George Carlin -a fallen hero

You want to talk about fallen hero’s, well I got one for you. George Carlin. I’m pretty sure he never killed anyone in his life. Might not have rescued any burning babies from buildings. But a hero to me is someone who speaks the goddamn Shit, Piss, Fuck, Cunt, Cocksucking, Motherfucking, and Tits truth. I’ve always thought the best comedians are the best because they’re telling us the truth that hurts. It’s the truth that’s too much in your face that most times it would get you down but they have a way of putting that all the hurt comes out in laughter. Now, I know that wasn’t what he spoke of all the time, alot of times he spoke of normal day stuff that made you laugh like things you never see (example: you never see a man take a shit while running at full speed). But he was anti-authoritarian, which is how I define myself. And it’s not a choice for me either. It’s the only way. I have not, can not, and will not ever be told what to do without first agreeing with it for myself. You can’t be a fuckin’ robot your whole life, you can’t be a fuckin’ slave and all of us are slaves. We are not free. If we were free, don’t go to work tomorrow. Leave work right now. Yeah right. Cause it’s not a bull whip that will get you anymore it’s something else.

`Anti-Authoritarian’

“I’ve always been sort of anti-authoritarian and I really don’t like arbitrary rules and regulations that are essentially designed to get people in the habit of conforming,” Carlin said in a National Public Radio interview on Nov. 1, 2004.

Back to the point. One Carlin quote that jumped into my head right now is about how republicans (during the Regan era, but still holds true to today) want to keep the streets clean of street crimanals provided that street isn’t wall street. His idea on church: tax them, tax these mother fuckers, hell the land tax alone of the catholic church would wipe out the national debt. I like his take on the 10 commandments. He boiled them down to 2 and then added one himself.

“Thou shall not kill unless somebody believes in something that you don’t” and “Thou shall be honest and faithful” Moses could have put them in his pocket and read it off to the people and it wouldn’t have been so hypocritical to faith. But let’s add in one more commandment “Keep they religion to thyself”

I think this is the saddest I’ve been over the death of a celebrity. I know I really shouldn’t be. Death is death. It’s not the end of the story but the end of the chapter. But what a good goddamn chapter.

People he could do without: People with small teeth and large gums. Old guys named skip. Guys with a lot of pins on their hats. A pimp who drives a Toyota Corolla. A boy scout master who owns a dildo shop. A nun with a bull whip and a bottle of Gin.

He was also the first to say certain words in a certain order, here it is: “As soon as a chop my dick off, I’m gonna stick this red hot poker in my ass”. First one. No one else in the history of the world ever thought to put those words together in that order. He had a beautiful take on words.

I love words. I thank you for hearing my words.
I want to tell you something about words that I think is important.
They're my work, they're my play, they're my passion.
Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid.
then we assign a word to a thought and we're stuck with that word for
that thought, so be careful with words. I like to think that the same
words that hurt can heal, it is a matter of how you pick them.

Fuck God, Worship the sun. As he put it, unlike the sun I can’t see gods.

I just noticed that he died at 5:55. News broke about it on the 23rd of June. Is this an Illuminati conspiracy?



what seems to be

May 28, 2008 | Filed Under Pop, g'mornin', quotes | 3 Comments 

I’m currently reading up on wars.  I read about wwI yesterday and today I’m on the Napoleonic Wars, which seem to be the actual first ww.  Wikipedia says that it was from 1803-1815 and it seemed to have involved just about every European nation, except the always neutral Switzerland (why is that, is cause they are the bankers?), and a brief time we intervened against the UK.  Of course instead of saying the US got into the Napoleonic War, we just started a different war the war of 1812.  But it seemed all due to the Napoleonic Wars.  UK stopped us from trading with France during the war which the US thought we should have freely been able to, so we declared war on the UK for fucking with us.  Wikipedia also claims the war of 1812 was fought for other reasons; like the UK duping the US sailors into fighting for the UK against France and also the UK giving Native Americans military support against US expansion.

