the talents of those not born into privilege go unremarked, undeveloped, unsought and unrewarded. Yet silent whispers in the cold night can become resounding shouts in the midday sun, shouts that topple proud kings, mighty nations and all those who believe themselves invulnerable to the “ordinary” people so far below them on the ladder of “status”.
What is the best possible world? It is the one where humanity has maximized its potential through the maximization of the individual potential of each and every person on earth. No one can be neglected. Every contribution is precious and unique. The chain is only as strong as the weakest link, so that weakest link must be adamantine if the chain is to be unbreakable. Everyone needs to be raised up, not just those born into privilege.
Humanity as a whole must strive to reach its fullest potential, to express the divine destiny that awaits all those, no matter how humble, in whom the spirit of God resides. Yet humanity is mired in trivia, greed, selfishness, narcissism and violence. Most human beings are servants, slaves, worker drones and paper shufflers, leading lives of “quite desperation”. Their potential is left to rot because it does not serve the needs of the Elite, who are interested only in themselves and the acquisition of ever greater power and wealth, of ever greater separation between them and the “masses”.
The Movement, and its inner core – the Secret Order of M-Omega – is the whisper that will change the world, that will be heard in every cave and mountain top, every island and lake, every remote corner where only the wild winds go. The Movement owes no debt to the past. It’s not weighed down by traditions. It’s a new enterprise for a new age. It’s free to be what it wants, free to define itself, free to create itself. The Movement can shape the world anew. It can be the beacon that illuminates the darkness.
The Movement is a spiritual, philosophical, political, radical, artistic, scientific, mathematical, religious, technological, economic and creative undertaking. It embraces all of the ingredients required to transform humanity.
If the world is the mirror of God and humanity is God’s reflection then God will recognise himself only when humanity has attained its omega point of perfection. The Secret Order of M-Omega has begun the long journey to humanity’s final destination – divinity. To indivisible communion between God and the human race.
The ultimate quest requires the finest knights, those imbued with courage, determination and supreme merit, those in whom the divine glow is already visible. The Secret Order of M-Omega can be the vehicle for humanity to travel to the glittering celestial plane. Only the finest may join its ranks, and it is then their sacred task to elevate everyone else.
May Abraxas bless this new secret society. May he assist it to illuminate this benighted world. May he confer upon it the greatest of all destinies, that of finally liberating the human race from the long, unendurable darkness. So, are you ready to change the world? Are you ready to become God?

The Meritocracy Party:
“Today, Friday, 19 October, 2007, saw the birth of the Meritocracy Party. Daybreak has come and the light looks brighter.” –The official launch of the Meritocracy Party
The Meritocracy Party campaigns to replace democracy with meritocracy. Democracy has become the single biggest obstacle to the rise of the most meritorious. In the USA, no matter your talents, you cannot become President unless you have access to vast wealth to fund your campaign. In Great Britain, social mobility – the opportunity to improve your social standing – has gone into reverse. If you are born into a poor family you are statistically almost certain to remain poor, regardless of your merits. If your parents are rich, you can start looking forward to a prosperous future, again regardless of your merits.
The Meritocracy Party seeks to remove the link between parental wealth and children’s outcomes in life, and to eradicate nepotism and cronyism, the dual drivers of privilege. The Meritocracy Party is “viral”. You don’t need to join anything, seek anyone’s permission, go to any meetings or pay any money. If you’re broadly in tune with the meritocratic ethos, all you have to do is go out and spread the word.
The world can be changed: conversation by conversation amongst intelligent people.
******
The following material concentrates on the British political system, but the same arguments apply in every country. The idea is to have a Meritocracy Party in every country of the world, all of which are affiliated to create the first global political Party. With global capital relentlessly forcing down costs (people’s pay) while increasing their own profits, only a global political response will suffice. Whatever country you are in, start building the meritocratic future.

The Facts.
(Source: Superclass: The Global Power Elite and the World They Are Making by David Rothkopf.)
● The world is controlled by a global elite of approximately 6,000 people.
● 94% of them are men, and their average age is 60.
● 2% of the world’s population own 50% of the world’s wealth.
● 1,100 billionaires have double the assets of the world’s poorest 2.5 billion people.
● The world’s 50 largest financial institutions control a third of the world’s assets.
● The world’s 250 biggest companies generate sales of about a third of the world’s GDP.
Very few of this super-rich elite are elected. Many have attended privileged schools, colleges and universities. Many belong to exclusive clubs and societies. Many inherited great wealth and many just happened to be present when great assets became available (as in the case of the 36 Russian oligarchs). Many have strong family and religious links. Many are close friends. They control practically everything worth controlling. They don’t listen to us, and they don’t care about us. So, the choice is simple. Let’s do nothing and go through life like peasants bowing to feudal kings. Or let’s stand up to the elite and take what is ours. It’s time to replace the system that oppresses us. Democracy is the global elite’s main instrument of political control of the masses – their brilliant trick to make us think they are ruling on our behalf. Meritocracy, the antidote to corrupt democracy, will eliminate nepotism and cronyism. It’s time to change the world we live in. It’s time for meritocracy.

Are you leading the best life of which you are capable?
The Five Tests.
Are you about to take a big decision? How do you know it’s the right one? Here are the five tests:
● The Eternal Recurrence Test – this thing you are about to do: if you had to watch yourself performing this action an infinite number of times, would you still go ahead? If so, do it. If not, don’t.
● The Movie Of Your Life Test – this thing you are about to do: would you want it to be in the movie of your life, the scenes that show you at your very best? If so, do it. If not, don’t.
● The Gravestone Test – this thing you are about to do: would you want it recorded on your gravestone after your death? If so, do it. If not, don’t.
● The Mirror Test – this thing you are about to do: will you be able to look at yourself in the mirror afterwards and feel proud of what you have done? If so, do it. If not, don’t.
