Some modern leaders demonstrate a propensity for tenacity which is offset in a new dominion of ignorance by lack of reason. This realm seems to be gardened by a sort of plastic Lentulism, with aristocracy purchased by self serving bravado rather than the traditional authoritarian fare of coin. This is of course is not to place within the realm of argument that non-authoritarian grandeur is obtained in this manner, it is to point out that a broad stretch of grey area exists in this League of Laertes, there are no anti-theticals, but simply new breeds of aristocratic-like personas. What then would surface as a standard, identifiable notion of ascension and “rank?” Would it be safe to assume that, in this brave new superficial world, self governance by humility, civility and common sense would be the hallmark of our regnant recreant regents? The answer of course, would be found in assessing the composition of the foundation of their façade: change and difference. This is the essential building block for the modern ideological leader to develop a personal -and this designation is important- sense of power and authority. Many reasons exist for this condition, but mostly the concept of simply expressing ideas passes for sufficient in the minds of most men. It seems that a more elusive higher order of men would have the premise of their existence archived in strategic accomplishments rather than to allow possession of their ideals and contextualization of their deeds by the self appointed, aristocratic-like, leader genre. Unfortunately, in a society that favors the gods of therapeutic self indulgence over responsibility, narcissistic gratification as a vector to collectivism and rewards incivility with attention and praise will find that this higher order of men, genus honestus, will rarely realize their threat to oppression and authoritarianism as they are often cannibalized by their own. Before an enemy can be struck down, the aristocratic-like modern leader class will have ruined most avenues of success after engaging in a campaign of semantic contextualization to consolidate opinion, simply for their benefit. Resolution is the enemy of the power hungry, despotic-lite, who seek to capitalize on the struggles of men. Tangible results are markers of success and identifiable avenues of eventual achievement, our pseudo-leaders require a constant struggle and an unachievable tangible goal to maintain their viability, so they tend to dwell in a hyper vigilant state of paranoia, perceiving anything that manifests itself as a substantial method of potential achievement a threat to their power. Of course their power of perception is driven by the same broken thinking which drove them to a position of perpetual leadership, guiding good people towards emotionally satisfying, yet ineffectual goals.

We swim in the warm waters of the atrophy of common sense. In the United States (and Western Society) we have now only one identifiable trait- the constant production of new illiteracies. Our new crop of leaders evolve from a 40+ year culture of replacing popular and common traditions, craftsmanship, civil responsibility and self reliance, with recondite, intentionally abstract, post-modern “knowledge” blocks. This monopoly on information contextualization is administered by so-called experts, which creates the idea that individual achievement is beyond the means of the average person. People are engineered to depend upon these “experts” so much so, that they feel they need to seek the authenticity of established and recognizable entities simply to act, learn or govern themselves. And what criteria exist to define expertise and who decides this? In our society it is the media conglomerates, businesses, whose aims are to ensure that issues are presented in a manner which maintains viewership by putting a carrot on the end of a stick. These are the exact same traits and methodologies of our new aristocratic-like leader class. People follow these leaders for the same reasons they constantly tune into news personalities for their fix of non-resolution. These leaders operate in the current power structure by mimicking the standards that already exist, practicing the techniques already in play and gain prestige and power by simply branding themselves as purveyors of change. Standards and empirical benchmarks do not exist in this world as they are items of direction which ultimately lead to resolution. The general “de rigeur” of most folk has no way of telling that it is falling off a cliff, and so as acceptable standards rapidly decline the average person cannot perceive this downward spiral as the canonical of their condition, which is of course intentionally provided for them by their new leaders, to which they have become dependent for their “expert” guidance. This is the current tragic paradigm of Western Civilization, continual authoritarian enslavement which devours any resistance by ensuring that most leaders of said resistance have only the toolset of non-resolution at their disposal. In truth, the authoritarian sees polarized interpretation as simply the most manageable brand structure and endeavors to control the expression of both “arguments” to issues they create and deliver thru their media systems. The new leaders rise to the top not by achievement, but because they have become zealots for a particular brand of argument and either demonstrated that they have a tangible marketing group that fits within the controllable limits of the accepted canonical or by simply taking possession of the true achievements of other organizations.

