Home, the Problem with the New World and why it will die

The New World especially Amerika sets itself up in its own mythology as a break from the failures of the Past, a schism with the oppressive Imperialist Empire of Britain and a fresh rebirth of humanity in the light of individual freedom.

Of course--as noted in this blog many many times (in response to the indoctrination the US tries to impose on the Old World of the Holocaust)--Amerika's dream land got off to a really bad start with a genocide of the people who already lived in the continent (the worst in human history) and then the largest program of slavery mankind has ever seen. All this then followed by the worst wars the world has ever seen. Only after all this did the US emerge as a global leader. It would be no exaggeration to say that the New World is the worst nightmare of the Past.

Now this absurd divergence between the dreams of Amerika and the reality of Amerika creates a really massive problem that is spreading far beyond its borders into its empire and very notable in the UK.

Human beings have History. This is no less scientific than to say there is Cause and Effect. To understand your self, your society, culture and existence is to speak of History.

One of the most extraordinary things about humans, indeed all organisms is we start as infants in some way. We have this history. It is really hard to understand this because we personally make this mistake of thinking we are a fixed entity, our personhood does not change. So we imagine that when we were born we were the same as we are now. This then extends into ideas of souls surviving death and all kinds of nonsense. Properly seen we understand that at some point we were a helpless child totally dependent on our parents and community and with everything to learn. Freud makes the (not so incredible) observation that this history we have leaves an imprint in our present self. Trauma in the Past especially when we are so vulnerable gets written into our present. It is obvious, but perhaps ground breaking when you have a fixed unchanging idea of our self.

Well likewise whole societies have very real history, actual cause and effect that shapes them. Its members record this in myths and legends, and to a casual observer we might dismiss these stories as fairy tales. But we cannot dismiss the creative forces that have shaped the society and these stories. We cannot discount the Past which is the root from which the Present grows.

Except we think we can, because Amerika likes to think it is a break from the Past and somehow can just live in the Present born magically from a cosmic egg touched with the breath of God. It is nonsense. Amerika like everything is born of History. In its own case the one thing it likes to remember is the War of Independence where it struggled and won freedom from the slavery of the British Empire (although actually it was the French Empire that did this). Another blog but the entire Amerikan myth of this is wrong and does not reflect the History at all.

Now this desire of the US to erase History and somehow emerge as a fully fledged unchanging creature is the same myth of self above but written on a vast problematic scale. Things change. People change. Societies change. Amerika changes. And with that change is the recognition that they are made and have History. To think that sycophants to this ridiculous vision like Francis Fukuyama should try and divert dialectics to support it. His Japanese heritage should have taught him the nonsense behind this. However his Japanese heritage is mortally wounded and scarred by the Atomic Bomb--you want to know why Godzilla and Anime wants everything destroyed it is not just the historical earthquakes, it is its current enslaved state as a result of the Amerikan Bomb. No other people have experienced the bomb: nothing else in the known universe has experienced this, but the supernatural destruction of Atomic Power is now permanently written into the Japanese psyche and it cannot go away. They are the Atomic People and Amerika is to tyrannical destroying master.

You can see why the US wants to forget history. In its history lies the monstrous genocide to clear the land of its inhabitants to make room for "Amerika" and the horrific slavery upon whose slave's bodies Amerika is built. And then the centuries of endless warfare waged in the name of "US freedom", but everyone else's slavery. Every square foot of Amerika is drenched in the blood of people massacred to build what exists today and this is a history that Amerika wants to forget.

Now the key thing in this amnesia is the importing of people to the New World to colonise the lands cleared of native people. A mass migration of misfits and dreamers from the Old World to step into the shoes of the genocided. Anyone who moves to Amerika is a genocide apologist which is why Jews travelling to the US is so incomprehensible and reprehensible. The Germans tried to get them off German lands so they go to Amerika where the same Europeans have cleared natives off the land. It is the classic short sightedness which leads to genocide in the first place. Many Jews might complain here and say there are Germans - but we know this is not true. Jews are some abstract, other-worldly, divorced, badly defined entity called "Jews" and that is the as yet unsolved problem. Germans are people with either a direct heritage to the land or absorbing into the heritage of the land. Jews are not these people which comes strangely to the same conclusion as Hitler. 