● The “Others” Test – this thing you are about to do: will you be happy for others to know all about it? If so, do it. If not, don’t.
If you obey these five tests, you will never perform any acts of which you are ashamed. You will never lie and cheat, you will never be a slave to others and you will never do pathetic, unworthy things. You will take pride in everything you do. You will be happy for others to know about your life. Your life will be the best it can be. Your life will be your personal masterpiece, sculpted by you to perfection.
In fact, there is really only one test: the first one, Eternal Recurrence. Are you proud enough of the thing you are about to do to wish it to be repeated endlessly? If so, you will be delighted for it to be in the movie of your life, you will be proud to have it recorded on your gravestone, you will be thrilled to look at yourself in the mirror afterwards, and you will be eager for the whole world to know what you have done. You will have complete self-respect and you will command the respect of everyone who knows you. You will be a person who has lived life absolutely on your own terms, and not slavishly and humiliatingly followed someone else’s path.
All other tests – such as those of religion (e.g. the Ten Commandments), the laws of your society, the expectations of family and friends – are one hundred percent irrelevant. If you obey the Law of Eternal Recurrence, you are a person of merit. Welcome to the Meritocracy Party. You have found your true home.

The Race you can never win (unless you’re one of “us”):
You’re the fastest runner in the world and you take your place at the starting line for the most important race of your life. You look up the track and see some obese guy in a suit standing five metres from the finishing tape. You complain to the race organiser but he tells you to mind your own business and concentrate on your own race. You think it must be some bizarre joke and it will all get sorted out later. The starting pistol sounds and you set off, running faster than you ever have in your life. But no matter how fast you run, no matter how good you are, you’ll never beat the fat man, puffing, panting and waddling his way to the finishing line.
Fattie wins the gold medal, and receives the adulation of the crowd. Two attractive blondes throw themselves at him. Everyone tells him how brilliant he is. He says he owes it all to God and his loving family who bought him a place at the best of schools and paid a million dollars to allow him to start five metres from the finishing line. The crowd cheers and demands that the winner’s parents be allowed to stand on the podium alongside their brilliant son. A reporter asks father, mother and son what they think of the second-placed athlete who broke the world record but still lost. They all shrug and say in unison, “Well, he’s not a member of our family, so who cares.” The crowd, full of like-minded families, rises to acclaim them. “If only we could all be like them,” they sigh. The world-record holder goes back to his housing project and dead end job. His colleagues tell him he’s a loser, and turn their backs on him.
Welcome to the anti-meritocratic world, this world. What are you going to do about it? Will you stand back and watch while cronyism, nepotism, the old school tie, the private club, the right university, the right accent, the right background, the right secret society, the right religion, the right family, destroy merit so that their chosen ones can prosper at your expense. It’s time to smash the conspiracy. Break up all the mechanisms that allow privileged groups within society to rig the system in their favour and penalise anyone who doesn’t belong to their insidious cliques.
The Meritocracy Party seeks to ensure that everyone, as far as possible, starts the race of life from the same starting line. Then we’ll see who the fastest runners really are; who deserves the medals, who should justly receive the acclaim and the rewards. At the moment, “who you know” (nepotism and cronyism) is vastly more important than “what you know” (merit). How often do we hear the mantra, “Networking is the fastest way up the ladder.” Meritocracy will push over this toxic ladder. From now on, demonstrable talent, not your social connections, will be the fastest way to make progress in life.

Is it possible for you to succeed in life?:
Do you think you have a fair chance in life? Do you think that any opportunity is open to you, and you simply need enough talent to seize it? Think again. Society is organised around the systematic denial of equal opportunities to the vast majority of citizens. People from working class backgrounds are relentlessly discriminated against in order to provide enough scope for middle and upper class individuals to permanently secure all of the best jobs. The inept child of wealthy parents has drastically better life chances than the most talented child from a housing project.
The irony is that most working class people are accomplices in their own subjugation. They buy into the ludicrous myth that the only thing holding them back is themselves. They are presented with a few examples of working class people making good and they conclude that all is well with the system. They have a National Lottery mentality. “It could be you,” runs the marketing slogan, and millions of working class people dutifully rush out to buy their tickets. It’s beyond their comprehension that although it could be you, it’s close to certain that it won’t be you. Every week, they fall for the same trick. They’re being taxed for their stupidity, for their escapist fantasies, for their inability to understand basic statistics. The powers-that-be don’t maintain their dominance by being foolish. They deploy sophisticated, and not so sophisticated, psychological weapons to deceive the masses. Allowing a lucky few of the working class to succeed is one of their main strategies. It could be you, they whisper like Sirens. But, as with the Lottery, it won’t be.
It’s time to wake up. See the game for what it is. Understand what’s really going on. The working class are like the helpless humans in The Matrix, imagining themselves free but in fact in the worst of prisons. The artificial intelligence that controlled The Matrix knew exactly what was required to delude its victims. For “controller” in our society, read middle and upper classes. They are the puppet-masters, the illusionists, the grand deceivers.
Since the dawn of time, there has been a global conspiracy, and its nature never changes. The conspirators are the rich and powerful and their aim, their only aim, is to maintain their wealth and power indefinitely. Only on the rarest occasions, when their hatred of the masses, their greed and contempt, have reached fantastic proportions (such as in France in 1789 and Russia in 1917), do they slip up. Are they on the cusp of slipping up again? The wealth of some individuals is obscene, and their conspicuous and arrogant spending a constant provocation that will in due course receive an appropriate response.
