If you're unable to criticize the institutions and their leaders you like the most then you have no right to criticize the institutions and their leaders you like the least. Holding everything we value to the highest possible standards though intense scrutiny is the only way to prevent our most sacred cows from becoming golden idols! A little bit of Canadian history on the beginnings of liberalism in Canada during the Mackenzie-Papineau Rebellion of 1837-38

If you're unable to criticize the institutions and their leaders you like the most then you have no right to criticize the institutions and their leaders you like the least.

I want to know when I am wrong as I am confronted by a world of infinite complexity. I am also aware that I must be wrong in ways I have yet to discover. The only solution to that is to ask for Divine wisdom as well as to cultivate the humility to know that finite creatures such as we cannot apprehend much. Certainly, we do not have God, the very Lord of the infinite, wrapped up neatly in our doctrinal box. Pride resides at the apex of the seven deadly sins. Pride is manifested by narcissistic projection, a condition where we own nothing while projecting our inadequacies onto others. Narcissistic projection always tells you far more about the narcissist than it does about the one whom the narcissist is attacking. And face it, the very conditional premise of being a Christian is based upon the realization that we are all sinners who fall far short of the Glory of God. When I encounter Christians who are utterly unwilling to examine the failure of the Church to be the salt of the earth, even as we are admonished to do, I am seeing the self-same species of psychological projection that the WOKE use when confronted with facts that they cannot handle. Cognitive dissonance belongs to anyone arrogant enough to believe that their dogma is absolute without ever considering evidence to the contrary. 1 Corinthians 13:12: For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

Divide and conquer is certainly a principle that the elite have perfected! Too bad we are so slow to catch on to the oldest trick in employed to win war with the least number of casualties for the one who employs this tactic. For that is what we are in, an ideological battle for the hearts and minds of our fellows. Why you must respect Trudeau's “authoritah” or receive "La boccia della morte", which means the kiss of death! Given the many weeks of we heard reporting both from the legacy media as well as alternative media that the Trudeau government had been warned by CSIS that Communist China had funded and interfered in our elections only to have the government deny such even though the conversation between Justin Trudeau and Xi Jinping was recorded proving the allegations are valid. Then adding insult to injury we now know the government had not met the high bar required for it to have invoked what amounts to martial law yet continues to invent justifications for exceeding their proper mandate to govern, I have the following observations: I had a "discussion" on one of the legacy media's Facebook comment feeds with those who believe that the Canadian government can do no wrong and that it's not "my call" to question their "authoritah"! They sounded like Cartman from South Park. We are well and truly screwed when a significant proportion of Canadians think such things. Obviously my fellow citizens are utterly ignorant of the warning given to us by the ancient Greeks that democracy unrestrained by law quickly descends into mob rule and tyranny. Welcome to the oh so Canadian version of Postmodern dystopia and it's no surprise to me that once again the usual suspects from the Laurentian Elite are behind it where Xi Jinping is El Capo de Tutti Capi and Trudeau is his Consigliere. Canada is under the control of the Chinese Mafia! I predict someone is going to wake up with a horse's head in their bed! Trudeau playing us for fools has made him into El Capo de Tutti Cazzi! Look up the meaning of cazzi if you question my ability to swear in Italian!

What kind of society are we allowing our leaders to create where all the major players on the world stage use State force to divest us of our wealth and economic freedom? Yes, even our right to gather in fellowship in a church or a pub! Sunak, Biden, Macron, Trudeau, the WEF, the CCP, et al are all part of an essential lie which has all too much in common with communism since its based on dialectical materialism. These leaders may label themselves with all manner of political handles to describe their erstwhile political affiliation, but they only do so to hide what an essential truth about them. They have all torn a page out of the same playbook. Worse, they are completely glib about it. They know we know they are lying, but they keep lying. They do not care about the environment. They do not care about net zero. They do not care about the oppressed. They do not care about LGBTQ. They do not care about WOKE. They only care about the power they require to control the dialectical struggle inherent to dialectical materialism where we are the pawns in their Ponzi scheme. Even if they won’t admit that they are dedicated Marxists, they have become Marxism’s useful fools to propagate a world order where coercion, social isolation, brute force, and want will replace the consent of the governed! And they are not finished with us yet if anything which comes out of DAVOS is any indicator. We simply must not allow them to separate us so they can divide and conquer us. The only way for us to counter their diabolical plans is to refuse to allow them to force us back into isolation. After all, we are not one another’s enemies, and their diabolical machinations and evil plans have made that fact abundantly clear!

