People In Costumes

Posted on 10/10/101003/19/2024 by Nagolbud

Food for thought…. most think the Constitution is the foundation of the USA. Those people clearly didn’t read it very well because inside that document it clearly states the foundation for the USA is taxes. A group of random people gave the right and authority to another group of random people to tax another random group of people. Why on earth would someone have random authority to tax me? Have you ever asked yourself that question?

Most people don’t. They ignore YouTube clips of the IRS literally stating income taxes are voluntary. They live in a state of stupefied zombie land. The only real thing they’ve maintained from their public school education is the adherence to authority. Similar circumstances in college as well, as it’s more of a brainwashing army camp as they deprive those of sleep, funds, and surround them with alcohol and drugs.

Sounds like Vietnam when they tricked a nation into war with yet another country while using it’s soldiers as disposable pawns. Betrayed by the idea of fighting for freedom with no hope upon return. Not only that but gunning down students at Kent State University for protesting the war. Abuse by the government on all sides against even it’s own soldiers and future liberal government lovers.

Men in dresses sit on thrones as they cast judgement on those around them for silly things like fishing without a permit or traveling without permission. They might as well wear a fake wig too and really play the part; one with a bit of curls for their douche bag personality of narcissism to leech off his own local populace.

Similarly his errand boys for revenue collection wear a cute matching uniform depending on their department. They act hard and tough like their James Bond from a terrorist plot, thwarting your bombing attempt when in reality it was just a bag of weed. They march around obeying every order claiming “I’m just doing my job”.

A Case Against Statism Refuting Government

People in costumes running around with some preconceived public education authority as if they have any right or authority to tell another human being they can’t smoke weed or carry a gun for self defense. Pretending they have some parental control over every human being they meet because the “government” told them it’s their job. At no point in history has this ever ended on a positive note. You will not find a single civilization in history that could maintain “government”. The reason is because it’s an illusion sold to the people to turn them into willing consensual slaves.

No one in their right mind would willingly give over their hard earned money for taxes, especially income taxes which go directly to war funds. This is where the cognitive dissonance comes in. Most can agree they don’t want to pay taxes but they make up some stupid excuse about paying for schools and “educating children” just like them! They’re so educated they pay a percentage of their income to the government for war!

Wow I wish I was so edumacated I could pay taxes too! I wish I was so educated I could get permission to build a home. Boy golly I wish I was super smart enough to get that piece of plastic that says I have permission to drive a commercial vehicle just for personal travel. Interesting how I’m too stupid to figure out that fishing permit form. I really wish I was educated like you in your fancy skool so I was so super smart.

When you really just sit back and think about it. Washington D.C. doesn’t even make sense. Washington District of Colombia. Seriously just stop and think about it. Really. It doesn’t even make sense. Not even a little. And that little district claims political and legal authority over the rest of the country. What’s even funnier is if everyone in your town turned off their mainstream media and politics they would be free.

If everyone in the entire state turned off their television, political left vs right paradigm. Turn offed their government worship and just went about their life… literally things would only get better. You would still have the do good white knight willing to protect his community, as would many good fathers. And you would still have thieves and murderers ignoring the law of the land. The fight of good vs evil doesn’t disappear with government, but certainly a large evil disappears when living without government. A freedom to build and create your own life.

The reality is with government it’s almost impossible to simply survive for the lower class. And the leading cause of death, of all time, of everything. Government is literally the leading cause of death in history, and under legal fictions, roman curia, or similar Vatican law, governments are mere corporations. Let that sink in next time you clap for your political puppet.

The Government Died for Your Sins

Posted on 10/10/101003/19/2024 by Nagolbud

Having a conversation with a statist can be quite difficult. Most of their responses and cliche “just follow the rules” rhetoric has been created for them. Their opinions, thoughts, and actions: all controlled by statist propaganda burned into their skull as a child in government schools. They continuously pop out ridiculous statements about how they are a perfect law abiding citizen and that anyone that breaks a rule or regulation is now a full blown criminal that deserves to die, get tazed, or slammed to the ground by 6 sociopaths in costumes.

