Dacia Iluministă

There’s an extremely simple way to tell if people are free. If they are obliged to carry out some act before they can devote their attentions to what they really want to do then they are slaves. So, the Egyptians held a mass protest to demand President Mubarak’s departure after “Friday prayers”. Prayers? WTF?! Why the hell are revolutionaries engaging in the most conventional and submissive act conceivable? Would true revolutionaries stop for prayers? What’s important? – getting rid of the dictator or getting on your knees to worship that other dictator, Allah?

Isn’t a defining characteristic of dictators that they expect everyone to bow before them? Isn’t Allah the cosmic dictator? Why get rid of a mortal dictator merely to subjugate yourself to an immortal one? Freedom 101 – free people do not worship any kind of dictator, terrestrial or cosmic. Free people do not bow, kneel and grovel. They are free NOT to pray on Friday. They are free NOT to pray five times a day. They are free NOT to memorise the Koran. They are free NOT to be Muslims. But none of that is true of Muslims. They are intrinsically unfree.

Women aren’t allowed to pray with the men, and they all have to wear the hijab. Think of the irony of a revolutionary freedom movement that can’t tolerate women praying in the company of men. Not much of a revolution then. Not much idea of freedom. Almost the antithesis in fact. The Egyptian Revolution had no leadership. The people had no clear idea of what they wanted. They knew what they were against, but not what they were for. Nature abhors a vacuum. The best organised group will take over in due course and, in Egypt, that means the Muslim Brotherhood.

The young people of the Islamic countries are trapped in a nightmare. They are the Facebook, Twitter generation, up to speed with modernity, yet they are still, at core, brainwashed Muslims, and Islam is the total opposite of modernity. They can never be free until they are free of Islam. Part of the Egyptian people’s rage against President Mubarak was a subconscious projection of their rage against Islam, but they are never allowed to express that rage. It’s the ultimate taboo, hence it exercises the greatest shadow effect. If one wanted to create a perfect brainwashing virus, infecting generation after generation in perpetuity, it couldn’t prove any more successful than Islam. Mohammed was not a prophet, he was a psychologist, a supreme mind controller. He grasped how best to manipulate badly educated, primitive, superstitious, fearful people.

No rational person could ever be a Muslim. That religion is the antithesis of reason. It asserts that a 1400-year-old book is the infallible Word of God, containing the answers to everything. If you have ever actually read it then you will understand that the only thing it contains is the key to brainwashing credulous, non-thinking people.

The key turns out to be remarkably simple. You start with a supernatural encounter – Mohammed, an illiterate tribesman, meets the Angel Gabriel in a cave and has the Koran dictated to him. This gets the mind into a suitably superstitious, credulous mode – and then it is bombarded by an unrelenting message of divine terrorism.

The Koran simply teaches that you will suffer eternal hellfire if you disobey its rules, and enjoy eternal paradise if you do everything it says. It demands that you wage jihad against infidels, kill apostates, kill blasphemers, kill anyone who breaks the rules. You must pray five times a day (thus ensuring that Islam is on your mind all day, every day). You must attend Friday prayers. You must memorise the Koran in Arabic (an immense undertaking that will take you many years, again forcing you to wallow in Islam). You must reject anyone who claims that there can be any new prophets. You must reject anyone who says that the Koran is not Allah’s final and infallible word. You must reject anything that contradicts the Koran i.e. the whole of Enlightenment and scientific thinking. (There is no science, philosophy or mathematics in the Koran – hardly surprising since Mohammed was a man of zero education.) You must eat halal food only. You must wear certain clothes (and women must dress “modestly”, preferably in a burqa). You must avoid drugs and alcohol. You mustn’t have casual sex.

The purpose of Islam is to lock you into its dictatorial vision of the world where your only task is to submit to the will of Allah. There is nothing else to it. It has contempt for science, mathematics and philosophy. The Koran is the Book of Stupidity and one only needs to take a cursory glance at Islamic nations to see that none of them is in any way associated with any serious intellectual, artistic or cultural endeavour. Muslims hate music, hate art, hate science, hate philosophy, hate mathematics, hate literature. None of these played any part in the life of Mohammed (just as they didn’t in the lives of Jesus Christ and Moses – Abrahamic prophets are invariably astoundingly badly educated, and their followers have eagerly emulated them in this regard. Did you know that Jesus Christ was illiterate?! The reason he didn’t commit a single word to paper was that he couldn’t.)

If you sign up to a stupid religion you become stupid. That’s the law of life. Islam has proved itself over and over again to be the enemy of intelligence. Intelligence has no function if your only purpose is to obey. Only superstitious primitives, incapable of rational thought, are attracted to Islam. Did you know that Muslims do not believe in chance? Everything is literally the will of God. When Muslim students learn probability theory at school, they are told they are only doing it in order to pass exams, and that the theory is actually complete nonsense. According to Islam, if a coin is tossed 100 times and produces 50 heads and fifty tails, it has nothing to do with probability, but because God wills it. And you wonder why Muslims don’t win any Nobel Prizes and why they burn books?

The Revolution in Egypt, conducted as it was within the framework of totalitarian Islam, failed to inspire. Egypt, many centuries before Islam, was one of the intellectual and cultural powerhouses of the world. The real Egyptian revolution will be the one that casts aside Islam. Tyranny is embedded in Islam, hence any revolution by an Islamic people is never a revolution about freedom. Look at what happened in Iran. A monstrous Shah was overthrown and replaced with what? – by an even more monstrous Ayatollah who proceeded to drag Iran back to the dark ages. Isn’t something similar going to happen in Egypt in due course? The Muslim Brotherhood is ready to pounce. One thing’s for certain – Egypt won’t be any freer after the revolution than it was before because it’s still in the jail of Islam.

Modern Jihadism was invented in Egypt – by a man called Sayeed Qutb. The 9/11 conspiracy was led by the Egyptian maniac Mohammed Atta. Don’t expect wonderful things from modern Egypt. In Pakistan, a 17-yr-old schoolboy may be put to death for blasphemy because he allegedly made an insulting comment about the Prophet Mohammed in an exam paper. Islam and freedom never go together. They are the antithesis of each other. The Egyptian Revolution is going nowhere. Iran congratulated the Egyptian “Islamic Liberation Movement”. That should set the alarm bells ringing for everyone else.

Never forget that, originally, Islam was simply Judaism transported in a South-easterly direction to the Arabian deserts by a pagan tribesman (Mohammed) who was well acquainted with the many Jews living in Arabia at the time. Whereas Christianity is Judaism combined with pagan Greek philosophy (making Christianity Judaism’s bastard son), Islam is Judaism’s legitimate son. Islam traces itself back to the founder of Judaism: Abraham. While the Jews proceeded from the line of Abraham’s son Isaac, the Muslims came from Abraham’s other son, Ishmael, Isaac’s half brother. The two religions have always been half-brothers.

Mohammed was aware that there was a huge gap in the Jewish Torah – what became of Ishmael and his descendants. All he had to do was say that the Abrahamic Ishmaelites were the Arabs, that they were destined to be the most loyal followers of Yahweh (Allah), and that he (Mohammed) was chosen to be the prophet who would announce the new Torah – the Koran – to the Arabs, and lead them away from the pagan gods. He saw himself as the Arab Moses, the final prophet of Yahweh/Allah. Hence Muslims are just Arab Jews, singing the same song but from the perspective of Ishmael rather than Isaac.

Imagine a world of 1.3 billion Orthodox Jews like those bearded fanatics in their silly hats and dark suits who bob backwards and forwards in front of the Wailing Wall. Islam is what that horrific vision has morphed into, and it isn’t any improvement. Christians are Greek Jews and Muslims are Arab Jews, but they’re all still Jews. In truth, half the world is Jewish, worshipping Yahweh (Satan). Western monotheism is simply Judaism. Islam is a puritanical religion, totally intolerant of dissent. You have to question the mentality of those who, in the 21st century, are willing to be part of this religion. How can anyone equate Islam with freedom?

Every epoch of history has seen a dialectical expansion in human freedom, but Muslims represent one area where the dialectic has never worked. Muslims are no freer now than they were when Mohammed first invented his Arab version of Judaism.

The Magic of Revolution:

“…the ‘strange God’ of commerce perched himself side by side with the old divinities of Europe on the altar; and one fine day threw them all overboard with a shove and a kick. It proclaimed the making of profit as the ultimate and sole purpose of mankind.” –Marx

Revolution can transform you.
Revolution can transfigure you.
Revolution can redeem you.

Make no mistake, you seekers of a better life, revolution is your salvation. Revolution changes everything. It smashes the power of the Old World Order. In revolution, a new world is born. New opportunities, new adventures, and new possibilities abound. Most revolutions are caused by hunger, unemployment, poverty, degradation, deprivation, lack of freedom. Eventually, these overwhelm fear and generate action. But revolution is also invariably accompanied by something else: lack of respect for the ruling order.

When the masters are seen to be inept, to not know what they are doing, then they are lost. And are we not now at that stage in the West? Who any longer has respect for the Old World Order who arrogantly labelled themselves geniuses and masters of the universe yet brought the world to the edge of ruin? They themselves are now suffering a profound crisis of confidence. The financial meltdown revealed that they didn’t understand their own system despite their extravagant claims to wisdom deserving of supernaturally large rewards, hence they are now incredibly vulnerable to those with a superior understanding.

