Far-Right Hypocrisy and [2024] Boots Xmas Advert! (30.11.2024)

30/11/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

The typical (Christian) Monastic Rule states that on the day of the birth of Jesus Christ (Christmas Day), the monks, nuns and lay-observants (oblates), are solemn, humble, conscientious, profoundly aware, and committed to the structures of the Rule they follow. The interesting thing, however, is that the day of Christ’s birth is no more – and no less – significant than any other of the 364 days that exist throughout the year within the monastic cycle. Yes – various holy days (including Christmas Day) attract specific sermons and rituals – but these are inserted into the general daily framework of the Monastic Rule itself. Extra-food and extra-drink (outside of that already permitted by the Rule) is not allowed. A break from the daily round of monastic duty (outside the Rule) is not allowed. Finally, as the monastics and lay-observants own “nothing” (not even their robes) – there is never any giving of gifts (private property is not permitted under the Rule).

Ed Sheeran said last week that he was not asked for permission to re-use his vocals from when he sang on Band Aid 30 in 2014 and that he would have "respectfully" declined the request.

RTE: Deluded Geldof At It Again! (25.11.2024)

25/11/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

The resulting Single and Pop Music Events raised around £10 million – which is nothing but a tiny drop in the ocean when it comes to the economic repairing of an exploited Continent! By the time all the expenses were met, aid on the ground was reduced to a few mealy-sacks given-out in-front of a BBC film crew. Starving Black children were filmed – whilst a musical score was superimposed over their suffering – all designed to emotionally manipulate viewers (sat in their comfortable Western homes) to donate money over the telephone. Adult Africans were depicted as being incapable of solving their own problems, or possessing the ability to exercise self-determination. During this time, Whilst the White West collectively deluded itself, Black athletes competing on the world stage would refuse to shake-hands with their White colleagues – or be filmed together in a bid to avoid this trap. It would seem that in the intervening 40-years, Bob Geldof has failed to realise what it took Ed Sheeran to learn in just ten.

British Judah P. Benjamin [1811-1884] – “Jewish” Confederate Attorney General! (16.11.2024)

16/11/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Many who knew Judah, however, have stated that his legal arguments and his personal views were two different things. In reality, Judah, his family, and his broader community in the South were generally in favour of slave-ownership. He believed that slaves were “property” and that a government had no right to interfere in the ownership of property. Particularly a “property” guaranteed in the 1776 Constitution. He thought that freeing slaves was impractical because this population had no idea of how to survive as free-functioning individuals. Such a transition, if it could happen at all, would take a very long time involving preparation. For those who supported slavery, these attitudes were common amongst the “White” community. Another justifying argument involved the idea that Biblical texts justified the enslavement of Africans – with slavery being god’s will. In 1862, Judah P. Benjamin was appointed Confederate Secretary of State, and he pursued the foreign policy of attempting to pursued Great Britain and France to recognise the Confederacy. In 1864, Confederate General Patrick Cleburne (of the Army of Tennessee) suggested that all the slaves in the South should be freed and immediately armed – to form “Black” Regiments in the Confederate Army. Jeferson Davis vettoed this idea (even though Judah P. Benjamin had been discussing this since 1863).

Brigadier General P. G. T. Beauregard: How a “Mixed-Race” Confederate General Defeated the North! (14.11.2024)

Indeed, many of his aunts and uncles were White people who had inter-married with Black, Mexican, and Native American partners. Indeed, whilst serving in the US Army prior to the war – P. G. T. Beauregard – his advancement was blighted by the fact that the US Military Authorities purposely discriminated against him on the grounds that he was “Not Trustworthy” – as he was the product of a family that deliberately “Race-Mixed”. This judgement kept him out of West Point as a Teacher (he had trained there in his youth – but was not permitted to pursue a substantive career in that institute) – until he was mistakenly posted as an “Instructor” at this College of Officer-Training in the US during 1861 (just prior to the breakout of hostilities). His appointment lasted just one-day until the mistake was realised by a Union pen-pusher. P. G. T. Beauregard was immediately removed on the grounds that the US does not allow any but “pure-raced” individuals exercising direct influence over the developing generations of US Military Officers. Indeed, the US Authorities applied this judgement by continuously referring to P. G. T. Beauregard as a “Creole” – implying that he was psychologically and physically “inferior” due to “race-mixing”.

Email: Trump is Back – the “Devil in the Whitehouse”! (6.11.2024)

This is when I realised the left is hideously compromised across the Western world. On one such March, we arrived in a large group (whilst never being fully accepted into it) carrying our Red Flag flying at Trafalgar Square (Central London) – and met a young woman wearing a striking headscarf (there was something about his woman that attracted us – usually we do not engage random approaches). This lady treated us as Comrades – and gave us a leaflet about the injustices suffered by the (Maoist) Workers’ Institute by the Tory government! Something good came out of all of this – but not what we wanted or intended.

London: City Road [EC1V 2NR] – Shoreditch Side-Street “Not a Toilet”! (5.11.2024)

05/11/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

After being in the vicinity of Moorfields Eye Hospital (City Road – Shoreditch – East Central London), we had just visited a new Chinese Supermarket [Fu Lai], we stumbled upon a very strange side-street which cannot be fenced-off because it is publicly accessible. We had seen this place years ago – but we did not record it at the time. Apparently, the sign on either side of this narrow in-dent states that the area is NOT a “Public Toilet”! How odd! This is a posh place full of new high-rise (and incredibly expensive) flats strictly for the elite. As there are no public houses of clubs – it is difficult to understand just why it is that the local population would use this side-street as a toilet. It seems to me that this might be a fake landmark designed to attract bemused tourists and incredulous locals. Perhaps an urban myth.
