A true King is one who protects the Common People: long live the King!
The funeral of Queen Elizabeth II was traditional in many ways and seems to harken from olden times. As such it seems to fly in the face of all the attempts to modernise Queen and Country over these last 70 years. It is the story of the Lion and the Unicorn, the Monarchy and the Common People, where the common folk often hold to olden traditions that may surprise a monarchy or a royal family. Yet, in both there are olden traditions and ancient attitudes that protect the strong and the weak from tyrannical even totalitarian impulses and are a wall to even foreign totalitarian infiltrations.
In an essay by George Orwell titled the ‘The Lion and the Unicorn’ [1941], he says the following about such impulses and infiltrations, namely, that at root they derive from:
“The totalitarian idea that there is no such thing as law, there is only power … .”
The attempts to modernise both Queen and Country finally brought us the infiltration of a new form of Communism, but one that is anti-working class, as the old communist revolutionaries eventually gave up on the working class when they preferred beer and ale to joining up for the Revolution. Surprisingly, this new form of Communism does not come from Russia but rather it comes from America of all places!
In place of a Communism that sought to bring about an uprising of the oppressed Working Class, there came a new form of Communism that has a new set of oppressed victims who have undergone a process of ‘conscientization’, a changing of consciousness, [cf Paulo Freire]. This conscientization process is applied to both a discovered and differently defined class of victims, victims derived not from the working class but from a variety of oppressed classes belonging to gender, race and nature! Hence, the term ‘woke’ - they have been awokened to their long standing oppression that has been apparently deliberately hidden from them by their oppressors.
The result of this ‘formation’ or ‘conscientization’ is a Woke and Cancelling culture that has infiltrated both Church and State and like a bull in a china shop it bellows and cries about their state of Victimhood seeking to trample down the whole rotten system; a system that turns out to be the Western Culture of Judeo-Christianity.
These Woke Warriors, who are often championed and formed by the Media and the Marxist Academic Establishment, recently had a go at Britain. Unbelievably CNN aired a woke call for Britain to pay reparations just after the announcement of the Queen’s death! They aired the demand that she make reparations of billions of pounds to the descendents of past generations who were victims of British colonialism and slavery. It did not go well when Don Lemon sought to champion this woke clarion call in an interview with a UK Royal commentator [watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cz5I_A5bQTk&ab_channel=FoxNews].
It is to be wondered that maybe we are seeing the beginning of the Great Unmasking of all the Woke-Type Scams practised on the nations of the world and also on their youth through schools and universities these last few decades! All scams use masks to hide behind as they need to hide their true intentions. Scams that have culminated in carbon credits, co-ordinated and financed mass migration and immigration to undermine the sovereignty of nations, critical colour theory, pandemics, lockups, gene altering serums, quantitative easing, replacing cash with the digitising of money [and closing down local banks, ATMs and cash based businesses], stagflation, phoney and proxy wars and their consequent effect of raising prices for food, energy and fuel, buying up farms, reductions of food production and Net Zero energy policies [to save the planet but starve and freeze common humanity]. All on the basis of a new Globalist Dystopian Vision of One World Government and One World Religion that actually hates the simple folk but loves experts, billionaires, Pharmaceuticals and compliant politicians, health professionals and police forces. Thus cometh the Lawless Man - the ideology, industry and technology of the Transhumanists!
The Great Unmasking may perhaps be found in the Free Speech Defenders who rose up and took to the streets of London in 2020-22 and they came from both Left and Right! Maybe the Great Unmasking is to be found when the Canadian Truckers rose up! The Great Unmasking is also seen with the uprising of an Alliance of Scientists, Doctors and Nurses! The Great Unmasking maybe in evidence in the recent uprising of the Farmers in Holland and the other farmers of the EU who have followed them! ‘Tis further evidenced that the Great Unmasking has occurred with 70,000 people in Prague taking to the streets protesting against the madness that is the EU’s economic policies and woke-ist agenda and NATO’s desire for war. The Common People, it seems, are rising up against globalist soul-less masters! As Chesterton put it:
They have given us into the hand of new unhappy lords,
Lords without anger or honour, who dare not carry their swords.
They fight by shuffling papers; they have bright dead alien eyes;
They look at our labour and laughter as a tired man looks at flies.
And the load of their loveless pity is worse than the ancient wrongs,
Their doors are shut in the evening; and they know no songs [‘The Secret People’].
For it is only the little people, the simple folk, the ordinary man in the street, the hobbits of our time who as the secret people and the silent majority that can tumble and rumble the powerful and the elites and pull down their Sauron-like towers. It is why the Common People will eventually have to take to the streets since their ubermasters are deaf and blind to normal channels of the Common People’s protests, namely, their letters, phone calls and emails.
It is for this reason that the powerful, the elites and the globalists would love to cull the simple folk from the planet using the politics of fear. In the words of GK Chesterton, the people of England, and the Common People of all lands, are growing tired of the uberfuhrers of our time:
We hear men speaking for us of new laws strong and sweet,
Yet is there no man speaketh as we speak in the street.
It may be we shall rise the last as Frenchmen rose the first,
Our wrath come after Russia's wrath and our wrath be the worst.
It may be we are meant to mark with our riot and our rest
God's scorn for all men governing. It may be beer is best.
But we are the people of England; and we have not spoken yet.
Smile at us, pay us, pass us. But do not quite forget [‘The Secret People’].
