Intuition had me reading books on the Occupation of Europe under the Reich. I started with German writers discussing first the Beer Hall putsch, then Hitler in prison and then Nazi domestic policy. One of the more interesting books was by Thomas and his daughter Erika Mann. School for Barbarians discussing the dumbing down of German education. Then several books on the Occupation of France including two by men who were aligned with both Vichy and the Reich and of course more that were not. I read as well about life in the Resistance with a collection of articles written by Camus for the Resistance paper Combat. My attention shifted to Italy and Greece and the Jersey islands. And America without German Occupation.
This morning I see a piece by Lew Rockwell praising Tucker Carlson discussing the coup bringing LBJ to power. I smile. I knew this when I was a child. And then an uncontrollable chill came over me. If since 1965 I knew it was a coup and I was 8 and Tucker bravely speaks out over 55 years later quite a bit of water has flooded and still does the nation. After the Biden coup the obvious is Americans barely care. Money not freedom is all they seek. Recreation is the desire. Pecuniary emulation drives the dedicated Stakhanovites. The Sanitary State is the Second Coming and Joe Biden is Savior. Ask no questions and make no waves and inject on command and mask frequently for this is the commandment from On High.
I spent last night with my wife in her room. I decided both job offers had to be set aside. My full time job has to be freeing her from Medical captivity. One week until a specialized surgical team reviews her case.
More tests. More prodding. The controlling thesis is her health improves by working on her. Last year the insanity was to gas her with poison to make her well. Hospital quiet over Xmas. Even ER quiet. I hear hospitals are filling with vaccinated but I see little evidence in this one. I am struggling with her daughter as well who thinks that the medical team are sent from the Intercessor and thus if murdered by medicine she goes directly to paradise. I have conversations with nurses and doctors about sending her home. The phrase Safe keeps coming up. What if she falls? I point out people fall in the bath all the time. And if I am holding her, transitioning from say a chair in the bath to a chair that moves (office chair) can take her from door of bathroom to bed. Further I can help with rehab and no thesis that a skilled nursing facility is superior convinces me this improvement is better than home rest in home bed.
And it rains outside to match my mood inwardly. A hard rain is falling. And when the levee breaks from neglect and indifference with a 100 year flood the Tesla will not float as well as your home.
In a dark time when the inner eye see's what outer eyes refuse to know I recall a Tolstoy piece on prayer. A bishop visits 3 old hermits to correct their prayer life and quite satisfied embarks home. Then in a matter of time his outer eyes witness the three brothers on the water walking to him. They have forgotten his prayer. At this instant his inner eyes recognize what the outer eyes see. He tells them their prayers are what they need, not the one he taught.
Exceedingly difficult times and as you so ably point out we knew since childhood. We knew with each new assassination, war, political change, false flag, etc. We did what we were able to create change though the average person (and our beleaguered parents) railed against our radical perspectives. It is little comfort to be right in this situation. And we deal with medical tyranny - either under the gun or completely divorced from the system. Neither is easy.
Goethe would suggest that you write poetry in this time.
