There is a battle going on for the hearts and minds of the entire world. It is a battle between tyranny and liberty. The Western World, which has brought greater technological advances than any other society, has advanced the concepts of freedom, individual liberty, and the concept of self-determination and rule by the many to every corner of the world (although it has not stuck in every corner of the world,) is being attacked and undermined from all sides. The choice is ours as to what side we take in this war but we will all need to choose a side. Inaction is a choice in support of tyranny.

The principles of Western Society which developed the societies of Greece and Rome, as well as serving as foundational philosophies of European and American societies are not only no longer being taught they are being aggressively undermined and attacked by the elite in academia, the financial world, business, government bureaucracy, and even government leadership. The media, social networks, and even our news services are all linked together and owned by the self-same elite who participate in the World Economic Forum and are striving for the economic and technological domination of the world. Their goal is the creation of a consumerist, materialistic, controlled society that does not recognize individual liberty, autonomy, or freedom of movement, thought, or creation.

There are a multitude of lies being spread about the Western World and there is no way we can address all of them here. New generations have had them so ingrained in them that many cannot understand the truth even if it has been presented to them.
The Western world has been charged with slavery and colonialism but all cultures in all times have had slavery and domination by the powerful. It is a human condition and not a trait of the Western World. In fact, until the rise of the Western World, these things were not questioned but simply accepted as fact. It was Western culture, led by the principles of Western philosophers and statesmen who first moved to eradicate slavery from the world they have largely succeeded but only in Western countries. Today there are many more slaves in the world than there were in 1800s America with current estimates given at 27 million persons in slavery in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa mostly.
The Ashanti Empire in Africa was built on slavery and the sale of African slaves captured in war were traded to slave ships on the coast of Africa. They did not start this because of the West they were doing it before and simply found a new way to profit from it. But, in February of 1807, the British Empire banned the international slave trade in the British Empire. While they were the first to act the US Constitution, ratified and accepted in 1787 stipulated in section nine that Congress could not prohibit the import of slaves until 1808. But as the founding documents of the Revolution and the US espoused the principles of freedom the eventual end of slavery was anticipated by many, if not most, of the signers. So it was stipulated that nothing could be done by congress until 1808. In December 1806 President Thomas Jefferson (who has sustained merciless attacks as a slaveholder in today’s media) advocated such action in his address to congress. States which had espoused freedom and equality in its founding documents. On March 2nd, 1807 Congress passed a law banning the international slave trade in America at the start of 1808 and Thomas Jefferson signed it into law the very next day. Somehow, in all the anti-slavery and racist rhetoric of today no one mentions that – nor do they mention that Jefferson’s draft of the Declaration of Independence included an indictment of the British Crown for slavery (you will find a copy of Jefferson’s proposed draft at the end of this blog.) From 1808 the British Navy, later aided by the US Navy was blockading the West Coast of Africa in an attempt to end the international slave trade (another thing ignored in modern media is that President Jefferson Davis of the Confederate States of America declared and signed into law that the Confederate Navy would join that of the US and British in the blockade of the West African slave trade – although due to US blockade of Southern ports they were never able to do so.) Thousands of white sailors dedicated to the principles of Western culture died in the attempt to end the slave trade – they impounded over 1600 slave-ships, and freed over 150,000 slaves. Later over 600,000 white soldiers would die in America to free those still in slavery in North America.

This was a revolutionary idea to the rest of the world and developed from Western philosophy and is a founding principle of the United States. An idea that spread a revolution from which Republican forms of government have spread unprecedented levels of liberty, education, freedom, and technological advances throughout the world. Far from the Western World being the cause of slavery and tyranny it is the Western World that was the first culture in the world that identified slavery as heinous and tried to ban it, and declared that the people should rule themselves. Yet, led by lies, masses of people tear down statues of generals and abolitionists and our founders who fought these battles to bring liberty, justice, and the idea of personal rights and self-governance to the rest of the world. They are concepts that were foreign to the rest of the world. Yet foolish people attack these figures and statues while doing NOTHING to free the slaves of today. I guess it’s easier to tear down statues than to fight actual corruption and the elites who are controlling the narrative. Especially if you have never learned the truth despite whatever degree you may have been given.
These are just a couple of examples of how the truth of our culture and history have been warped in the modern narrative and you can readily see how it has affected our society. The West has repeatedly fought and died for the principles that it stands for and this seems to be recognized by everyone except the younger generations who were raised in the West. It is truly bizarre. If these principles are lost the world will be plunged into the technological, cyberpunk dystopia whose reality will be darker than the movies of Elysium, Blade Runner, and even the rise of the Empire in Star Wars. And while it may not be as dark as Resident Evil or the Walking Dead when you add modern weapons, engineered viruses, technological tyranny and control as used by the CCP in China, and the Mass Formation of networks and news services controlled by the same oligarchs who seek total control you have a Dark Age that is far darker than the Dark Ages following the fall of the Roman Empire.
In one online discussion group I belonged over a decade ago I presented a news clip from a country in Africa. In it a young teenage woman had been raped. She did not have the witnesses required to profess her innocence in a fundamentalist Muslim culture and so the police she went to for help considered her no better than a whore and raped her again. Then they stoned her for being a whore. I brought this up because they were saying that a good, spiritual person would always obey the laws of the country they were in. I asked what they would do if the young woman had come to them for help. “I would call the police,” the responded. “The police raped her,” I answered. “I would contact the authorities to enforce the law.” “That was the law in that society.” He could not understand that there were societies that did not think like we do.

