Very much the case in the UK. It used to be that you could do anything unless it was explicitly prohibited. Now veering to the continental you can’t do anything unless we allow it.

Guilty unless proven innovent.

That’s David Lammy’s view, certainly

And is essentially criminal itself.

I see your point. But concretely, this is a judiciary problem. The police, the armed forces, etc, are literally state automatons that do its bidding without a second thought. They just do what they’re told: When the government tells them to maul and abuse citizens for not wearing masks, they’ll do it because it is the law. When the government tells them to release convicted rapists, they do it because it is the law. When they flipped the switch on covid, the same cops would have had me disfigured became normal again. This is a symptom of a deep serious problem about the very quality of the humans of today. But in the immediate term, if we manage to break free from the tyranny of judges, the situation will improve. We’ll still have to deal with that problem I mentioned, but one thing at a time.

There is no historical evidence against the argument that all government eventually devolves into tyranny. The tyranny state is just one stage in the cycle of government and we'd be fools to actively encourage it.

The government first needs to be erased - then it needs to be reconstituted from members of society with something at stake in its future, who aren’t brainwashed by globohomo, and THEY need to reintroduce the death penalty first for all the outgoing politicians, then for their deep state apparatchiks, then for anyone else disruptive of the reconstituted society who doesn’t voluntarily leave whilst we’re chopping the heads off A and B. That’s a lot of blood, I know. But it’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.

Yes, you’re right tyranny is a part of the cycle, and we shouldn’t encourage it. But I ask, have we ever been in a time where the world was so upside that self defense has become criminalized, other than today ?

with your mindset you need one of these

Self-defense is often criminalized, for lesser residents. There's a reason why I have blue eyes, after all. The government respecting your natural rights is always and everywhere a reflection of your status.

I did not quite understand the blue eyes part.

Maybe Gilbert is new here 😅

My perspective is always Eurocentric. And throughout the history of Western Europe for as long as we have known, it was never a lawless tyranny, and the natural rights of people were more or less respected, and that become more the case after the spread of Christianity. Not to say there weren’t abuses, but they were isolated incidents back in the day. And when it was tyrannical during those couple of times, there was a rule and a system to that tyranny. Not to undermine the tyrannical aspect of these examples, but these tyrannies were natural, in the sense that they arose spontaneously to satisfy the appetite of the masses. As bad as it was, there was not a a big divide between the rulers and the ruled. Not as much as today. Today, there’s almost a complete disconnect between the ruling class and the rest. It baffles me how they’re still in power. I know this sounds naive, but consider that back in the day, kings lost their heads for much less than the excesses of today’s rulers

Everyone's heads were worth less, back then. People didn't live as long and their lives were generally more violent. Also, you couldn't vote out a king. You _had_ to chop his head off, to change the government.

The way I see it, you _got_ to chop off the king’s head and things would change. Radical, tragic, but sometimes necessary or inevitable. Now, even voting someone in or out of power doesn’t change anything that counts.

Ironically, I’m attending right now a history conference about the French Revolution given by Emmanuel de Waresquiel. I would love to recommend his work, but sadly it’s not translated to English.

Also right now, the responsibility is spread across many heads many of which we don’t even know about.

Yeah, we're ruled by a bureaucracy. Can't vote them out.

Because the person at the top doesn't actually run things.

A bureaucracy and a technocracy that treats everyone outside their club with contempt. Ursula von der Leyen is only the tip of the iceberg.
