Left Renewal & New Guard Fascism?
Whats is this? I read this morning that some of the PC Greens are raving about an anarchist segment of their party of purity ‘enforcing’ ideals on others. No. Can’t be.
Anarchism doesn’t allow for the forcing of ideas, views, conscience. That sounds like Fascism, divine right liberalism. Sounds like Pistol Pete and his new king! We really should stop all this ignorance and this corruption of terminology … Ever thought about going back to the history books, darlings? I knew we’d corrupted the education system but we can no longer blame Little Johnny and his kindergarten kids .. not anymore. We have the World Wide Web. Sure that’s a tangle of corporative misinformation and advertisement but if you kids get yourselves down to a library, a real repository of written information, all organised under that good old fashioned Dewey System, then you could come on back into your mum and dad’s bubble and lay about by the fire and learn something. Not something new, something true. Sure these old things can’t happen again, not in a brave new world, but in this new world of ignorance .. everything old can be new again – as long as you give it a different meaning from the one it once had.
Your internet is a corruption of a library. How anyone could mistake Anarchism for Fascism is beyond the bounds of millenia of stored human knowledge. Just because the King or his idiot ministers call their wanton ruination of this once great country – Australia – liberalism and bandy about ‘outcomes’ in the interest and for the good of all, doesn’t make it so. Just because some green PC advocate of Right Wing Feminism calls the defence of free speech and conscience a crime against humanity, doesn’t make it so. The means of arriving at an outcome is a much more important educational tool than to just have an outcome dumped down in front of you – regardless of who dumps it.
Why don’t we just burn all the books that have served as a repository for the combined and evolutionary learning of man – If we’re really not going to use them? If we’re not going to carry on the evolutionary process of knowledge, then let’s just set up kindergartens in those fine old buildings and feed the kids crap. The Corporative governments would love it – could teach the kids that freedom was slavery again and that slavery pays. The mind can be held in slavery just like the body.
