Resist the Beautiful Hell
The Roman: In Omnia Paratus"...will not be filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered. My life is my own. I will retain the ancient traditions of my faith, race, and culture, my individuality and particulars, and try as any man whose reputation is to endure must, to make the world relevant to principles and ideals rather than to accept the vague and increasingly shallow values of this world."
Sardonic, terse, intense; in slow, simmering anger The Roman vows unceasing defiance to the makers of treason and revolution and sounds the tocsin that the nation must now accept that it lives on an intellectual battlefield from which there can be only one victor.
Through the control of information at all levels the world is imposing on American Society mind control, thought transfer, psychological torture, and brainwashing, procedures that authoritarian governments make use of in either open or closed societies.
Whether it is dark, grey, and authoritarian as described by George Orwell or voluntary and submissive as proscribed by Aldus Huxley, in the end, the choice is to live free or as slaves.For The Roman there is no choice.
The peace of the cell, the shackle, and the grave is no peace at all.
Therefore, the role of every individual American is to resist an increasingly oppressing society, the ‘prison in the open’ that crushes independent spirits slowly and insidiously with the help of relentless, propagandizing 'experts,' talking heads, educators and 'facilitators' who debase and continually subvert Christian populations to ever lower societal, moral, and cultural standards.
The more dumbed-down citizens become the more readily they believe every calculated misinformation.
Separate a people from their history and they are more easily turned. The bureaucrats and administrators in public education have done exactly that.
The candidacy of Barack Hussein Obama is a prime example of just how effective these methods have been. An informed electorate, in full possession of its identity as Americans could not have supported an individual whose core values are so far removed from the national character of America.
Today, adherence to the Principles of our Founders is both reactionary and counter-revolutionary.
The Revolution in America, as put forth by a handful of well placed subversives like William Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn supported by a two party, one idea mockery of Republican government, has succeeded.
It remains to be seen what will ascend from the ashes. We will either caw with crows and shriek with buzzards for eternity, or we can bring back the eagles and songbirds.
Hidden microphones and intrusive cameras record activity and conversation and banks of computers store, monitor, and analyze everything according to what you buy, read, consume, and do or not do. Surveillance is constant. Big Brother is everywhere, even in your head.
Information is processed and produced for the masses but it is intended to be consumed by individuals. All of it is personal.
News and information appeals first to the individual’s emotions: Need, greed, status or non-status, by use of personal identifiers that define self-image and self-worth, motivate and shape personality and a once free people are filed, stamped, indexed, and numbered.
In an abundant society Greed comes before Need because everyone but the stupid or insane has food, shelter, and a place to procreate. Keep the dogs hungry and they will fight over the smallest bone.
Create classes of victims, preach resentment, and re-classify opportunity into opportunism and they will scrap and scrape and bow for crumbs.
Today, information of all types is language impoverished, increasingly devoid of complex ideas and deceptive of its true purposes - it is the socialist/utilitarian voice of revolution that hawks veiled euphemisms and existentialist nonsense in place of tried and true paradigms of rights AND responsibilities, right AND wrong, justice, and Biblical Truth vs the Lie of Satan.
Enslavement of the heart, mind, and soul will follow those who purchase these perversions and make them their own.
It is tempting to give in and settle for crumbs and a quiet life in the beautiful hell.Have none of it. Refuse to cooperate. Resist whenever possible.
When not possible to resist openly, retreat into anonymity, raise your families, find ways to prosper and live to fight another day.
But fight. Never quit and never cease to be vigilant against these forces that every minute of every day will try to own you and MORTGAGE your Posterity for eternity. We are witness today of 'bailout' stratagems that will ultimately separate your children and grandchildren from their national inheritance. Full of hubris, this is the blatant, arrogant application of Hegelian doctrine: those that caused the problems have the solutions to the very catastrophes they have created.
Escape the temptation accept it or to give in.
Work unceasingly to unmask the powers that run the 'Village' in this dramatic struggle, which is as old as man's deception in the Garden.Remember, Adam ate the forbidden fruit willingly, notwithstanding the fact that his trusted soul mate offered it to him after her own deception. Adam trusted fallible 'man' (Eve) forsaking infallible God the Father.
