Comic review: Klaus #2- The Road to Freedom

Writer: Grant Morrison
Art: Dan Mora
Publisher: Boom! Studios
Released: 16th December 2015



‘So. We have a malcontent in our midst. Someone who refuses to play by the rules of civilisation.’


Evil hides beneath the veneer of collective goodness, taking from you, to give to him, as he deserves it more than you, we are more than you, and we have soldiers, swords/guns, and what are you going to do about it, little man?

It’s socialism. The theft of what you own, of what you have worked for, given to the spawn of the state, an ungrateful spoilt kid.

It’s evil here, real world evil in a beautifully drawn tale about Santa with muscles.

Happy Christmas to a world enthralled with unreality, dictators ain’t the problem mate, it’s collectivism, and you, the collectivised spoilt masses are at the centre of the matrix web of social control.

The world is a hall of smashed mirrors. Grant Morrison takes a shard, and shines it in your eyes. Understand the violent coercion of mirror shattering state apparatus. Here it is, for all to see. Can you see it?

Life should be a road not made. Create one, for yourself. The road well worn is a Disney movie, old, tired, regurgitated emptiness, the road is strewn with weeds, and it leads to nowhere.

Open up a new path to possibility where nostalgia withers, and everyday is a new day, with a new you, creation drunk, exploring your incandescent eternity of endless possibility and ever-expanding consciousness emancipation.

When Morrison gets it right he is an excellent road builder. In Klaus #2 he is building a very fine road indeed, and I'm more than happy to take a Yule time trip down his merry road to freedom.

Rating: 9/10

Klaus #2 is a lovely Christmas tale, it has jokes, but there’s depth here as well. This is more than the usual surface cleverness, nostalgia and social justice that you will find in an average Marvel comic book, or the new Disney Star Wars movie. 

There is real joy here, real creativity, and an acknowledgement that socialism boiled down is the state using collectivised guilt to justify the theft of resources from it’s tax netted population. 

Klaus is a book about individualism, and in this collectivised western world of shared weakness, shared inanity, and shared guilt, what better Christmas gift could any anarchist individualist ask for? 




A special Christmas message to everybody at Boom!Studios

Happy Christmas Boom!Studios. Happy Christmas Grant Morrison. Happy Christmas Dan Mora. Thanks for this fantastic comic book that is all about the Christmas spirit, not of collectivism, but of kind-hearted, individualistic volunteerism away from the violence and coercion that is old time monarchy/dictatorship and its modern day equivalent of neoliberal collectivised socialism. I'm loving the message here, and it's very much appreciated. Have a great Christmas, and I'll see you all in 2016.

50-Word (Comic) review: Symmetry #1- Individualism versus Collectivism

Writer: Matt Hawkins
Artist: Raffaele Ienco
Publisher: Top Cow/Image Comics
Released: 9th December 2015


Liberal writer takes his PC ideology, creates a progressive future for us all. Writes a socialist paradise of clones, controlled by hive-mind AI, free of individualism, slaves to the greater good, a nightmare liberal utopia. Is ‘Symmetry’ detailing a progressive mind breaking free from its cultural Marxist programming? We’ll see.



Rating: 8/10

A very intriguing beginning with a lefty comic book writer (yes, I know, they are all lefties today) exploring issues of individualism versus collectivism. 

It would be unwise to get too excited at this early stage, but I get the sense that writer Matt Hawkins has an open mind (and that is a rare thing in the left today) and is genuinely concerned about a utopian future created by the progressive/collectivist/totalitarian left.  

He’s looking at this future and seeing a lack of creative individualism (and as a creative man himself, why wouldn’t he?) and realising that perhaps this hive mind borg collectivist ideology is not as great as he had previously thought it to be. 

That’s the funny thing about creative liberals. They are a lot more individualistic and ‘right-wing’ than they think that they are, it’s just that they do one thing (using their individuality to create something new) and promote the direct opposite (calling for ideological collectivisation). 

The contradiction that is at the heart of cultural Marxist programming will finally be the thing that defeats it. As the progressive writers begin to understand just what it is that they have been promoting, they will inevitably turn against the narrow dictates of politically correct, collectivist, virtue signalling ideology, and start to get back onto the freedom train of individualism, creativity and human freedom. 

There’s a guy called Trump who is breaking down a few walls at the moment. He’s controversial. He’s brave, and he’s very, very popular. There is a reason for his popularity, and it’s not because his followers are all evil, racist, sexist bigots. The reason for his popularity is that he is an INDIVIDUAL battling against the status quo political ideology of COLLECTIVISM. You might not like Trump, but that’s not the point. The point is that we need to get back to individualism, and to leave this era of politically correct collectivism behind us. It’s dangerous, and we need to get rid of it.

'Obey' (A webcomic about the reality threatening cult of collectivism)

Under the collectivist model, truth and morality is defined by the consensus of the group, therefore objective (outside of the group) truth and morality do not exist. The individual that argues for moral truth is wrong, not because of the strengths (or weaknesses) of his argument, he is wrong because he is not part of the group, and therefore, does not exist.

Abyssal - The Cornucopian: The Awakened Force of the Sacred Masculine

Play track, and read.......

Do you hear that quiet discontented, maladjusted male voice stirring? At first in chaos, disorganised, so many nails, standing up, isolated, separated, disorganised, inefficient in solitude, then finally, together, rising above the parapet, in rage, unafraid any longer to sleep amongst the feminised, sedated hordes. We rumble our discontent, individualistically, believing our cry will never be heard, we cry anyway, a defiant roar of anger, a no, a refusal to join, to accept the collectivisation of acquiescence, until finally, a damn bursts, our individual voices merge as one, and a crescendo of violent rhythm crashes, like a wave against the anaesthetic hordes. The elite’s cry out in horror, it wasn’t supposed to be like this, the sheeple were to sleepwalk into tyranny, but no, the enemy, humanity, with the sacred masculine leading the charge, has risen, as one, as a NO, a defiant fist into the face of globalisation, of neoliberalism, of multiculturalism of cultural Marxism. The wall of tell lie vision iphone helplessness collapses under a tide of righteous male anger, a refusal to lie down and accept their plans for Armageddon, their dreams of chaos before their new world tyranny, the days before the end. Awakened in violent fury, the weakness of collectivised power collapses overnight against the barrage of western masculine holocaust aggression. The battle is short, and the dark suit wearing demons are banished to the pit where they belong. Man acts. God is the judge. A world reclaimed, the wall of obliterating masculine anger subsides, and calm returns, there will be no more sleeping, we wait in guard, tyranny will be kept in check, the sacred masculine watchmen of western civilisation sleep no more. We wait, in preparation, for tyranny to stir again. A single velvet glove, with iron fist, a smile for all, but warning to those that would collectivise the future. Humanity settles, the world prospers under free association, the non-aggression principal and golden rule being the moral law of the land. No more coercion, no more statism, no more uniforms, and no more leaders. The imperfect ape-like being, blessed with the divine gift of God consciousness, finally achieves its brave new world. It’s not the one the globalists had been ‘banking’ upon.