The world is changing. The age of revolutions is at hand. Towards the end of the 19th century, Nietzsche, the apocalyptic prophet of the modern age, wrote: “What I relate is the history of the next two centuries. I describe what is coming, what can no longer come differently: the advent of nihilism. This history can be related even now; for necessity itself is at work here. The future speaks even now in a hundred signs, this destiny announces itself everywhere; for this music of the future all ears are cocked even now. For some time now, our whole European culture has been moving as toward a catastrophe, with a tortured tension that is growing from decade to decade: restlessly, violently, headlong, like a river that wants to reach the end, that no longer reflects, that is afraid to reflect…For why has the advent of nihilism become necessary? Because the values we have had hitherto thus draw their final consequence; because nihilism represents the ultimate logical conclusion of our great values and ideals – because we must experience nihilism before we can find out what value these ‘values’ really had. We require, sometime, new values.”

Exactly as Nietzsche predicted, the twentieth century saw Europe – the epicentre of two world wars in quick succession – plunged into catastrophe. Since the end of WWII, we have lived in a phoney and fake age where all values have been eroded. We are immersed in nihilism. Scientific materialists, the high priests of modernity, are nihilistic atheists. We have a consumer culture that worships objects and celebrities, the brass idols of the creed of capitalism. Abrahamism has split in two. Most Abrahamists are living hypocritical lives of comfort and selfishness divorced from spiritual values, while a minority have tried to replace their fading faith with fanaticism. And the contemporary religion of social networking – the cyber fakery of Facebook and Twitter – is devoid of any intellectual and spiritual content. Deep down, most people believe in nothing.

The world has never been more nihilistic, and thus it is poised on the edge of a precipice. If new values do not emerge, madness, mayhem and murder on the scale of Armageddon will descend upon the human race. The two world wars of the last century will be as nothing. Wars will erupt over global warming, overpopulation, religious divisions, lack of food, lack of water, pollution, massive disparities in wealth, conflicts of economic interests between West and East, even young versus old as an ageing population consumes more and more resources, thus denying them to the young. It’s estimated that the world’s population could be at least 9 billion by 2050. The problems we have now will be enormously magnified. Revalue all values – before it’s too late. The window of opportunity is narrow. Unless we build a meritocratic world that unleashes the genius and creativity of human beings to solve the immense problems facing us, we will be dead and buried before the end of this century. RIP humanity.

“…money-worship has been elevated into a religion. Perhaps it is the only real religion – the only real felt religion – that is left to us. Money is what God used to be.” –Orwell

The Fake Revolution:

It’s depressing to say it, but the Egyptian Revolution was fake. It was like a Hollywood staging of a revolution. It looked like the real thing, but ultimately was nothing but desperate people blowing off steam
and posing for the cameras.

Revolutionaries who chant Allahu Akbar? It’s a contradiction in terms. It would be like a revolution in Britain being accompanied by cries of, “God save the Queen!” rather than “Down with the tyrant!” These weren’t revolutionaries. They were the forces on the one hand of reactionary Islam (the Muslim Brotherhood) desiring to overthrow a quasi-secular autocrat, and on the other of young, Western influenced Muslims seeking the freedom that they imagine exists in the West (yeah, that’ll be right), but still in an Islamic context (a contradiction in terms). They had nothing in common with the French revolutionaries, history’s truest revolutionaries, who wanted to change everything, with religion as one of their primary targets.

All authentic revolutionaries have always been committed to an overthrow of the old religious structures. Without such an aim, it’s not a revolution. 18 months after the overthrow of the Shah of Iran, the Iranian “Revolution” ended up producing the most horrific, reactionary Islamic fundamentalist theocracy imaginable. There is no reason to suspect that things won’t turn out the same way in Egypt. The Egyptian people cannot be free until they revolt against Islam, and there is no sign of that. The French revolutionaries regarded Catholicism – the national religion – as the friend and ally of the establishment, and of reactionary, counter-revolutionary forces. Religion is ALWAYS the friend of tyrants, hence you cannot have a true revolution without the destruction of the existing religious order.

In psychology, “displacement” occurs when the primary target of your anger is too powerful to confront, so you displace your rage to someone else, an easier target, and take it out on them instead. In Egypt, the real issue was not about Mubarak but about Islam. It is not Mubarak and his ilk who stand most in the way of freedom, but Islam. Islam is too powerful to take on, so the people displaced their frustration onto Mubarak. But it makes no difference. The Egyptians will never be free until they are free of their unenlightened Islamic religion.

Remember the “Green” Revolution in Iran? Same deal. The young people were really trying to overthrow Islam. It was the Iranians, not the Tunisians, who really started the latest phase in Islamic Revolution. What none of them have realised yet is that it’s their religion they are rebelling against. Islam is the equivalent of the Berlin Wall – it must fall before the people can be free. The dialectic is in motion. Sooner or later, Islam itself will be the target and the long-awaited Reformation of Islam can start. The world will enjoy a second Enlightenment. Everything can change. The tipping point is not too far away now. But one thing must be said in favour of the Muslims. They proved themselves far better at using Facebook and Twitter for political purposes, for getting themselves organised to take on the authorities. Isn’t that what Westerners should be using social networking for too rather than posting endless pictures of drunk people at parties?
__________

Failed Revolution:

The military are now in charge of Egypt. Elections are promised. Big deal. Revolutions are not what they used to be. The generals are still the same. The rich are still the rich and the poor the poor. The imams are still preaching as they always did.

The people actually had no firm objective other than the removal of the President, but when he refused to go they had no Plan B. So they just stood around, hoping. Luckily, they stood around long enough and at last he went. But couldn’t they have achieved so much more having mobilised millions of people? These chances come along so rarely. They must be put to maximum advantage. If revolutionaries have no plan, and the counter-revolutionaries are equally devoid of a plan, a standoff ensues, as happened in Egypt. Mubarak blinked first because he wasn’t getting positive signals from his military. Muslims, being submissives waiting for the voice of Mohammed, the Archangel Gabriel, the Koran or Allah to direct them, are prone to ineffectual action in the absence of strong leadership. Some of the Egyptian protestors actually said it was a good thing that they had no leaders, but a Revolution without leaders and a plan is just a big crowd milling around aimlessly, as Egypt proved.

Revolution 101 – You must have a clear plan, with clear objectives, and strong leaders ready to take over right now from the existing ruling regime, not in elections six months down the line. In France in 1789, the Jacobin revolutionaries already had a complete blueprint for a New World Order – Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Social Contract. They detested monarchy and wished to abolish it permanently. They wished to replace Christianity with the new undogmatic religion of the “Supreme Being”. They wanted to be rid of the aristocracy. They wanted to express the General Will of the people. They were talented, smart, energetic and eager to take over from the ancien régime.

If the Egyptians were like the French of 1789, they would have seized the Egyptian parliament and installed their own government, they would have attacked the President’s residence, and they would have burned down the police headquarters and the main jail. The Egyptians did none of these things, hence the Revolution faded out with a whimper. No matter that the Egyptian Revolution isn’t yet the real thing. The people who took to the streets to oppose Mubarak must still be congratulated. Hundreds gave their lives. They have put the West to shame. And they have shown that they have tremendous potential as a people. If they can overthrow Islam, they will be capable of the highest achievements. In the West, when Lehman Brothers collapsed, capitalism was ripe for overthrow, but no one acted because no one had a plan, so the ruling order was able to go on as before. That situation must never happen again.

A new government-in-waiting needs to be ready to step in. Does such a government exist? No? Well let’s create it.
__________

Dialectical Government:

One of the greatest contributions to political philosophy came from Jean-Jacques Rousseau who contrasted the “particular will” with the “General Will”. The latter promotes the best interests of the whole community, while the former allows a particular group to prosper at the expense of everyone else.

A right-wing Republican government in America will invariably cut taxes (to favour the rich), reduce regulation (to favour rich corporations), reduce public spending and the size of the state (to penalise the poor and deprived) i.e. it governs in the interests of its Republican constituency, not in the interests of all. How could anyone argue that it is governing in the interests of all when it is so nakedly executing an ideological agenda that helps the rich and attacks the poor? It is transparently government according to the particular will, not the General Will.

Gil Scott-Heron famously said, “Mandate my ass.” He’s absolutely right. No democratic government ever has a mandate. Winning an election is just that – an election victory. It’s not a mandate. Those who voted for the opposition parties aren’t suddenly supportive of the winning party just because it won. They are as opposed to it as they always were. All governments are elective dictatorships. In the UK, it is typical for the governing Party to enjoy the support of only about a fifth to a quarter of the total electorate. Up to 80% didn’t vote for them yet have to endure their “mandate”!

Political parties of any description are vehicles of particular wills, not the General Will. The central political question lies in whether there is anything that can truly reflect the General Will in a systematic and transparent way, to the satisfaction of all. The answer is an extraordinary one. Conventional politicians are by definition enemies of the General Will since they care only for sectional interests and satisfying their supporters and sponsors. Hence conventional politicians can play no part in the New Politics. Political parties must be abolished!

But we are not advocating any kind of anarchy in the new world. Rather, we will turn to the most successful endeavour in human history to show us the way forward – science.

While politics has lurched from one crisis and disaster to the next, science has produced astounding triumph after astounding triumph. Science, not politics, has brought us the advanced world we live in (materially if not spiritually!). Only the biggest fools on earth would say that the political way of doing things has proved beneficial to humanity.

We seek to replace politics with political science i.e. a new politics that takes its lessons and methods from science, thus emulating the brightest jewel in the human crown.

Science is characterised by smart people putting forward well-considered hypotheses, which are then tested by other smart people.

Data and evidence are collected to see how well they correspond to the hypothesis. The hypothesis can be refined in the light of the data, and new experiments performed. If the hypothesis is unproductive, it is discarded while if it prospers then eventually it attains the status of “theory”. A scientific theory is not something speculative and vague as many non-scientists erroneously believe. It has been successfully tested innumerable times and it takes something remarkable to overthrow it. Newtonian physics, which had been revered for centuries, was replaced by Einsteinian physics, but it was nevertheless Newtonian physics that was used to land man on the moon i.e. that’s how good and reliable it was. Einstein’s refinements to Newton’s laws only become significant in extreme situations that we don’t often encounter. Even now, we refer to Newton’s Laws of motion.