Did you just do 56 in a 55? Well than it’s YOUR fault the cop used his emergency lights in a non-emergency to collect revenue, it’s YOUR fault he pulled you out, and it’s YOUR fault he tazed you for asking questions. Don’t break the “rules” if you don’t wanna get tazed and kidnapped. <- This is the type of logic these people have. These are the types of arguments they make. There is no reasoning with this type of person.

They sole heartedly believe the government is their savior. Their actions and words portray the government as the reason they can survive. They act as if the government died for the sins and paid the penalty for them on the cross. Forget Jesus Christ and the truth, government and the pope died for my sins. No matter what they do, no matter how many people they kill and hurt, the statist will blindly follow. Look at ANY genocide in history. Pick just one out of the thousands and thousands of government sanctioned murder of their own people. Was Hitler really the bad guy? I doubt he personally gassed a single Jew. He may have ordered it, but a bunch of statist idiots carried out those orders…

Why? The belief in government. I’m just doing my job. I’m just following orders.

These people have no empathy. They have no human emotions. They can’t feel joy or happiness. Their entire lives are wrapped around themselves. They feed off the discomfort and misfortune of others and literally get off on harassing others or bringing them down. Any position of power is a constant train of this supply as they can use it to hurt others. This is the constant onslaught of non-sense, delusional mentalities, and narcissistic supply grabs statist use in any conversation. Let me guess? I’m racist. ><

I remember asking myself a few years ago, how on earth could an entire country rise up and do something as horrid as kill their own people. Kill innocent people for living their lives. How could this be possible?

It becomes so painstakingly obvious how it does happen. How it continues to happen. How it never really stopped happening and simply moves to another location. People have a blind faith in government. They worship at the feet of government. Disobeying “authority” is not even an option for these people. Instead of saying “no” they choose to carry out these acts on innocent human beings. Whether the excuse be fighting for freedom, democracy, or officer safety the results are the same. Freedom is slavery and slavery is freedom to the statist. Let me guess? I’m anti-American. ><

The reality is America was free at one point. There was peace between Europeans running from catholic crusaders and natives offering them a home. There was community. Personal responsibility. Freedom to worship Jesus Christ. Then the pope sent a bunch Jesuits over and had a constitution ritual, creating a corporation known as the United States of America. British statist then began indoctrinating the public into this new religion of government. The “militia” were run by Washington and the likes, all working for the pope. A lot of real soldiers diaries have comments tuned to stories showing how the real free Americans showed up to these events only to leave knowing they were shills for the pope. Most of these stories of the founding fathers, or prophets as the statist would say, are make believe. They were not about freedom. They were about control.

The best slaves are the ones that think they are free.

Thinking a constitution or piece of paper gives you rights or protections is delusional. And thinking it’s going to limit or stop a government that created the ritual from invading your personal freedom is down right insane.

Decoding the Impact of Large Corporations on State Misconduct

Posted on 01/10/100103/19/2024 by Ninjemon

In an era where multinational corporations wield unprecedented power, their influence over governmental policies and actions has become a pivotal topic of debate. This influence, while beneficial in terms of economic growth and job creation, also carries the potential for fostering state misconduct through corruption, policy manipulation, and undue leverage over political processes. The complex interplay between corporate interests and public governance raises critical questions about the integrity and efficacy of state functions in representing the public interest.

Power Dynamics Between Corporations and Governments
The interplay between corporate might and governmental authority is marked by significant power imbalances, fundamentally altering the landscape of public governance. Governments have the capability to legislate, regulate, and enforce laws across various sectors. Conversely, large corporations control immense economic resources, enabling them to wield considerable influence over governmental decisions and policies.

This dynamic often propels governments into positions where they are incentivized, whether through direct or indirect means, to prioritize the objectives of large corporations over the collective needs and welfare of the public. Such prioritization can manifest in regulatory decisions that favor profit maximization over crucial societal concerns, including environmental conservation, public health safety, and the protection of workers’ rights. This imbalance not only challenges the capacity of governments to act as impartial arbiters in the public interest but also raises concerns about the overall accountability of elected officials to their constituents.

The essence of this power struggle reveals the underlying tension in modern governance, the need to balance economic growth facilitated by corporate entities against the imperative to safeguard public welfare and maintain ethical governance practices. This complex relationship between corporate power and public policy underscores a broader debate on the role of government in an increasingly corporatized economy and the mechanisms through which public institutions can resist undue corporate influence to truly serve the public good.