A definition of freedom: Negative reviews, a prison world, collectivism and the right of an individual to remain outside, alone, unhappy, but free.

Article by: Mark.A Pritchard (aka Rorshach1004/SwindonPoet)

Date: 29th October 2015



It can be tiring, frustrating, depressing and soul destroying when you read and review a book (or movie) that isn’t very good.

People don’t want to hear ‘negative’ comments about something that they like, so what you are doing is spending your time writing reviews that will be ignored. People will see it as a ‘negative’ review, and will not bother to read the entire article, and they certainly won’t comment or leave you any feedback on it. However, if you go over the top with mad praise about something, you’ll get a big audience and receive plenty of positive feedback, some probably coming from the creator/writer himself.

Here’s the deal, as I see it. In 2015 we live in a world of media choices where people choose only to consume the media that conforms to their particular world-view. Liberal types read liberal media. Conservative types read conservative media, and ‘geek’ types read media that offers them a little cocoon of unreality where they can hide within a soft feminist, identity politics obsessed, cultural Marxist, neo-liberal world of get-along-gang unreality.

So when somebody like myself comes along and starts to slag off their beloved unreality texts, they do what you might expect them to do. They ignore my words, and stay within the confines of their familiar reservations, where they don’t have to think about anything that makes them feel uncomfortable with the comic book ‘geek’ culture programming products that they are consuming.

I’m not complaining about this situation, I just want to state on the record that I’m very much aware of what is going on. I expect to be ignored, and I also expect to have the occasional pat on the head when I go overboard and heap praise on something. That’s just how it works today in 2015 where the consumer self-censors his own thought processess.

You don’t need Internet police or censorship to stop 'difficult' people like myself. Comic book fans do the work of the censors for them. Anything outside of their neo-liberal, progressive, corporate/statist consensus world-view is disregarded as the ravings of a madman, as something coming from a crazy person who is taking the fun out of comics, taking things too seriously, or just somebody who has too much time on his hands. If that doesn’t work then they can always fall back on their beloved identity politics and call me racist, or sexist, either category will do. My opinionated words challenge the established comic book order, and so of course, they must be ignored.

What I want to do here is to offer up some words of encouragement for sidelined people, like myself, that might be reading this little article.

Keep on writing, keep on doing what you are doing. I don’t have to agree with a single word that you say, but we need disagreeable, individualistic people more than any other time right now.

We need the nutters, we need the moaners and complainers, and we need the wacky and the strange. We need the anti-social outsiders to mock and insult the socio-political norms of our times.

Humanity is sleepwalking into a world of soft state collectivism, and the people are happily imprisoning themselves within a cage of their own making.

In other words, and this is me talking about myself now: I know that I am outside, and I choose to remain here, outside. I can see the cages, the bars, and I can see the people happily existing within them. I see families building the prisons, and I see well-intentioned mothers and fathers encouraging their children to reinforce the gates and bars. The people look so happy living within their own self built prisons, and if that’s where they are happiest, then who am I to demand that they free themselves?

If they want to live in jail, then they are free to live in jail.

I myself though chose to stay here, alone, outside of the prison, and although it can be a bit depressing and soul-destroying at times, there’s nowhere that I’d rather be. To quote from ‘A Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley: ‘ All right then, said the savage defiantly, ‘I’m claiming the right to be unhappy.’ And this, my collectivist friends, is the very definition of being free.

50-Word-Review: The Uncanny Inhumans #1- Starring Christine Legarde as Medusa

Writer: Charles Soule
Artist: Steve McNiven
Publisher: Marvel/Disney
Released: 21st October 2015


Medusa as Christine Lagarde, Hillary Clinton, Angela Merkel, totalitarians masquerading as liberators, protectors. Humanity enslaved to collectivised left, on the Daily Show/ CNN. Male emasculation as female liberation, cheat on your husband, in his face, no shame, immorality is tolerance, kill tradition, diversity a mantra, collectivisation, feminist New World Order.



Rating: 2/10


There’s two stories going on in ‘The Uncanny Inhumans #1# but they didn’t particularly grip me. The first one involves Black Bolt trying to get his son back from cartoon evil ‘Kang the Conqueror.’ The second story involves his wife (Queen Medusa) acting like a globalist politician, ‘Your world is our world. We will always fight to keep it safe.’ Medusa is the empowered boss of this book, working with what looks a UN approved superhero diversity team, appearing on collectivist, progressive media platforms (The Daily Show), and concluding her day by kissing her new boyfriend in front of her ex-husband’s (are they even divorced yet?) face. What does she think about her missing son? It is her son, as well as Black Bolt’s, right? We don’t know, as she never mentions it, she’s far too busy with her political agenda, and new boyfriend to care about a missing boy, even if he is her own son. Oh, by the way, she’s a heroine in this book, not a villain. Yep, what we have here is the typical ‘progressive’ feminist protagonist, more concerned with her career and personal pleasure than the welfare of her own family. She’s not a woman, she’s a representation of the very worst kind of man, but that’s third-wave feminism for you, and that’s exactly what you are getting in this comic book. Female empowerment is always pushed as a good thing as it emasculates men, denies the biological reality of femininity, and pushes females into positions of authority within the new state collectivist system of human enslavement. Females are encouraged to join this system where they can boss around/protect the poor innocent victim/voters that grovel at their feet in willing supplication. Females know what is best, because they are female, and they get to tell us all what to think, feel and do. If you disagree with them that means you are you are a misogynist bigot and are a danger to the wonderful new world order that is currently being ushered in by the wonderful progressive liberal writers working for globalist programmers Marvel/Disney comics. If you disagree with any of this progressive agenda then you are a barrier to ‘progress,’ to be ostracised from society and thrown in jail if you continue to speak up on any of these issues and invade the ‘safe space’ non-reality of all that push it. Hey guys, blokes, men, and any traditionally minded female who values family, respect, honour and real femininity over far-left communist inspired ideology. Why are you reading these comics? You do realise that they are attacking YOU, don’t you? I read them to expose this anti-human ideology, and to talk about it in these ‘reviews,’ because nobody else is doing it, and comic books are being given a free reign to push this collectivist crap. I have to write about it, because I disagree with what they are pushing, and I want to call them out on it. That’s my excuse for (occasionally) buying these horrible tools of Marxist/Globalist/FemiNazi propaganda. What is yours? 