Creationists say that Darwinian Evolution is just a “theory” – but it is an extremely well tested one with an enormous evidence base. Darwinism, like Newtonian physics, will eventually be replaced, but it will still retain a great deal of validity. What’s for sure is that Abrahamic Creationism is a mad hypothesis without any evidence at all to support it and an immense amount to refute it. No scientist would ever consider Creationism a theory – it’s just a story. It’s Mythos, not Logos. Much of the trouble with the world is that “Mythos-thinkers” believe they can challenge “Logos-thinkers”. The two types of thinking have nothing in common. Scientists (Logos-thinkers) have nothing but contempt for the suggestion that the world was created in six days by “God”, the only “proof” being an ancient book of the Jews, which says so. “Revelation” isn’t fact or evidence. It’s not theory. It can’t be tested. It can be neither verified nor falsified. It’s pure Mythos. Can anyone “prove” that gods didn’t once live at the summit of Mount Olympus? There are innumerable stories and none of them can ever form the basis of any kind of science.

Creationists are Mythos-thinkers who don’t understand science. Their attacks on Darwinism amount to little more than some staring-eyed person jabbing his finger at the Book of Genesis and saying, “Hey man, can’t you read? It says right here that God made the world in six days. End of story.” Stories – Mythos – should be reserved for entertainment purposes, not for trying to understand mathematical, scientific and philosophical reality. Politicians, like religious leaders, are always spinning yarns to “sell” their message to us. We don’t need their Mythos view of the world.

There are no political parties in science. Disputes are resolved via experiments, hard data, mathematics and logic, not via speeches, rhetoric, stories and ideology. Scientists can’t vote down other scientists and dogmatically push through their agenda regardless of the evidence. No scientists have to kiss babies and shake the hands of the “common man” to get elected. They have no party position that they have to defend. In the New Politics, clever people will propose hypotheses and these will be tested and the evidence collected. The evidence will decide between rival hypotheses, not some partisan debate in Congress full of hot air and fanatical ideology. Evidence, not rhetoric, is the only valid means of testing rival policies and ideas in order to identify the most successful ones.

As an example of this process, consider this message “V” sent us.

“I have been reading this website and the affiliated website Armageddon Conspiracy for about a year and a half or more. I have really appreciated reading your writings, and enjoyed reading up on all of the concepts that you look at and address in each article. I can relate with much of what you are saying most of the time, but in regards to your idea about separating the different Meyers-Briggs types, I totally disagree. Instead of arbitrarily separating types that are already separated, I think what needs to happen is integrating the types through understanding, because Meyers-Briggs type are not static – and people can change. In different stages of my own life, I have exhibited a number of different characteristics, although I am fundamentally an introverted intuitive type. If I did not have the opportunity to try out those different aspects of myself, I would probably not function as well as I do now.

If I could set up an ideal school system, I would first teach extensively on the positive and negative traits of each of the different types. Then I would have everyone take the test.

Afterwards I would pair extroverts with introverts as an experiment. I would have them ask each other questions about why they do things the way they do, and how they would respond to hypothetical situations. Then I would have each child write a paper on how they could integrate the positive aspects of the ‘other’ type. If thinking introverts remain wallflowers their whole lives, how can they speak up and change the world if they are afraid to talk – or have not integrated positive extroverted speaking abilities? How can sensing extroverts learn to listen to themselves if they do not perceive others with that ability? The worst thing you could do is separate the different types, because they will still have to deal with each other. By avoiding the conflict altogether they will grow stagnant, and will not learn. Learning and growth often accompany strife and difference. All of the different Meyers-Briggs types should represent aspects of ourselves – if we are healthy fully integrated beings, we need to be able to don whatever mask for any situation that comes our way.

I am currently writing a children’s story about two children – one is an introverted thinker, and one is an extroverted sensing type – and throughout the story I write about why they are afraid of each other, and how they learn to integrate their differences to become a think tank extraordinaire. This has to do with the concept of the Hegelian Synthesis which you wrote about on the Armageddon Conspiracy site. Shouldn’t we create a synthesis of the different types instead of working with the extreme introverts and extroverts? Otherwise there will always be conflict, that’s why I think it’s so important to write you on this subject, because I really like where the Movement could go – but I feel like this concept that you mention in the article is dogmatic and limiting.

We replied.

Thanks for your message. We’re sure many people would entirely agree with you, so we’d like to quote your message in a future article. It gives us an excellent opportunity to discuss the dialectic in action. Thanks again. And good luck with the children’s story – it sounds great!

(The main difference between our position and V’s is that we think personality type is much more static than she asserts, and that different types do not and cannot happily rub along together. If personality type were fluid and relatively easy to change, we would have no hesitation in endorsing her stance. Indeed, her aim of producing human beings who have integrated all of the different Myers-Briggs personalities and are thus able to cope in any situation is the best possible outcome. If it can be achieved then we should certainly strive to achieve it. However, if we are hard-wired to a certain personality type i.e. our brain allows us to operate only in certain ways, then we must confront the world as we find it and not as we would wish it to be. If thinking and feeling are mutually exclusive; if you cannot be both intuitive and sensing, then V’s ambition of multi-functional human beings cannot be realised no matter how desirable it is. Jung’s project of individuation – becoming the master of every psychic component – is the same as V’s. It may be the case that it cannot be fully accomplished, but can only be approximated i.e. an intuitive person will never fully enter into the world of sensations but can train himself to be more receptive to sensations than he would have been otherwise: he can glimpse and interact with the “other” world of sensations without ever truly venturing into its heart. He will always be a visitor, never at home.)

If we were a political party with a majority, we would rubbish V’s suggestions and vote her down (because that’s what political parties do). Her ideas, no matter how potentially true and invaluable, would be dead in the water. What a disaster if it turned out she was right!

But the dialectic does not operate in that calamitous way, potentially ignoring and discarding great ideas because they do not fit the particular will of the dominant political party. There’s no need for us to have any acrimonious argument with V. We have proposed a thesis and V has proposed an antithesis – it’s the dialectic in full flow. The way forward would be to arrange tests of both hypotheses and see how they match up to the evidence subsequently collected. Maybe one hypothesis is right and the other wrong; maybe both are partially right and partially wrong, or maybe both are completely wrong. We’ll know for sure thanks to hard data, not cynical speechifying in Congress unsupported by any evidence.

Depending on the evidence, it may be possible to combine the rival hypotheses in a synthesis, which will then act as a new thesis. Perhaps both hypotheses will have to be discarded and new ones tried. The key point is that we now have a scientific process and method that everyone can see is completely fair and allows rival ideas to be heard and respected.

Every citizen, like V, will be able to propose hypotheses and have them treated with the utmost consideration. Clever citizens will be direct contributors to the new dialectical politics, not passive recipients of policies passed in Congress after “hot air” debates. We don’t need any politicians or any debates. We just need hypotheses, experiments and evidence.

Take drugs policy as an example. There are fifty States in the USA: fifty opportunities to try different approaches to drugs. You can have zero tolerance approaches, decriminalisation, complete legalisation etc in the different States. At the end of a ten-year period, the nation simply has to look at all the different approaches that were trialled in the different States and see which one worked the best. That then becomes “best practice” to be used throughout the country. See how easy it is. No emotive debates are required, no moralising, no religious opinions. All that is needed is the experimental data.

Evidence replaces rhetoric. Science replaces politics. All debates are resolved evidentially. All disputes are turned into rival scientific hypotheses and put to the test. Is that not the only sensible and rational means to resolve conflicts? All the hot air and ideology gets kicked out and is replaced by cool, calm science. No politicians are necessary, thank you very much: no pressure groups, no lobbyists, no hysterical media reporting. This new system removes all of the levers of power from the OWO and from the religious and political fanatics. Their irrational beliefs and propaganda can now be relentlessly challenged and tested.

The whole world will have a transparent, systematic method to resolve all issues. All hypotheses will be available on the internet, as will all the experimental procedures to test them, and all of the results. The world will become a global laboratory dedicated to perfecting human life and society. Plato said, “I have created the perfect republic, but where are the perfect people?” The dialectical method will supply Plato with his perfect people.

The ingredient that was missing all along from politics was none other a neutral method with which all parties could agree – a dialectical, scientific method.

The Dialectical Revolution:

We are supremely fortunate. We are living in the era of dialectical completion.

1945 – the end of fascism.
1989 – the end of totalitarian Soviet Communism.
2008 – the beginning of the end for Western Capitalism.
2011 – the end of Arab dictators.

The pace is increasing, and the internet is acting as an incredible accelerator.

The hardest dictators to topple are the unseen ones of capitalism: the super rich Zionists and Masons. They operate behind the scenes, pulling the strings of their “democratic” politician puppets. The credit crunch has done enormous damage to their propaganda that they know what they’re doing economically. Since that was their supreme claim to legitimacy, they no longer have any credibility. They are like the Emperor with his new clothes – stark naked and about to be ridiculed even by children.

After they fall, humanity’s dialectical journey only has one more hurdle to overcome – the bicameral, ancient slave religions of Devil worship. They will be replaced by new, 21st century religions of light, reason, freedom and consciousness.

The nightmare is nearing its end.
The dawn of a glorious new humanity is coming.
And we will be there to see it.

Plato’s Republic of Laws:

Plato, one of the greatest geniuses of all time, advocated that the ruling class of society should live in a strictly communist manner. None of the rulers should own any private property; they should live in common housing and share communal meals.

