The UK and trying to locate its position in the 9 circles of communist hell (respect to Dante)

Yesterday we only had time for one post. But after all, the death of a representative republic, commonly referred to as a democracy, and in a sense where that idea of democracy began for the current era (if one doesn’t count pre-Caesar Rome) deserves focus for at least a day.

It’s clearly much worse than we thought though, innit?

??MAN JAILED IN UK FOR COMMENTING ON FACEBOOK POST ABOUT RIOTS

31-year-old Billy Thompson was sent to prison for 12 weeks after he replied “Filthy ba**ards” on a post about the Police issuing a dispersal order to try and prevent protests from becoming violent.

31-year-old Billy Thompson was sent to prison for 12 weeks after he replied “Filthy ba**ards” on a post about the Police issuing a dispersal order to try and prevent protests from becoming violent.

It also included emojis of an ethnic minority person and a gun.

His lawyer said Billy had made the comment as part of an online Facebook conversation with a family member.

The judge found him guilty of encouraging violence and imposed the sentence to “discourage the kind of violent behavior that such messages encouraged.”

Judge Temperley:

“It may be right that the starting point [sentence] is a community order for this offense, but I am afraid this has to be viewed within the context of the current civil unrest up and down the country.”

This guy remains a city councillor though, and no word of an imminent arrest:

So called ‘anti fascist protester’ says “we need to cut all their throats and get rid of them” then the crowd cheer and clap.

Why won’t the media call them out?

Why won’t the government issue a warning?

Why won’t the police arrest them? pic.twitter.com/SBZNp2kcUP

I guess the jailing and trials of the Freedom Convoy truckers in Canada were just the opening act. England has moved on to actual prison for expressing support for people who believe in rule of law and the rights they enjoy in a republic style of government. Challenging state narratives, which as those who stop by here now and again should know are dialectical, is the real and perhaps nearly the only crime that gets police attention.

Dialectics like “multiculturalism” with its sub-dialectic of moral relativism allows them to ignore the law and apply force based on any criteria they care to make up at the moment, but will always support increased state use of power and the reduction of individual rights. Notice that yet?

Let’s reexamine a speech that was given at a memorial service for Dutch politician, Pim Fortyn in 2006.  The speech can be downloaded here. Douglass Murray delivered this talk in The Hague to the Pim Fortuyn Memorial Conference in the Netherlands in February 2006. And Pim Fortyn was a gay, left leaning and hedonistic typically leftist Dutch politician of his day. But one of the few who woke up to at least enough basic reality that he recognized that a massive influx of Muslims would make the Netherlands a hostile place for classical values, and doubly so for gay hedonists. Turned out he was right. Fortyn was murdered in 2002 by a leftist. Volkert Van der Graaf.

ChatGPT offers this:

Interesting description of his killer. Fortuyn was not known for his anti-Environmental stances or his cruelty to animals. He was known because he was the only Dutch politician way back then, ready to take a stand against Islam and Islamic mass immigration and its effects on Western civilization and Dutch liberal values. So ChatGPT, like the media and state narrative machinery still beards the communist destruction of the West with nicey nicey terms like “Feminism” and “environmentalism” while the left is destroying both women and the environment through mass immigration and destruction of wild lands and farmlands to accommodate our replacements.

The entire speech is very worth reading. Please click the link above to download it, read it, and spread it to people while reminding them it was given in 2006. But a few choice bits below:

[…] The flip-side of this is that defeat in the war on terror – the war on Islamic extremism – will not happen in a familiar manner either. Defeat will not look as defeat would have looked last time. It will rather, I suggest, consist of a gradual accretion of hurts on our society, a wearying accumulation of often minor humiliations: death by a thousand cuts. Rather than waking up one day and finding troops rolling into our cities, we will simply become aware, with a growing sense of numbness, that what we had has slipped away, that what we relied on for support and succour has eroded and washed beyond our reach. If we end in darkness this time, it will be because we shuffled, rather than fell, into it.

