The current push to
impose mandatory Face Diapering will likely decide the future of this country.
Of the freedom to dissent in this country.
That may sound a bit
much, but consider. If they can impose Universal Face Diapering, they will have
succeeded in destroying the possibility of dissent – other than in
your head, exactly like the people in Orwell’s 1984.
Everyone wore the same Party overalls; everyone mouthed the same
slogans.
Everyone looked the same, creating a
soul-crushing appearance of universal conformity with the
orthodoxies of the Party.
Dissent – outside of your own
head – was unthinkable. Or rather, inexpressible. This made it seem that
no one else dissented. Which amounts to making it seem as though everyone agreed.
That everyone else is insane.
This wilts the will. It makes
the individual question his own sanity.
How will our actual world differ from Orwell’s fictitious world
when you aren’t permitted(hideous word; how did America get
to that point?) to go outside without a Face Diaper occluding your
individuality and visually confirming you as a member of the frightened,
obedient herd?
Your face will be indistinguishable from other faces. No one
will know whether you’re smiling or frowning.
Most of all, no one will know you oppose what’s been
imposed, since you’ve been forced to submit to it. Since everyone has
been forced to submit to it.
Universal Diapering will
eliminate any visual evidence of dissent, making dissent itself seem abnormal.
Everywhere you go, the impression of consent, which implies the
legitimacy (the reasonableness) of the thing itself.
That it has been imposed without consent is irrelevant.
You will know that your seemingly isolated dissent has no
meaning – precisely because you aren’t allowed to express it.
Precisely because you don’t see anyone else expressing it.
You will feel alone, outnumbered – because so it appears.
This will demoralize the Diaper Dissenters – those who
disbelieve (just the right word, as the current plague of Sickness
Psychosis is a religious mania not formed on the basis of facts but
rather eschatalogical feelings) in the reasonableness of insisting
everyone look and behave like a suppurating leper .
And this is why universal
pretending – enforced by the state – is so crucially important from the point
of view of those pushing the Diapering, They have already largely succeeded in
demoralizing people for saying anything contrarian, in order
to establish the impression that everyone agrees with the orthodoxies of the
Party.
Every orthodoxy must be publicly confirmed – which is achieved
by not publicly contradicting them.
If you cannot speak your mind – except in hushed whispers to a
few trusted co-conspirators – does it matter what’s on
your mind? Your thoughts are isolated – and so, thereby, are you.
Phase I, if you like.
If you cannot express your opposition to
Sickness Psychosis – or rather, to the psychotics using the fear of sickness to
make themselves masters of us all – by not pretending to be a part of it, your
opposition to it is just as irrelevant.
A “new normal” descends in which everyone seems to agree that
everyone is mortally sick or might be – because everyone you see is Diapered
up. The impression cements that other people are pustulating
lepers – and so are you. It becomes the “new normal” to fear everyone
else – and for everyone to do as they are told.
Phase II.
You can perhaps imagine what Phase III will
entail.
Authoritarian collectivism – whether imposed in the name of the
working classes, the race, saaaaaaaaaaafety or (currently)
health – requires the suppression of the
individual. Of individual ideas and of the individual person.
The Diaper serves the same purpose as a leash.
It conveys the nature of the relationship.
Like the secret heretic Winston Smith in Orwell’s book, the only
safe space is in your own head and that last redoubt must be guarded fiercely
with veils of feigned conformity, even to the extent of what one wears and how
one moves.
But it’s a sad space. A lonely space. A hopeless space.
Orwell anticipated the Sickness Kabuki of our time. In his
imagined dystopia of Oceana, people were forced not only to obey but also
to pretend. To play their part in a sick opera of
collective authoritarianism. The Agents of Goldstein were everywhere, kind of
like a virus.
It was more than just the overalls everyone had to wear.
Everyone also had to wear the same expressions – cruel exultation
during the Two Minutes Hate, a vapid smile of approval whenever Big Brother’s
name was mentioned.
This was their Diaper – and no one dared not
wear one.
The core horror of Orwell’s novel isn’t its portrayal of
physical oppression but rather of the invasion of people’s minds – of the
evisceration of their sanity. It was not enough to obey Big Brother.
It was necessary to love him.
Being forced to wear a Diaper is how we learn to love him, too.
And show that we do.
Forced Diapering is an inflection point. If it becomes the new
normal, dissent becomes a kind of pathetic non sequitur. We will have accepted
that it is reasonable to play-act that everyone is sick or might be, forever.
And submit to anything to prevent it, also forever.
We are all
in this together. Those of us who dissent, at any rate.
This year’s 4th of July
may be the last opportunity to express it. Which is why it so important to do
precisely that by peacefully gathering together without Diapering
up. In groups of voluntarily freely associating people.
Mark that.
Our collective isn’t
authoritarian – unlike theirs. We who dissent are not demanding that those who
believe in Face Diapering haven’t got the right to.
We merely demand they
respect our right not to.
