Biden’s “Democracy”
A Study in Cognitive Decay

Stephen Paul Foster

1,899 words

If you are searching for conclusive evidence of the total collapse of America’s educational system, search no further. I invite you to read the remarks of President Joseph Robinette Biden to the Virtual Munich Security Conference (MSC) this past February. That such a pathetic confection of banal sentimentality can be passed off unchallenged as serious thinking about any aspect of the real world confirms the utter cynicism of the ruling class and their contempt for American citizens. It suggests that the oligarchs who now run the show are rightly confident that the decades-long, cult-Marxist pedagogy practiced in our schools and universities has done its mind-crippling work. It enables this simulacrum President to slip the evidence of their ongoing usurpations past a public ignorant of history, indifferent to logic, addicted to passive entertainment with a rube-like gullibility to swallow the latest propaganda line.

To grasp the full extent of the arrogance and malevolence buried just below the surface of these astonishingly insidious remarks one should read them in their entirety. I would, however, point you to this extract from it below to get the foul taste of just how crude and deceitful they are.

We are in the midst of a fundamental debate about the future and direction of our world. We’re at an inflection point between those who argue that. . . autocracy is the best way forward. . . and those who understand that democracy is essential. . . . Historians are going to. . . write about this moment as an inflection point. . . And I believe that — every ounce of my being — that democracy will and must prevail. We must demonstrate that democracies can still deliver for our people in this changed world. Democracy doesn’t happen by accident. We have to defend it, fight for it, strengthen it, renew it. We have to prove that our model isn’t a relic of our history.

The first sentence is a flat-out lie. There is no “debate,” fundamental or otherwise, that “we are in the midst of.” Debates are not allowed these days. All the powerful organs at Biden’s disposal — the MSM, Big Tech, corporate heads, government agencies — have colluded and imposed censorship to ensure that there is no debate. The premise of a “debate” is that the outcome is decided by the better of competing narratives of the question at hand. But, we’re told that only one narrative is permitted: all others are “misinformation,” smeared as “conspiracy theories.” The New York Times has pronounced the First Amendment obsolete and assumed the benevolent role of Big Brother to protect us from those “false narratives” that undermine “our democracy.” 

“Democracy.” The constant littering of this word in the talking points of the smart set is intended to make us go weak-kneed in reverence and blind to the misconduct and deceit all around us that goes unchallenged. 

“Those who argue that. . . autocracy is the best way forward.” No one, of course, is making this argument: this is the straw man Biden learned from his old boss, Barack Obama. At least he spared us Obama’s “Let me be clear” trope of head-fakery. Nevertheless, Biden, whose brain appears to have been extracted and replaced by a coagulum of Bud Light and Hamburger Helper, dispenses howlers like this with no embarrassment. He can because no one in the establishment cares what he says — no matter how incoherent or deranged, it is a useful distraction from what they are up to.

Ironic is that every aspect of his Presidency forms a compelling image of autocracy. His inauguration, with the concertina wire, the barriers, and the vetted army troops to cosset the huddled masked-men on the inaugural platform made you think of Latin American generals, post-coup, installing the chosen “strongman.” The only thing missing was a general’s uniform on Biden with lots of braids and medals and troops goose-stepping down Pennsylvania Avenue. Meanwhile, our KGB agents continue to hunt down the “enemies of democracy” who showed up at the Capitol to protest on January 6. The Capitol now appears to be in permanent lockdown to protect it from the demos who make up “our democracy.”

But to continue. We must consider “every ounce of my being,” ponder the weightiness of all those ounces of sleazy decrepitude, and speculate about what they could have to do with this frenzied outpouring about “democracy.”

You will have to admit: “democracy” has never before received such a fulsome, albeit mystifying tribute. 

“Democracy”: 

“Is essential.” For what? “Will and must prevail.” Or what? “Can still deliver [what?] for our people in this changed [in what way?] world.” “Doesn’t happen by accident.”

Out pours a succession of active verbs — “defend,” “fight,” “strengthen,” “renew” — that “we” must be about to “prove” that “democracy” is not “a relic of our history.” Who exactly the militant, energized “we” are, charged to rescue “our model” from “relic-hood,” remained undisclosed.

