Congressman Kinzinger is Right: Stop Fearing a Nuclear War. Better Pray for It
We Are about to be Equaled
In the face of all the talk going on about the growing probability that the Western powers will keep pushing it ever more against the Eastern European and Asian powers, namely, Russia and China, and willingly or not will force a situation that could only be "resolve" through the total or partial annihilation of life on Earth, one hopes that a few consolatory thoughts should be welcome.
For starters, if it true that a Nuclear War is the grand world-scale event that could or would affect, afflict, and inflict on everybody on Earth the same amount of horror, death, and destruction, while eliminating for everybody everywhere to the same degree the probability that life would be flourishing again in a thousands of years, give or take a few, then, for those very reasons, having a nuclear war might not be such a bad thing as it first appears. For, everything about it suggests, it has all the trappings for being the surest portent we can count on of finally reaching a generalized state of global equality among the nations, and at the same time, of finally acquiring equality for everybody on Earth. If a Nuclear War would be exactly as it promises it would be, then and event of such magnitude that would place everybody on equal footing by "democratic logic" should be the Big Happening we all should be looking forward to, simply because we all want equality. By democratic logic, too, any person that is serious about equality will show no hesitation and would be looking forward to the day, maybe already close at hand, when universal equality attains. It follows, too, that where you stand on this issue, for or against a Nuclear War, is the most equitable rationale on which to measure your faith in attaining the fundamental end of liberal democracy, which is of making us all equal— whatever it might take. Thus, the mere promise of everything that today is alive ending up on an equal state of equitable equality should fill up with egalitarian jubilation the hearts of the liberal-progressive powers of the West. But that is only on the condition that they have been totally committed to the pursuit of “equality for all." A Nuclear War would be the ideal, literally once-in-a-life Litmus Test to that commitment. The democratic religion of Equality could be nearing the day of, a long last, bearing its fruits.
Think about this. Equality between the races. Equality between the sexes. Equality between hetero-normative sexuality and anarcho-queer homosexuality and its derivates. Equality among all the different non-binary sexualities from both sexes. Equality among all the social classes. Equality among the able-bodied and the physically impaired. Equality among the high-IQed and the slow-minded and retarded. Equality between the beautiful and the uglies. Equality between the physically fit and the morbidly obese.... all these equalities obtained all at once and within seconds. The more you think about this near-at-hand prelapsarian and paradisiacal utopia, the more you see the many advantages of the Nuclear Solution. Then, you cannot see more clearly see the point being made by a Pelosi, some Senator Lindsey Graham, some US Congressman by name Kinzinger from Illinois, and by the whole US Department of Defense. Once you see that a Nuclear War has the material potentials for bring about the realization of the liberal-progressive dream of a world more equal and fairer for all, it is our human obligation to listen to and to follow them. Whoever really means it when they say it understands that equality for all would be easily attained by joining with all the people in power who already see that, to offer more and more support to the American political establishment under Biden leadership, so we can keep moving forward to most decisively destroying the Russian economy and society. We should keep going on this road until the Kremlin can't hold itself back and have to react to our prodding. I, for one, as a committed liberal-progressive, rather than fearing the coming final, Universal Equalizer, am praying for it. Not that I cannot wait; but why should I, or for that matter, anybody else?
I am aware you might have some misapprehension and one or two caveats about equality getting perpetrated on us all, all at once, as it is only fair. I understand. Firstly. We all have in our lives people we love and who love us (though it is only democratic to acknowledge that some of you have more people to love and to be loved by that some of us). Yet, this could soon be evened out, as we would end up with an equal count of those. For instance, we all have parents, lovers, children, dear friends to think about while we still have time. That is truth; not that the truth matters much these days. But personally, I find comfort and solace in the knowledge that, once we are all rendered nuclear-ly the equals of each other, none of them will be there to miss me, and certainly, I will not be here either to miss them. Thus, "missing" is just another verb to be rendered moot. I also find comfort in this thought, and so should you.
Apart from that: we all know more than a dozen assholes, dickheads, pinheads, cheats, whores, thieves, sketchies, disloyal, liars, sluts, hypocrites, laggards, lazies, cowards, and any number of combinations thereof, that should have not been here in the first place. I would bet penny to dollar that I am not the only American who, randomly walking the streets any day of the week, regularly sees any large number of people without whom the world would be richer, or less poor, more beautiful, or less ugly, smarter, or less stupid— and more peaceful, inspiring, better-smelling, and less obese without. Except for children, who still are flourishing in innocence... But wait. They are likely to grow up into any of the specimen above, so... Everybody who might be nice and sweet and loving to you, including your children and other loved ones, might also at the same time be inconsiderate, callous, annoying, and a real pain to others. Which is consoling to keep in mind.
