5 days Trump is Tsar of the Titanic

Yuan Wu said, “I asked the meaning of ‘Having words or wordlessness, both are like clinging vines on the tree.’ Wu Tsu said, ‘Describe it and it can’t be described completely, depict it and it can’t be depicted accurately.’ I also asked, ‘How is it when the tree falls and the vines wither?’ Wu Tsu said, ‘It comes along with it.’” At these words, Ta Hui was released, saying, “I understand.” So then Yuan Wu brought up several particularly difficult cases in order to question Ta Hui, who replied to them all without getting stuck. Yuan Wu said, “At last I know I haven’t been deceiving you.” After this Yuan Wu accepted him as the heir to the true school of Lin Chi.

“No question, now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”

No doubt about it: the revolution was successful.

That January 6, 2021 attempt by President Trump and his followers to overturn the election results was not the revolution, however.

Those who answered President Trump’s call to march on the Capitol were merely the fall guys, manipulated into creating the perfect crisis for the Deep State - a.k.a. the Police State a.k.a. the Military Industrial Complex a.k.a. the Techno-Corporate State a.k.a. the Surveillance State—to amass even greater powers.

It took no time at all for the switch to be thrown and the nation’s capital to be placed under a military lockdown, online speech forums restricted, and individuals with subversive or controversial viewpoints ferreted out, investigated, shamed and/or shunned.

It was a set-up, folks.

The Justice Department’s policy of not prosecuting a sitting president was the tell.

The only coup d’etat to undermine the will of the people happened when our government “of the people, by the people, for the people” was overthrown by a profit-driven, militaristic, techno-corporate state that is in cahoots with a government “of the rich, by the elite, for the corporations.”

Berdyaev notes, the idea of freedom itself contains within it the of a theory of tragedy far deeper than that developed by ancient thought distinct from the ancient tragedy of fate, which is at odds with freedom deeper Christian theory is a 'tragedy of freedom'.

The essence of this Christian theory is that it reveals tragedy to be inescapably present even in life, since tragedy derives from the very nature of being. More precise Christian 'tragedy of freedom' rests on the profound recognition that fate is the child of freedom. This means that freedom itself is fatal. Christianity does not believe in the power of blind fate, for it reveals to us Meaning which transcends the world and rules it, and to which appeal can be made against the pain, the suffering, the 'fatal' happenings of life. But it transfers tragedy to a greater depth, to freedom which is prior to being and deeper than it.

In order fully to understand the Christian theory of tragedy, it is necessary to meditate further on the claim that freedom 'is prior to being and deeper than it'. Only when the meaning of this mysterious thought is understood does the Christian version of the tragic vision begin to provide a solution to the problem of evil. In what sense, then, is freedom 'prior to being and deeper than it' ? Traditional theology, Berdyaev believes, fails miserably to deal adequately with the problem of evil because the traditional interpretation of the Book of Genesis treats creation as in effect 'a divine comedy, a play that God plays with Himself. The result is that the nature of the 'nothing' which precedes the work of creation has not been properly understood by Christian thinkers. Above all, they have failed to appreciate the crucial fact that this uncreated nothing is prior not only to creation, but to God Himself. The nothing, that is, stands above God and His creation, and therefore imposes intrinsic limits upon both of them. Berdyaev's emphasis is rather on the recognition that existence itself inevitably brings with it the eternal fatality of evil.