* Bonus story is statist bull**** with an agent of the state rescuing a poor innocent helpless civilian/victim from evil white men with beards. Same old s***.

50 Word (Comic) Review: The Astonishing Ant-Man #1- Ants, the Ultimate Collectivists

Writer: Nick Spencer
Artist: Ramon Rosanas
Publisher: Marvel/Disney
Released: 21st October 2015



A tonne of exposition, dialogue from Ant-Man, sounds child-like, nothing adult about his words. Is this book for pre-teens? Art lacks detail, appears 2D, static, not impressed. Villains are businessmen, tech industry, inventors, innovators, and ‘libertarian.’ Oh dear, another book for the collectivist youth brigade then. I’ll pass. Goodbye Pants-Man.


Rating: 1/10

It took me a couple of pages to realise that this comic book isn’t really for adults. There’s something very simplistic, and childlike about the dialogue, almost like it has been designed for children under the age of thirteen. But would I give it to a kid? No, I wouldn’t. Here’s why. The main protagonist is a loser father, a man portrayed as loving, but inept, and the main villains are businessmen, the kind of people who actually create, innovate and make the world a better place. They are the villains because they are selfish, because they want to make money with the things that they have created, and thus you are getting the message that business innovation is villainous, and that you need to join the collective and stop being so darn selfish. It’s the same idea that is explored in ‘Atlas Shrugged’ by Ayn Rand, the big difference being that in ‘The Astonishing Ant Man #1’ businessmen are the villains, whilst in Atlas Shrugged they are the heroes. Why are mainstream comic books pushing collectivism onto the developing minds of young children? Why are they indoctrinating them into the cult of collectivism, programming them with the idea that innovation, business and money making itself is a bad thing? Do you know what particular group despises making money and inventing new things? In one word- Communists. Why would a writer be pushing Communist ideology in a 2015 comic book? He either believes in it, or he doesn’t even know that he’s doing it. It’s one of the two, and I just hope that it’s the former because at least then he’d still be thinking with his own mind. I would strongly advise against any parent buying this poisonous comic book for their young children. This is horrible, but am I surprised that Marvel/Disney is pushing this? No, not really. They don’t want any competition, they want to maintain the status quo that serves them so well, and that’s exactly what is being pushed within the pages of this comic book. Welcome to the era of corporate/state/collectivism. You can call it ‘globalism’ or ‘the New World Order,’ if you like.

50 Word (Comic) Review: 2000AD-PROG 1953- I Want to Break Free

Writers and Artists: Various
Publisher: Rebellion
Release Date: 21st October 2015



Dredd story gets it. Chinny mocks uniformed order following authoritarianism. Defoe is class war, reanimation of dead ideology, collectivist Corbyn awaits guest appearance. Brass Sun hits religious collectivism. Dexter is mainstream television, cool people violence, yuck, don’t desensitise me Bro. Bad Company rejects drugged sheeple culture, awakening time. I approve.


Rating: 8/10

Judge Dredd// Serial Serial is fast becoming the best Dredd story that I’ve read in a long, long time. Writer John Wagner really gets the absurdity that is Judge Dredd and he’s putting a lot of humour into this daft story about a serial killer and his cliché taunting letters to the cops. It’s a great send up not just of Dredd, but the entire ‘serial killer’ genre itself. I missed this at first, but I’m well on-board now. Defoe//The London Hanged is a slow builder, and there’s real meat in the rich versus poor story-line, as it ties into what is happening in the real world UK of 2015 with a largely unrepresented and disaffected tax netted population being ripped off by a bunch of Eton educated toffs, and with the only alternative being a Labour party that is going back to their dated Marxist ideology of the 1970’s. Brass Sun//Motorhead is getting to that part of the story where individuals rise up against the collectivist controllers. If only we would do that in the real world. Sinister Dexter// The Taking of the Michael is graphic blood and violence with the gross-out realism that you get on ‘cool’ mainstream US television programming. I don’t like it. I don’t like US television, and I don’t like to read it in my comics either. There is nothing ‘cool’ about shooting somebody in the head. Bad Company// First Casualties is old school 2000AD. It has top retro art, a wry sense of humour and the plot itself is a boys own adventure tale about a group of buddies getting off their drugs, clearing their heads and starting to fight back against the collectivist, lying control system that has used and abused them. In other words, it’s a story about retired soldiers realising that they have been used like dogs, and have been put into a drugged up retirement home as they are too damaged to be of any more use to the sociopathic state. I love it, and I love 2000AD this week. I disliked only one out of five of the stories, and that’s a very good strike rate, or whatever that American term is. 

50 Word Review- Civil War #5: A study in divide and conquer manipulation, individualism and collectivism

Writer: Charles Soule
Art: Leinil Francis Yu
Publisher: Marvel
Released: 14th October 2015


End of Civil War arc resonates with reality. Both sides manipulated into war. Narrative conclusion highlights real world male/female divide. Feminine/left gives up liberty for illusion of security. This is why governments target females, demonising men/family/tradition. Right/male choose individuality versus collectivism. Peter Parker chooses anarchy/morality/individualism, makes me smile, worthwhile arc.


Rating: 9/10


This arc was occasionally confusing, and a lot of things didn’t make sense to me, but the conclusion offers something that I can get my teeth into. Read it as you like, but what I see here is an admission that a lot of manipulation is going on in the real world, and that when the puppet masters are revealed, and destroyed, there will be a choice to make. That choice will be individualism versus collectivism. The totalitarian, feminine left, versus the individualistic, masculine right. This is not a gender war. It’s an ideological war. Comic book readers are predominantly male, and predominantly left wing and feminine in their world-views. They are statist/collectivists, liberals, progressives, and slaves to the state, the idea that you have to give up personal liberty in order to have personal freedom. It’s a contradiction, as the more liberty you give up, the less freedom you have. The mainstream political establishment is liberal/progressive today. Comic books are also mainstream liberal/progressive in their world-views, so it’s nice to see the other side in a comic book for a change. This Civil War arc by Charles Soule, gives fair airing to that other side, and for that reason alone it’s a very valuable and worthwhile comic book to read and to get in tpb as soon as it’s available.

Secret Wars #6 of 8: Fatherhood versus State Collectivism

Art: Essad Ribic
Story: Jonathan Hickman
Publisher: Marvel (Disney)
Released: 7th October 2015

This article is not a review. It’s intention is to discuss the role of fatherhood, using Secret Wars #6 to illustrate some of the broader points about the importance of fathers within the family unit and as a vital component in today’s fight against the collectivisation agenda pushed by the modern state apparatus.

