  1. I sent FB-Friend request to MSK when his name appeared on my wall so as to invite him / this group to a set of FB-Posts with interesting titles as described below: I live near Mumbai, India. My life was destroyed beyond redemption / recovery because of extreme fanatic orthodox Hindu upbringing in a family believing in male ego to be evil and female as embodiment of good (Hinduism is too complex; this is one of the variations / branches). Not all Hindus following this line take this view as seriously as in my family – to convey their religion very briefly, it was satisfied only if males born in the family were impotentized except for producing the next generation; females became superior / virtuous when compared with such males. This is not so shocking if one considers that many religions preached child sacrifice as act of virtue, 1000 year Dark Ages were based on Original Sin etc; (in our case Original Sin was limited to male child). Same old story happened: a chance reading of “the novels” WTL, TFH, AS etc led to what I call as miracle – the irredeemable me became a human being, even if not ideal. Philosophy was not my line, but my fanatic upbringing, destruction of mind to the extent of inability to live, the continued pursuance to not let me escape from “their religion” VERSUS impact of Ayn Rand, would not allow me to live without jotting down my experiences / thoughts. The FB-Posts I am talking about are a product of this conflict. My training in philosophy is limited ONLY to AR’s novels and non-fiction books available in India like Virtue of Self…, Capitalism, Anti-Industrial etc. Nowadays other material is available on the net, but I am not interested because I came to some other conclusion: That including O’ism, Austrian Economists, Libertarians, Conservatives, all American philosophies promoting individual rights, capitalism – i.e. original American philosophy of the Founding Fathers – have failed to make any difference to America’s unstoppable slide to abyss and there are reasons for them to fail which they have not dealt with, because they have not even discovered the reasons. THIS IS SEEN ELOQUENTLY IN MY LAST FB-POST WHERE I COMPARE MY POLITICAL VIEWS WITH THOSE OF DR. PEIKOFF OF ARI.

  2. All of modern world’s problems, the unstoppable slide going on in the Western world led by America, are attributable to one phenomenon which is not even analyzed so far: DEMOCRACY. One man has done that and presented an excellent book of his analysis, but somehow it did not get attention and it seems the author does not have the means to market it, at least no effort is seen. As per the info given on his web-site the author is an Indian. The book is dedicated to Ayn Rand. Name of the book: Is Democracy the nemesis also of the Americans? Website: https://americanemesis.wordpress.com/ All are urged to visit the website and discuss the ideas here. The articles are so good – and novel -- that I shall be posting them here for further discussion.
  3. It's America's original constitution which was not a democracy but a true republic -- but as Franklin said, they could not keep it. Only one site had some discussion about this post (10 comments); on all other sites it was generally neglected. I thank the few who responded – it is courageous to encourage when all others choose to neglect a controversial topic. Fortunately nobody stamped me as racist – that allegation is normal if one just mentions what is openly going on in politics despite it being obvious that if one upholds the original constitution of America one cannot be a racist. From one angle Ingram’s comment (on TP Nation) is correct – America seems to be going down just with a whimper, not nukes – as Ayn Rand said: not Satan with drawn-out sword but a corner-lout (Dem-liberals!) sipping a bottle of Coca-cola! From another angle it won’t be so – no squirming / wriggling of GOP / TPM is going to work; ultimately fanatic Christian, white supremacist etc type of groups will surely takeover like after fall of Rome – this time the celebrations could be with nukes. My Indian colleagues who helped me with my writing have sacrificed heavily simply because they read Ayn Rand (whose popularity amongst educated Indians is second to America) and realized how much they owe to white-man’s enlightenment via British! They are ready to do more for America than most Americans – they are under huge persecution because of their American thoughts, sort of out-castes, yet undeterred, therefore more heroic! Our actual target is democracy -- but if groups based on any criteria like race / religion etc are being used to grab power then they have to be identified – We found that in American politics, the Dem-liberals, the major destroyers of America for the sake of power (the Rep-Conzs being the minor destroyers) are the real racists, but they use white-man’s self-inflicted undeserved guilt about slavery in such a manner that the emancipator is projected as evil! They started the game (of the welfare state) by first destroying the Af-Ams by means of doles, turning them into parasites cum vote-block, then into criminals, and now using them for the felling. (Af-Ams were the start; today the welfare state has taken over everything). Democracy has so demoralized the white-man that we cannot expect him to pronounce the king to be naked – only the innocent child bereft of cowardice will do so! The above is brought out in my next post (in 1-2 days). I request members to logically point out where it is racist; whether it reveals facts related with American politics or no; and whether there is a massive inversion or no, i.e. whether the Dem-liberals, who accuse anybody speaking truth as racist, are the real racists or no? I have purposely titled it a bit dramatically as below – but the real intention is to keep it factual with a warning embedded in it, and an invitation to point out anything wrong with it, racist or otherwise. Are some blacks the only honest intellectuals in AMERICA? (is looking the other way the way to protect rationality? or is it the way to push white youth into kkk, N-word and 88!) WILL WHITE COWARDICE LEAD TO AMERICA’S collapse?
  4. Admin -- Something has obviously gone wrong with my attempt to reply William Scherk. Request admin to please remove my blank and obviously useless post. My response to William Scherk (and others): The above article is only an Introduction to my book -- Racism in America: White Racism or Reverse Racism on Whites? That too is a part of my wider work on democracy which I hold to be the most important culprit. I will have to get editing done by pros. Also, I will have to hire them for marketing / promotion. Such books, when merely uploaded on Kindle, do not attract a single buyer because thousands and thousands lie there unnoticed. Kindle does not provide these services and Lulu does not provide them to foreigners. So I have to approach Author House; they had bad reputation previously, but now they have been bought by Penguin who are reputed. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS ABOUT THIS ASPECT, I.E. SERVICES, PROVIDERS ETC? Thanks.
  5. There is lot of discussion about encouragement to Af-Am hatred against whites on the Tea Party sites where I am a member – at the end I made the following generally self-explanatory post to start my long OP on related issues which have now become very serious. XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XX The huge misunderstanding and undeserved guilt amongst white Americans about the topic of racism due to history of slavery, their demoralization due to democracy aggravated by the whole world hating their success (including internal haters), makes me repeat a few lines as introduction to this post. An important frequent objection was on TP Patriots: What the heck does this topic have to do with the TPM and our three core values? And even warnings were issued not to go astray into racism. Basically I am for the 3 core values of TPM. But democracy has destroyed them, so I am against democracy. Democracy runs on votes and for a long time now race is being used as a major tool to segregate America, to create loyal vote-blocks, garner votes and they have already destroyed the US Constitution. In fact when the GOP emancipated the Af-Ams, the Dems were racists and Af-Ams were loyal GOP voters. But later, as part of democracy, the Dems hijacked the entire Af-Am vote-block by gradually destroying the US Constitution, starting with Wilson the racist-segregationist, FDR’s New Deal, Demo-platform of 1960 etc! But on TP Nation the black conservative Marcus produced an exceptional quote to show how race is being misused to destroy America since 1911 and prior – merely to satisfy vested self-interest. (http://www.teapartynation.com/profiles/blog/show?id=3355873%3ABlogPost%3A2909178&xgs=1&xg_source=msg_share_post (Part of it is produced here for readers’ convenience -- Marcus Quote: While I am familiar with black Republican author, orator, and advisor to U.S. Presidents, Booker T. Washington, I only recently came across this amazing quote from him which nailed the Rev. Sharptons and Rev Jacksons of America back in 1911. “There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs – partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.” Wow! Booker T. Washington had these low life scoundrels figured out way back then. He perfectly described the shameful despicable exploitation of the goodness of the American people on display at the Michael Brown funeral. Folks, in a nutshell, the Left's selective outrage over Brown's death is about getting paid and ginning up rage-based black voter turnout for Democrats in November. Apparently, the Democrats and MSM only consider a young black male's life of value when it is taken by a white person. Epidemic black on black shootings only get a yawn from Dems and the MSM while sipping their mocha lattes. Insidiously, irresponsibly and strategically, President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder even threw in their anecdotal two cents, sharing their uncomfortable experiences with police as black males. Marcus Unquote As per the link provided by Marcus just above, Obama has taken the unprecedented step of sending 3 White-House (apart from the role of his special advisor, the famous Reverend, in the drama) to attend Brown’s funeral – all 3 are black – and white people shiver that they will be accused of racism! Part of my response to the above: But just incidental to Marcus’ information above, I am producing a similar piece (it is shared with a similar-minded Indian friend I acquired during my many years in India for job purposes) -- A rich European NGO came to a slum in India to educate and improve them. The slum-lord without whose permission nothing can be done there, has 3 known wives (and god knows how many illegal ones). He suggested a simple solution: “spend 10 -12% of your huge kitty on a few binges of food and cheap alcohol for the people you want to uplift; they will be happy because they don’t like to learn but consume. Divide remaining money into 2 parts, one for me, the other amongst all of you.” They said, “Ours is a long term project, we want to teach these illiterate people how to live”. He answered: “Bloody idiots! If these people improve where will I go? My huge money, leadership position, clout, boot-legging, everything depends on their votes which depend on their being illiterate worms.” India and US are so far apart in terms of development as to be different universes – yet they have some similarities too – that is because of democracy which leads to similar behavior of power-hungry politicians. Democracy is a fertile ground for the breeding and prosperous nurture of these scoundrels (referred to by Marcus and Booker Washington), the Sharptons and Jacksons -- but the list of whites pointed out by me (Wilson, FDR, JFK, LBJ to today) is far more pernicious; the drama is far more paying to them than Sharptons and Jacksons and Obamas. Merely cursing them or even removing them is of no use, democracy will ensure that they will be replaced by equivalents; democracy necessitates need for evils such as today’s reverse racism on whites (as per Marcus “despicable exploitation of the goodness of the American people”). DEMOCRACY SHOULD BE UNDONE Unquote The racial division is now substantial – the three core values of TPM are mainly held by whites (and therefore they are called as “racists”) and non-whites mainly vote for their destruction. And as Marcus says, issues like Trayvon Martin, Mike Brown are frequently blown only for vested interests. Several policies of Dems are adopted purely with race in mind (example increasing their voters by Latino immigration). The individualist Americans’ (mainly white Americans’) response to all the above is captured in one statement by a member on TP Patriots: "unfortunately liberals have played the race game so well and so long that we are all fearful of being labeled racist" – this is a gross understatement, the whites hold a huge undeserved guilt about slavery and are going overboard in making up for it, almost to the extent of getting America destroyed – If they know the reality (which I am presenting) they will be shell-shocked about the falsification: they are the greatest and only emancipators in mankind’s history while slavery and prejudice are very normal all over the earth even today! I agree that one has to show that he is not being racist while bringing out the contribution of race to today’s slide – but if the topic is completely banned it will never be exposed. I will offer my write-up with proofs and within limits of not making any racist remarks – and every statement will be logically proved. My OP on the topic is in reality an Introduction to a long write-up; unfortunately because of the huge misunderstandings about this topic I had to write an introduction to the introduction! Please remember – the topic is too complex, half page posts will get us nowhere except criticizing the opponents within our own cadres who already know it all. Long write-up is needed to undo democracy and you will have to be patient with my writing. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Following is just an introduction to my long write-up on erosion due to democracy and misuse of race / religion in it. Like many Americans I have always been politically conscious and intellectually active and during the course of it I have stumbled upon a principle I have called as “The Established Norm” – that the man who contributes so highly to civilization as to be called as hero is made to pay heavily for his heroism; all of mankind’s greatest heroes were just lynched and burnt as heretics all over the earth at all times except for small periods of time and over small regions like ancient Greece. Even in Europe around the formation of the US they were made to pay, the prime example of which is Galileo. During recent times they are not burnt, yet Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead is a typical story of treatment meted out to many even in as advanced a society as the US! On the other hand the men who perpetuate huge irrationality are looked upon as idealist / messiah. Not only that the past is monopolized by such “saints” but even some American Presidents belong to this category, example St. FDR because of his “New Deal”! But this phenomenon applies not only to individuals but also to entire societies. As an example, the Anglo Saxons who came out with the concept of unalienable rights of an individual had established the best society in human history so far, were the greatest contributors to knowledge and greatest liberators of men in human history. But they as well as their ideas are thoroughly maligned. For example, their ideas of right to life and freedom of thought and expression are the only basis of civilized life on earth; the “undeveloped” societies are actually uncivilized because of lacking these rights. Right to life is the right to rational selfishness, whereas freedom of thought and expression is the right to rational usage of ego. But the very ideas of selfishness and egoism are so much maligned amongst mankind as to be looked upon as evil – consequently the western man is looked upon as “selfish” (traditionally meaning murderously evil) exploiter and enslaver. But even the western man considers selfishness and egoism to be evil and particularly amongst the Anglo Saxons, charity is looked upon as the final virtue, the ultimate end to be achieved by man. To be considered really successful in Anglo Saxon societies, achievers also have to undertake charity – what’s more, one can also see a competition amongst them about it. (Please note that this attachment to charity is an important factor contributing to their inability to stop the ongoing slide of their countries.) (The falsity of so-called undeveloped societies in considering western man to be evil is exposed by the fact that they simultaneously long to, and commit acts of daredevilry to illegally migrate to the western countries – that is a part of “The Established Norm” explained above, to consider the westerners as evil because of their virtues, but at the same time to avail of the benefits of those virtues by illegal activities!) With reference to the issues of slavery and racism the white Americans led by the Anglo Saxon Protestants (ASPs) who are predominantly individualists, offer another glaring example of an entire society subjected to the above described Established Norm of huge injustice to the rational contributor. Starting with the British who implemented abolition of slavery decades prior to the Americans and who stopped massive injustice under the name of religion (all over the earth), the ASPs spread civilization to the extent it exists in the undeveloped societies today! The ASPs built, with tremendous courage, efforts and sacrifice of blood, sweat and life, two continents on two sides of the Pacific, a radically different New World as compared to the old one they gave up; they also liberated a lot of people, to list some of them: the Af-Ams, Europeans (many Catholics amongst them), myriad migrants from all over the world (including many Latinos and others from enemy countries), and all those who are free all over the world like the three Indian lower castes. But today the emancipators are unquestionably looked upon as enslavers and racists, the whole earth (led by evil bodies like the UN) hates them, and every epithet is thrown at them like greedy, selfish (traditionally evil), materialist looters of earth, war mongerers etc. But more importantly, the emancipated people who have not contributed much to civilization are out to take-over their countries (this is not merely internally, even the external evil of the UN has intruded in their internal affairs and violated their sovereignty), and the original creators almost have no answer to it! Please note that ‘whites’ has become a symbol of hatred, not only all over the earth, but even within their own countries, mainly representing the American whites followed by Western Europeans. Accordingly, today’s racial problem in America is not of white racism, but of Reverse Racism on whites, which is very glaringly being seen; but the social atmosphere is so very full of wrong ideas that most mainstream intellectuals denounce as racist any man who says so. The whole of it is a huge shock because of its massive, purposeful, glaringly open inversion! (See ** Note below). Not racism, but slavery is openly being practiced over a large part of the earth, against which the ASPs are the only and greatest emancipators in the history of mankind. Though internationally the word racism automatically implies ‘white racism’, the fact is that ‘hate’ exists much more strongly in rest of the world than in America of which I have given many examples in the write-up. None of the well-established slaves (for example the lower castes, i.e. 80% of India) would have seen freedom for thousands of years to come, had it not been for ASP enlightenment via the British who abolished slavery decades prior to America. (Looking at today’s situation what one can say is: If there is any blemish on the ASPs then it is only that they emancipated people who did not deserve to be emancipated; of-course this is racist, but so also reverse racism on whites, and the latter is destroying civilization, not the former.) To convey the gravity of misconceptions I am quoting a sentence from within the write-up: During Civil Rights movement of 1960s it was invented that whites invented slavery and heaped never-before miseries on Af-Ams (and from whatever I have read I seem to be the first person telling white people about the above complete inversion against them!) Just because they are magnanimous (while today also being demoralized), they are targeted as racist! Further shock: They accept their undeserved guilt, they bend and pay to rogue-politicians, and even help evil men in destroying their country! ** Note – As a comment, a reviewer informed me of such a bigger, widely held, popular misunderstanding about the topic of slavery and reverse racism on whites that I was forced to include below a separate sub-article titled “A widely held popular belief, an LMAO, or ASP quest to destroy the civilization they built?” Please see the sub-article ahead. Important question is: Why did this reversal happen to the ASPs, and why did they accept it? The most important reason is the ASPs’ inability to guard against democracy, because of which they have been thoroughly demoralized, leading to cowardice. I have handled erosion due to democracy and solution to it in further parts of my write-up; here mainly racism-related aspects are described. The most important characteristic of democracy relevant here is its dependence on majority as arbiter of truth, which sets a competition of getting the lower strata of society to one’s side even by unfair means. Amongst other things like creating and nurturing a huge vote-block of parasites by distributing doles out of productive peoples’ money, it also necessitates making continuous allegations against the good and virtuous – as shown in the write-up ahead, the rulers need to first impoverish and criminalize the lower strata, which then need a target to hate so as to keep them bound as followers. That is the root of such self-righteous hatred of whites, of strong Reverse Racism against them. The intent of this write-up is to do justice to those who have naturalized into Americans and have adopted the original Anglo Saxon way of life of individualism and are today being subjected to huge injustice of Reverse Racism. Note that in America there was some change as compared to Britain that many Europeans (and even others appreciably) naturalized into American way of life of individualism (i.e. racism reduced amongst them) – yet the origin of American way of life remains distinctly Anglo Saxon, and whites are predominantly the individualists, therefore called as “angry white men” by their opponents – hence beyond this point the words ASP, Anglo Saxon, whites etc are used for “individualist Americans”, without racist intention, it being shown ahead that as a group the white Americans are the least racist on earth. (By contrast minority labels surely have racist purposes which I have explained ahead in detail.) Because of my firm conviction about the magnanimity of America’s Anglo Saxon heritage, and determination to undo today’s reverse racism on them, I studied practice of slavery and hate all over the earth with emphasis on India’s caste-system. I found that Indian rulers (evil Brahmins called as RPs for reason explained ahead) are the best example of monstrous evil who murdered India by imposing the caste system – it can throw light on some American rulers who are now traversing the same path. One important reason for inversion of facts could be that emancipation could not have happened overnight, it had to stretch over several decades; the start of emancipation had to be the older way of life (slavery) inherited from mankind’s past (with the emancipators owning and trading in slaves), gradually abolishing slavery and then even eliminating racism after civil rights movement in 1960s. That transition stage from 4000 year-old slavery to emancipation by ASPs over 100-200 years is intellectually one of the most complicated parts and is being used to accuse ASPs of being racists even while they were gradually emancipating. (See sub-article about Inheritance ahead.) (Since I have challenged ahead the intellectual establishment about many aspects related with reverse racism, I challenge them at the moment to describe an alternate pattern of emancipation, i.e. if supposing mankind were to be emancipated, how would it proceed – a lone ‘savior’ of slaves under Egyptian Pharaohs as shown in some biblical movies? (Slavery is that old.) Another commandment on Mount Sinai? Miracle, punishment of god’s wrath to “white sinners”? Reincarnation of Christ? Then how and particularly could it happen overnight? The ASPs were the greatest and only emancipators in mankind’s history, but the start of emancipation had to be a continuation of mankind’s past!) Amongst the intellectuals known to me, the “only man of courage” who did some rational work in this regard is Ayn Rand. She has written a single article on Racism (in the book “The Virtue of Selfishness”), which is very inadequate for this huge topic, but the likely reason is that Reverse Racism had not developed like today – but as soon as she noticed the first steps of Reverse Racism, she showed the courage of pronouncing truth, which exposes by contrast the cowardice of all other mainstream white intellectuals (and in particular her alleged Objectivist (O’ist) followers). I shall give explanation based on quotes from her article on Racism. Hers is the only article I have seen to be against “Negro Leaders”; and it was as far back as in 1960s, just after the civil rights movement when they commanded huge sympathy and their bad behavior had just started! Following are simple derivations based on quotes from her article: Quote Today, it is not an oppressor, but an oppressed minority group that is demanding the establishment of racial quotas! It means that white laborer is to be charged with collective racial guilt, the guilt consisting merely the color of his skin. That absurdly evil policy is now destroying the moral base of the Negroes’ fight. Unquote It is the above mentioned collective racial guilt that the whites are very foolishly carrying today, post 2000, and paying for it in the form of huge Reverse Racism against them! Otherwise the Af-Ams (and more importantly Democrats – Dems leading them) have long time back lost “the moral base of the Negroes’ fight”! In fact most politicians (but foremost Dems amongst them) have lost their entire claim to a moral base, but the ASPs do not have any answer to the situation. If the above is Ayn Rand’s reaction to the very start of Af-Ams’ racist misbehavior, imagine what she would have said about the “This is for Trayvon Martin” carnage-cum-revelry seen in 2014 when they have lost all sympathy due to their criminal activities and parasitism – I did not see much reaction to it on many O’ist forums! Ayn Rand’s article starts with the sentence “Racism is the lowest, most crudely primitive form of collectivism.” This statement substantially absolves as society, the Americans (who adopted Anglo Saxon philosophy and way of life) of all charges of slavery and racism – there never was on earth, as much of an individualist, benevolent, magnanimous and enlightened society as the Anglo Saxons who built so much on earth, and who brought in so much of knowledge and emancipation. Whatever negatives remained in them were inherited from mankind – whatever enlightenment was there, was theirs! The whole of the ‘undeveloped’ world is in various degrees a continuum of collectivists, starting with western Europe being a distant second to America, followed by Far East, then the more backward countries like India, Bangladesh etc – to such an extent that, forget backward people, even the seemingly developed Europeans too have not fully understood the original ASP concept of “unalienable rights of an individual”, rights which neither the rulers , nor the remaining society could violate – unfortunately too many Americans too have forgotten it today! (Despite being 250 years old, when compared with 4000 year-old history of collectivism and mankind’s low ability to assimilate complex philosophical concepts, it is very new and not understood by mankind that is fully submerged in collectivism!) As a corollary to Ayn Rand’s statement, even today, amongst different countries, Americans are the least racist, others are far more so; and internally, as large groups, whites are the least racist (even if foolishly carrying undeserved guilt), while minorities are much more so, and are out to destroy America misusing the former’s magnanimity. The whole achievement and superiority of Westerners (led by the ASPs) is consequent to accepting rationality out of the Renaissance (Rebirth of Reason) that took place in Europe, which other people adamantly refuse to accept. And today, western cowardice comes out of not recognizing this fact. That adamant refusal is the most important point in the issue of race; till other races do not accept ASP philosophy of individualism (i.e. no welfare state, among other things) as way of life, and do not give up collectivism (including its covert, sub-conscious practices like voting as a block for doles), there will never be a solution to the racial problem but in fact civilization itself will collapse and race will be used to hasten the fall. A complete refutation about accusing American whites of racism is that till one extends ‘the inalienable rights of an individual’ to other races one cannot be called as racist for making references to racial characteristics if factual – only when one tramples others’ rights on racial basis does one become a racist. The Anglo Saxons never need feel threatened or embarrassed (or like a Nazi) due to any charges of racism against them, but should proudly bear their heritage as the most benevolent community and the emancipators of whosoever is free on earth. (Forget “rights of an individual”, it is American charity since 1750s, and now governmental charity, that makes me call them as fools and cowards – it has boomeranged on them!) In reality today’s question is not at all whether white Americans are racist or no – it is whether other people (who adamantly refuse to accept individualism) deserve those rights or no, whether they deserve to live in the same society or no, whether whites should agree to getting destroyed by sharing their society / civilization with such people. (Many prominent Americans’ views on race like those of Washington and Lincoln are available, of which Lincoln said after emancipation that whites and blacks cannot live together in harmony – should we say today that westerners cannot live together with any other people unless the latter accept individualism?) If somebody says those are their natural rights, are they able to achieve them if left alone, in their own societies, say Africa, Mexico, Iran, Afghanistan, India etc – obvious inference is that they depend on the whites to get those rights, and then hate the emancipators, pull their society down by voting for doles. “Unalienable rights of an individual” is not something one gets in the jungles of Asia and Africa, hanging by the trees like fruits – the ASPs’ is one of the greatest feats in mankind’s history -- so very big an achievement that even the next generations of ASPs are unable to defend it because of their inability to understand democracy! (That is the reason why they so very fittingly became the victims of “The Established Norm”). Others have to live upto it to deserve those rights – the important question in this regard is whether the whites will ever garner the necessary courage to say so and to protect their civilization by whatever means necessary or no? Today internal collectivists have become the biggest danger to America and the question is how to make them accept individualism – making voting rights rational, or arguing for the last time followed by civil war and eviction, or ruthless suppression to save rationality and civilization? (There is danger from external agencies like UN mainly because of successive US governments being influenced by votes of these internal collectivists).