Whatever anyone thinks of Plato’s system, no one could accuse him of supporting a ruling class in it for their own material gain. Imagine the leaders of the present world being uniformly poor, and doing their work purely for the public good. Isn’t that real “public service”?

Plato was preoccupied with how to create a truly enlightened society. In his ideal city-state, everyone obeys the General Will and works for the common good, hence the state is a unity, free of faction fighting. All the land and property are distributed fairly and any private wealth closely regulated.

In The Laws, Plato’s last great political work, he argued that no citizen should be allowed to possess any gold or silver. Money should be based on iron. No citizen should be allowed to become any richer than four times the poorest citizen; any extra is automatically placed in a common people’s fund – the Commonwealth. No citizen is permitted to fall below a basic level of wealth set by the State.

(In relation to Plato’s suggestion that the richest people in society should be no more than four times richer than the poorest, this is now deemed too restrictive. A more appropriate figure would be anything from a factor of ten to a hundred to ensure that hard workers and creatives have a clear incentive. This figure could be continually adjusted until the optimal value is found. Remember, meritocracy is not communism – it is anti-privilege (excessive wealth used as a weapon), not anti-wealth per se. Meritocracy absolutely wants to reward high achievers for hard work, talent and creativity.)

Such laws, Plato argued, provided unshakeable stability to the ideal city-state. Greed is effectively banned. No one can become excessively rich. Plato said, “Great money-making is impossible… The hypothesis that underlies our laws aims at making the people as happy and friendly to one another as possible.”

Isn’t that the most laudable of aims, and isn’t massive inequality of wealth, power and status the main driver of dissatisfaction in our world? People become alienated from their own lives when they start obsessively comparing their relative poverty with the extravagant wealth of the super rich. They are always miserable because they are always dreaming of a life they will never have. In Plato’s city-state, distinctions between citizens are never allowed to become too great, certainly never wide enough to cause envy, discontent and conflict. Men and women are treated equally (a revolutionary concept in the time of Plato, and one that was borrowed directly from the Pythagorean Illuminati).

Plato sought a rational, just and ordered society, with virtue as its central goal. In his ideal city-state, there is no need for rival political parties. An experienced group of 37 Guardians of the Laws supervise the state. The citizens gather in a General Assembly to vote on important issues. An elected council of 360 independent citizens carry out the day-to-day running of the state and serve one-year terms. There are also judges and juries to administer the law, priests and priestesses to perform the religious functions, and generals and admirals to defend the state. Market trade is closely regulated, as are all aspects of City life.

Critics have described it as a totalitarian state, but they are entirely wrong: it’s a meritocratic state, with all aspects of city life guarded against abuse. There would have been no Credit Crunch, no excessive greed, no privileged elite, no ingrained inequality, in Plato’s utopia.

Plato’s city-state is to be a single entity – like a person – striving for its own good. In this state there are no “rival loyalties” – no political parties representing sectional interests, no factions putting their particular wills over the General Will. Every citizen’s loyalty is to the state and the common good. As Plato said so accurately, “True political art must care not for the private but the common – for the common binds cities together, while the private tears them apart.”

We live in a world of private interests. Everyone is out for themselves. The bankers – those responsible for the financial health of the economy – are typically the greediest people in the world, devoted to enriching themselves. What sane state would ever allow its banks to be in private hands and to be controlled by people who want to help themselves to as much money as they can get away with? It is the bankers and their confederates who would doubtless accuse Plato of totalitarianism – because they would be the biggest losers in a Platonic state.

Plato wrote, “Whoever leaves private things unregulated by law and believes the people will be willing to live with the common and public things regulated by laws – is incorrect in his thinking.”

This is a crucial statement. Any government that allows the private domain to be ignored in a society of great disparities in wealth is essentially supporting a society of privilege where private individuals are allowed to rig the system in their own favour. Thus an unregulated private domain invariably leads to the richest private individuals controlling the state. This is the basis of the Old World Order. The biggest enemy of privilege is meritocratic regulation that prevents privileged individuals from using their positions of privilege to exploit and manipulate the public space. When the state neglects to act in the private sphere, when it refuses to try to mould the state for the better and chooses to remain inactive, this is called “negative liberty”. It is negative rather than positive because it does not seek to promote any agenda: for good or ill, citizens are left to their own devices in the private sphere. The rich are allowed to get richer, parents to brainwash their children, bigotry and intolerance to go unchecked as long as they stay in the home etc. Negative liberty is not FOR anything; rather is about being free FROM positive liberty. Right wingers are advocates of negative liberty and the “small state”.

“Positive liberty” is where the state seeks to actively implement a vision of freedom, hence directly intervenes in the private sphere. Left wingers are proponents of positive liberty and the big state. The Illuminati’s vision of creating a “Community of Gods” is the quintessence of positive liberty. Capitalist democracy and consumerism are the supreme expression of negative liberty. You are free to shop till you drop and the state will never put any obstacles in your way. The state couldn’t care less what consumerism does to people’s minds, whether it turns them into zombies, droids and drones. The Profit Principle is all that matters. The supporters of private wealth and privilege are always those who demand that the state stay out of the private sphere. The state does indeed have no right to interfere with any private matters that have no consequences for the public sphere, but it has every right to interfere with those that do. It’s failing in its duties if it does not. Plato was buried in the Academy that he founded. Diogenes Laertius wrote, “Phoebus Apollo gave to mortals Asclepius and Plato, the one to save their bodies, the other to save their souls.”

Plato’s Republic of Laws represents a suitable dialectical starting point for a meritocratic society. America was designed not as a democracy but as a Republic of Laws. The only democratic component involves the elections of the President and Congress. America has failed to be the beacon of liberty that it was intended to be for one very simple reason – it tried as far as possible to stay out of the private sphere, and thus it allowed an immense system of private privilege to grow that now overshadows the Government, Congress, the Republic, the Constitution, the Laws, and, above all, the People.

Moreover, it gave birth to the mad anarcho-capitalist libertarians who think that government should play no role in their lives whatsoever, and that they should pay no taxes whatsoever. America is now totally split between libertarians who want no government, Republicans who want a small government, Democrats who want bigger government and left wingers who want government to stand up to the privileged elite once and for all. America is no longer a Republic of Laws nor any kind of democracy: it’s a Plutocracy – government by a rich elite, and this was allowed to happen because of America’s advocacy of negative liberty.

What is the antidote? – meritocracy and positive liberty.

Governments never talk about it, but there is actually a huge tension between the nuclear family and the wider community. The nuclear family is anti-communitarian. Houses for nuclear families are small, anti-social units where all sorts of neuroses can grow unchecked. The nature of these isolated social units is such as to create a “them and us” mentality. Families become dog-eat-dog units, ruthlessly pursuing self-interest and with no regard for community. Is this healthy? And what happens when parents get divorced and the family fragments? Because it ignored community, it now has no social network and support system to fall back on. Many such families have to turn to the welfare state instead, at great expense to the taxpayers. The present leaders of the world are creating a disjointed, fragmented, mentally ill society. There’s no solidarity, no community, no physical social networking (only the cyber variety).

The nuclear family is the sanctification of negative liberty, and any attempt by a party of positive liberty to change the world necessitates putting the family at the heart of the process of radical transformation. The three “Rebooting Laws” all target the family. You can only have a new society if you have a new model of the family.
__________

Community:

“DH” drew our attention to container housing projects and new types of sustainable, modular, flexible homes. We are in urgent need of a whole new approach to housing. Our best designers should be tasked with producing housing projects that come with integrated solar panels, wind turbines, ways of collecting rainwater, waste recycling facilities, fibre optic cabling for high speed internet access etc. We need visionary, economic, sustainable, eco-friendly community projects.

Rather than small family units shutting themselves away from each other, we need community housing that encourages sociability, cooperation and solidarity. We could allocate people to communal housing projects based on the compatibility of their Myers-Briggs personality types and their hobbies. Imagine being surrounded by likeminded people enthusiastic about the same things that thrill you rather than by complete strangers with nothing in common and with habits and beliefs that irritate the hell out of you. Where we live is one of the most important factors in our life, so shouldn’t we put a hell of a lot more care and consideration into it? Wouldn’t you like to find friends for life in your local environment? We can make it happen in a Smart Society based on psychology.

The more you are integrated with your community, the more altruistic and happier you will be. You will have friends, allies and collaborators everywhere.

One of the main aims of a meritocracy is to move society away from the dominance of a small, elite super rich ownership class – the classic capitalist model – and towards social ownership whereby the people own the means of production and benefit from the profits, which are then reinvested in the development of the people rather than being appropriated by private individuals for their own benefit.

We advocate collaboration, communitarianism, mutualism, group ownership. We advocate cooperatives and syndicates. Groups and communities should be given vastly more support and importance than rich individuals. Imagine a world where all companies are run by their workers and not by the bosses, where the workers vote on strategy, finance, who gets paid what, who gets promoted, who runs the business. In other words, we replace the current hierarchical, pyramidal model of business where the Old World Order are at the apex and where everyone else dances to their tune in a rigid, authoritarian system in which workers are forced to be deferential, compliant and docile. The new model must be a meritocratic Round Table system where the workers all take part in the decision making process, and those who have the most meritorious ideas which command the greatest support are the ones who drive the company forward.

Every worker will have a stake in the company. The more successful the company is, the more successful each worker will be. Everyone gets a just share of the profits, rather than the profits all being channelled upwards to the capitalist bosses. Everyone should love going to work, should feel valued and productive, should know that their voice will be heard and that any good ideas will be taken up and implemented.

In our capitalist world, all but the bosses are alienated from their work. We need a new world where people love their work because they experience genuine fulfilment through it. No one should be alienated from an activity that takes up a third to a half of their day. It’s folly and madness to be in a job you hate, and society should place immense effort into getting you into employment you love.