No competent physician merely treats the symptoms of their patients' illnesses. Understanding the root cause of diseases so as to cure them must accompany treatment if cures are to be affected. Likewise, no solution for our political and social ills can be found without first examining why society has become infected with mental pathogens which have their origins in dialectical materialism. How is it the West has fallen prey to an ideology which has resulted in well over 100 million deaths and the oppression of countless millions more? For this is an ideology which rejects individuality, personal autonomy, and spirituality. The short answer is that these mental pathogens originated in the Academy where generations of naïve young adults were inculcated with Postmodernism and Cultural Marxism by their Neo-Marxist professors teaching in the humanities.

The complexity of human behaviour has always fascinated me. Of all behaviours that I find most remarkable is the belief that the answers needed to address multivariate complex problems can be found without ever having used problem-solving methodology. Sadly, we have an elite class of politicians and bureaucrats who believe in an ideology that provides them with blanket simplistic solutions that in practice result in creating ancillary problems worse than the issues they needed to solve. They have become living examples of those who see every problem as a nail which needs pounding and that therefore a hammer is the only proper tool to be used. That hammer of course invariably involves the state exercising more control over society accompanied by higher taxation. Moreover, this “solution” invariably fails to address the very problems they set about to resolve. Since I cannot assume that our leaders are stupid, although I cannot rule out that possibility either, there must be another reason they so blindly assign failing policies to issues without being able to show beneficial outcomes. Having observed the complete failure of COVID mandates and lockdowns, the loss of employment to many who refused to comply with the mandates, the closure of small businesses on an unprecedented scale, the greatest transfer of wealth in the history of humanity over the past few years, failed climate initiatives accompanied by growing concern over the hidden damages being caused by pursuing so called green energy resulting in the coldest fall and coming winter in Europe in living memory replete with a war on fertilizer which are causing food shortages, and the recent revelation that Canada has eleven sitting Liberal MP’s whose campaigns were paid for by the CCP, with the last statement revealing the likely source of the idea pathogens behind all the policy failures which I have listed.

“The past is rewritten so fast you don’t know what will happen yesterday!” – Soviet proverb Do not confuse the symptoms with the illness. That short sentence defines why we are unable to cure the pathogens which sicken us, whether they be physical, psychological, or indeed spiritual.

Today we honour those who gave their tomorrows for our today, but is what we have today what they fought and died for? We must never forget why our men and women made the ultimate sacrifice, it was to stop totalitarian regimes from ruling the world. The very totalitarians who influenced the 2019 elections in Canada by helping to fund several sitting LPC MP's currently holding office. Never forget, Trudeau is a Neo-Marxist! He knew about this since no later than last January and has done nothing to stop the creep of Marxism in the heart of his government. In my opinion there can only be one reason for this, he knew all along since he works hand in glove with the CCP! https://globalnews.ca/news/9253386/canadian-intelligence-warned-pm-trudeau-that-china-covertly-funded-2019-election-candidates-sources/?fbclid=IwAR0tuaNGwKYf4V18XOvgVjZ57sKkB3fOEoG1NNJGNND047HCvFRlvTqfzqQ

