OMG! It’s Anarchy!

College of Political Knowledge

The events of 06 January has brought about a liberal use of the term ‘anarchy’…..a misuse of the term.

Take a closer look at “Anarchy”……

This is another of those words that is used liberally by the media and no one knows what the Hell they are talking about….a word like socialism which as you know is used as some sort of insult for anyone that has Left leanings ideas.

The insult shows a large portion of ignorance…..they use the word wrongly….just like socialism.

But what is the theory behind ‘anarchism’…..

Anarchism has been defined many ways by many different sources. The word “anarchism” is taken from the word “anarchy” which is drawn from dual sources in the Greek language. It is made up of the Greek words αν (meaning: absence of [and pronounced “an”] and αρχη (meaning: authority or government [and pronounced “arkhe”]). Today, dictionary definitions still define anarchism as the absence of government. These modern dictionary definitions of anarchism are based on the writings and actions of anarchists of history and present. Anarchists understand, as do historians of anarchism and good dictionaries and encyclopedias, that the word anarchism represents a positive theory. Exterior sources, however, such as the media, will frequently misuse the word anarchism and, thus, breed misunderstanding.

Anarchism is a political theory, which is skeptical of the justification of authority and power, especially political power. Anarchism is usually grounded in moral claims about the importance of individual liberty. Anarchists also offer a positive theory of human flourishing, based upon an ideal of non-coercive consensus building. Anarchism has inspired practical efforts at establishing utopian communities, radical and revolutionary political agendas, and various forms of direct action. This entry primarily describes “philosophical anarchism”: it focuses on anarchism as a theoretical idea and not as a form of political activism. While philosophical anarchism describes a skeptical theory of political legitimation, anarchism is also a concept that has been employed in philosophical and literary theory to describe a sort of anti-foundationalism. Philosophical anarchism can mean either a theory of political life that is skeptical of attempts to justify state authority or a philosophical theory that is skeptical of the attempt to assert firm foundations for knowledge.

Nothing about the theory leads to the conclusion that it is all about violence and chaos.

The negative connotations are a construct of the media and the powers in control that are afraid of losing their stranglehold on power.

Anarchism is basically the ‘power of the people’.

Anytime that I hear the term anarchy or anarchist used to describe chaos and violence I know then that the person using the term is an ignorant dullard.

The use of the term negatively is nothing more than an insult and the buffoon’s attempt to lessen anything that challenges their authority.  It is used to incite fear and loathing.

I believe in the ‘power of the people’ concept but that cannot be achieved with the boot of power on their throats.

I was a member of the IWW and according to popular BS that makes me an anarchist….

So Be It!

I remain convinced that the power of the people is the only salvation this planet has.

Be Smart!

Let The Truth Be Known

Conversations With My Granddaughter

For a couple of decades now there has been a debate on who actually controls the truth….and it has gotten worse since the candidacy of Donald trump.

I am always getting visitors that do not seem to know what to believe…..which is a lie for they will believe a lie if it helps prop up their belief in the present……then when they are confronted with something that does not agree with their outlook they question whether it is true or not.

You can’t out-manipulate seasoned manipulators. The main error most people make when trying to deal with a sociopath is to try and manipulate them back. Don’t even try. They have years of experience on you because they literally have done nothing else. While you were laughing and crying and worrying and connecting and relating to people, they were working out how to play humans like Garry Kasparov worked out how to play chess. And when you have literal teams of sociopaths collaborating together to amass power, you my dear child, do not have a chance. Don’t play their game. You will lose.

The only way to win this is to set your compass resolutely to “true.” Always be honest with yourself. Find all the different ways that you are manipulating others and see them and acknowledge them. Find your tribal allegiances and your desire to be right, and tip your hat to their existence. The more self-aware we are, the less levers we have to be manipulated by. If you are blindly partisan or loyal to a particular faction, that makes you gullible to propaganda because your wishful thinking and your desire to be right come into play. Get honest with yourself about who you are and what you want, and you will start to become an playable piece on the board.

If we can’t beat these bastards with truth, we don’t deserve to win.

Your grandfather loves you…..and I know you will do what is right.

That Is One Way To Get A Scoop

WLOX-TV news reporter Toni Miles has lost her job after being arrested on a felony cocaine charge.

Her attorney, Charles P. Wilson Jr., said her dismissal today “was based on mere allegations. Just because somebody has been accused of something, it doesn’t mean that they have broken the law.”

WLOX Station Manager Dave Vincent has not returned phone calls for comment.

Miles, a member of the TV station’s news team since 2001, was arrested early this morning at the home of Gulfport businessman Ronnie Wayne Blacklidge Jr. They and two others were arrested at his Bayou View home on Quincy Avenue. The Gulfport Police Department said they entered the home with a search warrant at 3:12 a.m.

Miles was a field reporter for WLOX during the week and a weekend co-anchor.

Blacklidge is a local developer and helps run a family-owned asphalt company, Blacklidge Emulsions. He lives in a neighborhood west of Courthouse Road.

Miles, 32, of Biloxi, and Blacklidge, 36, have both been released from the Harrison County jail. Both are charged with possession of cocaine. They were booked in at the Harrison County jail at 10:15 a.m. Both posted bail around 1 p.m.

MS: Misinformation Sticks

Supporters of former Democratic Gov. Ronnie Musgrove and interim Republican Sen. Roger Wicker have unleashed a barrage of negative commercials in the past several months, hoping to gain an advantage in the neck-and-neck U.S. Senate race.

Often, political attack ads don’t tell the whole story, rather just a portion of it, using certain facts that benefit one candidate and make the other look bad. Usually, the ads tackle a complicated topic that’s not as simple as presented and in many cases, the other campaign counters the ad using their own facts that may be equally incomplete.

Voters, who often don’t have the time or resources to get the whole story, are left to decide which candidate they trust more.

Idiot Of The Week

It is so hard to pick an idiot of the week…..cops beating people on tape….teens beating other teens to put on youtube…..etc…etc.

But I finally found my idiot of the week:

An American soldier, serving in Iraq, used the Koran for target practice and was seen by some locals.

How stupid must you be to do something this moronic?  A general had to apologize and the soldier had to write a letter to the locals.  If not, then the Sunni tribesmen would have pulled out of the cooperation deal with the military and then your sacred “surge” would be a dried cow pie on the road of war.

This lucky person will now be entered into the Idiot of the Year award—

2008 Idiot Of The Week

We have a winner this week!  Robert Fuller of Texas.  He stole a check from his girl friend’s mother and forged her signature……the amount on the check was $360 billion.  Some wide eyed teller caught the amount and became suspicious…thinking…what was her first sign that something was wrong?

I know you want to know just what was this guy smoking…….pause for effect…….well he was also charged with possession of marijuana….go figure!2008

Idiot Of The Week

I will attempt to post something on this every week, with the hopes that there will be enough posts that we can award “Idiot Of The Year”. Please if anyone has a nominee for this award leave me a comment and I will post it.

The first one is a good one.

Different charges could be coming against a former state senator who allegedly killed young geese last week in a gas barbecue grill at his home on the Ross Barnett Reservoir.

Mike Gunn, who represented Rankin County in the state Legislature through most of the 1990s, could face federal prosecution on claims that he killed seven goslings in his backyard last Friday.

Witnesses told authorities that Gunn scooped up the geese and put them in the grill. He later took them out and threw them in a trash bin.

Makes me proud of Mississippi that we have such great people that have served in the governmevt of the state.
