On The Nature Of Force.


I have already stated that force is the destroyer of morals.
But what is the 'force' of the social engineer?

The crudest form is bad law; this is law that seeks to achieve a social(ie statistical) end by violating the free actions of individuals.
Good law restrains harmful actions.
Bad law labels freedoms 'harmful' then seeks to restrain them.

More subtly, there are forms of force which are designed to bypass even the most cursory of reasoned arguments and discussions; these are strictly the domain of criminals, since you don't discuss broken windows with a burglar in your front room.

But where a mere criminal claims to want to take your property, there is form of criminality which is purest violation, gratuitous evil for the sake of evil.
The Moors Murderers of the 60s British Peak District killed children for the sake of hearing them cry.
This was the outrage that led to them being imprisoned for natural life, and the criminal apologists often point out that had they been executed the bodies of some of the children would never have been recovered.
Will somebody please think of the children(without thinking of the children)?
It is becoming increasingly common in England to find oneself the target of purely gratuitous evil.

And this evil is being multiplied and magnified by the application of force in all its forms to people at large; the rubbish thinks that if their 'leaders' can do it, they can jump onto the bandwagon and acquire popular delusions about their intended victims in order to disguise their naked aggression in clothes of virtue, being able to convince themselves that they are doing something truly awful for the sake of some sort of good.

To strip them of these illusions is to remove all incentive for honest introspection, and leave them at the self-destructive mercy of their chronic impulses.

Depending on the level of their evil obsessiveness, they will stop, or collapse, or go into an advanced stage of psychopathological expression.

Bringing this state of affairs about is one of the more difficult and dangerous methods of destroying the problem.
This is why self-control is paramount, as one needs to be able to bridge crisis points in order to ascertain the resources and ability of the aggressor.
When they are halted, if they work with a team, the psychological and physical expense of assembly, along with exposure to conventional detection, will tend to cause an inevitable loss of initiative and momentum.
The role is reversed.

But nobody said this was safe.