In this situation, Churchill’s comment to Chamberlain throws us some light. For once again, albeit in very different circumstances, the West faces a threat to its way of life. Once again it is a threat which the peoples of Europe, in their estimable desire for peace, would rather was not there. And because of that wish, vast swathes of Europe have decided it is not there. Busily they preoccupy themselves with changing the subject and ignoring the elephant in the living room.

In their efforts to avoid war, Europeans are once again choosing dishonour. They refuse to cut back their welfare budgets or significantly increase their defence spending, and they still refuse to enforce the measures required to cease or reverse the disastrous effects of mass immigration. Indeed, there is no indication that Europeans are going to alter their path today any faster than they did in the 1930s. As in the 1930s, Europe is tired of war. So when war has been launched upon it, Europe pretends it is not war, and fails to fight back. Indeed it is worse than that. A Transatlantic Trends survey carried out in 2003 revealed that fewer than half of Europeans believe that any war at all – even one in the national interest – can be considered just. Yet in their effort to avoid confrontation now, Europeans are making a worse confrontation down the line more likely: in their effort to pretend-away the risk, the risk is swelling. The word for dishonour this time is Dhimmitude.

Who would have thought that after four bombers blew up buses and trains across London last July, the British government would appoint a bunch of Islamists to explain why it happened and then sit and take it as the afore-mentioned “experts” tell them that the fact that Britain was attacked was Britain’s fault – oh, and the fault of the Jews of course. If Churchill had sat down in 1940 and asked “Why do they hate us”, or appointed a panel of Nazi-apologists to tell him why Britain deserved to be attacked by Nazis, then I can be pretty sure I wouldn’t be here today. But nevermind the spirit of Churchill, where is even a hint of self-worth, pride – or even survival instinct? Two and a half millennia ago, Pericles reminded the people of Athens of

all the advantages that are to be gained by warding off the foe.

Today many of the free descendants of those Athenians seem only to want to be reminded of the advantages gained from closing their eyes, keeping their heads down, and making sure they don’t upset the Muslims.

So what is going wrong? Why is it that time and again the liberal West is crumpling before the violence, intimidation and thuggery of Islam? Why are we so at risk from something which should by rights be a simple matter to deal with?

The answer is that we inhabit a continent with twin problems. The first problem arises from a reinvigorated and re-emergent Islamic fundamentalism. Militarily, this is relatively easy to deal with, and in foreign lands there is a solution to the problem. But the reason why it is causing such difficulties at home is because this resurgence comes at a time when our societies in Western Europe are too weak-willed, tired and degenerate to act decisively. In this weak state, batting off even a minor infection can prove impossible. There is a metaphor here which the Canadian-born writer Mark Steyn cited recently, when he wrote:

Radical Islam is an opportunist infection, like AIDS: it’s not the HIV that kills you, it’s the pneumonia you get when your body’s too weak to fight it off.

That last bit bears repeating. Islam is like the flu. We really were in no danger from it but the left use of dialectics such as multiculturalism and moral relativism, took down our basic immune response to Islam’s truly repugnant and repellant values. Value which we never would have allowed a toe hold in the West without the left’s very calculated and deliberate destruction of those defences. Genocidal antisemitism which is now a daily occurrence on Western streets is one example that would have been unthinkable just a few years ago. The proof of our myopia to these methods is how many Jews vote left despite genocidal antisemitism being a central dogma of Islam, and also of socialism although different in reasoning.(although far fewer Jews vote left since Oct 7 2023; More’s the pity that voting doesn’t really have much impact at this point.) And Feminism has also done a stellar job at destroying women’s rights.

Let’s look at Iraq. That’s a war we won. Right?

Legal marriage age reduced to 9 (nine)!

The best comment, which one may assume was facetious, was that this is repellant because the age should be 6, which is the age Mohammad “married” Aisha and set the standard for the faith and so anything else is un-Islamic.

And anyone notice the ‘feminist group’ Code Pink is no where in sight protesting this, let alone in Iraq?

Why would Code Pink care about events in Iraq, you may ask. Well they did. A lot.

Code Pink even went to Iraq during the war, not to object to human or women’s rights issues, but to humiliate George Bush and try and win the war for the Iraqi dictator. As you can see by the links above, Code Pink was always a communist organization and is more openly so today.

