***EXCLUSIVE TO RUMBLE*** I review that JW.org article "Why Is Politics So Divisive?—What Does the Bible Say?" (https://www.jw.org/en/library/series/more-topics/why-politics-so-divisive-bible-say/) *** Political & Para-Political Dissent: "Dissent: An unwillingness to cooperate with an established source of authority, which can be social, cultural, or governmental." https://www.britannica.com/topic/dissent-political *Para-Political refers to non political phenomena which has political consequences. The Greek POLIS: https://www.worldhistory.org/Polis/ "IN PRACTICE, WHATEVER THE POLITICAL SYSTEM ADOPTED, POLITICAL POWER WAS DOMINATED BY A FEW ARISTOCRATIC FAMILIES." Corruption & Political Neutrality (JW.ORG) https://youtu.be/K-NXRLAt4dA *** As a tangient, I briefly discuss my understanding of the origins of the Police as a State entity in the Roman Empire. Mary Beard is the expert on Roman History whose work I have studied. SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome. Mary Beard, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28789711-spqr Religions of Rome, Volume 1: A History. Mary Beard. John North. Simon Price. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/167946.Religions_of_Rome_Volume_1 https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/167945.Religions_of_Rome_Volume_2 *** Other perspectives on the History of The Police in the Western world: "In 7 BCE Augustus divided the city of Rome into 14 regiones (wards), each consisting of vici (precincts) overseen by vicomagistri, who were responsible for fire protection and other administrative and religious duties. In 6 CE, after a particularly bad fire, Augustus expanded the city’s fire brigade into a corps of vigiles (firefighters and watchmen), consisting of seven squads, or cohorts, of 1,000 freedmen each. Each cohort was responsible for fire and, especially at night, police protection in two regiones. As a further measure to impose order on the often violent streets of Rome—a city of nearly one million people—Augustus created three cohorts of police, which were part of the army of the state and were placed under the command of the urban prefect. Those cohorts could, in turn, call upon the emperor’s own bodyguard (the Praetorian Guard) for assistance." https://www.britannica.com/topic/police/The-history-of-policing-in-the-West ---- "The origins of modern-day policing can be traced back to the "Slave Patrol." The earliest formal slave patrol was created in the Carolinas in the early 1700s with one mission: to establish a system of terror and squash slave uprisings with the capacity to pursue, apprehend, and return runaway slaves to their owners. Tactics included the use of excessive force to control and produce desired slave behavior." https://naacp.org/find-resources/history-explained/origins-modern-day-policing --- The Invention of the Police https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/07/20/the-invention-of-the-police "To police is to maintain law and order, but the word derives from polis—the Greek for “city,” or “polity”—by way of politia, the Latin for “citizenship,” and it entered English from the Middle French police, which meant not constables but government. “The police,” as a civil force charged with deterring crime, came to the United States from England and is generally associated with monarchy—“keeping the king’s peace”—which makes it surprising that, in the antimonarchical United States, it got so big, so fast. The reason is, mainly, slavery." https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/07/20/the-invention-of-the-police

***EXCLUSIVE TO RUMBLE*** ____ *** Factual detail: J.P. Morgan was a lifelong member and leader of the EPISCOPAL CHURCH in America, subset of the Anglican Communion*** ---- In this video I explaim in more detail the curricular content as well as Business philosophy from Amsterdam Institute for Technical Analysis where I attended Business School in 2000. The main purpose of AITA was the promotion of Techhnical Analysis and I believe they published a quarterly journal on the topic. Thay also operated the business training program for young adult entrepeneurs that I participated in. "Technical analysis is a trading discipline employed to evaluate investments and identify trading opportunities in price trends and patterns seen on charts. Technical analysts believe past trading activity and price changes of a security can be valuable indicators of the security's future price movements." --- Tulipmanie: "Tulip mania (Dutch: tulpenmanie) was a period during the Dutch Golden Age when contract prices for some bulbs of the recently introduced and fashionable tulip reached extraordinarily high levels. The major acceleration started in 1634 and then dramatically collapsed in February 1637. It is generally considered to have been the first recorded speculative bubble or asset bubble in history. In many ways, the tulip mania was more of a then-unknown socio-economic phenomenon than a significant economic crisis. It had no critical influence on the prosperity of the Dutch Republic, which was one of the world's leading economic and financial powers in the 17th century, with the highest per capita income in the world from about 1600 to about 1720. The term tulip mania is now often used metaphorically to refer to any large economic bubble when asset prices deviate from intrinsic values." (Wikipedia) WAS THE TULIP BUBBLE REALLY A BUBBLE? https://www.adamsmith.org/blog/was-the-tulip-bubble-really-a-bubble Dutch East India Company https://www.britannica.com/topic/Dutch-East-India-Company --- "J.P. Morgan was a lifelong member of the Episcopal Church, and by 1890 was one of its most influential leaders. He was a founding member of the Church Club of New York, an Episcopal private member's club in Manhattan. Morgan was appointed as one of the first laymen on the committee that created the 1892 revision of the Book of Common Prayer, where he petitioned for the creation of a special limited collectible printing that he later financed. In 1910, the General Convention of the Episcopal Church established a commission, proposed by Bishop Charles Brent, to implement a world conference of churches to address their differences in their “faith and order.” Morgan was so impressed by the proposal for such a conference that he contributed $100,000 (equivalent to $2,282,400 in 2022) to finance the commission's work."

