The FBI, the State, and the Death of Peoples
American Thinker ^ | 14 Aug, 2022 | Jim Fitzgerald

Posted on 08/14/2022 4:39:39 AM PDT by MtnClimber

If the FBI is not reformed, then the "death of peoples" is at hand, and all that will remain is the state.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, the 19th-century German philosopher, is most famous for proclaiming the death of God. He is less famous, perhaps, for proclaiming the death of peoples. In the former instance, he was making a theological statement. In the latter, he was making a political statement about the nature of the state.

Nietzsche made a sharp distinction between peoples and states. The state is "the coldest of all cold monsters." Peoples are what exists prior to states. For Nietzsche, peoples and states are separate entities: "Somewhere there are still peoples, but not with us ... here there are states."

Nietzsche claimed that states are the biggest liars of all liars, and the biggest thieves of all thieves. Whenever the state opens its mouth to speak, it lies. And whatever the state has, it has stolen.

What made the state the biggest liar was the state's own claim to be identical with the people. The state swallows up the people "chewing and re-chewing" them.

What made the state the biggest thief was that it stole the identity of the people. Thus, for Nietzsche, the creation of the state is the death of peoples.

This is the reason that the Constitution gave the federal government limited powers. The statists clearly don’t like having their powers limited. That is why we are where we are today.

Great article. “Subsidized softness!” Love it. And add to that, punishment for those who speak hard truths to today’s softest of societies. Speaking truth is the worst of hate crimes.

"If the FBI is not reformed..."

The FIB cannot be reformed. The traitorous organization needs to be legislatively terminated.

Correct. The left loves to blather on about "speaking truth to power", all while ignoring the elephantine (and I would argue fascist) powers in the room: The deep state/mockingbird media/corrupt judiciryl/monopolist corporate nexus.

This federal law enforcement agency is now revealed as nothing but a politically driven secret police organization that is tasked with intimidation and the oppression of citizen’s rights. It must be disassembled and neutralized.

The Gestapo, the Stasi were also all powerful… . They are gone. FBI is a grand total of 35k. That’s everybody including techs and clerks. In direct confrontation they are not very skilled. They are about 40 times less likely to have a violent encounter than a street cop.

They do have a limit. When fear based compliance ends, life could get tough on them.