Nobel Prizes:

The USA, UK, Germany and France have won the most Nobel Prizes. Relative to the size of its population, the UK is the most successful Nobel nation. 22% of recipients of the Nobel Prize have been from Jewish backgrounds, from a global Jewish population of just 0.2%. However, none of the Jewish winners have been Orthodox Jews with beards, strange hair, funny hats and dark suits. They have all been liberal Jews and many of them were or are in fact atheists, agnostics or deists – certainly not followers of Yahweh. The vast majority have been from America. The lesson to be learned is that, in academic circles if not in its general dumbed-down culture, America provides an excellent intellectual environment for minority groups such as the Jews (and increasingly the Chinese) who have a very strong work ethic and devotion to education.

Muslims have won staggeringly few Nobel Prizes – in fact, it has been said that only three or four observant Muslims have won. The reason for such a catastrophic failure is simple. Islam is a retarded religion with utter contempt for education, intelligence and rationality. Groups such as the Taliban – the standard-bearers of Islamism – have the same level of intelligence as desert tribes of 1400 years ago. They haven’t evolved one iota. If you want to be stupid become a Muslim. If you want to be intelligent get as far away from Islam as possible. Smart people sign up to smart religions and philosophies. The most intelligent religion on earth bar none is Illuminism. Illuminism is the Grand Unified Theory of Everything. It is packed with the highest possible mathematical, scientific, philosophical, psychological and religious knowledge. The average Muslim couldn’t get past page 1 of the Book of Illuminism. That’s just a fact. It’s not because Muslims are inherently stupid – it’s because their religion makes them stupid.

There’s nothing sadder than seeing human beings cursed by primitive belief systems to live out their lives in horrific ignorance. Muslims claim that the real reason they have won so few Nobel Prizes is that there’s a Jewish conspiracy against them. There’s no conspiracy: Muslims simply never achieve anything of intellectual worth. There were brief times in the distant past when Muslim thinkers were the match of Westerners in science, mathematics and philosophy but only when they were allowed to think freely in tolerant, liberal, and enlightened regimes, all of which were soon crushed by Islamic fundamentalists who despised any hint of anything that might contradict the Koran. If you wish to read an analysis of the respective Islamic and Jewish Nobel Prize trends, here are a couple of good links:

The Psychological Box of Tricks:

Psychology is the study of the mind, of how we behave, of our motivations, hopes and fears. Skilled psychologists can manipulate their fellow humans, for better or worse. If you study psychology for yourself, you’ll be better armed to avoid being manipulated. You’ll instantly see through the lies of the elite. And you’ll know yourself much better.

The Old World Order utilize advanced psychology to break us. They love compliant, obedient citizens and brainless voters who don’t cause trouble. Their “system” is designed to create just such feeble citizens. We must resist the brainwashing. It’s like the deadly Kraken, surrounding us with its tentacles, and gripping us in a death embrace. Cut off the tentacles. Resist the mind control. All of our key institutions are designed to mould us into the shape desired by the elite. We need a new flexible mould that we have designed ourselves.

The education system is designed to produce fodder for the capitalist sausage machine: people who obey and never ask difficult questions. The capitalist state has no need for rebels, geniuses and heroes. The elite do not want anyone to stand up to them and challenge them for the best jobs. So, from the moment you enter the education system, you are indoctrinated about fulfilling your role in society i.e. the one that most suits the elite. You are never educated to be yourself.

Schools churn out work droids with little imagination or intelligence. They create conflict between different psychological types, allowing the dominant bullies to rise to the top (just as the bullies of the elite rose to the top).

The education system should be based on a simple set of rules.

1) Teach everyone the basics: reading, writing and counting.

2) Find out what makes every pupil tick. Direct pupils towards the areas in which they can flourish, and take them away from the areas where they will fail. Make everyone feel good about themselves. Build their self-esteem. Establish what they’re good at and give them the praise and encouragement they deserve.

3) Give them a real education: education for education’s sake, not for the business needs of the elite.

4) Identify their psychological type. Separate them from hostile psychological types and surround them with those with whom they will be friends and allies. Our society is sadly lacking in basic friendship. Teach each personality type how best to cope with opposite types, thus avoiding conflict and creating harmony.

5) Cultivate everyone’s unique talents. Treat them all as potential geniuses for whom the sky is the limit.

6) Teach pupils how to think and ask questions.

7) Teach them how to avoid being brainwashed.

8) Teach them to aim for the stars.

9) Teach them lateral and critical thinking.

10) Teach them “deconstruction”.

11) Teach them to challenge “sacred” texts.

The schools of today do not encourage creativity, general knowledge and budding genius. Learning by heart, compliance with systems/methods, doing everything by the book is the key to good grades. This sterile approach is important for your later life: shut up, work and submit to stupid laws and regulations. Some people would jump out of the window if the law demanded it.

After leaving such a school, you are a “perfect” citizen i.e. a slave of the elite’s system of control. You’re a fully-fledged member of the Matrix, and you will never want to escape. Like everyone else, you will care only about making the most money for the minimum effort. And what kind of life is that?

Universities are more of the same. More and more people flood into them, standards fall, and barely-educated people emerge, often with huge debts. They are now forced to take any job to pay their debts. More and more courses are based on what is required by “industry” (i.e. the capitalist elite). Students have been betrayed and cheated by the universities. We need a revolution in education. Television is another favourite weapon of the Old World Order.

Not only do they broadcast uncreative, dumb and useless junk to poison our minds, they also try to program our subconscious to worship key brands of the elite. We “must” have these brands or we won’t have a fulfilling life, supposedly. Goods can’t buy us happiness, but it’s amazing how many fools think they can. Many women have actually elevated shopping to the status of a religion. They worship it. It’s the purpose of their lives, their greatest pleasure. Who but a shallow consumerist could enjoy the selfish, materialistic, narcissistic shopping-fest deified by Sex and the City?

TV also broadcasts politically correct news so that we don’t ask awkward questions about why there are so many billionaire Jews and Masons in America, or they bombard us with scare stories to make us afraid so that we will turn to the elite for protection. Fear is a primary tool of control. People can’t think straight when they are afraid. They become highly suggestible. Islam makes full use of the fear of hell that torments primitive minds.

One of the best descriptions of TV is found in the radical movie Network: “We deal with illusions, man. You’ll never hear the truth from us.”

TV is excellent for promoting the ruling ideology. Ideologies are nice, neat packages for people who are too lazy or dumb to develop their own opinions. Why study complicated books, do a lot of hard research and think for yourself if you can just pluck an ideology off a shelf instead?

The top politicians know the herd mentality all too well. Political parties promote simplistic ideologies. If you buy into one, you become the enemy of the others. People start arguing with each other over nonsense, and fail to see the big picture. In Gulliver’s Travels, Jonathan Swift satirized the absurd differences between different factions by having them squabbling over which way to cut open a boiled egg. The “big-endians” were the sworn enemies of “small-endians”.

Every political party claims that all other parties are incompetent. The logical conclusion is that all parties are incompetent, and, indeed, so they are. So why do we support any of them?

Laws and regulations are created to protect the elite from us, not the other way round. They are made ridiculously complicated and presented in incomprehensible small print and jargon so that only an elite priesthood – the lawyers – can interpret them, and of course they always interpret them in favour of the elite, which was the whole point in the first place. And they take huge fees for doing so, usually at our expense. Who needs lawyers? They are pointless.

Clashes between incompatible personality types, or compatible personality types that have been indoctrinated with opposing ideologies, cause most conflicts.

We like people who behave like us, and dislike those who don’t. We can’t empathize with those who seem to operate according to different rules. We can’t anticipate their “moves”. They baffle us and make us feel anxious. If we lived in a society that was focused on helping us to understand others, all of these problems could be alleviated.

The OWO are not interested in social harmony. Divide and rule is their mantra. If people started agreeing with each other, the OWO would lose their power. They rely on conflict and the inability of people to unite against them.

The shadow – a concept formulated by Jung – is the primitive aspect of ourselves, the part we’re ashamed of and try not to think about too much. Our forbidden desires take root here. The more we try to pretend they’re not there, they more they control us. The shadow grows ever bigger. When it has accumulated enough power, it takes over, and we might commit monstrous acts.

Look at the Catholic Church’s great scandal: priests molesting children. Because of the requirement for celibacy, the priests have been overwhelmed by this denial of their sexuality, and it has erupted in the worst way. But here is an even more interesting revelation. Apparently child abuse by Catholic priests is much lower than in other religions and amongst other adults who are in control of groups of children. So, the Catholic Church, once so powerful, is now an easy scapegoat, taking all the blame when it should be spread much more widely. Isn’t it time we started holding enquiries into the levels of child abuse in all other religions? Can anyone doubt that child abuse amongst Fundamentalist Muslims, Orthodox Jews and Evangelical Protestants is on an enormous scale? Let’s get it all out in the open.

It’s healthy to have fun. In fact you should be able to do anything you like if it brings no harm to others. If religious believers were told that sex is good, healthy and fine, we would solve endless problems in society. Sigmund Freud thought that all neuroses and psychoses were sexual in origin. He may have gone too far but no one can doubt the importance of a good sex life for combating the sinister contents of the shadow. The state should do everything it can to encourage healthy, consensual sex.

Thinkers prefer logic and facts. They distrust emotion, seeing it as irrational. They solve problems in a methodical and rational way, supported by hard evidence. They are ruled by Logos (reason) rather than Mythos (story). Feelers rely on their emotions and personal value systems to experience the world. They give tremendous importance to their gut instincts, to how they feel at a particular moment. They have problems dealing with impersonal facts and logic, with daunting systems of philosophy and science. They are not systematic in their approach because they are so influenced by the mood of the moment. They are ruled by Mythos rather than Logos – emotionally appealing stories over abstract thinking. Jung defined feeling as the opposite of thinking i.e. the more you think the less you rely on emotion, the more you feel the less you operate according to logic.

