It was a surprise to no one that Ukraine won the Eurovision Song
Contest on Saturday night except maybe Sam Ryder who might have thought he was
about to actually win. Hard luck Sam and deepest commiserations, I feel for
you!
I don’t believe for a minute Ukraine won, there were many
better songs in the contest but to paraphrase Not the 9 O’Clock News, ‘nice
propaganda shame about the song’. But in these days of X-Factor style
manipulation, CGI, media bias and outright lies who knows what to believe
anymore.
And why all the concern for Ukraine? There’s been a war
raging in Yemen for years and not a word about it, or anyone from the celebrity
circus of the dire and meaningless showing up to support the downtrodden over
there. But then it all depends on where the interests of the
military/industrial complex lie doesn’t it, and who they own.
Formula 1 cancelled Sochi this year but were happy enough to
go to Saudi Arabia, that bastion of freedom and social justice, and Australia,
who were only outdone in lockdown tyranny by China. And, again, the silence was
deafening from the world of entertainment. Who would have thought that Right
Said Fred would have been the most vocal advocates for freedom and at the
forefront of the anti-lockdown/mask/forced jab tyranny of the last 2 years? Not
a word from Bono, Geldof, Sting, Paul Weller or Bruce Springsteen, all those
fake grandstanders for freedom and justice, what a bunch of hypocrites and
champagne socialists!
Surely cringiest moment of the year has to be Bono singing
‘Stand by Ukraine’ to the tune of Stand By Me, and in one foul moment
desecrating, not only one of the great classics of the Motown era, but my love
for it as well. I’ll never be able to listen to it again without seeing that
self-righteous prick squawking along – some things are unforgivable, these people
have no shame! Isn’t it strange too that all these celebrities can just pop
over for a visit to a deadly war zone and not even a helmet or flak jacket
needed for protection!! Hmmm…never a sniper around when you need one!
The sad thing about all this manipulation is that the
genuinely talented and deserving get nowhere. Imagine if you were one of the
other contestants on Saturday night; you put in all that effort, you possibly
wrote the song, like Sam, learned it, practiced it and put yourself forward for
selection, worked for months in preparation and, then, propaganda wars takes
over and all your effort is rendered meaningless.
The same thing is happening in women’s sport. All those
years of training and then some bloke with an overdose of oestrogen and a fake
pair of tits comes in and takes it all away. Women’s sport is going to be wiped
out because biological women cannot compete against biological male athletes. The
physical differences that happen in puberty are irreversible and it is not
possible to make a male a female regardless of how many hormones/suppressants
they take or what they identify as. See
link below.
All this
so-called ‘social justice’ has a down side and it started with the ‘everyone’
gets a medal’ that killed off the school sports day. Jordan Peterson, in
one of his lectures, talks about killing the spirit of a child and that the
quickest way to do it is to put down their behaviour/effort when they are doing
well. Isn’t that just what is happening here? Imagine the disappointment the child who was good at sports
and who actually won the race must have felt. So what if poor little Johnny
cried because he lost! Life is not always about winning and the sooner he
learns to cope with loss and failure the better his life will be, a bit of
adversity can build character.
Gone are the
days when your abilities, skills and talents mattered as you strived for
excellence in something. These things don’t matter in the world of social
justice, the only thing that matters now is the content of your underwear, or
your sexual preferences, or how many boxes you can tick for the neo-liberal
fascist brigade. As noted in Jen Psaki’s replacement in the Biden
administration:
Female –
check,
Black – check,
Immigrant –
check…the job’s yours. You’re not gay too are you, or feel a bit manly?
No,
Ok, pity
though, we could have checked another box or two!
The other downside to this is that when you put people in
positions based on a social justice box tick, and not on actual merit then,
inevitably, there will be failure. Just look at the political leadership across
the globe. How many of them are there because of their talents? You don’t have
to delve too far into their history to see that they are all hand-picked for
who they are and not what they can do. Justin Trudeau is where he is because of
his father, a former Premier of Canada. Emmanuel Macron worked for the Rothschild’s
before launching, or being launched, into politics. Jacinda Ardern graduated
along with the likes of Tony Blair from the WEF’s young global leadership
programme. See link below, you’ll note a
few familiar names there.
But in all the
shouting for ‘social justice’ I haven’t heard a mention of nepotism or
connection to the upper classes and moneyed rich. British politics and all
those top civil service jobs are all filled with graduates from Oxbridge who
came up through the public school system. The ‘Old Boys Network’ is still going
strong and not a word about the advantages mummy and daddy’s money and
connections bought for their offspring. Nor has there been much about how the
rich own and control everything already, or when the rules these governments
enforced on the rest of us over covid, did not apply to them because when you
have a private jet you can go anywhere, at any time, without restriction, or party
at your leisure like Boris and the rest of them.
When ‘everyone
gets a medal’ it undermines those who excel and kills off their reason for
trying, why bother training, studying, acquiring a skill when someone with no
training, no effort and no skills can walk in and take away all that you have
worked hard for.
The 1960’s
were a golden age in Britain, social mobility was at its highest, Britain led
the world in industry, music and art, and it held the promise of a more
equitable future. The working classes were better off than ever and had a
strong voice that was finally being heard. It was the generations who remember
those times that voted for Brexit because they saw how much their country had
declined since joining the Common Market/EU and finally had the chance to stop
the rot.
The Eurovison
song contest which also began back in the 1960’s was one of those shows that
the whole family used to gather around the TV to watch and see if you could
pick the winner, like the Miss World Contest, before the feminist rabble
intervened and killed it off. It was fun, a bit of harmless entertainment that
everyone could enjoy. God forbid you try to have some fun now when cancel
culture rules and the self-righteous and humourless are in charge!
Most of the
social justice warriors/neo-liberal fascists are not even aware that they are
just pawns in a rich man’s game, designed to keep us down and fighting amongst
ourselves while they, quite literally, get away with murder. The stresses of the
last two years have left us all fatigued and stressed, the world has been
turned upside down and the lunatics are still in charge. It feels overwhelming.
And yet it is
in the world of art and entertainment that I see hope. Artistic types have to
be able to create and seldom fit into a one size fits all, homogenous,
characterless world where you are not allowed to have fun, disagree and ‘MUST FOLLOW ZE RULES AT
ALL TIMES!!’
The Sex
Pistols have re-released God Save the Queen, just in time for the Jubilee (links below and a few more for the fun of it!) It is good to see that the
spirit of punk is still alive and well. Stick it to them Johnny! While It may
appear that the ‘elites’ have it all going their way at present, they control
politics, the media and the corporate world but no one gets to have it all
their way, all the time, forever. Change will come, people are waking up and
the pendulum will eventually swing back the other way. I just hope it will be
sooner rather than later so that the ‘architect’s’ of the present mess can be
held to account. But, in the meantime, just to try and speed things along, you
can always introduce your children/grandchildren to the Sex Pistols and see if
we can inspire a new generation to bring on the Anarchy! Altogether now! I am an anti-Christ, I am an anar-chist…
