"The People."

by
Dean Gotcher

"For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world." 1 John 2:16

When socialist say "the people" they mean their "self," i.e., their "self interest" of the 'moment,' for they perceive their "self," i.e., their "feelings," i.e., their "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates as being the living personification of all "the people." Therefore any 'change' (law, i.e., command, rule, 'fact,' or 'truth') they make is made for their "self," i.e., their "self interest," telling "the people" it is made or being made for them, i.e., for their "good," to 'justify' their lusts. By 'discovering,' through dialogue "the peoples" "self interests" that are in harmony with their "self interests" of the 'moment,' they generalizes that their "felt needs," i.e., "self interests" of the 'moment' are those of "the people," i.e., all "the people," making laws that satisfy them, i.e., their "self interests" of the 'moment.' Everything they do is to guarantee that their "self interests" of the 'moment' are being met, in the name of "the people." It is what Karl Marx meant when he wrote:

"Laws must not fetter human life [inhibit or block, i.e., prevent him from satisfying his carnal desires of the 'moment']; but yield to it; they must change as the needs and capacities of the people [his carnal desires and abilities] change." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right)

"To enjoy the present reconciles us to the actual." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right')

In other words, "If I am not happy, you are not happy, so make me happy, so you can be happy." "The only reason you are not happy is that whatever you are doing, you are not doing it for me, i.e., for 'the people,' making 'the people,' i.e., me happy." "Building relationship" with others, based upon your and their "self interests" of the moment,' i.e., upon your and their carnal desires of the 'moment,' that the world stimulates sounds "good' in the 'moment,' but like prospecting for gold when/if you 'discover' gold with them you had better watch your back because their "self interests" of the 'moment,' i.e., having all the gold and spending it on their "self" and/or with their "friends" could cost you your life. It is how socialism, i.e., working for "the people" works. It is how socialists, i.e., those working for the "good" of "the people," i.e., their "self" think and act.

"It is not individualism [the child having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline his "self" in order to do right and not wrong according to the father's/Father's established commands, rules, facts, and truth, having to stand alone against "the group" when they are doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., "lusting"] that fulfills the individual, on the contrary it destroys him [makes him "neurotic"—caught between doing the father's/Father's will and doing his own will instead, when his will, i.e., his carnal desires ("lusts") of the 'moment' and his father's/Father's will, i.e., doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth are in conflict with one another]. Society ["human relationship based upon self interest," i.e., "building relationship" with others, based upon the child's carnal desires, i.e., one's "self interest," i.e., finding one's identity, i.e., "self" in the other, i.e., in "the group," i.e., in society] is the necessary framework through which freedom [from the father's/Father's authority] and individuality [to be "of and for self" and the world only] are made realities." (Karl Marx, in John Lewis, The Life and Teachings of Karl Marx)

For a socialist, your thinking about and/or doing whatever is "good" for them, i.e., "the people," i.e., that makes them, i.e., "the peoples" happy, "enjoying the present," i.e., that makes them, i.e., "the people" "feel good," i.e., like God is "good." Therefore, your thinking about and/or doing whatever is "bad" for them, i.e., "the people," that prevents them, i.e., "the people" from being happy, i.e., that makes them, i.e., "the people" "feel bad," i.e., "feel" guilty for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., for "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates is "bad." Their only solution, therefore, when you make them, i.e., "the people" "feel bad," i.e., "feel" guilty for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., for "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates is to convert, censor (silence), or remove you for making them, i.e., "the people" "feel bad," i.e., "feel" guilty for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., for "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates. Since only God is good, for socialists, whoever makes them, i.e., "the people" "feel good," i.e., like God is "good." Therefore, for socialists, "the people" must treat them like God because whatever they are doing for "the people," i.e., for them is "good"—making them "feel good," i.e., like God. This is why socialists focus upon "helping" the child become his "self," 'creating' an environment where the child can esteem his "self," i.e., 'justify' his "self," i.e., 'justify' his "lusting" after ("enjoying") the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates instead of "forcing" him to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline his "self" in order to do the father's/Father's will (which they equate to Fascism), thereby establishing the child's carnal nature (in the child's mind) over and therefore against the father's/Father's authority, i.e., having to do right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth (that are not in harmony, i.e., in concord, i.e., in consensus with his carnal nature). For example: the "educator" does not have to tell the students to question, challenge, defy, disregard, attack their parent's authority when the get home from school. All he has to do is create an environment where the students can dialogue their opinions, i.e., their love of pleasure and hate of restraint, i.e., dissatisfaction with their parents authority getting in the way of their "enjoying" the carnal desires of the 'moment' that the world stimulates, to a consensus, i.e., to a "feeling" of "oneness," affirming each others carnal nature, and they will automatically go home and challenge, question, defy, disregard, attack their parent's authority (if they were not doing that already)—but now with "the group's," i.e., "the people's" and the "educators" approval.