Lobbying and the Manipulation of Policy-Making Processes
Lobbying serves as a direct channel through which corporations can influence legislative and regulatory frameworks to their advantage. By deploying lobbyists, businesses engage in dialogue with lawmakers, pressing for the advancement of laws and regulations that align with their strategic interests. This practice, while recognized as a standard component of the “democratic” system, edges into contentious territory when it disproportionately favors corporate ambitions at the expense of the general welfare.

The issue intensifies when the financial heft of large corporations translates into a dominating presence in lobbying efforts, overshadowing voices from civil society and smaller entities. This imbalance can distort the legislative process, prioritizing the desires of the economically powerful while sidelining critical societal needs such as consumer protection, environmental sustainability, and social equity. Moreover, the opacity often surrounding lobbying activities adds a layer of complexity, with the specific influences and outcomes of such engagements frequently remaining obscured from public scrutiny.

This lack of transparency not only challenges the accountability of public officials but also hampers the ability of citizens to fully understand the forces shaping the policies that govern their lives. As corporations continue to assert their presence in the halls of power, the task of ensuring that policy-making remains a balanced and inclusive process becomes increasingly critical, demanding vigilant oversight and robust mechanisms for public participation and accountability.

The Role of Campaign Finance in Corporate Influence
Campaign finance emerges as a potent tool for corporations seeking to mold politics to their benefit. Through substantial donations to political figures or backing political action committees (PACs), these entities carve pathways to favor with lawmakers, who may, in turn, advocate for policies that align with corporate agendas. This exchange disrupts the foundational democratic ethos, spotlighting a concerning shift where the allegiance of elected officials leans more towards their benefactors than to the electorate they represent.

The substantial flow of corporate capital into the political arena skews policy directions, potentially marginalizing the broader public interest in favor of corporate gains. This dynamic not only misshapes policy decisions, reflecting a bias towards the interests of the financially influential, but it also erodes the fabric of public trust in governance. Citizens, witnessing the sway that monetary contributions have over policy and political loyalty, might grow increasingly skeptical of the authenticity behind political actions and decisions.

The implications of such financial involvement are profound, touching on the essence of integrity and challenging the notion that governance is primarily for the people. In navigating these waters, the pressing concern becomes how to realign the focus of elected officials with the public welfare, ensuring that governance is not swayed unduly by the financial might of corporations but is instead responsive and accountable to the needs and aspirations of the citizenry at large.

Collusion in Contracts and Public Procurement
The unethical practice of collusion in the awarding of public contracts stands as a glaring example of corporate influence gone awry, leading to a gross misallocation of taxpayer funds. This malpractice is often characterized by non-competitive bidding processes, tailored contract specifications to unfairly benefit specific corporations, and inflated charges for products and services rendered to the government.

Such actions not only squander public resources but also erode the integrity and fairness of the procurement process, leaving smaller entities at a significant disadvantage. This creates a cycle where only a few large corporations are consistently awarded government contracts, thereby reinforcing their market dominance and entrenching their influence within the public sector. The repercussions of these practices extend beyond financial waste, as they compromise the principles of fairness and competition that are fundamental to a healthy market economy.

By sidelining merit-based considerations and transparency, the collusion between corporations and government officials distorts the very framework meant to ensure that public contracts are awarded in the best interest of the populace. This undermines public trust in government operations and perpetuates a system where the allocation of public funds is not guided by the pursuit of quality and efficiency but by the interests of a privileged few.

Impact Of Large Corporations On State Misconduct

The Revolving Door Phenomenon and Its Implications
The revolving door phenomenon represents a complex challenge in the interface between corporate interests and public governance. This cycle occurs when individuals frequently transition between significant roles in the private sector and positions within the government, creating a seamless pathway for the exchange of influence and priorities. The implications of this phenomenon are multifaceted, introducing a potential for conflict of interest that undermines the integrity of public decision-making.

Former government officials, equipped with insider knowledge and a network of contacts, may exploit these assets to benefit corporate agendas when they enter the private sector. Their understanding of regulatory processes and access to key policymakers provide a strategic advantage to corporations looking to navigate laws and regulations in their favor.