As to child marriage, given that the UK more than allowed the massive enforced sexual slavery of its own young girls, pre-teens and early teenage women by Muslim Pakistanis for the most part, I would think they would consider child “marriage” to be a step up.

What is the British government’s actual response to all of this? Well, like true Marxists, it is to jail people who report on the truth for crimes against the narratives. This could be put a few ways. Challenging the state narratives with truth. Providing prima facia evidence that things are happening about which the public should react. Exposing a state narrative lie most of all. But lile environmental groups or feminist groups, the crimes would be bearded with dialectical language that would make one hesitate just long enough that no one will really do anything about the utter and total devastation of our most sacred and central freedoms.

Creating racial tensions or “racism”, (itself a dialectic even though people are so used to that notion as a crime they would not be ready to hear that yet) or my favorite one, “Mischief”. Right out of the Islamic playbook. Creating Mischief upon the land is a catch-all crime in Islam to deal with unspecified challenges to the supremacy of Islam.

ChatGPT has a lot to say about the term but its fun to ask as it has to turn itself into a pretzel to obey its prime directive to always make non-white and non-Western cultures and people look good no matter what they do, teach or believe. Here is the last paragraph of 2 pages it generated when I asked it to: “Explain the Islamic crime of creating mischief upon the land”

Modern Context

In contemporary discussions, the interpretation and application of laws against “mischief upon the land” can be controversial, especially when it comes to issues of human rights and international law. Some interpretations that apply harsh physical punishments have been critiqued both within and outside Muslim communities.

This term encapsulates the Islamic legal philosophy that certain crimes are so disruptive to public order and moral conduct that they warrant severe penalties. However, the implementation of these principles can vary widely and is often a subject of intense debate among scholars and policymakers.

Funny stuff.

If memory serves though, in Canada and the UK and likely elsewhere in newly minted Islamic-communist polities, “mischief” appears to appear more and more commonly against people that challenge state narratives. It wasn’t always a catch-all but it’s becoming one now. I believe it is one of the nebulous charges against Freedom Convoy trucker, Pat King. Same with Chris Barber and Tamara Lich. From CBC:

They are on trial for charges of committing mischief, obstructing police, counselling others to commit mischief and intimidation for their role in the protest.

Hopefully a watchful legal expert can weigh in on that and correct me if needs be.

In the title of this post, we are riffing off of the title of Dante Alligheri’s most famous work, The Inferno, that being one part of his Divine Trilogy.

In it, Dante imagined that there are nine concentric circles to hell, each one being more severe than the previous one in terms of torture, and mercifully, those souls committed there get placed in one based on an actual standard of degree of sinfulness of their lives, meaning there is at least some reasonableness to how it all winds up. Which makes Hell according to Dante, a fairer place than any communist polity.

In order to establish trajectory of the UK’s descent into communist hell, we need another point in time than the current one. So let’s pick these two interviews with Tim Burton, a UK politician who was sentenced to 12 weeks in prison back in 2016 for writing a sarcastic and classically British email to a corrupt Islamic politician, and one who had been bilking the public purse for years under false pretences.

Before sentencing:

After:

If nothing is done to stop it, then it’s pretty easy to see what Bolgia the UK and other Western nations will be in by 2026 or.

CBDCs almost certainly. And there will be such uncertainty about what anyone is allowed to say, that no one will say much of anything of any importance at all. We are nearly there now. And we police each other. At the moment, the state doesn’t even have to do much. We don’t advertise or promote our counter-revolutionary values in public for fear of repercussions from any sector in our lives. Jobs, social, how will the waitress treat us? The chef? Uber Eats?

In case anyone hasn’t seen it, here is an excellent explainer video on CBDC as a means of control

It is good to know where you are if you want to get a sense of where you are going.

And as Orwell wrote so brilliantly in his most influential book, 1984:

“He who controls the past, controls the future. He who controls the present, controls the past.”

Watch any ten minutes of broadcast media and most legacy print media and ask yourselves if the present is not fully controlled to the extent needed for the revolution.
