The Age of Smallness

In order to destroy human beings they first have to be dehumanised. Jews become vermin in Nazi propaganda with images of rats intermixed with jews, characterized as  Elders of Zion which becomes a crude cover for anti semitism. Thus demonised they can then be eliminated.

This can happen anywhere, throughout history to the present day. 'Big Business'  demonized - it's very size suggesting the inhuman, the behemoth, thus: Tech Giants that need to be 'broken up, cut down to size in other words, the Tall Poppy Syndrome. If someone has achieved something rare, unique, special they must in our small culture of grey mediocrity worship be demonized to be destroyed. They are  'selfish' daring to keep the fruits of their labours instead of 'sharing' them with others, 'aggressively avoiding' tax -(where did the 'aggressive' come from when until recently tax avoidance was seen as morally neutral, a legitimate form of wealth protection - who moved the goalposts?). Such people must be made an example of, publicly shamed in the popular press many of which publications laughably present themselves as pro freedom and capitalism!

No more heroes anymore. Let's worship zeroes instead. Heroes, leaders in their field are a threat to the establishment that wants the docile, the safe, the conformist. If the achievers are not made an example of they will become role models.

The same people who are fixated with size, largeness, the Big as if it were some principle appear to have no objection whatsoever to Big Government, indeed work night and day to make it even bigger, to enlarge its scope and reach, draw more and more into its sphere of influence, sucking the life and substance out of the citizens like a boa constrictor with its regulation,taxes, imposts, tarriffs, licences  directives, trust busting protectionism.

Bankers - code for jews equally demonized and let us not forget the greatest evil of our day cited in every crackerbarrel left wing and( sadly) right wing conspiracy theory: Roll of drums please: The Corporations! The embodiment of evil. Once again observe how the demonization always follows the dehumanization. Groups of highly talented individuals, the cream of their field coming together for a common purpose of utilizing an idea and maximising its financial return is now characterized as an inhuman entity, a disembodied elemental force to be reigned in with taxes, regulation and broken up. Individual rights of its members  totally violated so that some envy eaten mediocrity can 'compete' on a 'level playing field' - ie succeed on the corpse of the original mover and shakers, swoop on its achievements and ride parasitically on its endeavors protected by a posse of gun-toting bureaucrats redistributing the spoils of plunder. Such acts of piracy and  brigandage applauded in the press on its moral hind legs in disgusting sententious canting piety!

This is our culture and it has self destruct written all over it. Prepare for a land of little people for big government to herd as the sheep they have sadly become.