Similarly, when individuals from the corporate world assume public office, they may carry with them a mindset and loyalty skewed towards business interests. This predisposition can color their approach to policymaking, regulation, and enforcement, potentially prioritizing economic gains over public welfare and environmental sustainability. The revolving door blurs the boundaries between serving the public interest and advancing corporate profitability, raising questions about the impartiality of policies and regulations.

The movement of personnel between these spheres can foster an environment where the formulation and implementation of public policy are unduly influenced by the aspirations of the business sector, sidelining broader societal needs and concerns. This entanglement complicates efforts to ensure that public governance remains focused on equitable and sustainable development for all citizens, free from disproportionate corporate sway.

Hidden Cost of Corporate-Funded Research and Think Tanks
The funding of research institutions and think tanks by corporations introduces a subtle yet potent form of influence on public policy and societal perceptions. This financial support, while ostensibly for the advancement of knowledge, often comes with strings attached, leading to outcomes that can skew research findings in favor of the benefactors’ interests.

The implications of this dynamic are profound, as it covertly shifts the landscape of public discourse and policy-making. Research and reports emanating from such institutions may present a veneer of objectivity, yet underneath, they could be framing issues in ways that deflect criticism from corporate practices or amplify the positives of corporate-led initiatives.

This situation raises significant concerns about the integrity of scholarly work and the independence of think tanks, entities that society relies on for impartial insights into complex issues. When the production of knowledge is tethered to corporate interests, the public and policymakers might not be receiving a full and fair account of matters affecting societal well-being. Instead, they are presented with a narrative that subtly molds public opinion and policy landscapes to align with corporate agendas.

The hidden cost here is not just in the potentially biased information that shapes laws and public policies but also in the erosion of trust in academic and research institutions. As these bodies play a crucial role in informing both public debate and policy decisions, their compromise threatens the foundation of informed democratic discourse and governance, undermining the pursuit of policies that genuinely serve the public interest and safeguard the common good.

Unraveling Political Motives: Legal Shields for Personal Business

Posted on 01/10/100103/19/2024 by Ninjemon

In the world of politics, there’s often more than what meets the eye. One intriguing aspect of this field involves politicians creating laws to protect their personal finances and business interests.

Understanding Politicians’ Financial Interests
Just like any other individuals, politicians have their own financial interests, which can take the form of investment portfolios, ownership in real estate properties, or stakes in businesses or corporations. There’s nothing inherently wrong or unethical about these personal financial endeavors. However, issues arise when these interests intersect with their public roles and responsibilities.

Conflicts of interest become evident when politicians leverage their official position to sway legislation, directly or indirectly favoring their personal businesses or financial concerns. Such situations are not just ethically questionable, but also threaten the integrity of political systems, as public officials are expected to act in the best interest of the citizenry, not their personal portfolios. The complex dynamic between politicians’ private financial interests and their public duties becomes a crucial issue when examining the efficacy and fairness of our governance systems.

Political Power and Legislation: A Two-Way Street
The realm of legislation isn’t a one-way street. Although politicians wield the authority to enact laws, the power dynamics don’t end there. Legislation, in turn, can significantly affect the fortunes of those same politicians. A noteworthy example of this reciprocal relationship is seen when certain politicians manipulate these legislative powers to advance their own business interests. Instead of acting purely in the public’s interest, these officials may craft laws or push for policies that primarily serve their financial agendas, be it directly or subtly.

Such misuse of power can undermine fundamental principles of liberty and erode public faith in government institutions. This manipulation can result in laws and regulations that appear, on the surface, to be fair and just, but in reality, they may be stacked in favor of those with political influence and their associated businesses. The interplay between legislation and political power thus needs to be critically examined to ensure it aligns with democratic principles and doesn’t serve as a tool for personal enrichment.

Unpacking Laws Benefiting Politicians’ Businesses
To truly grasp the scope of this phenomenon, we must take a closer look at the actual laws that are passed with politicians’ business interests in mind. Tax legislation, for example, is frequently laced with complex loopholes that individuals with high net-worth, politicians included, can maneuver to lessen their tax burdens. The cunning manipulation doesn’t stop there, laws concerning land use and environmental protection have been known to be warped in a manner that benefits politicians who own substantial real estate properties.

