Stalin, Language, Pronouns, Addiction, Cult
[This is all very shorthand rather than fleshed out, which would just take too long and unnecessary anyway.]
“Of all the monopolies enjoyed by the Soviet State none would be so crucial as its monopoly on the definition of words. The ultimate weapon of political control would be the dictionary.” (Robert Tucker ‘Stalin and the Uses of Psychology, 1956).
And in line with this, there was a strong focus on writing and re-writing dictionaries in the USSR after 1950.
Thus in our age, with the same ‘progressive’ ideology and cult, children are for example urged to pick their pronouns. Reality is undermined and re-assembled. The essence of the pronouns stuff, etc is that the human no longer inhabits reality, but is a cult member in the very active neurological structure of their minds. That is part of why addictions are so difficult to overcome. The addiction of course involves the external substance or activity to which one is addicted, but in a deeper sense it is this internal mechanism of the mind that has to be re-shaped. With the behavioural addiction, we have to again and again put the brakes on these habitual and addicted pathways of the mind.
And also to mention, madness is specifically the inhabiting of an intellectual hallucination. The person identifies to a great degree with a reality distorted by the delusional filter of their disturbed selves. And thus again with the modern ideology in action, “I identify as . . .” something other than what is - and this delusional identification is raised to the throne! A coup has taken place. Thus revolutionary ideology - reality is overthrown by the ideology/ intellectual hallucination.
And because it’s a cult in the obviously toxic sense, anyone not in the cult is deeply questionable, while anyone clearly opposed to it is vilified as, for example in Leninist terms “an enemy of the people” - and so inferentially not even a person! - while in the modern Western version, the threat to the cult is a racist or misogynist or fascist or whatever. Something utterly evil anyway. The all-good cult is threatened, the threat in its contrary state is by definition all-evil. Let’s rally to the cause and defeat these evil bigots!
And if you have ever encountered a cult in the more minor sense, if any threat particularly to the leader of the cult, even in the most seemingly harmless sense of not treating the leader as infallible, the cult members will unite as one like bees protecting the hive or queen, and act to repel the threat. And this is the core of “ Trump Derangement Syndrome.” The cult members go nuts at the appearance of this very unlikely threat to the cult. If it seriously needs stressing, people talking of things like “birthing persons” are most certainly deep in a cult.
See, at this stage, as I tried to show earlier regarding addiction, it’s not a belief about something external to the believer, but their very neurological state is one with what is believed in, the belief and the believer are the same phenomenon, and thus deconditioning is so deep or all-encompassing a process. And especially if the cult is on such a massive and all-encompassing level as is now, and where its adherents or cult members have generally no idea they’re even in a cult!

Cutting
Rock band, Countercultural Icons of Humanity, the offspring of the seminal Rockstars Against Freedom, have a new song coming out: I Was Cutting Edge Roughly Half a Century Ago.
The song is said to be full of an almost heartbreaking sense of yearning both for the past and for the future.

annoying
This is kind of an annoying picture in that I don’t like it very much, but it’s also maybe interesting enough that I can’t justify not working on it and giving it a chance to get to some proper finished state.

Relationship to the World
“ On the road of our approach to God stands the world– we must pass through the understanding of it. Every man has a mission connected with the world. Everyone must know it according to the power given to him, in as much as knowledge can’t come until the gaining of virtues; everyone must develop beforehand a moral activity of relationship to the world. A mainly negative attitude to the world frustrates salvation itself. The world is imposed on everyone as a stone for sharpening his spiritual faculties,”
St. Dumitru Staniloae (Orthodox Spirituality. St. Tikhon Seminary Press, pg. 205)

Gellerio is an electronic musician from Mordovia, while the far better known Divna Ljubokovic is a Serbian singer and conductor of Orthodox Christian sacred music, who has an amazingly powerful and pure voice. I can’t embed the song here, so here is the link instead:

Malcolm X and the White Liberals
There is of course nothing more refined and full of integrity than the progressive liberal, even if he or she is white.
And regarding Malcolm X’s description of the liberal as a deceitful fox, think of one of this ideology’s key words, fluid, like with someone’s gender identity. Well beyond the particulars, why is this word so key? If someone is fluid, they have no fixed values or identity. A conman or a pathological liar is fluid, someone with deep psychological, or in truth spiritual, problems diagnosed as borderline personality disorder in their sense of self is fluid, someone with no morals is entirely fluid - nothing is fixed, stable, every position, every loyalty can shift.
And I’d say it’s pretty certain that it is people immersed in the traumas termed, for example, borderline personality disorder who are easy prey to things like gender identity and transgender ideology - where they are offered a supposed answer to their unstable sense of self. “We’ll help screw up your sense of reality, pretend it’s a healthy confusion and unstability, which is fuel for our agendas, and then offer the supposed fixed solution to the confusion where stability will be attained.”
Deprogramming
I’m more posting this for the few lines said by Dave Rubin at the end here. It can take an awful lot to deprogramme cult members, and to be honest, if anyone is plugged into the mainstream media, then they are deep in a brainwashing cult. And unless they stop being plugged in, then they won’t get out of it.

trying to sort
Something out of which messy initial state I’ve at least been trying to see if I could sort out and turn into a proper piece.