The Meritocracy Party promotes a single rule: that people should be judged entirely on their own merits and not those of their parents or any other individuals or groups with which they may be related or associated. The Family is the anti-meritocratic institution par excellence since it cares only about its own interests regardless of the objective merits of the family members. Parents of inept children will think they have done their job perfectly if they secure wonderful jobs and lifestyles for their unmeritorious offspring. Their “accomplishment” is that they have massively damaged the interests of the State, they have ensured that incompetence is ingrained in society, and they have guaranteed all of the ills from which our nation surely suffers.

Regression to the Mean: How the Super Rich Defy Nature:
Taller than average parents tend to have children shorter than they are. Shorter than average parents tend to have children taller than they are. Genius parents tend to have less intelligent offspring. Stupid parents tend to have children that are more intelligent. Gamblers enjoying fantastic winning streaks tend, in the long run, to lose their winnings. Gamblers, on terrible losing streaks, would, if they were able to continue playing, win back most of their losses. Welcome to the great stabilising force of nature: regression to the mean. Without it, we could breed freak populations of giants and dwarves, humans with the intelligence of gods and others with the intelligence of goldfish. “Lucky” gamblers might win the wealth of nations, and losers, if they could stay in the game, run up national debts. Without regression to the mean, stable society would disintegrate.
Wherever you see regression to the mean seemingly being subverted, you know trouble is near. There’s one element of our society in which regression to the mean is defied to a dizzying degree: wealth. The rich just keep getting richer, and nothing ever reins them back in. Equally, there are billions of poor people on earth who will never acquire any meaningful wealth. How can such an unfair distribution of wealth have come about? How can it be so ruthlessly sustained? It seems to defy all logic. Yet there’s nothing mysterious about it.
In any fair, unrigged system regression to the mean will occur. When regression to the mean is seen not to operate then you have certain proof that mechanisms have been put in place to prevent a fair outcome. Capitalist democracy, with the family at its core (for “family” read nepotism and cronyism), is the precise vehicle in the West used to perpetuate unfairness. Meritocracy is the antidote. In a meritocratic society, every family will enjoy its day in the sun.
Regression to the mean guarantees it. There will be no more great dynasties wielding their power, wealth and influence for centuries. Don’t you want to have your chance, based on your merit?
If wealth could be equated with height then most of us would be the size of ants, while the super rich would be as high as mountains. Do you think that’s healthy? As an ant, you wouldn’t even be able to contemplate the size of the super rich. And they wouldn’t notice if they stood on you and crushed you to death. And, in your heart, aren’t you already aware that you’re invisible to the super rich? They couldn’t care less about you. As far as they’re concerned, you don’t exist. Just as we only notice ants when they crawl over our hand on a hot day, so it is with the super rich and us.
Never forget that they didn’t get where they are by talent. They are the beneficiaries of a rigged system. You, by playing along with it, perpetuate it. A word to the wise – wise up, suckers!
Imagine a super-rich person going into a luxury restaurant. No one looks at him. No one acknowledges him. No one takes his jacket. No one shows him to his seat. No one offers him a drink. No one gives him a menu. No one serves him any food. If no one does anything for him, his wealth is meaningless. Wealth is an illusion that you choose to reify i.e. to make it solid, tangible. Wealth is nothing more than an arrangement between people. The essence of this arrangement is that poor people choose to accept that they are deficient in this imaginary substance (money). They acknowledge that the wealthy can supply it to them and they eagerly pursue it because then they will become less “deficient”. Yet the whole system is merely an elaborate set of transactions in a fantasy currency. The arrangement can be broken at any time if sufficient numbers choose to opt out. The ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes, the most famous of the Cynics, held wealth in contempt. In a world of Diogenes’s, the illusion of wealth would dissolve.
But the beneficiaries of the money arrangement – the wealthy – do everything in their power to maintain the illusion. They are the Wizards of Oz, and they aren’t going to let anyone see behind the curtain. If you rejected their arrangement, they would be no different from you. So, don’t blame anyone else for your poverty and their wealth. If you choose to sign up to an arrangement that guarantees you a subservient role, what right do you have to complain? The wealthy are right in concluding that you’re a loser and a failure because only an idiot signs up be a slave when, at any time, he can choose liberty instead.
You should accept the money arrangement only if you get a fair slice of the pie. It’s well known that the vast majority of assets in any country are controlled by a tiny percentage of the population. Why not eat from a different pie, where you get more than a few crumbs. Vote for the Meritocracy Party.
******
Meritocratic Aims.
The Meritocracy Party aims to replace consumerism with high culture. We wish to place ideas above money, aesthetics above shopping, community over the “I’m all right, Jack” ideology. Private property leads to private lives, dislocated communities, suspicion and competition between neighbours. We are not allies, we are enemies. How do we heal the rifts between us? We have to reduce the importance of the main focus of division between us: lust for money.
The Five Meritocratic Principles.
1) NO NEPOTISM
It’s not who your parents are, it’s who YOU are.
2) NO CRONYISM
It’s not what others can do for you, it’s what YOU can do.
3) NO DISCRIMINATION
Sex, race, religion, age, background are irrelevant. Talent is everything.
4) EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES
You start from the same point as everyone else, and you go as far as your talents take you.
5) REWARDING MERIT
The highest rewards for the highest achievers.
******
Goals.
1) To implement the five Meritocratic Principles.
2) To abolish the monarchy since it contradicts the first Meritocratic Principle. In a monarchy, the only thing that matter is the identity of your parents. In a meritocracy, your parents are irrelevant. The advent of meritocracy is accompanied by the automatic abolition of the monarchy. No meritocrat would seek the ‘permission’ of a monarch to govern.
3) To abolish the House of Lords (the House of Cronyism), which contradicts the second Meritocratic Principle since it’s the product of patronage. In a properly constituted meritocratic system, there is no requirement for a second House.
4) To abolish Party Politics. Political parties are irrelevant in a meritocratic system. Parliament will be populated entirely by independent, meritocratic MPs with no set political affiliations (other than their commitment to meritocracy).