You can buy Stephen Paul Foster’s novel Toward the Bad I Kept on Turning here.

Other than confusion, fatigue, and embarrassment, what else would someone be left with after hearing this? As this clump of verbiage heaved itself out of Biden, delivered with his usual blustery and fake earnestness, you can’t help but wonder what thoughts were going through the minds of his audience of “the world’s most senior decision-makers.” This is the euphemism for “rich, powerful oligarchs” employed on the MSC website. Angela Merkel, Emmanuel Macron, Boris Johnson, António Guterres, Ursula von der Leyen, John F. Kerry, and Bill Gates were among the most illustrious participants — a veritable rouges gallery of famous, ambitious mischief-makers loaded up with way too much power and many plans to make us miserable for our own good.

Biden’s remarks to the “world’s most senior decision-makers” are worth careful inspection because they perfectly represent the corruption of language used by the ruling class elites.

The words they chose and the sentences they compose are not intended to illuminate any aspect of reality. Their language is a tool of obfuscation and deception. They employ high-minded abstractions to disguise the premising of their decisions and policy-making based entirely on calculations of self-interest and power maximization. All of the belabored, annoying “democracy” talk in this gathering of oligarchs is a smokescreen for a step up in further usurpation. “Democracy” is the crown jewel in the mumbo jumbo they use to distract us from the wreckage they are about. The word itself, devoid of meaning, ritualistically chanted, remains the favorite verbal charm of the recently installed Pied Piper of Babylon on the Potomac. Thus, we arrive at Biden’s dopey peroration: “So let’s get together and demonstrate to our great, great-grandchildren, when they read about us, that democracy — democracy — democracy functions and works, and together, there is nothing we can’t do. So let’s get working.”

Who is the “us”? Who is the “we” summoned to get “working”? There is no “we” — it’s them. What they are planning to “do” to us?

A lot.

Here is a sample: “I’ve ordered the halting of withdrawal of American troops from Germany. I’m also lifting the cap imposed by the previous administration on the number of U.S. forces able to be based in Germany.” 

Why do we need any American troops in Germany? Why should American taxpayers shell out to protect Germans in rich, powerful Germany from non-existent foreign enemies? Because without an important someone far away who needs “protection,” the myrmidons who run the US Government’s defense industry would have to shrink it down to a size that was commensurate with the actual needs of the American people who have to pay for it. And that works well for the latter-day German Junkerettes who are still searching their closets and dragging out the Nazis in hiding. They are happy to let the Americans pretend to protect them and keep “democracy alive” in places where it has long stopped breathing. It frees them up to finish off traditional Deutschland, open the gates and turn it into a multicultural zoo — yes, and to purge der deutschen Sprache of gender distinctions. It’s a win for Führerin Merkel. It’s a win for the boys and girls members of the invitation-only Council of Foreign Relations club. 

Back home, though, here is what “let’s get working” means. Forget “democracy.” How do you spell “serfdom”? “My first presidential national security memorandum focused on surging health and humanitarian responses to defeat COVID-19 and to better prevent and prepare for the next pandemic.”

If this doesn’t scare the bejesus out of you, nothing will. The lockdowns and massive wealth transfers response to COVID-19 has yet to succeed in “defeating” the virus. But Old White Joe is already talking about the “next pandemic” on the horizon. What do you think that “to better prevent and prepare” for it is going to mean for your daily life in “our democracy” — you know, your freedom of association, freedom of speech, freedom to travel, freedom to pursue your livelihood and operate your business? The “19” version was a dress rehearsal for what will be coming down the pike. You don’t have to be clairvoyant to predict that the draconian measures already in place to justify combating the coronavirus will be rolled out and muscled up whenever someone somewhere starts coughing or gets a touch of what the Germans call der Durchfall.

Yes, we are talking war, comrades. In a recent White House briefing, Biden unveiled his “wartime” strategy to defeat the coronavirus. “This is a wartime undertaking,” he said. Particularly ominous if you reflect on this announcement for a moment is the fact that war brings out the worst in people who already are the sorts who should never be trusted: professional politicians. Woodrow Wilson, FDR, LBJ, Nixon, George W. Bush — they all used war to cover spectacular abuses of power and to rain down death and destruction in countries that posed no threat to the American people. Vietnam, anyone?