In Secret Wars #6 a young girl (Valeria) is undergoing the process of realisation that her stepfather is a liar. His name is Doctor Doom. He is a dictator, a man pretending to be God. He represents the western democratic bogeyman of 2015, the anti-democratic dictator. This evil man must be disposed by western military intervention. He represents the past. He is an obstacle to change.

Valeria Richards appears to be about twelve years old, and is portrayed as independent, intellectual, very smart, very questioning, and very self-aware. She is like no twelve-year-old girl that I have ever met. Simply put, she is exceptional, a genius.

This positioning of the exceptional young female who questioning male authority figures is a common theme in contemporary comic books. The old structure of western society is portrayed as being organised around male power, normally tied to religion. It is portrayed as corrupt, violent and an obstacle to human progress. It needs to be replaced by young females. The message is clear. Old men need to step down. Religion is a lie. There is no God. The message is feminist and atheist.

The argument is that men, and the religions that they have created, have made the world the terrible place that it is today. Men and religion are oppressive symbols of the past. Women and atheism are the future. What we need then is a brave new (atheist) world controlled by exceptional young women. This is the idea, and it comes from Rockefeller funded university classes that push Marxist, feminist identity politic cultural programming onto the middle-classes, specifically girls, but men get it as well.

This is how it works: Middle class children are taught that white males are to blame for all of the evils of the world. The real reasons (blind obedience to the violently coercive power of the centralised state) is not taught. They are taught that the solution is to build up girls as the replacement, as the future leaders, that girls (because they are not boys) will make the world a better place.

Boys and girls go through the same cultural programming, girls are empowered by it, and as boys want to please girls, they go along with it as well. It doesn’t matter if the underlying assumptions are true, or not. What matters is that boys want to please girls, so they are happy to accept it as truth, even if it’s not, even if all the evidence around them contradicts what they have been programmed to believe. What young man would want to be labelled as a misogynist? None, and so they go along with the cultural programming.

Will the future then be a utopian society ran by female geniuses? No, it will not. The future is NOW, as this cultural programming has been pushed by universities for over fifty years, and has been a constant in progressive mainstream media texts for the past decade, at least.

So why isn’t the world a wonderful place today? What went wrong?

Instead of producing a western world of female geniuses changing the world for the better, what has been produced is a broken society where family break-up is the norm. The family unit has been targeted, and destroyed, and females now compete with men in order to serve state control systems that collectivise the individual and make the world a worse place for all of us all, men, women and children alike.

Men have been continuously told that they are bad, just because they are men, and women have never been more depressed, lonelier and isolated.

The progressive world of feminist ideology leads to frustration, depression and dependency upon the state. The genius girl as portrayed in Secret Wars #6 is all grown up now, and she is a retired government worker. She is a spinster, surrounded by cats, with no family of her own, drinking, taking prescription medicine for anxiety and depression, and wondering why her life turned out the way that it did. And how does she answer this question? She blames men, and thus, the cycle is complete.

In 2015 progressivism as pushed by cultural Marxism has created a society that blames men, depresses women, destroys families and empowers the state.

That is the inevitable end result of progressivism. When you attack tradition, attack masculinity itself and put young girls on undeserved pedestals you get a breakdown of the family, and a subsequent breakdown of society itself. Of course you do, what else could possibly happen? That is the disease of contemporary liberal ‘progressive’ ideology fused with third wave feminism. It is an ideology of destruction, of collapsing all that has come before it, in order to bring in a utopia that has never existed, and cannot exist as it goes against human nature itself.

In a progressive society nobody is empowered, women are miserable, families collapse, and the world that is created is a collectivist, soviet Russia style Hell hole. All that is remains is ideology wedded to the state. This is Hell. This is the world that we live in. This is the world that we are continuing to build with disenfranchised men, bitter, disappointed women and unhappy, fatherless children.

Secret Wars has a chance to tackle the ideology of collectivism wedded to the state. You have to remember that Doctor Doom is not the real father of Valeria. He is a stepfather, and thus could be portrayed as a state stand-in, an artificial substitute for the real father, the real head of the family unit. Valeria’s real father (Reed Richards) is plotting against the state as represented by Doom, so this story could put out a strong message about the role of the father in reuniting the family unit against the tyranny of the state.

If Doom represents the tyranny of the Collectivist State, a tyranny that takes the role of absent men/fathers within the family unit, then the victory of Reed Richards will be saying that men need to return to the family in order to resist the power of the collectivised state.

There are two issues left in this Secret Wars arc, and it’s very likely that this will happen, so even though I get fed up with this continuous pushing of the girl genius as the liberator of humanity, the likelihood is that this book will have a very positive conclusion. Will it happen, will the role of the father as a barrier against state collectivism be re-established, just as it needs to be in the real world? I hope so, and I’ll keep on reading in order to find out.

Comic review: Godzilla in Hell #3- Godzilla the Anarchist

Writers: Ulises Farinas & Erick Frietas
Art: Buster Moody
Publisher: IDW
Released: 30th September 2015



For me, this ostensibly ‘daft’ series about Godzilla in the land of the big red guy has been the surprise hit of 2015.  I expected a laugh from it, but what I have got is an excellent platform for artists and writers to show off and really explore their own creative inspirations.

Every month there has been a different writer and artist. I’ve reviewed all three months, so if you want to know what happened in the previous two issues then check them out on my blog. I strongly advise that you do, as they really do have a lot of offer.

Last month the art and concept was the star, but this month it’s all about the concept. The art serves this month, taking a backseat to the power of the story, and what it is so concisely (and successfully) trying to say.

The narrative structure is simple. Godzilla has a fight on earth. He blows it up, goes to Heaven, has a fight in Heaven, goes to Hell, has a fight in Hell, wins, leaves, alone, independent, unconquerable, refusing to join, refusing to submit to anybody, even Heaven itself.

It could read as being a bit daft, but it really isn’t. What is happening here is a comic book analogy of the real world battle between individualism and collectivism.

Godzilla refuses to join, and it doesn’t matter to him one jot whether it’s Satan or God himself that is asking him. He refuses because he is an individual. He couldn’t care less about factions, or ideology. He fights for himself. He rejects leadership, rejects followers, rejects kingship, and fights not for dominance, but for the moral right to be left alone and to be separate from the eternally warring collective.

Godzilla is the ultimate realisation of an anarchist freedom fighter. He isn’t heading up a Marxist or even right leaning anarchist army and going to war for dominance. No, he’s doing what all real anarchists should be doing, he’s refusing to join the collective group think ideology of any political constitution, and going 100% libertarian anarchist, and fighting for his right to be left alone from any external collectivist, group-think control system.