Many of you will be aware of an article written by Emily Oster published in the Atlantic on Oct. 31st, 2022 entitled, “LET’S DECLARE A PANDEMIC AMNESTY: Let’s focus on the future, and fix the problems we still need to solve.” https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/10/covid-response-forgiveness/671879/ In this article Oster insists that we ought to forgive and forget how illiberal and authoritarian the response to COVID was in spite of the fact it appears that we still have learned nothing, particularly when it comes to the authoritarian, narcissistic policies of our leaders who ignored our inherent civil liberties claiming in so many fine words that tyranny would mitigate the pandemic. It must also be noted that it is one thing for the public to accept what their elected representatives have mandated as opposed to why the first response of the State was to use the virus as a political weapon against the citizen by taking exceptional authoritarian measures to mitigate the pandemic, measures which are still in play as we are warned of future outbreaks. Yet we have demonstrable proof that these measures not only did not work but have caused horrendous ancillary damage to society. For over two years the “powers-that-be” have used COVID as an excuse to enforce measures that were more dangerous than the virus itself and now, they want us to forget it all happened. Well, no, I for one won't be forgetting that the State used an illness to grant itself unprecedented unconstitutional authority while undermining the economy and destroying our children's education. More are likely to die of harm from their heavy-handed policies and vaccine injuries than from the virus. More small businesses will never reopen than over any other period of time in my living memory. And damningly, more wealth was transferred to the super rich than has ever occurred in all of human history. On the strange death of free market economies, individual autonomy, and economic freedom in favour of a Fascistic form of social collectivism: Newt Gingrich once stated, "The future has publicists, but the past has prison guards, and those guards are mostly lobbyists who do everything they can to stop the future." This simple axiom perfectly defines why democracy is failing in the West. Our governments are deliberately being controlled by powerful multinational conglomerates and the wicked elite who are invested in them who use their clout to control governments! In 1776 the father of the Free Market economy, Adam Smith wrote in "The Wealth of Nations" that any gathering of businessmen is a conspiracy against the consumer. In this Postmodern age it has become a concerted plan to control the political process to serve the elite. Consequently, the elite's goals are invariably at odds with what serves the public good! “People of the same trade seldom meet together even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public or contrivance to raise prices” - Adam Smith from “The Wealth of Nations” Since Adam Smith couldn’t possibly have conceived of a gathering of the uber wealthy the size and scope of the meeting of the great and good in Davos, this manipulation of our political and bureaucratic class to serve the needs of the entitled 1% is unprecedented. Our elected leaders not only do not create policies which serve the needs of the public, they have betrayed their sacred duty to defend our democracies from Fascistic forces whose idea of building back better is to plunge the West into darkness and starvation in order to green the planet. These Fascists are in fact ghouls who despise the very foundations of Western Culture, our Christian heritage, and the achievements of the true liberal social progress since the age of enlightenment until now when this pack of dystopian power mongers are trying to drive the West back into the Dark Ages. And they’ve used the pandemic as an excuse to do so! Forgive and forget? I don’t think so!

Paine once asserted, “It is the duty of every man, as far as his ability extends, to detect and expose delusion and error.”, and “The moral duty of man consists of imitating the moral goodness and beneficence of God, manifested in the creation towards all his creatures. Everything of persecution and revenge between man and man, and everything of cruelty to animals is a violation of moral duty.” With that in mind this morning my wife had the following thoughts on the utter corruption of our current self-serving political class, “How did we get here? The explanation is multi-faceted but our path to ruin has gone something like this: 1. The abandonment of God 2. Replace of faith in Divine order with a belief in total State control 3. Accepting immigration from cultures with whom we have little to nothing in common thereby undermining our shared cultural social contract 4. Which results in the collectivist mindset of socialism replacing the glue of a shared heritage 5. Hatred of competence, individualism, and an entrepreneurial mindset Anne-Siri asserted that all five facets are connected, with each a declension leading to the undermining of the next virtue listed. The common denominator is the rejection of our own moral responsibility to God first, then to our fellows, since only then can we properly care for the natural world around us. It is only when our communities are anchored in a moral, just, and prosperous society with each individual voluntarily assuming their responsibility to God and their fellows that we will not constantly be fighting to keep the wolves at bay. Our elite class doesn’t care for the planet, if they did, they would permit us to prosper sufficiently such that we all will be stewards of the planet without worrying about how to keep warm, fed, and have a roof over our heads. Because that is what the ruling class is doing, impoverishing humanity so that they can live in unentitled wealth. This winter Europe is facing abysmal energy and food shortages due to the unworkable green energy policies of globalist minded governments who obviously have torn a page out of the same playbook. I have a gut feeling that Paine’s words are even more appropriate today. 250 years ago, they were delivered at a time when society was being tyrannised by an elite class who were about to be overthrown by force, and I suspect people will soon once again say no to tyranny!

The following has come to accurately describe life in the Western World today: “The official ideology abounds with contradictions even where there is no practical reason for them…These contradictions are not accidental.” - George Orwell, 1984. In that novel Orwell wrote about "memory holing", the process by which memories which do not serve the official narrative are made to disappear as though they never happened. But I remember and for my part will not allow us to forget. So, with apologies to Neil Oliver permit me to paraphrase his succinct and rather brutally honest summary of our current situation where our political class, senior bureaucrats, and their unelected globalist handlers are in fact not only creating the crises that we face but are doing so deliberately to transfer wealth into their hands.