  6. THE LAST LONG REPLY – WILL NOT TROUBLE YOU AFTER THIS Bobby Newton on TPN; Repairman on OO and Daunce Lynam on OL -- Sorry for delay in response causing loss of context due to time-gap – had to urgently attend to problems due to being pro-America in India! Bobby Newton on TPN: Your idea for war has many risks. Detailed planning would be needed: secure communications, leaders with current military skills, tanks and armor, medical supplies, air cover, fighter bombers and a naval presence. Unquote. I want civil war to be averted as far as possible, because it is devastating, opens the country for out-siders, and are they waiting for revenge? This time it will be especially dangerous because of nukes. It may mean end of civilization. Only thing is: It may not remain a matter of choice! Wars are not caused by weapons but due to Irrationality; America being unbeatable, will head for internal implosion. Then other countries will get involved, mostly led by America’s self-created monster, the UN whom Dems are already inviting and Rep-Conzs have no answer to democracy’s problems. Patriotism cannot be relied upon; it exists only when the rule is of reason. I again quote the veteran Stack Magic: “Now we sit and watch as the money runs out and the dictators rise, and they are coming. Right now a soldier or marine is in the desert, angry, feeling stabbed in the back and eyeing power and revenge. It's on.” Unquote. See following news from my book “Is Democracy the Nemesis also of the Anglo Saxons” (only gist given): Aug 2012: sikh_temple_massacre dated Thursday Aug 9 2012, titled: Sikh Temple Massacre is the Outgrowth of Pervasive White Supremacism in U.S. Military RanksTo quote a few sentences from the news: Quote: Shooter Wade Page was openly neo-Nazi when he served in the U.S. military from 1992 to 1998. Journalist Matt Kennard, in his coming book, "Irregular Army: How the U.S. Military Recruited Neo-Nazis, Gang Members, and Criminals to Fight the War on Terror,": "Every base has white supremacists because they are allowed to operate freely ... it’s all over the United States. It was all over Iraq and it’s all over Afghanistan." [includes rush transcript] Unquote There are several references to Neo-Nazi, White Supremacist groups in US army. Examples: 1. American Swastika ; 2. White Militias ; 3. Recession and backlash ; The above is more anti-Muslim, but the recently formed White Student Union in Baltimore is anti-black. Much more bad sentiment was seen after GZ-TM case and many books like one by Ann Coulter, or articles like http://www.phillymag.com/articles/white-philly/ are gaining traction. (Comments on the article are typical of the undercurrent amongst young white Americans who do not feel as guilty about slavery as the seniors.) So much of it is found even on TPM sites. Much of this is not racism, but backlash to Reverse Racism against whites, from behind which actual white racism too is being promoted, all aggravated by democracy, Dems, hi-fi etc – confusion will disable rational people from joining hands and winning. (In absence of proper intellectual guidance, tomorrow they may even have a ‘white Christian army’, but the mistake will not be theirs! In reality reincarnated Caesar, Pompei etc will head gangs representing different vested interests (pressure groups controlling nukes) – it will not be victory of whites, but with democracy’s problems intact, it will be collapse of civilization after initial takeover by dictators. In all cases, for civilization to continue, it has to surmount democracy’s problems, which has never happened in mankind’s history! The important point involved is that the whites don’t have good arguments to stem the erosion of the republic they built; so erosion will keep continuing; but not all of them will accept its destruction meekly like sheep. At some stage distorted responses like militias, racism or other forms of hate etc will convert into all out fights and / or emergence of dictators!) Those are complete fools who really think GOP is their savior against Dems selling the country – both are just playing to democracy’s requirement of satisfying lowest common denominator of society starting with the Doles Vote Block. Both parties are quite influenced by wall-street and big business and therefore likely to be hand in hand with middle-east Muslims’ investments all over the earth, MNCs owning factories in China, military-industrial complex and defense-related companies, plutocracy etc. They are merely using the white soldiers as dispensable pawns in their game; pay respectable salary and take back 40+% as tax, set Muslims, Commies, sundry dictators etc as targets as per necessity of MNCs (Iran, Iraq, Af-Pak being recent examples), but never finish wars, and so on. The competition is only over fooling the fools and grabbing power by promoting irrationality – same as in today’s ‘undeveloped’ India, same as in Rome 2000 years back, and on same lines as everybody’s great-grand-father Plato described 2400 years back to surprising accuracy – (one may wonder how he knew so very well FDR, LBJ, Nixon, Bush (43) & co, or their Hindu counterparts, or Julius Caesar born many centuries after him; all he knew was some basic political principles and the path democracy’s collapse will take). (As said repeatedly, democracy and the intellectuals are more responsible for all this.) Re-read Stack Magic’s quote again, Bobby Newton doesn’t have to bother where to collect weapons from, who will lead etc; everything is in place, only matter of few years! (When rulers become corrupt and lose respect, when they use “the executive order” too many times, the army which has real power, takes over. Top level officers are not fools not to understand that they are all being used life-long for a few thousand dollars while billions of US Dollars are being siphoned even by UN bastards! But they are true dictators and struggle for power leads to conditions like Pakistan since 1950s etc. If somebody is depending on American patriotism then so much for it.) My solution was meant for both the situations – first priority ballots, else bullets if inevitable, rationality should win, FFs’ America should be restored. But I don’t think many people agree with my views. Repairman on OO: Out-pourings of “reason” continue from O’ists! The third hi-fi (O’ist) disparaging relatively better people, twisting statements to maintain wrong allegations etc despite continuous explanations to the contrary. To keep the post short his entire comment and response to several statements are included in the long version in this link: http://share.cx.com/XgJtYV Only one statement answered at length below, because all Americans need to know it. (CX.com a/c or password not needed; click download on the CX screen that appears). The ethnic/race problem in the US is a subject best discussed in the brightest of light cast upon the volumes of history: Have you looked beyond your country to know what real racism is, how it is practiced all over the earth? Not always racism, but prejudice? E.g. India has both racism (Aryans vs Dravidians) and hate (caste based divisions across both races). Far from being limited to white people, prejudice is powerfully practiced all over the earth, Far East, Middle East, Africa’s racial genocides which are worse than holocaust. Examples of hate: anti-Semitism, anti-Christianity ……. So on. Have you studied its 4000 year-old history, or never considered anything beyond hating rational Americans, equating them with Nazis for defending the values that built America? I don’t have a chance amongst you and this is my last reply, but I am compelled to say the following: BLOODY FOOLS – NOT ANY O’IST-NUTTER ALONE, BUT I AM DISGUSTED ENOUGH TO SAY THIS TO ALL OF YOU – exceptions will always be there, so there could be traces of racists amongst 200 million white Americans; but barring these, overall as a society – to pronounce this I feel a combination of shame and disgusting nausea so I am delaying it – YOU WERE NOT RACISTS, YOU WERE THE GREATEST EMANCIPATORS IN MAN-KIND’S HISTORY WHO HAD COME CLOSE TO ERADICATING IT BECAUSE OF GRANTING UNALIENABLE RIGHTS OF INDIVIDUAL TO EVERYBODY! Never before had some given so much to mankind (including to a race that has been enslaved for 4000 years, but in reality to entire mankind). I do not know whether anybody is interested in my interpretation of history (detailed in my book), see if it makes a difference: Slavery, KKK, considering the Negro to be inferior etc was not your creation, i.e. not your guilt you fools – it was what you inherited from mankind – same things which are even today going on all over the earth on a much bigger scale! (And you just sit apologizing and offering bribes to any rogue who makes any allegations about racism and slavery against you.) Civil war and granting “unalienable rights of an individual” to all was your great achievement, your magnanimity, climax of rational man’s aspiration for civilization – and perhaps also your undoing, because you did not know that the released lower strata would turn back on the emancipators, how to handle them, etc. (Lower strata is DVB, not Af-Ams alone, else again another O’ist-nutter will call me racist). The history post civil rights movement (60s) is mainly Reverse Racism against whites carried out by Dems leading the minorities, supported by hi-fi wanting to remain intellectual leaders despite inability, and made feasible by a weird, shameful combination of very foolish white-self-guilt, over-magnanimity, moral cowardice to uphold individualism, and refusal to accept these flaws. And so the felling by internal savages whose leaders are inviting external savages to assist in it! (I have enough writing to prove all the above, but no audience, no good response from ‘angry white men’.) Only 2 people will claim what I claimed as my ultimate compelling argument against democracy: an utter fool or the man who knows. I was kicked out of some forums, and neglected by men with means on other forums, so may be I am a fool. OR MAY BE THIS HAS A DIFFERENT EXPLANATION: I have explained it in my book as civilization turning full circle – heroes bring in freedom to all as Republic, it gets converted to democracy because of inability to lock it against erosion, the emancipated lowest sections of society (DVB) aid the evil intellectuals to take over democracy, undo freedom, and usher in tyranny. Discovery of Reason by heroes in Greece emancipated the Greeks, but democracy sapped their strength; Romans took over but ended with doles based democracy – what followed was the long night of Dark Ages belonging to Plato. The sun again rose with Aquinas inducting Aristotle. Now it is several centuries past sunrise; it is even 500 years past what I called as “The Anglo Saxon Protestant Revolution” starting with Bacon. Maybe the sun has already set with America peaking out and we are merely in the after-glow heading towards another long Platonic night so that expecting a hearing to reason-based argument is foolish. Daunce Lynam on OL: Comment is representative of many who just claim to be hi-fi (by merely reading Ayn Rand / Von Mises type of books but unable to live upto them). After a lot of leg-pulling, sarcasm etc about my posts, this comment is an admission of having lost in O’ists’ famous terrain of “reason”. Comment: “I believe you are an Indian citizen and resident. Why do you think Americans will listen to you? ” Response: O’ism is an international movement (another commentator said SFL is spreading Ayn Rand globally). Americans who adopted India’s Buddhism, Hare Krishna movement, even Sikhism etc, come here to teach it to deviants like me. My attachment to Anglo Saxon philosophy, why ‘untouchables’ even today worship English language as Hindu style goddess inviting British guests, etc is explained at the very start of my book “Is Democracy the Nemesis also of the Anglo Saxons?” To repeat: Never before had some given so much to mankind at large. Now one of the Dunces who have undone it implies: We will listen to our political leaders against whom we shout hoarse and wail day and night for murdering America; we will even listen to (i.e. obey) the UN intruder-bastards; but why should we listen to (i.e. entertain) a bloody Hindu who converted to ‘long live America’? I encountered this mentality even amongst other O’ists. Finally it all depends upon the individual alone what will be his real self – parroting Ayn Rand’s ideas and imagining oneself to be far above rest of mankind merely detaches one from reality. When his true level becomes obvious to such a person he makes comments as above or throws the more logical person out of the forum. I have the solution to America’s problems – but see what response I got from people I thought were above rest of mankind! Somebody could have gained immensely out of my books “ASP Revolution” and “Is Democracy the Nemesis of the ASPs”; he could have headed a badly needed movement. But it was not to be – till I find an alternative already in my mind. Sketch showing “Problem of Democracy” to be completed later on to show how evil intellectuals and opportunists takeover rule with the help of 30 - 35% lowest stratum of society; and how the thoroughly divided individualists, some crossing over due to divisions, help them in doing so. ß may give scanned copy on net and supply link to it.
  7. ‘Challenge to hi-fi’ in this post will give the reader idea of severity of America’s problems today. Response took time because I waited for late comments and then other distractions came in; also this is a difficult topic. (Answers to main comments -- danb1215 on Freesteader, Lizzie and Bob Newton on TPN, Nicky and Secondhander on Obj Online are given in this post. But being longish, the most important part, viz. ‘Challenge to hi-fi groups’ is given below, rest is available in the link http://share.cx.com/5bFYWm ) danb1215 on Freesteader: I can't keep up with all of the acronyms and abbreviations. I bet you're fascinating in person. Acronyms, defined at the first occurrence, are used to shorten already long post. ASP is Anglo Saxon Protestant; FFs is Founding Fathers; DDVB of P is Doles Dependent Vote Block of Parasites; for hi-fi see ahead, though many people understood it. Challenge to hi-fi: In my criticism of hi-fi, O’ists are generally used as example for two reasons: One that I came from that side and started net-discussions on Ayn Rand forums; second that they are very strong in denouncing anybody that does not conform to their line of thinking (like the O’ist comment again disparaging Christianity on an OP explaining the latter’s contribution to America!) But the criticism is applicable to all hi-fi groups to the extent they divide the individualists. One more point: Net-forums, meant to discuss a particular philosophy, should allow reasonable criticism -- either refute it or accept it as improvement. Instead some O’ists debarred me for deviating from the line of their leaders, started campaign etc. Hi-fi are small groups of conservative, free-market etc intellectuals and think tanks like O’ists, Austrian economists, C4L (Ron Paul), Libertarian & Constitution Party, Cato, Heritage and many others (all catering primarily to middle and upper class Americans) who fight irreconcilably over real issues, but which are trivial when compared with the fact that the two equally bad political parties are competing to convert White House into Kremlin or Vatican. Hi-fi teach man’s rights, capitalism, anti-doles etc only amongst the middle and upper classes, but never where most needed, the lowest strata. In effect they they make no positive contribution but strengthen divisions in the middle-classes where unity against larger evil is badly needed. I will elucidate further on what hi-fi groups do with the example of the issue of race, but will be very brief here (I have lot more writing on this issue but no exposure, no support): A proper analysis of race will surprise people that even Af-Ams have lost (apart from huge injustice to whites), and have just been used as pawns by politicians. Only dishonesty and irrationality have gained, along with welfare state and big government taking America to collapse. Today Af-Ams are heavily criminalized (police records will give stats) and middle-classes hate them; but the Af-Ams too were far better off prior to civil rights movement used for expanding the government. Says one black writer Walter Willaims, “The welfare state did to the blacks what slavery could not do, that is to destroy the black family”. Distrust and hatred between races regularly surfaces during cases like GZ-TM, George Zimmerman–Trayvon Martin case recently. Majority of Af-Ams belong in the lowest 30-35% bracket which I have said above (see full version) is used to promote evil. The emancipated Af-Ams have been made voting-slaves of Dems, while the Reps have grabbed the middle-classes. I can prove all this, but here the purpose is not to talk about race per se, nor of how evil politicians increased welfare state by destroying Af-Ams, but the overall behavior of hi-fi, (with O’ists as example) including their response to the issue of race. Today it needs to be said, for the purpose of keeping America stable and united, that there is something terribly wrong with prevalent ideas about race and that the issue needs to be studied properly, and those who encourage minorities against whites have to be punished. But just talk about opening the issue for study and see how packs of wolves attack you! To capture minorities as their vote-block the Dems heap unlimited doles, justify all their misbehavior and fan hatred of whites. (White backlash is also seen against this once in a while.) What do the O’ists (and other hi-fi) do about it? Just as they attack white middle-classes (Christian nutters, libertarian hippies, “Ron Paul should go” etc), so also they admonish the middle and upper classes with their allegedly hi-fi views about race which serve evil. They are not seen talking much (in fact almost anything at all) against minority criminality, minority racism, anti-America activities (La Raza) of a minority or about Dems abetting it. Therefore I have to now challenge them as follows: Their allegedly hi-fi knowledge (man’s rights, capitalism etc) is more needed amongst the lowest strata, so let hi-fi go into the ghettos and advice them to give up demands for doles and give up criminality / drugs etc! Just as they deride “Christian nutters” let them tell the Af-Ams that their philosophy is anti-life and suicidal! If they appreciably educate the lowest strata who are Dems’ solid vote-block, I am sure that many Americans will join me in saluting them! I further challenge hi-fi: Since anti-white feelings have purposely been fanned in the ghettos, teach them, instead of merely admonishing white Christians, why they should not be racists. GZ-TM was the case over which entire America’s (and partly even international) attention was riveted, US President intervened by the side of “if I had a son” TM; hence possibility of wrong judgment was almost nil. If after the judgment in such a case black mobs vandalized and attacked “crackers”, drew blood from behind the slogan “This is for Trayvon”, then where is justice in America? The stats of black-crime are available – if one tried to defend himself, he had a choice of how to get killed – either by TM or by “this is for TM”. And they are said to be so weak that I become a racist when I talk about Reverse Racism against whites, allegedly because they have no power to do such evil things! I remember that a girl admitted that the word “cracker” is commonly used by them. I now challenge hi-fi to tell them that all this is way beyond what whites can do in their wildest imagination, and that whites are punished severely for almost nothing compared to these crimes! I didn’t see many comments against all this on hi-fi sites, particularly O’ist. When did they adopt the attitude of “See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil?” Where real education is needed (i.e. amongst the lowest strata), do all their moral tenets such as “One should always speak out”, consciousness is identification etc vanish? Will they make similar disparaging comments about the lowest strata as they make about white middle-classes? Yet the worst about this case is not over, see ahead. Dilution of challenge: OK hi-fi, you cannot do anything out of the above then I will dilute my challenge: don’t criticize minorities, don’t educate them, merely do one thing – stay in their midst, stay at the center of a ghetto. As further dilution, stay even at its edge but within a ghetto! Cannot accept even this? But that is the place where real change, education etc is required. So you want to live within protective zone of whites, mainly “Christian nutters”, and also destroy their world, undercut them, backstab them because they take no action against you for one-sided bad criticism? And you should also be venerated as purveyors of hi-knowledge? Now let us see the response of middle and upper class America to the phenomenon. GOP is making false noise of reducing the government and using the helpless middle-classes as their vote-block to carry out their huge private agenda, describing which will require a separate book! (Their agenda of school-prayers, gay marriage etc is meant only to retain this vote-block.) And despite their intention of bringing in small government, fiscal responsibility etc, the tea-partiers also have no solution to the solidly united block of parasites versus the solidly divided block of individualists aggravated by democracy’s freedom to all to foment divisions. Their criticizing small-time politicians, RINOs, the blatantly racist minorities, dictators all over the earth etc are of no use. They are also partly playing blame-game while traveling downward along with whole of America. (From what I sumise, their’s is a rebellion against both the parties, though they are tilted towards GOP.) But the intellectuals have failed them and they too are in the same trap of getting divided due to inability to answer Dems’ doles gambit! Therefore, so that the reader may know what trap America is in, I also urge him to consider the above challenge, viz. changing the lowest strata by educating them, and if not possible then just staying in their midst. Then the reader will come to know just the start of America’s problems. Democracy twists and magnifies problems, creates new problems, etc but DDVB of P is the start of problems. Then the reader will realize that without touching the core of the problem all of them are just playing a child’s game within their own groups. Because of its unity the DDVB of P is the most efficient tool of evil to destroy the good; historically (since Greek and Roman times) no solution has been found to it. And if others abstain from voting due to disillusionment then DDVB of P decides who will rule America! So far there are only 2 ways known of dealing with the lowest strata, both leading to bad consequences: 1. Use them as vote-block to grab power -- the requirement for this is to satisfy their ever-increasing demands and vicious behavior, leading to victory of evil over good; 2. Suppress them physically because they refuse education, self-reliance etc – but this may lead to civil war because the power-seekers will side them! (Julius Caesar was born out of this, and as Stack said, they are coming in America too!) There are also 1-2 other ways, but they are part of my solution below. Today the matters have gone far beyond and America seems to be just some time away from collapse – there are many signs of this, following are just samples: Earlier the thought of American President bending in front of the advanced Europeans was shameful – now the rulers seek savages to bend in front of, because commies and Sheikhs are their bankers! But why did you land America into that debt, Sir? There is neither willingness nor way to come out of that debt; and though everybody has adopted ostrich-attitude, soon reality will prevail when world will discard the toilet-paper, and then all hell will break loose. Other signs like bail-out plutocracy and rule of oligarchs, war-mongering with army in 125 countries, spying, tapping mails and phones are a-galore; Right to bear arms which FFs called as ultimate defense against govt (so much they were against an expanding govt), too is being taken away, like precaution before final assault. But two events are competing for the position of top-most sign of fall: First, the Dems invited the UN to referee in America’s internal affairs, like inviting the serpent to resolve internal fight of frogs – and yet Obama was re-elected afterwards, thanks to DDVB of P. While the FFs wouldn’t allow Europeans on American soil, today they are inviting UN as judges! The FFs (and their knowledge) came from Europe – the UN is pure, naked, uneducated, uncivilized savages. Second, re-read details of GZ-TM case given above, the worst part is that the acquitted GZ had to go into hiding because of threats from mobs on rampage, and if politicians side such mobs as “weak” then where is justice and law in US, supposed to be the safest place on earth? Their flaunting vandalism against their emancipators was a purposeful defiance of America’s police apparatus and entire legal system, and perhaps Constitution itself, as if saying “We are well protected” and as if they knew who their protectors were. Dems siding them, and hi-fi always admonishing white middle-classes but never this behavior is tantamount to ‘hatred of the good for being the good”, whether conscious or unplanned – this is the main guilty party, not the uneducated mobs. Can you imagine Russia or China issuing such threats to an innocent American, and will he go into hiding? No, Russia-China are no match for America, but imagine Americans beaten by whom? The invincible, indomitable Americano who fought against the most powerful monarch of that time with a make-shift army of poor farmers, also rose against his own government when it imposed prohibition, dominates (at least so far) the world with his army in 125 countries, now being beaten merely by DDVB of P whom he emancipated -- merely being beaten by rogues and charlatans posing as politicians whose main power is DDVB of P! The world looks at them in awe, and see who is grounding them! Like the Greeks and the Romans pior to them, is Democracy the nemesis also of the Anglo Saxons? But Americano, the whole above underscores one point – the importance (which cannot be exaggerated) of one subject many of you deride – philosophy – Aristotle! Also note that I used race just as an example to bring out how the lowest strata is being used to destroy the good – the real culprits are charity, democracy, etc described in previous OP: Can Christianity, Locke, Ayn Rand, Von Mises save America? Solution consists of a powerful argument that will strongly unite middle-classes with a single prime aim – to self-righteously restore and defend the original FF-constitution even by waging a war if necessary. That is my ultimate compelling argument. But I have no locus standi; people have no time / interest to read more than a page. People can promote themselves if they join hands with me. But else I am finished with these forums which are not going to lead anywhere except downhill. (Some people have attached value to my writing; unfortunately it is negative because they are persecuting me to write against US – I don’t have the means even to bring this out somewhere; it would make a very good case!)