When Godzilla wins a battle he turns his back, and leaves. He has won, but the spoils of war do not interest him. He rejects followers, territory, power and (most importantly) authoritarianism collectivism.

Godzilla won't be led, and he certainly won’t be a leader either. It’s that mindset that is really going to change the world, the mindset of the independent individual who will not join, will not submit and will not lead another cult of collectivist followers.

Go your own way, do your own thing, embrace the life of a truly free individual, fight your own battles, for yourself, reject the collectivism of any group-think ideology, force yourself to be free, force yourself to be like Godzilla.



Rating: 8/10 (For it’s strong moral message of individualism versus collectivism this one is a winner)

2000AD-PROG 1949- The comic book fear of anarchy

Artists and writers: Various
Publisher: Rebellion

Released: 23rd September 2015

Judge Death and Judge Dredd work together like liberals and conservatives, creation the illusion that you have freedom of choice, just as long as your choice is an acceptance of authority, and a lack of personal freedom and liberty. You can choose a controller, and that means that you are free. Both Death and Dredd are symbols of control, they block alternatives to mainstream status quo thinking, and channel you into a slaughterhouse of collectivised, state control.

Was it always so? Probably, but it’s really noticeable now. Dredd murders to uphold the law, and Death does exactly the same. Check out the following quotation:

‘I will teach them the virtues of order and discipline. The rule of law.’

That quote comes from Judge Death, but it could just have easily come from Dredd. In ‘Ghost Town- Part Two’ Dredd massacres dissenters to the rule of law with no feeling other than his need to maintain control over the population. He doesn’t mind killing people, its just part of the job.

In ‘Dreams of Deadworld-Death’ Judge Death shows his lieutenants who is boss, killing one before carrying out a massacre of his order following minions. This is the kind of thing that always happens when a dictator purges his own party of troublesome thugs that he no longer needs. The most famous recent example being Hitler’s purge of his own brown-shirt thugs (the 'Night of the long knives') shortly after he gained the footing his needed to control the population of Germany.

Judge Death murders so he can sit on a throne (as is shown on the excellent front cover of this comic book) whilst Dredd murders in order to serve and maintain the centralised state collective.

Looking at the differences between the two Judges is hugely illuminating, as it shines a spotlight on an assumption that is central to the ideology contained within western comic books. That assumption (an idea pushed to the idea of a cliché, but an idea that is constantly reinforced as truth through repetition) is that freedom in the west means not having a dictator.

We don’t have a dictator, so that must mean that we are free, right?

What is being pushed here is the idea that the collective tyranny of democracy (the rule of the majority, or two wolves and a sheep deciding what’s for dinner) is the best that humanity can hope for. It’s the idea that individuality must be consumed by the collective, that the collective is held together by law, and that it’s up to uniformed order followers to enforce that law, at the point of a gun.

This is the legitimisation of collectivisation, of centrally controlled tyranny, of a small group of people who know better than you, and so will tell you what to do, for your own good, of course, and if you don’t obey them, then it’s death or jail for you.

Oh, and by the way, don’t forget that you are free.

Judge Death then is a perfect villain as he reinforces the idea that the only thing that we need to fear is the dictator, and that the collectivised tyranny of Judge Dredd is how things should be, because after all, we don’t want to fall into chaos or ANARCHY, do we?

‘Only the zero-tolerance Judges- empowered to dispense instant justice- can stop total ANARCHY.’

That line always appears in the ‘In This Prog’ section of 2000AD, and it’s very telling, giving the reader a social assumption, an agreed upon lie, in order to frame what happens within the narrative of the Judge Dredd strip. The lie is that anarchy equates to chaos and murder, and that without order following murderers in uniform then it will be a big free for all with babies being murdered in the streets.

That is the assumption, and it’s an assumption that comes from the mindset of an indoctrinated, fearful slave to the state. It’s an assumption that hates humanity, and assumes the very worse of people. It is an assumption that is reinforced, without evidence, that the only way to stop us murdering each other in the streets is for us to all live in a giant prison state, for our own good, of course.

Fear of anarchy, and a willingness to accept the collectivised tyranny of the state is an ideology that runs like a stick of rock through 95% of western comic books. It is an ideology that assures the slave to the state that the system s/he has been born into is legitimate. It backs up a machine of violent coercion a machine that has made the world the boiling Hellhole that it is today.

The idea that the only thing to fear is a crazy dictator, is a straw-man argument. It’s a socially programmed assumption that works because comic book writers push it without even realising what they are pushing. They know somewhere deep within their souls that a centralised, collectivised system of violent coercion is morally wrong, but they justify it by looking at the alternatives. A lack of courage, and imagination gives them only two: 1- A villainous dictator. 2- People being murdered in the streets. That’s Judge Death, and that’s Judge Dredd. Both follow the law, both wear uniforms, both exist to control you. One of them is a cartoon villain, and the other is an agent of the collectivised state.

Judge Death makes you fear dictatorships, and Judge Dredd makes you fear anarchy, or the lack of a centralised control system. The two fictional characters represent false real-world choices, like the red and blue parties, keeping you fearful, dependant, and safely imprisoned within the collectivised neo-liberal corporate/state reservation.

I’ve already written enough this week, so I’ll leave it there, and no, this is not a typical comic book review, and it isn’t supposed to be. I’m not being paid to knock out a boring review, so I’ll talk about what I want to talk about. This week I wanted to talk about the similarities between Death and Dredd, and how they are used to reinforce the current system of collectivised state tyranny in which we all live under in the west. I think that I managed to say something worthwhile. I think that what I said was more interesting than a review about panels, colouring and personalities. Thanks for reading it, be nice to each other, and have a great comic book reading week.

Social Justice (Video): A poem about individualism

Marvel’s Civil War: The Death of the Superhero and Rise of Comic Book Collectivism

Article by: Mark.A Pritchard (aka Rorshach1004/SwindonPoet)
Date: 11th September 2015



‘The Iron has spent the last six years isolating us from the rest of the world. They have embargoed our trading partners. Threatened those who help us. Spread lies.’ (Captain America in Civil War #4-2015)

Do American (and western) comic book ‘geek’ readers see the irony in that statement?

The words come from the mouth of Captain America, the ultimate American comic book hero, and what he is describing (and decrying) is US foreign policy since the end of WW2. He is outlining a deliberate strategy of economic isolation/suffocation deliberately designed to achieve hegemony and domination over an entire planet. It is a policy that has led to the deaths of millions of innocent people who never had a chance, people who died because of the deliberate policies coming from western democracies.

The original Civil War, by Mark Millar.

That is the policy of the west. That is the policy of the ‘heroes.’