Now, if the Napoleonic Wars was the Masons attempt at a United Europe then it seems the UK were the good guys against that and also realized the US was also a scheme for the Masons to expand on that continent and that is why they supplied the Native Americans with Military power.  It was all the same war, I guess in a sense it’s always been the same war.  We can give it as many different names as we want but all in all for the past “I don’t know how many” years, the2 sides have always been the same, just different chess pieces.  There you go:
The chess board and pieces keep changing but the player’s behind the pieces stay the same.

that’s how I’m ending this blog.



From Illuminatus! Appendix Teth

Appendix Teth
Hagbard’s Booklet

    Every ideology is a mental murder, a reduction of dynamic living processes to static classifications, and every classification is a Damnation, just as every inclusion is an exclusion. In a busy, buzzing universe where no two snowflakes are identical, and no two trees are identical, and no two people are identical –and, indeed, the smallest subatomic particle, we are assured, is not even identical with itself from one microsecond to the next– every card-index system is a self-delusion. “Or, to put it more charitably,”as Nietzsche says, “we are all better artist than we realize.”

It is easy to see that the label “Jew” was a Damnation in Nazi Germany, but actually the label “Jew” is a Damnation anywhere, even where anti-Semitism does not exist. “He is a Jew,” He is a doctor,” and he is a poet” mea, to the card-indexing center of the cortex, that my experience with him will be like my experience with other Jews, other doctors, and other poets. Thus, individuality is ignored when identity is asserted.

At a party or any place where strangers meet, watch this mechanism in action. Behind the friendly overtures there is wariness each person fishes for the label that will identify and Damn the other. Finally, it is revealed: “Oh, he’s an advertising copywriter,” “Oh, he’s an engine-lathe operator.” Both parties relax, for now they know how to behave, what roles to play in the game. Ninety-nine percent of each has been Damned; the other is reacting to the 1 percent that has been labeled by the card-index machine.

I thought this bit would be nice to add. This is a few pages later and kinda fits in with what Allison was talking about yesterday about the media.

    A monopoly on the means of communication may define a ruling elite more precisely than the celebrated Marxian formula of “monopoly on the means of production.” Since man extends his nervous system through channels of communication like the written word, the telephone, radio, etc,. he who controls these media controls part of the nervous system of every member of society. The contents of these media become part of the contents of every individual’s brain.

Thus, in pre-literate societies taboos on the spoken word are more numerous and more Draconic than at any more complex level of social organization. with the invention of written speech –hieroglyphic, ideographic, or alphabetical –the taboos are shifted to this medium; there is less concern with what people say and more concern with what they write. (Some of the first societies to achieve literacy, such as Egypt and the Mayan culture of ancient Mexico, evidently kept a knowledge of their hieroglyphs a religious secret which only the higher order of the priestly and royal families were allowed to share.) The same process repeats endlessly: Each step forward in the technology of communication is more heavily tabooed than the earlier steps. Thus, in America today (post-Lenny Bruce), one seldom hears of convictions for spoken blasphemy or obscenity; prosecution of books still continues, but higher courts increasingly interpret the laws in a liberal fashion, and most writers feel fairly confident that they can publish virtually anything; movies are growing almost as desacralized as books, although the fight is still heated in this area; television, the newest medium remains encased in neolithic taboo. (When the TV pundits committed lese mejeste after an address by the then Dominant Male, a certain Richard Nixon, one of his lieutenants quickly informed them they had overstepped, and the whole tribe-except for the dissident minority-cheered for the reassertion of tradition.) When a more efficient medium arrives, the taboos on television will decrease.



Appendix Lamed- The Tactics of Magick

May 22, 2008 | Filed Under quotes | Leave a Comment 

taken from the Appendix of Illuminatus! Trilogy

   The human brain evidently operates on some variation of the famous principle enunciated in The Hunting of the Snark: “What I tell you three times is true.”

- Norbert Weiner, Cybernetics

The most important idea in the Book of Sacred Magic of Abra-Melin the Mage is the simple-looking formula “Invoke often.”
The most successful form of treatment for so-called mental disorders, the Behavior Therapy of Pavlov, Skinner, Wolpe, et al., could well be summarized in two similar words: “Reinforce often.”  (”Reinforcement,” for all practical purposes, means the same as the layman’s term “reward.” the essence of Behavior Therapy is rewarding desired behavior; the behavior “as if by magic” begins to occur more and more often as the rewards continue.)

