Germanizing America
Eugyppius and Robert Malone hint at a German lead into American fascism.
To live in the U.S.A. in 2024 is to be lectured constantly about democracy. An endless parade of doubtful personalities – pundits, experts and a lot of very shrill women – appear on the television every night to tell you which parties are democratic, which people are democratic and therefore who enjoys democratic legitimacy. As we have seen, however, the whole concept of democracy is very confusing. Those people and organizations who want to mute free expression and ban political parties and candidates are all held to be extremely democratic, while those that demand more direct democracy and talk constantly about respecting the popular will are the direct modern equivalent of illiberal antidemocratic fascists.
To make all of this even harder, we are told that the upcoming November elections in the U.S.A. present a grave threat to democracy. To counteract this threat, we have things like the multiple prosecutions of one political party's Presidential candidate, where our greatest legal minds are at this very moment bravely brainstorming ways to defend American democracy from the grave threat of ordinary people expressing their political preferences via voting. Crucially, the very existence of the Trump prosecutions means that democracy must still reign supreme in America. Otherwise, there would be nothing for the democratic police of the current administration to defend. We therefore need only study American politics in their present state to gain a better idea of what this mysterious, shapeshifting, elusive phenomenon we call democracy might be.
We will start at the top. The current President of the United States is a highly democratic man named Joseph Biden:
Biden is a member of the Democrat party, or the Left Party, which is the strawman of the progressive party that seeks to permanently govern the USA. That might seem baffling, as the Democrats and Progressives are anything but democratic. Still more baffling is the fact that the constitutional protectors in the DOJ (Department of Justice) and IRS (Internal Revenue Service) suspected Republicans of antidemocratic tendencies and even surveilled them for many years. But democracy as we have learned is extremely complicated, and whatever moderate essence Biden may have harbored in the past, he is a stalwart democratic progressive politician today. He is also a huge fan of ice cream, which he enjoys eating during open air meetings with the press. That at least seems unambiguously democratic, and perhaps it is even enough to overcome Biden's cognitive unreliability in other respects.
Biden first became President in 2020, in a coalition government formed by Democrats and Progressives despite his campaign as a transitional moderate who would not continue beyond one term. Biden then appointed a man named Merrick Garland, previously rejected as a Justice of the Supreme Court, to head the Department of Justice.
Garland, who became important in his weaponizing of the DOJ on a partisan basis, is a member of the Democrat party and is active in highly democratic pursuits like internet censorship and lawfare. Democracy, we have seen, just gets more and more complicated.
In the 2020 US elections, some very nearly anti-democratic things happened. To begin with, the MAGA President was nearly re-elected after having "hijacked" the 2016 election, but this was prevented by necessary if unconstitutional modifications of election law and regulations in certain states, but then the eminently democratic coalition of Democrats, socialists and progressives lost their absolute majority in the House in 2022. What made that worse, was the fact that the evil fascists of Republicans improved their representation in the Senate as well, largely at the expense of the pro-democracy Democrats. It was hard for the luminaries of American democracy in government, the mainstream media, and academia to work out how to dominate and permanently enshrine a government in this undemocratic situation. Nothing could be more antidemocratic than cooperating with the Rhinos and risk rewarding the MAGAs. Some people dreamed of a grand Democrat, progressive, socialist, environmentalist, climate change, minority, multigender, WOKE, and ESG coalition, but that hasn't happened. In the end, everybody thought it best for the Democrats to form a government with the support of the mainstream media, who found it vastly preferable to keep MAGA out of government than to govern themselves while censoring others.
Thus did our extremely clever if scheming incumbents manage to restore the status quo and save democracy from those filthy, deplorable, Bible-thumping, gun-clutching antidemocratic voters who had delivered a clear mandate for a very different, right-leaning government in 2016.
All, however, was not quite safe for democracy. There still remained the matter of who would be President given Biden's obvious cognitive decline and cackling Kamala Harris' obvious incompetence. The Democrats obviously wanted their brave leader Biden to serve another term under the continuing control of Obama's lieutenants as advisors (similar to Edith's role in Wilson's final decline), but Biden failed in maintaining the coalition of moderates, No Party Preferences, and minorities, even angering the devout followers of The Squad. A third candidate, the Camelotian Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, made substantial inroads in Biden's coalitional support. Kennedy resolutely attracts voters from both sides of the political spectrum, and this made him more or less a fascist and conspiracy theorist by association. Everybody in the ruling coalition and the mainstream media decried this antidemocratic turn of events. Kennedy's family in particular was very upset. They declared that RFK, Jr.'s candidacy was an “unforgivable event” that would have to be prevented. Within days, the personally democratic if situationally antidemocratic Kennedy was kept off the ballots of most states. Courts might later declare the DOJ intervention in Trump's campaign and the denial of a third party candidacy unconstitutional, but somehow all of this was still intensely democratic, which just shows you how complicated democracy is.
Having learned that democracy in America cannot easily be divorced from outcomes that favor the left, our chastened Congress, administrative state, and mainstream media rapidly did all to assure Biden would serve another term as President, even if that meant that Kamala Harris would serve out most of his second term, which is of course what they wouldn't have done in the first place except for the threat to democracy presented by the populist voters. This was all extremely, almost sublimely democratic, although in such a complicated way, that some people wondered if things had not gone a little bit too far. Perhaps there had been too much of this new complicated democracy. Biden therefore promised to hold two debates to remove any doubtful aura attaching to his dementia, but he might never get around to that, being prevented in this by other profoundly democratic things like mismanaged foreign wars, Zionist conspiracies, and the failure of the Federal Reserve to rescue his economy.
All of this means that Biden might continue as President, mumbling and sleeping his way through tiresome meetings with domestic and foreign officials and confabulating to the press. It also means that our stalwart constitutional protector Merrick Garland remains in office, vigorously defending this bold new form of lawfare democracy against the popular will, from which it has almost completely divorced itself. Under Garland, the American constitutional protectors declared MAGA to be “proven right-wing extremists” as shown by the January 6, 2021 insurrection. On all mainstream media, Garland, and Wray, the Director of the FBI (Federal Bureau of Intimidation) explained that they had made this classification public “because one of our tasks is to make voters aware of this danger so that their decision at the ballot box will hopefully help prevent extremists (and other domestic terrorists such as school moms) from coming into government.” Garland further emphasized that “I will do everything I can between now and election day, within the scope of my personal interpretation of my legal options and civic duties, to ward off the extremist attack.” Those words – “extremist attack” – are how Biden and the mainstream media refer to the election campaign of any but the incumbent party, because those others are just so antidemocratic.
In summary: A constitutional protector who owes his office to a President who was elected from his basement to prevent anti-constitutional interventions of another who had been preferred by anti-democratic populists (voters) is now vowing to use his office to forestall political developments that may deprive his President and party of power in the future. It is almost like “democracy” in America is synonymous with progressive left-wing government. Elections which threaten to deprive Biden or his ilk of office or his left-wing coalition of power are by definition anti-democratic, deplorable and perhaps even illegal, at least in New York City and Fulton County, Georgia.
Americans can vote for whichever party they want, but their votes are only democratic if they are cast for a specific party and by unverifiable means. If Biden has his way, America will soon achieve the democratic end-state – one in which the sad reality of popular sovereignty in practice will be replaced with a theoretical popular sovereignty that exists entirely in an ideal, Platonic form, unchanging and as it ought to be, now and forever.
