Let’s say you suspect your significant other is cheating on you.
How does your significant other assuage your suspicions?
Well, a good start is to look at your significant other’s text messages to see if, in fact, they’ve been in contact with another person intimately. Preferably, you’d ask permission to look at their texts before you did.
What if they say no? What if they accuse you of being paranoid? Jealous?
What if they try to make you out to be the “bad guy”?
When all they have to do is just let you in and show you they are faithful?
Alternatively, you could stalk them and see where they go when you’re supposed to be indisposed. If they drive in to a shady motel when you’re at work, that’d be a good indicator of an affair as well.
Those would be ways to prove infidelity, but proof isn’t the issue here…
TRUST is the issue here. You see, the question of cheating can actually be settled quite simply. Just don’t lie to one another. Be open. Don’t keep secrets. Don’t shift blame when accused, it only makes you look more guilty.
Of course, we can’t always be assured that someone who claims to “love” us is or is not lying, especially if they’ve deluded themselves into thinking its “for our own good.” They may be so far gone that they believe that maintaining the illusion of a happy relationship is better than the truth. In such circumstances, you not trusting them is somehow WORSE than them cheating in the first place. Call it victim mentality, if you wish.
So, is it ever “wrong” to ask to see your significant other’s text messages and unlocked devices? Does that somehow prove your own jealousy or unfaithfulness in having suspected them of being unfaithful? Does that make YOU the baddie for daring question the character of the person you’re with; the person you claim to love?!
Well, let’s end the hypothetical and apply the same logic elsewhere…
The Government Lies. Always.
Why won’t they let us audit the election results?
For the same reason your significant other will not let you see their text messages.
Because they’re cheating.
They’re cheating, we know they’re cheating, they’re acting suspicious for a reason, and all that’s left is to see the dirty details and hear the lies and the “it didn’t mean anything”s.
Then come the “it’s actually your fault” excuses and “I did it for us!”
You see, the Government is like an unfaithful spouse. You can always guarantee they’re up to something rotten, whether it be abusing your children, spending money on useless crap, or sleeping around with your neighbors. Even if, by the Grace of God, the Government is being faithful, your various enemies prey on them day and night to sabotage your happy “marriage.”
So, you must always stand vigilant in the face of Government Infidelity.
For that reason, we must also assume that elections are, have been, and always shall be a grandstanding farce to try to save face in light of the Truth: the Government lies. That is its primary function. No Nation is truly as strong as it says it is. That’s just an act to try to convince enemy combatants that they cannot just walk all over the Nation’s people and do as it will. What’s stronger than a physical wall is a Spiritual Wall — a sign.
A sign that says, explicitly, “Fuck Around, Find Out!”
Here’s the dirty “truth” that is the result of our collective, fallen natures.
The Government MUST lie, by necessity, as it is the only protection from foreign onslaught. That is why Government is our universal “Necessary Evil.”
Unfortunately, there are merits to Government deceit.
The Wall you build in the mind of your enemies that tells them they CAN NOT is far more powerful than any corporeal wall one might construct. Posturing is every bit as important as backing up the threats in the first place. The illusion of strength is just as good as genuine strength itself.
“Strong Elections” show one of two things — that, one, a Government is capable of maintaining the illusion that its People are in control, thereby taming the beast, and, two, that the People are aware enough to demand blood if they don’t get an open choice in Government, even if it is ultimately illusory.
A Nation of people powerful enough to pursue Liberty, but dumb enough to be fooled by its counterfeit.
Dumb and Powerful. A formidable opponent, indeed.
That’s the most dangerous adversary. One that is sufficiently deluded yet violent enough to require such delusion in the first place. A raging beast kept docile only by a tender lullaby. This is why all of our modern Taskmasters have settled upon elections as a necessary control mechanism. If we had no avenue to address the guaranteed injustices the Government will impose upon our Sacred Liberties, we would revolt and the Nation would collapse due to civil strife. Likewise, should we have truly Free and Fair elections, we would inevitably disenfranchise minority tribes within the Nation until they ultimately revolt for lack of attention from their Government sugar daddies.
Here’s the deal…
ALL elections are rigged because if they weren’t some would be pushed to violence due to the perceived hopelessness of realizing their values.
Elections are Pacifiers.
Let’s say EVERY election resulted in an 80-20% split in the results. One side ALWAYS gets their way, no matter what. Majority rules, after all. As long as you get 51% of the vote, you’re the guy in charge.
But, what of the 20% who are never heard? Tribes must occasionally be appeased, even if they’re objectively, spiritually, or morally wrong. It’s just a numbers game. The more angry people there are who are backed into a corner, the more guns pointed at your crotch.
