A Message of Hope for all the Disenfranchised Freethinking Wildings

THE WTF CLUB

When we take a sober view of mainstream western culture, we can observe many competing ideologies divided into a myriad of sub-genres and sub-categories but for simplicity purposes, let’s break down the four major quadrants:

At the top of our diamond model sits the all-powerful Ruling Degenerates, the spiritually diseased few who control the many. This group is comprised of an elite concentration of power and wealth that manipulates all the media messaging, political decision-making and is fully dedicated to ensuring that all the remaining quadrants are successfully divided amongst themselves, perceiving each other to be existential threats while the Degenerates pretty much get away with doing whatever they want.

To the right, we have the reactionary Nipple Dippers. They believe in a weird mythology surrounding what they refer to as ‘Western Values’ which they’re convinced are under attack, not from the Ruling Degenerates however, but from a fantasy version of the Degenerates whom they mistakenly perceive to be driven by a collectivist ideology. The trick here is that given how the only antidote to oligarchical rule is indeed collective action, the Degenerates have cleverly polluted the minds of the Nips to perceive all forms of collective action, not as the only hope for humanity, but as the very evil that will destroy humanity itself. It’s a very good magic trick and I’m only exposing it here because I don’t belong to the Ruling Degenerate contingent myself, however if theylet me in the club, I would most certainly keep my mouth shut. My loyalty comes cheap. If they can keep my bank balance sitting pretty at a cool one million (chump change for them), I won’t say a word about any of this stuff ever again. This is my sworn oath and solemn promise to the Degenerates.

To the left, we have the Gibbleheads who unlike the Nips are naturally oriented to think collectively and to look out for the weakest members of the group. As a self-described 'Satanic Christian,' the Gibbleheads lean closer to my natural instincts, however the Degenerates have cleverly manipulated this group over the years to perceive the Corporate State, not as the true source of our agonies, but as a benevolent force for humanity, thus completely neutralizing the threat of any collective action waged against them. Again, it’s another magic trick, and again, it's something I promise not to expose if I’m sufficiently compensated for mysilent suffering.

Finally, we have the remaining quadrant that is most problematic to the Corporate State, although even there, the magic tricks abound, although I’m not exposing them at this time because I’m giving the Degenerates one final chance to correct my bank balance before I do so. I call this quadrant the Freethinking Wildlings, those who live beyond the wall and bend the knee to no-one. The Wildlings don’t have all the answers, nobody does, but they understand one fundamental principle: that we're being deliberately divided against each other. Sadly however, as a consequence of the magic tricks I alluded to at the start of this paragraph, the majority of the Freethinkers have been conditioned to perceive themselves as fundamentally useless and unable to affect any material change. Of course, it doesn’t take a Ben Carson to understand how such a disposition benefits the interests of the oligarchs who are constantly struggling to find ways to perpetuate the basic framework of western society: the few controlling the many with the ever-present, collective threat of the many perpetually and efficiently neutralized.

In this excerpt from Cinephobia Radio Episode #34, I discuss some of these ideas with the fearless anti-war activist and FBI Whistleblower Coleen Rowley who at the time of this recording was set to sail to Gaza with the Freedom Flotilla to carry 5,500 tonnes of humanitarian aid for the victims of the Israeli genocide. Unfortunately, due to malignant machinations orchestrated by the lunatic state of Israel, the trip has been indefinitely postponed (we get into all the reasons for this on an upcoming episode).

But this segment is dedicated to all the disenfranchised Wildlings who’ve been deliberately and effectively conditioned to feel powerless in the face of these larger than life imperial forces. While it’s true that not all of us are as dedicated and as courageous as Ms. Rowley, and willing to sacrifice our very existences in the pursuit of justice and the deeply held humanitarian principles we believe we believe in, that doesn’t mean we have no agency or are unable to exert any effective pressure on the Degenerates.

As the late, great historian and cultural theorist Howard Zinn once declared, “Small acts, when multiplied by millions of people, can quietly become a power no government can suppress, a power that can transform the world.”