This assumption that Western society is the norm when it is actually the exception to the tyranny and oppression that has dominated the world for all of recorded history and still dominates in most of the world today. Western culture was the first to espouse equality under the law, liberty, equality, individual rights, creativity, and freedom of expression and it is the norm of the West but NOT the norm in the world nor has it ever been the norm throughout the world. Most people today seem to be completely ignorant that these beliefs are exceptional to the West, were developed by Western philosophers, and spread to every corner of the world through Western colonialism and Western Education.
These are literally foreign concepts to the majority of the world. Yet they are the concepts that must prevail if we are to build the bright and glorious future envisioned by Star Trek – or the best days of the Galactic Republic of Star Wars, or even the barely tolerable future envisioned in The Expanse and other stories. The reality of this world, stripped of the inherent values that have been built by Greco-Roman and Western scholars and philosophers and spread by classical education and Western culture will be a nightmare world that will make the fiction appear mild. It should be obvious to anyone who understands human nature, the history of the world, and the struggle between tyranny and liberty. The consumerist utopia of the oligarchs is the nightmare dystopia of the common man. The elite have no sympathy or mercy in them for the common masses who they consider lesser beings nor for the rank and file who will enforce their tyranny.
Saint Ignatius de Loyola represented our choices in life as if Christ held the banner of truth, goodness, justice, and life; while Satan held the banner of lies, evil, domination, suffering, and death. It was up to us to choose which banner we serve. Everyone makes that choice every hour of the day in their actions, in what they say and do, and what they do not say or do not do. The Bible says that “he who knows in his heart what is right to do, and does not do it, for him it is sin.” So everyone makes that choice and doing nothing is the choice to serve Evil.
This is the battle of our generation. Will Western values of freedom, equality, justice, and human rights prevail or will they be swallowed up in the lies and machinations of the powerful elite who want more power? There may have never been a battle in history more important because it is a question of whether the majority of eight billion people live in freedom or will all eight million live in a technologically enforced nightmare of dominance and tyranny. The choice is yours.

This is a big task and a terrible responsibility for the generations living today. Based upon our choices the world will experience light or darkness, freedom or tyranny, truth or lies, happiness or dystopia.

