The eternally persistent dream of all tyrants everywhere is to turn all their subjects into robots. So many movies, if not all from Hollywood, have sprung up over the years from the foreheads of a long succession of Eastern inspired entrepreneurial Jupiter’s. Geography mixed with their infamous intentions has so often defeated their overestimated schemes. The emptiness of the ‘new world‘ where their easily expendable outcasts were routinely sent testing the mettle of the masses sent there to simply survive. And the distance from immediate surveillance leading to the development of an self-assured spirit of independence. Where several hundred years ago this playing field was physical the present has seen the equivalent in terms of an internal void where from cradles to grave in our technological era individual human consciousness is tossed off into a regimented factory floor mentality of being demoted to the status of replaceable cogs.
The model of technologically modern CCP run China is now so often held up as being exemplary in terms of modem macro societies. The abysmal bovine social plight of its citizens ever dismissed from view. Serfdom through technological slavery that turns every individual dwelling within every neighborhood into a solitary prison cell through a system of rigid control of any access to the necessity of raw resources of life. The chains of being compressed into dependency through the medium of monetized social credit scored exchange and misdirected notion of blind consumerism as a substitute for human existence. The centralized power structure encouraging constant dependency on one hand but then suddenly enforcing scarcity to bring their own private human pets into line to ensure the immediate satisfaction of any of their whims.
The tools brought to bear to confound the general citizenry being designed to demoralize, divide and conquer. Some of them being:
Dependency of daily information through ever changing and invasive technology. The myth of up to the minute news and information. Most of it slanted and outright false.
The mixed message being the most favored mode of command. Broadcast two diametrically opposing viewpoints that cannot be reconciled and then simply give commands after the frustration level challenging one’s capacity for a solution has been exhausted.
Asymmetrical psychological warfare through social network based computer feedback loops of voluntary participatory commentaries. Get people stirred up emotionally one moment with allegations about distant communities and then diffuse them the next with fake exhortations by anonymous based commentaries. The conclusions always the same inferring don’t bother yourself, someone else is taking care of it.
Ever changing fashions demanding regular seasonal replacement. Fashion for men stressing uniformity by exhibiting an illusion of strength. Fashion for women suggesting frivolous indulgence. Any homespun exhibition of individual taste subject to ridicule unless it can be co-opted by some overarching multinational industrial concern. The unisex fear based face diaper being the latest device to erase all public shows of personal individuality.
Which brings this particular diatribe to its central most analogy. The keystone to hegemonic control in the current situation depends upon the regular output of Hollywood styled entertainment that serve the function of mental conditioning in a predictive programming motif. One film standing out in an egregious sense as a perfect model of present tense society being one Zach Snyder’s green screen epic, “300“. The underlying irony that like all things Liberal and Hollywood it projects its villains seminal behaviors as unconscious cues to message the audience as to the best way for them to behave. The Persians being the director’s vision of society both now and in the future. Those designated as ‘heroes‘. simply bilious ego bound plate heads who will die off by the last reel. The overall body count meaningless because of course the little people are always the statistically expected casualties of any significant political action undertaken.
One might note the contrast of the two cults put at odds with each other. The ‘Spartans‘ being next to naked and generally aggressively uncivil to all but their own to which they have an almost obvious inferred homo erotic locker room towel snapping affiliation. The others cooperatively urbane in distinctly attired cadres regimented to act predictably to conveniently, and overtly enthusiastically, throw themselves before every spear point and sword thrust in theatrical choreography. No somewhat older generation styled ‘Dirty Dozen‘ unsophistication or “Where Eagles Dares‘ murderous chutzpah to outguess or outflank the plate heads. The only single self-empowered thinker in the entire batch being the visually disgusting hunchback whose presence seems an anathema to all. Something akin to the status of all those past tense hordes of unwanted immigrants of the old world who were shipped off over the last few hundred years to colonize exploitable territory by fertilizing it with their blood. It being not too ironic model of contemporary Marxist Liberal mindset being the larger than life cosmopolitan character Xerxes who presents all the glories of woke American culture at its very finest in terms of total contradictions. A combination of opposites that cannot exist for long in the scheme of a world of regular real peopled humanity.
The model of society presented being that the fate of all depends upon the senseless struggle of a few to maintain their own absurd stilted lifestyles. It’s own half-life doomed to be very brief and violent as it seems are own not under institutional duress from above seems to suggest. The masses destine to accomplish same not even afforded the dubious dignity of a smelly rag attired vocal challenged vox populi of a former “Braveheart“, uncoordinated hopelessly eclectic personality challenged rabble. The perfect playground of those running the casino to forever fleece when they walk in the door!