What that ultimately means is that if they don’t get their “time to shine,” eventually 20% of the population will be shoved into a corner and revolt. You cannot avoid this. The bullet box is the last option after the ballot box fails to address their complaints and grievances. It ultimately doesn’t matter what is “right” or “wrong” because people don’t care about being right or wrong, they just want their own way.
That’s what makes us fallen. We’re babies. We’re selfish. We want it, and we want it now. Damn the consequences!
We will vote ourselves money, and think nothing of how that might effect the future…
For example, it is morally right to not entertain abortion as an industry, because the way that particular industry increases its profits is an objective detriment of the Nation. How does an abortionist increase profits? More abortions. How do you get more abortions? More wanton sexual deviancy. Is wanton sexual deviancy a moral good? No? Then neither can abortion as an industry, which seeks to exacerbate the worst of humanity in order to achieve profit. That’s not even addressing the fact that abortion reduces the population, whose safeguarding is supposed to be the primary purpose of the Government in the first place. A Nation that seeks its own extinction cannot persist. It’s that simple.
Yet, that’s not what’s really at question here, however. Despite what you might assume about “right” and “wrong” when your vote is punched into that magic machine that “determines the fate of the Nation,” the question is really whether or not people are going to be pissed off enough at the results to take to arms and overthrow the “other team.”
How many times do you have to lose, even if you’re wrong, before you say “fuck it” and open fire?
How do you pacify people, good or bad, right or wrong, when they operate under the air of righteous indignation?
How do you solve the problem of people getting pissed off, to the point of violence, for not getting their problems addressed, whether or not you think those problems are petty, selfish, stupid, or otherwise.
People will still bitch and moan.
When bitching and moaning fails, what happens next?
Burn. Loot. Murder.
Therefore, we have elections. To let pressure out of the pressure cooker, from time to time.
But, we don’t just have elections — we have rigged elections, by necessity.
It Has To Look Close
What’s disappointing about it all is that not only are elections ALWAYS rigged for more Government, because why would the Government EVER permit itself LESS power?…
No… It’s that so long as the People can say “we’ll win next time” they will be sufficiently pacified such that they will drag their feet four or so more years until they can “even the score.”
Elections pit us against one another, brother against brother, but make it look close enough such that there is still hope you can “convince” the other side to relent every now and then. If it was always an 80-20% split, as more reflects reality, the Government would inevitably end up in the crosshairs. However, if they can make it look like a mirror match, like a sports match, then everyone goes home feeling like they just have to work harder next time.
In reality, the game is ALWAYS rigged 80-20%. It always has been. It always will be.
There’s too much corporate money tied up into any election for it to be anything other than a cheat…
Do you really thing BIG MONEY isn’t going to make sure their investments always pan out?
Occasionally they let the good guys “have one” just to let pressure out of the pressure cooker, but never enough to reverse course.
At the very least, it’s all to keep us entertained. True to the whole “bread and circuses” scheme.
80% of people are good. Good, but lazy. 20% of people are evil. Irredeemably evil, and most don’t even see themselves that way. They revel in sin, and convince themselves good is evil and evil is good.
So, what happens if the 80% good people win 100% of the time?
The 20% who are most keen on committing heinous violence will, surprise surprise, be INCREDIBLY VIOLENT!
And, sadly, the good people will let them…
Good people simply don’t fight unless pushed to the existential brink. Good people just want to be left alone.
In contrast, bad people, sinful people, will fight tooth and nail to maintain access to their vices. It comes easy for them because you can always expect a sinner to commit yet more sins to sustain their sinful ways. They’ve already sold their soul to pleasure and shortcuts, why not tack on one more to the pile?
An unfaithful spouse cheats. They lie to hide the infidelity. They gaslight and manipulate you to further sustain that lie. Eventually, they may seek to trick you into sinning yourself so that they may look less despicable by comparison.
That is the vicious cycle — the Mark of the Beast. Doubling down on a losing strategy. Getting stuck in a loop, a snare, which is Bondage, well and truly.
Do you know why they won’t let us audit the vote?
Because we risk finding out 80% of the population is being grossly disenfranchised to appease the violent 20% and everything we suffer through is to pacify the cries of whiny babies who cannot understand that actions have consequences. As it turns out 20% of people very often overpower 80% of people, because their fear, lust, gluttony, selfishness, envy, greed, pride, and anger drive them to do so.
If we find out that the worst among us always get their way, thanks to elections, we might not want them anymore… That’s not very good for our current Government and their methods of control, now is it?
If we knew how much of a real “majority” we really were, we wouldn’t be stepping on eggshells working about offending people or being politically correct, now would we?
Such compulsion only exists thanks to the illusion of being branded by some form of name-calling — of being “weird.” Peer pressure works well to keep good men from doing the right thing…
Meanwhile, good people just sit idle hoping the men in suits don’t come knocking on their doors next, for doing nothing other than NOT participating in the vices and deceit.