The greatest commonly held fallacy of our age is the belief that the state is more honest and less self serving than private enterprise. Mixed economies where the State is deep in bed with multinational conglomerates have created the most corrupt economies of all time. Mixed economies place the State and private industries in an unholy alliance where they serve one another's interests rather than that of the public. Failed COVID policies are the direct result of the marriage of enormous multinational conglomerates like Pfizer BioNTech and Western governments. We even have good reason to suspect that Pfizer BioNTech's presence at Ground Zero of the outbreak in Wuhan may well have something to do with gain of function research conducted in full cooperation with the CCP. The CCP understands this fully and uses influence peddling to buy corrupt Western leaders who are selling out their own countries' interests to the Communist Chinese! Hilariously the belief that private enterprise free of state interference is evil because of its inherent greed is simple another way of restating the old socialist fallacy that Capitalism is evil. By the same reasoning the Socialist State being deemed to be free of greed and therefore moral demonstrates an utter ignorance of Socialism in practice. Socialism has murdered hundreds of millions and oppressed countless millions more while Capitalism is based upon uncoerced voluntary exchange where all parties benefit from said exchange otherwise those parties would no longer engage in doing business. When the State coerces people to use an untested product at the tax payers' expense, specifically an unproven vaccine, by making it impossible to keep your employment and travel without it, the State is engaging in tyranny. This also doesn't take into account the side effects of the vaccine which have led to many medical issues including heart disease. The form of socialism resulting from State and private industry combining to form a cooperative entity which doesn't answer to the people whose products and services we are forced to use is properly called Fascism! Words matter. Let's get our semantics straight. We are being railroaded against our will!

When virtue signalling utopians are leaving the dispossessed and marginalized to face unspeakable suffering due to their unworkable energy policies a thinking and caring person must ask, what actually imposes an existential threat to humanity? In an article entitled, “Eco-extremists are leading the world towards despair, poverty, and starvation: Utopian solutions for saving the planet are doomed to failure - and worse. We must wake up before it is too late” https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/10/28/eco-extremists-leading-world-towards-despair-poverty-starvation/ Dr. Jordan B. Peterson makes his case that “This winter, millions of British citizens, including children, will be tipped, or dumped, into energy poverty severe enough to risk permanent damage to their health. Cold, damp houses provide the perfect breeding ground for mould that not only causes respiratory distress, but renders houses essentially unlivable once established....” Never in the history of mankind have the leaders of the Western world marched so blindly in lockstep while pursuing climate goals which are totally unfounded in the Laws of Nature. The very laws which the scientific method tells us governs thermodynamics. Given the fact that there is no such thing as a free lunch and that there are inevitable biproducts of the conversion of matter into energy, our leaders are pursuing is an unscientific dream. Moreover, why do so few among us question their reasoning? How has humanity come to trust them so blindly, particularly since their COVID policies have done far more damage to public health, education, social well-being, and the economy than their attempts to mitigate the virus proved to be effective? I have the following three thoughts on that matter. Why blind obedience and cowardice are synonymous: i): If maintaining your commitment to freedom against tyranny and the lies upon which tyranny is founded hasn't cost you dearly then you're living a lie. ii): Any attempt to defray or avoid the consequences of standing up for the truth is nothing other than cowardice. iii): If you are unwilling to risk causing offense to people living in a delusion then you're participating in that delusion. https://therealistsadvocate.blogspot.com/2022/10/what-actually-imposes-existential.html

Separatist Members of Parliament who are in open rebellion against the Dominion of Canada seek to undo our connections to mother country (which are purely ceremonial by the way) even though they have the gall to call Quebec a separate nation within Canada! Can you imagine the outrage if Anglophone Canadians were to do the same? https://nationalpost.com/opinion/yves-francois-blanchet-canada-must-abandon-the-monarchy-for-the-good-of-democracy?fbclid=IwAR2Y51h7THRcJK7Re06KGIxqxuzWuWzjWjIQmpBwsBUFITzymJcPV-DdZwo#Echobox=1666778654