  8. MODIFYING CHRISTIANITY TO SAVE AMERICA This post is shortened to the extent possible. But the link to its longer version is given at the end. As part of comments on earlier OP “Can Christianity Locke Rand Mises Save America?” I said “Protestant religion is unique and a minor change can be made to it to save America”. There is extreme critical attitude amongst several intellectual groups about Christianity and a typical comment, partly quoted, was – “Christianity is THE problem with the West. On its own it is dangerous, but when you secularize it you get the Left. I doubt we would have seen a phenomenon like the Marxist Left without Christianity influencing the Western Mind.” Being a typical comment no personal affront is meant, but my mission being to forge unity amongst individualist Americans I have to refute it. Brief history of ancient church (important modifications relevant to our purpose here): Since its beginning Christianity was modified into different Churches like Greek, Russian, Syrian etc, including 2 – 3 denominations in India. The Roman Catholic Church is its major power; Plato was the most important influence during the thousand years of Dark Ages when there was total power in the hands of kings and priests and the intention was to misuse religion to destroy all Greek knowledge. Bhudevs, i.e. “Gods on earth” was the position of kings and priests, backed by theories of Divine Right of Kings. People lost faith and to justify Christianity Aquinas inducted the outlawed Aristotle. After centuries Aristotle displaced Plato, subsequently leading to Renaissance (rebirth of reason). ASPs built America by modifying Christianity Francis Bacon’s “nature to be commanded has to be obeyed”, coupled with Galileo case (symbolizing science versus religion and thought versus dogma), opened the surrounding phenomena to mankind. John Locke’s theory of mind being a blank tablet at birth is simultaneously a step (a Protest) against “Original Sin”, against Confessions and the king and the priest’s power over the individual. Adam Smith’s statement about “the butcher, the brewer and the baker” infused rational selfishness into society (called as “right to life” by the Founding Fathers (FFs) of the US). Aristotle made British Empire strongest on earth – yet they continued to be devout Christians. Final climax was in the New World – inalienable rights of an individual, even the monarch was done away with, and the Pastor was respected, but separated from political power. Protestant religion infused into Americans via upbringing, “way of life” etc, rationality and individualism, which rest of the world even today does not understand. I have lot of details about it. Catholics also had to change: The Roman Catholic Church was also compelled to undergo huge change and its political power is limited to the Vatican City only. In the same neighborhood they could not have completely opposite ways of life as compared to the reason and science based progress of Protestants. Therefore Europeans look different from rest of the mankind, and even Turkish Muslims are less fanatic than other Muslims. Religion necessary for a large section of society: Heroes contributed more in the transformation, but heroes are easily lynched by irrational societies (all over the earth and all through out history with the exception of Greek and present western civilization). After Aristotle’s induction to justify Christianity it was the suppressed middle-classes seeking freedom who supported change via the Protestant religion – and it would not be rational or civilized to rob them of due credit. Several examples involving Plato, Aristotle, Locke, Ayn Rand, Von Mises etc are given to show why a large number of people do not understand “hi-fi” philosophy. Of these see the one involving Ayn Rand. Office colleagues were already against me because of Ayn Rand stuff, and somebody circulated my copy of her book on epistemology amongst engineers to show the first page which said: HOW DO WE KNOW WHAT WE KNOW? That is the problem that epistemology deals with – and upon the solution of this problem every other aspect of philosophy must rest. Unquote. Did they garland me because I was reading “epistemology”? They started pointing fingers, joking, giggling etc. Example: How do you know the building you are designing will stand? Does its foundation rest on a solid philosophy or only on soil? Etc. They were engineers of the same quality as Indians in the West, but had not migrated. From that judge what will be the reaction of people with much lesser intelligence at the bottom of society! See other examples in the long version. Do all people have so much of intelligence to differentiate between this and Kant? Ordinary people need philosophy to be given in terms of do’s and don’ts of ethics, usually AS RELIGION! But below the middle-classes to the lowest strata of society, the doles dependent vote block of parasites (DDVB of P) that Mitt Romney was afraid of, the response to hi-fi theories is “Fxxx them all but give me my 3 three meals”. The middle-classes who can understand some rationality and civilization oppose the parasites of DDVB of P but need guidance. Good philosophy was passed onto ordinary people by modifying Christianity, and by infusing science and rationality into Protestant religion. All religions are similar and cannot be wished away from earth – theoretically they are also similar to Marxism. But there is a big crucial difference between today’s Christianity versus other religions, which we are discussing at the moment. (The following is addressed to hi-fi: Marxists also tried to erase religion out of existence, but lost while religion remained; in the past the Romans were swept over by Christianity despite crucifixion. Religion does satisfy the need of a huge section of society, so transform it. The Founding Fathers (FFs) of US, very devout Christians, found a different solution – so follow their path, thankfully, instead of grandiose illusions of cleansing the earth of religion.) The big question: the founding generations of the US were fanatics by today’s standards. Then how did they build America? Will any other religion, Marxism etc, similar to Christianity, be able to build America? Wall of Separation makes Protestant religion unique and enables both, creators and ordinary “believers”, to practice what they want: ASPs could build because of the magnanimous FF-Constitution which ensured unalienable rights of an individual, guaranteed freedom of thought and kept religion out of government. Against that GOP is using today’s Christians as its vote-block based on issues of gay marriage and school prayers, against the Dems’ DDVB of P. Americans have to think why their ancestors sacrificed so much if power was finally to be returned back to the political manipulator and the priest – just so as to destroy everything by bringing in the next Dark Ages? Jefferson’s Wall of Separation between state and church was the great achievement that made America possible. While all science, intelligence etc were fully unchained and active, believers also lived as per their beliefs, i.e. both were able to live as per their mind. Further modification necessary today because Christianity insufficient due to weakness This weakness is already described in the previous post, viz misuse of Charity: No opposition is possible by GOP who has to only me-too when Dems assert self-righteously: “Yes! We are carrying out America’s sacred duty of helping the poor!” (To retain their Christian vote-block GOP indulges in war-mongering and bail-out plutocracy.) Why not “Hi-fi” philosophies but only modifying Christianity will help? Because mass-support is indispensable to implement and sustain political rule. Great feats are achieved by individuals, but creation is possible only in a society of rational human beings, not of savages. A rational society in itself is a value to be cherished and preserved. No matter how great the creator is, he derives lot of benefit from a rational society – his vision started with the work of others prior to him. As world history shows, except for ancient Greece and modern America, the “thinking individual” is always and very easily crushed on earth. “We the Living” is Ayn Rand’s conceptual autobiography; see such people’s fate there. People like me who live away from America know the value of those “low level Christians”. Till those “low level Christians” follow the FFs’ Constitution give them their due; don’t rob them of that credit. One reason why Washington was a great general was that he knew that every soldier was precious; he visited them many times to keep their morale intact! Most of them must have been devout Christians and bereft of hi-fi philosophy! It is the Protestants who built America; it is with their help that she will be saved. One reason why American think-tanks will not get solution to democracy’s problems is because they don’t take reality of social gradations into account, and the fact that when evil uses the lowest strata to destroy civilization, it is the middle class (mainly Christians) that will save it if proper guidance is available. This is explained next. Society is not an undifferentiated mass of savages (unless evil philosophy makes all of them evil): (This is a very important point the hi-fi have missed.) All societies have a graded structure of individuals of different characteristics, qualities, mental orientation and capabilities. Plato has called the divisions as Men of Gold, Silver and Bronze; Christianity has divided them into clergy, nobility and commoners / tradesmen; India’s Brahmins have 4 major castes, etc. Apart from individual heroes’ theories, politics is more determined by playing these social divisions against each-other and against the good. Direction of society is generally determined by the interplay of good and evil at the upper levels (Men of Gold and Silver, top 15% of society). Evil is distributed everywhere from top to bottom of the social pyramid; but intelligence varies from more at the top to so very low amongst the lowest strata that they can easily be misused for destruction by promoting collectivist theories via them like demanding doles, worship of primitive gods and religions, etc – which is what intelligent evil men at upper levels strive to do forever. The middle-classes support the good, but only till the tops keep bringing solutions to social problems – the moment the good fails to bring in solutions, as is the case in America after New Deal, evil taps the lowest strata to overturn rule of rationality. That lowest stratum has now become the solidly united DDVB of P, leaving only a small chance for recovery. Minorities (the evil ones amongst Plato’s Men of Gold and Silver) grabbing power is true of overwhelmingly major part of mankind’s history because they have never had good philosophy – in today’s America it would be because of default by hi-fi philosophers. Otherwise even in today’s democracy American Christian middle-classes, the most enlightened people on earth, could provide the numbers needed to stop America’s slide. Instead of solution GOP is using them as its vote-block for its vested interest, axing the base of America from the side opposite to Dems. Hi-fi not understood freedom of mind: ß this is the root of innumerable divisions amongst individualists, and inability of hi-fi to stop slide despite their “shining, latest, hi-fi philosophies” – and also the root of victory of evil. Extreme criticism about each-other and about Christianity shows that hi-fi people have neither understood implications of freedom of mind, nor what is real evil and how to tackle it. I have chosen Christians because apart from numbers they have many virtues stated all over this post. In reality it is necessary to unite all individualist-groups. If people accept my writing then I intend to ban even preaching Christianity via government despite freedom of speech (so as to undo the welfare state forever), which neither the FFs nor the new heroes of individualist-Americans could do, despite both intending to do so! Violating the FFs’ constitution is the real act of enmity, which both Dems and GOP are doing for a long time now. America was not defeated by original Marxism (blood-rivers variety), but via welfare state the whole communist agenda is in (and debt is ballooning beyond control)! Understanding the finer points of difference is key to the issue. The magnanimity of FFs’ Constitution is responsible for both, America’s greatness, as well as today’s unstoppable slide. It is important to block both, welfare state as well as induction of religion into government. American Christians are likely to accept rational argument, but not DDVB of P who may lead to collapse. Hi-fi experts too may not accept rational argument, rather their small-time ego needs that innovator be blocked! Further thoughts on why Christianity will continue, the future of small groups and their “hi-fi” philosophies, etc: O’ism, Austrian school etc are not mass-movements; Ayn Rand’s novels are anti-masses. But foolishly the O’ists assume that O’ism will sweep the earth. It is like expecting ordinary people to solve all problems in mathematics and surpass Einstein! Ayn Rand and Von Mises will both get their place in academics but sweeping the earth is monopoly of mass-philosophies like religion. (I owe everything to Ayn Rand but don’t go overboard about her status.) The mass of American individualists are necessary to sustain America; Ayn Rand’s novels too, including their anti-masses orientation, are necessary because the qualities she evokes in men are different from the masses – their peaceful co-existence and complementing each-others’ advantages is made possible by the FFs’ Constitution! To conclude: It is the ASPs who built America; it is they who will save her. When polarization is complete (may take decades if nothing changes the course) and mobs are on the streets, majority of hi-fi will desert. To save America it is merely necessary to restore the FFs’ constitution. For me “Long Live America” is a very serious quest because of my Hindu experiences. With my argument, it may take at the most a year for the change to occur. IMPORTANT à If anybody joins hands with me, they too can promote their group / endeavor while serving the highest cause of reclaiming America.

  9. SINGLE POST REPLY TO DIFFERENT FORUMS All are urged to read the site GOP anti-doles to refresh your idea about the difference between today’s govt and leaders versus the Founding Fathers (FFs) and their govt. keeping in mind it does not give GOP's negatives. Thanks Doug Bandler (Solop) – yours is the one single comment I have been looking for. I am not asking for bouquets and accolades in advance, but just some serious reading of a few pages – and I claim that America’s future can get changed with that. (But please remember that a small input has to be there of reading a few pages seriously which we will gradually develop in the coming days – saying this because people don’t read more than 1 page!) Response may take a bit of a time because of two reasons: 1. The internet service here is erratic due to heavy rains; 2. I don’t want to make a wrong post this time; it’s important for me at least. Regarding your reference about why Asians are so Democractic: please remember that the “hate American” phenomenon is universal, means hate America’s core values – they all want to derive all benefits from there and plus destroy those values. Americans don’t understand the nature of evil. This requires lot of writing which I am going to provide to you. You will be shocked to know reality – please wait and read seriously. To Darrell Hougen (OO): You are talking about training the doles dependent vote block of parasites (DDVB of P) that forced Stack / Romney to despair, “The people that you need to convert cant read at the level needed to even comprehend Rand”. See the problems about this approach in ascending order: 1.the vote-block is too big; 2. it does not intend to change but just wants doles; 3. it is being encouraged to be so because some people depend on its illiteracy to remain leaders, become Presidents. Note that whatever you are proposing, the Dems are already doing it since the days of Lyndon Johnson the analysis of whose political life I am going to supply you next – he (and other Dem-presidents) has no other ability but nurturing this vote-block since the days of FDR. I will give you a parallel example from India, the Dems are only a refined version of that – a rich European NGO came to a slum in my city. The slum-lord without whose permission nothing can be done there, has 3 wives (and god knows how many illegal ones). He simply suggested a solution: spend 10 -12% of your huge kitty on a few binges of food and cheap alcohol for the people you want to uplift; they will be happy because they don’t like to learn but consume. Divide remaining money into 2 parts, one for me, the other amongst all of you.” They said, “Ours is a long term project, we want to teach these illiterate people how to live etc”. He answered: “Bloody idiots! If these people improve where will I go? My huge money, leadership position, clout, boot-legging, everything depends on they being worms.” That is what the Dems are doing to America and I can prove it. Democracy facilitates such peoples’ victory – in fact it reduces politics to this level throwing better men out; the Founding Fathers (FFs) would be inefficacious and out of politics today, just as their constitution is. Your policy was implemented by Lyndon Johnson and is being strongly pursued till Obama – you will see the details in my next post and perhaps admit its futility. (This is the American over-generosity and I believe Jefferson to be the originator of this idea – OK, more if I get a hearing.) Bill Morgan on TPN: Civil war is not the main point, still …. If America continues along the same path of degeneration, ballooning debt etc (and very likely because there is no agency to affect a change, GOP being a contributor to debt / erosion) then there will surely be collapse / civil war. I could not even believe when I learnt of it belatedly that the Dems had invited the UN as referee in their fight with Conzs (i.e. in America’s internal matters, treason) and yet Obama got re-elected! Every evil power on earth will want to play a role in destroying America, it’s a universal quest. The Dems will continue using their vote-block to repetitively invite the UN i.e. Russia, China and Co against the AWMs. But such great rules and empires take long time, either to be erected or to be felled, and even now several decades (at least) are available for reclamation. (But if a game-changer is not introduced it will collapse.) I do not want to predict the final configuration which will depend on so many factors but “Christians” will surely be one of the parties being the original builders and educated majority – if they are able to successfully impose Founding Fathers’ (FF)-Govt, it may give a chance for revival – all of it depends on how things unfold. I will also give a post to show how civilizations rise and fall – America was an exception because of her greatness, but when civilization peaks she too will collapse. The main point is to not only avert a collapse / war, but to even stop today’s slide / loss, because of which I see so much despair all around, trumpeting of tea-parties, etc – solution is to go back to FFs’ govt, but to achieve even the smallest progress the AWms have to unite over some key points, learn to avoid getting divided, all of which I am targeting. Note that America is merely getting destroyed by uncivilized savages who have nothing of value to offer – 5 sets of emancipated people I listed elsewhere (not merely erst-while slaves), illegal immigrants, the trash at the bottom of society, all of them aptly described by Stack in OP – and America was the greatest country, as I said, the climax of rational man’s aspirations for civilization. As to Objectivist Party – it is unviable because O’ism is not common man’s philosophy and it has its negatives I have described elsewhere. That they are unable to maintain any unity amongst their miniscule numbers is mainly because they are unable to make any contribution to solving democracy’s problems, so like all other AWMs they too fight over trivia. For example see their stance on two big issues of today: 1. Racism -- Huge state concessions, special treatment to so-called “weak” minorities (like affirmative action), all in contravention to “equality in front of law”, is neglected by O’ists; all savage acts perpetrated by them despite special concessions (like the savagery that followed Trayvon Martin judgment described on all Tea Party sites), is neglected by the O’ists. Same with Aztalan, Le Reza, Sotomayor etc. AWMs was the smear coined and used by Dems for years together against GOP and TPM – but as soon as I used it (to take the wind out of it) I became a racist and this OP was not allowed on two ARI-Ditto-Head forums! 2. I read an essay on immigration by one of their eminent scholars – he has listed all of immigrants’ positives, but not a single –ve, as if they are saints and America’s future depends only on them, but no –ves. One single question will blast his thesis – Why do people migrate to particular locations, why only to West from rest of the world and not the other way round? Because the host country also has huge virtues (apart from some –ves) which the migrants do not have. Once the migrants become even an appreciable minority (not even a majority), they become a head-ache, do not admit the virtues of the host country and their own -ves, think they are superior and the natives are inferior, and gradually but imperceptibly want to impose their inferior “way of life” on to the host country – I can expand on this a lot, but deferred. The above 2 issues have contributed hugely to the erosion of America, and O’ism has only nonsense views about them. For the Libertarians Ayn Rand’s books are just a symbol that unites them against the Dems, nothing more. What is needed to save America is a modification of Protestant religion or entire Christianity (because Catholics too are quite close these days) for the layman AWM because today existing Christianity is insufficient due to weaknesses like charity misused by Dems. It was a unique religion but some key change (minor but very important) which I claim to know as the ultimate compelling argument, is necessary to energize it again, which is what I mean by uniting the AWMs to reclaim America. That is what I mean above by a Protestants imposing FF-Govt. Anyway, repeating again – if you give a sincere thought to my next posts you will know more – ther is a page titled “Difference between Protestant and other Religions.”