Yet, if the good people realized they weren’t outnumbered, if they realized that the Evil which at their front door was putting on an act to look tough and powerful, then they would actually fight back. They would stand their ground. They would opt for the bullet box when the mad men say “you who are not like us, you are mad!”
It is for that reason, and for any Government which is naturally infidelitous, that the powers that be always rig elections around the 51-49% margin. They do this to prevent the 20% from becoming raving lunatics. You can look at it as good and bad, right and wrong. This is simply as it must be until we get over our fallen natures.
A Necessary Evil…
What this Means for our Elections?
What I’ve laid out, despite it being rather depressing, is just how things are and have been for centuries now. When it was clear Feudal Kingdoms couldn’t work in the face of the Enlightenment thinkers’ and their socio-philosophical machinations, our Taskmasters devised an alternative form of Tyranny to keep us pacified through smoke, mirrors, and ballot boxes.
The biggest sin of Elections as an institution is the “passing the blame” of it all. People want to shirk their responsibilities. They want someone else to take care of all of society’s problems. Just as with appointing kings, judges, or dictators to “take the blame” for when things go wrong, we collectively presume we can be found blameless by checking off some names every few years and then magically we can just say “it’s not my fault things are bad, I voted the ‘right’ way.”
Yet, here we are, still having to live with the consequences of foolish decisions. Regardless of whether there is an ethical or moral “correct” choice, we still sought to shirk our responsibility simply so we can say “it’s not my fault!”
That is why we suffer…
There are good and bad Kings alike, yet Authority is always derived from the People and the Creator which bestowed upon them, the Mantle. Our rulers may have traded crowns for suit ties, but their antics are every bit the same….
“Do as I say, or else.”
It is ALWAYS our own fault that we allow Evil to rule over us. Good men doing nothing is how Evil thrives.
What all this means for us today is that we have an entirely new form of Tyranny to face down. They know this system, that has kept the masses pacified and under the illusion that Red and Blue teams are equally matched, is at the cusp of structural collapse. Mass Media and the Internet has forced us to accept that no one and nothing can be trusted. It was their mistake letting us have access to their shiny toys.
Everyone who is paid to say something is paid to lie. People are waking up to this immutable fact.
Telling the Truth is often the least lucrative strategy…
So, the Truth must be free to be trusted. Probably not the best lesson, but its the only one that has a positive K/D ratio at this point.
Everything you read has been put there with ulterior motives. You must assume as much, otherwise you are like gullible prey for the scammer and conman to predate upon. Live or die, believe or be skeptical.
Take the shot. Drink the koolaide. Believe the TV man.
Or resist…
The choice is yours.
This may well be the LAST election we ever hold — not because the Tyrants will take over but because WE THE PEOPLE are sick of the INTENTIONALLY BROKEN systems.
If that sounds bad to you, if that offends your sense of liberty, I want you to heavily consider where your sense of liberty is derived.
Is the majority ALWAYS right?
Does MIGHT make RIGHT?
No?
Then how can elections be Free and Fair by design? How can we live in a just and fair world when half the time we must endure gross injustices of a moralistically, objectively WRONG origin being forced upon us? All to sustain this farce we call “majority rule”?
What is Liberty? What is Freedom?
Can Liberty be wrong? Can Freedom be wrong?
If not, then should we EVER permit the objectively WRONG to “have their time at the controls” just because we’re afraid of their threats to Burn, Loot, and Murder if they don’t occasionally get their opportunity to pillage our Nation’s coffers and prosperity?
Do you see what I’m saying?
Elections are fucked.
They’ve always been fucked.
It’s been a race until one side or the other figured out just how bad it was and how to use its weaknesses to ensure predictable outcomes.
The reason we still cling to them is because they did a good job convincing us with smoke and mirrors that we ever had a say in whose turn it is to viciously rape our sovereignty.
Elections are broken by design. It was just the best our forefathers could muster. Everyone settled on them as a concession, because everyone has serious trust issues. Elections cannot guarantee the most satisfactory outcome, because the threat of a minority revolting, despite what the majority rules, always empowers the Government to lie to make it look “close enough” to not question the outcome…
Even though monsters, sinners, thieves, and fiends get their time to do UNTOLD DAMAGE to our Nation… It’s purely because the alternative is that Good men have to get off their asses and say NO to their cheating spouses when they start messaging a hunk or whore at the bar. And, let me tell ya, that’s just not how things shake out in real life. People want to ignore the elephant in the room.
The Truth is inconvenient.
Like a water leak. You know you need to rip up the floor and address the damage before it gets worse. You still don’t want to do it. Why? Because it’s inconvenient. Because it means work. The most powerful vice that empowers Evil is sloth, because lazy men are a prerequisite for evil men to get away with their crimes.
The Last Election
This may well be the LAST election, and that might not be a bad thing.
