Elections: Let the People Have their Games
October 28, 2022
AS election day approaches, I look upon those, whether they be Democrats or Republicans, who believe elections will significantly change things with the same patronizing good-humor with which I would greet someone who believed aliens control his every thought.
Sometimes you have to let people have their illusions. There is nothing you can say.
As Brian Shilhavey writes:
For this system of perceived “democracy” to work where the masses are fooled into believing that they have some kind of control over how the country is run through the election process, there MUST be a two-party system, and two ONLY, and those two parties have to have a perceived opposition to each other on the “issues.”
Because the one thing the Globalists who actually run the country fear the most, is a unified public where the masses wake up and discover that “the emperor has no clothes,” and instead of half the country fighting the other half, they join forces and fight the true enemies of the people: the Wall Street Billionaires and Bankers.
I used to be part of the masses controlled by the propaganda, but I started waking up shortly after the year 2000 when I was in my 40s, and started running my own businesses in the U.S. and finding out that the U.S. Government was my biggest enemy in being successful, and it didn’t matter who was in office.
Now that I am in my 60s, it is all so easy to see, and what amazes me about this current generation, is that they have all observed election fraud in the past 6 years, and yet most of them still believe in their particular political party and voting.
The biggest force, by far, in elections is the media and the media is unelected. Case closed. Television advertising also requires Big Money. You can’t run without Big Money. And Big Money will never fund candidates who challenge Big Money.
Is this what the Founders really intended? Christophe Buffin de Chosal wrote in his book The End of Democracy, which I reviewed here:
Christian democracy’s vision of a democracy subject to moral principles which would limit its powers and safeguard both its morals and its liberty is a pipe dream. No limits on the democratic state’s powers do or can exist, except those it freely chooses to impose on itself. Any limits beyond these would contradict the principle of popular sovereignty.
Some think Christianity has a vocation to imbue democracy with values. They are right in theory, but they will labor in vain, for democracy is a relativistic system and is hostile to any moral constraints it has not given itself.
What is more Christians do not today constitute a real threat to democracy; on the contrary they are its victims, something they are not yet ready to acknowledge. Christians working to stop abortion and euthanasia are still far from realizing that if there were a true representation of the people and a truly accountable and impartial executive authority, it is unlikely their fight would have ever been necessary.
Political parties fundamentally are not all that different from each other (none challenges usurious central banking and even interference in elections by foreign citizens). They pit segments of voters against each other and create a climate of distrust. Voters are more suspicious of each other than the system itself. Democracy as it is today empowers the unprincipled. Only those with no ideals and convictions can be counted on to work for the money powers upon which the parties depend. Candidates come and go, the money powers have no term limits. They remain intact, moving relentlessly toward their objectives. Chosal wrote:
The first quality of a candidate is not his ideals or his popularity, but the ability to betray ideals and lie to the voters… The goal of a political party is to conquer the state, to occupy it in the strategic sense of the word. It must be in control of the state’s machinery and people its administration not simply to transform society, but above all to gain maximum advantages for the party members.
Political campaigns and elections are not the means by which the people express their political will. They are rituals of mock participation. When one looks at the growing abstention rate in elections one sees that this participation does not even amass anything close to political majorities in many elections. The elected represent a minority seizing power from the majority. “Abstentionism lifts a corner of the veil. It is an important indicator” of the loss of confidence in democracy itself, Buffin de Chosal writes. Ultimately the power of the parties is secondary to the power of those who control them.
Political power, in a democracy, thus has a tendency to grow weak and the money powers to grow stronger. The latter, however, will keep watch so that this is not seen, lest their be a popular movement rendering political power inaccessible to their advances, thereby harming their interests. It is in the vital interest of the two partners, the corrupter and the corrupted, to keep their agreements secret. What is more evident today is the extent of the media’s submission to the political power and the money powers. That is why the general public knows practically nothing of these dealings, and when they do accidentally come to light, the political power is able to easily denounce them as baseless calumnies.”
Go ahead vote. Go ahead root for your team. Hate the fans of the other team with a passion. Uuurgrgh! As Orwell envisioned in 1984, Hate! Hate! Hate! This catharsis may make you feel better, but it won’t change the fact that a large chunk of your income will go to bureaucracies not subject to election. Another big chunk of your previously taxed income will go to these bureaucracies after you die so your descendants will be as broke as you were. There’s a word for that. It’s called slavery. We the People, We the Manipulated.
The act of voting is sort of like doing a rain dance during a drought. Sure, you might just get rain. Was it your dancing that made the skies weep?

Another outstanding post. Elections are becoming increasingly grotesque mockeries. In PA we have a choice between a disabled, parasitic, extremely odd looking communist married to an illegal alien, who was part of the Wolfe regime which actively placed flu patients in nursing homes to infect and kill residents, and the alternate choice dual citizen Turkish muslim, Oprah protégé carpetbagger (endorsed by St. Trump, thank you very much). It appears that the satanic “elites” are now simply rubbing our noses in their obvious control of all institutions and are ripping away the illusions.
Although Frank Zappa was part of the CIA ’60’s cultural subversion, I find this quote very appropriate for the US today.
“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”

Thank you! Well said.
Fetterman looks like a character in a horror flick who picks people up off the street and devours them. I just can’t look at him. I can’t.

Wow.
That’s it. Whammo.
Do you even bother to vote, Laura?