  10. CAN CHRISTIANITY, JOHN LOCKE, VON MISES, AYN RAND OR ANY COMBINATION SAVE AMERICA? This post is shortened to the extent possible. But the link to its longer version is given at the end, please note. Introduction: This topic was inspired by a good discussion on the Tea Party Patriot site titled Can Ayn Rand Save US? (Can Ayn Rand?). McFixit and Stack Magic have together given exact reasons why the above mentioned people / theories are not the solution to democracy’s problems. They are partly reproduced as required below. Part of Stack Magic’s reply: They won! They put 53% of the nation on welfare and tell them to vote Bolshevik or the gravy stops. Mitt said it, you can't win against that. Part of next reply by Stack Magic: The people that you need to convert can’t read at the level needed to even comprehend Rand. Part Reply by McFixit1 How has Atlas Shrugged had a positive impact in the real world on our cause to return to Constitutionally Limited Government, Fiscal Responsibility, and Free Markets other than repeating in literary form, the same basic things to us we already believe in. Unquote McFixit1 hits the bull’s eye, endorsed by Ayn Rand ahead. Stack repeating Romney’s “one cannot beat the block of doles dependent parasites created by Dems” is only the minor part of the problem; the bigger part is with “better Americans” as explained ahead. (Some deny that there is such a severe problem with America; that is answered in the longer version.) Start of the Problem: We are just witnessing America repeating the collapse of Rome. Based on history the root of this historic problem is in not locking the Republic securely against majority as the arbiter of truth and against the competition to get majority to one’s side by offering doles. Heroes emancipate people from tyrants. Inability to secure the Republic correctly leads to its degeneration into democracy. The lowest level people like beggars, addicts, uneducated labor, pimps and prostitutes, hippies of modern times etc are used by the evil people to undo heroes’ achievements. They create Romney’s unbeatable vote-block by reducing politics to the level of intelligence of lowest stratum by offering ever-increasing doles and other tricks. Once given doles, they vote as the masters tell to promote every other irrationality. Destroying America starts with this (and it was the same with Rome). I do not call any particular political party or a particular politician as culprit. Democracy based on majority as arbiter of truth compels them to compete along this path alone. The “Better Americans” and their problems: My estimate of the doles vote-block is about 30%. What about the remaining 70% “better Americans”, i.e. productive, educated people who practice individualism and the ones whose fore-fathers created America out of wilderness? I have also called them as AWMs (angry white men) after GOP being called so. Their big problem is that they misuse democracy’s freedom to divide themselves into innumerable groups, like the continuous breaking of O’ists / Libertarians / TP Movement and many other ‘conservative’ groups. Each of these umpteen groups has 5-10 sub-groups and every sub-group considers itself to be perfect and all others to be its enemies. Opposing view-points is natural in a free society – but the level of enmity that I see amongst AWMs is perhaps the most important cause for US hurtling towards the abyss. Unless all these divisions act together, I don’t think America can any more be saved. Problem is – they may never do so. The strong internal “enmity” of these factions is the reason why people are talking about the gradual demise of the GOP! That enmity also ensures victory of evil. One more problem: democracy is a fertile ground for moral degeneration; the component of dishonest men keeps rising as time progresses. Individuals are too very weak in democracy; this promotes collectivism and hastens collapse. Why Christianity, Locke, Ayn Rand, Von Mises will not save America: The FFs (Founding Fathers) did not originate theory for America. Apart from any good scholar of politics the site GOP anti-doles gives lot of information about America’s dependence on Greece and Rome via the English; qualification is that this site does not give GOP’s contribution to today’s slide which one has to study separately. Despite being devout Christians, perhaps the greatest achievement of the FFs (next to unalienable rights of the individual) was the first amendment, keeping religion out of government. If today’s Christians want a “Christian rule” via many issues like gay marriage and school prayers then they are not opposing the Dems, but partnering them in giving last blows to FFs’ America. Still, the FFs did not give up one effect of religion – charity. In fact, even today the ASPs compete to do charity. So they are unable to effectively oppose their government dispensing doles nationally and internationally. John Locke did not preach the subservience of the individual to the majority. But if misused then the potential to convert the Republic to democracy is seen in John Locke. All the Founding Fathers (FFs) cursed democracy as sure-shot destroyer of civilization, but nobody could tie the Republic securely and today it is a full-fledged mobocracy that is fast proceeding to collapse. Regarding Ayn Rand, as McFixit says: What is there in Atlas Shrugged that we did not already know? Ayn Rand gave a super-refined ethics, and some new addition to epistemology. Her artistic genius has influenced millions; but some people (wrongly) think she has brought solution to America’s problems. McFixit is endorsed by Ayn Rand -- quote from her article “Man’s Rights” about Founding Fathers’ (FFs’) implementation of individual rights – The result was the pattern of a civilized society which – for the brief span of some hundred and fifty years – America came close to achieving. Unquote. America was built prior to her birth; as per her the decline started before she was born (1890 Anti-trust act), and America continues hurtling today with far greater speed than during her time. An indirect endorsement is that the Roman Republic had coarser philosophy and ethics but was much stronger and lived a long life; it started failing on same lines as America, due to Republic converting into democracy, plebeians taking it over after doles-duistribution, war-mongering leading to huge debt, etc. Same applies to Von Mises who approaches politics, psychology etc via his refined economics. But much prior to him, 19th century America was the most capitalistic society in human history. Forget others, Adam Smith’s seminal essay came out just prior to the Revolution! He and Voltaire were consulted by the FFs. Von Mises’ refined economics is not the solution to today’s America. (Same applies to ethics). All these did not secure the Republic against 2 points: Majority as arbiter of truth and government violating its limits allowed by the Constitution. The impotent, immoral, UN, though funded by the West, routinely slaps them internationally, and is invited in internal matters in violation of America’s sovereignty! But the climax is that Obama who invited the UN was re-elected, a proof that all the above theories have made no difference to America’s slide. The government can be taken back to FFs’ idea of America if the AWMs are given good reasoning against 2 points: 1. Governance by majority opinion is not a civilized society, unalienable rights for which the founders shed their blood, is a guarantee against majority’s fickleness. 2. As per mankind’s history so far, government expanding its activities beyond the ones allowed by the FFs’ Constitution (under the pretext of welfare etc) is the highest evil in human societies, so should be unitedly fought against. Individualism and a strictly restrained government were America’s fundamental aspects and if these are undone then it will eventually lead to civil war. What will come in the way of going back to FFs’ government are the solid parasite vote-block (DDVB of P) and its leaders. As Stack says, any good theory is irrelevant to them. All that they want is heaps of doles, and as argument they say fxxx your so-called heroes but give me my doles. It is enmity amongst AWMs that ensures their victory. They have almost as good as to be put down by force. America has reached a stage where collapse / civil war are inevitable. (This is the reason why Locke, Ayn Rand and Von Mises are not working, and solution is wanted to this aspect, not ever-refined theories of ethics, economics etc. They are all addressing the same group, the AWMs, which gets divided over whom to follow; but none is saying what to do with the huge vote-block that needs to be put down by force.) One last way to stop the slide and avert civil war is to warn about it and if that does not work then civil war is only a matter of time. Yet America can still be recovered if the AWMs act in unison instead of the foolish internal enmity. What I mean to say is that whether they want to avert civil war, or win it if it is inevitable, either way they have to unite over certain key points even while preserving their differences. Contentious Points (that divide the AWMs): This is dealt with in the longer version of this file. An example is given of how I can join hands with the most devout, staunchest Christian provided he observes scrupulously the first amendment – it gives the basis for the AWMs to join hands. If I get a chance (i.e. a just peaceful, serious hearing and nothing more) I have the arguments to achieve both the points above (stopping government’s charity and governance based on majority opinion). I have the ultimate compelling argument against the above 2 evils that will unite the AWMs to stop it! A major mobilization is already available, the tea-parties – will they give me a chance by considering my arguments seriously, or will it be lost merely in trivial “discussions” that go on on the forums? For me “Long Live America” is a very serious quest because of my Hindu experiences. I do not see time as a big problem, may take at the most a year for the change to occur – I see attitude as the biggest hurdle that may defeat any good argument. An argument that deals with so very big a problem (America being taken over by lower strata of society led by evil intellectuals) can only be long and people do not like long posts. There will also be detractors, but if some people show interest then I will present my arguments in another OP titled “Argument to stop the government from dispensing doles and ban anybody from preaching charity via government”.

  11. Brant has substantially stated what I want to say, thanks. I understand each has to act for himself, also do his bit -- but few things about it: 1. all men are not equally capable and leaders are needed to lead them; 2. leaders may be highly capable, but need good people from society to back them, to accomplish their vision; 3. each acting on his own in his individual issues is a must, but in social issues if they all really acted on their own they would simply facilitate victory of evil; they have to unite under the most rational leadership / philosopher. Therefore the question can Ayn Rand play that role, or who will? Anyway, the OP is just an opening piece telling my intent to post the real article on this topic. I am attempting an article to unite all those diverse groups whose face-off with each other is facilitating victory of evil. Till then I will not talk more.
  12. People on many forums are talking about migrating from America, not into; are talking about dividing America into Red and Blue states; are talking about the impending civil war, secession and giving up the dollar, etc – the title of the OP is an OP by another poster on Tea Party site that evoked good response. It’s not all my empty talk. Obama is not the problem, democracy is, welfare state now turning into communism, war-mongering etc is, to which there is no solution because it has so far eluded proper identification / description. I am working on formulating the problem properly. Part of the solution consists of “some basic 'denominator' which all groups have in common, and (I will) take it from there.” To answer about Founding Fathers’ achievement, whip-driven slaves, Wahabists etc – From “Man’s Rights” by Ayn Rand, what she says about Founding Fathers’ implementation of individual rights – The result was the pattern of a civilized society which – for the brief span of some hundred and fifty years – America came close to achieving. Unquote. That is how the Founding Fathers helped in creating America long after they were dead, and that is how those people on Tea Party are discussing whether Ayn Rand can save the US.
  13. While I had decided to post a comment on the OP titled "Can Ayn Rand Save US?" on Tea Party Patriots site, I introduced myself on the Tea-Party Nation Forum as a man who adopted American values because of Ayn Rand's novels. After a longish silence I got following as the first reply: Rand was very popular here about 50 years ago but is not really discussed much anymore. You're the first person I seen mention her in over a year. Much more popular in the US is the Austrian School of economics. Unquote. Finally, I replied as follows: Thanks again. One thing I have experienced on all forums I visit is the irreconcilable enmity that each group has towards other groups; and it is not just one group towards another, but 100 small groups, each of them considering most others to be their big enemies. Opposing view-points is natural in a free society granting freedom of thought and expression – but the level of enmity that I see amongst better men in US is not good for the nation, and I see this as one of the two most important causes for US hurtling towards the abyss. Though I came from Ayn Rand’s side, there too there are 10 groups amongst their miniscule numbers, and you almost have to be a robot to belong to a group, taking enmity with several others – else you are an outsider to all of them. (The first important cause for the US getting destroyed is the solid doles-dependent vote-block that evil men have built by offering freebies, and that acts in unison to get passed every anti-America law. This block, and the communism it has taken into the White House, is in reality the main enemy of better Americans; but the better men foolishly consider each other to be their biggest enemies!) Also: Though I became Pro-America because of Ayn Rand’s novels, I am not that robot-parasite type of objectivist who considers her to be a goddess. America was built prior to her birth (which means by some other philosophy they oppose / look down upon), had started deteriorating before she was born (she considered the date to be 1890 anti-trust act), and continues hurtling today – so she is obviously not the solution to America’s problems; but I cannot say this on those forums. Apart from several Libertarian and Christian groups, even Tea-partiers are deeply divided with the lines of division running into every state, town and street! I have some writing which criticizes all these groups of better Americans for these divisions, but several negative points are brought out with Objectivists as the example though they are also applicable to all other groups. Unless all these divisions act together, I don’t think America can any more be saved. I am working on the way they can join hands (while preserving their differences) and take America back to the days of Founding Fathers, but with new knowledge acquired after 1776. In the coming days I shall present my writing on these forums for peoples’ evaluation – let’s see if it can achieve the task. Temporarily I am starting a new OP as above, but will complete it asap. Do members have opinion on it?
  14. MSK: I got response of being unfriendly to the reader from two other sites. On giving a thought the following history came to my mind – I wrote a book titled “Anglo Saxon Protestant Revolution” (ASP-R) which got criticism that was substantially unwarranted. So I started a Prologue to it which ended in the book “Is Democracy the Nemesis of the ASPs?” and while uploading it on various forums I visit I got the news (much after the happening) that Obama invited the UN into internal matters of the US, like the monkey between the two fighting cats (he specifically invited UN against the Conservatives, i.e. ‘angry white men’!) I thought this was the last leg of US’ fall even if it may be stretched for decades. So I changed the Introduction of the 2nd book (during the process of uploading) and used the words whites, blacks etc in the new Intro. Now there are 1-2 sites that I categorized as ARI-Ditto-heads, almost no independent thinking and parrot even blunders of ARI self-righteously. They have the habit of ganging up against the ones who are not Ditto-heads, never any appreciation of good points but strong criticism of even minor points, etc. They too are useful – you know where you are wrong, or where even false criticism will come from. They strongly called me a racist, offered Peikoff’s book OP as masterpiece explaining how the mind of a racist works ….. etc. So I wrote another piece saying that politicians use every available tool to grab power in democracy (which continuously kills rationality leading to collapse), and race too will be strongly used in America; generally this was to justify my usage of words thought of as racial, wherein I said to compare American ASPs with Nazis would take a depraved mind because of ASPs’ strong individualism and magnanimity. All this was done over a period of 2 – 3 months. Since I was the author, it was well-connected in my mind, but definitely the reader would lose continuity and context if posted as different parts after a long gap. I missed this point, so at 2 – 3 places they gave MSK-like response. On the other hand on one Libertarian site it led to a long discussion because there was no discontinuity but the 2 posts were one OP. My dilemma is that I want comments, but entire books if uploaded are neglected as too long – and when posted as separate pieces this is what happened; (even these small pieces become too long on net discussions, others said that like Brant here). So I had withdrawn for some thinking (and the minor reason is that the comments to the OP became Jews vs non-Jews). I think I will now upload most of the book after giving it a small revision (1-2 months). Those who have the patience will read, others will not, that’s all that is possible. But no malice for your comment, the mistake is basically due to the situation described above. Marketing will be the real problem -- anybody has any advice?
  15. This discussion has deviated from the original intent of the post, so I am just answering the comments I find to be significant for the OP: FuturistNow and Serapis Bey: Write-up is poorly organized, needs work. Response: Sorry that I did not mention, but it is a continuation of another OP of mine “Intro to Democracy as Nemesis of ASPs”, just 1 step below this one on the same forum. MSK: I only skimmed this article, but there is a fundamental flaw I kept seeing repeated. Did anyone actually read this thing? Response: This is the biggest problem. There is so much of misunderstanding about racism in America, and it is being misused to the hilt by the Dems as part of their “destruction of America via welfare-state” agenda. The OP is meant to rectify the misunderstanding, BUT: Did anyone actually read this thing? With the necessary seriousness? The atmosphere the Dems have created is so very simple: anybody touching the topic from side of rationality is damned and blackened in advance, without inquiry / study. And I being a foreigner without any name / standing am not likely to get any attention. MSK’s other comment: I do not see racism per se, is the only sensible comment I have seen so far on any boards I visit – today to even utter words ASPs, whites etc so as to even study facts immediately bring a load of huge charges of racism and murder is what has stunned me. One becomes a criminal without hearing!!! After all Brant too said: Not reasonable to read too long stuff Reason Man! FuturistNow: Do ASPs exist anymore? Ethnicity is very temporary in politics, etc. Response: Very likely that you have not read the write-up, so I see no point in commenting or answering. BaalChatzaf and the Jewish line: Response: Jews were scattered all over the earth (including my state Maharashtra, and another Kerala in India, even to this day there is an exchange of literature and culture between these states and Israel), they were forced into trading and professions, that being considered lowly prior to Rennaissance / modernity. Like all “trading communities” they have done more +ve things, but also a few –ves like supporting the Bolsheviks, all from point of view of self-interest. BUT – even upto 1945 their position in a more ‘advanced’ Europe was what ultimately climaxed into Hitler’s hatred. It was the Anglo Saxons who gave them the platform to flourish – that is what this OP is all about, please see carefully. Like all other rational men, their contribution to humanity would have been unborn. Comments about Jews on this post seem to be more towards racism / ethnicism.