For the British all this is far away. We have never had a genocide. We have contributed to them like Churchill starving 3 million Bengalis in 1944 but these shores are Genocide free. This is not a guilt we carry, each person who lives in UK lives here freely, and the natives have lived here for 1000s of years and can truly call this place home. Something only native Amerikans can in Amerika.

But the Amerikan hates the Brit for this. Hates the Old World for this. The Amerikan is guilty of the false way they have stolen a land, sold their own heritage they left behind and replaced with a plot of criminally obtained farm land and began a life of lies. This may have suited criminals trying to forget crimes in the Old World and make a new start, but History remains and what is taken criminally is never really yours and you know it. So they try to erase the Past and claim that all people are welcome to the US, which is a land free and non-judgemental and full of opportunities. Well it is for those who accept the poison chalice of stolen goods. But this is all Amerika and all Amerika's problems.

In the UK which has History, which has a population of ancient people and a complex and cohesive society which truly belongs here all the nonsense of the US means nothing. We don't want change, we don't need to constantly keep running to escape our Past, we are happy to just sit in the land of our forefathers and exist with our ancient cheeses, beers, pies, public houses, traditions like Christmas and democracy and ways of life. 

But this creates a problem that only the Old World knows. Everyone belongs somewhere. No Amerikan belongs anywhere and they will run the days of their lives looking for a place to rest, but there is no where. For the Old World we are settled; settling is done 1000s of years ago. It is forgotten and already written into our lives; it is no concern of ours. The problem occurs when people turn up on our shores who have for whatever reason start to run. Perhaps they have been brainwashed by US propaganda about "better lives" and think it is worth throwing their home away in favour of running. They sell their souls for some dreams that the Amerikan has promised them, but as History reminds us the Amerikan is profoundly ungenerous and never fulfils his promises: Dreams are thinner than air when you wake up.

UK now has millions of people here who do not belong here.

That is not a statement of prejudice it is a statement of cause and effect. It lies in what it means to belong anywhere.

Now if you ask an immigrant "what are you?" and they say "I am nothing and I am happy with that" then you have found a true Amerikan. Someone who belongs no where and is happy with that.

So you say so you should learn English because that is what we speak here. And they say okay. But you point out that their language suits them in another part of the world and they are better off there. And they say I am a fast learner it is okay.

So you say are you religious. And they say I was brought up with this religion and custom. And you say well we are Christian here, so you should convert. But your religion and customs are better suited to somewhere else. And they say I am a fast learner it is okay.

So you say are you academic. And they say well my father was a farmer. And you say well we don't have much use for farmers here as its all done by machines. You will need to develop a basic education (which usually takes a child 7 years) and reskill, your skills are better suited elsewhere. And they say I am a fast learner it is okay.

Do you like cheese, milk and beer. I was brought up not to drink alcohol, I am lactose intolerant and my parents never bought cheese. Your tastes are better suited elsewhere, and you should change your diet carefully as your body has developed to a certain diet. And they say I'll develop my diet as fast as I can it is okay.

We have only so much sunlight a year in this country. Do you come from a place with different amounts of sunlight. Yes but I will take vitamins and make careful adjustments. It is okay.

Do you have the same diseases where you were brought up. You should think about vaccinations against some of our common disease that you won't have become naturally immune to as a child.

Your myths and legends and history belong somewhere else, you need to learn the tales of this land to integrate with its history. Okay I learn fast.

So basically you have someone come to Britain's shores from somewhere that is not Britain and so is not British and they have a huge mountain to climb to adapt both physically and mentally to the new conditions.

Why would anyone do this? All they can hope to achieve in the end is to reintegrate into a community like they already had where they came from. All they can hope to achieve here after endless work is what they already had at home.