Will readers see the statement as a critique of what America actually is? Will they see the reality behind the statement, or will it just be another piece of comic book story-telling that is read, forgotten, and seen as play-time fun and games that has nothing whatsoever to do with the real world?

My guess, and it’s just a guess, is that readers will read it as part of the story in Civil War #4, and will leave it at that. Captain America has given a speech that could easily have come out of the mouth of Saddam Hussain, or Muammar Gaddafi, or Bashar al-Assad, or Vladimir Putin. It’s a speech that could have been given by any leader that has seen his country targeted for destruction by western ‘democratic’ neo-liberal corporate hegemony.

What would happen if readers carefully analysed the statement made by Captain America, and looked at what has happened in the real world over the past few decades? How would they see the US as a force for good in the world? They would be forced to re-evaluate, and to re-consider what they personally are doing in the world, how they, through paying their taxes, and supporting the state, are complicit in what has happened, what is happening and what it going to happen next.

What is going to happen next is war, a big war waged against Iran and Russia, the last two holdouts against western imperialism. It will be called World War 3, and it will be the last war. The end result will be a nuclear holocaust, a tiny population of world-controllers, and a slave population of five hundred million people.

Comic book readers need to put down the comic books, look at recent world history, and decide whether or not they want to go along with the unfolding agenda. They do have a choice; they don’t have to go along with it. They have a voice, and they can use it, if they want to.

The new 'Civil War' by Charles Soule.

This is not silly conspiracy stuff, it’s recent world history, and it’s happening right now as I type these words. Writer Charles Soule puts his words of truth into the mouth of Captain America at the beginning of Civil War #4, but then the book unfolds in a convoluted, contradictory fashion that makes pretty much no sense whatsoever, thus diminishing the impact of the opening statement. However, the statement is made, and it cannot be unmade. It’s truth in a genre that sees very little truth at all, and now it’s up to us to decide whether or not we want to face that truth, or just go back to reading comic books as usual.

US superhero comic books don’t do heroes anymore. Tony Stark won the original Marvel Comics Civil war, and the superheroes became agents of the state. Captain America, the symbol of individualism, of freedom from state control (Yes, I know it’s ironic, but perhaps he’s just represented the old America?), surrendered, and was murdered. Mark Millar wrote that ending in 2007. It was the correct ending to write.

Contemporary comic book heroes are collectivists, controlled by the state, working for the state. The era of individualism died with the death of Captain America in the original Civil War. What has followed since has been painful to watch, with Marvel and DC comics celebrating collectivised, order following, ‘heroes’ and the death of individualism and true heroism. The independent, moral, liberty minded heroes have become unthinking soldiers. I'm sorry, but soldiers are not heroes, no matter what the propaganda coming out of the state tries to tell you. Soldiers follow orders. Right and wrong does not figure in their actions, morality does not figure in their actions, they do what they are told to do, no questions asked, see Bradley Manning for more details.

Marvel’s original Civil War story-arc and this new extension of the original story (by Charles Soule) reveals a brutal truth about the death of individualism in post 9/11 America. That truth might be clouded and hidden within a jumble of plot twists, super-powered personality issues and contradictions, but the truth is there, and is something that we all need to understand.

Art from Yu, on the new Civil War #4

As the US Empire continues to crumble and morph into a one-world government, at least we all know how it happened, and who was responsible. The coming New World Order was made possible by the economic strangulation of sovereign states, a siege policy that ends in war or capitulation. All countries that have refused to be dictated to by US led corporate, neo-liberal hegemony have been under economic siege for decades, and those still holding out are being targeted by western intelligence agencies, NGO’s, mercenaries and the western backed lunatic army known as the Islamic state.

The policy of total, global domination is at the centre of western, neo-liberal political consensus. When you vote, you vote for war. All parties belong to the cult of neo-liberalism; your only choice is between personalities, not policy differences. Corporate lebensraum has made the world what it is today. Do you like it?

I personally am not a fan.

So who is to blame? It’s not the politicians or the liars on the television. They are there because we allow them to be there. We built their houses. We bred children to be used as their slaves, and now our children have guns, and the guns are turned at us.

We are to blame.

We built neo-liberalism.

We built it, brick by brick, vote by vote, order followed, after order followed. We refused to look as we slaved away at its construction, but we built it. It is our fault. The world is the way it is today because we had free choice, and we decided to give away our freedoms to the illusion of authority, because men and women calling themselves ‘Government’ ordered, and we chose to obey them.

Iron Man, a symbol of collectivism over individualism.

We shout and scream at the individual pawns, yet we play their game, we vote, we get what we deserve, we are willing dupes, and we have allowed ourselves to be used, abused, divided and killed. The world could be a beautiful place of free choice, free association, individualism and self-determination, but we didn’t want that. Instead, we chose collectivism, and if we continue to be spectators in our own lives then what happens next will be exactly what we all deserve.

Hoping for change will not change a thing, action is what is needed.

Real life heroes are individuals, people who do things not for ideology, reward or status, but because it’s the right thing to do. Change comes from action, from doing something, not hoping for somebody else to do it for you. Government kills all ideals of action and individualism and replaces it with the all-encompassing collective merged prison identity of the state.

We are living during a time of neo-liberal, cross-party consensus tyranny. We can change it, if we want to, but here’s my opinion on the matter. I think that some people would rather read comic books and go along with it, and some people would rather join it, than fight it.

A lot of people have become lazy, immoral, complacent, greedy and selfish. A lot of people are scared, or apathetic, or perhaps they are just confused? Learnt helplessness is a powerful weapon of the neoliberal corporate elites, and it’s pumped out 24/7 from their mainstream media indoctrination centres masquerading as ‘news.’  The message is to comply and that all resistance to neo-liberalism is futile. You are small, you cannot do anything, stand-down, comply, do what you are told.

Complicity, fear, apathy and confusion together with learnt helplessness imprison the programmed, collectivised masses and the end result is millions of people complying with their own enslavement and serving the system that imprisons them all.

Choose Cap, choose individualism over collectivism.

Individualism has become a bad word. It is being discouraged, because it is the individual that will destroy the collectivised state. We need to stand up, as individuals, not as a group. We need to re-learn how to say NO, and to do things for ourselves. That’s what I think. That’s what I think about the world today.

Comic books reflect reality, and the reality is that we have become collectivised slaves to state authority. Tony won, collectivism won. Cap lost, individualism lost. The world we live in today, the western world, the comic book world, it’s a defeated world. But is it over? Oh no, not yet.

I’m a scrappy bloke, and I’m up for a comeback fight. Cap died, but death is temporary in comic books, and here’s a truth, it’s temporary in the real world as well.