Intuitives quickly grasp the big picture and evaluate the likely outcome of a situation. They are often idealistic and love metaphors and possibilities. They are highly future orientated. They are dreamers and visionaries.

Sensers see the intricate physical details that other types overlook. They live in the moment, absorbing all of the sensations around them. They are present rather than future directed. Jung contrasted the sensers with the intuitives. The more intuitive you are, the less sense-based you are likely to be, and the more sense-based you are the more you will indulge in the pleasures of the moment rather than anticipation of the future.

So, thinkers are factual, feelers are emotional, intuitives are ideas-driven and geared to future possibilities while sensers are preoccupied with sensory information and are anchored in the “now”. The four types have radically different ways of apprehending the world, so the possibilities for conflict and misunderstandings are many.

These functions can be further specified according to whether they are predominantly orientated to inner or outer experience i.e. introversion or extraversion. Introverts look inwards and extraverts outwards. Introverts mind their own business and are happy to be in small groups or on their own; extraverts love to be in gangs and crowds, and to be in your face. They dislike being on their own. They are attuned to the world and not highly attuned to themselves.

Introverts usually display the opposite tendencies. They are often highly self-aware because they spend a lot of time contemplating their inner nature. Introverts generate energy by being alone. They feel uneasy when surrounded by strangers or standing in front of a big audience. They look inside to develop ideas and concepts. Most of history’s greatest artists, thinkers and visionaries have been introverts.

The super rich, celebrities, and politicians are usually extraverts.

Extraverts get energy via their interactions with the outer world, especially social contact. They are the party people, the thrill seekers, the pleasure junkies. They love speed, novelty, danger, noise and mayhem. They have problems with tranquillity and with quiet people whom they regard as boring and “no fun”.

Extraverts dominate the world. Something like Facebook is a tool for extraverts. Introverts would not feel comfortable plastering details of their lives online for all to see.

In total, there are 8 Jungian “types”:

Introverted Feelers – They have intense feelings and care a lot about people they know well.

Introverted Thinkers – They use their analytical thinking capabilities to support their endeavours with convincing arguments.

Introverted Intuitives – They develop grand visions.

Introverted Sensers – They are aesthetes and connoisseurs, endowing sensual pleasures with artistic intensity.

Extraverted Feelers – They love to express their feelings in front of others.

Extraverted Thinkers – They use their logical abilities to develop or improve external objects, commodities, and services.

Extraverted Intuitives – They are very good at distributing shallow, self-serving ideas and visions to other people. Con men.

Extraverted Sensers – They wallow in sensual pleasures, in action and thrills. They lust after material objects.

Capitalism can be psychologically described as a system devised by extraverted intuitives and thinkers to exploit extraverted feelers and sensers, with introverts fitting in as best they can.

The Myers Briggs Type Indicator is a well-known tool for determining personality type. It’s based on the Jungian types but introduces a further dichotomy based on whether you rely mostly on your thinking/feeling aspect (these are called “judging” functions), or your intuition/sensing aspect (your “perceiving” functions) in relation to the external world. Judging types respect schedules, they love making decisions and they stick to them, making it difficult to convince them that they might be wrong. Perceiving types are laid-back and flexible. They dislike rigid schedules and any decisions they reach are always provisional; they can quickly change them if circumstances change.

A Myers-Briggs type consists of four letters e.g. “INFP”:

Dominant: Introverted Feeling
Auxiliary: Extraverted Intuition
Tertiary: Introverted Sensing
Inferior: Extraverted Thinking

This type is (I)ntroverted and relies primarily on I(N)tuition (rather than sensing), and (F)eeling (rather than thinking). The P stands for perceiving and indicates that in relation to the outer world, the person emphasizes their intuition (extravert intuition). That means that their dominant function is their introverted feeling.

Psychology has tremendous power over our lives. Used negatively, it can turn us into easily manipulated worker droids or consumerist zombies. Used positively, it can transform our world and our relations with each other. It can help us to find out what a marvellous, talented, unique being slumbers inside us. The aim of any good and healthy state should be to use positive psychology to release the chivalrous, talented hero within us, and to eliminate negative psychological forces from our lives.

If humanity becomes as adept at understanding and appreciating psychology as it is at praying to money, its greatest dreams can come true.

Imagine a world where people reach for books by Jung, Freud, Adler and so on rather than the Bible, Torah or Koran. Wouldn’t that automatically be a much better and smarter world without all of the religious hate and fanaticism?

The Old World Order are those who wield negative psychology as a weapon of control. We must use positive psychology against them. Make no mistake, the war of liberation will be psychological.
__________

Psychological Policing:

Every aspect of the world needs to be looked at again. Consider the issue of policing. Police are like a paramilitary organisation. They are usually dressed in black or dark blue and often appear in heavy riot gear. They cultivate an image of force, toughness, hardness. “Don’t mess with us,” is what they want the public to think.

Remember, these people are supposed to be public servants, not thugs, street judges, vigilantes, “tough guys” or the police version of Mafia “made men”.

Rather than defuse trouble, police are frequently the cause of it. They are arrogant, aggressive, provocative, rude, dictatorial, sneering and obnoxious. They try to intimidate and bully people. Most of them are unfit to be in the police.

Now imagine a brand new police service (not force!) consisting of women between the ages of 18 and 70, dressed in brightly coloured, non-threatening uniforms and trained in psychology. Women are naturally kinder, gentler, less aggressive, less confrontational and less arrogant than men. They like relatedness, helping, cooperation empathy and being nice. They have a consistently higher EQ than men. They are famed for having superior people skills.

So shouldn’t they should be the visible face of policing? Police MEN create huge tension wherever they go. Policewomen would seem like genuine servants of public peace and tranquillity. Men wouldn’t be provoked and infuriated by friendly policewomen in bright colours.

There should be a riot squad or SWAT team of policemen kept in reserve if physical force is absolutely necessary, but they should be used extremely sparingly. Most crime-solving police work should be done behind the scenes by PhDs in criminology and intelligence, using sophisticated crime-detection software i.e. “geeks, dorks and nerds” should be the brains of the police.

The whole “New York cops” vision of policing is antiquated and pathetic. We need new policing for a new world, dominated by women and geeks rather than badly educated thugs who are practically criminals themselves. “Traditional” policing can best be summed up in two words: Rodney King. The assault that four policemen carried out on him was breathtaking for its brutality and complete disregard for the law and the rights of citizens. Policemen actually believe they are a law unto themselves. It’s time they were disabused of their delusions.
__________

Jobs for Women:

Just as the police should be given a female makeover, so most banking and stockmarket jobs should be reserved for women. They are not driven by the testosterone-madness that seizes men. They would never take the crazy risks to which arrogant men are so prone. There is of course a time and place for risk – but it shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near an economic system that relies on stability. The world would be radically altered by giving women many of the jobs that are currently the province of men. The OWO is predominantly a male phenomenon. There is every reason to believe that by putting feminine women into top positions, much of the madness of the past could be avoided.

Margaret Thatcher, the UK’s first female prime minister, was lampooned as being more masculine than her male colleagues, and the world certainly doesn’t need any more women like her, one of the most evil people in British history. Many of the ills of the modern world can be traced directly to Thatcher. She was the person who gave birth to the current age of the super rich and she was responsible for the extraordinary growth of the privileged elite. Or, to be more accurate, she did the bidding of her OWO controllers to the letter and gave them everything they wanted.
__________

The Keirsey Temperaments:

Closely associated with Myers-Briggs personality types are the so-called Keirsey Temperaments devised by David Keirsey. Whereas Myers-Briggs focused on extraversion versus introversion, Keirsey put the stress on sensing versus intuition i.e. whether we process the world perceptually or conceptually.

He created four groups called the Guardians, Artisans, Rationalist and Idealists:

SJ – “The Guardians”

Their primary objective is “Security Seeking”. The guardians comprise:

ESTJ – “The Supervisors”
ISTJ – “The Inspectors”
ESFJ – “The Providers”
ISFJ – “The Protectors”

The guardians make up approximately 45% of the population.

SP – “The Artisans”

Primary objective = “Sensation Seeking”. The artisans are:

ESTP – “The Promoters”
ISTP – “The Crafters”
ESFP – “The Performers”
ISFP – “The Composers”

Artisans make up approximately 35% of the population.

So, sensing types make up around 80% of the population in total!

NT – “The Rationals”

Primary objective = “Knowledge Seeking”. The rationals are:

ENTJ – “The Fieldmarshals”
INTJ – “The Masterminds”
ENTP – “The Inventors”
INTP – “The Architects”

The rationals are approximately 10% of the population.

NF – “The Idealists”

Primary objective = “Identity Seeking”. The idealists are:

ENFJ – “The Teachers”
INFJ – “The Counselors”
ENFP – “The Champions”
INFP – “The Healers”

The Idealists are approximately 10% of the population.

So, intuitives comprise only around 20% of the population and are in an overwhelming minority. Frankly, if it were the other way around the world would be a much better place. The world is fucked because it has so few intuitives. We have far too many sensation and security seekers and far too few knowledge and identity seekers.

Capitalism is the economic system of sensation seekers. They love junk TV, action movies and video games: speed, bangs, emotion and excitement.

Democracy, submissiveness, Abrahamism – these are what security seekers want. The security seekers are the deadly dull “moral majority”: the mortgage men and wage slaves, totally complaint droids and drones. They form the bulk of the American Republican Party. They are invariably “patriotic” and “God-loving”.