"The child, contrary to appearance, is the absolute, the rationality of the relationship; he is what is enduring and everlasting, the totality which produces itself once again as such [once he, i.e., the child's carnal nature is 'liberated' from the father's/Father's authority (which tells him that he is not "good," i.e., not God) to become as he was before the father's/Father's first command, rule, fact, or truth came into his life, "of and for self" and the world only, i.e., God in his mind—at least a "divine spark" (Gnosticism), i.e., one god amongst many gods become one]." (Georg Hegel, System of Ethical Life)

"Once the earthly family [with children having to humble and deny their "self" in order to do their father's will] is discovered to be the secret of the Holy family [with the Son, Jesus Christ, and all following Him having to humble and deny their "self" in order to do His Heavenly Father's will], the former [the earthly father's authority system, with children having to trust in (have faith in) and obey the father (their parents)] must then itself be destroyed [vernichtet, i.e., annihilated, i.e., negated] in theory and in practice [negated in the children's personal thoughts and social actions—resulting in their no longer "fellowshipping" with one another based upon the father's/Father's (their parents/God's) commands, rules, facts, and truth but, through dialogue, "building relationship" with one another based upon their common carnal desires, i.e., "self interests," i.e., "lusts" of the 'moment']." (Karl Marx, Feuerbach Thesis #4)

"In the dialogic relation of recognizing oneself in the other, they experience the common ground of their existence." (Jürgen Habermas, Knowledge & Human Interest, Chapter Three: The Idea of the Theory of Knowledge as Social Theory) It is in dialogue we discover our commonality with one another, i.e., our "self interest" in others, 'justifying' our "self," i.e., "the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life," i.e., what which we have in common with one another, i.e., that which is "of the world" only.

"Authoritarian submission [the children having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline their "self" in order to do the father's/Father's will] was conceived of as a very general attitude that would be evoked in relation to a variety of authority figures—parents, older people, leaders, supernatural power, and so forth." "God is conceived more directly after a parental image and thus as a source of support and as a guiding and sometimes punishing authority." "Submission to authority, desire for a strong leader, subservience of the individual to the state [parental authority, local control, Nationalism], and so forth, have so frequently and, as it seems to us, correctly, been set forth as important aspects of the Nazi creed that a search for correlates of prejudice had naturally to take these attitudes into account." "The power-relationship between the parents, the domination of the subject's family by the father or by the mother, and their relative dominance in specific areas of life also seemed of importance for our problem [how to 'liberate' children from parental authority, man from God's authority, mankind from Nationalism aka Fascism, etc., ]." (Theodor Adorno, The Authoritarian Personality)

"There are many stories of the conflict and tension that these new practices [students dialoguing their opinions to a consensus in the "group grade" classroom] are producing between parents and children." (David Krathwohl, Benjamin S. Bloom, Taxonomy of Educational Objectives Book 2: Affective Domain) All "educators" are certified and schools accredited today based upon their use of what are called "Bloom's Taxonomies" (as their curriculum) in the classroom—grounding "education," i.e., the students learning experience upon their carnal nature (the affective domain) over and therefore against their parent's authority (doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth).

