THE fact that the globalist establishment is making it increasingly fashionable for people to discuss personalities, rather than ideas, has led to modern politics evolving into a vast soap opera. Whether it is Barack Obama said to be ‘uncomfortable’ in Vladimir Putin’s company, Benjamin Netanyahu and Obama sharing a ‘mutual dislike’ of one another, Angela Merkel allegedly being ‘frightened’ of Putin’s dog or Boris Johnson behaving like ‘one of the lads,’ the emphasis has been conveniently transferred to the level of the utterly mundane.

Consequently, given that a fairly significant number of people are reasonably ignorant, often through no fault of their own, this means that an increasing number of them now feel qualified to engage in what they perceive to be political debate. I have spent over forty years trying to get people interested in politics, so whilst this development may sound very positive it means very little when the actual standard of discourse has deteriorated to such an extent that people cannot see beyond the simplistic ‘either/or’ dichotomy of the common rabble.

There will always be leaders and followers, such is the nature of humankind, but when you observe those who tell us they are ‘wolves’ behaving like common sheep and trotting along beside the rest of the herd, you know that we face an uphill struggle. Governments and politicians may come and go, but the present elites have been in control for several centuries and things will not change until the economic situation worsens considerably.

As the great English radical, William Cobbett (1763-1835), once said: “I defy you to agitate any fellow with a full stomach.” None of us wish to suffer, and to advance hardship as the fundamental basis of a political programme would be disastrous, but the fact remains that unless we begin to seriously undermine the System then the current tyranny will continue to roll on unopposed for another few centuries. It is highly likely that things will begin to deteriorate in the present century, particularly with the rapid decline of the earth’s most valuable resources, but if you keep endorsing the Establishment by voting in the electoral system our liberation will continue to be postponed. Over and over again.

Apart from making positive changes to our own lives, something that we can all do immediately, for people to become completely disenchanted with politicians is merely the first step on the revolutionary path. Confronting someone, or mocking them, simply because you have decided to disagree with their choice of political puppet is like blaming low wages and poor working conditions on the manager of a factory when the owner is clearly to blame. Let’s face it, many of us here already know who really controls the ‘factories’ of Europe and North America, yet how often do we get to see their faces?

Once we learn to reject party politics and form a collective resistance against the nation-states and their mercenaries, we shall finally get to step into the boardrooms of power and drag these bloodsuckers screaming from the shadows. And when that moment arrives, it will be the result of having rejected the System completely and neither strengthened nor validated it through personal engagement in the System itself.
