Evil Incorporated Has Incorporated Everyone and Everything Into The System
This morning I revisited Wm Jas Tychonievich's insight concerning the concept of inclusion in an all-encompassing totalitarian System:
"Inclusion" means everyone and everything must be fully incorporated into the System. No one is allowed to be excluded or even marginal. The excluded must be included, the marginal must be redefined as central. There's a classic cartoon-villain term for this goal: taking over the world.
As I reread these lines, the word "incorporated" stood out, particularly against the backdrop of the successful global totalitarian "taking over of the world" that occurred in 2020.
It dawned on me that corporations are at the core of the global totalitarian takeover. Corporations not only spearheaded the coup and implemented the new regime in 2020, but also continue to serve on the front lines as the primary force of integrating everything and everyone into the System.
Well before the birdemic coup, I wrote a post in which I noted that corporations exist to incorporate:
Nearly all corporations are part of the System, and they operate under the banner of a clearly understood Agenda. The primary operational goal of nearly all corporations is to combine and assimilate countries, societies, and communities into a unified whole under the flag of world government. My definition of a corporation is rather extensive and includes most non-profit groups, NGOS, municipalities, charities, political organizations, and other apparently non-corporate entities because, regardless of legal status and structure, most modern organizations operate under a conventional corporate framework, and nearly all of these organizations work diligently to incorporate everything into the existing System.
I wrote the above lines in 2019. As of 2021, I would add the following corrections:all corporations, especially the big ones, are now firmly a part of the Systemcorporations have succeeded in ushering in their objective of establishing a de facto one-world government/global totalitarian controlcorporations will continue in their objective of incorporating everything and everyone into the System until "all System, all the time" becomes the default setting for the worldcorporations are, without a doubt, embodiments of evilcorporations are the primary vehicles of demonic control in the worldthe despiritualized consciousness of modern people stems largely from corporate consciousness
In another post from 2019, I explored the idea of corporations of embodiments of evil (bold added):
Corporations are legal entities that are separate and distinct from their owners. Corporations enjoy the same rights, responsibilities, and privileges individuals supposedly do in Western societies – they can enter into contracts, lend and borrow money, take legal action and have legal action taken against them, own assets, assume liabilities, and file taxes. Corporations are literally considered physical manifestations – that is, as tangible and visible entities representing an idea or quality.
As physical manifestations, corporations are bodies (from the Latin, corpus). They are incarnated beings (from the Latin, carne meaning flesh). But what exactly has been given a body? At the metaphysical level, they can easily be confused with human beings, save for a few distinct differences. Human beings are incarnations of the Divine; we are the spirit made flesh. Corporations are incarnations of the Mundane; they are the temporal made flesh.
This brings forth another distinct difference – human beings have a “body” presence in the world – we possess actual flesh. A corporation’s “body” presence is purely legalistic; it possesses no real flesh, no actual body. Perhaps one way to think about corporations is this – they are the embodiment of the Luceferic within the Ahrimanic. The fuel driving corporate ambitions (and the ambitions of The System corporations serve) is white hot, frenzied, and passionate in nature, but the means of achieving these ambitions are cold, crushing, and technocratic.
Corporations are also lopsided mockeries of Divine Creation. Everything within Divine Creation possesses a spiritual element, but corporations lack this attribute. They are purely material beings. Spiritless. Soul-less. The soullessness of corporations helps explain why they are the System’s weapon of choice in its war against Divine Creation. Entities possessing souls (corporate owners and employees) can hide behind the façade of a soulless entity and manipulate the soulless entity into completing the most soulless of tasks and goals. This helps diminish notions of wrongdoing and also aids in the alleviation of personal responsibility.
Corporations are purely “abstract” material entities driven by purely material motivations. They exist in the physical and exist to serve the physical. They lack a metaphysical dimension, and as such are unconcerned with metaphysical realities or assumptions. Corporations do not care about eternal life in the spiritual sense – they seek eternal life in this world, and they are more than willing to sacrifice or assimilate themselves into The System in order to make that happen. The soullessness of corporations make them the perfect vehicle for the implementation of evil, which is what most corporations today are – this despite the good they might be doing in the world, actual or perceived.