The Old Education System:

Ordinary schools are designed to churn out people who can read and write to a basic level of competence, haven’t set their ambitions too high, and will be able to fit into the working world where they will carry out a menial and bureaucratic function for average pay.

Increasingly, employers have a big say over what education should be about i.e. education now serves industry rather than its true purpose of the improvement of the individual. Universities are not academies of wisdom, but institutions for the needs of industry. Industry wants compliant, dutiful, obedient workers who don’t think too much and never challenge the hierarchy. It doesn’t want rebels, heretics and freethinkers. It craves “Yes” men who do what they’re told and never complain.

One of the worst mistakes the state can make is to shovel all children, no matter their differences, into “one size fits all” schools where they get a standardised curriculum that is never tailored to any child’s particular needs and talents. If you provided everyone on earth with a one-size-fits-all set of clothes, most would look terrible, while, for a lucky few, they would be a perfect fit. So it is with education.

For a few, the education system is just right – for everyone else it’s a lesser or greater disaster. People are individuals. They have strengths and weaknesses. Incompatible personality types don’t get along well. Bullying is seen as normal in our schools. The teachers never see anything, or deliberately turn a blind eye.

The pupils with the best grades are often not the most intelligent ones, but the ones with the best short-time memory or the best at rote, robotic learning. After an exam, they usually forget most of the material.

In contrast to state schools, exclusive private schools for the privileged elite are about providing the best education money can buy, about grooming the leaders of the future, about providing a tailored education that plays to their strengths, about teaching them to set their ambitions as high as possible, about building powerful social networks for them that will secure them the best jobs and guarantee them the best things in life. When it comes to the education of the elite, everything is done to ensure the best possible outcomes.

Life, in short, is a rigged system where a small network of elite families profit from the efforts of the majority.

Education ought to be about discovering what children are good at, and what they’re not. If you teach mathematics to a person who has no mathematical aptitude, you will shatter their confidence and selfesteem. They say in the military that you should not “reinforce failure”. Neither should schools. Don’t keep making people do things for which they have no glimmer of talent. It’s pointless, counter-productive and psychologically damaging.

Some children possess artistic talents, others practical skills, others logical skills, and so on. Some children “think” their way through life, others “feel” their way. Some are highly intuitive while others rely on their senses. Some children like to learn through visual means, some like to be taught via a teacher talking to them from the front of the class, while others like to be continually moving around and interacting with objects.

We need schools that respect different psychological types, different aptitudes, different ways of learning. The “one size fits all” approach is ridiculous. In order to get a highly educated and productive society, we need an education system tailored to getting the most out of each and every one of us. We should be encouraged to “think” properly – in the way most appropriate to us, in a way that allows us to grasp the bigger picture and to develop our unique set of talents.

Education is the basis of a well-functioning society and everyone deserves to have access to knowledge. An excellent education should be free. Education is the bedrock of an advanced society, hence requires the most investment. But where will the money come from? From the 100% inheritance tax on the rich initially and a massive redirection of funds from the military-industrial complex, and then from the enormous increase in productivity, in GDP, that will result from a properly educated society. What are we waiting for?

The New Education System:

The purpose of a proper education system is to give each and every person the best chance in life. It is not supposed to be a sausage machine squeezing out an endless supply of drones, droids, and unthinking, compliant, submissive conformist fodder for capitalist offices and businesses. Education must be tailor-made for everyone. How is that accomplished? A one-size-fits-all system must be consigned to history. Variety is the key to the new education paradigm, based on Meyers-Briggs personality types. There should be sixteen parallel education systems, one for each Myers-Briggs type. The education provided will be perfect for each type, addressing students’ strengths and avoiding their weaknesses.

This will be the first time in history that students will get a bespoke education designed to draw out the best from them rather than just throwing a single curriculum at everyone. Children should receive this type of primary education from age 4 to 10. The purpose of this education is to ensure that everyone can read, write and count fluently, and to start identifying where their main interests and talents lie. In the secondary phase of the education system (from age 10 – 16), there are four education systems based on the four Keirsey “temperaments” – guardians, artisans, idealists and rationalists. This allows the mixing of introverts and extraverts. Secondary education provides everyone with a broad education across many subjects, culminating in the students’ completing three final-year projects in the subjects that most interest them.

The tertiary education system (from 16 – 21) involves the provision of the 10,000 hours said to be necessary to turn someone into an expert in any chosen field. The student, on the basis of his most successful project at the end of his secondary education, chooses the field he wishes to specialise in then gets five years of it at the most intense level. At 21, he is an expert in his field and can enter the workforce and make an instant impact at the highest level. He will be so expert that he could easily become the boss within a year.

We will have a whole generation of 21-yr-old experts – the most educated group in human history – ready to change the world almost overnight. They will be the most elite human beings of all time, ready to implement such visionary paradigms as the Venus Project.

These 21-yr-olds will be experts in subjects they love. They can expect to enjoy extremely fulfilling lives devoted to what excites them most. They will not be fodder for capitalist bosses. Most of them will be massively better educated and more expert than their bosses. They will be the vanguard in a human revolution. They are our glorious future.

There may be a fourth component of the education system (from 21 – 26) – the genius level. Those who have proved themselves the most expert in their fields will receive another 10,000 hours of education in the hope that they will go beyond the known bounds of their field and generate the new ideas that open up endless new possibilities for humanity.

Summary:

Age 4–10: primary education, based on the 16 Myers-Briggs categories.

Age 10-16: secondary education, based on the 4 Keirsey temperaments.

Age 16-21: tertiary education – the 10,000 hours (equivalent of a super-advanced Master’s Degree).

Age 21-26: equivalent of a super-advanced PhD.

Of course, this is just a prototype education system, a starting point that will be dialectically improved until it produces the best-educated human beings in history, a new generation that will be fulfilled and energised, and will never kowtow to any privileged elite.

Democracy:

The Big Lie – democracy is the best type of government; all democracies are stable, prosperous, peaceful and just; the people are well educated, creative, moral, altruistic and live in harmony; democracies offer maximum freedom and their politicians are highly skilled and humanitarian; pain and suffering don’t exist anymore; everyone has enough to eat, clean clothes, access to education; all people are seen as equal yet unique; the resources and money are fairly shared; life in democracies is close to paradise. Just look at the smiling faces all around you.

Now wake up. The democratic nations are bankrupt in all but name. Their politicians are corrupt. The people are zombies in the grimmest of rat races. The only people smiling are the elite. But why is it like this? Shouldn’t a perfect form of government produce a perfect society? If democracy really is as good as it gets then the world has nothing to look forward to. Paradise for the people is never coming.

Democracy, cast as the ideal political system, is a mirage. Most people prefer lies because the alternative – the truth – is too hard. Nobody wants to do anything difficult in a selfish, hedonistic society. Although people desire a better world, they will play along with nonsense and propaganda so long as it comforts them and doesn’t demand action and effort from them. Democracy will survive as long as it keeps manipulating the people into believing that it is the last word in political wisdom.

Most people have been brainwashed into worshipping democracy. They never consider any alternatives, and nor are they ever told about any alternatives. Why not? Because the puppetmasters who pull the levers of the democratic machine don’t want to lose the system that has made them so rich and powerful.

The chief advocates of democracy are the politicians who make an excellent living from your tax money, the bosses of industry who lobby and bribe the politicians, the bankers who make a fortune out of manipulating the economic system of democracy, and the media who whisper to you that democracy leads to salvation while all other paths head straight to damnation. Anyone who disagrees is crazy, a heretic, a sinner, a troublemaker, an anarchist, a revolutionary.

The weak-minded choose the “right” side (i.e. they are pro-democracy), to demonstrate that they are “clever” (i.e. compliant) and not “mad” (i.e. individualistic and thoughtful). It’s the perfect system of mind control. Democracy is based on the absurd belief that elected politicians are noble men and women who dutifully reflect the will of the people, that they serve others rather than themselves. But if they wanted to improve the world, they would have done it long ago, wouldn’t they? What is the main feature of all democratic societies, the one that demonstrates what their true purpose is? In ALL cases, the rich have got richer. That is the undeniable objective of democratic societies.

Democracy – cui bono? The super rich is the transparent answer. Who caused the financial crisis? The politicians, the regulators and the super rich. How did they cause the crisis? Easy – their entire focus was on high-risk activities with massive rewards for the super rich. When things went wrong, who had to pay? – the dumb taxpayers. That’s their function: to make sure the rich don’t ever lose. The super rich have rigged the system to ensure that they get all of the upside and none of the down. They did it thanks to the cooperation of the “democratic” politicians who do their bidding.

These great democratic leaders of ours tell us incessantly that we would be lost without their wise leadership, although all they ever do is lead us from one disaster to the next. Without them, they say, there would be chaos, yet it is they who cause the chaos as they pursue ever-higher profits for themselves and their friends. The super rich are the kings and queens of medieval times in a new guise, and we are the same old serfs we have always been. If everyone gets what they deserve, what have we done to deserve this?

Our politicians are bad actors in a third-rate play: Punch and Judy for Dummies. They play the part of serving us while their hands are in our pockets, thieving from us. They spout endless platitudes. They are masters of “spin” – putting a positive gloss on all of their fucks ups, broken promises and ineptitude. They are grand masters in the art of lying. They never give a straight answer to any question. They think we are the most gullible people who have ever lived, that we will swallow their lies indefinitely. And are they wrong? They promise everything and deliver nothing. Yet still we vote for them. Why? Are we stupid? Do we never learn? Isn’t that the definition of the stupid and the mad – people who keep doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different outcome?