Learn to express yourself with clarity of thought. Be patient with ideas, balanced in your assessments, and suspect all forms of communication that do not operate in this way for deceivers are manipulators of all forms of communication: "By their fruit ye shall Know them…"
Take note of the inherent character of the players - the heroes, villains, and bystanders and in the full motivation of their actions. Then you will unmask them and know them for who and what they are.
Tell the truth.
Tell it, though the heavens may fall.

Proletarian Literature
Proletarian Literature in America (© John Puzzo, September 2003; 2005;2008)
Jonathan Swift: 'When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this infallible sign: that all the dunces are in confederacy against him.'
From: proletariat: (‘proletariat’ is a European term, as is capitalism…)
Originally, ‘proletarii,’ “The lowest class of ancient Roman citizens; destitute of property, they contributed nothing to society but their ‘proles’ – offspring. Ineligible even for the Army due to their low station, they were useful only as laborers and breeders of more laborers.
Marx co-opted this ancient term to mean, the laboring class, especially: the class of industrial workers who lack their own means of production and hence must sell their labor to live.
Marxists created the new semantic - ‘dialectical materialism,’ as an endless argument to redefine human life in the materialist terms of class struggle of ‘have vs. have not.’ This semantic is meant by Marxists to be an applied concept requiring thought and action:
Divide, separate, and polarize the ‘new proletariat’ according to class, age, gender, race, etc., and apply the Marxian solution.
Proletarian Literature (PL) was at the height of its influence in the 1930’s, especially in the USA. Encouraged by the Soviet subversion of the arts, similar writing was being done in the USSR, Britain, France, Germany, Japan, Italy, India, China and elsewhere.
In full triumphant maturity in the 21st Century, PL is the cultural Marxism of the Frankfurt School (The Frankfurt School is a school of neo-Marxist critical theory, social research, and philosophy.) that carries the full force of law (hate crimes = thought crimes where the expression of language is controlled) in every aspect of Western culture, but especially in America where its influence and power, except as it has been a most effective tool of subversion, defies logic. The development of 'critical theory' has led to what we now know as politically correct language, thought and behavior, hate crimes (Orwell called them thought crimes), and the politics of devisiveness (class warfare) and giving life to the Marxist concept of dialectical materialism.
Proletarian literature uses emotion to disarm logic and reason to sell the idea that those without influence are victims but where labor organizers, revolutionaries, socialists, and ultimately the Communist Party stand by as the last best hope of humanity against exploitation.
Critics and reviewers have dealt harshly with authors who showed skepticism of the proletarian Utopia. George Orwell - the nemesis, specter, and eternal bogeyman haunting the communist conspiracy - did not enjoy universal acceptance in the Publishing industry, the great popularity of his books notwithstanding:
"...NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR was published during the Cold War on June 8, 1949, and the book created bitter political controversy. Communist reviewers violently attacked the book.
These attacks made Orwell feel that he must have struck home. When the Communist press called him “…maggot, octopus, hyena and swine…” he wryly told David Astor: “…they seem to be very fond of animals.”
Truth as a concept in literature has devolved into an exercise in not what is truth….but ‘where’ is truth and the truth known as ‘Un-truth.’
What is ‘1984’ if it is not a prophetic glimpse of today?
“…a haunting and terrifying vision of what the world has become before the end of the 20th Century…a world held in the grip of fear …Absolute conformity…continuous and complete surveillance where privacy is forbidden …organized hatred…thought crimes are real…perpetual war waged for perpetual victory…pleasure is warped…language and history systematically destroyed…and where ignorance is strength…slavery is freedom…and where love is a crime…“A world of Secret dreams and dangerous reality…“A furtive world where nothing is as it seems…room 101, where torture and murder is carried out in the Ministry of Love and the Ministry of truth deals in ‘un-truth’…” (Film Promo for ‘1984,’ the film, British release.)
American Proletarian Literature is a bitter, rebellious, and tormented indictment of the American Dream. Sentimental, tragic, doomed, and fatalistic, PL is most effective when it presents human existence in American society as predatory and destructive, which PL writers view as the result of an imbalance in social power structures, not in the shortcomings of personal responsibility.
Proletarian Literature anticipates the existential angst of writer’s in post WW II America. PL writers prepared the soil for the anti-hero philosophies of the “GOD IS DEAD” universe, where life is meaningless and anxiety the only reasonable response to it; where moral relativism would supplant the “virtuous life” advocated by Christ and in the literature inspired by the pre-eminent, Greek philosopher, Socrates. Proletarian authors would replace the entire perspective of Western Civilization with the never ending ‘dialectical materialist’ finger-pointing of “have” vs. “have not.”