Perhaps it is wrong to claim corporations lack metaphysical qualities or dimensions because The System corporations serve is fundamentally focused on the metaphysical - opposing and subverting Goodness, Beauty, and Truth. The System is interested in the Damnation Game and uses corporations to achieve its aims. However, I am uncertain how 'aware' individual corporations are of the System's explicit aim. To some extent, I assume they must be, but I doubt this in interpreted in an explicitly metaphysical sense, but rather somewhat obscured behind the veil of "doing business." Then again, it is conceivable that the directors of any given corporation are, in fact, completely 'in' on the game as it were.
Countless books and articles have been written about the harmful motivations and influences of corporations, but as far as I can tell, very little, if any, of the existing "literature" has addressed the spiritual implications of corporations "incorporating" everyone and everything into the System.
Reflecting upon the excerpt above, I have arrived at the tentative conclusion that corporations are not in fact "incarnated beings", but rather incarnations of non-being.
The essence of Creation is the establishment of relationships between beings. Since all beings possess a spiritual element, the meaning and purpose behind Creation are formed by the interactions and relationships of spiritual beings. Corporations are basically incarnated non-beings; more specifically, they are represent the physical manifestation of the idea or quality of non-being - or the idea or quality of being opposed to "being." Thus, the relationship between a human being and a corporation is fundamentally a relationship between a being and a non-being, which in and of itself is a massive inversion of the Divine.
Writers, thinkers, and bloggers occasionally explore the possibility of demons incarnating within some form of machinery or technology, but I posit that if evidence of demonic incarnation is to be found anywhere it will be found within the concept of the corporation. I am not implying that demons physically reside within corporate machinery and assets - rather that the demonic have successfully utilized the corporate framework to provide the quality of non-being a physical, material "presence" in the world.
The objective of incorporating everyone and everything to the System can thus be interpreted spiritually as incorporating all beings into the state of non-being. More precisely, of incorporating all beings into the side that is actively and willingly opposed to God and Creation. This is accomplished primarily through the process of despiritualization, which focuses on persuading beings to abandon their spiritual natures and willingly join the side of non-being through which they readily become susceptible to the forces of evil - the direct opposition to God that leads to the eventual privation of being and soul damnation.
The bulk of what I have just written is speculative in nature - especially the parts about non-being - but there is no denying that corporations have been a major cause of the spiritual devastation we have experienced in the past five centuries. I am not implying that corporations provided nothing good, but over the past two hundred years or so they have very clearly become the driving engines of leftism, materialism, and atheism. Moreover, they have clearly been utilized to install our current oppressive totalitarian reality, which is completely rooted in leftism, materialism, and atheism.
The success of the corporation as the enabler of global totalitarianism is readily apparent in the contemporary concept of the public-private partnership, a convenient arrangement that fuses corporate power with political power and economic power, thereby creating a governing body that is "of the System, by the System, for the System." I would add that since 2020, this public-private partnership model is diligently attempting to create a temporal "reality" based on the idea of "nothing but the System" or "all System, all the time", which is just another way of saying total worldly enslavement to (or inclusion in) the side that is opposed to God.
Defenders of corporations and the corporate model will likely scoff at everything I have noted above and be quick to point to all the material benefits corporations have provided for the world, but I would counter that material benefits cannot always be equated with spiritual benefits. On the contrary, many of the irrefutable material benefits corporations provide have caused and continue to cause incalculable spiritual harm. This applies to everything from rabid consumerism to plain old covetousness.
In addition to this, corporations are quickly and willingly abandoning their traditional and conventional roles as providers of material goods and enablers of shareholder profits and assuming new roles as dictatorial imposers of The Big Evil Lies agenda.
Corporations are the leading force behind the major Litmus Test issues of the climate crisis, anti-racism, the continuing sexual revolution, and, of course, the birdemic. Under the banner of corporate social responsibility - which, fittingly enough, rarely if ever, includes the honest responsibility of paying taxes - corporations the world over have shifted their focus from pushing products to pushing the anti-God agenda, which inevitably involves participation in the dissemination of anything and everything that is harmful, ineffective, and unnecessary. As a result, corporations have completely undermined the very foundations from which they were formed - science, economics, society, health, art, and all the rest of it.
