I will begin with a further discussion about Janteloven
since it forms the Petri Dish in which social consensus grows. Without it the prevailing
WOKE movement which has originated in the Academy could not have taken hold of
prevailing thought. How does Janteloven (Tall Poppy Syndrome) work? How has it
captured the minds of so many where the need for a collective mindset has been used
to create social cohesion with blind obedience as the catalyst? Under the Laws
of Jante anyone who disagrees with the artificially created consensus will get
pounded down like a nail that must be driven flush. I have experienced what it
is like to be pounded but no matter how hard they try to drive me down the head
of my nail still dares to stick out from the faceless surface of the social consensus.
I asked ChatGPT, "Why is Janteloven so prominent in
Norway?"
ChatGPT responded, "Janteloven, often referred to as
the "Law of Jante," is a set of social norms and attitudes that
emphasize modesty, equality, and conformity in Scandinavian societies,
including Norway. It was popularized by Danish-Norwegian author Aksel Sandemose
in his novel "A Fugitive Crosses His Tracks" (En flyktning krysser
sitt spor) published in 1933. These norms are not actual laws but rather
cultural guidelines that have influenced social behavior in the region. Here
are a few reasons why Janteloven is prominent in Norway:
1. **Historical and Cultural Roots:** The concept of
Janteloven can be traced back to traditional rural communities in Scandinavia,
where communal harmony and conformity were highly valued. These values were
reinforced through generations and became ingrained in the culture.
2. **Social Equality:** Norway, like other Scandinavian
countries, places a strong emphasis on social equality. Janteloven reflects the
idea that no one is better than anyone else and that showing off or boasting is
discouraged. This promotes a sense of solidarity among the population.
3. **Avoidance of Hierarchy:** Janteloven discourages the
establishment of rigid social hierarchies. It promotes a more egalitarian
society where people are encouraged to be humble and not overly competitive
with one another.
4. **Collectivism:** Norwegian society values collectivism
and cooperation. Janteloven encourages people to prioritize the well-being of
the community over individual achievement.
5. **Cultural Influence:** Janteloven has been popularized
through literature and cultural references, making it a recognizable aspect of
Norwegian identity. Many Norwegians are familiar with the concept and its
underlying principles.
It's important to note that while Janteloven is influential
in Norwegian society, it is not universally embraced by all Norwegians, and its
impact may vary among individuals and in different contexts. Some people may
see it as a positive force that fosters a sense of equality and community,
while others may view it as restrictive or stifling individual ambition."
You know the real problem with the Nazis? Their insane and
evil use of eugenics made it impossible to inquire how group behaviours are
related to genetics. Among ethnic Norwegians the affect of Janteloven is
universal perhaps particularly among those Norwegians who hate it the most
since they cannot escape its cloying demands at maintaining cultural consensus
and homogeneity. A sad but unrelenting fact of life in Scandinavia or even
among expat communities of ethnic Scandinavians who now live abroad.
Since Critical Theory is the dialectical philosophy behind
the prevailing WOKE ideological movement, I asked ChatGPT the following:
"How long has critical theory been influencing K-12 in
Ontario, Canada?"
ChatGPT replied:
"Critical theory has been influencing K-12 education
in Ontario, Canada, for several decades. It became more prominent in the late
20th century and has continued to evolve since then. The extent of its
influence may vary over time and across different schools and educational
institutions, but its impact on curriculum, pedagogy, and discussions about
social justice and equity has been significant in the province's educational
landscape. It's important to note that the specific ways in which critical
theory is incorporated into education can change over time and may be subject
to policy shifts and educational trends!"
This makes decades of provincial governments and the schoolteachers
the government employs complicit in indoctrinating our children with Cultural
Marxist lies. But to what end. How does the dialectical arguments employed by
Critical Theorists work? The dialectical argument borrowed from Hegel requires
combining two elements which are mutually exclusive and contradictory. “Hegel’s
dialectics” is the dialectical method of argument employed by the 19th Century
German philosopher, G.W.F. Hegel which, like other “dialectical” methods,
relies on a contradictory process between opposing sides. Hegel's dialectical
method is a method of argument that involves contradictory process between
opposing sides. Hegel uses it to develop his philosophy of logic, epistemology,
and ethics. Hegel's dialectics is based on the concept of aufheben, which means
to cancel and preserve at the same time. Hegel criticizes Plato's dialectics
for being unable to get beyond skepticism and nothingness. Hegel combines two
mutually exclusive elements to create a synthesis between them. Or as Hegel put
it, “the result of the dialectical process is a new concept but one higher and
richer than the preceding—richer because it negates or opposes the preceding
and therefore contains it, and it contains even more than that, for it is the
unity of itself and its opposite.” Marx and Engels used Hegel’s Dialectic to
form the basis of the argument for communism which is known as Dialectical Materialism.
