The Atomisation of Capitalism Must be Swept Aside for the Unity of Socialism
Capitalism is wrecking the World. Whether it is in the form of the military destruction of far-off (and not-so-far-off) lands, or the undermining of Workers' Rights and theft of pay (through hidden taxes and higher cost of living), Capitalism is a destructive force. The decline of a balanced human-centred world hasn't happened over night, but it certainly has accelerated in recent years. Apologists for the modern malaise will argue that those of us who object to the replacement of the mixed economy with pure vicious capitalist misery, are 'dinosaurs' who yearn for a golden age which never existed. They are wrong. We object, not out of some misplaced romanticism, but out of an understanding of the bigger picture. We understand that the death of our way of life is not a natural and inevitable event, but is rather a carefully calculated assault on us which aims to remove all obstacles to the complete globalised slave state which the ruling class have been constructing for hundreds of years and which they foolishly believe they are near to realising.
The assault on our society and our ability to defend ourselves is the more pernicious because it comes from within. To be more accurate, the assault is organised by the self-serving bourgeois class who have manipulated an entire sub-section of society so that it carries out the work which they are numerically unable to do. Social engineering has wrought more damage than any foreign invasion or war ever has. Our demise has been stage managed by those who consider themselves to be in authority, but are mere lap-dogs of the real Ruling Class.
How have the mis-rulers forced their agenda upon us? There are many methods they have used, but most notable have been the campaigns to control people economically, spiritually, and mentally, all of which are inter-weaved.
Economically, the Establishment have taxed the population to the point where those who work are financially crippled. The income tax system punishes those who work more many hours in the futile attempt to gain enough money to be comfortable. By taking more and more money from the workers, the Establishment ensures that the vast majority of them are denied financial independence. The Establishment, of course, create 'money' and thereby are separate from the rest of us who must work until we die, just to survive. Certainly some people are able to retire at a relatively young age, but they must still sacrifice most of their lives in order to achieve a semblance of financial security - and this is only for themselves; the following generation is pulled back into the work-trap and must live in economic serfdom.
At the lower end of the economic spectrum are the shiftless underclass. These come in different forms. There are the involuntarily unemployed, and those who choose to live at the expense of the workers. The very term unemployed means unused - and points to the thinking of the Establishment. Employment has become synonymous with manipulation. In the past, people worked in order to provide for their own. They worked the land on small-holdings and bartered with artisans for luxuries. This noble and honourable form of living is mocked as the lifestyle of the peasantry. The Peasants have been replaced by wage-slaves and the Lumpenproletariat - the latter of whom are a growing burden on the hard-taxed former.
The Lumpenproletariat are a thorn in the side of the majority. This is by design. By reducing the character of the Working Class to a mockery of its true self, the need to live in compassion and cooperation has been replaced by a completely unhealthy and destructive ethos of greed and selfishness. The Lumpens exist because they have been deliberately nurtured in order to destroy those who hold true to our real values and sense of worth.
The process of smashing the self-respect and mutual support which has been the strength of all humanity, has been a long one. The healthy system of the Guilds was shattered with the coming of industrialisation and 'the Protestant Work Ethic', which made a virtue out of wage-slavery. With the ascension of Capitalism to a position where those who suffered under it were so manipulated as to see it as a positive thing, the next stage was to implode the economy and remove the comfort afforded by the economic system which - imperfect as it was - was still responsible for the addressing the ills afflicting the people.
Through manufactured war and the globalist agenda of relocating industry and other forms of work to far-flung parts of the world, the self-sufficiency of every nation was smashed. Accompanying this was the massive movement of people across the globe, removing a sense of belonging, and making people interchangeable units in the capitalist machine. This reduced people from members of a distinctive nation, with a strong sense of culture, spirituality, family, and kinship, into atomised consuming individuals. The final stage was to destroy any sense of pride in personal achievement, and replace the dignity of labour with a pride in idleness. This was achieved via the Welfare State which was officially created to protect the masses from hardship, but, as with all political phenomena, in true double-speak, served to drag people into a dependent state of subsistence living, with a harsh taxation system making it economically senseless to attempt to live by working, rather than on benefits.
With an entire strata of society being born into the Welfare system, it then became necessary to destroy any respect for civilised behaviour and decency. To this end, the legal system has been turned into a mockery of justice. Punishment for crime was gradually reduced in severity, under the lie of 'human rights', to the point where all deterrents were removed. Pop music, films, and the news media were manipulated to glorify violence and crimes against people. In contrast, crimes against the Establishment are ceaselessly pushed in the popular media as abhorrent and unacceptable. To this end, anything which can be twisted into being misrepresented as an attack on Zionism has become a focus of evil, with the recent ludicrous case of Mark Meechan being arrested for making a video of his girlfriend's dog responding to words which can only be considered offensive when taking out of the context of a comedy video.
The legal system attacks those who attack or mock the Ruling Class, but it lets those who attack the People go unpunished. Bleeding hearty liberals employed as Probation workers, Prison Governors etc have made prisons so lax that they no longer are a deterrent. The prisons are now so overcrowded that Courts are ordered by the State to only remand people in exceptional circumstances. Instead, criminals are tagged electronically and given curfews - thus allowing them to continue their criminal activities hindered only by having to be at home for set periods (usually night-time). They may also have to give urine samples for drug analysis once a week, and undertake a couple of hours unpaid work per week. It really does prove how lax the Prison system is that criminals will offend over and over whilst on a non-custodial Court Order in order to be incarcerated for a couple of weeks to quash the Probation requirements! They WANT to go to prison! But why wouldn't they? In prison they have access to more heroin, crack etc than they could dream of outside, they do not have to do any work at all, and must be provided with leisure and educational facilities. For many people, Prison accommodation is preferable to that which they have in the real world, and it is a great place to network with other criminals.
This year, London has seen more people murdered than New York. A city where guns and knives are illegal, is awash with both. Due to the laxist liberal 'justice' system, people are being murdered every week, and the media comments in passing, because this is a symptom of the atomisation of the nation, and this lack of respect for humanity is the new norm.
The Lumpen class which has emerged as a visible strata of society did not appear over night. However, since the 1960s when the Trotskyite Frankfurt School Revolution really began to bite, the rise of the dregs of humanity to prominence has proceeded at an alarming rate. The Frankfurt School has attempted to destroy nations by destroying people. It has succeeded in creating generations of liberals, but it has largely failed in the Working Class, and it is us who will overthrow the bourgeois despots with a Revolution of Sanity.
Those who have become trapped in the Welfare System by no fault of their own must be helped by being encouraged to work outside the system - indeed we must all find ways to trade with one another and work without exchanging the fiat money which feeds the Capitalist machine. Capitalism has ruined our lands; it has ruined every land. The fight against Globalism has to be fought - ironically - globally, by reaching out to Socialists Worldwide. We don't need or want a Trotskyite Internationalism, but a real Socialist Inter-Nationalism, which will put family, security, self-reliance, and respect at the heart of everything. The days of liberal dominance are coming to their end, and we must do all we can to speed their demise. A Socialist Future awaits us.
