Leviathan Must Be Stopped

“The Destruction of Leviathan” (1865), by Gustave Doré.

By Jeffrey A. Tucker
Feb. 3, 2023

Excerpts:
The last three years have been a demonstration project in tyranny. A mighty hegemon of government, media, tech corporations, and medical elite took charge of most nations, overriding the law, traditions, and civic rituals of billions of people. In the wake of this great experiment, all we see is catastrophe.

But that is not what they see. What they see is opportunity and a path to the future. That’s why there have been no apologies, no reforms, no coming to terms. There have been some mild utterances to the effect that not everything has gone as planned. Even those have been few and far between.

In the sweep of history, the last three years have been the most successful exercise of power on a global scale ever seen—if by successful we mean dramatically intensifying the wealth transfer from the peasants to elites, and control of a ruling class over the whole population, in the shortest possible amount of time.

In that, what began in disease panic has been more successful than any heresy hunt in the Middle Ages, sedition purge in the early modern era, or war in our times. It was brilliant and spectacularly effective. Therefore, of course, they will try it again, building from this episode to do ever more. Whatever victories we seem to have won—the rollback of vaccine mandates, the successful court cases, the opinion polls showing that people are angry—need to be understood in this light.

There will be more and they will be institutionalized. The World Health Organization is working right now to institutionalize and codify the worst of the lockdowns and mandates, adding global disease surveillance through technology. The world’s central banks are working on a digital currency for the sole purpose of controlling all finance and economics. The World Economic Forum is the open conspiracy to dismantle much of the progress of hundreds of years and replace it with a dystopian vision of universal despotism.
...
What can we learn from this? It suggests that if we intend to resist the Great Reset, we need a worldview that is deeply embedded in our hearts and souls, a structure of conviction that goes far deeper than merely making money and consuming. My humble suggestion, then, is that if you don’t have a faith, get one immediately. You need it to protect you against the lies of the secular elites, who are selling their own false version of religion.

Beyond that, we desperately need institutional reform and revolution. People talk about reforming the CDC, the Department of Education, the NIH, and the FBI. Forget it. These institutions need to be completely defunded and defanged. They are corrupt to the core, to the point that there is no hope. In addition, we need dramatic legal reform. The quarantine power needs to go away. We need reform of money to get it away from the hands of the Fed. We need education solely in the control of families and communities.

This is truly the emergency none of us wanted. But it is here now and we must act on it. If you doubt it, spend some time reflecting on the events of the last three years. It was not some accident and it was not some mistake. It was all a deliberate attempt to demoralize and dismantle everything you love. Seeing that and understanding that is the first step to inspire action to stop this push to end the good life as we know it.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

The most corrupt institutions cannot be reformed. When the rot is so bad there would be little or nothing left were it all excised, it is best to remove the organization and, whatever it is replaced by in part or in toto, needs to be seriously vetted. Not replacing it at all is an option.

Better to not have the organization than one stocked with scofflaws and traitors.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