5) Each independent MP is selected on the basis of their merit relating to their field of expertise. So, the Chancellor of the Exchequer is selected from amongst practising economists (and will be elected only by other economists). The Secretary of State for Health will be someone who works in the health field (and is elected only by health workers); the Secretary for Defence will be from the armed forces; the Foreign Secretary a serving official in the Foreign Office; the Secretary of State for Education a serving teacher/headmaster/
6) The Prime Minister will be elected by the MPs from amongst their number. Every five years, there will be a general election in which every MP has to seek the endorsement of their voters, or be replaced.
7) To abolish Cabinet Collective Responsibility. The principle that people should promote views with which they privately disagree is absurd and ipso facto brings politicians into disrepute. Why haven’t they resigned if they disagree with a policy? How can they defend a position that they themselves don’t believe in? If they publicly support a policy they privately reject, they are hypocrites.
8) Critiques of government policy will be provided by select committees of MPs. Special committees comprising scientists and philosophers may also be used, chosen because of their critical-thinking abilities and their expertise in challenging assumptions. Committees of artists, entrepreneurs and designers may also be called upon. Pressure groups will be given a prominent voice too since meritocracy welcomes close scrutiny.
9) To abolish the ‘moralising’ approach to politics (what’s ‘right’ and what’s ‘wrong’ – the politics of principle) in favour of the scientific method (what works and what doesn’t – the politics of pragmatism).
10) To increase Inheritance Tax to 100%. No one should be able to posthumously transfer an advantage to another person of their choosing. The state should acquire all of the assets of the deceased and should reinvest them to advance the public good, particularly via education.
11) Education is the bedrock of merit, and should be accorded the highest importance in the meritocratic state. The current education system is a demonstrable failure and should be overhauled in every respect. Our education system is designed to produce shoppers (these being what capitalist democracies require to sustain their economic model). True education is the opposite of shopping. It liberates the mind, not the credit card.
12) To promote the ideas of the most radical, freethinking, independently minded philosophers e.g. Nietzsche, Baudrillard, Rousseau, Diogenes, Camus, the Situationist International.
13) To provide community-based alternatives to the family (based, for example, on the Kibbutz model) so that if a family fails, its members can be nurtured in a different, constructive and productive environment of psychological and educational well-being.

(Shortly after our forum and comments page went live, they were attacked by the “hacktivist” group that refers to itself as Anonymous. The following is our response to their attack.)
In the movie V for Vendetta, an army of heroic, principled individuals wearing the mask of Guy Fawkes brought to an end a vicious, totalitarian government.
A group called “Anonymous” adopted the idea of a noble, anonymous army attacking the privileged elite and the enemies of free speech. So far, so good. Yet within an extremely short period, the liberators became the tyrants. How did it happen?
This article provides an analysis of how a group that embarked with the most honourable of intentions became the same as the fascist dictatorship it initially opposed. How did this tragedy happen to Anonymous, and is it a stark warning to all other groups that seek to bring to an end the rule of the Old World Order?

Here’s what went wrong with Anonymous. The qualities it regarded as its greatest strength proved its greatest defect, and it was obvious from the outset that this would be the case. It embraced the idea of a leaderless, grassroots movement where everyone who felt they were in tune with a broadly expressed agenda was welcomed on board. Any new recruits, completely unvetted, were free to call themselves “Anonymous” and to act in the name of Anonymous. This of course immediately made the organisation a hostage to the quality of people who chose to associate themselves with Anonymous. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link and if you apply no quality control to your chain, you end up with innumerable weak links. Anonymous is now such a chain, snapping everywhere.
Any group that has no commitment to quality and standards will inevitably slide down into the world of the lowest common denominator, of junk and crazy people. How does Anonymous prevent itself from attracting psychopaths? It has no mechanism for stopping vicious, destructive, cretinous nutcases from attaching themselves to the group. The self-indulgent, gleeful, destructive hacking in which these psychos engage then defines the Anonymous “brand” and quickly the world is able to see it for the monstrosity it is. In any system hostile to quality, the “wisdom of crowds” swiftly succumbs to the “madness of mobs”.
We offered a forum and comments section to people who wished to engage in a debate about how to change society for the better and overthrow Abrahamism and privileged elites. Because of Anonymous – a group of fascist hackers opposed to free speech – we have had to remove these facilities. We apologise to all of those who have been denied their right to speak, but that’s entirely the responsibility of the totalitarian “vigilantes” of Anonymous. They are like the Nazi stormtroopers of the 1920s and 30s who attacked any political groups that dared to oppose them.
Anonymous – like all fascists – have appointed themselves the judges of what is acceptable content on the internet. “Acceptable” is whatever they approve and “unacceptable” is whatever they dislike. The Old World Order did no damage to our website in four years of activity. Despite their myriad failings, they did not attempt to shut down our site regardless of our relentless critique of them. Anonymous, on the other hand, attacked us and tried to shut us down the very moment an opportunity came their way – and their chosen tactics were sleazy porn, viruses, and JavaScript sabotage scripts (their juvenile preoccupation with sex is all too reflective of their “philosophy”; Anonymous name their operations things like “Operation Tit”). It’s now obvious who is on the side of free speech and who isn’t. Anonymous are worse than the disease. In fact, they ARE the disease.
We declare ANONYMOUS excommunicate and anathema. We cast them into the outer darkness. We judge them damned, with the Devil and his fallen angels and all the reprobates, to eternal fire and everlasting pain.
Anonymous have proved themselves the enemies of quality, high standards and merit, of a new meritocratic society free of Abrahamic brainwashing. They have declared war on the global meritocratic movement. They stand for nothing but nihilistic destruction of anything that annoys them. How could these cretins and imbeciles ever hope to comprehend the work of Pythagoras, Leibniz, Goethe and Hegel? They are retards. They don’t even know what their cause is. To “defend” free speech, they attack any sites they find objectionable. Yeah, real smart, you fucking zombies. Since when did anyone appoint you the arbiters of what people can read and do on the internet? Fascist fuckers.
