Bread, Circuses, Ditches, and Machine Guns

Democracy is not a Blessing

I seem to be writing a lot today.

I wanted to mention something God showed me last night. For years–since before pundits started saying it–I’ve been saying the Internet, TV, and the telephone were going to merge. It was obvious, even when 1 MBps was a big deal. Crank up the speed, reach more people, and you find yourself in a situation where it makes no sense to have three wires doing, poorly and expensively, what one wire can do very well.

For a long time, we’ve been able to place landline and cell calls over the web. Over the past few years, we’ve been using the web instead of cable TV. If it weren’t for my dad’s needs, I wouldn’t dream of paying for TV. I have had cable, and now I’m stuck with DirecTV. Both are inferior to the Internet.

It will be an embarrassment to mankind if cable TV and ordinary cell and landline service still exist in 5 years.

I thought I was clever when I saw the future of TV, the Internet, and the telephone, but last night God showed me something very obvious which I missed: the Internet is going to replace the government. Not only that, but Satan is all for it.

The political left belongs to Satan. In case anyone is interested, this is why we see witches getting together frequently to curse conservative politicians but never liberal politicians. The left is against Jesus, Israel, Jews, Christians, conservatives, sexual morality, cleanliness, good manners, and nearly every type of good behavior one can think of. If you want to find someone who thinks burglary should be legal, you have to look to the political left.

Look how leftists are acting now. They hate our current democracy. That shouldn’t surprise anyone; they supported Castro and Stalin. We have a democracy (please, nerds, no “republic” comments), and it’s not giving leftists what they want, so they have decided they’re not bound by its authority.

They attack conservatives on the street. They accost and frighten conservative politicians and their families. They doxx conservatives. Their leaders tell them to go after us in public places. They’ve gone berserk with civil disobedience.

Trump was elected fairly, in accordance with the law. Our Supreme Court justices were appointed and confirmed legally. Our GOP-controlled senators and representatives were put in place legitimately. We have a lot of conservative governors, and they won their seats in elections. Leftists aren’t having it. They’re not just complaining about the results; they’re saying the system itself has to be discarded and rebuilt so it works in their favor.

Suddenly, leftists hate the Electoral College and call it racist. They have no idea why it was created. They’re making up slavery-related stories in order to turn anyone who supports the College into a target for damaging accusations that are impossible to disprove.

They’re upset because Hillary Clinton got the popular vote but not the office of president. They say the person who gets the popular vote should get the job. Great logic. If that’s true, then we should abolish the Senate. Wyoming is basically empty, but it has the same number of senators as California.

The Senate is racist! Wyoming must be a racist state.

Leftists want a system in which the majority gets its way fast. They want hyper-democracy. They don’t want to be hindered by laws or morality. They believe they know best and that the rest of us have no rights except the right to be managed.

In the past, there was no way for citizens to get around the need for government. We didn’t have the ability to coordinate quickly and effectively. In order to influence society, we had to rely on representatives and tedious processes. That won’t always be true. Computing power is increasing all the time. Our ability to network and act quickly is increasing. We live in a world where a bunch of ghetto kids who feel like destroying a mall can organize their attack in hours.

In the future, leftists will be able to use the Internet and their personal devices to put mobs wherever they want, faster than the rest of us can react. When they want something, they won’t have to vote. They’ll show up in numbers the government can’t cope with, and they’ll rule by force.

At first, the new government will appear in isolated guerrilla actions. We’re already seeing that. As things develop, the left will cohere, and they will act with one deranged mind a good part of the time. Eventually, they will be like one communal organism, with what almost amounts to a single consciousness. They’ll be wrong about everything, but it won’t matter. They’ll be unified. Just as Spirit-led Christians have the mind of Christ, they’ll have the mind of the Beast.

Tech companies are run by extreme leftists, so they’ll be on the side of the mob. They’ll pretend to be dismayed at first, just as they pretend to want to be fair to us now, but gradually they will out themselves as supporters and architects of the revolution.

