How the Bourgeois (Capitalist) State Conditions and Controls Young People! (14.2.2023) 

The minds and attitudes of the young people today are the product of the policies the Bourgeoise State has enacted. In other words, the older generation has protected the Bourgeois (capitalist) State by ensuring that the younger generations are conditioned to think in a way that sees middle of the way liberal democracy as being the only acceptable way for society to exist, and the only expression of reality that keeps non-White populations ‘happy’. This is because Black and Asian groups have ceased to support the overthrow of predatory capitalism (through a Marxist-Leninist Revolution), and now seek to gain their own fair share of the ‘profit’ gained from the historical and existential exploitation of the working-class! The irony is two-fold. Firstly, the greater percentage of this profit has been historically gained through the exploitation of the White proletariat – and as the ‘White’ population serves as the majority of the population throughout Europe and the US – this Black and Asian policy is striving to acquire a share of capitalist profit it has not earned (the millions of African slaves who built America through the White enforced use of their ‘free’ labour – were not part of the proletariat – with most being agricultural workers existing in serf-like ‘feudalistic’ conditions). Secondly, this Black and Asian policy is supporting the capitalist division of labour which gives rise to the competitive forces that are the basis of all forms of racism (forces expertly exploited by Henry Ford in his US automobile factory, for example). Whilst supporting capitalism, this Black and Asian policy supports the very theoretical basis of the ‘racism’ that its various campaign groups strive to oppose. 

China: History Classic (Shujing) and the Concept of ‘Time’! (22.9.2022)

Seldom does the West Treat non-Westerners with respect. Since 1945 and the rise of US dominance, this anti-intellectual approach has become far more prevalent, powerful and normalised! Racism is an ever threatening ogre lurking in the darkness – but in this short extract (in 1971) – Clae Williams ‘revitalises’ the ground breaking translation work of James Legge, who began the translation of the Chinese ‘Five Classic’ texts in the mid to late 1800s! Although both cultures (the West and East) are still learning about one another, Legge was able to ‘see beyond’ his own socio-economic and cultural conditioning, and ‘see into’ or profoundly ‘glimpse’ how the ancient Chinese people developed a distinct cultural view of the world! The following extract is an ‘Introduction’ written by the American ‘Clae Williams’ in 1969, his modernisation of the work of James Legge, with much of its content deriving from the ample notes left behind in the James Legge Library. The ‘Shujing’ (書經) or ‘Document Classic’ is often referred to in China as the ‘Book of History’ as the ‘Documents’ concerned are ‘Historical’ in nature recording Chinese history from around 2205 – 771 BCE. It is an interesting attempt by non-Chinese people to contextualise the Chinese cultural perception of the world!

Plotinus: The Concept of ‘Time’ Reconsidered! (21.9.2022)

The Christians then further added to this confusion (entirely of their own making) by superimposing the Germanic term ‘Soul’ over their misinterpretation of the Greek philosophical term ‘Psyche’! Plotinus (and most genuine Greek philosophers) never used or even knew of the Christian conflation of ‘Psyche-Soul’. Certainly, Plotinus NEVER used the Christian term ‘Soul’, but he did continuously use the Greek philosophical term ‘Psyche’, which refers to the ‘breath of life’, ‘the animating principle of existence’ – or that ‘spark’ which sets in motion all the conditions that grant psychological (thought) and physical (existence)! Plato’s 4th Century BCE text entitled ‘Definitions’ a manual of philosophical terms (translated by DS Hutchinson, 1996) used within his ‘Academy’ School of Philosophical Study – defines the Greek term ‘Psyche’ to mean the following:

a) That which moves itself.

b) The cause of vital processes in living creatures.

I would argue that the Greek term ‘Psyche’ implies so much more than the narrow Christian term ‘Soul’, and even if there are elements of the Greek ‘Psyche’ which overlap with the Christian ‘Soul’ – this in no way validates (or accepts) the Christian doctrine of being true anymore than it invalidates the Greek philosophical message!

Orthodoxy and Ukraine! (19.4.2022)

This autocephalous, US backed Ukrainian church has become the de facto church of the Ukrainian state and it should come as no surprise that it has been showing its fascist credentials from the very beginning.  Churches have been confiscated from the legitimate church, ‘priests’ have led their support to the Nazi regiments, real worshippers intimidated (intimidation assisted by Eastern Rite Catholics), churches firebombed, clergy threatened (faeces thrown through the window of a priest’s house is a lovely Nazi touch). It has been spectacularly unsuccessful at recruiting people away from the canonical church, though there has been some success in the West of the country.  This US backed church is big on ecumenicism and works happily with the Catholics.  In the West it is viewed as legitimate by the ignorant and support for it is growing.  Sadly, the Patriarchate of Alexandria also caved in and recognised it.  This has led to massive problems throughout Africa with defections of clergy from Alexandria to Moscow (the only other patriarchate in the area) by priests who refuse to recognise the fascist church.  These priests are being fined and persecuted, but they know the truth.
