History

  • “Fascist Estate” teaches us about the past

    The now-defunct group “Fascist Estate” took some of its inspiration from Hitler, but not all of it. It’s believed most fascists don’t because it’s not the point. The raw energy or power that comes from their worldview is what matters. They also believe in redesigning themselves to move away from any criticisms people can make. This is reflected in a meetings culture and private dialogues held by fascists.

    Such an outlook helps them to avoid the mistakes of their forbears, and to continually improve. This is central to any fascists activity. The theory of evolution plays a large role in many of the lives of the people that I’ve come across. This is a thread that makes it all make sense.

    Ken Gott, the last and final leader of “Fascist Estate”, was himself more of a neo-fascist. It’s a term that denotes a “new” breed of fascist emerging from the old. He held to more advanced concepts in his mind than his peers. This is why he led the group for so long. He was known to be intelligent. His ideas fitted into any developing state of affairs. He always had a wise word to give.

    He had plans to change the name of the group in future. It had to progress first. He knew it had started out in an extremely simple way, and had a long journey ahead. His entrance was at a turning point when it might have done so. There were others ready to stop him. These efforts made sure he was slowed, confronted, and eventually stopped in his tracks. He didn’t turn it into a fully fledged fighting force in time.

  • The Queen & her people: A disloyal Army

    The Queen (Her Late Majesty) had a very disloyal Army, but they still attended to her to keep up appearances. They marched in public. They lived in the UK as if they had done nothing wrong. They were, in fact, ruining every institution that had a base in this country.

    They threatened every one of her Prime Ministers. They attacked public officials. They kidnapped staff of public institutions. They stole food. They robbed banks. They took children. They burned schools. They trashed cars. In essence, they were a fool card in a full deck.

    The issues transcended normal concerns. It draw widespread criticism and concern everywhere in the world. However, due to selfishness inherent in every nation, no one came to our aid. It was left to the brave people of the country to fight them off. The Army was then slowly and progressively transformed from the inside out.

  • Onsite: The Museum of English Rural Life

    The lazy days of the present are a far cry from hard days in the past. The majority of the work was back-breaking. It’s true that people built the country by the sweat of their brow. However, there’s charm to it still. The old ways often bring out the humour of life, too.

    If you take a look, there’s a lot to see about life back then. There’s interesting machinery and still further politics that made sense of the day. It’s not easy to take in all at once because there’s so much to find out. Yet it’s worth a try because life is enriched by it.

  • Westminster Week: Getting on

    Wednesday

    The Holocaust Memorial Bill is a hotly contested issue in the UK. It raises tensions. There are some that hate it, others that oppose it. There are groups that support it. There are some that believe in it.

    In the Lords, many members know of people whose loved ones were lost in the Holocaust. It’s less a matter of stance than principle.

    Baroness Altmann says:

    “At this stage, after so many years of such regrettably bitter controversy, I sincerely believe that if this project – as proposed – with support of both the current government and the opposition, does not go ahead now, there will no memorial, no new visitor or education centre, to explain what has happened.”

  • Revealed: A Turkish fascist plot

    It’s sane to believe fascism still exists, but its possibilities are hugely diminished. This is due to huge improvements in human governance, and the development of systems that make us safer.

    It’s also because of a degenerative problem in fascism itself. It doesn’t have the same strength as before. People believe more against it than for it, and this makes it struggle.

    Take for example a group called Tukin, otherwise known as The Dormant. They used to exist in Turkey, as a sort of protection racket. It’s since disbanded, but the memory of it remains.

    Tukin “Struggle” levels

    It had an hierarchy, called a “Struggle”, which comprised of members at different levels or stages of commitment. Most had a superiority complex which actually made up most of its activity.

    The names of its levels indicate the way it saw the world, and how fascism is practiced. It’s more of a mysticism than a politics of ideology, and it imagines a better state of life than of power.

    The movement is lateral, and not a physical struggle. There’s little to no will to takeover, as it’s seen to be a natural way of life. The outcome of its community means life has a form, or a shape.