This has to happen. We can’t keep binding our minds together more and more effectively without developing a hive consciousness.

The hive will be very powerful, and when people are powerful, their real natures emerge. They don’t have to hide any more. They don’t have to pretend to have compassion or to care about fairness. Cruelty and deliberate injustice will surge to levels we can’t imagine right now.

Computerized persecution will be a wonder to behold. The other day I was in line at a grocery, and I saw all the technology around me. I realized it was a small step from persecuting Christians and conservatives on Facebook to fixing things so we could not buy food. “Your chip says you’re against gay marriage. You can’t shop here.”

If God lets the world continue long enough, technology will destroy and replace individual sovereignties. Countries will become obsolete. When we’re thinking and feeling across borders, with lightning speed, conventional governments won’t be able to regulate us.

The bizarre, infantile, cruel mob behavior we’re seeing from the left today is the Beast, taking baby steps. They’re going to get better and better at it, and because they control technology, we will not develop electronics-based power along with them.

The other day I dreamed I died. Nearly. For some reason, it seems like when I dream of death, I always die in a falling vehicle. Remember the death of the Illinois Nazi in the original Blues Brothers movie? That’s what it’s like. Somehow or another, I find myself and my vehicle plummeting, and it doesn’t scare me at all, because I’m tired of this place. When I think I’m about to die, I feel like I’m embarking on a thrilling adventure.

In my latest dream, I was driving a big vehicle like a bus. I was on an impossibly high overpass. A storm surrounded me and lifted the vehicle off the overpass, and I figured I would die when I hit the ground. I prayed intensely, trying to make sure I had salvation sewn up while I still had time. Suddenly, I saw a bright light, and it occurred to me how similar it was to the “white tunnel” stories people like to tell.

Unfortunately, I did not die. It turned out the bright light experience was the result of slamming into the ground and losing consciousness.

I was very disappointed. That’s how tired I am of this earth. Surviving what I thought was a fatal accident was a big blow. I was thinking, “Now not only do I have to stay in this miserable, evil place where I don’t belong; I may have to face all sorts of surgeries and physical therapy, and then I may be crippled. Great.”

I’ve had funny experiences during prayer when I felt like I would leave my body. I’ve had supernatural chest pains during prayer. I didn’t ask God to protect me and keep me alive. No way. I told him to do whatever he wanted to do. Any excuse to get sent home from the front.

Our future with a digital antichrist put together from juvenile, trashy individuals that hate me for existing is not alluring. This world is a mission field, so I know I have to stay here a while, but when it gets too sordid, and too much of the population has become unreachable and filled with apelike, unrestrained hate, I want out.

The left doesn’t want us on the planet any more. I am in complete agreement, but God’s plan doesn’t let me off that easy.

It’s astounding to see the capabilities electronics have given us. Unfortunately, the increase in power has been accompanied by a degradation of our humanity. It has eroded kindness and civility. We can’t handle the power. It’s going to destroy us. We will continue to use it to indulge, magnify, and mutate our basest drives.

By “us,” I mean the species. Myself not included.

This stuff will happen. It may not happen exactly as I describe, but it’s coming. You don’t need prophecy to see it coming. It’s the obvious, inevitable result of the changes we’re going through. We created new toys we are too stupid and venal to use in a mature fashion.

I don’t like being old. I hate reading glasses and knowing my potential is limited. I don’t look forward to falling apart. But I’m very glad I’m not young. The lucky people are the ones who are at the end of their lives. I read about a famous person’s death recently, and before I had time to censor myself, I thought, “Good for him!” He won’t have to suffer the indignity of being crushed by the autonomy-sapping strangler figs, Alexa and Siri.

I can’t believe people want Alexa in their homes. Imagine the digital surveillance records they’re creating. And they trust Jeff Bezos with it! A merchant! When did he prove he was worthy of that? Jeff Bezos is doing things that would have made J. Edgar Hoover faint from ecstasy.