  16. Why the choice of words Anglo Saxons, White-man and Whites Please take efforts to read this and see where you "whites" stand. After expanding the above Introduction from one page to more than six pages due to Obama’s invitation to UN in US elections, I offered it on the net forums for comments. A few people agreed enthusiastically that the Left has been targeting for some time now mainly the ASP male for his loyalty to individualism and rationality; a few others also agreed but said that they were taken aback by the words ASPs and whites. But the major attack, that I was a racist came from some Objectivists whom their opponents call as ARI Ditto-heads. (There are many opposing groups within O’ists, umpteen times more amongst Libertarians; Nicknames are common and used even to trash others’ good points. As per information given to me, the arguments below are representative of most ASPs who as per me are taking huge beating because of these ideas. My intent on the forums has always been to learn from wrong ideas, and never go into ego-problems.) So I asked “Why are special names like Af-Ams, El Raza etc allowed to minorities, why are they not only Americans, and when the word whites is used it becomes racist?” One person declared “Racist, you don’t have place here!” But the major response came as a slap which became the main argument: Quote The reason that the allegations have occurred only when the words white, A-S, etc are used because you have been using them and they deserve to be attacked. Collectivism is collectivism. The reason why Af-Ams, and other groups are "allowed" to identify and associate by their race is something called individual rights. They do so freely, that is their right, and the consequences are their problem not mine. What you are advocating is far worse and is a morally treasonous approach, that is: If they can be racist why can't I? A second-hander to second-handers. You are dispensing with your own mind and depending specifically on the unreason of others to form your own position on the subject. I referenced Nazi Germany because it obviously refutes your methodology and is well documented both in terms of concrete details and essential ideas. See, Leonard Peikoff's book: The Ominous Parallels. That is a great example of how history actually works. Unquote Every sentence of this quote is revealing and worth studying, and let’s do so. (Please note that I already have a 26 page sub-article titled ‘Racism’ in the book; most of the following is addition to it. Many points like Reverse Racism, Backlash etc referred to below are explained in more detail there. The present sub-article had to be hastily added because of strong allegations of racism consequent to my need to use words white-man, whites etc after learning late about Obama’s UN invitation.) What are Nazis? Nothing special, “Collectivism is Collectivism” is used against me but actually applies to them. In collectivism a special ‘ruler-elite’ is always there, whether identified or not – Brahmins, Padres, Plato’s men of gold, Ulema, Communist Commissars etc. Their collectivist theories are just a means to enslave society – though Nazis were racists still they required socialism as base (National Socialists), and all other Germans were only to execute the orders of the Nazi elite around the ‘superman’ Fuehrer. What did they do or give to the world? Same thing that is going on for thousands of years – loot, enslave, murder, destroy. It is not true that everything (i.e. ideas and concretes) are well documented about them alone – Theories and doings of Dark Ages, Islam, Brahmins, commies, every variant of “Collectivism is Collectivism” are the same as what Plato has detailed in The Republic, only a correct analyst / interpretor is needed to analyze. In fact it may surprise Americans if I quote from the sub-article ‘Racism’ ahead – Quote Capturing other tribes and races as slaves was not only Greco-Roman custom, it was a way of life all over the earth. Therefore the Brahmins in India, who have been calling themselves as ‘gods on earth’, adored Hitler, celebrated his initial victories and established an organization like his (which is very active even in North America and intends to repeat his doings)! (Many westerners may not have heard of Brahmanvaad, but Nietzsche, Hitler’s idol, was an ardent admirer who knew Brahmins’ theories of ‘rights and duties’ based on racial gradation very well! They were mutual admirers.) And as said all along, genocide based on race is common in Africa even today. Unquote Nazism was never anything special except for the latest science, military techniques etc that it employed for destruction; “Collectivism is Collectivism”. Not only the above ‘mutual admiration’, and similarities like Swastika, but commentators have claimed that most theory of Aryan superiority was developed after taking the base from India where it is being practiced for 2500 to 3000 years. For the ditto-heads’ information, that is how old their ‘brand new theory’ is, that all people including Greeks and Romans were practitioners of similar racism. As shown below, racism is just an ancient variation of collectivism, but has been projected as some sort of a separate “higher evil”, a scare-crow, especially to gag the Anglo Saxons against socialism (the welfare state) promoted from behind other races in America. Now let us ask the question what are the ASPs, what they brought into and gave to the world? Referring to the century following the American Revolution (because today they are substantially eroded due to Reverse Racism against them): THE ASPs WHO FOUNDED AMERICA WERE UNIQUE IN THE ENTIRE HISTORY OF MANKIND – THERE NEVER WAS A NATION AS MAGNANIMOUS, AS BENEVOLENT AS AMERICA! WHAT THEY GAVE, NOT ONLY TO THEMSELVES, BUT TO ENTIRE MANKIND (IF IT DESERVES IT) WAS THE DECLARATION OF INALIENABLE RIGHTS OF AN INDIVIDUAL, THE ONLY MEANS TO BE MAN THE RATIONAL BEING. This is so very unique that majority of mankind including many ‘developed’ Europeans have not understood it even today, are unable to deal with the new phenomenon; leave alone the ‘undeveloped’ people of the world, even Europeans with their Louis and Bonapartes, Bismarcks, Hitlers and Czars would have just been destroying each other, inventing more destructive weapons. All that they understand out of it is democracy (and America too has eroded into the same muck of democracy.) The ASPs too originally started with ancient slavery that is even today going on the world over (with the African as typical slave carried a thousand years back by the Arabs even to places like India) – but they soon emancipated them, set up funds for their upliftment, even tried to resettle them in Liberia, and have heaped huge largesse of socialistic welfare on them. I have already talked about 5 sets of people emancipated by the ASPs at the start of Introduction. Whosoever on earth is free today owes at least some part of it to the Anglo Saxons! (All these are decribed ahead as never-before-never-after happenings; no other community has ever done this in man-kind’s history, and perhaps nobody ever will.) The world has unbelievably changed, in fact not after the American Revolution, but the British Empire itself because English theories were the root of American Revolution. (The sub-article titled “Inheritance -- An Important Factor ...” explains about slavery, racism etc overlapping with the initial years of American Republic.) All people giving up their countries to migrate to America are specifically doing so because of that culture. Many other people made individual contributions but they would have remained unborn like during dark ages. Now consider what the world gave back to the two sides. In this regard the Nazis were short-lived, immediately got defeated (and only in such minor aspects they are different from others), but they still got the standard response from the world within their limited short span prior to defeat. The real returns are seen to the priests, the ‘idealists’ who authored the theories of collectivism -- they were wroshipped as gods for finishing off mankind, in India the tradition was that ‘untouchables’ and ladies had to wash feet of the Brahmins and drink that water as pious! Even today priests of all religions continue to be ‘moral authorities’, continuing to be gods in more undeveloped places. What did the ASPs get in return? Unexceptionally everybody looks at them as Satan’s Land, as looters of earth, as racists and enslavers (unbelievable, but the world’s idea of racism is just limited to considering white man, particularly the American, the emancipator, as racist, so also about freedom, enlightenment and everything good – he is the epitome of evil! As said above, racism has to be specifically mentioned because it is newly artificially blown up to gag the ASPs.) To repeat an idea from Introduction: All over the earth minorities are persecuted victims and are at a disadvantage. With America it is the opposite – it is the majority community that is being subjected to huge injustice! (I have called it as Reverse Racism). What we see in the above returns to priests as originators of evil collectivist theories versus returns to the ASPs is an inversion that those who killed mankind were worshipped, while those who did good are thoroughly hated. In terms of returns to individuals I have explained in this book the above returns as ‘the established norm’; throw dirt at the benefactor, kill him, lynch him because, as a rational individual, he is not going to hit back. This is how individual men were lynched, burned, flayed and hacked during the dark ages all over the earth and heroes like Galileo paid for bringing glory to man. Many in Europe (like Ibsen and others) projected this as ‘one man versus society’ fights; it’s good description is in ‘The Fountainhead’. In plain language it is just Hatred of the good for being the good. This anti-life behavior, loyalty to irrationality built into men is the reason for total stagnation of mankind for thousands of years, no advance in knowledge, no improvement, poverty, open injustices, killing, looting and murder. If the above is the treatment given to an individual then it can also be done on group basis – traders as a group have faced it throughout history, but they have never come into prominence because there have always been some traders who have compromised, accepted lowly position and continued serving mankind. (In India the traders were part of the sinners club (paap-yoni) along with ladies and untouchables – everywhere else they were treated so even if not designated as sinners. Jews have been victimized and persecuted all over the earth for the specific reason that historically traders as a group have been as close to rationality as allowed by the rulers of societies. But note one peculiar fact—though Indian traders were ‘sinners’ as per religion and were freed by the British, yet they continue to be loyal to Hinduism (i.e. its rulers), and nurture critical attitude against the British! Even in America today they covertly maintain an anti-western attitude, and though they are not outright terrorists, yet are the main source of fund for the above mentioned pro-Hitler party. That same is the case with a huge portion of mankind, which I use as a major basis for deriving my theory that the emancipated later on defeat the emancipators! The group that has come into prominence due to this treatment, because it has never bowed down so far, is the Anglo Saxons as a nation, the Americans. But still, even if not bowing down yet they too have not faced the phenomenon as well as desired, and therefore have suffered huge demoralization and erosion in their society, are on an unstoppable slide to abyss. Today, America is facing the same phenomenon of hatred of the good for being the good from the entire remaining earth! Its almost universal, but the special place they have gathered to practice this hatred officially is the United Nations under whose auspices the evil has a higher footing than the good. (So much is America eroded that they took lead in forming these institutions and are funding and trying to use them for a combination of spreading democracy as well as East India Co activities! And now the monster wants to enter their country!) And more – the Anglo Saxons are facing that hatred from within their society too, the phenomenon has slowly gathered momentum after the civil rights movement (or perhaps the New Deal) and the haters have already appreciably nurtured the ‘minorities’ to finish off the spirit of the Anglo Saxons and their loyalty to rationality. (This is on relative basis and in sense of life terms – in terms of conscious philosophy America is substantially finished and already degenerated into the welfare state and plutocracy.) The above hatred of the good for being the good is the end-product of thousands of years of collectivist theories being imposed on mankind (i.e. pounding of brother-love, unselfishness, charity etc has made them so.) The respect and worship of the murderous rulers was mainly out of fear and awe, because they murder. The men under them have learnt to respect fear and punishment, and hate achievement, reward and life. That is the main reason why the ASPs got such a response – that they are rational achievers, are benevolent, are conscientious, are not murderers, killers and looters. Against the above hatred of good for being the good, the Anglo Saxons introduced the opposite emotion in human relationships – admiration of and encouragement to the good! It is not fully rational, but substantially more than other communities that are driven by malevolence, as close to full rationaliy as mankind has ever reached. (Note that this is not only a few individuals’ virtue; overall their community is virtuous, is motivated by benevolence and magnanimity. If somebody wants he may call this as racist, but actually it is just fact of reality, and he is a hater. Otherwise science, literature, production would not have got boost, we would have still been in Dark Ages.) The community of ASPs is benevolent because their philosophy is reality oriented. (To be exact it is Aristotelian, but today many Americans do not understand this fact due to erosion). Their success and superiority is consequent to that. They not only created science, technology, production etc, but – created pro-science, pro-life sentiment, benevolence, magnanimity and mutual goodwill. Others not only lack science, production etc, but are malevolent, anti-life people who hate rational success. Hating rationality is an automatic part of their life, part of their emotional make, consequent to their basic anti-Aristotelian philosophy, whether religion, communism, socialism – or plain passivity towards life. These collectivist philosophies produce haters of the good on mass scale. This is a characteristic related with the philosophies underlying their upbringing. Their philosophies may be evil and not the men intrinsically, yet after infusion of these philosophies during upbringing, a lot of these men do become evil. For them science, production etc are no value, destruction is, getting free doles at the cost of others is value, dishonesty etc are motivators. Defeating rationality is their most important value and motivator, automatically because, they realize subconsciously that rationality is a product of ego which they are hammered in is the most evil thing on earth. Even if all are not actively evil, yet they are covert supporters of evil and irrationality. With these people goodwill does not work – they will misuse it; take advantage to destroy the one who offers it. (The Boston Marathon Bombers of April 2013, the Tsarnaev brothers are a good example of this – 10 years of good life in US, scholarships etc did not change them! But all of them will not necessarily take that drastic action – majority may take only minor actions like ‘voting’ for defeat of rationality in elections, i.e. voting against individualism and for welfare-state, for unlimited immigration, etc.) Ditto-heads may argue: all such men are not bad, and despite evil theories of upbringing, modernity also has an effect on them, so some of them are good, or partially good – the question is how far should the benevolent community take chance with them? To what extent should the benevolent community get its social standards eroded, the way it is happening in the US? Net inference: There is a class of men (today called as ‘undeveloped’, backward etc) to whom benevolence should be offered only conditionally and with restrictions and caution – else they will defeat the emancipator. Large groups of men come under this category, whether formed on religious, racial-ethnic or some other basis – example of last is that at some stage of erosion of social standards, the poor of a benevolent society (ASPs) may get attracted to communism by slow degrees known as welfare state! This matter about encouragement to versus hatred of the good is not a minor matter to be exchanged and forgotten. America’s slide in domestic politics (and demoralization due to opposition on international stage) is generally due to the above hatred of the ASPs by others, and the fate of their country is quite dependent on this matter. Because of their pro-life philosophy, the ASPs lack knowledge of evil, but another thing I experienced is that their arrogance comes in the way of accepting this lack, and instead they continue to suffer losses (and erode) at the hands of evil. (Note that white is a confusing word, covering far more than Americans; the Brothers Tsarnaev too were white. But it has also become a symbol of hatred all over the earth mainly representing the American whites, followed by the Europeans. So I have only used it as that symbol of American ASP values. Please keep this in mind about the use of words whites and white-man.) Now, a question from the point of view of the haters: how to kill this benevolent, magnanimous Anglo Saxon ‘way of life’? For that democracy is enough. The thesis of this book (indicated by its very title) is that finally the emancipated people are used to destroy their emancipators – like the plebeians did to Rome mainly for the sake of doles, and which is what will happen in America. Democracy being based on sheer numbers, i.e. lowest strata of society eventually reduces every good society to that level of intelligence and life. While Part I and Part II of this book describe how majority was pursued to substantially destroy America (Worship of Majority being part of the title of Part I), here the important point is how the Democractic Party strongly used race to nurture Af-Ams as a vote-block and for that purpose built the scare-crow of Nazism against the Anglo-Saxons. Nurturing the black vote-block: If the Anglo Saxons were left to themselves (i.e. if they really were racists like the Romans who did not allow non-Romans in their affairs), they would have survived for longer period of time than Romans because of lessons learnt from Greek, Roman and other histories, higher rationality of the ASPs etc, and this would have given them more time to get a solution to democracy. On the other hand what weakens them to fall faster than Romans is – other groups / races whose strong but sub-consciously practiced way of life is opposite of Anglo Saxon individualism, which means the ASPs’ magnanimity has been used against them! To expose this is the main reason to bring race into this discussion – it is not to insult some races. (There are other uses of studying races too). It is the GOP that emancipated the Af-Ams, or rather the relatively more rational ASPs fought with relatively less ones (the Democrats), who as original racists ran the KKK even after Civil War, segregation, tooth and nail opposition to emancipation etc – BUT – who later on saw that this mass of emancipated people can be used to grab power and who now “own” this vote-block by almost killing America. The New Deal bonanza is what attracted the Af-Ams to the Dems (prior to which they were loyal to GOP), and they got stuck to the party with the Democratic Platform of 1960 because of its shocking super-communist idea of rights of man. As I have shown ahead, this may even take America to Civil War. The blacks now vote 95+% for the Dems specifically for undermining those very ideas (individualism, capitalism etc) the ditto-heads pretend to defend and say this is merely their individual right and not a movement of destruction purposefully encouraged! As per the ditto-heads, 95% voting to one party is not being on one side of argument (with a few exceptions on the other side), but being divided on both sides of the argument. Exceptions: Note that there will always be exceptions on both sides, good and bad; after all groups of millions of people cannot be without exceptions – example, the less than 5% Af-Ams who either did not vote or voted Republican are only the exception that prove the rule and not a division of vote amongst the two parties. So also some whites may be actual racists and may misuse the situation to inflict injustice – a good society should punish them, but these few exceptions do not invalidate this entire analysis. In the sub-article on Racism I have quoted two black writers, Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams. Williams says, “The welfare state did to the blacks what slavery could not do, that is to destroy the black family”. (Of-course those writers being of repute, beyond reach, and black, ditto-heads will not call them as racists for using the word ‘blacks’ the way they pounced upon me.) I have shown with good argument that as part of nurturing Af-Ams as their vote-block the Democrats have destroyed the black family, have addicted them to drugs, have criminalized them, made them parasites dependent on ever-increasing doles – but the final end is to destroy the Anglo Saxon for being the bearer of rationality. Means I have not called blacks as evil, but somebody else has criminalized them, which the ditto-heads don’t allow me to analyze and expose properly. Same process of building vote-block is now being repeated with the other (bigger) ‘minority’ who even run race based separatist anti-US organizations like La Raza (the Race) – and as per the ditto-heads this is only their individual rights, but identifying it makes one a Nazi! (I have given examples of this happening since the days of Lyndon Johnson, the case of Justice Sonia Sotomayor where the GOP had to shut their mouth because of ‘vote value’ and Dems exercising Reverse Racism against them, etc). Reverse Racism: One special tool the Dems have developed is what I have called as Reverse Racism. I have described it at length in the sub-article on Racism ahead, but its brief description is as follows: Reverse Racism has two sides – continuously increase the doles of the “weak” community under various heads – e.g. free food, social security, schooling, medicine and even naming parks, memorials, etc to increase their “prestige”; underplay or almost neglect their vices, and if somebody dares to mention it, attack him strongly as racist. The other side of the coin is to continuously attack the “stronger” community under various heads – they are selfish, egoist, heartless people who created the problem of slavery; declare strict implementation of rational rules (to make the minorities observe law) as racism; declare every mention of their virtues including the fact that they are emancipators, as racism. (One more instance of this is ‘white male privilege’ referred to below). Create special name for some Americans as Af-Ams, but as soon as one utters Anglo Saxon or white American, declare him to be a Nazi! As part of nurturing the vote-block promote and encourage, some even by tax money, NAACP, BET, Black Music Awards, Black Beauty Contests, Black Day, Black Month etc; neglect the anti-America activities of La Raza, a specifically race based organization of Hispanics. That is: Reverse Racism consists of a massive, hundred percent interchanging of vices and virtues (described in the book), with an eye on vote-bank. A comparison of incidences I have described in my sub-article on Racism is as follows: In 2012 there was news about Mitt Romney talking about his ASP roots in Britain, special relationship etc, but the next minute he denied so as to save himself from the haters. (This relationship is more than 100 years old, but the phenomenon of Reverse Racism against ASPs has come to fruition now – today the ASPs cannot talk about that relationship which Churchill, Thathcher etc emphasized so much!) In the 60-70s a man named Cassius Clay purposely changed himself to Islamic Muhammad Ali to taunt ASPs because Africa is majorly Islamic. Even then there were cannibals like Idi Amin and many other Islamic terrorists were developing; what Ali got is sympathy and appreciation while a large section of ASPs merely hung their head in shame. (In 2000-01 Ali was declared “sportsman of the century” in a well-propagandized, highly applauded function – so much America has given to them. After Muhammad Ali and Malcolm X, because of their name and prestige, there is a steady incidence of conversion of Af-Ams and even white-Ams to Islam, which continues to this day. The most important place where it occurs is the prison, so one can know their quality.) So (as per the ditto-heads) Romney is a white racist if he talks about his roots – and they being encouraged as Af-Ams is their right as an individual! So Obama inviting UN in America’s internal matters is his freedom; opposing him is only because he is black and the opponent is a white racist! Earlier I thought this was just cowardice – now I see full scale hatred of the good for being the good. (All these incidences show to what level of demoralization they have driven the ASPs to – the original creators and bearers of knowledge and civilization have no rights in the realm of race.) With all the above privileges and largesses, one will not believe, but still there is a concept known as “white male privilege”. It means that white males enjoy special privileges in America (and of-course should be stripped of them, or others be loaded with such doles as to equalize everybody). Recently, the day after the Boston bombings by the Brothers Tsarnaev, a man named Sirota wrote an article titled Let's hope the Boston Marathon bomber is a white American Wednesday, Apr 17, 2013 04:54 AM IST, salon.com with a self-explanatory subtitle: “There is a double standard: White terrorists are dealt with as lone wolves, Islamists are existential threats”. Just take a look at continuous statistics about a ‘minority’ other than Islam – black males are less than 5% of American population, but form more than 60% of non-terrorist criminals; one parameter on which to infer systemic danger is ‘long term statistics’ that the probability of next danger is more from this area, this community etc. The difference between small percentage in population having large percentage amongst criminals and almost none amongst achievers (generally black achievers are West Indians), and large percentage in populace having much less percentage of criminals but many achievers, if neglected beyond a certain level, and its cause not allowed to be identified by shouting hoarse about Nazism, becomes huge crime against humanity, far worse than acts of terrorism, Hitler, Mao etc. (But remember that as per the ditto-heads the men who coin such phrases as ‘white male privilege’ are not racists – its just me who is a Nazi murderer) Going on the above lines of pampering ‘minorities’ and hating the good, see what Anglo Saxon society is reduced to – in my other book, ‘The Anglo Saxon Protestant Revolution’, I have given several examples of the level of honesty that ordinary man had reached in those societies (including Western Europe). In most towns of England and America newspapers were sold in a simple, standard fashion (I do not know whether this is myth or truth, but we were told these stories in our childhood. But I have given other examples experienced by people known to me.) A pile of newspapers would be left on a stand / stool in any square with a dish for cash by the side – without an attendant. At the end of the day, the cash would be the equivalent of the newspapers taken away. People even left their houses unlocked and unattended, and went away without fear. After so much pampering of minorities and ‘undeveloped’ immigrants I do not think this will be possible in today’s western world. Today let the law enforcers try to be hard on criminals and immediately sympathizers of criminals gather in full force with allegations of racism. Can somebody imagine what corruption, robbery and murder goes on in the ‘undeveloped’ world? Further, white terrorism like shoot-outs etc could also be a backlash to the injustices ASPs are made to suffer by Reverse Racism, against welfare measures, pampering of ‘minorities’ that vitiate ASP way of life, against jobs lost because of welfare-state induced recessions etc. When ASPs’ tolerance level is crossed some of them will resort to racism against entire races. This Backlash, described ahead, is developing in the US. The haters’ simple trick is: neglect (or rather encourage) minorities’ Reverse Racism and make huge propaganda against white Backlash as Nazism. Because of Dems converting White House into Kremlin by means of doles, the ASPs have gathered under GOP – so they are always accused of being racist and recently admitted that they did not want to come off as ‘a bunch of angry white men’. This only means that they too will enter the competition of offering doles so as to woo ‘minorities’ – after all some of them admitted that the welfare state is here to stay. They have accepted defeat as far as basic principles are concerned, though the fight goes on for power. Honesty should be their main tool, but they cannot oppose the Dems’ socialism because charity is also the base of their ethics, so they are generally seen to adopt cheating as their response (e.g. using UN, WB and IMF as E I Co, resorting to war-mongering and bail-out plutocracy etc, all of which is supposed to favor the whites.) Every such move gives the Dems new ammo and example that the ‘whites’ are cheats. As far as welfare state is concerned all they can do is me-too’ing. So finally America inevitably heads to the abyss. Overall, this is my basis for aversion of GOP and criticism of ASPs (explained in detail in the book). Despite all the above, it is the whites who are funding the largesses of the welfare state and Dems’ parasitical vote-block – and yet made to bear demoralization due to Reverse Racism, feel guilty due to allegations, etc. So in the final analysis is this not slavery of the emancipators to the emancipated? Despite being the most magnanimous society, this maligning as ‘angry white men’, racists etc is the work, not merely of one political party, but of several people including the think-tanks whose ditto-heads attacked me for mentioning Anglo Saxon and whites. What will remain once the ASPs are fully demoralized? What is the entire above if not “hatred of the good for being the good”? What else is it if not an agenda to destroy the ASP male who, and whose philosophy and magnanimity, built that country? Would anybody have known freedom or the modern values that many on earth enjoy today? There surely is a plan of destruction behind arguments for the sake of arguments. (Despite all the above, note that I am not saying the black race in itself is evil – the welfare state, doles and government supported education system has criminalized and addicted them; and above I have extended Walter Williams’ statement to say that the Democrats have done so. As can be surmised from commentators (including Ayn Rand’s article on Racism), the blacks were neither in such bad shape themselves (broken families and single parents, addicition etc), nor trouble to society (criminalization) prior to the welfare state in 60s. Only study of races will reveal how to rectify the situation so as to preserve America – but the haters do not allow it as a matter of principle.) Though many ASPs have been taken in by Reverse Racism against them and run for cover as soon allegations are made, yet now there is also a growing awareness of the fact that the Left means to finish the spirit of the ASP (or white) male to destroy America. Just as an example one will get lot of information about Reverse Racism against whites on this link: http://www.solopassion.com/blog/2287. One may have to sift through various entries on this Doug Bandler’s blog; additional information may be available in some other discussions on this forum. I have not read it fully because I am convinced of my arguments; but an article referred to in one comment -- http://www.phillymag.com/articles/white-philly/ and comments on the article are typical of the undercurrent amongst many young white Americans who do not feel as guilty as the seniors. There are comments like blacks are given scholarships and jobs to which whites have no access (this is an admission by a black person); if a school has substantial number of black children and also appreciable numbers of whites, the latter are still given bad treatment by the former. Thomas Sowell’s article talks about how black bullies routinely beat up (sometimes even hospitalize) Asians. And I have shown that black children are purposely being criminalized to create “voting-slaves”, but thereby destroying America – and we are not to talk about all this at the threat of being called racists? (Who is specially privileged if not those bestowed special scholarships, affirmative action jobs etc upon? But look at the haters’ concept of ‘white male privilege’! If whites react then they are Nazis!) Of the ethnic dangers to the US, the Muslims may be one example because of their fanaticism; but population-wise they are very small and therefore at the moment containable. I see other two as the topmost threats – externally the United Nations and internally La Raza, an organization of some Hispanics. Blacks are an indirect danger, not in themselves, but because of use by others as ‘voting slaves’ – they do not have the capability of totally overturning America (with Malcolm X they have shown the inclination after the civil rights movement) – it is the Hispanics because of various factors like large number and higher capability in education used for propaganda via vicious text-books and the internet. Their organization La Raza (the Race) is not merely racist, but strong enmity is nurtured against America using American money and American system and on American soil, sympathy towards any and every of America’s enemy as part of that enmity, intention of separation from America; MEChA is their student arm, they have produced text-books on lines of such thinking and even vowed to work for the liberation of American territory known as Aztalan! They want that there be no border between US and Mexico, or at least there be no restrictions on immigration – the intention is obvious, to crowd the US with as many Latinos as possible and use democracy to defeat the ASPs. (Remember that as per the haters, who also want unlimited immigration, this is their fundamental right, and one is not to identify it and alert rational people, and by doing so one becomes a Nazi.) Nazi scare-crow to gag whites: An important part of Reverse Racism is not to allow the ASPs to state their side, in fact even to formulate their side. Formulation requires study of facts related with races. As soon as such a study is undertaken, or one mentions the virtues of the ASPs because of their ‘way of life’ the hater starts shouting hoarse about racism while he himself practices covert Reverse Racism for nurturing vote-blocks. The scare-crow of Nazism has been built for this exclusive purpose, namely to forestall a study by the ASPs, while others keep practicing Reverse Racism against them. It means that everybody else has rights, to be supplied by the whites – but the whites themselves have no rights! It is important for the ASPs to realize that racism is not a new phenomenon, all of mankind was so (and even today many are). Today what is new about racism is the magnanimity and benevolence of the ASPs which is being misused against them (and they are foolishly allowing it)! (See what goes on as prejudice / hate in rest of the world, and one will be aghast that racism is such an issue in America!) Its coming into prominence after Nazi Germany has become very convenient to defeat rationality, so race is elevated to today’s level as if it’s a new category of problems. (Also see further details in my sub-article on Racism.) The ASPs should realize that while huge Reverse Racism goes on against them in their country, while Af-Ams, Latinos have special names and privileges, only they not being allowed to study racial characteristics is a suppression of their freedom of thought and expression, of their right to defend themselves from things inimical to their country. Do the ASPs mean to behave like the Nazis, to loot and murder other races? Do they mean to deny individual rights to minorities? Huh – they are the looted party due to those loads and loads of welfare and pampering, and part of continuous immigration is because of ‘welfare’. Under them a thing impossible elsewhere has happened – twice they elected as the most powerful man on earth, a man from a community that has hardly produced men of such stature! (In India, generally a non-Brahmin becoming prime-minister is difficult; Manmohan Singh is an exception after independence, but he is mainly promoted by and completely dependent on a Brahmin family.) Under the circumstances can they be charged of racism if they identify some facts related with groups of men like races and religions? (One should be very depraved even to think about the Nazis in comparison with the ASPs!) Will they spare an ASP criminal, reward ASPs for false reasons, heap doles etc? They are the only society on earth known not to do these things – nowhere else does such justice prevail as in their society, which is the reason for one-way migration to their countries. Am I preaching that they start behaving in a racist manner so as to inflict injustices on, loot and murder other races? And will they accept that advice? Instead of denying rights to anybody the ASPs give far more than their rights (part of what I have called as their over-magnanimity, cowardice, demoralization etc), but in fact the others (led by the Democratic Party) do not want the idea of rights to remain in existence because rights force them to stand on their own feet and not on crutches of doles. The others want everything to be submerged into the common pot of collective sharing, which means to finish off the ASP way of life of individualism, means to finish off America. It is obvious from history so far that the minorities do not mean to live upto ASP benevolence but instead take undue advantage of it and ultimately destroy it like they live in their societies of origin as barbarians. Let them live upto ASP standards of rationality, let them adopt individualism, and the history so far does make one expect that the ASPs will have nothing against them, in fact they will welcome it because the world will become a better place to live. But because others do not change themselves, and instead misuse ASP magnanimity, should the original creators of these countries not protect themselves? Ahead I have described in long details the affinity of ASPs to charity (taking it to the level of foolish self-destruction). I learnt much of it from a chapter in the book of Dr. Ambedkar, champion of Indian untouchables, titled “Hindus and their lack of Social Conscience”, in which he gives long lists of American individuals (like George Washington), institutions and trusts, and churches that have done so much charity for the emancipation of Af-Ams. This is a never-before-never-after happening; no other community has ever done this in man-kind’s history, and perhaps nobody will – as far as I see about rich Hindus (the title of Dr. Ambedkar’s chapter describes them), they totally lack good-will, qualms and compunction. They will collect billions and trillions by corruption and cheating as “black money”, i.e. not pay taxes also, but never give a single cent. (Some ASP fools who came to India with their money and wanted rich Indians to join got that experience of being fools.) ASPs will extend lot of help, goodwill, and charity to all Americans including particularly Af-Ams (because of the foolish slavery-guilt forgetting its history and the fact that they emancipated). But the recipients should accept it gracefully and show gradual improvement. What if they misuse magnanimity, insist on shitting on the head of those who gave them free food? What about government intrusion into economy with the help of their vote totally inverting America, false allegations, rise in crime, etc? Agreed that it is incorrect to punish an individual because of his group background of race or religion or whatever – but I ask the haters of good: is it correct to bring civilization down by allowing that level of indecency to your beloved ‘undeveloped’ people? Today I am shocked in disbelief that ASPs’ over-magnanimity has backfired to totally invert America; how did they allow this to happen? To repeat one sentence: “You too deserve it white man! In fact your contribution has to be more than their ability to rob and destroy; else it can not happen on such a grand scale!” The situation is exactly like in Atlas Shrugged – if Rearden is not to give so much to his blood-brother in charity (at the threat of it boomeranging on the good), then why should the ASPs do it for ‘minority-brothers’ and ‘undeveloped immigrants’ who will surely misuse the situation to defeat the ASPs? I repeat for the haters to know: if the welfare state is undone, the UN is abolished, Reverse Racism against whites is stopped along with prohibiting ‘undeveloped immigrants’, there will surely be real good-will and efforts to raise the level particularly of Af-Ams; the ASPs have that much never-before-on-earth generosity – but the Reverse Racism they are suffering is likely to lead to one of several possible modes of destruction – usage of words like ASPs, whites etc is just the beginning, civil war, chaos and collapse could easily be the end. Till one extends ‘the inalienable rights of an individual’ to other races one cannot be called as racist for making references to racial characteristics if they exist as facts of reality (or taking into account actual racial characteristics to mold one’s behavior and save one’s country / society) – only when one tramples others’ rights on racial basis, insults, persecutes or punishes others on racial basis does one become a racist. When it is seen that benevolence and magnanimity is being misused, that appreciably many members of a group (not race but group, race being just a specie of the genus group and a falsely overblown issue) behave so as to erode individualism, or specifically against the whites / ASPs, then that group has to be given different treatment – not immediately start punishing every member of that group, but treat them differently as ‘systemic case’, potential danger etc. What kind and intensity of such special treatment depends on the number of individuals behaving badly, the degree of danger posed, etc. Such treatment was given to Germans and Japanese during WWII, and is presently being given to Muslims in America – checking at entry points, in public places, etc. But its degree depends on the danger posed. (May be the Tsarnaev brothers escaped such checking, and now the treatment will be more severe). This is not limited to minorities alone; when a section of majority community forms such destructive sub-groups they too have to be targeted similarly – e.g. Skin-heads, neo-Nazi groups, communism-based groups like trade unions etc. But when the majority community itself goes out of control, there is no specific group to target, the society itself collapses, which is not the case with Western societies, they are the most stable ones on earth. One thing inferable is that white crime, individual and / or organized, is far less than their percentage, they are the mainstay of their countries, and there is no “white male privilege” on this score. If group-based dangers / activities are not dealt with on group basis then wars with dictators will be impossible – one will have to deal with each individual of the enemy country. When a free country is at war with a dictatorship because of the doings of a small minority (the dictator’s ruling elite) there are many ordinary people trapped under the dictatorship (and some of whom help the dictator though not all); we know this, yet the free country has to wage war with the entire enemy country. Similarly it has to devise suitable ways to deal with ‘group danger’ when it exists on group basis. The group may not be called as enemy group if it is one’s co-citizens (depending on their activities), yet it has group characteristics that are inimical. In fact ASPs’ right to life includes studying everything that will endanger their life, their society and their country. This includes inter-alia every group of people that will do so, whether it is communists, Islam or some race that may endanger them. To study it is their fundamental right. Not to allow them to do so is to take away their right to life. It is now upto the benevolent community to take their right back to study facts about races, religious groups, immigrants etc. If they cannot do that then they will have lost their civilization to savagery merely due to cowardice. Because they are rational, it is obvious that everybody will want to crowd there; literally everybody is knocking at their doors – so should they allow everybody in to get their place destroyed and keep discussing ideas but not particular races, not the fact that particular races / groups / men were responsible for the destruction? They should not mention the fact that the ASPs built a great country and other than them all other races came in later on and destroyed it like the rest of the ‘undeveloped’ world is destroyed? La Raza is already demanding an open border; should they immediately do that? (Also see further details about immigration in the same sub-article on Racism ahead.) Because some Chinese traveled twice in a container box (and died in the second attempt) to breathe fresh air in ‘the land of the free’, because some Afghans, Iranians etc ran away from their countries of origin (many times carrying their hatred for westerners along with them), therefore it is not necessary for the benevolent community to feel embarrassed in pronouncing ‘my Anglo Saxon culture’, while savages all over the earth fight for the pride of their animal-cultures – the ASPs should not feel embarrassed that 4000 year old slavery overlapped the initial years of their great nation – they should be proud that ‘our way of life emancipated whosoever is free amongst men on earth’ – and they should immediately undertake study of races for various purposes listed in the sub-article on ‘Racism’. When the ASPs see that their government itself is taken over by haters and appeasers with the help of minorities, they will even have a right to form militias to protect themselves and their way of life – and if they do so and society plunges into civil war / chaos, the hater is to blame! To further answer the false charge of racism against the ASPs: the danger of the ASPs becoming Nazi is far less than they getting demoralized and losing the meaning of their system by attacks of Reverse Racism; so far their sense of life is very strongly individualistic (they call it as libertarian). They will continue to be individualistic, but unite to protect America if correct arguments are supplied to them. They may become Nazi if demoralization is not stopped – but to do so requires identification of who is doing it, who is using groups (races and religions) against them, etc. Some, particularly Objectivists, also fear collapse into another Dark Ages because of GOP’s reliance on Christianity (which as I shown herein is due their inability to answer Dems’ welfare state agenda) – that too is very difficult because of strong individualism and rationality inculcated in the ASPs. But that too may happen, something like Nazi Christians, if ASP-bashing and pampering of minority vote-block is not stopped, and ASPs are not given a morale-booster. If that happens, the haters should not blame others but only themselves. Ayn Rand’s explicit views on racism are limited to a single, small article when the more prevalent danger and example were Klu Klux Klan and Nazi respectively. Even her view on immigration is of the time when the problem had not grown much – but because she expressed some views does not mean one will go on justifying them to eternity or become blind to new developments, like the ditto-heads are doing. They can always be revised as evidence of new conditions becomes available. In fact there is nothing new in Ayn Rand’s article on Racism, but the specific reason for writing it is to upbraid Negroes (the word then used for Af-Ams) for their demands of racial quotas, i.e. today’s Reverse Racism of affirmative action. (Changing their label to Af-Ams was a minor part of encouraging their irrationality. Re-read her article on racism and ditto-heads will find that it is really meant to criticize Negroes for demanding racial quotas – I am sure if she were living today, she would have long time back strongly opposed today’s Reverse Racism, the use of race-card by the Dems to destroy America. As shown ahead, there is implied racism in Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. Her so-called followers have no courage to bring out any original arguments and just use her name as crutches to prohibit others from doing so). Ayn Rand’s advice of not being racist is fine, but today it is secondary (and as said above, it will be difficult for the ASPs to be racists, they being strong individualists). Reverse Racism and Backlash to it, which is showing its true colors now, is the bigger danger. The minorities and the emancipated people have substantially overturned American social structure, thanks to Democrats playing a simple, nefarious trick of heaping unlimited doles on parasites, and the destroyers will keep using minorities for further collapse. Today Lincoln’s view on races is to be extended to most of non-white mankind – yeah, the same man who emancipated Af-Ams – and its extension is to be considered in arriving at a solution – that the ASPs versus rest of the world are so apart that they will not be harmonious, so should be separated. My consclusion and my extension of Lincoln’s views, as shown ahead, is that unless all others don’t adopt individualism and practice it properly there will never be peace on earth; all others will be a danger to the individualistic community that is already weak in democracy and subject to huge losses despite giving so much. The above also raises questions, especially with reference to America’s pouring money all over the world to spread democracy: what are the preconditions to emancipating others and to what extent is it proper to endanger a free country to take risks? The ‘undeveloped’ are the ones to whom benevolence should be offered conditionally and with caution. Something like: “I will offer them the status of man provided they live upto it by practicing individualism and life of production. My way of life, individualism, and ‘their way’, collectivism (practiced by means of ‘vote’ in a democracy) are not equal, are not just a matter of difference of opinion, but are mutually exclusive, and I shall not allow my country / society to be endangered by them.” I have already dealt with these issues in long details in the book prior to expanding this Introduction. One thing I have explained there is that long time back in the 60s the westerners were warned by an Englishman Enoch Powell that they would come to grief because of ‘immigrant brothers’, which he called as the most important question after the 50s. But after WWII leadership had gone over to the other side of Atlantic, where the winds were of ‘Civil Rights’, so Mr. Powell was declared to be a racist (and later there was repentance for not heeding to his advice, when it was time for grieving.) Even today we have in America haters who hit-out at those hold sane views about immigration as Mr. Powell! Imminent need of identifying heroic and ‘undeveloped’ communities (I have euphemized to save myself; as a ‘racist’ I have to take precautions): Prior to identifying the above I will explain a bit about ‘group values’ (but not exhaustively). What one feels for one’s country is a subset of ‘group values’ – so also for school, college, district, state etc during sports competitions and performance in academics, or the pride one feels for one’s city for good maintenance despite low taxes against the mess of debt, no maintenance and high crime rate of other cities. This pride is rational. Irrationality is infused when they cheat in sports, fight with each other like “dragging the Union Jack down Europe’s gutters” during foot-ball matches etc. So also racism based on the successes of one’s community like Nazism based on superiority of German culture. But feeling rational pride, setting examples for others to learn etc is neither racism, nor irrational. (Rationally enjoying group values is one of the ways benevolence manifests, like celebrating the achievements of a member of any of one’s groups like country, schoold, district etc. In the same realm of group values malevolence manifests by infusing irrationality -- they “make the achiever unselfish” by claiming that he sacrificed for the country by winning the Olympic Medal, or that because the group cheers the winner, they all become equal. Instances of this are Russia, East Germany, and China winning medals to outdo the West – but the west wins medals under condition of freedom and wherein the returns to achievers are as per free market, and yet society too takes pride in their achievement, i.e. group value is experienced.) Important: Just as men are good and bad, countries are good, bad, fanatic etc, so also groups, communities, races etc are broadly so because of their choices (culture, conscious or sub-conscious philosophy etc) and identifying it to show as example to less rational, and as precaution to more rational is not racism at all. Groups too require appreciation and they also undergo demoralization. If one does not commit partiality to favor or punish an individual on racial basis, insult some on that basis or deprive them of their rights, then to push every achievement into the anonymity of “ideas alone” without identification that some particular community lives the most rational life is a grave injustice to that community. To continuously neglect (or rationalize for) huge instances of crimes and vices of other communities (and attack those who want to study its causes), there rarely are anti-good and pro-evil actions of equal magnitude – the men who encourage this are surely more evil than ordinary criminals. What would happen to an individual under such circumstances, the same is happening to the ASPs as a group, internally in America, and on the world scene; Ditto-heads are not bothered (as the ditto-heads say “the consequences are their problem not mine”), because the ditto-heads’ contribution to society is far less than their retu