Now, yet another “war” from another conniving “boss” with a fifty-year history of proving that you should not believe a word he says. “Help is on the way,” he says. Meanwhile, 900,000 people filed for unemployment the week before this “declaration of war.” 

Is the “enemy” in this war a virus, or the “deplorables” that put Trump in office who now must be taught who really is in charge?

Biden’s “war on corona” will join George W. Bush’s “war on terrorism,” yet another “war” that never ends, a war that loads up the war-makers with more arbitrary power and strips away your freedoms and your opportunities to live a normal life.

As I have previously argued, the “public health dictatorship” is fully in place. Resisting it begins with resisting the language used to disguise the tyranny, by refusing to believe the declarations and promises of men and women whose careers are built on lies. The propaganda machine seems to be all-powerful, but as The Saker points out in a recent Unz post, the last two decades of U.S. governance resemble the final years of the Soviet Union. Lying systems eventually collapse. There is hope in resistance.

    Why do we need any American troops in Germany? Why should American taxpayers shell out to protect Germans in rich, powerful Germany from non-existent foreign enemies?

    The Germans love Russians and wait for Russian “liberators” to come and save them from the grip of the “American Zionism”/US occupation. In case of any conflict between US and Russia, the Germans would shoot the hated “Amis” in the back and greet brave Russians with flowers.

    Much more sense it is to build military union with Poland, because the Poles would fight alongside with Americans,and not against them.

      I think you’re right. Poland and Hungary are certainly worthy of our support. Recall the nobama refused to allow defensive weaponry to be stationed in Poland that was previously scheduled. biden is of the same mind to simply reverse anything President Trump achieved. I do wonder why there was never any discussion about why biden never served in the armed forces? President Trump is nearly the same age and his deferrment was challenged vigorously in the press as was the actions of W Bush and Mittens Romney. biden gets the kid glove treatment because his sons served, but that’s not him. Anyone know the background? I looked for anything online and saw nothing.

        Biden’s sons did not “serve” anything but themselves in the military. Beau Biden was Delaware attorney General, and, like Puff Bootyjudge, was gifted with a phony uniform and rank to go spend a few months in complete safety and comfort at a support base overseas, and be photographed holding an M4 against the backdrop of a foreign landscape. Both received “direct commissions,” meaning that they never even had to go through any basic training type of experience. Just a quick lesson on how to return salutes and keep their weapon on “safe.” Both continued to hold their political offices while “serving” overseas.

        Beau Biden’s bronze star is more of a sham and more offensive than Beau Bergdahl’s promotion to sergeant. I have no idea why Bootyjudge and Beau Biden’s “service” was not more scrutinized by their political opposition. I suppose nobody who had never worn a uniform wanted to be exposed to the media pushback, but I think the pushback would have been surprisingly muted, because it was a discussion the left did not want to have

      As an “American” of german descent, I can’t say the Germans are particularly wrong in their feelings toward the US. Why would they ever trust us? At every turn the US regime works against the interests of European people worldwide. Provoking Russia is the exact wrong thing to do.

      1. Grey Wolf says:
        March 5, 2021 at 12:07 am

        Maybe you´re right, and I really do not blame Germans for it. But why must Americans still station their troops in Germany “to defend it”, when the Germans do not want to defend themselves. The German Army, die Bundeswehr, in 70-80´s one of the most powerful armies in the world, and surely the second in the whole NATO, is now almost non-existent. The military industry is totally “converted” to “peaceful production”. The Germans do not have enough operational tanks, aircrafts and U-Boots, the system of territorial army (Heimatschutz) is totally destroyed. Die Bundeswehr is able maybe only to humanitarian missions. This is not bad, but not enough for the army.
        And they do not have combat spirit, no will to fight. They only want “refugees welcome”. They are totally subverted by the Left, the Greens and other “democrats”. I do not think anyway, that the Americans are guilty for the situation with the “refugees” in Germany.