Of a part with that— the greatest number of people everywhere who stand to be equaled any day now can be found in any random combination of the assortment offered above. Those are the kind of people who, in good American vernacular, get referred to as being "waste of space," and "waste of time"; but they are waste of breathable air, too. That's the kind people one is forced to call "human" but which goes about their lives never having a single thought in their heads that's not about food, their own selfies, or social media; who behaves as though the world and the things on it exist to be suffered or enjoyed only as pictures; whose most important assignment of the day is to scan the internet for Likes on food, shoes, and cute puppies; who against the advice of the sciences are chain-smokers, heavy-drink, and gluttonous shoveling down garbage foods that let them depleted of gray matter; who spend half of their daytime on Instagram and wake up in the middle of the night to "heart" any unspecified number of posted narcissistic trivialities; who can't recognize their own state in the American map nor get to their favorite venues around their neighborhood without the map app; who walk about literally brain-dead, with their eyes and minds buried in their (the) Portable Narcissus Lake gadget; who has no mind of their own because it is owned by Big-Tech Corp; who cannot hold their end in a conversation about anything else but themselves as social media profiles; whose collective commonplace habits indicate their disinterest in truths on any area of life; who never in their lives read an important book on any subject and would not engage in any activity that does not cater to their aggrandized sense of self-importance which they call "love."
This kind of people—we are forced to call them "human" even though they are incapable of conceiving of doing anything that might justify their own humanness even to themselves, and who would rank below two or three species of animals if there existed a test to grade their humanity. Like animals, people of this type, who unfortunately are the great majority… they live only for the day and even for the moment, and only to feed themselves and sleep and make babies. They strive for nothing beyond themselves and cannot give themselves intellectual, artistic, religious, or philosophical tasks. They have no serious pursuits. They never set themselves up to overcome their pettiness, insignificance, passive-aggressiveness, mind-narrowness, and outright stupidity, and the way they live their lives does not allow them to gain awareness of their being nothing but cynic, socio-pathologic robots with so-called "human rights" and overpriced cellphones. These people, together with their political equivalent— they are not material fit to bring humanity forward to a more advanced state, but are a hindrance to that noblest of aim, and therefore must be nuke-equaled. As you can see, it brings solace to know a Nuclear War could not be in vain.
For, as a committed liberal-progressivist I ask: who in their sane mind would not want humanity to be cleansed of such dregs and make the world into something less of the cesspool, less the Roman cloaca that it is? If not as a liberal, as a progressivist I stand for humanity progressing toward realizing its higher potentials, towards being not "just human. So far, it has only managed to let itself down in placing "human rights" as its higher goal. Even monkeys could achieve this. So far, this humanity has not even been able to realize that it cannot have both "human rights" and "equality" because whoever has one does not need the other. Thus, since our so-called "education" cannot get us to surpass our prevalent "humanimality".... missiles will fly.
In short: there will have to be a Nuclear War. As I pray for it I find comfort in understanding that a net loss for everybody is a net gain for nobody that is a net win for everybody.
Yet, looking at this from a global perspective more specifically political, as the perspective above is more specifically philosophical, there are more reasons for liberal-democratic jubilation. Since the end of the Second World War and the defeat of Western Europe, it has implicitly been assumed by some that the whole Earth is the property of the Western nations, or to wit, that it is the property of the American political establishment and of Hollywood, and that the rest of the world is but only their tenants. If so, from that assumption it follows that the coming Nuclear War and the total annihilation that will ensue should be less desirable in some places than in others. In a total hecatomb, the United States, as the boss of whole world has far more to lose than, say, Russia. Because the boss of the world is showing to be hellbent on liquidating the Russian economy, the latter would have shortly been left with even less to lose than it now has, and therefore would have been placed by Washington and Brussels in a most favorable position to unleash total annihilation on all of us, so things can be evened out. By destroying its economy, Washington is handing Moscow the trump card, and credits will be due to Putin for allocating to us our equality. That's all the guaranty the world needs that the Great Equalizer must by force descend on us all. For, the question sooner than later Moscow will have to answer is: will it want to continue to exist in a world in which, deeply humiliated and morally broken and poor, as the intended result of having the core of its economy destroyed through economy sanctions and economic isolation it sees itself in the position of taking marshaling orders from Washington, after having had its demands concerning its national security ignored and dismissed by the latter? Or, what amounts to the same: will Moscow be available to swallow its pride, give up its national sovereignty, forget everything concerning national security, and suit itself up to being Washington's new errant boys, as Germany, France, Poland and the rest of the "free world" has been for the last ninety years?