Everything those who are controlling the hearings do have but one goal, namely, to advance the Cultural Marxist Revolution. Contradictions are an essential part of that process since belief in the revolution must supersede belief in demonstrable fact. This is an undeniable truth that anyone who has studied Marxism ought to know. Up is down, left is right, male is female, national borders mean nothing, the Rule of Law is whatever those in charge of the State run apparatus say it is now. If you understand these fundamental truths, you'll understand why the hearings taking place at present in the grossly dysfunctional city of Ottawa have found no evidence that the Freedom Convoy posed a threat to the nation's capital. They fully intend that there ought not to be anything but innuendo and false allegations because those are the only things which can further the Cultural Marxist Revolution! Has anyone noticed that when Freedom lovers protest, they don't damage anything yet when climate change activists protest, they tear things down, destroy precious paintings and statues, and blow-up pipelines? Notice that our government does nothing to condemn violent activists while condemning people who love liberty for demanding nothing other than the government follow the rule of law. Therefore, it is obvious that the only thing that our government favours is an attack on the rule of law because it is the law which poses a challenge to their absolutism! But I'll take it far further than that. The left versus right political divide is an inheritance of the French Revolution where those who believed the executive branch of government was supreme sat to the right of the King and those who believed a National Assembly had the right to veto the King sat to his left. That would make most conservatives and libertarians radical leftists. So let us clarify our terminology since virtually every bad idea is French and frankly that continues to affect Canadian politics. Let's face it, the French detest the Westminster Parliamentary System, Anglophone Canadians, and the Rule of English Common Law. The truth needs to be stated, radical Quebecois like Trudeau hate us. They have never forgiven us for defeating them on the Plains of Abraham. Yet after this defeat they were permitted to keep their culture intact. A far better deal than they have given us given their constant attack on Anglophone Canadians. They were allowed to keep the form of feudalism known as the seigneurial system which was an institutional form of land distribution established in New France in 1627 which wasn’t officially abolished until 1854. In New France, 80 per cent of the population lived in rural areas governed by this system of land distribution and occupation. They also were permitted to pay tithes to the Roman Church. They were permitted to keep their language intact and all their cultural traditions and holidays. Despite this they have the unmitigated gall to declare themselves a separate nation within the Dominion of Canada. If Anglos were to do the same there would be outrage. Face it, Canada's problem is French. It is the reason that oil rich provinces are despised by the Laurentian Elite and the powerful Quebecois interests who sit in our national parliament as avowed separatists. Radical socialism’s foremost characteristics are greed, resentment, and envy! I repeat my assertion from yesterday, Quebec traded its love of and domination by the Roman Church for the love of statism and total state control. So, should we be surprised they attempt to undermine the rest of the Canadian economy while at the same time demand enormous reparations be paid to their province? And so, until these essential contradictions are addressed, the Cultural Marxist Revolution marches on unabated as the nation panders to the radicals in the Laurentian Consensus. As noted British Conservative Dr. David Starkey now famously asserted: “All bad ideas are French. It is an absolute principle of human existence. From David Starkey on The Brendan O Neill Show: https://www.spiked-online.com/podcast-episode/lockdown-is-the-revenge-of-the-elites/ Moreover the Bolshevik Revolution was nothing other than an attempt to complete the process begun by the French Revolution where an never ending revolution is the entire point since the realization of their utopian dreams always lie somewhere over the horizon. Constant destabilizing of established order is how the revolution avows to advance itself. Postmodernism and Cultural Marxism are merely steps along the path to utter totalitarian despotic control of humanity.

Canada’s Louis the XVI moment: "All bad ideas are French. It is an absolute principle of human existence." ~ David Starkey on The Brendan O'Neill Show: What happens when the elite ignores the 3rd Estate ought to be a lesson which every Frenchman, Englishman, and American should know! Louis the XVI was in favour of reform but his hatred of the British led him to borrow money to fund the American Revolution which required him to tax the nobility, something they refused to tolerate since they weren't about to forgo their privilege. This resulted in dumping the debt via taxation onto the 3rd Estate, namely the common person who was already suffering due to recession and inflation. When the elite dismissed them ‘en masse’ they formed a national assembly and demanded a constitution which would force the elite to answer to the people, making the French Revolution an inevitability.