        1. Walter says:
          March 5, 2021 at 10:27 am

          Instead of ‘defend’ you can also read ‘occupy’. That would be just part of the comprehensive action to keep Germany under non-German domination. Germany had to even agree to not question the Allied version of history in 1991, to assent to the mutilation of its territory after 1945, to not seek legal action (as useless as that would be) to recover some of the losses caused by the actions of the occupying powers after the war.
          It is quite possible that the post-war regime there needs an armed guard and that that is the reason for the continued presence of foreign troops on German soil.

      You’re actually right about that.
      You bombed our cities to smithereens, then you foce-fed us liberalism after ‘generously’ ditching the Morgentau plan by small hats to exterminate us through sterilization.
      Nearly every degenerate trend of the last 60 years emerged in your country and arrived here a few years later through your cultural hegemony.
      Your ‘civil saints’ MLK and Rosa Parks seemed strange to us at first, as we had no negroes here, but then the regime you installed here just imported them en masse so they too could fight against the bigoted natives for the ‘noble cause of anti-racism’.

      Your troops are not here to ‘protect us’ but to ensure that, in case ‘Ivan’ should snap and unleash his rage against your government, we are the ones to get blown up once again and not you yourselves, or rather, your elites, as you ‘flyover-country hicks’ matter just as much to them as your average ‘kraut’.

    Admit it, this pandemic caught everyone flat-footed. No one, left or Right, had a plan.

    So say you are the government, and an infectious disease sweeps your land. What would/should be your “correct” response??

    Quarantine everyone? Quarantine only the infected? Make everyone wear masks and limit crowding? Vaccinate everyone quickly? Or don’t do any of these and let the grim reaper take his toll of the elderly and weaklings?

    My point here is that everyone on the Right is criticizing masks and quarantine, but they would have been just as critical if nothing at all were done. So what should have been done???

    “Do nothing” would be the Libertarian way. Would that suit the Right? I have a feeling that if that had been implemented, many on the Right would have their mouths open about it.

    Libertarianism only works if people are scarce. Scarce people is not the real world.

    Rockwell said “100% government is OK as long as it is 100% good government”. He was approximately correct.

      The time to be tough was in the early stages when we had very little data on symptoms, mortality and transmissibility. Al borders should have been sealed tight. You quarantine whole nations from each other so that you don’t have to quarantine the people within those nations. The time to lift all restrictions and allow full mobility, at least amongst those under 60 without underlying health conditions, and adopt a normal herd immunity approach would have been around May/June when the data was in and it was clear this virus, at 0.23% mortality (and orders of magnitude less for the healthy under 60s), was within the envelope of regular influenza.

      What did we get instead? A ruling elite which was lenient on protective measures in the early stages when they should have been tough, and tough post-Gompertz peak when it was time to be lenient. It’s almost as if they desperately wished that the virus would have every chance to enter all western nations so that they could then use it as a pretext for the vast power- and wealth-grabs they’ve been making ever since. Either they wished it, or they’re grossly incompetent. My money’s on the former.

      1. Close airports in late February.
      2.make vaccines immediately available widely through experiment trials designed to be cover for an actual widespread deployment. Call it a trail but make it so widespread that it’s a blanket in certain cities and regions.
      3. Surround and cut off large metro areas like NYC and Chicago.

      These things were things I advocated in February. Oh and nuke Wuhan in early January too. I keed. The rightwing wanted to use the Pandemic to crackdown on blacks and open society Jews. The Likudnic administration wanted to grift off masks and lockdowns.

        The Covid-19 is a fully consequent outcome of Globalization, to which all elites of almost all countries (big and important countries, at least) have contributed. This virus is to the same extent a medical and a political problem.

    “Democracy” is the smiley face and peace sign masking the blood soaked, life crushing hand and visage of “corporate monopoly.” An Empire of good intentions with a nuclear arsenal hellbent on “Full Spectrum Dominance”. The original East India Company et. al never really disbanded, they just assumed different forms. The fruits of their benevolence (violence) for all are everywhere. Will this ever pass? I would like to believe so.

    1. Captain John Charity Spring MA says:
      March 4, 2021 at 7:38 pm

      The East India Company wasn’t hypocritical. You also saw several amazing men like Hastings, Clive and Jardine. Clive captured Bengal and the Carnatic at the cost of a a handful of English lives.

      Modern white men are inglorious pygmies in comparison to these audacious chancers.

