“It is not the first time that the feelings (and symbols) of Muslims have been attacked – which confirms that what is happening is not a spontaneous act or that of mindless individual actions – but rather an aggressive, racist, organized approach that belittles and offends the feelings of all Muslims all over the whole world!”
Modern Russians are living in a Western economic system, following a Western religion and expressing a Western form of fascism – but the ‘liberalism’ Russia is opposing today was developed in the West between 1917-1991! A similar argument can be made for the ‘decadence’ associated with the ‘Weimar Republic’ (1918-1933) – a process which involved a ‘mirroring’ within German society of the apparent ‘freedom’ perceived as existing in the USSR! Russia has been historically responsible for most of the ills it has been suffering since betraying its own Socialist Revolution in 1991! Spouting fascist rhetoric and threatening warfare is the behaviour of the far-right – and makes Russia no better than the Neo-Nazi Ukraine it is opposing!
An intuitive (collective) grasp does not constitute a material consensus. Of course, the work of Marx and that of the Bourgeois intellectuals featured above does intersect. Marx, however, must be ‘ignored’ because his method (if pursued to its logical conclusion) – not only exposes the inverted nature of religion – but also the inverted nature of the entirety of Bourgeois society (including those intellectuals who expose religion – but do not expose the predatory capitalism it creates and they rely on) because such an admittance would effectively end Bourgeois existence and see it subsumed within a Socialist Revolution!
The separation of the “spirit of the Gospel” from the “letter of the Gospel” is an irreligious act. A state which makes the Gospel speak in the language of politics – that is, in another language than that of the Holy Ghost – commits sacrilege, if not in human eyes, then in the eyes of its own religion. The state which acknowledges Christianity as its supreme criterion, and the Bible as its Charter, must be confronted with the words of Holy Scripture, for every word of Scripture is holy. This state, as well as the human rubbish on which it is based, is caught in a painful contradiction that is insoluble from the standpoint of religious consciousness when it is referred to those sayings of the Gospel with which it “not only does not comply, but cannot possibly comply, if it does not want to dissolve itself completely as a state.” And why does it not want to dissolve itself completely? The state itself cannot give an answer either to itself or to others. In its own consciousness, the official Christian state is an imperative, the realization of which is unattainable, the state can assert the reality of its existence only by lying to itself, and therefore always remains in its own eyes an object of doubt, an unreliable, problematic object. Criticism is, therefore, fully justified in forcing the state that relies on the Bible into a mental derangement in which it no longer knows whether it is an illusion or a reality, and in which the infamy of its secular aims, for which religion serves as a cloak, comes into insoluble conflict with the sincerity of its religious consciousness, for which religion appears as the aim of the world. This state can only save itself from its inner torment if it becomes the police agent of the Catholic Church. In relation to the church, which declares the secular power to be its servant, the state is powerless, the secular power which claims to be the rule of the religious spirit is powerless.
This is an interesting point that follows on from the allegation that Griffin is ‘gay’ and has been in an ‘on’ and ‘off’ again relationship with his protégé – Mark Collett – over the years! This is not surprising as he likes to play ‘dress-up’ and run at passers-by with his y-fronts pulled over his trousers – wearing a cape and swinging a replica sword blessed by a dead saint – living in a Priory that only exists within the confines of Griffin’s imagination! Before we jump to conclusions – perhaps we should check that ‘Brother Jim Dowson’ is a real person!
This descent into pseudo-religiosity is all part of the delusional world the political far-right inhabits! It is no wonder that Griffin is so wide of the Hitlerite mark that he is nolonger considered part of the legitimate conventional far-right movement in the UK – which is now led by his protégé – Mark Collett (a fascist who was once featured in glossy Sunday supplements when New Labour was in power). A pursual of this Templar website while demonstrate the ‘dishonesty’ hallmark that defines the thinking of the contemporary far-right! This Hitlerite ‘lying’ is presented through the camouflage of ‘paradox’ and ‘contradiction’. Below is an obviously misleading statement DENYING that this outfit is involved in politics – followed by obvious far-right posts made on the group’s Telegram Channel – which has Griffin’s name and image liberally dotted throughout:
