Lysenkoism, Tommy and the Impact of Political Religion

Our Israeli correspondent MC has a few thoughts about the degradation of Western political culture, especially as it applies to recent events in the UK.

Lysenkoism, Tommy and the Impact of Political Religion

by MC

Lysenkoism is the politicisation of science as practised under Stalin (and others). It consisted of using pseudo-science to conform with, and confirm, political will. It is a tool of totalitarian politics where ‘scientific’ truth must be subjected to political convenience.

We now see around us a new breed of Lysenkoism where ‘truth’ is made a servant of political religion. For the sake of this essay I will call this phenomenon TheresaMayism, in honour of the current status of British Justice now as a “farce and a sham” as predicted in the hilarious film farce Water starring Michael Caine.

The British form of the socialist religion requires that all we really need is lurve, that ‘justice’ must be reshaped to accommodate political religion, and that therefore Tommy must die (we do so hope not). The judge basically washed his hands of the matter in true Pontius Pilot fashion.

But TheresaMayism is not just a function of Downing Street. It is a major part of Brussels theology as well, and we even find it sprouting profusely in the US Democrat dirt.

As readers must be aware, we, the citizens of Sderot are being cruel to the poor people of Gaza who want to “eat the livers of those besieging” (he is talking about us Sderotians).

The object of the Hamas attack on the border fence just down the road is to get infiltrators into Israel and to kill us. But also to provoke a TheresaMayist response from the rest of the world by hiding the murderous intent behind a false flag of ‘peaceful demonstration’ by women and children.

Last night they machine-gunned us, Yes, they turned a .50 cal in the direction of Sderot and sprayed us with heavy MG bullets, I heard two of them strike as I sat here at my desk reading. Today we have had multiple rocket and mortar attacks.

The religion of socialism behind TheresaMayism hates Jews. To them we are ‘white’ unlike our Palestinian counterparts who are ‘brown’. TheresaMayists know their white from their wrong because everything is black and white as defined by their (political) religious affiliation. Labour is no better; they support Hamas, whilst pretending not to, and so the joooz are whitewashed and Hamas is honoured.

So who killed the Pallies? Israeli snipers, to be sure.

Who sent them to be killed?

Well, TheresaMayism dictates that we must obfuscate that question and tell Israel to use ‘restraint’ instead.

So what happens if Israel uses restraint? Will the Kibbutz of Nahal Oz be attacked and the civilian population massacred? To TheresaMayism that is obviously an acceptable theological consequence; after all, only ‘brown’ lives matter.

I am glad that the Trump administration did not fall for it, neither did our friends in Oz, or the Hungarians, or the Czechs (or is it now Czechians?).

Whilst Hamas is Hamas, and we know what to expect from them, it is tragic for me to see the country of my birth degrade into a fraudulent religious parody. It appears we are supposed only to believe in ‘diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’ and ‘lurve’, and to despise ‘Jesus’, ‘hate’ and ‘Tommy’. Gone is the Church of England with its Grace and Salvation, to be replaced by the gospel of Marx and Allah with a little bit of Mein Kampf (jihad) on the side.

When the rule of law becomes whimsical, we know that a religion is behind it. Under Sharia law the ‘judge’ hears the case and Allah tells him, the judge, who is guilty or not. In a TheresaMayist environment the judge hears the case, and if the defendant is a ‘Tommy’ then he knows that he can apply the principles of political religious whimsy and will not be held accountable. The government is with us; kill the Jews Tommies (oh, I so hope not).

The media also tend to be fellow travellers, having their own meaningless jargon to which they paste ‘memes’ gleaned from TheresaMayism. So ‘right-wing’, for example, has come to mean anybody who is not a TheresaMayist and is looking for political truth rather than political religion.

‘Fake news’ is anything that smacks of reality from a non-TheresaMayist source, and a ‘fascist’ is anybody who holds liberal conservative views (i.e. small-government proponents).

The main secret of the TheresaMayist approach is in its use of saturation TV propaganda, especially from that seminary of religio-political bias at the BBC, the main state agitprop agency and pulpit.

The Christian religion in the UK, and indeed in the whole of Europe, is in a shameful state. It is unable to distinguish between St. Theresa and St. Karl (Marx, that is). Indeed, many Jews too are taken in, but the Jews are having a hard time coping with St. Jeremy (of Corbyn) who won’t listen to their pleas. They just can’t get their heads around the fact that the Labour party that welcomed them to safety died decades ago and has dumped them, to be replaced by a New Labour of opposite religious tolerances and (Gulf/Pakistani/Soros) funding; Jews need not apply.

TheresaMayism is a plastic doll in a phantasy world. It’s fantastic and it’s fashion-conscious. It has a different outfit for every occasion, and you can take it anywhere. You can even dress it up as a Gypsy, an acid queen, in order to tear Tommy’s soul apart and break his heart. Anyone for pinball? Or, more likely, Uncle Ernie…

  1. Our war cry must be: Tommy can you hear me…I am here to cheer you. Tommy can you see me…I am here to free you. Ohhhhh Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy…..

