Liberal Foreign Policy Today

The foreign policy of America and the West after World War Two is amazing to behold. From the Korean War, to the Vietnamese War, to the Kuwaiti Gulf War, to the Iraqi and Afghani Wars, and otherwise, Westerners, and especially Americans, love to lecture the world about the goodness and greatness of their "system". They love to pontificate to the communists, Moslems, and Third Worlders about the values and principles of supposedly glorious Western Civilization and Western liberal philosophy. But the fact is, Americans and Westerners promote such ideals as universal values, rationality, individualism, capitalism, free enterprise, free trade, free speech, the rights of man, and individual liberty while actually knowing very little about them.

Ultimately, America and the West are mostly pro-democracy, pro-peace, pro-stability, pro-political correctness, and pro-multiculturalism -- not pro-liberalism. Like the savages and barbarians above, America and the West still love the illiberal beliefs and values of religion, self-sacrifice, and collectivism. Reason and science, individualism and self-interest, and freedom and justice in the serious senses of the terms are little known and liked in America and the West. What is needed in the world today -- both inside and outside Western Civilization -- is a truly liberal philosophical, cultural, and political revolution. 

The sad, obvious truth is that the savage, barbarian, criminal, tyrannical, disgusting, insectoid commies, Muzzies, and Turd Worldies are not the main problems and losers on the planet today. It's the phony, failed, self-hating, self-destroying, would-be Western liberals. And it's the phony, failed, incompetent, bozo, cutting-edge Objectivists and libertarians too.

My Fellow Man

People today are such liars, cowards, hypocrites, weaklings, and lowlifes. Their sliminess is legendary. People seem to know the difference between good and evil -- they just vastly prefer to choose evil.

As a rule, when people make their moral choices this generally results in them hurting themselves and their fellow man considerably. But there's little logic to their parade of destructive thoughts, words, and deeds. The simple reality seems to be: This is the Planet of the Apes. It's also Planet Scum and Planet Hell.

When born, kids seem to start off quite virtuously. They're highly rational, thoughtful, healthy, and proper in their approach to the universe and reality. They tend to work hard and smart, progressing rapidly in knowledge and personal power. 

Juvenile humans are also healthily self-interested and quite dedicated to their own personal greatness and happiness. But they're generally quite empathetic to, and cooperative with, their fellow man as well. And they're commonly sociable and friendly. Young children rarely seek to rob or beat their fellows, especially when taught early in life that this is wrong. These kids, when around age five or so, are usually sweethearts to be around.

But illiberal society evidently corrupts them quickly and badly. Their world is just so irrational and nonsensical! So unjust and untrue.

These days the youngsters are told right away that a mysterious "god" exists and that somehow "self-sacrifice" -- as in self-destruction, martyrdom, and suicide -- is morally good. The raw falsity and evil of these two claims is amazing to behold. Employing them, you just can't create a more fraudulent and depraved society.

No wonder people today are such liars, cowards, hypocrites, weaklings, and lowlifes! 

The Monkey Law

Ockham's Razor says the simplest explanation is the one most likely to be true. Or as the Encyclopedia Britannica puts it: "of two competing theories, the simpler explanation of an entity is to be preferred."

The Monkey Law says that for any given inexplicable or ugly human phenomenon, pretty much the most crude, petty, tawdry, nasty, disgusting, wretched, contemptible, "human" explanation is the one most likely to be true.

Thus if a wife bad-raps her husband, it's probably not because he's a truly low or awful person, but rather because he recently forgot their anniversary, or cheated on her, or now wants a divorce. If an employee bad-raps his boss, it's quite likely because the boss recently insulted, demoted, or fired the employee. If someone says he "hates" the local sports team, it's probably possibly because they just lost a big game to him. If a datable girl is described as "having a really good personality," everyone knows she's probably fairly ugly.

To get it most right, all these Monkey Law  judgments regarding causation can and should be performed rather quickly.

The key point to the Monkey Rule or Law is: If you can't figure out why someone is suddenly saying or doing something strange or bad, ask yourself: What is the lowest, worst, and most monkey-like possible motivation for his words or behavior? That's probably it!

Why is a sports competitor praising his rival? Not likely because the rival is honestly good or truly deserving. It's probably because the competitor wants to butter him up so he doesn't try as hard, or because the first guys knows he's superior and thus feels no real rivalry with him, or because the two recently had dinner together, or because they both went to the same wild party and had sex with the same red-hot girl. Why is writer X publicly praising writer Y? Quite possibly not based on merit or genuine admiration, but because they're intellectual allies or personal friends. Why did that young guy just completely shave his head? No to be stylish and hip, but very likely because he's going prematurely bald. Why does person A seem to believe in ridiculous, jackass, religion B? Probably not due to rational calculation of truth but rather because his friends and relatives influenced him to believe or pretend thus. 

If someone insistently and annoyingly defends the rights of blacks, women, gays, transgenders, Jews, left-handers, blue-eyed folks, chiropractors, or fortune-tellers, it probably isn't because he's a man of principle who loves liberty and rights-protection for all, but rather because openly or secretly he is black, female, gay, transgender, Jewish, etc. If someone brags, or "accidentally" admits, that he likes Shakespeare, Masterpiece Theatre, classical music, opera, ballet, foreign films, etc. he probably really doesn't -- he just wants to look personally intellligent, educated, sophisticated, debonair, profound, complex, and subtle. But none of these evaluations is likely true of this brainless, soulless monkey -- this shallow dolt, ignoramus, and baboon.

 

The Monkey Law is a cynical, pessimistic, and crude way to look at humanity, and their motivations and underlying causes. But it's also a useful, perceptive, and generally true way.

A Special Message to My Friends

I’ve been severely mistreated and abused by my fellow man – if you people even are my fellow man, and not some hideous alien demons – for all of my life. 

This is why I almost entirely refuse to help, guide, uplift, or liberate you from your current philosophical horror and wretchedness. This is why I almost completely decline to teach you the philosophy, culture, ethics, politics, spirituality, lifestyle, and attitude of up-wing liberalism. This is why I virtually abandon you to wallow, struggle, and drown in the cesspool waters of philosophical right-wing conservatism and left-wing progressivism. 

Your relentless evil toward me has yielded you this. You people are vermin. This is why you get to suffer so terribly.

What goes around, comes around. As you sow, so shall you reap. You get what’s coming to you. You get what you’re asking for. You get what you oh-so-richly deserve.

So don’t come complaining to me that the cons and progs are leaving you in misery and guiding you right over the cliff. You had your chance. You made your choice. So don’t come whining to me now! You willingly and maliciously killed the goose that laid the golden eggs. You should have nourished and cherished her. 

You've made your own nail-studded, glass-sharded bed. Now lie in it!

You think for a nano-second I feel bad for you disgusting insects? Guess again, you loathsome monsters. I wish you suffered far worse. You deserve to suffer far worse.
