Clutching at straws...

It is a pathetic sight, in both main meanings of 'pathetic', to see the British people clutching at the straws tossed-out every month or two by the government/-mass media regarding the birdemic

One after another, every couple of months. The straws are version of: If you just quietly submit to tyranny for a limited time, then we can all return to normal. An incomplete lits would include such straws as 'flatten the curve of mortality', 'save the NHS, stop the 'increase' in 'cases', prevent the second wave, 'save Christmas', limit the new mutation, take the 'preventive peck' of experimental/ untested genetic engineering...

All will save us from the Iron Cage response to the birdemic - yet none actually do save us...

 

Somehow the totalitarian system remains, strengthens, becomes the New Normal... almost as if that was the real reason behind the elaborate fraudulent charade!

If only we really, firmly, obediently grasp this latest straw - then we can be allowed to live like human beings instead of battery farm animals... 

Stupidity on this level is something new. It is purposive stupidity - and why? 

 

Simply because the alternative is Un-Thinkable. 

That They (i.e. those who control all the national governments and the global media) really want to do... exactly what they have been doing for the past nine months, and are only manufacturing excuses to do it...

That Their motives are not just selfish but actively evil... 

All this kind of stuff is literally un-thinkable, meaning it cannot be-thought - therefore it Will Not be-thought...

 

Because If So; Then materialistic Godless modern life has Nothing to offer. 

Nothing at all

Therefore it cannot be; and the serial straw-clutching must continue, forevermore...

"Nihil infinitum est". Seneca the Elder's famous quote, nothing is infinite. One can read this as meaning everything in the created order has limits, i.e. all things will end.

One can also read it as: once nothingness is reached nothingness can go on forever. Infinity is a characteristic 'nothing' shares with 'God'. This applies especially within our contemporary milieu. "Clutching at straws" is the endless merry-go-round of material nihilism.

Only God can create out of nothing (ex nihilo). Without God all spirals into entropy. You can't push back on nothingness. Nihilism, "the death of God", gives way to no limits, thus is inevitably totalitarian.

Sobering and keen insight, Mr. Charlton. Somewhat apt to bear in mind on the second day of Christmas, the season that celebrates the incarnation.