A Declaration of the Representatives of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, in General Congress assembled.
When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for a people to advance from that subordination in which they have hitherto remained, & to assume among the powers of the earth the equal & independant station to which the laws of nature & of nature’s god entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the change.
We hold these truths to be sacred & undeniable; that all men are created equal & independant, that from that equal creation they derive rights inherent & inalienable, among which are the preservation of life, & liberty, & the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these ends, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government shall become destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, & to institute new government, laying it’s foundation on such principles & organising it’s powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety & happiness. prudence indeed will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light & transient causes: and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. but when a long train of abuses & usurpations, begun at a distinguished period, & pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to subject them to arbitrary power, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government & to provide new guards for their future security. such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; & such is now the necessity which constrains them to expunge their former systems of government. the history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations, among which no one fact stands single or solitary to contradict the uniform tenor of the rest, all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. to prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.
he has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good:
he has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate & pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has neglected utterly to attend to them.
he has refused to pass other laws for the accomodation of large districts of people unless those people would relinquish the right of representation, a right inestimable to them, formidable to tyrants alone:
he has dissolved Representative houses repeatedly & continually, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people:
he has refused for a long space of time to cause others to be elected, whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise, the state remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, & convulsions within:
he has endeavored to prevent the population of these states; for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither; & raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands:
he has suffered the administration of justice totally to cease in some of these colonies, refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers:
he has made our judges dependant on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and amount of their salaries:
he has erected a multitude of new offices by a self-assumed power, & sent hither swarms of officers to harrass our people & eat out their substance:
he has kept among us in times of peace standing armies & ships of war:
he has affected to render the military, independant of & superior to the civil power:
he has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitutions and unacknoleged by our laws; giving his assent to their pretended acts of legislation, for quartering large bodies of armed troops among us;
for protecting them by a mock-trial from punishment for any murders they should commit on the inhabitants of these states;
for cutting off our trade with all parts of the world;
for imposing taxes on us without our consent;
for depriving us of the benefits of trial by jury;
for transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offences: for taking away our charters, & altering fundamentally the forms of our governments;
for suspending our own legislatures & declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever:
he has abdicated government here, withdrawing his governors, & declaring us out of his allegiance & protection:
he has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns & destroyed the lives of our people:
he is at this time transporting large armies of foreign merce naries to compleat the works of death, desolation & tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty & perfidy unworthy the head of a civilized nation:
he has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes, & conditions of existence:
he has incited treasonable insurrections in our fellow-subjects, with the allurements of forfeiture & confiscation of our property:
he has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating it’s most sacred rights of life & liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended him, captivating & carrying them into slavery in another hemisphere, or to incur miserable death in their transportation thither. this piratical warfare, the opprobrium of infidel powers, is the warfare of the CHRISTIAN king of Great Britain. determined to keep open a market where MEN should be bought & sold, he has prostituted his negative for suppressing every legislative attempt to prohibit or to restrain this execrable commerce: and that this assemblage of horrors might want no fact of distinguished die, he is now exciting those very people to rise in arms among us, and to purchase that liberty of which he has deprived them, & murdering the people upon whom he also obtruded them; thus paying off former crimes committed against the liberties of one people, with crimes which he urges them to commit against the lives of another.
in every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms; our repeated petitions have been answered by repeated injury. a prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a people who mean to be free. future ages will scarce believe that the hardiness of one man, adventured within the short compass of 12 years only, on so many acts of tyranny without a mask, over a people fostered & fixed in principles of liberty.
Nor have we been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. we have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend a jurisdiction over these our states. we have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration & settlement here, no one of which could warrant so strange a pretension: that these were effected at the expence of our own blood & treasure, unassisted by the wealth or the strength of Great Britain: that in constituting indeed our several forms of government, we had adopted one common king, thereby laying a foundation for perpetual league & amity with them: but that submission to their parliament was no part of our constitution, nor ever in idea, if history may be credited: and we appealed to their native justice & magnanimity, as well as to the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations which were likely to interrupt our correspondence & connection. they too have been deaf to the voice of justice & of consanguinity, & when occasions have been given them, by the regular course of their laws, of removing from their councils the disturbers of our harmony, they have by their free election re-established them in power. at this very time too they are permitting their chief magistrate to send over not only soldiers of our common blood, but Scotch & foreign mercenaries to invade & deluge us in blood. these facts have given the last stab to agonizing affection, and manly spirit bids us to renounce for ever these unfeeling brethren. we must endeavor to forget our former love for them, and to hold them as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace friends. we might have been a free & great people together; but a communication of grandeur & of freedom it seems is below their dignity. be it so, since they will have it: the road to glory & happiness is open to us too; we will climb it in a separate state, and acquiesce in the necessity which pronounces our everlasting Adieu!
We therefore the representatives of the United States of America in General Congress assembled do, in the name & by authority of the good people of these states, reject and renounce a11 allegiance & subjection to the kings of Great Britain & all others who may hereafter claim by, through, or under them; we utterly dissolve & break off a11 political connection which may have heretofore subsisted between us & the people or parliament of Great Britain; and finally we do assert and declare these a colonies to be free and independant states, and that as free & independant states they shall hereafter have power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, & to do all other acts and things which independent states may of right do. And for the support of this declaration we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, & our sacred honour.
Thomas Jefferson’s original draft of the Constitution edited in committee. When Franklin pressed to remove the indictment of slavery, for the sake of unity of all the colonies, Jefferson made four amended copies for debate. But he left in the indictment of slavery and placed one line through it so it could be read by all present. Why does no one mention this today?