Anonymous are counter-revolutionaries. By attacking us, they have shown themselves to be on the side of the Abrahamic brainwashing machine and the Old World Order elite families of dynastic privilege who have dominated our world for millennia.
When has Anonymous ever done anything constructive? Can anyone point to any creative achievements on their part? Their “track record” is one of relentless, malicious hacking and sabotage. There is no evidence whatever that they are capable of doing anything other than hacking. Where is there grand online project to transform the world, to bypass the corporations and stop feeding the bank accounts of the billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg? No such project exists. These retards are capable solely of destruction. Their “skills” are those of the pure, destructive hacker, and we have seen over the years that nearly all of these people are autistic.
They lack “theory of mind” and empathy. They are barely human. Any person who spends all of their free time teaching themselves how to hack computers is about the saddest cunt you could ever imagine. Think of all the great subjects you could spend your time on. Would learning the tricks of the hacking trade ever appear on the list of worthwhile activities that have enriched the human condition?
The members of Anonymous are practically retarded. They never contribute positively to anything. They never construct. They never create. We have spent years building an edifice of 2,000,000 words. We have CREATED. We, the creators, define the world. The hackers are destroyers, so, self-evidently, they have to wait until the creators have built something before they can spring to life and into “attack and destroy” mode. They are parasites. They are full of envy and jealousy of all those who can create things. In their helpless, despairing, nihilistic rage at their own absolute inadequacy, they lash out at what others have built. They themselves build nothing. After all, what the fuck could a hacker ever build? You don’t become a hacker because you are creative and constructive. You do so for the opposite reasons.
We, and all other creators, could be said in a manner of speaking to control Anonymous. Without us, without the efforts we put in, they would have nothing to hack and sabotage. They are like cave people. They are Luddites. Every meritocratic, creative person should condemn these fascist hackers. Are they acting in YOUR name? So in whose name are they acting? Who are the puppetmasters behind the scenes? Are Anonymous now a vehicle of the OWO to attack the enemies of the OWO? Are CIA hackers now part of the Anonymous machine? It’s not as if the “leadership” of Anonymous have any idea who is acting in their name and what they are doing. There are no controls at all. Anonymous has afforded the perfect opportunity to the authorities to sabotage any controversial site such as ours that attacks everything the establishment stands for.
“We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.”
You are Jerks. There are millions of you (jerks are in plentiful supply). You’re autistic (hence why you don’t forget). You have no empathy and theory of mind (hence why you never forgive). And we expect you to keep on hacking since you have no other skills. What else to geeks do with their time?
Who are the “regular” operatives of Anonymous (i.e. those not working on behalf of the Power Elite to attack anyone who opposes the Power Elite)? Can we profile them? Of course we can. They are overwhelmingly teenage boys fascinated with computers. They all use Unix and Linux operating systems. They’ve taught themselves hacking techniques and they all know JavaScript.
They are typically put upon by the real world. They are bullied at school and struggle to find jobs because employers rightly regard them as “weird”, illiterate and socially inept. They have subnormal emotional intelligence. Many of them are on the autistic spectrum and suffer from obsessive compulsive disorder. While being skilled at computing, they are practically useless at all other subjects. They are ignorant of art, literature, philosophy, mathematics, psychology and science. They spend most of their time with computers and are fanatical video gamers.
The only power they have in life comes from their obsession with computing. Without that, they would be literally talentless. So, their whole identity is invested in computing. They express themselves through computing. Without computers, they are lost.
These are the rank and file of Anonymous, and all of them have been given “permission” to attack anyone and anything that they personally deem hostile to the aims of Anonymous. Of course, no debates are undertaken. There’s no considered analysis or judgement. A person’s individual tastes and opinions are all that matter. If one geek in a bedroom doesn’t like something, he attacks it in the name of Anonymous. He feels proud of himself when he creates disruption. He has exercised POWER in the real world, and how intoxicating it is. Very quickly, he grows addicted to it. He loves destroying things, vandalising things, making the world that ignores him pay attention. Because otherwise he would be literally invisible. No one looks at these people in broad daylight. No one sees them. They cast no reflection, nor shadow. It’s as if they’re not there at all.
Such a person now becomes an exponent of V for Vendetta in the truest sense. He simply attacks whatever he dislikes; anyone and anything against which he has a personal vendetta. There’s no ideology behind his attacks, no nobility, no honour, no philosophy, no cause. He simply attacks because he CAN. Anyone who irritates him, no matter how slightly, feels his WRATH. And such people are always wrathful because their lives are vacuums. They are HOLLOW MEN, devoid of any commitment to any overarching cause. Their cause is nothing but their own vendettas, their own grudges, their own scores to settle.
But, remember, they never act in their own name – always in that of Anonymous. Slowly but surely, Anonymous becomes a vehicle for attacking anything that geeks, nerds and dorks find offensive. It becomes a fascist group dedicated to closing down anything to which its geek members object. They deny others free speech – in the name, would you believe it, of free speech! They wreck things not because those things are wrong but just because they don’t like them. They appoint themselves judge, jury and executioner. They are criminals. Real criminals. They have no constructive intent and nothing positive to say or contribute.
The Anonymous members who attacked our site had the opportunity to present their case against us via our free speech forum. But of course that would require intelligence, creativity and having something to say. The morons of Anonymous have no interest in that. They’re hackers and hacking (destroying) is the only thing that gives them LULZ (as these brain-dead cretins like to say). They stand for nothing other than hacking. Hacking is their drug and God because it is their single avenue to power in this world. They have no philosophy to announce to the world.
