So we're finished, and the lawn still hasn't been mowed, my wife says. Obviously, I'm an addict and need help.
Looking through the threads in here, I think quite a few of us need help, too.
Anyone who can't resist popping in on a thread which is supposed to be a showcase of political correctness, just to mess all over on it, might need serious help.
So a while ago I was following the Lyndon LaRouche culties who are really sorta directly disrespectful of the Brit royals and the City of London, ya know, the Rhodes Club more or less. Actually pretty sure it's gotta be on the less side, because times change, and Rhodes is dead. The LaRouche folks are pretty stoked on the Silk Road and all kinds of technology, infrastructure projects like canals and roads and MagLev trains, and space ports, so it sometimes makes for some different reading..... But you have to follow the party line a bit too close for comfort.
President Xi of China and President Putin of Russia read their lit, too. Modern Renaissance Socialism at it's best, with its own unique set of intellectual leaders.
I also follow Mormon stuff a lot, and see how leadership works in that authoritarian setting, with offset smiles and fairly gushing "Brotherisms" of inclusion that carry a whole raft of cultural/social values and constructs. A lot more developed than say, the Law of Moses.
And then there are the US political parties, and little advocacy operations like Soros runs, and maybe Levin and Jones and the Breitbart set.
Well, I have issues with all these folks, and with JFC management as well, so obviously I am OCD on one-ups-man-ship.
I hear Xi has bought Hollywood outright, or something akin to that, and has weighed in on our social media giants as well, with a campaign like the Islamists/Democrats have had going on about Islamophobia and infidels in general, which made it essential media policy to avoid any negative value ideas or facts about Islam. And now the Chinese.
There is a crackdown going on in China, after some loosening on the subject in recent decades, on Christians. The Catholics need to let Xi pick their Chinese Archbishop, and a sort of "correlation committee" that will go through all their literature to make sure it is appropriate and avoids all negativity. Religion needs to be guided, of course.
At any rate, I define a cult as any specific set of beliefs or presumptions sanctioned by a leader or leadership clique empowered to discipline, remove, or discredit noncompliants loitering about the premises.
As such, JFC is a fully qualified cult, imo, with a sort of mod squad "correlation committee".
I have looked into the Utah Jazz ownership and management, and I have concluded that this site has their full endorsement and politically-correct stamp of approval. I can't turn to the BYU cougars because of similar trends imposed by that management.
Do you folks know that the Chinese have been sending their elite children to US universities to study Americans, like Un was here to study Americans as well. A disproportionate number of Chinese elite kids were sent to BYU.
Yep, the LDS Correlation Committee/Strengthening Membership Committees have gone viral, politically speaking. It's a Brave New World, where we all need to keep our real opinions to ourselves. Before we know it, all advanced nations will have a one-party system that sends "home teachers" out to see how folks are doing....
I think if any of you want help to fit in with the trend, there's plenty of resources and smiling helpers immediately available, where ever you are. Just squeak "I don't understand", and ten mods will come to your side within a blink of the eye.
Anyway, I've been toying with the idea of resurrecting Archie's site, or possibly doing a one-man comedy there. But maybe we can still have fun here.
If any of you feel sucked into this group more than you really feel comfortable about, I'm here to help..... well, until I'm booted out.....