  2. Lysenkoism could also typify the postulate of glow ball warming, which is now climate change, (their $0.02 worth). You confess this as your loyalty pledge or you do not graduate from most colleges.
    I would suggest that Lysenkoism first emerged in the promulgation of evolution as our raison d’etre as humans with anthropologists trying to make monkeys out of us. If we evolved then there is no god who created us that we must account to. Failure or refusal to confess evolution as part of your belief system will have you shown the door at many colleges and corporations.
    George Orwell may have had this as the theme of 1984 in his dire warning of what would happen when the State seizes the discourse and beliefs that are espoused by its citizens. What China has become is a good example of this. The US almost went down this same path until Trump showed up, which is why he is so roundly hated.

  3. Nice references to “Tommy” in the last paragraph. Especially all those Uncle Ernies ruining all those girls’ lives.

  4. Glad you and yours are unscathed, MC.

    It may be my age, but the equivalence drawn between Theresa May and socialism seems odd. Her government is intent on privatising our NHS, a process which, I know, was begun under Blair, but I’d hardly call him a socialist either.

    As for the current Labour leadership, they do qualify, and as you say, they’ve got the antisemitism to prove it. It’s an old story; even the great George Orwell was tainted by this form of bigotry.

    • To me, the Conservative party is now soft-socialist and has been since Major, the signing of Maastrict slamed the door on true conservatism. This has let politics in the UK unbalanced.

      As for the NHS, I have recently had the opportunity to compare the Israeli insurance based system with my overnight on a trolley courtesy of the NHS. The differences in emergency care were startling. In the NHS no thought at all was given to ‘comfort’ even if the treatment was effective. In Israel I was in the operating theatre within 30 minutes and then a proper bed etc.

      My view is that most Europeans are now so dependant on public/government institutions such as the NHS that they become enslaved by them.

      • Insurance-based systems allow those who can’t afford the premiums to fall through the cracks, maybe caught by charities if they’re lucky. Sorry about your trolley experience, though.

  5. Dear MC. the (in)famous hand washing was done by Pontius Pilate (English), Pontius Pilatus (Latin), Πόντιος Πιλάτος (Greek). Please, correct.

    • FTR (for the record) Pontius Pilate declared Jesus to be innocent and without guilt three times (the number of witness). The Chief Priest and Pharisees (the Jews with a capital J) wanted Jesus dead, period. The Jews called a blood curse down on their head while saying, “We have no king but Caesar!” Pontius gave into the crowd to prevent a riot and publicly washed his hands of any of the blood-guilt that would have been his from the death of an innocent man. He got the last word in with the statement of Jesus’ crime that was nailed above His head on the cross, which was written in Latin, Green, and Hebrew. In Hebrew, the capitalized letters read “YHWH” which the Pharisees objected to and to which Pilate replied, “What I have written I have written.” So there you go. I have always wondered who was washing their hands of whom. 🙂

      • I rather think political danger was foremost in Pilate’s mind, rather than “Blood Guilt”. Had he released Jesus he could have been accused of releasing an enemy of Caesar. That was the clever argument the Jewish leaders used.

    • My apologies, I am seriously dyslexic and sometimes it overcomes even the the spell-checker

  6. I’m so happy to hear from you. I always get nervous when things heat up down there.
    I would like to bring to reader’s attention pizzaIDF.com. This is a charity that brings pizza, drinks, purim baskets, etc to soldiers serving on the front line. They locally source so they help the border communities as well. I have known them for many years and know that they are a reputable org. So, if you want to do something to help please consider pizzaIDF.com.

    • This link is to news directly from Sderot:

      http://www.hopeforsderot.com/

      I donate my Amazon smile money to Sderot -doesn’t amount to much & who knows when Bezos will decide it’s a hate group – and then switch between Sderot and the IDF pizzas (I’m on the mailing list, too).

      If there is still a place that helps the military in Afghanistan, I don’t know of it.

  7. The same is happening in the USA. The Democrat Party, long the haven of Jews, is in the process of throwing them away for the expanding Muslim vote and mid-east oil money. Stupidly, the american jews think that they are still safe when the trends are unmistakeable..

  8. British foreign policy is very distorted, contradictory to itself, subserviant but bullyish and so on, and that criticism is obviously applicable to those who enact British foreign policy, most visibly its leaders.

    By being this way they manage to get it wrong for just about anyone who wants to make a case against them, and would simply do better to stay out of the fray, as their actions are not without repercussion.

    I am saying this because what you write may be correct or tangible, but there are also counter arguments regarding the soa of Israel.

    In fact, I think most British people have become so confused on British foreign policy that they just close it off as all manipulated, that nothing which is said or done is to be taken as sincere or meaningful.

    That is to say, to be brutal, I could portray in argument that Israeli border policy is very close to UK government policy on political dissent. I won’t though because nor one nor the other deserves to be confused – a seperation of power is supposed to exist at the border of any nation.

    I think most people simply condemn all of the violence that is occuring in the middle east, without any great discretion one way or the other – it is beyond them, endless, has been going on one way or another since most people are able to remember, without any obvious resolution available, and seems to be set to continue that way indefinitely into the future.