  17. My new book titled: IS DEMOCRACY THE NEMESIS ALSO OF THE ANGLO-SAXONS? (STORY OF INTELLECTUAL DEFAULT AND MORAL COWARDICE OF ANGRY WHITE MEN) is completed. Because of my pro-America thoughts I am an outcast in India (in fact under persecution and have to lie low), and cannot publish it here. I am posting the Introduction and wish to post the entire book serially, to get readers’ comments. Further posts will depend on the response. Introduction: (The man who invites the Serpent is Re-elected as President: Has the Dismantling of America started?) Around 2008-09 I sought comments on the net on the first draft of my book “The Anglo Saxon Protestant Revolution” (ASP-R) describing how the ASPs mastered the world after Renaissance, built new continents, and why they are now on a down-ward journey as seen in the recent slide of the US. (As ASPs I today include all people who got naturalized into Americans and broadly adopted the classical Anglo-Saxon philosophy of individualism as their way of life.) I was shocked by the trivial comments, the misunderstandings and criticism based on lack of knowledge and I felt the need to write a prologue to ASP-R as clarification. This prologue became a complete book on its own which I titled as “Is Democracy the Nemesis Also of the Anglo-Saxons?”, generally addressed to the ‘Tea Party (TP) Movement Supporters’, who formed the engine of Republican take-over of the House of Representatives in Nov-Dec 2010. It could not be completed in time for the 2012 elections, but had to be suspended for a long time, and perhaps the TP Movement lost steam in between. Very briefly, what the book achieves can be described as follows: Starting from a small island on the edge of Europe, the Anglo Saxons built, with tremendous courage, efforts and sacrifice of blood, sweat and life, two virgin continents on two sides of the Pacific, an entirely New World, the climax of rational man’s aspirations for civilization; they are the main contributors to huge discovery and invention of knowledge, and have emancipated 5 sets of people starting with poor ASPs followed by African-Americans, Europeans (many of them Catholics), myriad migrants from undeveloped societies including many Latinos, and finally, all those who are free in undeveloped societies, from 4000 years’ well established suppression and slavery. But today the emancipators are looked upon as enslavers and racists, the whole earth hates them, and every epithet is unquestionably thrown at them like greedy, selfish, looters of earth, war mongerers etc. But more importantly, the emancipated people who have not contributed much to civilization are out to take-over their countries, and the original creators almost have no answer to it! (Obama’s re-election in 2012 was generally described as contest between ‘angry white men’ versus ‘minorities’!) As I went on studying this topic of America’s slide (and as news developed and became available to me), today I am shocked into disbelief about the factors involved in it. All over the earth minorities are persecuted, victimized and are at a disadvantage. With America it is the opposite – it is the majority community that is being subjected to huge injustice! And the matter is not as simple as that, but shocking qualifications apply to it. The minorities inflicting injustice are either emancipated slaves (who have been slaves since mankind’s dawn) or illegal immigrants (Latinos and enemies and haters from all over the earth like Afghans, Iranians, Chinese etc) – men who have contributed nothing to civilization but gained heavily from the majority – such minorities are now destroying the civilization built by the white man led by the ASPs. The further qualification is that the minorities are not taking over because they are vastly improved, have acquired some great powers arising out of achievement, but they are the same doles-depending backward people who have now become self-righteously demanding – on the other hand the community of creators and achievers has been appeasing and apologizing to the extent of being cowards. (If one studies only the issue of racism (about twenty-six pages included in this book) – its rampant practice world over never opposed by anybody, compared to the enlightenment brought in by the ASPs, and the allegations made against them – one will be aghast at the inversion, what I call as Reverse Racism. The only phrase that should strike one is “hatred of the good for being the good”; but the way I experienced and observed it, even reckless over-magnanimity and cowardice on the part of the ASPs are involved.) This situation is so because the Anglo Saxons reached the end of their intellectual resources (sometime back when the slide started imperceptibly) and are unable to defend themselves and their unique way of life of individualism, and counter an irrational, ‘undeveloped’ world’s onslaught against them. They do not understand that this fight is not about muscles but about intellectuality. The Greeks lost in battle (but democracy contributed to their weakness). Romans fell because of Republic slowly degenerating into democracy and transforming into dictatorship, internal wars etc. America degenerated from Republic to democracy to chaos of mob-rule faster because of ‘minorities’ that were not allowed to participate in Rome. The way America is progressing it will mostly not be an honorable death, but a shameless, ignominious capitulation to the combined group of the immoral, murderous but impotent cowards of the United Nations whose only strength is white peoples’ cowardice, emancipated 4000 year-old slaves, and lastly illegal immigrants, all of them who obtain their funding / doles by making wild allegations and abusing the white man. As is being developed in this book, I will say: “You too deserve it white man! In fact your contribution has to be more than their ability to rob and destroy; else it can not happen on such a grand scale!” America has just unfolded the last leg of her fall! Suddenly the UN’s role is so expanded (mainly after Obama, 2008) that it looks like transforming itself from ‘moral authority’ to take over as ‘world government’! A huge part of science (climate change, clean energy etc) is with it (where big corruption and falsity is being practiced). Its issuing international currency, SDRs etc is being mooted for some time now, and even control over internet, arms trade are being surrendered to it. It has the largest army (‘peace-keeping force’) after the US; but the US, already subservient to the UN masters, is proceeding to submit her sovereignty to the impotents. (This book contains nearly 50 pages of writing about how and why America is commiting suicide by using the UN as E I Co – example of victory of evil when good tries to compromise with it.) The sub-article “An Inverted America – Is it heading towards a collapse?” just ahead, describes how much America is eroded in terms of basic principles. While I have shown how the two political parties (Dems and Reps) have been taking America imperceptibly to the abyss, one small step at a time, President Obama inviting UN inspectors to oversee US elections marks a very big downward jump. It indicates that the process of erosion due to democracy is over, and the process of dismantling America has started – it is a proof that the US cannot reconcile its internal differences and therefore needs an external umpire. (Primarily the internal differences are between the ‘way of life’ of the whites versus the minorities, individualism versus government welfare, but not allowed to so identify due to cowardice.) Everybody has heard about the monkey usurping all the butter belonging to the fighting cats. Here’s a similar one from ancient India – two groups of frogs in a well, yellow and black, fight unendingly like the cats. The leader of the yellow ones goes out and invites a serpent against the blacks. Predictably, the serpent first eats all the black frogs, and then starts with the yellow ones till he finishes all the leader’s relatives, children and wife. Then the yellow leader cries. In America, the yellow leaders are unlikely to cry – they may gloat, having achieved their purpose of destruction. A combination of the impotent (but deceptive) monkey and the venomous serpent is the more appropriate symbol for the UN impotents. (Yet – do not underestimate the impotent; his strength accrues out of the fact that the whites are cowardly about several allegations made against them, and are also unable to act unitedly because of reasons described below and in the entire book. The way I saw menial, slavish Sri Lankans defeating Europeans and ASPs at each others’ hands in the Iraq project I worked on, which is also the way the ASPs are imperceptibly losing to the UN, should make a rational man aghast – any rational man will take lessons from it, but not the mighty ASPs who are bent on committing suicide at the hands of impotents.) Also note another important point – the above was not the last news about UN’s intrusion in US, rather it was the start. Arms treaty happened, but it does not involve the US alone, it has a seeming international aura – one repercussion is that the UN is increasing its role as international authority. In the coming years more and more negative news about UN will develop because – the Dems will repeatedly employ this as their tool to defeat the Reps; they will surely increase US reliance on UN. Importantly, the Rep conservatives do not have any good answer to this issue except for cheating (using UN as E I Co), wherein they will always become the fools of the situation, being novices in cheating as compared to the post-doctorates of ‘undeveloped’ countries. This truly is going to be the last leg of the fight (even if stretched over a few decades), unless some drastic change of fundamentals is introduced as a game-changer. Another indication that the process of break-up of America is started is the formation of white groups (like the recent White Students Union in Baltimore to counter minorities’ collective savagery, the Neo-Nazi groups in US army, the comments seen on the net against illegal immigrants and anti-social activities by minorities, etc) – a society that was the most enlightened and magnanimous on earth is finally being forced to give up its rational way of life due to others’ refusal to accept rationality (and whites’ inability to answer it intellectually). Remember that the Latinos and other illegal migrants from all over the earth are set to increase in the coming decades (when I predict that final collapse will take place). The UN and the rest of the anti-white world will aid that process, I heard arguments while working for UN in Iraq that US and Australia could absorb more than today’s world population but the bastards don’t want to sacrifice – a few decades down the whites’ percentage in population will decrease far more than today – what will they do then? Those few decades is the only time they have to get their act together. America will not be defeated by an external enemy; but she is proceeding towards internal collapse. When that becomes imminent, other nations will move in – those nations are now already united, as United Nations. The vultures are not only circling in the skies in expectation of a feast, but are being invited to share the carcasses! So far the UN impotents, after taking American / Western money (with the West being their only strength), routinely slapped their benefactors in many matters like recognition of Palestine, encouragement to dictators, allegations against US army, etc, but that was from outside. Now, while shedding tears by writing reports about condition of homeless in America, they are suddenly the supervisors in America’s internal affairs! Important point: Whether the impotents entered US (for inspection of polls) is secondary – the more important point is that the man who made such a ghastly proposal was convincingly re-elected as President! (That is the more important indicator of America’s erosion. It raises the question: What is the use of so much abusive noise the whites are making on the net?) Even in India, a predominantly illiterate and semi-literate country, nobody would have dared to make such a proposal. There used to be rampant rigging, “booth-capturing”, prohibition of weaker castes in participation of elections, etc. But they sorted it out by computerizing and phasing the elections, supervison by an independent authority and observation by all political parties under military and para-military protection to reduce unfairness to appreciably low levels. But now with the US setting the precedent perhaps everybody may invite the UN in the future; after all, the US is the world leader, though in this respect the direction is wrong. Question is: can the US not settle the election issue internally, if India could with all its handi-caps, diversity, backwardness, illiteracy and corruption? For reasons explained continuously in the book I do not balme Obama exclusively – he is contributing to the fall, but not more than most of his political colleagues and opponents. (The big downward jump he has taken can be attributed mainly to the fact that that is the point where the competition between the two bad parties to win power reached. The previous big jumps were – not New Deal – but T Roosevelt’s anti-trust acts and Woodrow Wilson’s “idealism” which made New Deal, the UN etc possible.) Society too, having become irrational due to democracy, has influence on rulers’ behavior by discouraging better policies from being implemented. Note important point: Obama has merely invited the UN now – but the UN was originated and carefully nurtured (i.e. milk was fed to the cobra) by the ASPs during better times as some kind of (foolish) ideal (which covered their cowardice); later they tried to use it as East India Co. And only now the inevitable has happened that the UN monster is trying to take them under its control. And even now, many of the whites do not want the UN to be abolished – they only want that it be beaten to a level acceptable to them so that it will not come in their way but merely endorse their E I Co activities. Obama cannot alone be blamed. If the whites are unable to produce some good arguments, then the US is as good as gone, but for some gasping prior to death, which gives a small chance for recovery. (Dismantling US too will take decades). With some state governors threatening to attack UN inspectors (and setting the style of opposition), they are also progressing, even if imperceptibly, towards a civil war. (The ‘sentimental whites’ on the internet sites I visit were already describing family members crying on Obama’s re-election, prayers to the Lord, and some talking about migration! On the other hand, the Attila-like ‘angry white men’ (described ahead) were generally aggressive / defiant, a few even talking about civil war!) Overall I only feel a peculiar mixture of sorrow and shocked disbelief at the developments. How can they destroy themselves so very easily? They don’t deserve the greatness they inherited from their forefathers? As far as I see it, today’s Anglo Saxons do not have it in them to generate defense against – should I say ‘undeveloped’ people, to be politically correct and save myself from those ‘undeveloped’ people? They are unable to produce the arguments that will morally inspire and unite them for a combined defense. Just consider as an example one of their major forms of protests today, the Tea Party Movement (to whom this book was originally addressed) – who are they fighting against? Not any foreigners because as far as the external world is concerned America is truly beyond challenge. They protest against their own people; but these are the people in power because of wrong philosophy and it is against this wrong philosophy that the ASPs are unable to produce any convincing arguments that will unite them. Apart from these ‘angry white men’, most intellectuals too are ineffective (or the good ones have very less say in society); this is described in detail in this book, and how Americans should overcome it is also shown. Ego is the faculty one uses for knowing the world and making decisions; it is not infallible and any man can make mistakes while using it. Better men make less mistakes and more correct usage; mean little egoists are people who misuse the faculty in a peculiar manner; usually they are unwilling to see the better alternatives, and continue to stick to their small-time thinking in spite of it being obviously wrong, inspite of correct alternatives being obvious. This is the reason why today the whites are unable to put up a united defense and their shameful defeat at the hands of emancipated people and illegal immigrants dependent on doles! Both, the intellectuals and the rowdy angry white men, are sufficiently responsible for this state. The intellectuals stick to their mean little ego; the rowdies have the choice to support better intellectuals, but do not avail of it. Many factors contributed to this state of America, but all of them have a common root – aversion of basic principles (part of which is their anathema for philosophers like Plato and Aristotle). They justify this aversion by emphasis on what they call as pragmatism or practicality. (Even now, when the ‘undeveloped’ minorities are taking over their country, and the UN has made inroad into it, they don’t want to study basic principles; all they want is rowdyism and boisterousness.) This has made them ‘men without philosophy’ despite being good men, i.e. closer to Attila. Their magnanimity becomes over-generosity; they are subjected to demoralization due to “hatred of the good for being the good” practiced the world over; they have lot of misunderstandings about the world and in particular, lack of knowledge of evil; but they also have a strong arrogance of not accepting / rectifying these lacks. (Their confidence in superiority of American political system is unshakeable – even at a time when the weaknesses of that system are the cause of shameless defeat at the hands of the irrational! But that unshakeable confidence also comes out of not wanting to study basic philosophy). Aversion for basic principles has actually converted them into cowards, which is the root of giving in to all those unbelievable accusations and abuses from minorities who have contributed nothing to civilization, takeover by minorities and now induction of UN into their internal matters! Just as some examples of the above: It is as part of this aversion to basic principles that they sidelined Ayn Rand when she uniquely foresaw many things like the evil of UN; today they use her name as opportunism. Another example is that movements like the tea parties lose their strength so very fast because of lack of fundamental philosophy – today “I came, I conquered”, tomorrow foooos, so much steam gone. (The other alternatives of whites are not even worth discussing – e.g. appeals to religion – That was the base American Revolution dislodged first and foremost with the first amendment.) The important point is: There have to be some fundamental issues, some key principles / thoughts and line of action over which they have to unite; else they will never be able to stop the ‘undeveloped’ people taking over their country. In fact solution is available in the analysis and refutation of those wrong ideas / concepts which most Americans hold as unchallengeable and sacred – but such analysis is not allowed, the pragmatists are very strongly against it. But these angry white men and their small time intellectuals will never be able to find that line of action because of their aversion for fundamentals. (The main aim of this book is to refute the wrong ideas and find these key principles, this line of action that will save America.) Many sacredly held wrong notions of Americans are dealt with upto the end in this book, but just as example consider the concept “All men were created equal” – if all men were really equal (without proper qualification) then: 1. whatever is happening in the US is to be accepted as right (irrespective of whether it is really right or no), just because it is happening with the backing of more number of “equal” votes; 2. Importantly, we should have a global democracy (since all men are equal), and the agency most suitable for the purpose is the United Nations! Why should angry white men raise so much of a hue and cry against the Dems and the UN? And who will consider them as rational; rather why will people not oppose them? 3. At least 6 billion people on earth (out of 7 billion) will pronounce Americans as the most evil people on earth, looters and murderers, and Satan’s land – and if the phrase “All men are equal” is correct without qualifications we will have to accept that as true (because of such overwhelming majority saying it). (The fact is that the world does consider America to be evil, and instead of challenging it intellectually, they are apologizing together with minor cheating via the UN as E I Co). 4. As a final point against this concept here (its analysis is pursued to the end of the book) imagine the army (or any other organization) where the cadets, the junior officers etc tell their seniors that all men are equal and each one should take his own decision – there will be chaos if men really acted as per this idea. That is how it should be in socio-political and intellectual issues too, i.e. like in any organization, people should organize themselves in a hierarchical manner with top positions for the most rational and intelligent leaders; but in this realm, people have to choose the better politicians and intellectuals voluntarily, have to use their ego very scrupulously; and that is where everything breaks loose, mean little ego comes in, and the irrational takes over. Apart from “all men were created equal”, other sacred catch-phrases of Americans such as “ancient philosophers (including Aristotle) preach inequality”, “the only salient point about European / British rule of the earth was its looting” etc have also contributed to today’s slide, as shown in the detail in the book. Because of Americans’ anathema for basic principles, generally a foreigner only will save America. Americans’ highest influences – Locke, Von Mises, Ayn Rand were all foreigners and moreover fugitives and runaways. The big negative influences too were foreign, topmost Kant amongst them. All the above aspects are described in detail over the entire book. (Because Ayn Rand’s name surfaced strongly during the Tea Parties, quotes from her works are liberally used. But this book is not an endorsement of some small Objectivist group, rather as part of intellectuals critical comments are made against them also.) The book is divided into three parts. It would have been possible to merge these three parts with ASP-R itself, and also to better the write-up with final touches, but the situation arising out of the persecution I underwent has allowed me to present the material only as below. Part I lists out and briefly explains many political concepts that have influenced man’s attempts to form a good government since ancient times, particularly Greek and Roman civilizations from where America has borrowed so much. (Some of these are Americans’ unshakeable, unchallengeable, sacred, pious tenets that they use recklessly against opponents in arguments.) It takes review of American history since inception to bring out the contribution of the two bad parties in gradually changing the American republic into today’s chaos of unlimited majority rule. Part II uses history reviewed in Part I to further analyze why America is proceeding exactly on the same path as Greece and Rome towards collapse. A shocking fact related with this slide is that it is exactly predicted by a man 2500 years back – Plato! (But since Americans look down upon ancient philosophers, they will never learn things from them.) Even America’s Founding Fathers were strongly against democracy as “chaos of mob-rule” and had predicted the same path of destruction leading to today’s situation. This part of the book raises and partly answers what I have called as “The Problem of Civilization”, fundamental questions about democracy over which Greece and Rome failed, and America is faltering precariously. Part III deals with a practical example of ASPs’ moral cowardice during last century. It describes in detail an example of ‘Victory of Evil over Good’, of how the Anglo Saxons are bent on self-destruction at the hands of impotent evil from all over the world by dealing with it via ultra-evil bodies like UN. Importantly, it discusses why the British rule during the Empire, despite some deficiencies, was far better than American domination of the world today; and what is wrong with America’s external policies also throws light on internal policies which add to today’s slide. (This involves refutation of their unshakeable confidence in superiority of American political ideas, spread of Jeffersonian democracy, etc.) About this UN connection I have said with explanation that once the greatest emancipator in mankind’s history, today America has become the perpetrator of biggest crimes against humanity because of its support to the UN. Part III includes a long sub-article on Racism practiced the world over – a solid example of huge magnanimity of Anglo Saxons, their great emancipation of mankind, and very unfortunately and sorrowfully, also their lack of knowledge of evil, cowardice of accepting any allegations at the hands of the same evil world that practices hatred of the good for being the good as a routine way of life. Some more points covered in Parts II and III are given at the end of Part I. 26. The book offers a temporary solution to stop the slide and gain time, and finally offers at least guidelines for a permanent solution. One person commented that I have been critical to the point of rejection – but does the whites’ performance in the twentieth century merit praise? I do not agree with that. Will euphemizing, evasion, rationalization etc help in the present circumstances, particularly when America is hanging precariously and the whites have never acquired the habit of self-introspection about their political thoughts? I do not think not being critical, false eulogies etc will help; and I believe that I have criticized only to the required extent, according praise wherever merited – after all I have called America (in her original founding and achievements) as ‘the climax of rational man’s aspiration of civilization’! I have called the American as the most enlightened, magnanimous man – his magnanimity becoming over-generosity and cowardice in the twentieth century! Appeal to / Test of Patriotism of Americans seen on the Internet: I have been traveling on internet sites for 2 purposes: 1. to study the American mind; why a country as great as America should unstoppably slide and nobody be able to stop its fall; 2. to look for that / those rare mind(s) which will be able to connect me to help after noting that I have something worth contributing but am helpless due to my position in India. (Winning arguments, a loser’s game, was never my intention – even now I will pull out if I note it is heading towards that). I came under persecution for speaking vociferously against the UN but not writing, as demanded by a fanatic Hindu organization, against US-UK-Australia and Christians – they wanted it to help their propaganda against these countries leading to beating of Christians prior to elections. On some internet sites I have already given details of my complaint to Minority Commission in India which includes my challenge to the American President for supporting the UN; I can challenge them for whatever destruction is going on due to internal policies too (give good ammo to the whites who are shouting hoarse but ineffectively). There are people on these forums that are sympathetic but not in a position to help – but there are also many who have gathered only like illiterate women gather for gossip near village wells. I am not asking for anybody’s neck or even the smallest amount of money though Americans are super-rich and splurge madly. I have seen them talk a lot about patriotism, their family members cried on Obama’s re-election, they talk about civil war for the shining city on the hill, etc. But if somebody has genuine feeling for America and is in a position to do so, then all I am expecting is that he will lift a finger just from his sitting position in front of the computer – connect me to an organization that is fighting for the original America, or even dealing with persecution of Christians the world over from where my case with the Minority Commission in India will gain prominence and I will be able to fight for America.
  18. Can I request? -- If somebody has a copy of the first (or original) edition, and if (s)he puts up a scanned version of the original dedication, it will be a great help.