The film Borat written and staring Sacha Baron Cohen is a masterpiece at examining the folly of all this. Amerika sells itself like the Wizard of Oz as fantastical land where anything can happen, but it is ALL an obvious lie. It is too good to be true, and it is not true! It is odd however that he is a Jew. I wonder what he says to the issue of culture, community and belonging somewhere. He may say the Jews belong no-where but this is self-deception because the whole mythology is built upon the myth of Israel. Jews more than anyone want to belong somewhere, but after enslavement by the Babylonians (and mythologically by the Egyptians) they carry this Somewhere in their hearts. But it doesn't work does it. With this definition of Jew I can just become a Jew right now. If Israel is in my heart I am a Jew. Instead Jews have rules to try and stop this happening, one of which is blood line, and another is shared culture and identity. Well thank God for the internet because how could Jewish communities across the planet remain "Jewish" without contact and communication. Everyone lives "somewhere" and like it or not this proximity becomes the foundation of your community. Trying to believe you share a common identity with a community across the planet is like a long distance relationship: it is an exercise in mental deliberation it is not natural. A little bang on the head and you might forget it all. But you will never be forgotten by the people you physically live with. How ever you like to dress this up, your physical encounters and community are your actual home even while you like to daydream and believe you belong in the stars.

So certain cultures like the Jews cannot integrate. As a result Jews are always running. I am beginning to think that the exhausting homelessness of the Amerikan is rooted in the Jew. Unable to integrate with people they belong nowhere and are always hounded out of town. For a Jew home is Israel but Israel does not exist, it is a myth. The Israel that was created by the British is exactly like Disney Land, an attempt to make real what you know is imaginary and you need therapy if you start to believe it is real. You do not make lands. Lands already exist and already have people on. Perhaps if we discover a habitable planet with no people on then you can try true colonisation, make that place Israel but on Earth like with the fake creation of Amerika, by executing the existing people, there is nowhere left to colonise and hasn't been for 10,000 years. If you want to move you need to integrate into what is there already.

However the UK establishment for some reason is living in a alcoholic stupor. It somehow has forgotten that it is the government of Britain and the British. For some reason it has decided to ignore the History of these Islands and ignore the people here in favour of strangers who do not belong here.

This smells a lot like Amerikan thinking! But unlike Amerika we are not ashamed of our history. The people here like being here: we have been here for 10,000 years and there has been no genocides or slavery. We are happy with our history and we live it every day in the cheese and the beer and the Celtic humour and wit and stories and comradeship of an island that has lived together for 1000s of years. We have no reason to welcome strangers and strangers will be obviously out of place if they come.

This is not to say we will fight them on the beaches if they come. All communities place humanity first. Generosity to the traveller is written into the DNA of humanity. It was illegal under Celtic Law--that only really disappeared from Ireland in the 1960s--not to help someone in need. That exists across these Islands and has done for 1000s of years. But the British government does not respect any of this. It is happy to wholesale import people. And this smells of Amerika.

Looking at our history we need to recognise in the UK we have been lied to. Amerika took us over aggressively during the World Wars. We were taught we were fighting foes in Europe but really we were the prey and the World Wars were the shift to an Amerikan ruled West. Europe and Japan are now run with Amerikan rules and that means we are taught to be ashamed of our communities and History. But we are not. We have no genocide or slavery here to be ashamed of and this is where the obvious mismatch occurs.

We are basically not Amerikan and never will be. And it is a jacket that really does not fit. We are happy here. Amerikans are never happy, they are always running from their Past, always looking to expand and colonise.

SO sooner or later this is going to break. New World and Old World are unreconcilable and the New World will die without a place to belong on this planet.

With hope the Americans and the Jews will invent space travel to other planets and basically, to use a solidly Saxon phrase, fuck off and leave the real inhabitants of Earth to continue their relatively content existence. Yes there are wars and disagreements between powers and rulers, but they always rule over people who ultimately already belong somewhere.