If the Kremlin should give this question the only possible answer in accord with Russian's interests and Russia's national character and history, then we will be guaranteed that the Great Equalizer will come. Since they would have been left with even fewer stakes in the world than they had yesterday and even less than they have today, the Russians would have nothing much to lose. As the West has become so unhinged, the world nuclear powers (the Chinese, the Russians, the North Koreans, the Indians, and the Pakistani) get daily reassurance that in a world-ending conflagration they will have less to lose than they would stand to gain the day after tomorrow. That is to say, the powers that already have more and that stand to gain the more if there is not a Nuclear War, would theoretically and factually lose the more. To insist on this point: A net loss for everybody is a net gain for nobody that is a net win for everybody.
By this elementary mathematical logic one can take the measurement of how really unhinged, how deeply has the American political establishment succumbed to irrationality. Which of course, is a good thing toward the fulfillment of democratic ends. It might well be that is the price we must pay to attain that long-sought-state of total, universal equality democracy cannot stand without. And yet, it seems evident to me the same elementary mathematical logic is being applied in the Kremlin. Following this logic, the Russians have made their calculations and have come to the same conclusion I enunciated above. Coincidentally, that sounds like the same calculation at the heart of their decision to attack Ukraine. Without this calculation there would have been no Russian attack. It is logically implied herein that what's going on in Ukraine is sort of a lab modeling of the Russian's conclusion concerning the coming Nuclear War. It went something like this: if Ukraine is to continue to be used by the West to threaten the national security of the Russian State and its people; if Ukraine would not wisely and voluntarily decide to rule itself out as a threat to Russia and refuse to play the game of the West; and if the West should continue its attempt at taking advantage of Ukraine's existence as a threat to Russian national security, then Ukraine has to be rendered useless for that purpose. Ukraine is not to be taken; Ukraine is to be delenta: utterly destroyed. Putin has been saying so in other words for whomever wants to listen to.
By the way, the delenta solution is not one invented by the Russians but by the Western powers at their very beginning in Antiquity. That was the Roman solution to the threat posed by the Carthaginians to interests that lied within the sphere of influence of the Roman Republic. It was such threat what led the two long wars encompassing thirty years, until finally it got suppressed by the Romans in the last Punic War. Coincidentally, the threat posed by the Carthaginians happened to be similar in number to the three decade-long threat from the United States that the Russians have been putting up with. If I am reading them right, by destroying Ukraine while not intending to annex its territory (though this remains to be seen), the Russians would have been seeking to make sure its enemies will not have them, either. If they know what they are doing, in destroying Ukraine the Russians should be showing a determination to do the same to the entire Planet. There soon might not be a world in which only the United States and the nations who submit to their dictates can feel secure. That seems to the foregone conclusion the Kremlin would have arrived by now.
As we give Biden our support to keep pushing it to the Kremlin, Equality for all gets closer to being a reality. It will be lethal; but to obtain Equality demands sacrifices, and not just at the gas pump. I assure you it is coming; it cannot fail us any longer. This is what I base my Nuclear Prayer on: if Putin is not as irrational and unpredictable as the American political establishment and the American corporate media never tire repeating, then his attack on Ukraine was rational and premeditated towards a concrete end. But, if contrary to what the American political establishment and corporate American media like to propagate Putin is indeed rational and predictable, then his military attack on Ukraine is the lead up to the Nuclear War.
But there's no good reasons to fear that; we should rather pray for it. It is not only that a Nuclear War would be the speedier way for virtually everybody to get equaled; that could also be a one-in-a-lifetime opportunity to find out how well your three-story deep nuclear bunker will perform in real time, under realistic circumstances. Those who do not have theirs built already are running out of time. But maybe they are still in time to befriend some superrich American or well-connected politician (somebody who knows someone close to Biden, Pelosi, Congressman Kinzinger, or Lindsey Graham, for example), or anybody else mongering for a war with Russia. They surely have access to a nuclear bunker.
I pray for the chance of witnessing from my Swiss designed bunker those missiles falling in New York City and Washington. That should make a great Instagram moment.