Anonymous is now just an organisation of out and out hackers wrecking anything they disagree with. There is no CAUSE. They’re a bunch of sad teenagers in their bedrooms venting their personal animus against the world.
The members of Anonymous inhabit the nerdosphere. They support dorkocracy and geekarchy. They are the uncoolest people imaginable. They are the sad losers at the back of the class. They’re despised by the smart, academic kids and equally despised by the street kids. No one wants anything to do with them. They’re the eternal losers. They have become so bitter that they’ve created ANONYMOUS to strike back against the whole world. But all they can do is hack. That’s their one and only “skill” and it ain’t much to write home about, is it? They’re not freedom fighters, they’re frustrated geeks wanting the world to take them seriously. But no one ever will because they have precisely zero to offer. Go back to your bedrooms and masturbate over your pictures of anal sex, you fucking halfwit wankers.
So, are you still on the side of free speech, you geek retards? Free speech means that you have to accept opinions you don’t like. It means you have to accept personal criticism. You cunts don’t accept any criticism at all. You are 100% fascists. Sure, by hacking websites, you can silence your critics, but all you have actually done is expose your fascist agenda. You should give yourselves a new name – The Fascist Troll Collective opposed to free speech.
Anonymous like to say: “The Corrupt Fear Us, the Honest Support Us, the Heroic Join Us.”
You lying cunts. You are totally corrupt and totally dishonest psycho hackers who destroy free speech sites for LULZ – as if that’s some kind of justification. No “hero” would ever join Anonymous. You are a fascist organisation of teenage autistic hackers. You have no agenda and no manifesto other than destructive LULZ which you try to dignify as some sort of attack on corporations. You are moronic retards. You ought to be in psychiatric wards. You have no contribution to make to the New World Order of justice, freedom and merit. You are the enemies of all of those things.
We challenge the leadership to justify their attack on our site. State your case. If you can’t then you are nothing but a rogue hacking machine with no “intelligence”, no platform, no agenda other than LULZ. Your operatives must have had a reason for attacking us. What is it? If they have no reasons then YOU are the enemies of the people and you must be destroyed. You are fascists. You are the enemies of all decent, honourable, meritocratic people campaigning for a new society.
We placed a forum for free speech on our website and it was quickly attacked by a “member” of Anonymous from Buenos Aires in Argentina (backed up by two other Spanish-speaking Anonymous members; one in Cordoba in Argentina and the other in Barcelona in Spain who monitor our website round the clock. The Spanish cunt accesses our site every fifteen minutes: that’s what it takes to be a hacker – you must have severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and autism). The Argentinian had no rational arguments to make. He attacked an English-speaking site even though he can’t speak English and therefore had no idea what the site says. He posted pictures of anal sex and of a man with female breasts – so sophisticated, huh? Such pictures are of course highly revealing about the contents of his own mind. He has extreme body image issues – he’s probably morbidly obese – and he’s obsessed with anal sex because life metaphorically fucks him up the ass all of the time.
He posted all of the usual Anonymous junk – like anyone actually cares! – and then infected the webpage with a virus to make it unusable (characteristically, it was a virus-contaminated image of anal sex – this jerk certainly has serious concerns over his sexuality!). So, the page was destroyed and he succeeded in depriving others of the free speech.
He continued to hang around to gloat, although of course he never had anything meaningful to say. He was completely unable to offer any philosophical justification for his actions. He was manifestly a person of subnormal intelligence. Like autistic savants, computer hackers can be highly skilled in this one arena and functionally retarded in every other aspect of their life. This was such a person.
He has disgraced the entire Anonymous Movement and exposed it for what it is – an out of control group of teenage hackers who now think they have the right to dictate to the rest of the world and decide what can and cannot be said. They are the absolute enemies of free speech. They have become like the Borg from Star Trek. They are a collective mind, a hive intelligence (as they describe themselves) of people with extremely high hacking skills and correspondingly low, subhuman skills in every other field. They engage in groupthink, share almost identical tastes and believe themselves “gods” in the context of computers. The more that life laughs at them and mocks their inadequacies, the more they rage against the machine. Everyone is to blame except them.
Many people deploy a cloak of anonymity to allow them to exercise free speech in a repressive world; but Anonymous don’t actually have anything to say. They have no manifesto. We gave our Anonymous troll many opportunities to articulate a position. But he couldn’t. He had zero philosophy. He was a nihilist, a destroyer, a cipher. Anonymous is full of these clowns. It has become a gigantic circus, but no one’s laughing.
Drunk on their own power over the billions of people who couldn’t care less about computing, these hackers (and how dare they claim to be anything other than that – their true character is now revealed for all to see) are waging a war against free speech and against anyone who opposes them in any way. It’s not too strong to say that they are a terrorist organisation. Terrorists destroy buildings in real space – these terrorist hackers destroy infrastructure in cyberspace. They dress up their terrorism as some sort of noble cause when in fact it’s sheer pettiness, vindictiveness and teenage rage against the world. They’re pathetic, a joke. They have as much to do with the true message of V for Vendetta as Mussolini’s black-shirted fascists.
Anyone who has read George Orwell’s Animal Farm will recognize the process. The animals, led by the pigs, ousted their human oppressors, but by the end of the novel, the pigs were fraternizing with their old human masters, to the dismay of all the non-pigs: “The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”
Thus it is with Anonymous. The pigs have become the oppressors. Theirs is the mask of the fascist, of the terrorist hacker, determined to silence everything that their tiny autistic minds find distasteful. They have no “position” to articulate, no cause to fight for, no philosophy to espouse. They are just cyber hyenas attacking anything they dislike. They are a plague of cyber locusts.
But who cares? Go ahead. Destroy our site. Feast on it until the bones are bleached. The day we start giving a shit what a morbidly obese, retarded Argentinian hacker thinks about anything will be the day they sell ice cream in hell. Go and eat more paella, you fat fuck.