Socialism beings with the child's carnal nature in us, i.e., with our "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates, hating restraint, i.e., hating whoever gets in the way of us "enjoying" the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates. Therefore, the father's/Father's authority, that requires us to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline our "self" in order to do right and not wrong according to the father's/Father's established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., that gets in the way of the child's carnal nature in us, must be removed (negated) if we are to become our "self," i.e., "good," i.e., God in our eyes. Anytime you are required to be "positive" and not "negative" you are being "encouraged" to "negate the negative" (called "the negation of negation"), i.e., to negate the father's/Father's authority in you, i.e., the guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning in you in order for the child's carnal nature in you, i.e., that which is "positive" to have its way. Since, in dialogue there is no father's/Father's authority, i.e., no having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline your "self" in order to do right and not wrong according to the father's/Father's established commands, rules, facts, and truth, only the child's carnal nature, i.e., approaching pleasure, i.e., that which is "good," and avoiding pain, i.e., that which is "bad"—which includes missing out on pleasure—dialogue (which supports the child's carnal nature, i.e., approaching pleasure and avoiding pain) has replaced discussion (which supports the father's/Father's authority, i.e., doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth) as the means of communication, effectively negating the father's/Father's authority and the guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning in the process—which the father's/Father's authority engenders. In dialogue there is no absolute wrong, only right and doing things "better," whereas in discussion there is right and "wrong," with a concern for doing things right and not wrong. In dialogue, which is informal, you are simply remediated, encouraged to do things right when you do "badly," so you can do "better" the next time, whereas in discussion, which is formal, you are corrected, reproved, rebuked, i.e., chastened when you do wrong, so you won't do wrong the next time (if there is a next time, i..e, you are not fired). In dialogue you can make wrong, i.e., the child's carnal nature "right," negating right, i.e., the father's/Father's authority, resulting in you "feeling good" about your "self" when you are wrong—allowing you to do wrong, disobey, sin without having a guilty conscience, i.e., with impunity (in this life). No longer teaching children to do right and not wrong no matter the personal cost the emphasis is upon them having a "better" life—thus the marriage vow is not longer "for better or for worse" but "until someone better comes along."

"There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." Proverbs 16:25

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8, 9

A socialist 'reasons' from the premise that he is "good," i.e., God, or can become "good," i.e. can become God by doing "good" works. When he receives praise from others for his "good works" he perceives his "self" as being "good," i.e., God in his eyes. The socialist's thesis is: pleasure (his and others "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates) is the standard for "good." When he confronts antithesis, i.e., someone who does not recognize and/or treat him as God, i.e., as being "good," he seeks after and finds others, who, like him want to be seen and/or treated as God, i.e., "good" in their carnal nature, "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates. Gaining their affirmation—via the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus process, i.e., the dialectic process—he is able to achieve synthesis, where he, i.e., "the people" can now remove anyone who does not see and/or treat him, i.e., "the people" as God—'justifying' his, i.e., "the people" doing evil, i.e., wicked, i.e., abominable things to them without having a guilty conscience.

"Jurisprudence of terror takes two forms; loosely defined rules which produces unpredictable law, and spontaneous changes in rules to best suit the state [those in power]." (R. W. Makepeace and Croom Helm, Marxist Ideology and Soviet Criminal Law)

He therefore is able to us "the people" for his own "self interest," with their recognition, support, defence, praise, and worship—worshiping him, i.e., their "self" as God—being able to remove anyone who gets in his, i.e., "the peoples" way, with their (at least in his mind) approval. "As above, so below." Socialism is a witches brew because the only way you can be or become God is to remove God, who gets in the way of you being or becoming God, i.e., who tells you that you are not God, i.e., that you are not "good."