The modern leader has simply become the leader of a franchise, which calls upon patriotism and loyalty for their colloquial branding value and not their orthodoxical purpose, and denies true achievement with the ambition to obtain dominant shares of the marketplace of expressions on “issues.” This new leadership franchise could care less about truthful victory and truthful winning or losing, but more simply about whether it stays in business. So what then will make a successful leader? With such tremendous opposition and institutional foundation working against the emergence of a real leader, most definitely within the given paradigm, propagation of our current demise would seem inevitable. Yet the answer is quite simple! A new leader simply would act, without the need of followers, for the creation of a tangible victory that changes the current course of events in favor of, in the cause of Liberty, the restoration of the Constitution. It is not sufficient to plug holes in a dike; a true leader must take actions that do not comply with the authoritarian approved norms of behavioral branding. This leader must fight problems at their source and never look for consolation in anything other than himself, governed by their ideology and in our case the restoration Constitution. The anti-Liberty authoritarian system provides semantics and slander, used by the aristocratic-like “new” leader types as well, to govern and control their populations and members, consolidate power and provide for the continuance of a struggle they hope never ends. It is important for the true patriot to realize that suffering, caused by slanders, betrayal and misrepresentation isn’t real. The very minute one comes to a realization that their feeling of suffering for taking opposition to collectivism (or other oppressive forces for that matter) is simply a means of control, they have achieved the needed transcendence to operate free of authoritarian governance, then with clear conscious can begin to make tangible, truthful strides towards a path to resolution. With a concrete action in place that has changed the course of current events in favor of Liberty, only then could one be a leader of men. A man who has not endeavored to create this building block, but is desirous of position of authority and takes actions to react to problems but not solve them at their source, can be most definitely defined as one of the new aristocratic-like pseudo leaders. Again the supreme quality of a true Patriotic Leader is to deny the meaning given to suffering by the authoritarian collectivist system. Without this trait a potential leader is sure to be the manager of a branded franchise of expression.

The only true expert is the individual self and the only true leader is an individual who has, with or without the help of others, achieved a tangible victory for liberty which alters the current course of authoritarian collectivism. When a true leader speaks you will know it as they will speak of resolution and not maintenance by pseudo vigilance.

Here we go another "REVOLUTIOARY HERO". Some people look for excuses to have radical, violent revolutions with tiny greivences.

Do you hve a computer? You do. Since Im guessing you are some college kid who just read about Che Guevera, the "HERO" you probably have college too. I see some poeple on this board even "CONSERVATIVES"(someone who is advocating overthrowing a government for such little reason cannot really be called a conservative) scream and cry about how misrable they are because some obscure peice of legislation says this or that, and how that of course, means we need a revolution. I think this sort of "hair trigger" mentality results from ELITE people who dont have much contact with reality, who sit in their room alone all day, and personally decide that is what is needed. ELITISTS ARROGANTLY decide that that THEY have a PERSONAL RIGHT to decide wether PEOPLE LIVE OR DIE.

This is how communism was founded. People like you, privliged people, thought they had it bad, and made the misrable lives of millions of phesants WORSE, because in it all, in all of it, they couldnt recognize that they were ultimatley just a bunch of WHINY COLLEGE KIDS who didnt have a CLUE WHAT THE HELL THEY WERE DOING.

If there is a "age of revolution" the "ignorant masses" need to decide THAT, not YOU, no matter how important you belive you are.

If brevity is the soul of wit, then couldn't you condense this into one paragraph?

I just noticed, your user name MAKES MY POINT. "CHOSEN". "I am ENTITLED to DECIDE wether or not there is a REVOLUTION, and wether or not people FIGHT AND DIE bacause I am the CHOSEN ONE"

I have seen some SELF IMPORTANT PEOPLE but this kind of HYPEREGO and SELF EXALTATION is something I have not seen before, except in COMMIE LEADERS and of course, DRUNK COLLEGE KIDS.