The difference between us is that we stand for something while you are a vacuum, an empty space, an absence, a void. Nothing will ever cure you. You’re already eternally fucked, and you know it better than we do – because you have to live with yourself every day. And what hell could be greater than that?
Why don’t you write a JavaScript routine to print out what a sad, fat fuck you are, what a retarded failure of a human being? You’re the all-time loser, a pathetic cunt hiding in your bedroom. Nothing’s going to change that. Put on your Anonymous mask all day long, retard, because no one wants to see your face, you fucking sad freak.
Hey, amigo, you have a serious problem. We’re very smart and you’re very dumb. We’re highly articulate and all you can do is code viruses. We stand for something while you don’t stand for anything (other than puerile hacking for LULZ). A computer geek can never win an argument. All they can do is sabotage the forum in which the argument takes place. They try to shut down free speech because free speech is no use to geeks – who can barely speak at all. Have you ever tried talking to one? But the debate goes on regardless. All of the material on this website is already available on Amazon (look up Adam Weishaupt, Michael Faust and Mike Hockney). So, even if Anonymous destroy our free speech site, anyone interested in our work, in our free speech, can get it there instead (but unfortunately you’ll have to pay for it rather than getting it free as at present). This article will itself soon be immortalised on Amazon to provide a permanent record of what a bunch of geek freaks Anonymous are. They are the definition of “uncool” and total losers. By the way, how considerate of you to think of our hard-pressed bank balance – and our bank manager passes on his fond regards (he thinks it’s insane to impart the secrets of the world for free).
So, amigo, do you think you’ve done a bang-up job for Anonymous? Are you a geek hero, a conquering dork, the veritable King of the Nerds? Or have you made a fool of yourself and the rest of your hacking gang and exposed your fascist freak squad for what they truly are? You’re a fat, anally fixated mummy’s boy locked in your bedroom 24/7 with all your anal porn magazines. Why don’t you do something useful like learning English? The Spanish Inquisition has been out of action for centuries, you fascist Franco fucker.
Did you know that these sad freaks spend their lives looking up IP addresses and server vulnerabilities, finding “back doors” and ways to infect computers with JavaScript routines and viruses? What a sad and pathetic way to spend your life. That’s almost the definition of a failed and futile life. Only autistic OCD sufferers would spend their lives that way. One word will be written on their tombstone – GEEK! – and everyone will snigger.
Never forget – the Geek shall never inherit the earth. Adios, LOSER!
TO ANYONE WHO IS SERIOUS ABOUT CHANGING THE WORLD, JOIN OUR NEW MODEL ARMY. WE DON’T GO AROUND HACKING OR POSTING PORN LIKE FIVE- YEAR-OLDS. WE’RE CREATING THE BLUEPRINT FOR A BRAND NEW HUMANITY, FREE OF ALL OF THE MISTAKES OF THE PAST. THE OLD WORLD ORDER WILL NEVER FEAR AUTISTICS IN MASKS. THEY WILL FEAR A NEW POLITICAL PARTY – THE MERITOCRACY PARTY – COMMITTED TO INTRODUCING 100% INHERITANCE TAX TO REMOVE THE MONEY FROM THE PRIVILEGED DYNASTIC ELITES AND REDISTRIBUTE IT AMONGST THE PEOPLE. IN THE USA, 400 ELITE PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME WEALTH AS THE 150 MILLION POOREST AMERICANS. 400 VERSUS 150 MILLION!!! ISN’T IT TIME TO INVEST IN THE 150 MILLION? ISN’T IT TIME FOR JUSTICE?
WE ARE THE MOVEMENT!

Deconstructing “Anonymous”.
Who are “Anonymous”? – Filthy, lying, hacking, fascist scum opposed to free speech. For days now, Spanish-speaking members of Anonymous have been attempting to destroy this site. They are probing this site 24/7 and we can track all of their infantile manoeuvres. This is a free speech site and these fascists are attacking us in the name of – would you believe it? – “free speech”! They are cretins. We shall now take a moment to deconstruct their official flag, which you can see, for example, on their Wikipedia entry.
Note that, according to their own design, they are headless, brainless, mindless and lacking any intelligence. They have a question mark where their head ought to be, demonstrating that they are clueless, don’t know what they’re doing and have no platform, manifesto or agenda other than LULZ – mindless hacking for kicks and to impress their equally retarded friends. The central figure is placed in front of a globe, revealing that they seek global domination. Note that the figure wears the suit and tie of the corporate world. Are they in the employ of the Old World Order? Are they the new sabotage unit of the Power Elite, wrecking any sites that promote an agenda of resistance to the corporate elite?
Read our article on the psychopathology of this terrorist, criminal, hacking group, followed by our article on the global meritocracy movement to free the world from the rule of the Power Elite. One group is full of children wrecking anything they don’t like, posting porn, viruses and anything else that gives them a giggle; the other is an adult political agenda. Make up your own mind as to which is which. Join a serious, constructive and creative movement for change. Hackers are destructive scum with nothing to offer the world. Hackers can’t build or create. The mindset of hackers is that of autistics and those suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder. They can devote 24/7 to their attempts to wreck websites via viruses, sabotage scripts and “denial of service”. These are the people who spam you and infect your machines with viruses. They are the people who try to hijack your browser, log your keystrokes, steal your identity and commit fraud against you. They are criminal gangs.
Defend Free Speech – Resist ANONYMOUS!!! Stand up against the fascists who seek to control what can be said on the internet. Resist criminal hackers trying to wreck the internet and steal from you.

Anonymous – The Autistic Collective.