In this atmosphere, PL authors were free and unrestrained to present evil in complex, sometimes sympathetic characters whose motivations may not be inherently evil and sometimes even good, but nonetheless do bad things.
In this manner, PL provides a medium for Goethian evil: the evil that produces ‘good. The mind of every literary (movie) consumer is a garden for this weed and emotion is the fertilizer.
The heroes/antiheroes of PL are habitually dull, possessed of ambiguous morals, are rarely persons of rank and achievement (those of rank and achievement do not fare well in PL), and they are routinely animated by their own inferior social status and personal resentments – an ample arena for presenting troubling psychological conflict and awkward settings, as in Steinbeck’s ‘Of Mice and Men,’ where both ‘protagonists’ – it is hard to call them heroes – commit murder.
PL is the exaltation of ‘commonness’ over that of the ‘common man’ as he is epitomized in the earlier writing of Walt Whitman, Horatio Alger and in all of the biographies of the great and near great throughout history.
Arthur Miller, in, ‘Death of a Salesman,’ trashed the ‘common man’ in his character, Willy Loman. Loman was a salesman. He produced nothing (unlike the PL masses that only have their labor to offer). The fruits of his labor - and that of every other American salesman - were hopes and dreams. They produced sales - and sales filled orders and filling orders emptied inventories, meaning the masses worked. The salesman was the point man for American industry, for American Progress, and for food on the table. For Arthur Miller, though, Willie Loman the salesman was the ultimate loser.
In the field of PL music, folksingers Pete Seeger and fellow veteran communist Woody Guthrie wrote about Joe Hill and the Wobblies and penned lyrics to such socialist anthems as “This land is my Land.”
Because of its appeal to youth and its entertainment value at mass meetings, protest gatherings and in ‘movement-building’ (you can always buy the record and take the movement with you) propaganda music provided a disarming entree into the world of socialism. Woody Guthrie the communist was a pacifist until WW II, when ‘Mother Russia’ was threatened by Germany. Woody joined the Merchant Marine.
PL is the application of Marx’s revolutionary concepts to literature, science, history, sociology, psychology and the educational establishment. PL musicians became the troubadours of socialism, minstrels of socialist convention who found culpability for the human condition everywhere outside of the socialist camp but especially in America, where, for them, the uniquely American reality of opportunity became “opportunism” and the only good government meant enough red tape to strangle it.
For PL writers, musicians, performers, actors, and others in the creative arts, WW II was ‘the good war’ because FASCISM had to be defeated. COMMUNISM, however, the other side of the socialist coin, has produced the deaths of ten times as many people as National Socialism. Some form of it exists today in most Western Nations but without the protest songs that front anti-communist ‘peace movements.’

Totalitarian Progress: Road To Perdition of the "isms."
Level I.
Rule of the “isms” and their respective symbols.
· Socialism – Handshake
· Nazism – Swastika
· Facism - Fasci
· Communism -Hammer and Sickle
Fear, Greed, and indifference: A recipe for manipulation, makes this 'isms' possible.
When corruption has no name and no face, it is overlooked.
Small groups of ‘energetic,’ motivated people make a difference in the direction of major social forces – it’s the only thing that ever has.
Where the audience is an active participant in it’s own deception and manipulation there are expectations of that a charismatic presence will lead them out of their troubles. What they get is a loss of control over its own destiny.
The most effective rhetoric is simple, passionate, and repetitive. It works equally well through mass appeal or one on one: Mesmer perfected the technique so well a movement was named after him.
Level II.
Police Power, State Terrorism:
A police state produces mass fear and the fear is open, the tactics are open with demonstrations of force and power, as in Waco, Texas and Ruby Ridge, Idaho under the Clington Administration. The employment of such operatiosnagainst civilians produce an undercurrent of emotion that moves from observation to fear to terror in the mind which personalizes the connection, creating an overpowering sense of dread. This is internalized by the masses and the individual.
The Media: The Main Stream Media is produced for the masses but consumed by individuals. It is the main source of instruction to the masses on what to believe, how to act, and what to consume including the consumption of information.