"The heart is deceitful above all things [deceived—thinking pleasure is the standard for "good" instead of doing the father's/Father's will, i.e., "lusting" (chasing) after the things of the world instead of setting aside its carnal desires of the 'moment,' i.e., humbling, denying, dying to, controlling, disciplining its "self" in order (as in "old" world order) to do right and not wrong according the father's/Father's established commands, rules, facts, and truth, having pleasure in doing the father's/Father's will, taking pleasure in doing its will instead—being easily deceived], and desperately wicked [hating the father's/Father's authority that "gets in the way," i.e. that prevents, i.e., inhibits or blocks it from enjoying (coveting after) the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates]: who can know it?" Jeremiah 17:9 We can not see ("know") that our heart is "desperately wicked" (full of hate) because our love of pleasure, i.e., "self" is standing in the way, 'justifying' our hate.

"And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God." Luke 16:15

Socialists do not have the final solution to a crisis or problem, they only have the process of dialoguing opinions to a consensus, making sure that their carnal nature, i.e., their love of pleasure and hate of restraint, i.e., their "self interest" is always 'justified' in their eyes, i.e., in the eyes of "the people."

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." 2 Timothy 4:3, 4

Facilitators of 'change,' i.e., psychologists, i.e., behavioral "scientists," i.e., "group psychotherapists," i.e., Marxists (Transformational Marxists)—all being the same in method or formula—are using the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus (affirmation) process, i.e., dialectic 'reasoning' ('reasoning' from/through the student's "feelings" of the 'moment,' i.e., their love pleasures and their hate of restraint, in the "light" of their desire for group approval and fear of group rejection) in the "group grade," "safe zone/space/place," "Don't be negative, be positive," soviet style, brainwashing (washing the father's/Father's authority from the child's thoughts and actions, i.e., "theory and practice," negating their having a guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning in the process—called "the negation of negation," since the father's/Father's authority, and the guilty conscience which it engenders, is negative to the child's carnal nature), inductive 'reasoning' ('reasoning' from/through the students "feelings," i.e., their "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment'—dopamine emancipation—which the world stimulates, i.e., their "self interest," i.e., their "sense experience," selecting "appropriate information"—excluding, ignoring, or resisting, i.e., rejecting any information, i.e., established command, rule, fact, or truth that gets in the way of their desired outcome—in determining right from wrong behavior), "Bloom's Taxonomy," "affective domain," French Revolution (Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité) classroom "environment" in order (as in "new" world order) to 'liberate' children from parental authority, i.e., from the father's/Father's authority system (the Patriarchal Paradigm)—seducing, deceiving, and manipulating them as chickens, rats, and dogs, i.e., treating them as natural resource ("human-ist resource") in order to convert them into 'liberals,' socialists, globalists, so they, 'justifying' their "self" can do wrong, disobey, sin with impunity.

"Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken." Jeremiah 6:16, 17

Home schooling material, co-ops, conferences, etc., are joining in the same praxis, fulfilling Immanuel Kant's as well as Georg Hegel's, Karl Marx's, and Sigmund Freud's agenda of using the pattern or method of Genesis 3:1-6, i.e., "self" 'justification,' i.e., dialectic (dialogue) 'reasoning," i.e., 'reasoning' from/through your "feelings," i.e., your carnal desires of the 'moment' which are being stimulated by the world (including your desire for approval from others, with them affirming your carnal desires) in order to negate Hebrews 12:5-11, i.e., the father's/Father's authority, i.e., having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline your "self" in order to do the father's/Father's will, negating Romans 7:14-25, i.e., your having a guilty conscience when you do wrong, disobey, sin, thereby negating your having to repent before the father/Father for your doing wrong, disobedience, sins—which is the real agenda.

"And for this cause [because men, as "children of disobedience," 'justify' their "self," i.e., 'justify' their love of "self" and the world, i.e., their love of the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' (dopamine emancipation) which the world stimulates over and therefore against the Father's authority] God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie [that pleasure is the standard for "good" instead of doing the Father's will]: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth [in the Father and in His Son, Jesus Christ], but had pleasure in unrighteousness [in their "self" and the pleasures of the 'moment,' which the world stimulates]." 2 Thessalonians 2:11, 12
