Go out, and share the bad news.

Excerpt from Michael A. Hoffman's classic, Secret Societies and Psychological Warfare:
There are
essentially two forces competing for the hearts and minds of mankind. The first
is the old force of the orthodoxy of Church and Throne, reaction and authority.
Those who regard themselves as dissidents and rebels against the Establishment
have been taught by the Official Counter-Culture that it is from this
direction, from the ancient regime
that we can expect to encounter the greatest threat to liberty. We’ve been
trained to expect that the threat to freedom comes from Christian religious and
ethical orthodoxies, based on faith and authority.
But any half-way
competent student of deception will know that the greatest potential threat
always comes from the unsuspected direction. In this case from the force that
is misidentified and masked, that force which is fascism with a human face.
Perhaps more
important, there is one key principle of the psychology of mass mind control
missing from the old model of authority embodied by the early Fathers of the
Christian Church: they did not flatter and they did not come in disguise. The
core of primitive, orthodox Christianity’s belief system was anti-occult to the
marrow: it was the bad news about human nature. Not so the “revolutionary
liberators,” from the Soviet Communists, to the New Age groovers, who have
announced the delivery of humanity from the clutches of Reaction and Orthodoxy.
Of this “Church” of the Official Counter-Culture, Louis-Ferdinand Celine
observed in Mea Culpa, his seminal
essay on Bolshevism:
“Since the end of
religions, before this new (modern) altar, they have been swinging incense;
they have been intoxicating man with the sense of his own importance, with all
manner of rigmarole. Man has been made the whole Church. No longer can he see
anything that is told to him, just so long as it is flattering…
“The practical
superiority of the great Christian religions was that they did not try to
sugar-coat the pill. They did not try to throw dust in the eyes; they were not
looking for voters; they never felt the need of ingratiating themselves; they
did not wiggle their tails in an effort to please. They just seized Man in his
cradle, and broke the bad news to him, without reservation. They told him, ‘You
little shapeless stinker you, you can never be anything but filth. By birth you
are nothing but merde. Do you hear
me, you? That’s the evidence, that’s the principle of everything…However,
maybe…maybe…in scrutinizing the matter more closely…you have got one little
chance of winning a bit of pardon for being as you are - - so filthy, so
excremental, so unbelievable…
“That is, if you
can hold your chin up in the face of all the sorrows, all the afflictions, all
the ordeals, miseries and tortures you will have to face during your lifetime,
whether it be long or short. Always with perfect humility! Life, you louse, is
just one long, bitter ordeal! Don’t get out of breath! Don’t expect noon to
come at ten o’clock! Just try to save your soul, that is something in itself!
Maybe at the end of this Calvary of yours, if
you get to be a regular fellow, a hero in keeping your trap shut, you may be
saved by these principles…
“But even that is
not a sure thing…one little hair’s breadth less filthy when you come to croak
than when you were born…But don’t take too much for granted! That’s the whole
story! Watch your step! Don’t speculate on first and last things! For a turd,
that is the maximum!
“That was seriously
spoken. By real Church Fathers, who knew the tools of their trade, and did not
try to do tricks with mirrors.”