“I am – like all hackers – a little bit autistic.” –Julian Assange
“The thrill [of hacking] was exorbitant. It was like the first time you beat an adult at chess. I’m amazed when I run into people who don’t understand the pleasure in this.” –Assange
“I was beginning to get the hacker’s disease: no sleep, bottomless curiosity, single-mindedness, and an obsession with precision…But in my mid- to late teens I could barely focus on anything that didn’t seem to me like a major breakthrough.” –Assange
“[Hacking] was certainly addictive. You’d dive down into a computer system…You’d take it over…It was like being able to teleport yourself…in order to walk around and take charge [of the computer]…It sounds ridiculous, but we found our own keyholes into the workings of [computer systems]…until we found we would be able to control their whole system.”
WikilLeaks is an admirable enterprise if its purpose is to expose corruption and hypocrisy. But Julian Assange’s unauthorised autobiography presents a rather a different picture. He’s a hacking addict, turned on by hacking, unable to live without it. So, he tries to turn his criminal desire to interfere with the work of others – anybody about whom he becomes curious – into some noble undertaking when in fact he’s just a self-serving addict, feeding his obsession and intoxicated by the power he feels when he has broken into a system. He’s driven by the LULZ.
Anonymous is full of criminal hackers who like to think they are motivated by a cause when in truth they are simply autistics who gets their few pleasures in life from cracking computer codes.
ANONYMOUS = HACKING = AUTISM = DEFICIENCY OF EMPATHY
We have observed with utter astonishment the endless attempts, day after day, by a growing group of Anonymous autistics to wreck our system. “Resistance is futile,” they say, quoting the inhuman Borg collective of Star Trek, with whom they closely identify. What is truly futile is how these autistics spend their lives. It’s actually rather disturbing that the computer age has given so much power to a group of people lacking in basic humanity. These people should be exposed to as much art, literature, poetry and creative writing as possible to counteract their medical condition. The worst possible outcome for them is to allow them to indulge their hacking addiction; it’s the equivalent of putting alcoholics in a bar or junkies in a shooting gallery.
******
UPDATE: We are now tracking numerous members of Anonymous attacking this site. There are several more from Spain, and some from Portugal and Mexico. Welcome to the party, you fascist retards. Why don’t you spend the rest of your lives here? Of course, none of them can read English; not that they concern themselves with such niceties as understanding what a site says before attacking it. These LULZ freaks just do it for the sake of doing it. Their autistic condition means they are incapable of letting go and trying to do something creative with their lives. “ANONYMOUS” – THE HACKERS’ COLLECTIVE FOR SUBNORMAL FASCIST GEEKS AND TROLLS. Several hackers’ forums are now discussing how best to “get us”. Of course, you would never discover these dunces discussing art, philosophy, mathematics or politics. This is proving a fascinating insight into the sad and depressing world of computer autistics. Their lives are so empty that they do nothing other than probe websites for weaknesses. Hey, morons, there’s a whole universe out there. You don’t have to stay in your bedrooms 24/7, masturbating, video gaming and hacking.

Trolls.
These sad people feed on negative energy. They spend their lives trying to wreck, sabotage, destroy, flame, annoy, and generally ruin everything they come across. Of course, their actions are a reflection of the terrible mental problems from which they suffer. Imagine going through life dedicated to upsetting others, irritating them and trying to stop them. What kind of life is that?
Trolls have nothing positive to offer. They can play no part in a constructive, creative world. Trolling equates to a kind of mental illness. It’s severely anti-social and ought to be turned into a form of conduct as wrong and illegal as drink driving. A fierce debate between committed opponents is always welcome; a deliberately malicious, nasty and underhand attack designed to offend and wreck must always be condemned.

Anonymous – the Good Guys?
Someone wrote to us in defense of Anonymous, saying that we had a lot in common with them.
Our Reply: We agree with almost all of your comments on Anonymous, and indeed we used to be supportive of Anonymous. However, the infantile Anonymous attack we suffered has radically changed our view of this organisation. Anonymous is closely associated with another group called LulzSec and Wikipedia says: “LulzSec draws its name from the neologism ‘Lulz’, (from LOLs – ‘laughing out loud’), which often signifies laughter at the victim of a prank.’
In our opinion, Anonymous, no matter its serious intent in some quarters, has identified itself with pranks, porn, trolling and sabotage just for the sake of it. Many people join Anonymous and LulzSec not because they have any political views but because it gives them some sort of sanction to indulge what they want to do – which is to have a laugh at other people’s expense. It’s clear that Julian Assange was much less interested in his political opposition to the Pentagon than he was in the sheer thrill it gave him to break through their security. Just as serial killers take a “trophy” from their victims, the information that WikilLeaks get from hacking is their trophy. But they would attack anyone who presented any hacking challenge, regardless of political stance.
Anonymous is increasingly a kind of street theatre on the one hand and cyber “trick or treating” on the other. It’s simply not serious and is rapidly becoming counter-productive. Unless it has a clear manifesto and political aims, and actively condemns the LULZ mentality that attracts so many of its members, we are more than happy to characterize it as we have done.
The world has to start getting serious. Whom will the elite most fear? – infantile hackers and pranksters in masks or a meritocratic political party threatening to remove all of their money and power from them in order to redistribute it amongst the people and to invest in the highest quality education for ordinary boys and girls from non-privileged backgrounds?
Serious members of Anonymous should come across to Meritocracy and ditch lulz and hacking. We want to present them with a clear choice. Moreover, the stance we have articulated makes it clear that we will accept no trolls, hackers or pornographers acting in our name.
Building a movement is based on two things: recruiting the right kind of people, and excluding the wrong type who damage what you are trying to accomplish. Anonymous has done nothing at all to distance itself from the trolls who act in its name. Our attack on Anonymous now gives them a dialectical opportunity to up their game and repudiate the trolls. Sadly, we don’t think they’re capable of it.