Having touched upon all of the above, it is worth noting that the greatest harm corporations and the corporate model have inflicted upon humanity is the harm it has inflicted upon human consciousness, that is, upon human thinking.
When you speak to modern people today, you are essentially speaking to extensions of the corporate mindset, which is firmly atheistic, materialistic, and leftist. In fact, most modern people have become utterly incapable of thinking beyond the limits established by corporations.
By turning their backs on God and Creation, moderns have forfeited the spiritual resources needed to resist the external forces and pressure generated by corporations. On top of that, they struggle to make sense of the world beyond the boundaries of the corporate model. Simply put, most contemporary people have lost the ability to think outside of or beyond the System, which is exactly where the System wants contemporary people to be in terms of thinking.
Incorporating everyone and everything into the System is a war aim. More precisely, it is a spiritual war aim - an aim in which corporations serve and function as the main forces of advancement.

None Are Safe Until All Are Safe; The First Successful Global Inclusion Initiative
Wm Jas Tychonievich lit this little part of the internet on fire today with his post on inclusion and all-encompassing totalitarianism, in which he made the following clarifying observation:
"Inclusion" means everyone and everything must be fully incorporated into the System. No one is allowed to be excluded or even marginal. The excluded must be included, the marginal must be redefined as central. There's a classic cartoon-villain term for this goal: taking over the world.
Speaking of taking over the world, it is worth noting that the successful global totalitarian coup of 2020 - the all encompassing totalitarianism we are currently suffering under - also represents the first successful implementation of the kind of inclusion William describes in the excerpt above.
Under the guise of the birdemic, the Establishment finally pulled off the trick Satan had been trying to pull of since beginning of history - the incorporation of everyone and everything into a system that is inherently opposed to God. And the Establishment was able to achieve this through its newly minted global diktat of "none are safe until all are safe".
Now that the Establishment has basically incorporated everyone and everything into its System under the banner of protecting the world from a deadly plague, it desperately wants to keep the inclusion vibes going and will waste little time expanding its definition of providing "global safety" to areas beyond human health, more specifically to the Big Global Lies that comprise the litmus tests of serious Christianity.
Think climate crisis. Anti-racism. Ongoing sexual revolution and transwhateverism.
And if that doesn't work, there's always terrorism and war, be it conventional or cyber.
Of course, ensuring that everyone is firmly incorporated into the System will be the only way to ensure the safety of all.
At the material level, this means total enslavement. At the spiritual level, damnation.
The only solution on the horizon is freedom - more specifically, spiritual freedom - the kind only Jesus can provide.

An Excellent Summation of System Distancing
When governments around the world began imposing lockdowns and birdemic measures like social distancing, I surmised that what was needed more than anything was system distancing, which I described in the following manner:
System distancing involves measures taken to reduce or stop the spread of the evil System within one's own individual being and the hope that such action might help to reduce or stop the spread of the evil System in the greater world.
The extent to which people will be able to distance themselves from the System will depend on individual circumstances, and individual outcomes will inevitably vary; nevertheless, I believe the effort must be made.
The most significant step any individual can take in this time and place is to sincerely acknowledge, once and for all, that the System, together with the Establishment that runs it, is evil - meaning it is anti-God, anti-spiritual, anti-Truth, anti-Beauty, and anti-Goodness.
This simple acknowledgment doesn't seem like much, but it is incredibly significant. At its very core, it is the choice of good over evil; virtue over sin; truth over lies; courage over fear; reality over unreality; salvation over damnation; love over hate; and hope over despair.
Look at this way: The more we distance ourselves from the System, the closer we draw to God and Creation. Thus, this movement away is simultaneously a movement toward.
