I made it to 14:00. I could go no further yesterday. I did do a few cleaning and cooking chores, but that was it. I set the alarm clock in order to try and wake up. Not a chance, I did not awaken until 23:00. So, it just is not working right now. I will keep trying, and try to do some of the other things on my list. *sigh*
I have been reading a bit. Blogs are my reading sources of choice. The “News” is dysfunctional. Reading books takes more than I can gather to keep it together. I like to track details, people, and connections. If I cannot do that over two to three hundred pages or more, I let it go.
Some things I have seen debated, or have extracted from the debates: should women fear men; what is women's place in society; Whether law should be blind, perhaps to the point of stupidity, or whether it should be prejudiced; and how conservatives can take control of the Republican party, or create our own. Of course, I have some thoughts about these. I will try not to be too cynical, short, or spiteful.
Should women fear men? It is a simple question, and the answer is yes and no. By that I mean they should fear men, just not consciously. How this is performed is that women have to know they are not the equals of men. Physically, they will lose, even quite often if all things are not equal. Her will is no good against a man who wants something from her. However, if she lives a good life, and uses some common sense with her associations and how she associates, this fear should be more passive. Good men will not, even when we do not get our way, physically override a woman’s will. Not all men are good. And knowing which is which is not indefatigably definable without finding ones’ self in trouble. So, do not associate freely and singularly until wisdom and knowledge is stronger. A cage, I suppose, but never believe any of us are not caged. Even men know one bad choice can be our last.
Women do have a place in society, work, medicine, and lots of other areas. However, their strongest place is as a partner to a man, mother to children, and domestic mistress. Outside of that, she can function. I would argue, she is less efficient in those other areas. It is not that business, science, and such were made for men, it is that their rigors are more easily borne by men. Long hours, dirty situations (mud, oil, etc) do not put men at as great of a risk. Men get sick less than often than women, in any case. Women have chosen to “do it for themselves”. While that seems fine, our culture and population, has probably come to an end. What will replace it will not allow any such foolishness. At this point, does it matter? The only answer I can suggest is, maybe. Or more, perhaps, with faith.
Should the law ignore the details, including often previous behavior, demographics (or that but only one way), social norms (which the judiciary seems to try to bypass in any case), and such. The answer is that the judiciary needs to be on top of it. Yes, they need to be blind in distributing justice evenly from crime to crime, but they cannot ignore common sense, prior activity, or even statistics. Being blind and stupid is not in our favor. It will lead to street justice, which often turns quite ugly and then often morphs into greater problems (think gangs and the mafia). Our system is becoming defunct simply because it will not do what it should, that is, protect us from serious threats. When a false rape accusation can ruin a man even if he is found innocent and nothing is done to the woman, when killing a dog even if in an ugly way can get as great a sentence as killing a human, when pedophiles are allowed to slide until they kill and then given lighter sentences that dog killing, things have gone so far that one has to consider abandoning all the law, lawyers, law schools, judges, and law makers for the last half a century, and restarting things from that time from scratch.
So much is wrong and there are no simple or easy means of correcting these things. Then again, a revolution would not necessarily be any better. Our revolution was one success in a nearly vacant field of such events which ended successfully. The French Revolution turned into mass murder then a dictator, the German NAZI revolution was a murderous regime from the start as well, and the Russian, Chinese, Cuban, and Venezuelan revolution have all gone down the ladder to the most base of human bestiality as fast as they could. There is little difference between the depravity of socialism and communism. Kings were better, for some large part.
I am not sure what could work, but being more for action than patience, I still lean toward revolution, of some sort or other. But first, we will have to find our Washington, Franklin, and others. Then, we will have to collect. I guess the first thing to do is to see if the military is constitutional or if they will "simply follow orders". Anyway, lots to fix, little time, and in the end, it may not matter. However, since I have seen none of the signs of the end, I think if we fail, we are just in for a global governance along the lines of the E.U., or more, to Hitler’s ideals for governance. Those “smart uniforms” and that absolute secular certainty will not seem so great to those who currently dream of secular governance. They never got to see NAZIs decline into the same type of corruption and evil (often denying the concentration camps) that Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, and the others had time to exhibit (who they often just deny knowing anything about).
And another thing, secularism is always weak. It will fail against islam. Britain and Canada are now at least mulling over incorporating sharia law into their legal systems, among other nations. In the end, women, as well as men, will be far less free than they have any understanding at this time. No one in this nation has ever been a slave. No one here has had to submit to political dictation, down to celebrating the political leader’s birthdays, buying the books they write, and either joining “The Party” or being left on the sidelines of society. Heck, no one has even been put in jail for not being employed (while having employment be based completely on political affiliations, if that is actually seeming to become the case, starting in academia decades ago and spreading like rot from there).
Yeah, this is going to hurt. One way or the other, Americans will know war on their soil like never before or they will wake up or both. Or, they will kneel and obey, openly, not sneakily as in academia, medicine, unions, and other professions now.
Oh well, I need sleep again.
"...women have to know they are not the equals of men. Physically, they will lose, even quite often if all things are not equal."
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's something too many people, men and women, have difficulty dealing with.
"Then again, a revolution would not necessarily be any better."
Yeah, in today's world people talk about revolutions like they're nice or something, but they're not, they're bloody, dirty and not quite like our fantasies.
"And another thing, secularism is always weak. It will fail against islam."
Yep, and we're seeing that before our very eyes.
Enjoy the sleep doom.