  19. On another forum, I got an enthusiastic reply to my writing, and during discussion I explained to him the basis as follows (it should be read as addressed to him as part of our inter-action): America was too big a happening in man-kind’s history – the climax of rational man’s aspirations for civilization, as I have called it elsewhere. It could not have got built over-night, nor could it have got destroyed so easily – it has withstood huge erosion / onslaught, and even today standing as the greatest country with several positive attributes – but today severely eroded and in danger also. To talk about it (i.e. to describe the phenomenon of America), to reform it for the better etc, cannot be done so very easily, the way we see discussions on internet forums. There are a few sincere attempts (one of them being yours), but some of them go awry because they do not start with the very basic fundamentals (you have gone upto Greece / Rome etc); else they simply get drowned in the din of the trivia that goes on all around. To talk about America one has to go the very bottom (i.e. talk in terms of fundamentals) – how did this phenomenon, so very different from the rest of the world, come into existence in the first place? What did / does it depend on? Then one will come to the conclusion about “inalienable rights of an individual”, freedom of speech and so on, i.e. a democracy / republic (there is confusion about the terminology starting with founding fathers of the US who used both the words to describe it. But we can get it clarified in due course.) Then one will realize that only 3 civilizations so far reached a meaningful democracy – Greece, Rome and today’s Western. These 3 have a distinguishing feature as compared to the rest of the world, viz. that reason / logic was discovered, and meaningfully advanced, only in Greece upto today’s western. Aristotle has made the most important difference! (You will see this theme all over Ayn Rand, but in particular read comparison between Plato and Aristotle in “For the New Intellectual”, every achievement of civilization has Aristotle at its base, “never have so many owed so much to one man”, etc. Post Kant, westerners not only lost Aristotle, but substantially even the Aristotelian sense of life, and what you are calling as capitalism today is merely the remnants of that sense of life. Amongst other things, Ayn Rand re-discovered him for all of us. This theme is brought out in detail by me – and today’s erosion can only be explained / stemmed by getting Aristotle, i.e. reason, back into main-stream life. This is also the reason to talk about crisis of intelligence. Those who evade this under the excuse of allegiance to O’ism are indirectly betraying their conviction – Ayn Rand would not want it that way, she correctly expressed her indebtedness to Aristotle at appropriate places.) Only after having seen all the above one can talk about why did America start eroding to the extent that today its almost on the brink – then one will find that all 3 civilizations reached upto this point, viz. democracy, and then collapsed. Why? Because democracy is fertile ground for moral degeneration, this group you call as hedonists (etc) comes to the fore and determines the govt --- and so on. Only after studying this aspect to the necessary extent one can think of how to overcome it. Without doing all this its very foolish to engage in why GOP attacked Iraq, why Dems increased welfare etc. Their behavior is standard described by Plato step by step, so old it is – and Romans, America’s Founding Fathers etc everybody has studied them also (Washington was a fan of Cato), but so far solution has not been arrived at. If you take up day to day issues, they will go into so many directions of discussions (with every Tom and Dick interfering and steering discussion to his ideas) – till you finally give up, thinking this is all senseless realm. If you have a great philosophy – e.g. Objectivism – that also does not work, because, as you pointed out, the hedonists laugh at your “great philosophy” + they overwhelm you with their numbers, you are nothing in front of them. It is under all these conditions that I am trying to propose a solution to this problem – but I am myself under victimization / persecution here, ours being a fanatic society, my family back-ground being very bad etc. Also: I am not “one of you people”, this factor too has an effect no matter peoples’ proclamation to the opposite, and they tend to neglect me. But note the few effects of not starting from such fundamentals, I have pointed in the link given to you – today, there is a huge fight to save capitalism by its alleged defenders (GOP making big noise about it) versus Dems’ quest for its total annihilation to save the people from its ill-effects like today’s recession! Capitalism in US has died decades back, and we are seeing recessions, corruption etc due to American socialism, and knowledgeable people are defending capitalism instead of attacking socialism with this tool! The other example: The American is the greatest emancipator on earth – but today the white man is fighting to save himself from the emancipated people’s allegations of being a racist oppressor, the noise reverberating all over the earth. All such things will get erased because of my approach of starting from fundamentals. Having shown so much, I had like to hear something more from your side. See if you can take some time off.

  21. Chris (you can call me as Nitin), I am concerned a lot about the socio-political situation that has drifted towards the dangerous – partial reason can be seen below. Around 200 million Indians (the lowest social strata called untouchables in India) were liberated by Anglo-American philosophy from inhuman, inescapable slavery imposed on them as “pious religion” (and other 800 million Indians’ condition improved heavily). Phule, their first emancipator, expressed his gratitude by thanking the British-Raj, celebrating British victory over Brahmin forces during 1857 and asking his followers to learn English language / theories. Even today, some of their intellectuals exhort their followers to celebrate the Englishman Macaulay’s birthday and consider English language as Goddess! (They actually show the language embodied as a Hindu Goddess to new-born children. And recently there was a festival about this in Delhi attended by a British guest of honor. As an Ayn Rand fan, all these things are a bit amusing to me also, but I see their lives around me and am able to better appreciate their efforts.) These aspects, including what level of darkness we were fallen to, cannot be fully explained within this limited write-up – and perhaps several present generation Americans will not understand because they got many things on a platter (to squander away?). I am appalled by the triviality of discussions people have on the many web-forums that I visit – the endless arguments over trivia that – not that these arguments lead to no-where, but have finally delivered the white-house into the hands of Democrat-commies and GOP-war-mongerers, both sides winking at each other, alternately sharing power and the perks! Like Ayn Rand, many others have lamented that US is going to the dogs. For some of us who care, it is the end of civilization as we see it – there is no replacement, no substitute to continue. And civilizations have always ended, this will not be the first one, but it will be very tragic to see it happen during our life-times. Today it has almost and literally gone to dogs, and the process is already on after huge “achievement” of destruction. While the messiah and his communist aides have simply declared their intention to redistribute top Americans’ wealth, the other side has also declared theirs at the tea-farties (no spelling mistake, though MS Word shows it) – the commander-in-chief should not waver in creating the next debt-mountain, attack the Ayatollahs – somebody on this forum mentioned their allies’ names too, Halliburton et al. But I do not see any of this making any difference to most Americans – most probably for the same reason that while they all feel like philosophers arguing vigorously, all their luxurious needs are satisfied by the dollar printing factory, so far absorbed by the world! (The end of the world’s capacity to absorb it seems to be near – and then all hell will break loose.) Few days back I wanted to respond to Barbara Branden’s Objectivism and Rage, it has many positive points – but instead I was driven out of my house during those days, followed by a sorrowful break with my children for some time. Recently I read Michael Kelly’s article “A Question of Sanction” about David Kelly’s attempt to form a bridge with the Libertarians, and the consequent division, etc. This too has many positive points. I got acquainted with western ideas because of reading Ayn Rand’s novels (and then I further learnt about America’s founding philosophy, “inalienable rights of an individual” etc). But I found that there are some odd controversies related to these topics. E.g. Ayn Rand learnt a lot of economics from the Austrian school, Ludwig Von Mises foremost amongst them, and while these are Libertarians, she was quite opposed to Libertarians. Web-info about Ron Paul shows Ayn Rand to be an influence – but I believe most libertarians find her name to be an anathema, though he is their top leader. There was a big split amongst Libertarians on the issue whether 9/11 was an effect of American meddling in middle-east or other way round? There is also another article on this forum: Objectivism, Libertarianism and War by Mike Renzulli which tells why “one faction” of the Libertarians split over 9/11! As said above: while these people argue intensely over these matters, the thing that matters a lot, viz. White-House has already been hijacked by rogues. That mattered a lot to me and I thought perhaps I could contribute. And this post deals with this aspect – why should these knowledgeable be engaged in trivia while rogues hijack the most important thing? I believe that my write-up is good – but then, I am nobody amongst rich Americans who on these forums talk about “champagne as my most preferred water” and “I just did not have that 1 more million to buy that Lautner House” – I should not expect anybody to read my posts. But I will make a last attempt if there is some positive response – on another forum I got a hint that many people do not bother to open links because: 1. fear of virus; 2. lethargy – they want it on a platter. So he demanded that I directly post the material on the forum instead of the link, which I complied with. Same thing can be repeated here if somebody is interested.
  22. I mean: Communism, Religion etc are philosophies that lead to division of society into groups that slide into warfare, dictatorship, collapse at a later date etc .... like Soviet Russia, Dark Ages of Europe, today's middle-east etc. There is a big difference between "freedom of mind" and division of society into irreconcilable antagonist groups. Politics has eroded to such an extent in the US, that it is sliding from one to the other. Mere criticism has not remained of any use, but so also, extreme abusive language, show of muscles etc will not help, rather further deteriorate. Good arguments will help in bringing society towards better -- and that is presented in the given link. That sentence about Communists having entered White-House means I declare today's politicians to have fallen to a very low level -- but fight etc is the last stage, and before going to that level, one can still use better methods. I don't mean to side the politicians, as perhaps you imply.
  23. On several of the web-forums that I visit, I have seen people abusing politicians in manner befitting only primitive societies. ‘Grave’ would be a very mild word to describe the divisive emotional atmosphere in US (e.g. resorting to racist abuses / charges etc). With the proclaimed communists having entered the White House, I believe it is well past the time that people with similar political goals, viz. a small, restrained government and maximum freedom to the individual, came to an understanding for the purpose of reducing this government, while maintaining and declaring differences amongst themselves.

  24. A member on another forum has posted a topic comparing the possible collapse of America with that of Rome in 476 AD. http://forum.objectivismonline.net/index.php?showtopic=14463. My reply there is the reason why I said "Ayn Rand is not the DIRECT solution to today's problems of America". It is reproduced below. 4. Comments on Quotes about Democracy – And – The “Collapse Clause” of Democracy Proceeding on the above lines of degeneration of rulers due to mass psychology, the pattern of collapse of American democracy is very nicely explained by the following ancient quote (though the existential situation is almost like small-town, rural India). See if anybody can recognize the following sentences, purposely listed serially (instead of paragraph) by numbers used for comments that follow: i. The characteristic of the democracy is equal freedom and open speech to all, with liberty to each man to shape his own life as he chooses. ii. …. even horses, asses and dogs go free about, so that they run against you in the road, if you do not make way for them. …… iii. The subversion of such a democracy arises from men who rise to be popular leaders in it: violent, ambitious, extravagant men who gain the favor of the people by distributing amongst them confiscations from the property of the rich. iv. The rich, resisting these injustices, become enemies to the constitution. v. The people, in order to put them down, range themselves under the banners of the most energetic popular leader, who takes advantage of such a position to render himself a despot. vi. He begins his rule by some acceptable measures, such as abolition of debts, and assignment of lands to the poorer citizens, until he has expelled or destroyed, the parties opposed to him. vii. He seeks pretences for foreign wars, in order that the people may stand in need of a leader, and may be kept poor by the contributions necessary to sustain war. viii. But presently he finds, or suspects, dissatisfaction among the more liberal spirits. He kills or banishes them as enemies: Does anybody recognize the similarity of the situation in the above lines and today’s large democracies? See comments in the table below, against sentences which bear the same number as in the original quotation, but regrouped appropriately. Statement and Statement number. Comment i. The characteristic of the democracy is equal freedom and open speech to all, with liberty to each man to shape his own life as he chooses. Comment: This is the most important clause of democracy, and should be called as its “Freedom and Equality Clause”. But at the same time it also includes a crucially important characteristic because of which I have also called it as the “Collapse Clause of Democracy”, and used it ahead in the solution to the problems due to democracy. * See ‘Note’ below. ii. …. even horses, asses and dogs go free about, so that they run against you in the road, if you do not make way for them. …… Comment: Today’s US may be different from this in terms of material wealth, but small-town rural India is similar, and the author has surely not visited India! iii. The subversion of such a democracy arises from men who rise to be popular leaders in it: violent, ambitious, extravagant men who gain the favor of the people by distributing amongst them confiscations from the property of the rich. vi. He begins his rule by some acceptable measures, such as abolition of debts, and assignment of lands to the poorer citizens, until he has expelled or destroyed, the parties opposed to him. Comment: This role has today been taken up in the US by the Democrats, in India by several parties etc. Direct confiscation is sometimes resorted to (known as nationalization), but the major means today is ‘printing excess notes’, Woodrow Wilson’s ‘elastic money’. Granting debts and then waiving them off and expanding reservation of government jobs (as affirmative action) prior to important elections, are common tricks in India. This competition of giving hand-outs is an important part of the “Collapse Clause of Democracy”. vii. He seeks pretences for foreign wars, in order that the people may stand in need of a leader, and may be kept poor by the contributions necessary to sustain war. Comment: This role is taken up in the US mainly by the Republican Party as an answer to Democratic Party’s onslaught to gain popularity by ‘socialism’. In India, a large ‘conservative’ party is raring to take it up. It will be difficult for both these parties to give up this role – they will not have an election pitch. And this is the other side of the “Collapse Clause of Democracy”. iv. The rich, resisting these injustices, become enemies to the constitution. v. The people, in order to put them down, range themselves under the banners of the most energetic popular leader, who takes advantage of such a position to render himself a despot. viii. But presently he finds, or suspects, dissatisfaction among the more liberal spirits. He kills or banishes them as enemies. Comment: These divisions are in nascent stage in the US because the change takes place ‘imperceptibly’, but the original US constitution is now rendered substantially useless to protect the individual. The massive “anti-capitalism” protests there are mark of ‘rich-poor’ division, but meaningless because capitalism does not even exist there. Recession can also lead to secession – point in case is the negligible Texas movement suddenly coming into national focus in April ’09, and talks of states shifting to their own currencies. In India the groups have taken a definite form in different regions, and are now set to coalesce into larger groups with more destructive powers. * Note: This crucially important characteristic of democracy has not been identified by the above quoted writer or by any other intellectuals since his time, because of which civilizations fail at this point in their development. It is because of this contradictory nature of democracy that the ASPs laud the first amendment as well as curse democracy and multi-culturalism at the same time. Beyond this point, this clause is referred to only as the “Collapse Clause”, because only that part is important for the analysis of moral degeneration due to democracy. One person on a net forum, who saw my write-up prior to its completion, criticized me for talking about “one piece solution” to democracy’s multitudinous, multifarious problems. But just above him, another person had commented that an overwhelming majority of man-kind does not think about these issues! So I could show them there itself that that is the essence of the “Collapse Clause” – that they do not think at all, but they are overwhelmingly large in numbers, so they overwhelmingly determine the government and the quality of rulers. Lead that overwhelming majority to either of foolishness or wickedness, and you have a foolish or evil government. Contain them correctly – which is difficult over the long term, but can be done as shown at the end of this book – and you have a Rational Society which the US was close to at the time of its founding, and more importantly, had far less of moral degeneration. Coming back to the above-quoted writer, barring development of physical sciences, the situation is the same between the time of the above quote and now. Note one important point – politics, the concept of justice etc were highly developed during the above period, though there was almost nil physical science. Most science, that too school-children’s level by today’s standards, came much later – the above passage was written in 380 BC, which means concept of democracy, justice etc were at least 2 – 300 years older (say about 600 to 500 BC) to write with the above accuracy! From this point of view, we must admire those peoples’ quest for reason, justice etc, and the fact that they had reached up to same level of democracy as modern America! The passage is from Plato’s The Republic – unfortunately, I do not now know the name of the English translator, I vaguely remember the name George Grote but my memory could be wrong. I have the photocopy of page nos 26 to 119 of the book from Mumbai’s “Library of the Bombay Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society”. Page no 26 is the last page of the Dialogue Kleitophon, the rest is The Repbulic. Several developing countries merely borrowed the concept of democracy from the Europeans / British – but being far away from concept of justice, they collapsed like pins after WWII. The Greeks were fully aware of this problem, and written material is also available of how Olympic sportsmen, Orators (not necessarily rational in thinking but good at oratory irrespective of rational thinking, i.e. sophists and such) will take-over democracy! It is similar to sportsmen, small time female actresses, comedians, media personalities etc taking over democracy in our times – principle is the same, I have called it as ‘irrational soul pleasing’. Despite being so much aware (Plato’s quote being a sample), the Greek and Roman rules collapsed because of this clause. America had gone far above everybody else, due to Greek / European experience, but more as a consequence of the ASP Revolution, of those peoples’ commitment to reason! They had come very close to ensuring a Rational Society, but are slipping because of the above-mentioned Collapse Clause of Democracy. Now they have substantially turned back, and we have to see which way the coin falls, heads or tails! The Founding Fathers of US were fully aware of this problem and had taken several measures to keep it under control. In an article titled “Democracy and Majority Rule” on the website Atlasphere dated May 29, 2009, the writer Walter Williams tells about the measures taken against ‘majoritarian tyranny’ by the framers of the US constitution; there is a quote from James Madison’s writing against injustice by majority, etc. Further he says, [John Adams predicted, “Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There was never a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.”] Though ASP society in its ascent phase was morally even more advanced than the Greeks, we are now back to square one, same place as predicted by Plato for his City in The Republic, back to 380 BC. The same concepts of morality, justice and selfishness, which the Greeks knew during pre-science days, it is now difficult to explain to men watching landing on the Mars on their TV! And I found following quotes on a web site / article titled “Cabin Dreams” by J M Cornwell, dated March 11, 2009. Below the article is the title: Words of a Prophet and below it the photo of a serene, wise, typically “classical English” man with a hint of a smile, Thomas Jefferson, followed by the quotes: “The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who do not. It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debt as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world. I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the Government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them. My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government. To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.” Those truly are the words of a prophet – unfortunately I have to say to him, “Sir! Your words are those of a wise man – the only problem is that your kind of wisdom is no more welcome in the country you perspired to establish. Your people now consider you to be very ancient, out-dated. A hundred years after you another saint and his apostles arose, and your people love them – FDR, JFK, BHO et al. They take so much away from those who are willing to work and give to those who do not! And the other half is indulging in what you tried to avoid – mountainous debts and wars. And both violate the next three of your statements Sir!” Ayn Rand herself referred at several places to fall of America, for example “For the New Intellectual” starts with America being bankrupt and following a suicidal course; The title: The New Left – the Anti-Industrial Revolution is self-explanatory and articles like “From A Symposium” describe how America is being led to collapse; or the very essence of Atlas Shrugged is the building of a new society out of the collapse of the present one (and the villains are seen in multiple copies, where are the heroes?); Anthem starts with a collapsed modern society of about 1930s (means too much more developed than Greece) – just read the April 1946 foreword she wrote for it to know what she meant by the world proceeding to collectivism, we have progressed so much towards that world; In several essays in Capitalism the Unknown Ideal, she talks about what type of dictatorship is likely to emerge in America – e.g. the title of article (of 1965): “The New Fascism: Rule by Consensus” is self-explanatory and ends with the type of dictatorship America is heading towards; (If I am not wrong, Ominous Parallels was endorsed by her? And today, has the situation deteriorated far beyond?); in the 1971 article “Don’t Let It Go” (from the book Philosophy Who Needs It), she says “If America drags on in her current state (which is unlikely) for a few more generations, dictatorship will become possible.” Here she was only addressing better Americans to “Don’t Let It Go”, but the unlikely has become a reality, America has dragged on and the speed of getting closer to collapse is now progressively increasing. What was a more distant possibility during her life-time (huge erosion having already happened since 1900) is now a reality – in fact in an article titled “Dismantling America” on the web-site the Atlasphere, dated Oct 27 2009, Thomas Sowell gives a horror-list of government’s atrocities that were not imaginable even one year back! (The meaning of what she meant by saying that they are taking you, not to the days of pre-science, but the days of pre-language, is given ahead.) What matters now is the solution to this decay of democracy, take-over of the political machine by the so-called ‘lower classes’ released because of the efforts of heroes. It is said that civilizations have a limited life. Every civilization in the past has perished – and by implication today’s western civilization too, led by the US, is destined to end so. At this point it is important to bring out the connection between Greek, Roman and modern western civilizations / democracies – only these three are based on Aristotle’s philosophy – the importance of this statement is that only these have added far more knowledge than any other civilizations. Some other civilizations have lived for longer time than these three democracies – e.g. the Egyptian civilization lived for 3000 years, Christianity and Islam held sway over major areas for more than 1000 years, etc. The common point amongst these is that either there was very low addition to knowledge or retrogression and priestly monopoly over it. And there was no democracy or freedom, but men were owned by the priests / rulers. This is what differentiates the three Aristotelian civilizations from all other civilizations, and it is important to save the present one with its freedom in democratic form. Without meaning any disrespect to the people named above, I want to state firmly, that democracy need not kill itself, need not lead civilization to collapse, that a solution is available to this “problem of civilization” – that today, the US may be sliding towards the abyss, but it is not beyond redemption, the slide can be stopped, the rot can be stemmed – provided the men Aristotle called as ‘the wise and the noble’, George Washington called as ‘the wise and the honest’, and identified herein as the 0.5% Good Group, along with their 15% assistants join hands over the correct course of action. That correct course of action is described at the end of this book. No other course of action and piece of knowledge will stop the slide, please note. All other things will get buried once the collapse occurs. 5. Democracy and the First Amendment
  25. On another site somebody has posted a lot of material about the UN. I have posted my experiences in Iraq about the UN. Those interested in knowing about my UN experiences can see http://www.solopassion.com/node/7451 The OP's posts on the same forum are here http://www.solopassion.com/node/7296 The OP has given the usual type of sarcastic response which is of interest to me as a subject of study -- so this is likely to develop into a good contest, though of-course I have no intention of winning in such arguments. I am waiting for others to comment on that forum.