We live in a time when the critical answers to the great questions of today are not only never forthcoming, but you'll also get fired for asking these very questions that the state refuses to answer. The authorities have created the perfect damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario. Of course, to remedy this situation we first need to ask the correct questions in an atmosphere where determining the root causes of our problems is the actual goal. Sadly, this is not the case. Anecdotal tale of ignorance and bliss. The EU's vaccine purchases are being investigated The EU's joint prosecution has opened an investigation into the European Commission's procurement of corona vaccines worth billions of euros. - This exceptional confirmation comes after there has been extremely great public interest, says a brief statement from the EU prosecution office EPPO on Friday. - No further details will be released at this stage, adds the EPPO. It is unclear what or who is the target of the investigation. The European Commission has negotiated and fulfilled contracts for several hundred million vaccine doses on behalf of the EU. The 27 member states themselves have been responsible for purchasing the vaccines from the EU's central warehouses. Norway has also participated in the EU's vaccine cooperation and has gained access to corona vaccines for the Norwegian population through an agreement with the EU. Text messages An agreement with Biontech/Pfizer to purchase 1.8 billion doses from spring 2021 has been the subject of particular public attention. The value of the agreement was estimated at the time to be 35 billion euros. The New York Times has written that personal contact between Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen was necessary to nail the deal. Journalists have not been given access to text messages exchanged between the two, despite requests for public access. Investigates, among other things, corruption A spokesperson for the European Commission tells the AFP news agency that all questions must be directed to the EPPO, as it is an independent prosecuting authority. - With regard to the SMS case, I would like to emphasize that the president did not negotiate the contracts, adds the spokesperson. The EPPO was opened in 2021 with headquarters in Luxembourg. The body is authorized to investigate and bring to court cases concerning crime where the EU budget is involved, for example cases involving corruption or misuse of EU funds. So far, 83 percent of the EU's population has been fully vaccinated against covid-19. https://www.vg.no/nyheter/utenriks/i/APPPRj/eus-vaksinekjoep-etterforskes?fbclid=IwAR0rcIy-HQOh5N9urC8O9VrF8v5W0pfUhCp4DdtIfNnVmY9l1_qnOH0aWBw

In this short podcast I will give you ten reasons why I am an anti-socialist, then add a thought or two on the matter, after which I will direct you to watch a brilliant interview between John Anderson who is the former Deputy Prime Minister of Australia and Victor Davis Hanson in which they discuss the arrogance of the Postmodern global elite who are placing the Liberal based world order at risk while pursuing ideological nonsense. The careless behaviour of the ruling elite belies their own ideology even as they blame their failings on the rest of us. My ten reasons for being an anti-socialist are: i): I'm temperamentally averse to marching in lockstep with others ii): I cannot subscribe to an ideology which demands that I surrender my autonomy to the State iii): I cannot subscribe to the premise that life is a zero-sum game iv): I cannot ignore that socialism's primary doctrine is completely materialistic since redistributing material wealth lies at the core of said doctrine v): I cannot ignore that making the State responsible for the redistribution of wealth has always and in every instance created a corrupt class of elites who profit unfairly from said redistribution while demonstrating utter disregard for public expenditure vi): I cannot ignore the fact that socialism wages war on competence by promoting people based on ideology rather than by ability and expertise vii): I cannot ignore the fact that socialists show more contempt for the successful and entrepreneurial than they demonstrate genuine sympathy for the dispossessed viii): I cannot ignore the fact that the dispossessed fair far better in a free market economy with competition than in tightly regulated markets ix): I cannot ignore the fact that socialism expands the size of the State and its control over us via an ever expanding and wasteful bureaucracy thereby robbing those who produce by giving resources to the non-productive x): I cannot ignore the fact that socialism's essential juju is one of control rather than of the much-touted liberation the ideology espouses Socialism is therefore a materialistic denial of the spiritual which has resulted in a rejection of the empirical causing man to embrace the delusional. These statements of facts reveal to us why chromosomes are no longer considered to define sexuality and why people like me who believe in personal autonomy, individual accountability, and free markets are labelled as Fascists by those Neo-Totalitarians who normalize gender dysphoria and insist that the State controlling and regulating the economy to death is somehow Anti-Fascist. This, my dears, is the fulfilment of a mass formation of psychosis and it is on full display for all to see. In this clip, historian Professor Victor Davis Hanson describes the long tradition of elite ideologues who control the decisions of individuals. Hanson argues being grounded in reality by understanding the limits of human nature in a tragic world is the solution to being governed by utopian ideology. Victor Davis Hanson describes the moral hypocrisy of the elite-left, and how they use power and influence to control the middle and lower classes. This comes at a time when the wealthy pollute far more than the average citizen, but justify their actions anyway, while piling blame on everyone else. Watch the full episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmMNVEv6fI8&t=0s Professor Victor Davis Hanson is an American classicist, military historian, columnist, and farmer. He has been a commentator on contemporary politics for the National Review and The Washington Times and is currently the Martin and Illie Anderson Senior Fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution.