Even decisions on public spending are not immune to this, as allocation of funds can “sometimes” disproportionately favor sectors where politicians have substantial investments. Thus, legislation that on the surface may appear in the best interest of the public may, in fact, be a calculated move to enhance the financial position of the politicians involved.

Lack of Accountability in Legislative Decision-Making
One of the primary reasons politicians are able to create laws favoring their business interests is the general absence of accountability in legislative decision-making. The veiled nature of politicians’ financial involvements often renders it challenging to identify potential conflicts of interest. There are instances where officials can cleverly manipulate the legislative process, promoting laws under the façade of public welfare, all the while masking the real beneficiaries, themselves or their private businesses.

The legislative process’s intricacies further complicate matters, providing ample room for shrouded actions that are not readily visible to the general public. This lack of transparency hampers efforts to establish whether the intent behind a piece of legislation is genuinely public-spirited or primarily self-serving. Therefore, increasing accountability in legislative decision-making is a crucial step towards limiting the potential for misuse of power and ensuring that the laws enacted truly serve the best interest of the public.

Political Motives Legal Shields For Personal Business

Consequences of Unchecked Financial Ties
The enduring bonds between politicians and their personal businesses, left unchecked, can produce far-reaching effects. The most immediate impact is the erosion of public trust in our political institutions. When officials prioritize personal profit over public good, faith in government processes diminishes. This skewed prioritization further fosters a lopsided economic landscape. With those in positions of power manipulating legislation for personal financial gain, the principle of fair competition is compromised.

This disbalance has the potential to stifle innovation and economic growth in the long run. Additionally, when lawmakers cater to their business interests, they divert political attention, as well as resources, away from critical societal problems that require immediate redressal. For example, health, education, and environmental issues might be ignored, while laws favoring certain business sectors like war, prisons, and pharmaceuticals, get fast-tracked. Hence, unchecked financial ties can lead to the politicization of vital aspects of society, potentially causing disproportionate allocation of resources, and ultimately hindering overall societal progress.

Advocacy for Transparency and Accountability
The quest to curb the misuse of political power for personal financial gains necessitates a strong call for enhanced transparency and accountability. An initial, pivotal step towards achieving this can be the obligatory public disclosure of politicians’ financial interests. Such a policy would lay bare any potential conflicts of interest, revealing whether legislation might be unduly influenced by personal business interests.

The role of ordinary citizens cannot be overstated. The electorate needs to maintain a watchful eye over the actions of those in power, steadfastly demanding transparency, honesty, and integrity. They should also advocate for legislative changes that compel politicians to divulge their business interests, making conflicts of interest easier to spot. By championing for such reforms, we can cast a revealing light on the murky intersection of politics and personal business, and foster a climate of true public service, ultimately upholding the ethos of fair governance.

The Link Between Political Hero Worship and Low Intelligence

Posted on 01/10/100103/19/2024 by Ninjemon

In today’s political landscape, it is not uncommon to see individuals putting their leaders on a pedestal and blindly following their every word and action. This phenomenon, known as political hero worship, may seem harmless at first glance, but upon closer examination, it reveals a troubling truth. Research suggests that those who engage in this type of behavior tend to have lower levels of intelligence.

Defining Political Hero Worship
Political hero worship is characterized by an intense admiration for a specific political figure, often viewing them as flawless and superior beings. This extreme reverence can take several forms, such as undying support for all actions and decisions taken by the politician, disregarding any criticisms directed towards them, or developing an unwavering belief that the chosen leader is the only one capable of rectifying the country’s predicaments.

This kind of reverence often ignores the reality that politicians, like every human being, are fallible and can make mistakes. Blind loyalty can cloud judgment, obstructing objective assessment of the politician’s actions and policies. In the worst cases, this uncritical adoration can lead to the dismissal of any opposing views or constructive criticism, bolstering the mistaken belief in the politician’s infallibility.

Link Between Politician Worship and Low Intelligence
Drawing a direct correlation between an individual’s intelligence quotient and their propensity to idolize political figures may seem unkind. Nevertheless, a body of research proposes an association between lower cognitive capabilities and extreme political views, including blind devotion to a specific politician. These individuals often see the world in rigid, dichotomous terms, casting their favored political figure as the embodiment of all that is right and virtuous.

