The new colonials
Since the time of Charlemagne the church has served as an apparatus for colonialism and the first and foremost objective of introducing foreign superstition into materially conquered lands is the reduction of the bodily autonomy and societal security of women. It is so effective because it convinces the majority that what is happening to them is good for them.
Before they introduce the corporatist machines that reward a few men as a means of motivating the eternally deprived masses, before they reduce education to the manufacture of workers instead of expanding minds and creating critical thinkers, and before they replace languages and dialects with their own they have always started with missionaries whose primary objective is to instill fear around any sexual practice that does not involve narrowing a woman’s role in society to that of a breeder. These things may all happen at the same time but as the Cheyenne proverb says “A nation is not conquered until the hearts of its women are on the ground”.
There are endless examples. Long before French, German, English, and Dutch corporations were set up in Africa their missions were starting to appear. Alfred the “Great” prioritized converting the Danes to Christianity over meeting them in the battlefields. Slavery was justified with the Bible and organized rape campaigns as a means of “breeding out” an entire people was employed perhaps for the longest time in Australia but cast its shadow on the concept of Canadian residential schools as well. After India gained its freedom Mother Theresa, when she wasn’t endorsing bloodthirsty dictators like Duvalier and spreading sepsis among the sick by using unsterilized medical equipment, was espousing the evils of birth control and abortion in India. Can anyone look at the situation of India’s population and say in all sanity that this was a good idea?
Now look again at what the insidious consortium of politics, social media giants, and their influencer minions are trying to do to the younger generation. The nostalgia for lost comforts in the “family unit” that of course never existed. The subjugation of women to men being offered as a condolence to the men for their traditional jobs no longer being enough to sustain them, let alone a family. The reduction of education to industrial servitude. All have coincided with an aggressive campaign against women’s empowerment perhaps best exemplified by the overturning of Roe v Wade in the United States two years ago.
George Orwell was wrong. Our freedoms will not be taken from us by the denizens of ivory towers. They will be given away. Sold on beliefs of recapturing a mythical time enjoyed by our forebears. This conversation about communism, about socialism, about fascism – ideas about economic management have never been employed to dominate the masses. Not in the USSR or Hitler’s Germany or anywhere else. They’re just economic concepts. Any concept can be manipulated by adequately corrupt people. No. It all started with the promise of comfort by way of the reduction of women’s liberty. Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, Fascist Italy, and Franco’s Spain all had that in common. The promotion of traditional roles for women without their choice. Breeding and keeping the home and nothing else.
Our education system is already whittled down to grooming children for jobs. Corporations have already proven that the spirit of competition is as useless as anti-monopoly laws if CEO’s are all playing golf together in the same country clubs. Christianity has now a million phantom foes and needs more investment from politics in order to combat them. The blurring of national and religious concepts has gone on for over a decade.
The machine lost some of its power before 2016. Things were looking up. They’re fighting back. And they’re employing similar tactics that were employed in the centuries of colonization that preceded them. That same modus operandi. Disempower women and the nation falls.
We must reframe out political conversations. Never mind who’s a fascist or a communist or socialist or a capitalist. We need to talk about who wants to see the freedoms of women dissolved. And they’re not just in politics. The power that people like Elon Musk has cultivated can decide the outcomes of wars and the destinies of countries far more effectively than any government. These are the monsters sneaking up on our doorsteps. Know them. These are the beasts we should be talking about and when we vote thinking about.
