The Four Duckeries(Title adjusted)
Kunstler.com ^ | 11/28/2022 | James Howard Kunstler

I doubt there is another era in the history of Western Civ when the forces in-motion acting on society were so mystifying to those acted upon. And isn’t it especially galling that this is so in an age after rational scientific practice had decoded so many of nature’s secrets? Did that project somehow fail in the end? Has the Enlightenment been defeated?

First: Covid-19. How is it that we don’t know for sure how this organism came into the world, or understand what ensued after it did? Answer: the people who caused it to happen in the Wuhan lab have been busy covering their asses for three years, and successfully so. Yet we know exactly what Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, Peter Daszak, Ralph Baric and others did. The paper trail in correspondence and patents alone is clear. We just can’t seem to do anything about it.

Two: Government’s war on its own citizens. I’d date this for the sake of simplicity to the DOJ’s and FBI’s campaign to defenestrate Donald Trump starting in 2016 for the crime of winning an election.

 Three: Wokery, the Marxist campaign to disorder society in order to overthrow existing institutions and replace them with a utopian dictatorship of the intersectionally oppressed — also known as The Revenge of the Losers

Four, the most mysterious of the four Duckeries: Globalism as represented by the World Economic Forum (WEF) led by the quasi-comical Klaus Schwab. Supposedly — and I can’t endorse this proposition — it is a front for some cabal of exalted international bankers and oligarchs, the proverbial Rothschilds and Rockefellers, Soros and Bill Gates and their various subalterns.

There are some in “conservative” circles who seem to resent the Enlightenment.

“Two: Government’s war on its own citizens.”

The author never heard about MK-Ultra, COINTELPRO,the PATRIOT act, heck all the back to the Whisky Rebellion.

All of which turned government resources against citizens.

As if Trump was the first politician of any type who was supposedly persecuted and/or undermined by ‘The Establishment’

The party in power always subverts the opposition, and always in the name of the greater good.

back to the Whisky Rebellion.

Suppressed by none other than President George Washington, the "Father of Our Country".

Oh, for sure. My post is that there are some people who actually think the Enlightenment was a Bad Thing. You know, a move away from God or some such theocratic nonsense.
