Twilight Of The Psychopaths
(March 2008)

"Our
society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're
being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be
put away as
 insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about
it." John Lennon, before his murder by CIA mind-control subject
Mark David Chapman
- .
- When Gandhi was asked his opinion of Western civilization he
said it would be a good idea. But that oft-cited quote, is
misleading, assuming as it does that civilization is an unmitigated
blessing.
- .
- Civilized people, we are told, live peacefully and cooperatively
with their fellows, sharing the necessary labour in order to obtain
the leisure to develop arts and sciences. And while that would be a
good idea, it is not a good description of what has been going on in
the so-called advanced cultures during the past 8,000 years.
- .
- Civilization, as we know it, is largely the creation of
psychopaths. All civilizations, our own included, have been based on
slavery and "warfare." Incidentally, the latter term is a euphemism
for mass murder.
- .
- The prevailing recipe for civilization is simple:
- .
- 1) Use lies and brainwashing to create an army of controlled,
systematic mass murderers;
- .
- 2) Use that army to enslave large numbers of people (i.e. seize
control of their labour power and its fruits);
- .
- 3) Use that slave labour power to improve the brainwashing
process (by using the economic surplus to employ scribes, priests,
and PR men). Then go back to step one and repeat the process.
- .
- Psychopaths have played a disproportionate role in the
development of civilization, because they are hard-wired to lie,
kill, injure, and generally inflict great suffering on other humans
without feeling any remorse. The inventor of civilization - the
first tribal chieftain who successfully brainwashed an army of
controlled mass murderers- was almost certainly a genetic
psychopath. Since that momentous discovery, psychopaths have enjoyed
a significant advantage over non- psychopaths in the struggle for
power in civilizational hierarchies - especially military
hierarchies.
- .
- Military institutions are tailor-made for psychopathic killers.
The 5% or so of human males who feel no remorse about killing their
fellow human beings make the best soldiers. And the 95% who are
extremely reluctant to kill make terrible soldiers - unless they are
brainwashed with highly sophisticated modern techniques that turn
them (temporarily it is hoped) into functional psychopaths.

In
On Killing, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman has re-written military history,
to highlight what other histories hide: The fact that military
science is less about strategy and technology, than about overcoming
the instinctive human reluctance to kill members of our own species.
The true "Revolution in Military Affairs" was not Donald Rumsfeld's
move to high-tech in 2001, but Brigadier Gen. S.L.A. Marshall's
discovery in the 1940s that only 15-20% of World War II soldiers
along the line of fire would use their weapons: "Those (80-85%) who
did not fire did not run or hide (in many cases they were willing to
risk great danger to rescue comrades, get ammunition, or run
messages), but they simply would not fire their weapons at the
enemy, even when faced with repeated waves of banzai charges"
(Grossman, p. 4). .
Marshall's discovery and subsequent research, proved that in all
previous wars, a tiny minority of soldiers - the 5% who are natural-
born psychopaths, and perhaps a few temporarily-insane imitators-did
almost all the killing. Normal men just went through the motions
and, if at all possible, refused to take the life of an enemy
soldier, even if that meant giving up their own. The implication:
Wars are ritualized mass murders by psychopaths of non-psychopaths.
(This cannot be good for humanity's genetic endowment!) - .
- Marshall's work, brought a Copernican revolution to military
science. In the past, everyone believed that the soldier willing to
kill for his country was the (heroic) norm, while one who refused to
fight was a (cowardly) aberration. The truth, as it turned out, was
that the normative soldier hailed from the psychopathic five
percent. The sane majority, would rather die than fight. .
- .
- The implication, too frightening for even the likes of Marshall
and Grossman to fully digest, was that the norms for soldiers'
behaviour in battle had been set by psychopaths. That meant that
psychopaths were in control of the military as an institution.
Worse, it meant that psychopaths were in control of society's
perception of military affairs. Evidently, psychopaths exercised an
enormous amount of power in seemingly sane, normal society.
- .
-
How
could that be? In Political Ponerology, Andrzej Lobaczewski explains
that clinical psychopaths enjoy advantages even in non- violent
competitions to climb the ranks of social hierarchies. Because they
can lie without remorse (and without the telltale physiological
stress that is measured by lie detector tests) psychopaths can
always say whatever is necessary to get what they want. In court,
for example, psychopaths can tell extreme bald-faced lies in a
plausible manner, while their sane opponents are handicapped by an
emotional predisposition to remain within hailing distance of the
truth. Too often, the judge or jury imagines that the truth must be
somewhere in the middle, and then issues decisions that benefit the
psychopath. As with judges and juries, so too with those charged
with decisions concerning who to promote and who not to promote in
corporate, military and governmental hierarchies. The result is that
all hierarchies inevitably become top-heavy with psychopaths.
- So-called conspiracy theorists, some of whom deserve the
pejorative connotation of that much-abused term, often imagine that
secret societies of Jews, Jesuits, bankers, communists,
Bilderbergers, Muslim extremists, papists, and so on, are secretly
controlling history, doing dastardly deeds, and/or threatening to
take over the world. As a leading "conspiracy theorist" according to
Wikipedia, I feel eminently qualified to offer an alternative
conspiracy theory which, like the alternative conspiracy theory of
9/11, is both simpler and more accurate than the prevailing wisdom:
The only conspiracy that matters is the conspiracy of the
psychopaths against the rest of us. ..
- .