When the social scientists from the Frankfurt School realized that Marx and
Engels had got it wrong, they didn’t discard the use of Hegel’s dialectical
argument rather they transformed it into Critical Theory. Here in the very simplest
terms is how it works:
Agenda (Rid society of the socially constructed differences
between the sexes to create equity)
Man (Thesis)
Woman (Antithesis)
Men and women are identical (Synthesis)
But the fact remains, despite all the radical attempts to create
false equity using logical fallacies the obvious differences remain. Men
receive a Y chromosome from their father who in turn received his from his
father. These chromosomes genetically determine outcomes that are not merely
socially constructed. The concept of humans being born as a "tabula
rasa," or blank slate, has been debated in philosophy for centuries. While
the WOKE argue that individuals are born with a clean slate and are largely shaped
by their experiences and environment, the science contends that genetic factors
and innate characteristics play a significant role in shaping a person's
identity and abilities. It's a complex and ongoing philosophical and scientific
discussion yet arguments against the concept of humans being born as a tabula
rasa include:
1. Genetic Predisposition: Critics argue that individuals
may have genetic predispositions or innate traits that influence their behavior
and characteristics from birth, such as intelligence, temperament, and
personality.
2. Evolutionary Psychology: Some contend that certain
behaviors and cognitive abilities have evolved over time to address survival
and reproductive needs. These traits may not be entirely learned and could be
partially hardwired.
3. Empirical Evidence: Research in fields like psychology
and neuroscience has shown that early childhood experiences can interact with
genetic predispositions, suggesting that both nature and nurture play important
roles in development.
4. Language Acquisition: The ability to learn language at a
young age, known as the "critical period," suggests that there might
be innate cognitive structures that facilitate language acquisition.
5. Cross-Cultural Variations: Observations of
cross-cultural differences in behavior and cognition suggest that there may be
innate variations that influence how individuals from different cultures
perceive and interact with the world.
These arguments challenge the idea that humans are entirely
blank slates at birth and emphasize the role of biology and genetics in shaping
human development. Where socially constructed behavioural changes have come
into play have originated in our school system where Critical Theory has been
taught to students for decades. There is a clear line of causality to the present
outcome of a WOKE generation of students who are the products of a school
system which has been captured by Cultural Marxists. They have created a generation
not merely intolerant of different opinions but solidly committed to embracing
the contradictions inherent in the dialectical reasoning they have been ordered
to embrace by their Cultural Marxist tutors. Yes, I think I still understand
the differences between boys and girls without the assistance of the high
priests of identity politics to inform me. Our schools have been the Petri Dish
in which a cultural consensus has been induced into our kids which is not
unlike Janteloven. It is a demand for total social conformity or else under the
banner of who are you to counter our argument with reason? Which is why the
Jantelovenists in charge of the College of Psychologists of Ontario believe
they have the moral prerogative and intellectual wherewithal to re-educate
their most illustrious and renown and successful member while they remain
anonymous foolish tools of Neo-Marxist ideological possession.
Socialists attacks the core idea of parliamentary
sovereignty because they are fundamentally distrustful of the political process
and therefore seek to limit it in every possible manner! They are attempting to
replace Parliamentary oversight with the abstract doctrines of so-called
progressive experts who invariably get everything wrong! It’s time to reject
Hegels dialectical nonsense to restore reasoned discourse, ethics, epistemology
and ontology to our school system. Neo-Marxists who employ a reworked version
of Marx and Engles Dialectical Materialism do not belong in our classrooms.
They ought never to have been given our trust or to be allowed to instruct our
children in their silly dialectical contradictions. Our governments ought to
have known better than to have permitted our tax dollars to be spent on WOKE
ideologues whose very stated goal is to undermine our culture and replace it
with Neo-Marxist revolution.
