The Weapon Of Language

Note: There is a new post up at Taki. This week the topic is a written version of the podcast from last week, slimmed down for space reasons. There is a review of the 1960’s classic Easy Rider up behind the green door. It is also available to those who buy me a beer. Finally, Sunday Thoughts, a half hour podcast recapping the news of the week, is also up behind the green door. There is also a post up on American renaissance by from the weekend, for those who missed it.


In a world where the end always justifies the means, even when the end is not achieved, truth must always be a secondary consideration. In fact, the truth is often the enemy, as it serves the interests of your opponents. By attacking the truth of something, or even the concept of truth itself, you take away the legitimacy of the opposition to you and your schemes. When morality is determined by who wins, rather than by some objective standard, partisanship is the new morality.

This is the modern age. You see it in the language. The public space is full of people juggling neologisms that have a nice ring to them as a replacement for old words or labels. They sound better and the best people always love hearing new ways of saying old things. It makes them feel smart and sophisticated. The intellectual in a liberal democracy is primarily concerned with appearing to be unconventional and heterodox, so the new words and phrases quickly become popular.

George Orwell said political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, which is almost always the point of the new words and phrases that come to dominate the discourse. The people introducing them are not trying to clarify some point, but rather to obfuscate. The game is to undermine the truth of some concept in order to put something long settled up for debate. The new word changes the old meaning in a way that makes it less settled.

The popular phrase “social construct” is a good example. There is no such thing as a social construct as currently understood. Into the 20th century people would have laughed at the idea of it. There are customs and institutions, for sure, but those are things that evolved within a people over a period of trial and error. The reason a custom has been passed down may have been lost to time or turned into an amusing bit of mythology, but the custom came into being to address a problem.

The social construct, on the other hand, takes the custom or institution and recasts it as an invention, a thing that is true only because of a set of rules. Further, it smuggles in the idea that it was deliberately invented. Men, and it is always men, sat around dreaming up the new social conventions to serve their interests. This strips the custom of legitimacy by casting it as just a partisan interest. The people wishing to change it are just as legitimate as the people who invented it.

The new term for custom disconnects it from truth by shifting the thing from the domain of things that are true on their face to the domain of things that are true only because of a set of logical rules. Humans come in two sexes, male and female, is a thing that is true on its face. The term social construct shifts this from the world of fact to the world of logical rules by insisting gender, another new word, is determined by society. They now claim gender is assign at birth based on antiquated concepts of gender.

What the phrase social construct permits the partisan to do is to smuggle in the idea that something like sex was an invention of men, and it is always men, to serve the interest of the inventors. On the one hand, the roles assigned to those with a uterus served the interests of the patriarchy. Now we are told that those same men made gender binary in order to oppress the non-binary. The concept of the social construct turns objective reality into an intergenerational conspiracy theory.

One of the ways the political neologism smuggles in lies is that it creates a false dichotomy in the minds of the audience. In the case of sex and sex roles, things are either purely nature or purely nurture, with nurture always assigned the default position in the comparison. Sex roles, for example, are either a social construct or a universal fact of nature. Since few things are the latter, the former becomes the default position, as if by magic. Suddenly, the natural world is up for debate.

This happened with homosexual marriage. It was first detached from its natural meaning to be a social construct, rather than an ancient custom. Instead of being defined by the biological necessity of reproduction, it was just an invention to suppress women and manage property rights to the favor of males. Once that transformation occurred, opponents of homosexual marriage were forced make the affirmative argument for something that had been the default for eons.

The truth is, few things in human society are purely the result of nature. Even things like hair color or eye color in Europeans have a cultural angle. Over time, females with striking hair and eyes found better mating prospects. This naturally led to customs in which women tried to show off these features. The environmental conditions made diverse hair and eye color possible, but custom made it desirable, thus striking hair and eye color were selected for over time. Nature and nurture.

This is the deceit of new words and phrases cooked up by partisans. The point is to assault the truth, strip it of its legitimacy. The partisan is at home on the battle ground of “who? whom?” so they naturally seek to shape the ground to fit their need. It traps the bourgeois objectivist into the either/or trap. Once they accept the false dichotomy, they accept the weaker hand, and the results are inevitable. The Left wins every battle by first destroying the weapons the opponent can use against them.

This is why there is no reasoning with a partisan. That lefty aunt thinks what she thinks because she sees the world in binary terms. She greedily adopts the new language because it reaffirms her world view. The partisan sees the truth in the same way the vampire sees a mirror. It’s not the reflection that terrifies the vampire. It is the lack of one, a reminder of a truth of their existence. Facts and clear language have the same effect on the partisan, which is why they hiss at them.

