How Many Lies Will You Hear Today?

Wednesday, April 18, 2018 14:58

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

The system is used for churning out lies and getting people to believe them. They only need to fool a majority, or even a sizeable minority, for those who can see the lie to keep quiet. That’s why sourcing news in the main media is so dangerous. You will be convinced the lie is true by seeing everyone else falling for it…maybe for a very long time. It’s better to turn all those sources off, and keep your mind in a state of readiness to fend off what are clearly deliberate attacks on the truth flying at you all day every day.

Some lies are designed to get wars started. Others are simply out there to confuse you and waste your time. Like this one for example…..an article from Miles W Mathis exposing who’s behind the Flat Earth nonsense and why it never goes away.

It turns out the impetus for the original Flat Earth Society (the Zetetic Society) can be traced to the 1849 pamphlet and 1881 book attributed to Samuel Birley Rowbotham. Tellingly, he went by the moniker “Parallax”. Sounds like a modern online spook handle, doesn’t it? These people don’t change much: they hate to exist under their own names and always have to hiding behind some alias.

Anyway, he apparently went up and down England trying to convince people the Earth was flat. We are denied any information on Rowbotham’s background, but it’s worth noting that there are 7 Rowbothams and 106 Birleys listed at thepeerage.com. The Wikipedia page on him details many of the same lies, dissembling and rhetorical sleights-of-hand that one sees in the recent Flat Earth renaissance. The key to understanding who this Rowbotham was is where Wiki tells us that he started out as “an organiser of an Owenite commune in the Fens.” If you don’t know why that’s a towering red flag, see Miles’ paper on Engels and Owen.

[In fact, if you haven’t read it, stop now and go read it. The dirt on Owen starts at page 10.]

It’s not entirely clear which commune he was allegedly involved with, but it was probably the Cambridgeshire Colony , which was founded by Methodist minister William Hodson, who is a ghost but may have been related to another spook by the same name.

This colony clues us in on a few things about Owen and his movement, so it’s worth a short detour.

To being with, if we follow the link on Rowbotham’s page to ‘Owenism,’ we get this:

Utopian socialist economic thought such as Owen’s was a reaction to the laissez-faire impetus of

Malthusian Poor Law reform…

Owen’s Plan began as grandiose but otherwise not exceptionally unusual workhouse scheme to place the unemployed poor in newly built rural communities.The New Poor Law enacted in England in 1834 all but ended charity for the poor and required them to work in workhouses. So basically the Owenite plan simply tried to put a sugar coating on the idea of the workhouse.

Conditions there were presumably only marginally better than conditions in non-Owenist workhouses, but both followed the policy of ‘less eligibility,’ whereby the conditions in workhouses had to be worse than conditions outside so there was a deterrent to claiming poor relief.

Don’t get me wrong, I think the ideas of cooperatives and genuine profit-sharing are great. But that’s not what these tycoons like Owen had in mind, which Miles showed in his paper. Beyond that, these schemes—including the Cambridgeshire Colony—appear designed to completely discredit the idea that businesses could be operated cooperatively. Note that every single one of the socialist utopian communities mentioned on the Owenism Wikipedia page ended in failure fairly quickly. One of these was in Kendal, Ohio, whose Quaker residents included Mayhew Folger, his sister and her husband, Thomas Coffin.

All big spook families, as we have seen.

As if being destined for economic failure was not enough to discredit the idea of cooperative businesses and profit sharing, many of the people involved in these schemes promoted ideas and lifestyles that were anathema to working-class values. For example, a Daily Mail article on the Cambridgeshire Colony leads with this:

The long-lost site of an infamous Victorian colony of “free love” socialists which encouraged wife-swapping has been discovered by archaeologists.’ Yes, I’m sure wife-swapping went over really well with regular folk in 1835.

Other Owenites promoted radical atheism (another thing that Marx himself would later do to ensure that Marxism never gained traction among the working class), vegetarianism and in some cases spiritualism, which was of course a precursor to the Theosophy project. So here we can see the fingerprints of another project set out to discredit socialism. Is it any wonder that an early organizer of one of these communes went on to kick-start the Flat Earth project?
