Internet Barons Pushing The New Barbarity
Politics / Propaganda Aug 30, 2014 - 05:17 PM GMTTerrorism is Cool
Writing for Stratfor, August 28, Rober D. Kaplan said that “Terrorism is Theatre” but of course only for the mentally sick, including the Internet barons who directly profit from Death Pornography. Kaplan wrote that by choosing decapitation as the method for killing US journalist James Foley, the degenerate psychopaths of ISIS were right on the Internet social network button.
What they chose “is the best method for the sake of a visually dramatic video, because you can show the severed head atop the chest at the conclusion”. Kaplan added that “Using a short knife, as in this case, rather than a sword, also makes the event both more chilling and intimate”. Just like a halal abattoir, except this time it concerns a human being.
This was Internet-friendly barbarity, due to to the need, Kaplan said, for the “additional meaning” that is needed when we Tweet or Facebook or YouTube our crimes against humanity. Kaplan also said that “Passion, deep belief, political protests and so forth have little meaning nowadays if they cannot be broadcast”. He added that even torture and gruesome death “must be communicated to large numbers of people if they are to be effective”. Otherwise the poor dears do not understand – but watch how they react when it happens to them, their families or their friends!
The Gloating Nerds
The nerds in Silicon Valley gloat over the billions of dollars they have amassed on the back of narcissistic humanity – the backs of average Jack and Jill consumers of degenerate and sadistic mindwarp - and the billionaire nurds are of course laughing all the way to the gallows. The “execution” or in fact murder of other people. Their own silky necks are not yet placed in the noose to be cracked by a sharp drop while the social network Internauts drink it in like the voyeurs they are, from the comfort of their own homes.
Nemesis in Greek myth hinges on the punishment of degenerate and obsessional narcissism – the business model of the social networks. Narcissus was lured by Nemesis to the poolside where he obsessionally admired the reflexion of his own “incredible beauty”. He was so obsessed that he starved to death, admiring himself.
Punishment is needed for wilfully corrupting the public with sadistic filth. The nurds' claim that they have liberated us all with “new forms of self-expression” including open-air killings. This may mean business-only for them, but for society it is a direct challenge.
Kaplan is right to ask by what primal fault of society the “geeky billionaires of Silicon Valley and the Pacific Northwest” can claim to be innocent? Why can't we see the geeks themselves being tortured, burnt, buried alive, decapitated with a rusty knife and their billions of dollars distributed to the poor? They would at least have served some purpose!
Instead, by polluting the public mind they rack up “stakeholder benefit” for Wall Street's army of roaches seeking any way to talk up share prices. Money has no odor and is always innocent – until society wakes up, and acts.
Internet and the social networks have brought us back to the worst sorts of barbarism and the criminals who are responsible can be very easily identified although they are running rich and free – at present. But not necessarily forever.
Zero Moral Worth
The weak-knee'd claim that “communications technology is value neutral” does not work, no more than Adolf Hitler's claim that gassing Jews was “assisted suicide”. At the time, his Nazis were deprived of Internet to make easy money from barbarity and pollute more minds with their psychopathic depravity. Pol Pot, Idi Amin and other mass murderers were also “deprived of Internet access” – the only difference.
The Nazis did not have “geeks” on their side in their war to destroy society and its values. The social network providers, ever-greedy for sensation and for visitor hits enabling them to sell advertising space – why not for rusty knives and funeral services? - have no intrinsic moral worth. They are actively aiding and abetting the most hideous forms of exhibitionism – for example the decapitation of James Foley, called “execution” and not what it really was - open air murder by a psychopath and war criminal.
Words do not count for the billionaire geeks, of course, but they count in a law court! Whenever and if ever they wanted, they could simply say “Sorry, we don't screen that sort of dirt on our networks”. Instead, the geeks are providing death pornography and the incitement to murder, and this is due to their greed and nothing else. They are materially complicit in acts of barbarity and depravity..
According to Kaplan, we are back to a medieval world of morals and of medieval ritual theater, but in which the audience is now global. That is really a triumph for innovation, the same way the Nazi's mobile execution wagons, pumping tailpipe exhausts into the sealed containers full of human beings, was also “technological innovation”.
Any kind of theater needs trained and rehearsed actors, and the Internet geeks are supplying the training – for psychopaths. Already today, the standard ISIS decapitation showtime features a hooded executioner, with a Guantanamo jumpsuit for the victim, and of course the rusty knife. The script is standardized – and more death shows are promised. The social network providers will be there to make it happen!
We can also make it happen. Pursue the geeks who profit from this with the the full force of the law.