"This realm seems to be gardened by a sort of plastic Lentulism, with aristocracy purchased by self serving bravado rather than the traditional authoritarian fare of coin."

On top of the fact that that is the bigest load of BULL I have ever heard, that is EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE ADVOCATING HERE. And a much better word to use would be MONEY, we are in 2008 here.

You really should have checked and it would have been immediately apparent that "chosen" was cutting and pasting from a FREEPER posting.  Perhaps "chosen" is "18echo" on http://www.freerepublic.com.  I have no way of knowing but this does not appear to be original commentary but rather a simple "cut & paste" from another site.  

See the link here.

Note that others at freeper roundly criticized the post as horrible and incomprehensible.  

I don't know if "chosen" is claiming this as "original content" or not but it is good practice to identify and attribute the original source when quoting in a post.  Just another common courtesy that evidently isn't so common any longer.

apologies. I am not very experienced in spotting a phony post. It should have been obvious.

Shoot..I just thought he was smokin' some good stuff.

To say that this is communist is utterly stupid. I would challenge you to find one ounce of communism in this post.

Secondly, it is my post.

Originating here:
http://aztlandestroyer.com/voice/?p=92

I post it on Conservative sites to get Conservative feed back and avoid rino nonsense. I understand that freerepublic is infested with rinos and republicrats, however, this is no reason to avoid expression.

But let me just say this, I find it almost disheartening that anytime someone posts something critical, that the only reactions forums posters seem to have sits within this highly limited polarized world. Either/or hardly cuts the mustard any longer.

If you cannot understand that sentence, do you really think it makes sense to broadcast this? Would you so easily wear this deficit on your sleeve? I chose vocabulary for the purest sense of image, I am sorry that you cannot experience things in depth. I take your response similar to the primates in 2001 that encounter the obelisk, you are angry that you don't understand what I am saying? This is a sort of confusing, yet entertaining and disheartening madness. I would hope that some day you understand metaphor and analogy, I can only imagine how painful it would be to go thru life constantly intellectualizing your emotions. To see life as a laundry list of pre-prepared isms seems to be a hell in itself. But of course, if you cannot understand that sentence then I would only say that it serves as an intellectual line in the sand, either you grow smarter or surrender to a world of chose your own adventure novels. The intention was not to ostercize, merely to express. But of course in your case I seem to be stating the obvious to the oblivious.

So you play the "polarized politics" card, and then say that I "simply dont understand" your work. And ignore every arguement I made in my post.

Your entire post consists of self serving bravado. You are ADVOCATING what you SAY YOU ARE AGAINST. WHat are you going to do? Draw a refrence from a 1734 novel that says "consistency is irrelevant"? Wiggle your way out with more crap? This is why I usually dont waste my time with this.
No, I am just good at cutting through pages of INTELLECTUAL IVY LEAUGE BULLCRAP and GET to the point. You are calling for a REVOLUTION because of a number of bizarre reasons that dont exist. You are implying in a HYPEREGO way that you are entitled to call for it. None read this crap at the other site, and I cant imagine why many would want to read it here.

Calling for REVOLUTIONS is CHARATERISTIC of the WAY the COMMIES TOOK CONTROL. You are SAYING that PEOPLE are STUPID and need "Insert ideology here" leadership. The "Ignorant masses", of course need "enlightened intellectual" leadership.

And that is why I am even responding to this pathetic crap, I cannot stand ARROGANT PEOPLE, like the LIBERAL JUSTICES of the SUPREME COURT, who think they can CONTROL the ACTIONS of PEOPLE because they are "Insert arrogant, self important label here"

You contradicted your entire arguement when you complained about my use of "isms". Your entire arguement is based on the SUPERORITY of YOUR PERSONAL "ism"(I could not even determine what it was, beyond "whatever the hell I want because I am the chosen one")

I am done with this nonsense discussion.