I later went on to state that I believed system distancing to be a spiritual imperative. On his blog today, Bruce Charlton provides what I interpret as an outstanding and insightful summation of what system distancing means and why its so important in this time and place:
The global totalitarian System is a material one, which excludes the spiritual (denies the reality of the spiritual) - because only the material realm is controllable. The System now includes all of public discourse, and all major institutions (including the churches); and its grip increases daily.
Of course, those demonic Beings who control the System are not themselves material - and They know perfectly well the reality of God, creation and The Good (which they oppose). It is this larger perspective of the demons that enables them to control the System and to make it served the goals of damnation - while their human servants and dupes are mostly oblivious.
The strategy of totalitarian evil is to induce an habitual, passive, unconscious materialism among all humans; thus to confine them completely within the System - hence to be able fully to monitor and control them.
So, it is not - after all - difficult to escape the System; because the spiritual realm lies beyond. But escape is not in the physical realm - not in the realm of society or culture - not in any institution (including not in a church - when church is functioning in the public realm) - since all of these are by-now net-absorbed-into the System (corrupted, converged); and the System is evil.
The spiritual real is explicitly known only in the realm of thinking; and within thinking in that kind of thinking that could be called direct knowing, conscious intuition or heart-thinking: in other words the spiritual is to be found in thinking that comes from our real (and divine) self.
Such thinking is undetectable and uncontrollable by the System.
I encourage everyone who has not read Dr. Charlton's excellent post to do so here.

Endless
When I first encountered the László Mednyánszky landscape called "Endless", I found it rather bland and off-putting in comparison to the Wandering Baron's other landscapes, most of which literally crackle with light. The drab color scheme in this one reminds me of mold and algae. They odd greenish haze muting the sun remains a mystery to me.
Nevertheless, the more I look at it, the more I enjoy this peculiar landscape. It would be a stretch to say that I really like it or admire it, but there is something intriguingly soothing about the two figures standing on the lake shore before the blurred highland swells in the background. Not a great landscape, but still a somewhat evocative mood piece.

Naturally, Everyone Ignores the Birdemic in the Room
I must say that it has been rather amusing - in a bad way - to see American Conservative extraordinaire, Rod Dreher, trumpet the virtues of the current Hungarian prime minister concerning the latter's legislative initiative to shield Hungarian children from the pernicious propaganda that QWERTY people and their supporters enable and endorse.
Of course, the Hungarian government's move is, in and of itself, Good. Likewise, Dreher's lauding of the Hungarian legal measure is also, in and of itself, Good.
Here's the problem. As Good as the Hungarian legislation and Dreher's support of it are, neither can be considered on an "in and of itself" basis.
Other things need to be considered, with the birdemic being foremost among them.
Let's break it down: Dreher is currently defending and celebrating an individual who displayed absolutely no qualms about surrendering to the birdemic; an individual who tyrannically suspended the rights of the citizens he apparently represents; an individual who locked down the entire country not once, but twice; an individual who psychologically tortured and terrorized an entire nation via a relentless fear campaign; an individual who manipulated more than half of the country's population to voluntarily accept experimental, unproven pecks; an individual who openly discriminated against citizens who refused to get with his program; an individual who appears more than ready to continue doing the same and worse should such conditions manifest in the near future. And this individual has done all of this under the guise of Christian leadership.
And Dreher is defending said individual against other individuals and groups - mainly EU technocrats, politics, and their allied associations - all of whom are guilty of the exact same draconian tyranny the Hungarian prime minister has exhibited.
In all the controversy of "these rights" and "those rights", no mention is ever made of the personal rights and freedoms Hungary and the EU gleefully and sadistically trampled upon and continue to trample upon under the justification of the still unacknowledged and officially denied birdemic coup of 2020.
Of course, we shouldn't expect anything better from a man like Dreher. After all, he publicly capitulated to the birdemic very early on and remains subservient to the global totalitarian takeover to this day. All under the guise of being a respectable Christian.
So good for the Hungarian PM for standing up to the globohomo machinations of the Establishment and good for Dreher for all the cheer-leading about the PM standing up to wokism or whatever.
