“The World According to Doctrine” — “If you can flip a switch . . .”

“If you can flip a switch . . .”

Why were unborn children declared to not to be human beings in New York State? Because it was a convenient way to bypass their legal protection. New York has become a place where every right; even your right to exist – has become conditional. Conditional upon the profit of those in power. Human use, not human worth, is their grounding ethic.

It’s not surprising that in the instant of birth: these same children who are not human beings – become the most important human beings of all – follow the money.

New York’s political gang-in-charge is washing their corrupt and conniving image clean with money, money, and money— but after Election Day; when the money stops flowing, and their media frenzy abates – they’ll be just as corrupt, and just as conniving.

You can’t wash dirty politics clean with dirty money — you can only muddy the waters. And you can’t stop a victim from being a victim; by declaring them disposable. That’s true for unborn children, the elderly, and the growing list of victims in the New York State of disposables.

“The World According to Doctrine” — New Word: “Acadumbic”

New Word: “Acadumbic”

There are none so dumb; as those who will not think. No questioning, no debate, no critical thinking, NO dissent — today’s “acadumbic” institutions are not beacons of light: they’re towers of surveillance. If any unconforming concept, study, or proposal appears anywhere in our Society: its originators are shouted down to quiet them – and beaten down to punish them.

“The World According to Doctrine” — “Politicians are locking the hatches”

“Politicians are locking the hatches”

We all won’t survive – and those in the know; know it’s time to start throwing people off the back of the sleigh.
Is there a moral in the troika and wolves story? It’s hard to tell. Maybe it’s that the people on the top are willing to sacrifice anybody. Or maybe it’s that in certain situations; no matter what you do — you can’t escape your fate.
Unborn children, the elderly, and rural people are all disposable: and when you’re disposable – you can’t be a victim.
Maybe we’re all disposable. Maybe we’re all victims. Maybe none of us will survive.

“The World According to Doctrine” — “When the ‘house of cards’ is your neighbor’s . . .”

“When the ‘house of cards’ is your neighbor’s . . .”

Security built on taking; is built on there being something to take. The shakiness of the post-COVID economy – that makes it easy to take – is a shakiness that taking will bring to collapse.

It’s so easy to see the many ways that policy and behavior will lead to our destruction – but not to our survival.

We embrace the mantra of the Adolescent Society: “Somebody had better do something” and “It’s your responsibility.”

Please listen to the menu; because our options have changed.

“The World According to Doctrine” — “When everything you do is evil . . .”

“When everything you do is evil . . .”

Our Social Policies are acts of discrimination, profiling, censorship, oppression, and secrecy — in the good sense: because the end justifies the means – for the Greater Good. Fifty years of Affirmative Action; and there’s still no end in sight for this policy of secrecy, bias – and no disclosure — a policy that has spawned a thousand evil iterations – and a million evil acts — for the Greater Good.

You’re not killing people – you’re throwing them overboard to lighten the lifeboat – you’re doing it for the survival of everyone in an overloaded lifeboat. The Greater Good.

“Shall we draw lots?”
“It’s not that kind of Greater Good!”

“The World According to Doctrine” — “Great fleas have little fleas”

“Great fleas have little fleas”

The lines of this poem; derived from an earlier work of the Anglo-Irish satirist Jonathan Swift – so aptly describes the hierarchy of taking that delineates our Society.

In a science fiction story; there is a descriptive passage of a planet with wildlife so mindlessly voracious: that one creature; while being eaten by a larger predator – still reached out to grab and begin eating a smaller prey itself.

In the maelstrom of our Climate Change fueled apocalypse to come – “if you’ve got an itch scratch it; and if you’ve got an appetite feed it” has become the societal mantra — as we ride the dog-eat-dog wave to the shores of our destruction.

“The World According to Doctrine” — “Proud to be non-hispanic”

“Proud to be non-hispanic”

There is no “us” – and every difference carries a benefit – or a stigma.

Try this little test: “Proud to be Black” – “Good.” “Proud to be Hispanic” – “Good.” “Proud to be a Woman” – “Good.” “Proud to be Gay” – “Good.” “Proud to be White” . . . “Proud to be Heterosexual” . . . “Proud to be a Man” . . .