I invite you to watch my entire podcast as I speak about why an entire society which represses viewing the world through the necessary metaphorical lens of archetypical imagery will result in the social pathology of mass formation. According to Jung archetypes are patterns that repeat themselves in the collective unconscious of human beings. This could be in the form of dreams, stories, art, or even in myths (including religious ones), which do not seem to have cultural boundaries. These are then seen as universal and thus embody a hereditary factor of the human psyche. Jung's first findings link the archetypes to one's cognitive, emotional, and behavioural tendencies that make themselves more apparent at certain points in time. However, whether one displays these traits depends largely on the culture that one is raised in. Carl Jung breaks down this theory in his book "The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious." This publication takes a close look at the collective unconscious which is something shared by all people throughout the history of humanity in this author's opinion. Besides, you will find an analysis of popular stories and other cultural and artistic representations, like the mandala, for example. But for the sake of this discussion, we will focus on two of the archetypes most pertinent to this discussion. The Father: The father archetype stands for authority, protection, law, and discipline, just to name a few facets of this figure. Associated with order, dominance, and productivity and in stories, the King often represents this character. A healthy father image manifests itself as the good King and when that archetype is not properly integrated into our personality it will manifest itself as a tyrant. The 20th century has provided us with more than sufficient examples of such in Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Pol Pot, etc. However, despite all the Postmodern assertion to the opposite this is not what we are seeing today which has become endemic to Western society. The Mother: The mother archetype embodies unconditional love, someone who is both nurturing and compassionate. In children's books, this figure often appears in the form of a fairy godmother who has magical powers. The ultimate archetype of the good mother is Mary whose sacrifice was the ultimate one any mother could make even as she watched her innocent and blameless Son betrayed and offered up on the Cross where He who knew no sin became sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. On the other hand, the dark side of the matron is the evil stepmother. The witch with the gingerbread house who invites children in to fatten them up to consume them. This is the Oedipal mother. The mother who makes a perverse bargain with her children to keep them in an unhealthy relationship where she feeds off their need of her like a vampire keeping them forever in co-dependent need and incapable of individuating. This is the Oedipal reality I discovered in Vemork when I realized that Fascism, Communism, and an Oedipal feminized society had created the perfect blending of both major branches of totalitarianism under the kid gloved authoritarianism of an all-encompassing Oedipal State which kept Norwegians in constant co-dependent need. Here I invite you to watch my entire podcast as I speak about why an entire society which represses viewing the world through the necessary metaphorical lens of archetypical imagery will result in the social pathology of mass formation. https://healthywaymag.com/psychology/carl-jung-archetypes#:~:text=Father%20The%20father%20archetype%20stands%20for%20authority%2C%20protection%2C,-in%20stories%2C%20the%20King%20often%20represents%20this%20character.

We are betrayed and all we held to be inviolable is broken, corrupted, and defiled! And it has been defiled by the very jokers we inanely put in charge of protecting what we believed to be inviolable! How do I know this? There is an idea in the New Testament that the truth will pierce through all the BS thrown our way which attempts to disguise the actual motives behind the actions of men. It reads, in Hebrews 4:12, KJV: “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” I wish to offer my listeners and readers a principled position on the environment. One which has helped to define Environmental Science since it was first published. That is Barry Commoner’s Four Laws of Ecology which is one of Commoner's lasting legacies. He wrote these four laws of ecology in The Closing Circle published in 1971. The four laws are: i): Everything Is Connected to Everything Else. There is one ecosphere for all living organisms and what affects one, affects all. ii): Everything Must Go Somewhere. There is no "waste" in nature and there is no "away" to which things can be thrown. iii): Nature Knows Best. Humankind has fashioned technology to improve upon nature, but such change in a natural system is, says Commoner, "likely to be detrimental to that system." iv): There Is No Such Thing as a Free Lunch. Exploitation of nature will inevitably involve the conversion of resources from useful to useless forms. This last principle is based upon the laws of conservation of matter and energy. Green energy is nothing other than a massive attempt to get a free lunch. It is the unscientifically fanatical thinking of the Church of St. Greta of Thunberg. Her dogma and doctrine is a quasi-religious fanatical delusion replete with righteous outrage, claims of moral superiority, ecstatic outbursts of fire, brimstone, hellfire, and end of the world apocalyptic visions! And that is my opinion! And as for the word of truth discerning the thought and intentions of our governing class, follow the money. Whose pockets were being lines by this faux pursuit of green energy while giving corrupt communist tyrannies like China a free pass to pollute even as it sold us the very technology to “go green”. If that technology actually worked to “go green”, then why are the Chinese communists not using it instead of burning more and more coal? And that is not an opinion, that is a discernible statement of demonstrable fact which clearly indicates that the intent of their hearts is certainly not to save the planet!