One nice thing about my age is that it limits what the left can do to me. I’ll be gone in 30 years, more or less. That’s all the time they have to work on me. Then I get my vision back, along with perfect health, safety, and an atmosphere of overwhelming love. What if I were 20? It would scare me to death. Even with God at my side, helping me, I would not want to be here for another 70 years. I can see why Jesus left when he was young.

Our dystopian future will make films like Soylent Green and Alien seem idyllic, at least for people who see it for the horror it is. It makes me glad I’m mortal.

    The racist claims are, as usual, backwards. The equal representation in the Senate, the Electoral College, and the 3/5 compromise were all created to reduce the power of the big states, which were all slave states – New York, Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, and South Carolina.

    The Devil’s Pleasure Palace by Michael Walsh is a pretty good book about Satan’s use of the commies, particularly the members of The Frankfurt School, in advancing his plans.

    Steve, if I may differ a tad. If we accept that each of us is on this ball of dirt for a purpose, and dedicate our lives to doing the best we can (we are all after all a bit flawed), then the battle against evil is a just and glorious one. We raise our children to be better than us, or at least that is what I have attempted. Two of three I see are on the correct glide path, the third while not going downhill has been pinging between good and bad decisions, but being adults, they are launched now and we (the parents) stand back and do things on the margins.

    The left is self destructing everywhere, they always do. It is our task to encourage said destruction and protect to the best of our ability what is good.

    I continue to have great faith in my country and it’s people. This is not the first time our society has been shaken at the foundations and won’t be the last. The electronics revolution is still in it’s infancy and the concentration of power is going to dissipate, though it is currently quite dangerous. So long as we can pull a plug, AI and all of the cyber stuff is controllable.

    Figure I have about 20 years left and continue to be optimistic but not naive.

    May you continue to have the strength to see yo through your father’s days remaining. All the parents in my immediate family are now gone, that chapter is done and was tough to deal with at the time, but we get through it.

    When I turned 60 I started telling people I always counted on 15 more years. I kept that up until I was 70 and at that time thought well, really, did I really want 15 more years?
    All this time I have realized, it isn’t up to me. It isn’t in my hands. I could die in 15 minutes or 15 days or even to my dismay, it could be 15 years. I will be 82 on the 26th.
    I don’t know how long I have, it’s God’s will. I do want to be around long enough to keep caring for my husband who is 83 and his health is as good as mine. But it isn’t up to me.

    Jesus wants His Body to increase. He came to save and gather as many as possible.
    Our job is to gather them.
    My only rationale for wanting to stay.
    Not looking forward to infirmity.

    BTW. My landline is over cable as is my internet over which I watch youtube.tv not comcast.

    “The left is self destructing everywhere, they always do. It is our task to encourage said destruction and protect to the best of our ability what is good. ”

    I don’t think they’re self-destructing at all. The left is always chaotic, but they got the popular vote in the last three presidential elections, and they have won the cultural war and the battle for tech supremacy.

    Florida, an extremely important state which has been trending blue, just loaded up with far-left Puerto Ricans who fled hurricane destruction. Think about the thin margins we’ve had here over the last two decades, and think about the Electoral College.

    We’re never getting rid of gay marriage or Obamacare, and socialism will increase.

    Aside from all that, the left isn’t really the problem. We are up against supernatural forces. The only way to keep a nation afloat is for the people to pray and submit to God, and Christianity is shrinking and mutating in America.

    Are you sure you didn’t die in the dream?

    A while back, I had a dream that I was in a plane crash and it went down Flight 93 style. I saw the plane obliterated. Then I and everyone else got up and walked away from it. I woke up before anything else occurred.

    It occurred to me that this is what happens when we “die”: our spirits and souls get up and go to their destination.

    I’ve been on planes since then — this past weekend, as a matter of fact. Since the dream, I’ve been far less nervous when flying, though I suspect that this will be my method of departure, if you’ll pardon the pun.

    My request to God about it is that I have my earthly affairs in order before it happens. As you know, my spiritual affairs are in progress and moving in the right direction, thanks to taking your advice.