    Advertising, as everybody knows, is based on the axiom “Repeat often.”
Those who think they are ‘materialists’ and think that ‘materialism’ requires them to deny all facts which do not square with their definition of “matter” are loath to admit the well-documented and extensive list of individuals who have been cured of serious maladies by that very vulgar and absurd form of magick known as Christian Science.  Nonetheless, the reader who wants to understand this classic work of immortal literature will have to analyze its deepest meanings, guided by an awareness that there is no essential difference between magick, Behavior Therapy, advertising, and Christian Science.  All of them can be condensed in Abra-Melin’s simple “Invoke often.”

The opposite and reciprocal of “Invoke often” is “Banish often.”
The magician wishing for a manifestation of Pan will not only invoke Pan directly and verbally, create Panlike conditions in his temple, reinforce Pan associations in every gesture and every article of furniture, use the colors and perfumes associated with Pan, etc.; he will also banish other gods verbally, banish them by removing their associated furnitures and colors and perfumes, and banish them in every other way.  The Behavior Therapist calls this “negative reinforcement,” and in treating a patient who is afraid of elevators he will not only reinforce (reward) every instance in which the patient rides an elevator without terror, but will also negatively reinforce (punish) each indication of terror shown by the patient.  The Christian Scientist, of course, uses a mantra or spell which oth reinforces health and negatively reinforces (banishes) illness.  Similarly, a commercial not only motivates the listener toward the sponsor’s product but discourages interest in all “false gods” by subsuming them under the rubric of the despised and contemptible Brand X.



Illuminatus! quotes

I’m quite the blogger today.

You’ll like this jeff. I’m gonna take a while to type out a passage from the book inside the book. Hagbard Celine wrote a book called Never Whistle While You’re Pissing:

DEFINITIONS AND DISTINCTIONS

FREE MARKET: that condition of society in which all economic transactions result from voluntary choice without coercion.

THE STATE: That institution which interferes with the Free Market through the direct exercise of coercion or the granting of privileges (back by coercion)

TAX: That form of coercion or interference with the Free Market in which the State collects tribute (the tax), allowing it to hire armed forces to practice coercion in defense of privilege, and also to engage in such wars, adventures, experiments, “reforms,” etc., as it pleases, not at its own cost, but at the cost of “it’s” subjects

PRIVILEGE: From the Latin privi, private, and lege, law. An advantage granted by the State and protected by its powers of coercion. A law for private benefit.

USURY: That form of privilege or interference with the Free Market in which one State-supported group monopolizes the coinage and thereby takes tribute (interest), direct or indirect, on all or most economic transactions.

LANDLORDISM: That form of privilege or interference with the Free Market in which one State-supported group “owns” the land and thereby takes tribute (rent) from those who live, work, or produce on the land.

TARIFF: That form of privilege or interference with the Free Market in which commodities produced outside the State are not allowed to compete equally with those produced inside the State.

CAPITALISM: That organization of society, incorporating elements of tax, usury, landlordism, and tariff, which thus denies the Free Market while pretending to exemplify it.

CONSERVATISM: That school of capitalist philosophy which claims allegiance to the Free Market while actually supporting usury, landlordism, tariff and sometimes taxations.

LIBERALISM: That school of capitalist philosophy which attempts to correct the injustices of capitalism by adding new laws to the existing laws. Each time conservatives pass a law creating privilege, liberals pass another law modifying privilege, leading conservatives to pass a more subtle law recreating privilege, etc., until “everything not forbidden is compulsory” and “everything not compulsory is forbidden.”

SOCIALISM: The attempted abolition of all privilege by restoring power entirely to the coercive agent behind privilege, the State, thereby converting capitalist oligarchy into Statist monopoly. Whitewashing a wall by painting it black.

ANARCHISM: That organization of society in which the Free Market operates freely, without taxes, usury, landlordism, tariffs, or other forms of coercion or privilege. RIGHT ANARCHISTS predict that in the Free Market people would voluntarily choose to compete more often than to cooperate. LEFT ANARCHISTS predict that in the Free Market people would voluntarily choose to cooperate more often than to compete.

 

By these definitions I would be a Left Anarchist.