Unfortunately, neither of these "goods" put the Hungarian PM or Dreher on the side of Good, for that would necessitate acknowledging the birdemic in the room.
And neither appears willing to do that. Not now. Not ever.
You can't proclaim the virtues of not living by lies if you choose to live by the Biggest Lie the world has ever experienced.
You just can't.
Sorry.
Note added: My criticism of the two individuals mentioned in the post is not based on my assessment of their apparent sins, but rather on my assessment of their chosen side. The actions and communications both men have displayed in connection with the birdemic reveal that they are - actively and willingly - on the the side that opposes God and Creation.
Of course, the Hungarian government's move is, in and of itself, Good. Likewise, Dreher's lauding of the Hungarian legal measure is also, in and of itself, Good.
Here's the problem. As Good as the Hungarian legislation and Dreher's support of it are, neither can be considered on an "in and of itself" basis.
Other things need to be considered, with the birdemic being foremost among them.
Let's break it down: Dreher is currently defending and celebrating an individual who displayed absolutely no qualms about surrendering to the birdemic; an individual who tyrannically suspended the rights of the citizens he apparently represents; an individual who locked down the entire country not once, but twice; an individual who psychologically tortured and terrorized an entire nation via a relentless fear campaign; an individual who manipulated more than half of the country's population to voluntarily accept experimental, unproven pecks; an individual who openly discriminated against citizens who refused to get with his program; an individual who appears more than ready to continue doing the same and worse should such conditions manifest in the near future. And this individual has done all of this under the guise of Christian leadership.
And Dreher is defending said individual against other individuals and groups - mainly EU technocrats, politics, and their allied associations - all of whom are guilty of the exact same draconian tyranny the Hungarian prime minister has exhibited.
In all the controversy of "these rights" and "those rights", no mention is ever made of the personal rights and freedoms Hungary and the EU gleefully and sadistically trampled upon and continue to trample upon under the justification of the still unacknowledged and officially denied birdemic coup of 2020.
Of course, we shouldn't expect anything better from a man like Dreher. After all, he publicly capitulated to the birdemic very early on and remains subservient to the global totalitarian takeover to this day. All under the guise of being a respectable Christian.
So good for the Hungarian PM for standing up to the globohomo machinations of the Establishment and good for Dreher for all the cheer-leading about the PM standing up to wokism or whatever.
Unfortunately, neither of these "goods" put the Hungarian PM or Dreher on the side of Good, for that would necessitate acknowledging the birdemic in the room.
And neither appears willing to do that. Not now. Not ever.
You can't proclaim the virtues of not living by lies if you choose to live by the Biggest Lie the world has ever experienced.
You just can't.
Sorry.
Note added: My criticism of the two individuals mentioned in the post is not based on my assessment of their apparent sins, but rather on my assessment of their chosen side. The actions and communications both men have displayed in connection with the birdemic reveal that they are - actively and willingly - on the the side that opposes God and Creation.
Cleansing of the Issues
One foolproof gauge of just how corrupt and evil our contemporary societies have become is a sober assessment of what qualifies an issue for political/public debate. This is particularly relevant when it comes to any "issue" involving children.
That our world is so saturated with people who make "issues" from theories and practices that are obviously harmful to children reveals just how wicked, unholy, vile, base, and malicious our world truly is.
Moreover, that we allow these "issues" to actually become "issues" is an indictment against us all.
Why do we allow atrocities committed against children - gender transitioning, sexual mutilation, sexual propaganda, and all the rest of it - to be discussed under some banner of "human rights"? Why do we allow these monstrosities committed against children to establish a toehold in public and political "discourse"? Why do we allow for supposedly civilized debate over these kinds of evil barbarity against children?
There's no place for discussion or debate when it comes to open and obvious evil committed against children.
Open and obvious evil committed against children warrants only one response - making a whip from cords and driving out from society all who endorse, discuss, or debate such abominations.
Some evils - particularly those committed against children - are not and should never become "issues." They are simply too evil to justify such conceptualizations.
Stop justifying these sorts of "issues" as "issues".
Cleanse them instead.