In this video I explain Marxist objections to the social-liberal concept of "post-democracy"... ---- "If we are not to mock at common sense and history, it is obvious that we cannot speak of “pure democracy” as long as different classes exist; we can only speak of class democracy. (Let us say in parenthesis that “pure democracy” is not only an ignorant phrase, revealing a lack of understanding both of the class struggle and of the nature of the state, but also a thrice-empty phrase, since in communist society democracy will wither away in the process of changing and becoming a habit, but will never be “pure” democracy.) “Pure democracy” is the mendacious phrase of a liberal who wants to fool the workers. History knows of bourgeois democracy which takes the place of feudalism, and of proletarian democracy which takes the place of bourgeois democracy....Take the bourgeois parliament. Can it be that the learned Kautsky has never heard that the more highly democracy is developed, the more the bourgeois parliaments are subjected by the stock exchange and the bankers? This does not mean that we must not make use of bourgeois parliament.... But it does mean that only a liberal can forget the historical limitations and conventional nature of the bourgeois parliamentary system as Kautsky does. Even in the most democratic bourgeois state the oppressed people at every step encounter the crying contradiction between the formal equality proclaimed by the “democracy” of the capitalists and the thousands of real limitations and subterfuges which turn the proletarians into wage-slaves. It is precisely this contradiction that is opening the eyes of the people to the rottenness, mendacity and hypocrisy of capitalism. It is this contradiction that the agitators and propagandists of socialism are constantly exposing to the people, in order to prepare them for revolution!..." —V.I. Lenin, The Proletarian Revolution and the Renegade Kautsky (1918)

In this video I discuss my experience meeting ethnic Hazara & Pashtun young men in Sweden in 2018 and 2019-20 and their mass refoulement by the Swedish State to the Afghanistan war zone. I made a previous video about this for my YouTube aesthetic expression channel: https://youtu.be/3ZqXInpD-sU https://asylemotsverige.blogspot.com/p/we-resisted.html ----- "Afghanistan is a multiethnic and mostly tribal society. The population of the country consists of numerous ethnolinguistic groups: mainly the Pashtun, Tajik, Hazara, and Uzbek and minorities of Aimaq, Turkmen, Baloch, Pashai, Nuristani, Gujjar, Brahui, Qizilbash, Pamiri, Kyrgyz, Sadat, and others. Altogether they make up the Afghan people. The former Afghan National Anthem and the Afghan Constitution (before 2021) each mention fourteen of them, though the lists are not exactly the same." "Afghans in Iran (Persian: افغانها در ایران) are citizens of Afghanistan who are temporarily residing in Iran as refugees or asylum seekers. They form the largest percent of the Afghan diaspora. The first wave of Afghans were admitted to Iran after the start of the Soviet–Afghan War in 1979. According to Afghanistan's Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), there are approximately 3 million Afghan citizens in Iran as of January 2023, most of whom were born and raised in Iran during the last four decades."

"Post-Democracy" by Colin Crouch (2000) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1470863.Post_Democracy "Post-Democracy is a polemical work that goes beyond current complaints about the failings of our democracy and explores the deeper social and economic forces that account for the current malaise. Colin Crouch argues that the decline of those social classes which had made possible an active and critical mass politics has combined with the rise of global capitalism to produce a self-referential political class more concerned with forging links with wealthy business interests than with pursuing political programmes which meet the concerns of ordinary people. He shows how, in some respects, politics at the dawn of the twenty-first century returns us to a world familiar well before the start of the twentieth, when politics was a game played among elites. However, Crouch maintains that the experience of the twentieth century remains salient and it reminds us of possibilities for the revival of politics. This engaging book will prove challenging to all those who claim that advanced societies have reached a virtual best of all possible democratic worlds, and will be compelling reading for anyone interested in the shape of twenty-first-century politics." ---- Sweden has THE GALL to call Macron "repressive" ! https://asylemotsverige.blogspot.com/2023/05/sweden-has-gall-to-call-macron.html