    • According to the Bible the Philistines are descended from Mizraim=Egypt, yet according to some archeology they came to ‘Palestine’ from the Egean sea, which would make them one of the ancient Greek bunch. This correlates with the fact that ancient Greeks had giants in their armies, as well as their mode of warfare, that is the strongest fighter against the strongest fighter, the winner takes it all. This is obvious from the David vs Goliath fight.

      Abraham and Isaac made peace with the Philistines, and the Philistines were not to be destroyed like other Cannanites, which implies that Philistines are not Cannanites.

      As far as I am concerned, the real question is who are the Palestinians? Because the real Philistines should probably be of the ancient Crete/Greece/Turkey lot, not of the Arabian lot. That is my guess. And they should be sea people as well, not land dwellers living on the coast 🙂

  9. Seems to me political religion is all the rage now that actual indigenous religion was pretty much relegated to the dustbin in the Lands of the Setting Sun.

    “Czechians” would count us Moravians. Fraid it ain’t gonna catch on, though. Nice try, I must say! 🙂

  10. We owe Israel thanks for this reason. Israel is a modern state with a distinct national identity. Faced with systematic border incursions, including women and children thrown into the front line of the mob advancing on the border, Israel did what it needed to to protect its borders: machine guns, mines, barbed wire, and snipers. The poignant point is that Israel is taking the heat for doing what modern states must do: protect their borders at all costs.

    The international organizations, the EU, UN, ICHJ, have one thing in common: they attempt to create binding laws and regulations which supposedly protect the individual refugee, but in fact make it so expensive, cumbersome, and haphazard that countries find it almost impossible to both protect their borders and citizens and follow the myriad laws purporting to represent “human rights”. The EU, for one, is quite clear that its motivation is to encourage migration to all countries, like it or not.

    So, it’s entirely consistent with the philosophy and history of international organizations, that Israel is criticized for injuring civilian women and children. This same meme is used whenever any country takes steps to protect itself.

    In the future, with the billions of children being born in Africa, any country wishing to maintain its identity and population will absolutely have to kill people, including women and children, or allow them to die without intervening. Tens of thousands of violent people attempting to cross your border leaves you no choice.

    Israel happens to be particularly vulnerable. It’s a small country, created through a UN resolution, and the subject of constant accusations, boycotts, and sanctions. Fortunately, Israel is strong enough to defy the international resolutions, and can defend itself militarily very well. But, as the country in the forefront, prior to Hungary and Poland, of resisting international pressure for harmful immigration, Israel set an example for civilized countries.

    Israel, by making its Jewish identity explicit, while observing the rights of non-Jews, set the example for countries like Hungary, which explicitly declare themselves Christian countries, protective of the rights of Jews, Muslims and atheists.

  11. What is happening to British culture of freedom of speech is frightening. Meanwhile suburbs of London and other towns became no-go territories, subject to sharia courts and acid attacks, police seems more occupied with silencing “islamophobes” rather protecting indigenous teens from their “asian” gang-rapists. If Theresa May is the best product of British conservatism opposed to Corbin’s extremist, Churchill must be spinning in his grave. Albion appears to have lost its identity.

  12. I believe that the current round of skirmishes along the Gaza border are inspired by the images of hordes of refugees breaking down the border fences of various European nations. The purpose to test whether Israel has suffered a similar lack of nerve.

    If so, it would be the advent of a new intifada – temporarily unarmed masses throwing themselves at the borders, at the fences of settlements, at the doors of houses.

    If not, well, it’s more propaganda fuel. Hamas doesn’t mind sacrificing Palestinians for propaganda purposes.

  13. I’m glad MC used the phenomenon of Lysenko as an analogy for the terrible treatment of Tommy Robinson. GoV readers who are unfamiliar with Lysenko should research him: of all the murderous insanity of the Soviet Union, Lysenko’s murderously insane interference in the sphere of science and the politicisation of genetics in particular makes one’s head spin.

    • I did. It reminds me of the current politically correct “there is no biology” BS about gender/sex.

      Or (as someone else pointed out) climate “science”.

      Lysenko is alive and well in spirit.

      • My beloved, who lived in Australia for ten years, introduced me to the Australian writer and critic Robert Dessaix. (She’s a big fan- even got this autograph- and is disappointed that such a handsome man is gay. But I digress…) Here’s a quote from his 1994 essay “on travesty”, from his book (and so forth), p236, referring to English Departments in universities sending undergrads out on “research”:

        “Comically reversing the scientific method, for example, they send their students out to do ‘research’- that is, to find evidence to support the theory, as opposed to the old scientific idea of constructing therories from the evidence… so-called ‘researchers’ churn out their findings on gender, for example, with only a beginner’s smattering of genetics, neuronal science and biochemistry…”

        I daresay Jordan Peterson would enjoy this insight.

  14. Long live Israel! The so called “Joos” like Arch-Fiend Soros are a miniscule minority. We have to pay the consequences of that miniscule bunch. Arrogance is an affliction in any people. We have our own versions of miniscule minorities and like Israel get tarred with the same brush. Personally I like Jews- highly cultivated and intellectual.