Live in Eternity's Sunrise
Yes, there is still joy in the world. Keep your eyes open and you are destined to see it fly.
Yesterday, my wife took my son into Sopron where some organization or other had set up a temporary Ferris wheel in the middle of town's historic district.
My son had never been on a Ferris wheel before. Here was his reaction:
The photo immediately reminded me of a William Blake poem I had posted on this blog nearly a year ago:
Eternity
He who binds himself to a joy
Does the winged life destroy
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sunrise
We can only experience joy as something fleeting in our mortal lives. All attempts to hold on to it beyond its natural duration leads only to captivity. The trick is to enjoy the moment, share it, participate in it, and then help it on its way when it desires to move on. If we do this, we can experience the essence of eternity as the joy flies away.
The best experience of joy is when it inspires a perfect blend of love, faith, and freedom.
When that occurs, we are offered a glimpse into eternity. And for that we should be grateful.

The Dead End Times
Mention the End Times and you are bound to trigger scoffing and eye-rolling in nearly all people, including Christians - but does the same hold true for the Dead End Times?
Eschatology is not limited to the final events of the world, but also encompasses the final destiny of humanity and of individual human beings. As far as I can tell, the ultimate destiny of a great many human beings has already been decided and is on full display in our everyday world.
In simple terms, a great many people have actively chosen slavery over freedom, lies over truth, material over spirit, and hell over heaven. Not only have they made these active choices, but they continue to re-make and reaffirm these choices every day.
This reveals much.
For starters, it indicates the presence and dominance of an utterly despiritualized consciousness that no longer recognizes and has lost all awareness of the inherent reality of humanity's spiritual nature and the inherent reality of Creation.
By choosing to cut itself from all communications with the Divine, this mode of consciousness has basically closed off all possibilities for continued spiritual growth and development.
Secondly, by closing off all possibilities for continued spiritual growth and development, people locked into a despiritualized mode of consciousness have rendered themselves incapable of spiritual learning. Moreover, they have rendered themselves incapable of real world thinking and learning.
Thirdly, by rendering themselves incapable of spiritual learning, people a in despiritualized mode of consciousness have lost all sense of the true purpose and meaning of mortal life.
Fourthly, since they have lost all sense of the true purpose and meaning of mortal life, they have forfeited the spiritual resources needed to make the right choices.
And finally, since they have become utterly incapable of making the right choices, people in a despiritualized mode of consciousness inevitably make the wrong choices, but are utterly incapable of learning anything of meaning or value from the wrong choices they make for the simple reason that the very concept of wrong choice utterly eludes them.
And for all intents and purposes, this is a dead end.
Not only that, it also hints at a final destiny, not only in terms of consciousness, but also in terms of heaven and hell, both in mortal life and in life everlasting.
Note added: I think I'm going to begin referring to people possessing despiritualized modes of consciousness as "dead-enders". Take a look around. You're bound to see and encounter a lot of them in your vicinity on any given day.

Movie Poster Prophecy?
I don't know why, but I get the sense that this movie poster for a terrible 1986 Chuck Norris film offers many potential symbolic clues about what might be coming down the pipe as far as the birdemic goes.
Delta Force.
The Siege. The Ordeal. The Rescue.
Indeed.
Full disclosure: I don't really believe in movie poster prophecies, but hey . . .

Nietzsche Contra Goethe
An interesting observation . . .
"Nietzsche, the foe, is much nearer to Christianity than Goethe, the well-disposed, whom the Christian theme left absolutely untouched.
Goethe was indifferent to it. He is perhaps one man of the Christian period of history who passed by Christianity and suffered nothing from it.
He could arrange his interior life without Christianity. For that reason he is sometimes called the great pagan. But in Greece too he was unaware of the tragic religion of Dionysus.
It is well known that Goethe had a great fear of suffering and strove to escape it; nor was he fond of tragedy. Kleist repelled him and was very unjust to him. Sometimes his attitude to suffering conveyed the impression of cowardice although he was a strong man.
On the other hand one cannot imagine Nietzsche outside the Christian period of history, however much he may have turned his attention to ancient Greece."
