Dear Readers-- if you follow me on a regular basis then I apologize for my absence. My last post was on February 16th regarding the Save America Act (which sadly, is still stuck in the Senate) To explain, I'm in the plant business and Spring is a very busy time for me- not to mention on April 1 I was bitten by a pit bull (and that ain't no April Fools joke!). That has taken quite a bit of my attention and occupied my mind. That entire fiasco will be addressed in a future blog (I think. It depends if the mood strikes me to review the entire episode). As of right now the saga is still not really over but I do feel I've rounded the curve to the finish line.
Today this title- "Tyrants of Thought" popped in my head and I thought to myself "that would be a great title to one of my blogs", so here I am! What will this be about, I'm not totally sure- but I guess we'll find out shortly. By the way I am working on a book- titled "An American Voice" or "A Voice of Reason"- I haven't made up my mind. Maybe another title? "Tyrants of Thought"? It will be an elaboration on some of my humble opinions regarding ways to fix our broken, blubbery, fat, ineffective government. My intention is to have it published an Amazon Publishing and posted with links to purchase here on my blog that you're reading right now. My goal was to have it published by my daughter's birthday, May 5, but because of the dog bite that idea went off the rails. Now, my goal is July 4 on time for the USA's 250th birthday.
Who are the Tyrants of Thought? If you've read this blog you know that I refer to the "powers that be" here in the early 21st Century as "The Silent Tyrants" and also on occasion "Mad King George" to refer to the dictators that rule us through media and big government and academia and global corporations (as well as domestic corporations, they surely are not innocent!). They are all complicit in controlling us and our thoughts, however in particular, the rulers of media, the press, and academia are the vectors of tyrannical thought where their ideas and ways of seeing things are sacrosanct and anything contrary is blasphemous or heresy to the "new world order" that they have been working on so hard and for so long. Tyrants of thought are not only in these groups, they're in the schools and the churches and everywhere that people gather and move forward to act as a group. These people tend to be more the minions of the "tyrants of thoughts" and are not where the tyrannical thoughts spring forth from. They are, however, just as dangerous to you and me because they are the "useful idiots" that the tyrants instruct to do their bidding. They don't think for themselves, and they run on passion and emotion rather than rational thought and common sense.
An example of "TOT" (Tyrants of Thought) would be Trump Derangement Syndrome at the local level where the minions have been instructed and are obeying the edicts of the corporate media and the globalists to hate Donald Trump. The rationale is that he's dictator and a Nazi or a King, etc.... whereas the fact that they are able to say such things on the street corner with no fear of retribution is evidence that he actually is not. It also is an example of their lack of understanding of our government and how it works- no one person can get his or her way as President. That would not be true if we had the absolute government that they crave controlling everything. That is true dictatorship as what we saw in Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. The irony is they are the very people that would enable our government to such power and use its power to encroach on the rights of their neighbors. This we saw during the COVID pandemic with elaborate fanfare as citizens told on their neighbors for having more than 5 visitors or people were denied visitation to dying family members.
In my humble opinion, here is a list of the thoughts that tyrannical leaders through various methods, are ruling us and intimidating all of us to think and to not question. If something is not up for debate or is "settled science" then it is more than likely a tyrannical thought that springs from someone who benefits that we all think the way the want us to think. On this list, many are such a part of the Silent Tyrants' agenda, that if you don't agree with them then their minions will defriend you off Facebook, etc... and you are not to be addressed again. You are "persona non grata" as the Latin saying goes.
The Edicts of the Thought Tyrants
1) Donald Trump is an insane tyrant.
2) Climate Change is real.
3) All vaccines are good and are completely safe.
4) People are born gay; they don't choose to be gay.
5) People who identify as the opposite sex are totally sane and should be encouraged and enabled to do so.
6) The universe is billions of years old.
7) The Theory of Evolution is fact, not theory.
8) All physical reality can be explained through science, if scientists don't have the answer now, they will eventually.
9) The Holy Bible is to be interpreted according to how you feel about what it's saying and obedience to it relies on whether you agree with it or not.
10) You have to get more education in order to be a fulfilled as a human being, no matter how useless what you study is.
11) The sexes are equal to each other, and each is just as capable of doing anything as the other.
12) White people and/or males are responsible for most of the bad things that happen in the world today.
13) Diversity of people is always a good thing.
14) Diversity of thought is never a good thing.
15) Emotions are much more important than the logical reality of any situation.
16) Any problem can be solved if you hand it over to federal agencies, or the Universities for examination along with lots and lots of money to "study" the issue.
In the mind of the "statists" or the "thought tyrants" there is no debate to be had with any of these issues. These are all "settled science".
In My Humble Opinion.....