Heavily contend with a future where evil, dumb, and deluded people are no longer allowed to have their way — where the objectively RIGHT way is realized 100% of the time, despite the protestations of people who “WANT IT NOW!”
It certainly doesn’t look like the system we have now.
It doesn’t look like any system we’ve ever had, in fact.
I freely admit that it is a pipe dream to believe we could EVER have a system that promotes the good we OUGHT to do rather than the good we MUST do, “or else.”
Who gets to determine what is “right” and “wrong”?
Who gets to determine who gets the authority to appoint that person?
That’s the ultimate question elections TRIED AND FAILED to address.
We have elections to try and appease the masses in pursuit of answering the question “who gets to determine what is right and what is wrong?” So many have suffered in the interim period to find out why this system’s flaws are now buckling in the face of an over-informed People. These are the big existential questions with no clear answer. Yet, they may well be clearer than they’ve ever been…
How do you balance the will to do the good with the free will to do the good?
Are good people good because they have no choice except to do the good thing?
Isn’t that just Tyranny by another name? An abdication of Free Will? The loss of the Freedom to Fail?
You cannot be Truly Free unless you are Free to Fail.
It is Temptation and the Will to Sin which makes a Sinner. Committing the acts just finalize the contract with the Devil.
It is for that reason that I suspect we aren’t ever going to have another “normal” election again after this. The veil is lifting. People are starting to understand this entire farce we call elections CANNOT and NEVER WILL BE “FREE AND FAIR” because the powers that be are incentivized to see that they never shall be.
At the very least, there are just way too many ways to cheat now…
How can you trust a spouse who can be in contact with every man in a 10 mile radius at every minute of every day? How can you trust them to resist that temptation?
Just as a Government will never vote itself less power and less control, elections will never result in an 80-20% split without the 20% becoming ravenous and devouring the peace of the land in their desperation.
This is why they have resorted to playing games with our elections.
They KNOW the system is broken. They know its time is up.
So, now they play games…
Elections have turned into a garbage day, where everyone just offloads their angst and complaints, airing them and yelling into the aether hoping some form of magic ends up making the bad things go away. If you point out just how trashy and flagrant the fraud is, they will call you mad for saying their dumpster fire of a system could do anything but absolve you of your sins by just checking off a few names…
They cheat so blatantly to chide and provoke us into becoming the violent faction, so they come out as Tyrants on top — claiming they “had to” drop the hammer to maintain “peace.” They let the 20% win 100% of the time, because they want the 80% to perform the role of the violent mob. This is how they win — by making good men do evil things just to survive.
All this is a result of elections showing their rust — an imperfect system but the only one that’s kept the fires of war from consuming us thus far. Made for an age that’s no longer of this world. That time is over. We NEED to talk about what comes next. Elections, the system, is diseased. They’ve gamified it so much that they know how to play the cheat cards better than anyone can play legitimately.
I hate saying it, but we need an alternative that guarantees the RIGHT WAY is the outcome 100% of time time without falling into the trap of “one size fits all.”
An impossible task?
Yes, I agree. Now you understand were Humanity is on the cosmic timeline.
I do not like saying this. I truly wish a Representative Elective Process would work and solve all our problems. As with all things, however, corruption guarantees that eventually all systems succumb to their various failings — because the Evil ones work tirelessly to devise methods to subdue and indenture such systems to their nefarious whims.
Elections have been fully gamified. Put to a simple science. The enemy knows the secret button combination to guarantee outcomes. We need to adapt and devise a new system that hasn’t been so meticulously de-engineered. Elections, unfortunately, are a liability.
I suspect that is why Trump said this…
We are at a make or break point.
We very well may be entering an era where politicians can no longer lie and get away with it…
It may, well be the only way forward.
Either we put pettiness aside and stop warring with one another, or the fire consumes us. [They] will not give us another chance. Regardless of what happens next, I assure you elections as we know them will be seen as relics of the past, every bit as archaic as chucking virgins into a volcano hoping that “things will just work themselves out.”
Nope…
Don’t be gullible. Don’t be naive.
After all we’ve seen, trusting elections ever again would be like trusting an unfaithful spouse. There is always that lingering that something is not right. You are a fool for staying with someone capable of betraying you so viciously. There’s a reason there is such societal pressure built up in the first place against cheating! Because once the cat is out of the bag, NO ONE CAN TRUST YOU AGAIN!
Nor should they…
We are entering a Post-Trust world.
And while uncomfortable, that might not be a bad thing.
It’s just the next step in Human History.
An age of Total Government Skepticism — the result of a despicable preceding age of Total Government Infidelity.
We need to come up with a new system, by necessity, because all the old ones have been theory-crafted by the enemy into a state of complete liability. I hate that’s the case, but until we can solve the “evil people doing evil things” problem, we have to keep ahead of this rat race…
