The Wall Was Too High, As You Can See
Jim Quinn

“The real hopeless victims of mental illness are to be found among those who appear to be most normal. Many of them are normal because they are so well adjusted to our mode of existence, because their human voice has been silenced so early in their lives, that they do not even struggle or suffer or develop symptoms as the neurotic does. They are normal not in what may be called the absolute sense of the word; they are normal only in relation to a profoundly abnormal society. Their perfect adjustment to that abnormal society is a measure of their mental sickness. These millions of abnormally normal people, living without fuss in a society to which, if they were fully human beings, they ought not to be adjusted.”― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World Revisited

“The surest way to work up a crusade in favor of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone. To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behavior ‘righteous indignation’ — this is the height of psychological luxury, the most delicious of moral treats.” ― Aldous Huxley, Crome Yellow

As I have witnessed and lived through the last three dystopian years of mass hysteria, mass delusion, and mass mental illness, I find myself drawn to the same thinkers, social commentators, and musical artists over and over. The wisdom, wit, and clarity of Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, and Roger Waters in describing a world gone mad makes me feel less alone in my observations about humanity, politicians, governments, bankers, billionaire funded NGOs, war mongering psychopaths, and entities intent on shredding the social fabric of this country and the world.

Their writings and lyrics perfectly capture the insanity, glorification of abnormality, psychological manipulation and torture of the masses, man’s inhumanity to man, and how powerful wealthy psychopaths use their wealth and power to control governments, the media, academia, corporations, the military, scientists, doctors, and religious institutions. The dystopian visions in Huxley and Orwell’s novels, and Waters’ lyrics have been far exceeded by the reality of what has transpired and continues to take place every day.

Huxley’s quote about mental illness and our profoundly abnormal society has always struck a chord with me and helped me realize, as an outcast who doesn’t believe what is spoon fed to us by the mass media propaganda outlets on behalf of their wealthy benefactors, I’m not the abnormal one. My refusal to adapt or adjust to a deviant society inhabited and controlled by the mental ill, while worshipping at the altar of abnormalcy, is a sign of my sanity in a sea of absurdity. I have to admit it is lonely always being on the opposite side of the approved narrative, believed by the masses. It would be so much easier to just go along with the crowd, but it is not how I’m wired. I question everything.

I never believe anything spewing out of a politician’s mouth. I believe all governments are evil and controlled by a wealthy powerful elite, who hide behind the mask of the Deep State to manipulate society to benefit themselves and their feckless cronies. I have this rare ability to think critically, rather than believe what I’m told by “experts”, think tanks, media talking heads, and “scientific studies” produced by easily bribed hack “experts”. I channel my inner George Carlin regarding everything I am told by the government or the propaganda media outlets.

Those pulling the strings and manipulating the minds of the masses as a means to control society and dictate what we are supposed to believe, who to hate, and who to venerate, are the true dictators of this dystopian nightmare engulfing the world. It is they who have purposely created this abnormal world where deviancy, degeneracy and depravity are applauded and promoted, while decency, traditional family values, community standards, and self-responsibility are scorned, ridiculed, and spat upon.

The masses are still oblivious to the machinations of their shadowy overlords, believing they are free because they are distracted and amused by their hand-held super-computer phones, have ready access to copious quantities of manufactured food-stuffs, can watch non-stop sports and entertainment via their dozens of boob tube subscription services, can self-medicate with Big Pharma pushed drugs to address any physical or psychological malady they are told they have, and are instructed by the State who to hate, who to glorify, who to obey, and who to believe. They have perfectly adjusted to a profoundly abnormal society, believing they are normal, when they are nothing more than mindless cogs in a machine run by totalitarian sociopaths. They have fulfilled Huxley’s prophecy by loving their servitude.

The reality of the situation for the masses is far worse than they realize, but even when they are told what is happening, they refuse to believe the truth. Their cognitive dissonance and normalcy bias have been ingrained in their psyches by those constituting the invisible government, who know how to manipulate their minds through psychological techniques and perpetual propaganda. Believing comforting lies from their leaders is preferable to recognizing unpleasant truths which would require them to think, speak out, take action, and risk being ostracized, punished, and alone.

In actuality their beloved “smart” phones are tracking them, listening to them, analyzing their habits, and providing their government overlords with a complete profile of who they are. The “food” they are instructed to buy is nothing more than a tasteless toxic chemical compound designed to make them sick, which the Big Pharma sickcare complex“treats” with their profit-making concoctions designed to keep you sick or make you sicker. The constant stream of propaganda and social indoctrination being expelled from your 80-inch plasma high-definition TV is designed to keep you sedated, dumb, distracted, and convinced the most ridiculous outrageous lies are actually the truth. They want us amusing ourselves to death.

Neil Postman captured the gist of which dystopian vision of our future would dominate in his 1985 book comparing Orwell’s 1984 to Huxley’s Brave New World. The Huxley dystopia has been dominant, and remains dominant, but Orwell’s vision gained traction during the Covid mass hysteria plandemic. Instead of a boot stomping on your face forever, we appear to be faced with Dylan Mulvaney’s high-heeled pump stomping on our faces forever while he drinks a Bud Light and reads pornography to six-year-olds, being prepped for gender transition surgery.

“What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny “failed to take into account man’s almost infinite appetite for distractions.

In 1984, Huxley added, “people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure. In short, Orwell feared that what we hate will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us.” ― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business

Endless amusement, infinite distractions created by master manipulators, the daily two minutes of hate against Trump, Putin, white males, heterosexuals, or whoever the orchestrators of chaos choose, perpetual propaganda spewed by the media mouthpieces of the Deep State, continuous war against Eastasia, Eurasia or whoever dares challenge the almighty American empire, and unceasing creation of debt by an entity owned and controlled by Wall Street, have left us no way out, with little hope, zero prospects of voting ourselves out of this decades in the making predicament, and a dystopian future of war, hyperinflation, and chaos on the foreseeable horizon.

When you step back and assess the current state of our world in a dispassionate manner you must conclude we are either being led by lunatics who actually believe their insane theories or they are true psychopaths intent on destroying the world. In either case our rendezvous with destiny is going to be bloody, chaotic, terrifying, and destructive, with a potentially catastrophic ending for our planet. Climate change and mentally ill gender and race hustlers are not real issues, but made up theories based on false narratives, rather than facts. Global military conflict provoked by a low IQ dementia ridden pedophile in order to hide his family’s traitorous financial dealings with foreign countries is the ultimate act of hubris and lunacy. But that is where we are.
