Absolutely No One, Say It Again, UH WAR, What is it good for, Absolutely Nothing

I am reading Gabriel Marcel this morning. Man Against Humanity. The trend line is self evident. Technocracy is our world system. The triumph of the “Technique” flattens our horizons of thought and self reflection falls away and humans become massified and abstract shades. America is marching to the cliff spellbound. Globalists and Globalism use technique to butcher us with their biological weapons and the SILENCES grow louder. Will people across the great poison sea hear the atomic explosions in the Ukraine? What about LA turning into a Mushroom cloud after Kiev? Will Americans hear this? Can a 100 megaton war be seen as the great reset win?

The Crab-Apple Crisis George MacBeth- -For Martin Bell 'To make this study concrete I have devised a ladder - a metaphorical ladder - which indicates that there are many continuous paths between a low-level crisis and an al war.' from 'On Escalation' by Herman Kahn

Level I : Cold War Rung 1: Ostensible Crisis Is that you, Barnes ? Now see here, friend. From where I am I can see your boy quite clearly soft-shoeing along towards my crab-apple tree. And I want you to know I can't take that.

Rung 2: Political Economic And Diplomatic Gestures If you don't wipe that smile off your face, I warn you I shall turn up the screw of my frog transistor above the whirr of your lawn-mower.

Marcel:

“Between the physical destruction wrought by the atomic bomb and the spiritual destruction wrought by techniques of human degradation there exists, quite certainly, a secret bond; it is precisely the duty of reflective thinking to lay bare that secret. - The relationship which can exist between the two statements, ‘God is dead’, ‘Man is in his death-throes’, is not only a complex relationship, but an ambiguous one.

We can ask ourselves, for instance, whether Nietzsche’s cry of exultation or pain did not, just like the modern cry of mere pain, presuppose a concrete historical situation; linked itself, like our situation, to a preliminary misuse of human powers, of which men at that time had been guilty. No doubt we ought to recognize that the relationship between the two statements, “God is dead’, and ‘Man is in his death-throes’, is concrete and existential, not logical: it is quite impossible to extract from Nietzsche’s statement about God by any method of analysis the other statement about man, though Nietzsche perhaps would have accepted the statement about man, at least during the ultimate or penultimate period of his working life.

 Even if he had accepted it, however, he would probably not have perceived all the overtones in the statement, ‘Man is in his death-throes’, which we can perceive to-day. Also (this is a strange reflection, but a true one) it is perhaps by starting from the statement, “Man is in his death-throes’, that we may be able to question once more the statement, ‘God is dead’, and to discover that God is living after all. It is, as the reader will soon discover, towards the latter conclusion that the whole of my subsequent argument tends. But what we have to ask ourselves first is the following question: what becomes of freedom in a world in which man, or at least man at a certain level of self-awareness, is forced to recognize that he has entered into his death-throes?”

Then Abp. Vigano": Faced with reality, however, it is difficult to understand the reason for which the entire world population has allowed itself to be convinced of the existence of a pandemic virus that has yet to be isolated and that it has supinely accepted limitations to personal freedom that at other times would have led to revolution and barricades in the streets. Even more incomprehensible is not so much the absence of a true and proper social and political reaction, but the inability to see reality in all of its crude evidence. But this is due, as we know, to the scientific action of manipulation of the masses that inevitably led to the phenomenon that social psychology calls “cognitive dissonance,” that is, the tension or discomfort we feel in the face of two opposing and incompatible ideas. The psychologist and sociologist Leon Festinger has demonstrated that this discomfort leads us to elaborate these convictions in three ways, in order to reduce the psychological incongruence that dissonance determines: changing one’s attitude, changing the context, or changing one’s behavior. Ordinary people, unable to comprehend or even recognize any rationality in what the media obsessively says about COVID, accept the absurdity of an influenzal virus presented as being more devastating than ebola, because they do not want to accept that their political leaders are lying shamelessly, with the goal of obtaining the social, economic, moral and religious destruction of a world that someone has decided to cancel. They do not know how to accept that the lie can be passed off as truth, that doctors are not curing and indeed are killing their patients, that civil authorities are not intervening to stop crimes and blatant violations, that politicians are all obeying a faceless lobby, that Bergoglio wants to demolish the Church of Christ to replace it with an infernal Masonic parody. Thus, out of this desire to not accept the deception and thus to not want to take a position against it and against those who promote it, they take refuge in the convenient mainstream narrative, suspending judgment and letting others tell them what to think, even if it is irrational and contradictory. Billions of people have voluntarily made themselves slaves, sacrificial victims to the globalist Moloch, allowing themselves to be persuaded of the inevitability of such a surreal and absurd situation. Or better still: the absurdity of what we see and what is told us seems to give greater strength to the reasons of those who, after two hundred years of revolution in the name of a supposed liberty, accept tyranny as a normal fact and go up to the gallows with the resignation of those who are convinced, after all, that they are guilty in some way.