We die, sure, but the soul cannot die. The soul is immortal. The body dies, but we return, the fight does not end, it goes on, we live, learn, balls things up, but it’s never over.

Neo-liberal collectivist ideology might be in the ascendant right now, but that doesn’t mean that you have to go along with it.  I’m up for a fight. I’m up for saying no, and I’m ready to kick neo-liberal collectivist slave ideology in the balls. I’m not a superhero, but I’m not a slave either. I’m an individual, and individualism is the silver bullet that will kill the murderous ideology of neo-liberal state collectivism.

My blog is small, and it might only be read by a handful of people, but that won’t stop me from saying what needs to be said, and from talking about what is happening in the world today. Comic books reflect cultural consensus, but cultural consensus changes. We are living during a time of rising state collectivism, a time of war, lies and propaganda, but it doesn’t always have to be like that.  We can turn things around, but the only way that we are going to get out of our self-dug pit of collectivism is to realise that we are standing in a hole in the first place.

Aphotic is a call to join the Dark Collective where five songs of dense, sludgy, snarling, guttural, melodic, slow, terrible beauty lead you through a life spent lost in sweet, honey dripped poison.

Opening track ‘Permanent Grey’ introduces the Phantom Piper, the Happy Ghost of the Dark Collective. He takes your hand and welcomes you into the land of swamp thick dust and dreams where absinthe slick, hypnotic, seductive groves of sweet, sweet poison deliciously choke the air.

It’s dense here, very dense, the fog is almost impregnable, but the poison is so honey sweet, and it leads you through the darkness, seducing you into an awakened slumber. It feels safe here, so warm, so carefree, and you allow yourself to follow, to follow, to follow, and to be lost within the dream. You are entranced now, and the Piper no longer has to take you by the hand. You want to follow, you need to follow, and he leads you laughing, dancing, and skipping merrily into the Dark Collective.

‘Daylight’ shows the dawn, the light of truth. You wake, startled by the Sun, your eyes squint, but the poison honey, it’s still there, and you turn from the aggressive solar blast of the day, and back to the sweet coo of the Piper. You walk onwards, following, the trance still compels, and the journey continues.

Onto ‘Proclamation’ where the energy of the Sun is dampened, the fog descends, and the march onwards continues. Light struggles to emerge now. Energy is sapped, heads are low, and it’s turning funereal.

The Piper no longer laughs, no longer plays, no longer skips, his flute is a weapon now, he waves his followers on, threateningly, you’ve gone too far, and to stop would be to be lost in the dark, vulnerable to what hides in the fog. You follow not because of the sweetness in the air, but because fear compels, because you no longer have a choice. The time for seduction has passed. The bride is in chains now, and all that is left is the onwards, inevitable march of time.

The eternal child that is within begins to cry. Why is the Piper not smiling anymore? He used to dance, he used to play, he used to sing, but now all he does is point, and order, and scowl. You are scared. The Dark Collective no longer sings in sweet, hypnotic joy. They look at the ground. Together, individualism has been defeated. Low guttural sounds of terror, self- pity, surrender and despair has become their discordant song now. They sing it alone, walking side by side, but strangers all.

The Piper looks your way, reads your mind, and he smiles. You see his teeth now, and they are black stumps, worms crawl through the decay, sweetness has rotten away what once was pure, sweetness has destroyed the purity that came from God. The light of the Sun was there, offered, but rejected. Replaced by sweetness, you devil, the self-inflicted rot of prosperity, of a dulled, idle decadent complacency, sweet hypnotic rot, you will kill us all.

‘Aphotic’ is the end of life, the end of all hope. It’s a grinding halt, a STOP sign. You stare at the nothingness, the damp soil, lines and lines of defeated lost souls. You see shovels, and the Piper barks his last words. They are orders, and you must obey. Hands grasp handles, digging, digging, and digging. The air still fogged, sweetened not with honey, but with sod, the mud of the ground, from dust we became, from dust we shall return, wetted with damp soil, eaten by worms, we prepare our future, entranced by sweetness, defeated by prosperity, we dig our own eternities.

‘Drag Me to My Grave’ is the final plea, not for mercy, but for the end, for the nothingness that is to come. A life spent following the Piper, from the seduction of our senses, chasing the sweetness, joining the Dark Collective. We have allowed ourselves to be marched to the Graveyard, to the mud, to the shovel. Why do we chose to be lost in the fog, to follow the sweet, poison embrace of the Dark Collective, to lose ourselves, to stumble into fear, into routine, and so quickly into decay? We dig our own graves, and hypnotically, silently, jump into forever.

Captain America 3- Civil War: The Choice is Between Collectivism & Human Emancipation

Article by: Mark. A Pritchard (aka Rorshach1004)
Date: 28th August 2015


The original Civil War arc in Marvel comics (written by Mark Millar) was all about the registration of superheroes. Captain America was against registration. Iron Man was for it. Cap thought it was anti-freedom. Tony Stark argued that it was needed in order to protect the people. It’s the old argument, fear versus freedom. We all know how that went in the real world (NSA, Patriot Act) don’t we?

In Marvel comics (SPOILER ALERT) it goes pretty much the same way. At the end of the Civil War Arc Captain America meekly surrenders and fear wins over liberty. It’s a terribly depressing ending, and is carried on in the new Civil War arc (by Charles Soule) that is part of the current Secret Wars event in Marvel comics. Quick note, get the book, it’s great.

So, in Marvel comics all of the superheroes must be registered with the government, and everything they do is monitored in order to 'keep them safe.’

In other words, it’s a soft tyranny, centrally controlled and enforced with a legal mandate over the use of coercive violence.

It’s France, it’s England, it’s America, and it’s every country in the west. All are enslaved underneath the loving, caring eyes of big brother government. And how do they get away with this soft tyranny, both in the comics and in the real world? Through the use of a heavily propagandised, relentlessly programmed ideology called ‘Democracy.’

Democracy has no regard for moral truth, individual liberty, or spiritual enlightenment. You vote for a master, and that’s exactly what you get. Democracy is about tyranny, order following, centralised control, collectivism, ‘sacrifice,' death for the system, joining a cult, becoming a brick in the wall, a cog in a machine of human enslavement. You better join it, or you will be punished for your failure to assimilate. I should know. That’s why I’m writing on my own personal blog, and not for some crappy comic book website.

Here’s a definition of the Borg from Star-Trek:

‘The Borg are a collection of species that have been turned into cybernetic organisms functioning as drones in a hive mind called the Collective, or the hive. The Borg's ultimate goal is "achieving perfection".

Here’s a quote from the hive-mind Borg themselves:

"We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borg_(Star_Trek)

Does all of that sound familiar? To me, it sounds like the neoliberal, mainstream corporate hive mindset of TODAY.