Behind
the apparent insanity of contemporary history, is the actual
insanity of psychopaths fighting to preserve their disproportionate
power. And as that power grows ever-more-threatened, the psychopaths
grow ever-more-desperate. We are witnessing the apotheosis of the
overworld-the criminal syndicate or overlapping set of syndicates
that lurks above ordinary society and law just as the underworld
lurks below it. In 9/11 and the 9/11 wars, we are seeing the final
desperate power-grab or "endgame" (Alex Jones) of brutal, cunning
gangs of CIA drug-runners and President-killers; money-laundering
international bankers and their hit-men, economic and otherwise;
corrupt military contractors and gung-ho generals; corporate
predators and their political enablers; brainwashers and
mind-rapists euphemistically known as psy-ops experts and PR
specialists-in short, the whole sick crew of certifiable psychopaths
running our so- called civilization. And they are running scared. It
was their terror of losing control that they projected onto the rest
of us by blowing up the Twin Towers and inciting temporary
psychopathic terror-rage in the American public. .
- Why does the pathocracy fear it is losing control? Because it is
threatened by the spread of knowledge. The greatest fear of any
psychopath is of being found out. As George H. W. Bush said to
journalist Sarah McClendon, December 1992, "If the people knew what
we had done, they would chase us down the street and lynch us."
Given that Bush is reported to have participated in parties where
child prostitutes were sodomized and otherwise abused, among his
many other crimes, his statement to McClendon should be taken
seriously..

-
Psychopaths go through life knowing that they are
completely different from other people. They quickly learn to
hide their lack of empathy, while carefully studying others'
emotions so as to mimic normalcy while cold-bloodedly
manipulating the normals.
- .
- Today, thanks to new information technologies, we are on the
brink of unmasking the psychopaths and building a civilization of,
by and for the normal human being - a civilization without war, a
civilization based on truth, a civilization in which the saintly few
rather than the diabolical few would gravitate to positions of
power. We already have the knowledge necessary to diagnose
psychopathic personalities and keep them out of power. We have the
knowledge necessary to dismantle the institutions in which
psychopaths especially flourish - militaries, intelligence agencies,
large corporations, and secret societies. We simply need to
disseminate this knowledge, and the will to use it, as widely as
possible. .
- .
- Above all, we need to inform the public about how psychopaths
co-opt and corrupt normal human beings. One way they do this, is by
manipulating shame and denial - emotions foreign to psychopaths but
common and easily-induced among normals.
- .
- Consider how gangs and secret societies (psychopaths' guilds in
disguise) recruit new members. Some criminal gangs and satanist
covens demand that candidates for admission commit a murder to "earn
their stripes." Skull and Bones, the Yale-based secret society that
supplies the CIA with drug-runners, mind-rapists, child abusers and
professional killers, requires neophytes to lie naked in a coffin
and masturbate in front of older members while reciting the
candidate's entire sexual history. By forcing the neophyte to engage
in ritualized behaviour that would be horrendously shameful in
normal society, the psychopaths' guild destroys the candidate's
normal personality, assuming he had one in the first place, and
turns the individual into a co-opted, corrupt, degraded shadow of
his former self - a manufactured psychopath or psychopath's
apprentice.
- .
- This manipulation of shame has the added benefit of making
psychopathic organizations effectively invisible to normal society.
Despite easily available media reports, American voters in 2004
simply refused to see that the two major-party presidential
candidates had lain naked in a coffin masturbating in front of older Bonesmen in order to gain admission to Skull and Bones and thus
become members of the criminal overworld. Likewise, many Americans
have long refused to see that hawkish elements of the overworld,
operating through the CIA, had obviously been the murderers of JFK,
MLK, RFK, JFK Jr., Malcolm X, ChÈ, AllendÈ, Wellstone, Lumumba,
Aguilera, Diem, and countless other relatively non-psychopathic
leaders. They refuse to see the continuing murders of millions of
people around the world in what amounts to an American holocaust.
They refuse to see the evidence that the psychopaths' guilds running
America's most powerful institutions use the most horrific forms of
sexualized abuse imaginable to induce multiple-personality-disorder
in child victims, then use the resulting mind-control slaves as
disposable drug-runners, prostitutes, Manchurian candidates, and
even diplomatic envoys. And of course they refuse to see that 9/11
was a transparently obvious inside job, and that their own
psychopath- dominated military-intelligence apparatus is behind
almost every major terrorist outrage of recent decades.
- .
- All of this psychopathic behaviour at the top of the social
hierarchy is simply too shameful for ordinary people to see, so they
avert their gaze, just as wives of husbands who are sexually abusing
their children sometimes refuse to see what is happening in plain
view. If deep, deep denial were a river in Egypt, American citizens' wilful blindness would be more like the Marianas Trench.
- .
- But thanks to the power of the internet, people everywhere are
waking up. The only obvious non-psychopath among Republican
presidential candidates, Ron Paul, also happens to be the only
candidate in either party with significant grassroots support.
- .
- If "love" is embedded in the Revolution Ron Paul heralds, that
is because Dr. Paul - a kindly, soft-spoken physician who has
delivered more than 4,000 babies - implicitly recognizes that
government is the invention and tool of psychopaths, and therefore
must be strictly limited in scope and subjected to a rigorous system
of checks and balances, lest the psychopath's tools, fear and
hatred, replace love as the glue that binds society together.
- .
- The decline in militarism since World War II in advanced
countries, the spread of literacy and communications technology, and
the people's growing demands for a better life, together represent a
gathering force that terrifies the pathocracy, (those alternately
competing-then-cooperating gangs of psychopaths who have ruled
through lies, fear and intimidation since the dawn of so-called
civilization).
- .
- Since nuclear weapons have made war obsolete, the pathocracy is
terrified that its favourite social control mechanism - ritualized
mass slaughter - is increasingly unavailable. And if war was the
great human tragedy, the pathocrats' pathetic attempt at a war-
substitute - the transparently phoney "war on terror" - is repeating
it as sheerest farce.