Where is Obama’s change? He’s just a different actor reciting the same old lines. The real power lies in the hands of the Old World Order – the shadow government consisting of rich and powerful Freemasons and Zionists. All that matters to them is money, power and a good life for themselves. They are experts at getting what they want. Politicians are the Old World Order’s pets. If they perform the right tricks, they receive a filled bowl of juicy goodies. Positive change that serves all of humanity is never on the agenda. The politicians and their precious democracies exist to prevent us from ruling ourselves and getting justice.

Has your voice ever been heard? Has anyone ever listened to your concerns? The law is controlled by crooks, the banks by robbers, the media by professional liars. In a civilized nation, the enemies of the people are put in prison. In democracies, they are put in charge. Every four years, the politicians suddenly remember you. Yes, it’s election time and they need your vote. With honeyed words, they promise you everything, including plucking the stars from the sky just for you, the precious voter. But as soon as the election is over, every promise is forgotten and they go back to enriching themselves and revelling in their power. No stars for you, just dirty moon rock to accompany the moonshine they have sold you yet again.

Politicians will say anything to get your vote. They use “focus groups” to target you with the precise message you want to hear. They make you feel important, make you think that the fate of the nation is in your hands. The truth, of course, is that it will make no difference who wins the election. The Old World Order will still be in charge. They are never up for election. The media barons laugh at the compliant voters who so blindly support a rigged system that serves only the guys on top of the pyramid. Most of the candidates you vote for are carefully chosen and supported by the OWO, the controllers of the media machine. If, despite their efforts, the wrong candidate wins, the establishment can simply change the outcome of the elections. Don’t forget: they count the votes, not you!

Free speech: you can speak as freely as you want, but no one’s listening. If you happen to belong to the small group of people who commit “thought crimes” (i.e. those who prefer to have their own opinions rather than subscribe to ideologies based on fatuous, unsubstantiated slogans) then you will be viewed with suspicion and even labelled as an idiot or madman. You will be branded, marginalized, and ridiculed.

The defenders of “free speech” demonstrate their hypocrisy by ostracising people for questioning certain holy and untouchable dogmas, especially if the poor, innocent Jews are involved. When the Jews say they are God’s Chosen People and that God promised them the land of Canaan even though it was owned, populated and named after the Canaanites, no one is allowed to object or complain. No one is allowed to say that the Jews violently stole the land from its true owners, hence are a criminal nation. If I steal your money I don’t then become the legal owner of your money, no matter what my “God” says to justify my actions. I remain a thief and a criminal. If you point out this simple fact, you’re labelled as a dangerous anti-Semite who must be silenced as soon as possible. Why aren’t the mad claims of Judaism, Christianity and Islam put on trial? Why isn’t their God put in the dock and charged with crimes against humanity? Truth doesn’t fear investigation, does it? Aren’t we always told that if you haven’t done anything wrong then you have nothing to fear?

The media is owned by big corporations. What is the aim of a corporation? To earn as much money as possible with the least amount of trouble/work. A journalist working for the New York Times confessed that journalists are nothing more than prostitutes selling themselves to the highest bidder. Money counts, not truth.

Only a small number of alternative media and blogs are fighting the giant media machine. Do you really think that the big corporations want you, the lowly worker, to read/hear what’s really going on behind the curtain? That would threaten their empire. They prefer to frighten you until you crouch on the floor and don’t dare move. This makes life easy for those in authority. Another favourite scheme consists of telling you the lies you want to hear to make you forget the cruelty in the world (suitably created by letting the evil do their work while the “good” look away).

“In an age in which the media broadcast countless pieces of foolishness, the educated man is defined not by what he knows, but by what he doesn’t know.” –Nicolas Gomez Davila

Do you want to know how to put the military-industrial complex out of business? Simple. Show close-ups of what cluster bombs do to the people they fall on. We in the West are never shown the results of the “handiwork” our armies do in our name. If we saw the hundreds of thousands of corpses torn apart by our bombs and bullets, we wouldn’t dare to show our faces in the world.

Who is it that decides to hide the corpses from us? If you are willing to slaughter others then you should be equally willing to show the world what you have done. To conceal it is to prove that you are engaged in shameful deeds that cannot sustain public scrutiny.

The Smart Society:

“DH” contacted us and asked the perceptive question of whether humanity has in fact hit perfection in the form of democratic capitalism. If this system is indeed perfect, he said, it implies that a thousand or a million years hence we will still have exactly the same form of governing system. He’s absolutely right. It’s unthinkable that we will still have capitalist democracy in the far distant future. The human race is capable of so much better. Therefore, we should already be thinking of what will replace it, of what will be around in a million years from now on. Let’s have it right now.

Meritocracy is the solution. When meritocracy is fully embedded and we have created a Star Trek/ Venus Project world, we will indeed believe that we have produced the optimal political system and society. No one on earth will be able to suggest how it could be improved in any significant way. It will always be possible to make minor improvements, of course, but once meritocracy has taken root it will represent the end of history i.e. the end of the search for the final way in which we should govern ourselves. Freedom will be at a maximum, as will creativity and the means for maximising human potential. There will be no more conflict. Everyone will have a fulfilled life.

In a system of privilege, only the privileged are free. In a religion based on the slavish worship of a tyrant God, only the tyrant God is free. In a system with the super rich at the apex, only the super rich are free.

Meritocracy is extremely simple. It’s about destroying all aspects of privilege in order to ensure that a free elite cannot enslave the non-elite. It’s about destroying belief in tyrant Gods that enslave billions of poorly educated, superstitious minds. It’s about ensuring that children are not the slaves of their parents. Parents have no right to brainwash children with their own beliefs. Their beliefs are their affair; children’s beliefs are their own affair. It’s about ensuring that the success or failure of parents has no influence on the success or failure of their children. Everyone starts with a clean sheet and is judged on their own merits and deeds. No one’s fate is allowed to be shaped by events that happened before they were born i.e. by events in the lives of their parents.

Meritocracy is about the maximisation of freedom and talent, and the abolition of all forces of slavery and privilege. Meritocracy is the final stage of the human dialectic because it optimises human freedom, merit and knowledge. All other systems are flawed and backward in comparison. They are dialectical stages destined to be swept aside by meritocracy.

Meritocracy is the inevitable winner in the long wars of politics, religion, art, culture, science and philosophy. Nothing beyond it can be conceived. It is the last word in human evolution and lays the path for humanity’s journey to the stars. If you are against meritocracy you are against the future of the human race. You are a dinosaur and you will surely become extinct. The unmeritorious can never defeat the meritorious. The Smart Society will always defeat the Dumb Society. Knowledge will always defeat faith and superstition. Merit, unbound, will always defeat privilege. Freedom will always defeat slavery.

Get with the program. Get with the future. Join the meritocratic movement, the final phase of the human dialectic that has taken us on an incredible journey through horror, misery, slavery, hatred, greed, privilege, faith, superstition, Devil-worship, irrationality and madness to the bright Promised Land of freedom and knowledge. Meritocracy is the culmination of our evolution from slime to divinity via mortal existence.

Abolish Privilege. Abolish mainstream religion. Abolish faith. Abolish superstition, Abolish irrationality. Abolish the super rich. Abolish the elite.

This is the Age of Freedom, this is the culmination of the cosmic dialectic. You can be part of it. You can be a hero. You can be God. You can arrive at the cosmic Omega Point. There is no stage beyond. At the Omega Point you have reached the terminus of existence. You have completed the journey that ends all journeys, the journey of the cosmos itself from maximum potential to maximum actualisation.

Meritocracy:

There’s one remarkable aspect of the revolutions in Arab countries – the enormous numbers of people they mobilised to fill the streets.

Facebook and Twitter were said to be instrumental, yet it’s hard to imagine that Facebook and Twitter could ever achieve the same thing in any Western country. Why not? Why are Westerners so lazy and apathetic, so compliant and submissive, so in thrall to the “legitimacy” of the powers-that-be? Even at the height of the Credit Crunch virtually no one was stirred to action. Capitalism had collapsed, but no one moved a muscle. No one suggested any alternative. The people responsible for the financial disaster were the ones allowed to “rectify” it rather than being fired for gross incompetence as they should have been.

Part of the problem is that no one is offering any realistic alternative to democratic capitalism, which is why meritocracy has such a crucial role to play. Meritocracy is the only card that can trump democracy.

Meritocracy is not about equality, but about equal opportunity. They are very different concepts. Meritocracy is about unequal outcomes based on merit. In order to assess merit correctly, it’s imperative for everyone to set out from the same starting line.

Meritocracy focuses on identifying the more meritorious and ensuring that they get the best and most influential jobs. It doesn’t pander to the lazy and those who don’t want to make the most of themselves.

Meritocracy is no kind of communism imposing an artificial equality on those of unequal merit. Meritocracy asserts that merit is the only criterion that can rationally be used for differentiating between people: not sex, race, age, parents, money, or social connections. Only one type of discrimination is valid – that based on merit. But who is to be the judge of merit? The only acceptable answer is the people. Well-educated, well-qualified, fair-minded, unprejudiced, rational people will judge who amongst their number are the most meritorious i.e. This is the one place where a democratic voting procedure is essential.

Assuming that no one has the chance to rig an election then there is no reason to suspect that people will not identify the most talented amongst themselves.

Imagine the ideal process for awarding the Nobel Prize in physics. Every qualified physicist in the world would have a chance to nominate someone. The five physicists receiving the most nominations would then be put on the ballot paper. The one who wins the election gets the prize – he has been judged by his peers to have achieved the most in physics that year. Would anyone be able to legitimately disagree with that verdict? Is there any better or more valid way?

Those who desire a revolution if the West must have a plan. They must be able to show what they will put in place of the existing ruling order. So what is the plan for the New World Order?