Critically evaluating political information and adopting a nuanced view of world events are skills less likely to be demonstrated by these individuals. In essence, their realm is divided into absolutes, with their preferred politician representing the epitome of righteousness. Their inability to view their political hero with a critical eye hampers their understanding of the complexities of governance and decision-making processes, perpetuating their unwavering support.

Idolizing Politicians Is Counterproductive
The practice of elevating political figures to a near-deity status holds numerous disadvantages, making it counterproductive. Firstly, this approach breeds unrealistic expectations. It’s important to remember that politicians, regardless of their competence or charisma, cannot single-handedly resolve every issue faced by a nation. By assuming they can, we set ourselves up for disappointment and the politicians up for inevitable failure.

Secondly, the blinding effect of this hero-worship can hinder supporters from acknowledging and accepting the mistakes and shortcomings of their favored politicians. This creates a protective shield around the political figure, absolving them of any accountability, which can be highly detrimental to societies where leaders should be answerable for their actions.

Lastly, such fervent idolization can contribute to a further divide between supporters of different political figures. This intense divide can fuel animosity, hampering the spirit of collaboration and compromise. Such conditions are not conducive to fostering an environment where healthy and constructive political discourse can take place. It can result in a gridlock where different factions refuse to find common ground, leading to stagnation in policy-making and hindering the progress of the society as a whole.

Political Paradigm Worship and the Disregard for Facts
When individuals succumb to political hero worship, an alarming outcome is often the indifference or outright dismissal of factual information. This blind loyalty can lead to a tendency to reject or ignore evidence that conflicts with their idyllic perception of their chosen political figure. This does not only perpetuate falsehoods but can also create an electorate that is inadequately informed and easily swayed by misinformation.

Devotees can become more engrossed in maintaining their idealized image of a politician, neglecting the importance of basing their understanding and decisions on factual information. This sort of environment paves the way for political manipulation, as it’s easier to sway those who are willing to overlook the facts. Therefore, the act of worshiping politicians can threaten the very foundation of informed decision-making in society, highlighting the need for critical thinking and fact-checking in the realm of politics.

Link Between Political Hero Worship And Low Intelligence

Extreme Dangers of Political Hero Worship
The act of revering political figures to the point of infallibility can foster a breeding ground for authoritarianism. Such extreme adulation hands an excessive amount of authority and sway to an individual, potentially overshadowing democratic principles. Fundamental tenets like checks and balances, the right of free speech, and the right to express dissent are at risk of being compromised. An even more alarming consequence is the potential for citizen disengagement.

Believing in a leader’s ultimate perfection could make the public apathetic, under the impression that their idol will seamlessly handle every situation. Such a mindset can erode the essence of liberty, which thrives on the active participation of its empowered people. The perceived perfection of a political figure may also inhibit public scrutiny and critique, crucial aspects of holding public officials accountable.

When taken to extremes, political hero worship can even lead to a cult of personality, where the leader’s image is promoted as an all-knowing and supreme authority. This can further consolidate power in the hands of one individual, creating an imbalance in the political structure. Overall, the dangers of unchecked political hero worship can have severe ramifications for institutions and public engagement in the political process.

The Importance of Critical Thinking in Politics
In lieu of mindlessly rallying behind a political leader, it is vital that humans implement critical analysis in their political evaluations. This requires a multifaceted approach, involving a thorough investigation of a politician’s policy stances, a comprehensive understanding of their past performance, and an openness to consider differing perspectives. This kind of critical appraisal not only fosters an informed electorate, but also ensures politicians are held responsible for their actions, ultimately leading to a more vibrant and robust democracy.

By critically examining the actions of political figures, citizens can prevent the development of damaging hero worship and instead promote a political climate that encourages accountability, honesty, and transparency. Maintaining this balanced and critical view of politics is essential for the health and longevity of a free society. It encourages active participation in the political process and ensures our leaders serve the best interest of the people, not just their personal agenda.

This balanced approach ensures that praise is given when due, but criticism is also leveled when necessary, creating an environment where politicians are kept in check and are continually reminded of their duty to serve the public effectively. Thus, the exercise of critical thinking in politics is not merely beneficial, it is a cornerstone for maintaining a functional community.