If you fail to comply with the neo-liberal corporate (mainly Marxist), politically correct consensus then you are a thought criminal, to be ostracised and accused of crimes against the perfected, progressive collective. This is particularly true when it comes to today’s comic books. These politically correct vehicles of neo-liberal corporate consensus feature narratives that explore every single facet of identity politics, but fail to touch any of the vital, underlying issues of our times.

But what about the racist, sexist, misogynist, homophobic, Islamaphobic right-wingers? Their very existence disproves what I am saying here, right? They might not dominate the comic book industry, but look at Fox news and all of the other racist, right wing bigots in the mainstream. If the media really were so ‘neo-liberal’ as I suggest, then Fox news and all of the other right wing ‘bigots’ wouldn’t exist, right?

No, not really. I’ll explain why.

Are all of the people that identify themselves as ‘right-wingers’ primarily concerned with freedom, liberty and individualism? No, of course they are not. Some are, but they are in the minority. The vast majority of those on the ‘right’ of the political spectrum just want to get what they can from government, just like the left. They want to use the power of the state to line their own pockets. As the state has a monopoly over violence it’s natural that both left and right wingers would be doing all they can to influence it, and make it serve their own needs. Makes sense, right?

The main difference between the left and right is that the left wants to suck off the state, whilst the right wants to pay-off the state. That means that they both have one thing in common, that being the state.

The left sees the state as Mommy, and the right sees the state as Daddy. Mommy protects, and Daddy corrects. Both are wrong. The state is neither Mom, nor Dad, it’s coercion through violence, always has been, always will be. The left knows this, and so does the right. They know, and that’s why they both support the violence that is the state, as long as that violence benefits them, of course.

In America (and the EU) today there is an alliance between the collective left, the collective right and the state. The state and large business collude, and as a business grows it can afford to pay off those working within the state apparatus with bribes/donations. As for the left, it needs the state like a baby bird needs his Mommy.

The state feeds the baby left, funnelling money into welfare handouts and their intellectually vacuous educational institutions that teach reliance on the state and victimhood to mythological oppressors like evil white men and patriarchy. The state is happy to do this as it keeps the left on the plantation, dependent upon its largesse and unable to identify the real oppressor, which of course is the state itself.

It’s not a particularly complicated equation. The collective right uses the state, and the collective left desperately needs the state. The distinction between the two collective ideologies of left and right blurs into one ideology, that being the ideology of collectivism under state control.

The end result is what we have today, a handful of large corporations paying off the state to ensure they maintain a monopoly over the world’s resources, a bankrupt intellectual class of leftist fools, and millions of people dependent upon state handouts. The mainstream political class in the west then is reduced to a choice between left and right collectivists, all reliant on the state, all supporters of the state. There are plenty of wannabe Iron Men, whilst Captain America doesn’t even get a mention.

Social control of the masses under collectivism is easy.  The status quo is maintained through a divide and conquer left versus right identity politics strategy relentlessly pushed from the aforementioned government sponsored collectivist left and their mainstream educational programs, and their right-wing ‘foes’ on channels like Fox news. This divide and conquer strategy is funded by the collectivist right in big business and the collectivist left in government. The young are taught all about identity politics, but know nothing about the big violent ape in the room.

That ape has a gun, and his name is Collectivist Statism.

Democracy in the west is exposed as a lie, and is nothing more than a combination of left and right collectivism that is funnelled through the violently coercive power of the centralised state. It is legitimised by something called ‘democracy,’ where the slaves on the plantation get to vote between left fist or right fist every few years or so.

This illusion of choice ensures that nothing of major importance ever changes. The only change allowable within this current system of soft tyranny is the race, gender and sexuality of the oppressor. This is exactly what Marvel and DC comics are all about in 2015, and that is why they say nothing and mean nothing.

The problem isn’t that businesses are getting too large and powerful. You should be rewarded for success, that takes hard work, that takes creativity and drive, and it moves the human species forward as your competitors struggle to keep up, and even overtake you in their hard work and innovation.

The problem is that the wealthy are the only people that can afford to pay for the violent protection of the state, a state that has given itself a monopoly over the use of legal violence. Their competitors cannot afford to pay, so they end up failing, not because they didn't work hard enough and not because they weren’t good or innovative enough, but because they couldn't pay for the violently coercive gorilla state that has been given a monopoly over the use of violence.

If you can pay the Gorilla, great, if you can’t, tough luck kid. The end result is a minority of obscenely rich individuals who own and control everything as they can afford to pay off the state, and the 99% of the rest of us fighting amongst ourselves for the scraps that fall from the table of the lucky few.

What we need to do is to level the playing field, and the only way to do that is to abandon the empty lie that is our programmed devotion to the violent, destructive, inhumane, coercive force of the state.

How do we do this?

We remove our consent. We stop voting, for anybody. We stop supporting violent coercion, and we stop supporting the monolithic oppressor that enslaves us all.

Our oppressor is collectivist statism, and we need to stop legitimising it through the ballot box. A violent revolution is not necessary. What is necessary is peaceful, non-compliance with our collective, Borg oppressors.

I can already hear the fear kicking in:

‘What will we do without the state?’

‘How will we protect ourselves from ISIS, or whatever new bogeyman that crops up in the msm next week?’

‘What about the roads?’

What about the children? Somebody think about the children?’

What we will do is evolve. We will talk it out, come to arrangements, make deals, choose for ourselves, defend ourselves, do things for ourselves. We are smart people, and we will adapt. Yes, the beginning will be difficult, but nothing worth having is ever easy.

The number one goal for all liberty minded individuals in the world today should be the abolition of the state. Let’s get rid of it, and let’s start living our lives as free human beings.

Before I finish off, and because this article is supposed to be about the new Captain America 3 ‘Civil War’ movie from Marvel, here’s a quick message for all of the comic book fans looking forward to that movie.

Let’s join Captain America and leave the Iron Men collectivists in the dustbin of history where they rightfully belong. The era of enslavement to the state is coming to an end. People are looking for something new, and that something new is a world where the power of the centralised state no longer dominates our lives. Don’t be scared, don’t give in to fear, as you already know, the only thing to fear, is fear itself.

Take care of each other, and spread the word. Change is inevitable, let’s make it real change this time. A new age is dawning. It’s an age free from the violently coercive power of the state, and free from the robotic, machine-man, destructive ideology of collectivism. It’s a world based on liberty, free choice, morality and respect for the individual. We can have this world, if we want it, but the first barrier that we need to clear is the barrier to human emancipation that is the modern, democratic, centralised, collectivised left/right state.
