A Historical Perspective On Mass Violence

[by Jason Kessler]
12/6/2015

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Here's a different kind of question I've often had about large scale tragedies like natural disasters, diseases & gun violence:

We get so caught up in the emotion of the violence that we don't consider the long-term, historical consequences. To put it bluntly: the planet is overpopulated already. Maybe we shouldn't try to cure every disease, we shouldn't confiscate all the harmful drugs, etc.

Perhaps we'd be happier if we made peace with the fact that rabid animals are going to dwindle the herd from time to time (as they have in much greater volume throughout history) & that's not really a bad thing in the long run.

Should we try to stop as many large scale attacks as possible? Of course... but I don't think the zeitgeist should have an aneurysm every time one occurs either.

I think we be served to draw some historical perspective on how difficult the human condition has always been & how that is something of a blessing in disguise. 

Take for instance how valuable the conquerors throughout history, as bloody & awful as they were during their reigns, have been to population control.

We think the planet is overpopulated now: the environment sick, the resources dwindling; where in the world [would] we be without Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great, Napoleon, Julius Caesar or for that matter the bubonic plague, cancer & AIDS?

Here's an article on the beneficial impact Genghis Khan's conquests had on the environment & sustainability, for example.

There are already 7.125 BILLION people on Planet Earth.

Try to extrapolate out how many people would be here now if EVERYONE had survived & had kids, which seems to be the ultimate aim of modern society... a right if you will... to defy the boundaries of nature.

It'd be one hell of a dystopian nightmare that's for sure.

Thank you, FRiend. I’m glad you find my stuff useful. There are some, who I won’t mention, that (stupidly) write it off as “spam”.

Running Thoughts

I’ve been a slave to love but a slave is meant to resent his master.

Let go. Be the beast. That’s all we are anyway. Humans are tripping on their oversized brains, thinking we’re above nature... no. Enjoy it :)

2/3/16
Depression & hope: two faces the divided. Janus god of endings & also beginnings. Hope a candle in the darkness, beautiful.

1/2/16
Once you start playing the victim game when do the excuses end & the personal accountability begin? Will you release the hostages when you’ve gotten your pony, getaway chopper & $1 million? I doubt it.

12/27/15
I think there is a tension between being driven to be the best and being readily understood by the masses when you get there.

12/16/15
I can’t think of any occupation that I admire more than the professional provocateur, who has the courage & self-determination to court controversy despite all slings & arrows of the world.

If you put all your trust in any political leader or source of media, you’ve drunk too much Kool-Aid to taste the strychnine.

For what it's worth, I just now came across this from the obviously left-wing biased "fact-finding" site Snopes.com. They say it was a different Jason Kessler, yet offered zero evidence to confirm it. I still haven't been able to find a single thing on who the CNN Jason Kessler is, or what he looks like. Surely CNN has photos of him.

Did Kessler write articles for CNN that were sympathetic to the Occupy movement?

False. Kessler says he never worked for CNN, and we spoke to a source at CNN who confirmed it. A writer named Jason Kessler was once employed by CNN, and he did cover Occupy Wall Street protests among many other topics, but according to CNN it was not the same Jason Kessler who went on to lead Unite the Right.

How I Feel After Beyonce’s Racial Superbowl Performance

by Jason Kessler, 2/12/2016

I’m actually really okay with Beyonce’s racial advocacy at the Superbowl. I’m a big proponent of free speech across the board. I think it’s really important for white people not to whine about it like little bitches.

Then they’re just playing into the same victim game. They are affirming and condoning it as a reasonable discourse in 21st century America.

[1960s/original] Black Panther Party [BPP] Archives
From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

From the far left Southern Poverty Law Center...

“At one recent speech in favor of Charlottesville’s status as a sanctuary city, Kessler live-streamed himself as an attendee questioned him and apologized for an undisclosed spat during Kessler’s apparent involvement with Occupy. Kessler appeared visibly perturbed by the woman’s presence and reminders of their past association.”

“A “journalist, activist and author from Charlottesville, VA,” Kessler’s LinkedIn account states that he graduated of the University of Virginia in 2009. He was virtually unknown in the media prior to his crusade against Charlottesville Vice Mayor and City Councilman Wes Bellamy.”

"We are researching to determine if he used to work for or with CNN. CNN has not responded to our calls or emails. It is possible that another Jason Kessler worked for CNN, however, the Jason Kessler from Charlottesville have a gap in his Linked In profile from 2009 to 2013."--Project Republic

That’s right! This man is living his dream as a “professional provocateur.” Now he can claim victory as a mastermind behind the worst racial violence to spill blood on our streets in over twenty years.

The more we research the less we believe the false narrative that Jason Kessler was the victim of a hijacked movement. Indeed the facts lead us to a wholly different conclusion. The evidence says this man wanted to stand at the center of controversy. What better way to do it, than to call his rally “Unite The Right.”

He invited the KKK, Neo Nazis, and other White Supremacist groups. This, of course, courted a response from radical extremists from the other side. The New Black Panthers, Black Lives Matter, and Antifa were happy to meet his soldiers and all the sheep on the battlefield.

Sandwiched in the middle, people from the left the middle and the right who had no idea they were just sheep brought to a slaughter.

People from the left who want to see an end to racism, people from the right who want to see an end to the destruction of our past. Those from the middle seeking an end to both!

One beautiful soul rising to heaven as her broken body lay murdered in the street! One mentally unstable patsy who should have stayed home and taken his meds and gotten more sleep!

All brought together by a man who hails the almighty:
Provocateur

Re: “Not saying he’s as sick in the head as Manson.”

Not as sick perhaps, but just as cold blooded.

Absolutely, if that was indeed his true motivation.

No, I haven't. They're probably aware of most of this stuff.