It is interesting to compare the growth of Christianity in the West vs. Paganism with worship of black people today by the upper class woke. In the first part, Christianity such as it existed during Imperial Times was weak, thin, and largely wiped out save in some of the Celtic Fringe and Italy / Iberia. It took dedicated missionary work and the deciding factor was that Christianity could give a pagan king who converted lots and lots of … literate monks who would be clerks that COULD NOT EVER inherit his kingdom or make a claim to it.

Hollywood has all but killed itself. Over the past decade, they’ve chased out all the White male writing & directing talent and replaced it with “diversity” (blacks). The result has been an inability to create anything new or interesting because White men are, by a HUGE margin, the most creative American demographic (87% of best selling novelists, most award-winning directors and screenplay writers, etc). Thus, the endless focus on remakes and reboots because that’s the low-hanging fruit that doesn’t require any real talent or innovation — both lacking in the diversity hires.

Christianity gives people a community, a wife, a sex life, a family, and a concrete (and simple) path to salvation. Obviously it’s not always perfect while carried out by man. You can love it or hate it but it’s been an integral part of our people’s identity for almost 1000 years. It can’t be all wrong. The woke religion causes depression, self hatred, atomization, low fertility and inceldom (unless you’re a chad).

And to believe that the Universe is ruled over by an all-powerful, perfectly-loving, perfectly-merciful God who knows you intimately and has your best interests at heart— that’s gotta be a source of comfort and hope.

So go to church anyway.

The theology is just one reason. Being among people whose values and traditions you share is another. Koinania, community, fulfilling the need for belonging and meaning.

The God part? Be honest. No one really knows. So participate anyway. Good for you. Good for your family. Who knows, God may be watching you! I always feel better after having gone to church.

The point seems to be that customs and institutions evolved over time in some sort of natural, organic way. But could this, too, be a false dichotomy if customs and institutions are the socialized expressions of the will of the dominant? Gender, as progressives use the term, isn’t merely a woke synonym for sex. The former term refers to roles, the latter to biology and, I’ll add, spirituality. “Social justice” is a true neologism as is “climate change” while “my pronouns are…” is pure pretension. Still, can you effectively refute the assertion that all evaluative language is, by nature, partisan?… Read more »

There is a lot of very well reasoned Christian apologetics that people neglect to look at before declaring Christianity unbelievable.

Yes: there’s a sense in which each person’s ‘reality’ is unique and personal.

But there’s another way of defining and understanding ‘reality’ that’s not the least bit subjective:

When scientists can launch a spacecraft from the Earth, slingshot it around the Moon, send it 5 billion miles to Pluto, and send back videos— I’d say that shows they have a pretty good grasp of physical reality.

Incisive comments. If I may add one more: despite many centuries of the progress of science, it’s depressing for us secularists to recall what a large fraction of the CURRENT population still believes in religions. Or do they? Trying to be fair, a large portion of “believers” are probably otherwise rational people just going along with a tradition, for conformity’s sake. Or put another way, we can all agree that Christianity exists. Rightly applied, it can be, and often has been, a viable moral system.

Looking at what has happened in the world, it seems that there are elements of Christianity that have sown the seeds which are undoing the Western world.

Take the tale of the Good Samaritan, which has been perverted into something that aligns with socialism.

Heck, the core story of Jesus himself is an issue because from that tale too many have internalized the idea they should sit around waiting for someone to save them rather than taking action.

I absolutely blame Christianity. The religion of the realm (whatever it is) is supposed to guard a society against the violations of the laws of nature. In this respect, Christianity has utterly failed. And if we’re depending on some latin mass millennials to re-boot it that’s not going to happen.

Now that the Israeli’s control the US government, they don’t need to stoke the Christian ideology as a way of getting Americans to support them anymore. For the most part the strategy of differentiating the US Empire from, say, the Soviet Empire by means of Evangelical Christianity failed. But it was only ever a tool for developing fanatical adherents who would die in our Military for the sake of our overlords. They did the same exact thing with Islam, ISIS and other terrorist groups. In short, it’s all just another example of the Deep State brainwashing complex. But they have… Read more »

” If the religion of your civilization is so weak that it can no longer uphold the community standards of even genital sets, will it not be marked out of history along with its adherents, or even former adherents?”

But is that the point of Christianity? If Christ, the founder, is to be taken at face value, then the point of Christianity is to reconcile man to God. Whether it upholds community standards would be, at best, a tertiary concern.