    They haven’t slipped it past though. Even 90 IQ normies know they’ve been scammed, and are pissed. What is stopping ‘reform’ is the Left has co-opted any potential leaders from taking charge and giving orders in order to morally justify what needs to be done. White people don’t chimp out as individuals, we chimp out as a society. The Left knows this, which is why they put so much effort into subverting and sabotaging real right wing leaders and movements from which leaders could arise.

    Remember Biden’s inauguration speech, where he literally stole JFK’s 1960 inauguration speech word by word. As Rush said, Biden is a senile clown, and he’s almost the system’s way of telling us this is what we deserve. I think a lot of them are having a good laugh over him leading us.
    Analogies to Hindenburg and Weimar? But Hindenburg was a capable general, although there is a whiff of Weimar now in America. We seem cursed with old boomers who simply won’t leave government.
    A lot of talk on this thread is about Germany. I was stationed there 1974-76, and there were 200,000 troops then. I think it’s about 30,000 now, mostly support, medical, Air Force…none of the combat divisions in my day. We are in Germany because, like they said of NATO, to keep the Yanks in, the Russians out, and the Germans down. A salient fact of American ‘liberation’ is that we never leave…well, we did in Vietnam, but that was an ‘oops.’ We built Cam Ramh bay naval base with the intention we’d be there forever. Guess what? The Russians used it as a port of call.
    I agree all U.S. forces should leave, and NATO should be disbanded or re-thought. It’s said we bear all the burden and Europe doesn’t, but I think that’s intentional. We wanted Europe weak and unable to fend for itself, and the Europeans have gone along with it, since we neutered them.
    As for Russia and Germany, it’s true many Germans prefer Russia. A lot of them still praise ‘Gorby’ for ending the Cold War and not Reagan. As for Poland, Poland and Germany should get closer…when Poland gives back Silesia, Pomerania, and East Prussia, which they stole from Germany. Poland did a lot to start WWII, and always had their hands out for more land.
    I don’t hate Poles, but they need to give back that land.
    As Hans Schmidt said in his autobiography S.S. Panzergrenadier, the Poles always look to some outside power to help them (France, England), and the power always sells them short. The Poles are looking to America in the same way, and believe me, no one should trust America to be faithful…and in the meantime, we’ll export a degenerate culture Macron is complaining of.
    Schmidt felt Poland needed to come to accommodation with Germany and Russia.
    Germany and Poland have had a rocky history, but they have worked together in the past, especially Prussia and Poland. In Fontane’s Napoleonic novel Vor Der Sturm, a Prussian and Polish aristocratic family join together and share each other’s culture easily.
    I think Germany was destined to be the major European power under Hitler, but things went wrong. As Sebastian Haffner wrote in The Meaning of Hitler, in 1940, the European community had essentially been created, and that was really all Hitler could have hoped for. The idea of a Drang each Osten was unworkable. How many Germans really wanted to go east and colonize Russia? it was like trying to push Germany back to the Teutonic Knights.
    There’s a real concern Biden might push us into a general war…as commanded to do so by his puppet masters. A good, American war…with lots of bombing and some commando raids…but this time, we might pick someone who’ll shoot back.

      Hitler had to stop after the annexations of Sudetenland. The annexation of the rest-Czechoslovakia was wrong. Prof. Hans Günther had explained it in his book “Mein Eindruck von Adolf Hitler”.

        If he’d dramatically retired over his gall bladder troubles he’d be considered universally to be a great and good man.

        Would have been a good idea to hand over power to Goering and enjoy life. I think a trade pact like the EEC would have flowed from that and someone like De Gaulle and Heidrich would have been in cooperatively in charge of a rather peaceful proto EU.

    “As this clump of verbiage heaved itself out of Biden……” This sentence reminded me of one of Charlie Rose’s talk shows. He had Senator Joe Biden on as a guest. Rose asked Biden a question concerning some aspect of U.S. foreign policy and Biden, true to form, started in with the “clump of verbiage”… He must have gone on for 15 minutes straight, spouting out utter bullshit from the top of his head or at the other end of his body,etc. I just marveled at the mans capacity for spouting long lines of B.S. At least some of the more super stars of evangelist preachers are amusing when they do this same stuff. Biden is an arrogant and ignorant BORE.