I have often mentioned that in my previous life I taught problem solving as part of my gig as an ISO auditor and quality methods coach. Root cause problem solving helps us to avoid confusing the symptoms of a problem with the problem’s actual root cause(s). Which is why I attempt to get to the very root of our present social discord, for this discord has reached a fevered pitch. It is only once we ascertain the source of the issues with which we are confronted that we may begin to implement solutions that won’t merely act as bandages applied to the root causes many symptoms. Which is why I so often warn about playing whack-a-mole with the Devil. Our ideological opponents constantly invent new ways to attack us but nevertheless, each new attack has the same source, so let’s examine it.

It has become abundantly clear that the practitioners of Progressivism have rejected debate free from ad hominem attacks even as they silence open discourse. The reason for this is simple, Classical Liberal and Conservative values cannot peacefully coexist alongside of their belief system. Since they view life as a zero-sum game the will to power is their dominating political motivator. This idea of will to power goes so deep in their ideology that they believe the use of language itself is merely a means of exercising power over others rather than a means of conveying truth to further mutual understanding. Since truth and lies are opposites, so are the voluntary means by which we wish to create a healthy civil society versus the coercion which resides at the very core of their political ideology. Ours is based upon exercising free will, while theirs upon the use of arbitrary authoritative fiat. It is therefore impossible for these opposing principles to peacefully coexist. Either we will win the hearts and minds of our fellows through making a compelling argument for individual liberty, personal autonomy, and traditional Western values or the Postmodern social collectivist types will win by authoritatively forcing their views onto us. I invite everyone to look at how Postmodern WOKE ideology has come to infect every social institution required for us to remain living at liberty where freedom of conscience guides how each may choose how to navigate life for themself. Neutrality has therefore become impossible. Those of us who hold Conservative and Classical Liberal values did not declare this war. If we lose the battle for the minds and hearts of our fellows’ traditional Western values will die and we will find ourselves in a radical cultural and economic revolution where the diametric opposite of progress will become our fate. And, even as we watch our sacred institutions, institutions such as the Canadian healthcare industry which was once the envy of the entire world being mismanaged and corrupted, we will be told that the ruin of all that we hold to be dear is to be called progress by people who couldn’t organize a piss-up in a brewery!

The great Twitter irony is that a platform which so lends itself to ridicule and the ridiculous, a place where aspersions are so easily cast and valid arguments so readily downplayed, that despite this, #TrudeauMustGo was trending number one in Canadian content the other day after the Neo-Marxist leader of ours was recorded drunkenly singing Bohemian Rapsody by Queen at a Karaoke Bar in London while there for Her Majesty’s funeral. Trudeau is a tone deaf, narcissistic clown who is completely out of touch with the “it” of a thing. Mr. Trudeau, Canadians aren’t about to consult some yet to be written Postmodern dictionary which can define the level of your sheer narcissistic hubris and the vitriolic contempt that you so obviously hold for those you were elected to serve. #TrudeauMustGo indeed, I am hopeful that my fellow Canadians are no longer willing to worship at the idol of statism. Trudeau’s failing Big Government policies have, as social collectivist experiments always do, have had the opposite result of his much-lauded claims of creating utopia. Claims which have gone up in the smoke of inflation, fiduciary malfeasance, unworkable energy policies, printing money out of thin air, while simultaneously demanding we use impossible pronouns which ignore the ”it” of a thing. Trudeau, you it is up!