I totally agree, and it was allowed to happen. It was allowed to be co-opted, and continues to this day to be coopted and in decline. Even evangelicalism is in decline. So my assertion is that Christianity may have been a robust system in ancient times, but, like a dodo bird, has no natural defenses against the onslaught of the liberal democratic era. And any future dictator post liberalism will likely be atheistic in nature. And may even violently oppose Christianity itself.

Historically, Christianity has been weaker longer than its been strong (in your terms). At its inception it was a religion for slaves and women. And remained so for centuries. After it became the dominant religion in the Mediterranean it certainly played a role in the decline of the Roman Empire. In the sixth century it failed completely in preventing the Arabs from conquering half of Christendom in short order. It also didn’t prevent pagan barbarians from over running France and Britain and the Balkans.

It’s mostly forgotten today, but a key element of the Roe v Wade legal battle was that Roe had been raped by a black man – and who could force such a horror on her. It was. A provable lie as she had to forego the abortion for the legal case to move forward and it wasn’t a mulatto – she subsequently admitted that it was a long term boyfriend that impregnated her.

I’d say that most whites, everywhere, just go with the flow. Parrot back whatever will get them through the day with the minimum amount of pain. (This does not apply to Blacks, btw)

So the true believers are probably in the 10-15% range. Hardcore opponents may well be a large percentage of the population. The difference is that the woke believers control the power centers of our country: the government, big business, media, academia. They are using of those institutions to inflict their religion on us. Which is somewhat effective because of the overwhelming majority’s passivity.

So…. if this disproportion has existed from the beginning, since Emancipation— and there’s good reason to believe it has— then the “oppression” and “discrimination” and “prejudice” Blacks and liberals complain about, was merely a reasonable reaction to reality.

Molesting children has never been a survival trait and the problems with it are obvious… except to a significant number of jewish perverts and their sycophants.

And? Islam recognizes something important about unfettered sexuality. The mores of Christianity addressed the same problems in a way that I think is superior, but that doesn’t mean Islam was wrong in its diagnosis.

Then we abandoned the lessons of centuries.

Islam isn’t wrong to despise the morality of the modern West.

Epstein and Maxwell were manipulative sociopaths, using vulnerable “white trash” girls for their own perverse gratification, and to obtain blackmail material on politicians and other power players.

Maxwell’s father, UK media baron Robert Maxwell, was known as “Israel’s Superspy”. Epstein was a member of both the CFR and the Trilateral Commission, along with his good buddy Bill Clinton.

All of that is true, but mostly irrelevant to the points he made. Biological reality is that post pubescent “teenage” girls have been sexual active throughout human history. Trading sex for money or other material advantage is icky to us, but has been happening forever. If in this particular case, Epstein and Gislane were taking advantage of the women in some way, where the fuck were their parents when they disappeared for days at a time? Why wasn’t that abuse by the parents? I’m coming to believe that the UR problem with YT cultures that led to all the others… Read more »

Epstein and those like him are opportunistic parasites drawn to a dysfunctional society they both exploit and encourage.

First destroy the morals of the people (literally “demoralize”) then snap up the vulnerable offspring of the weakened people. Sure, the girls’ parents were terrible, but it is the Epsteins of the world — both literally him and those exploiting our children in the name of progressive “morality” that need to be eliminated from… Read more »

” The only real voice of reason in this argument is Camille Paglia, who says that women are responsible for themselves.” Women are, in a lot of cases, idiots with regard to their sexuality and modern society encourages them to be so. That’s why we developed customs and institutions — “social constructs” over thousands of years to safeguard women’s sexuality.

So, we arrive at the inescapable conclusion, what this entire discussion boils down to, women are different than men and can’t be treated as men are. They have occupied a certain place in society for millennia and do so to this day in many societies. Their struggles to become fighter pilots, firemen,CEOs, priests, cops and congressmen have simply resulted in embarrassment.

Since the psychology tends towards “picking sides” as the default, then perhaps we should use our words to create a strong, positive image for “our side”.

We could start with a simple slogan like “Civilized Life Matters”, and force the other side to argue against it. The goal is to put globo-homo on the defensive, to show them up as corrupt and degenerate, and to get the “silent majority” to support our vision instead of theirs.

When the church I used to belong to was debating same-sex marriage because of a bad choice in calling a new pastor, they held a struggle session to “debate” the issue. The bishop was there to help. He changed the words of a question I submitted from “same sex” to “same gender” as if he were correcting a student’s homework assignment. The whole denomination was converged. Found a new church soon thereafter.
