Mandatory is the New Word of Compliance

‘Mandatory’ is an interesting word which has evolved from its intended use of “required by law or rules, compulsory.” It is misused and abused today to force people into compliance.

Under communist rule compliance was ‘mandatory.’  Most things in our lives were mandatory whether inscribed in law, mentioned as unwritten rules, and rules made up on the fly. Regardless of where the word ‘mandatory’ came from, you had to obey and follow the orders or else.

‘Mandatory’ was so abused and draconian that, just on the sight of an authority figure, teacher, administrator, boss, policeman, security police, military police, economic police, and border guards, people froze in their tracks and wondered what would happen to them if those people decided to address them or check their I.D.s.

You searched quickly in your mind for reasons that you may have violated the ‘mandatory’ whatever and where you will end up if they decided to arrest you. You did not have to commit a crime, they made one up. Mental prayers did not help because everybody cooperated with the police state for extra food and money, including most priests.

People were guilty until proven innocent in a communist court of law. It was ‘mandatory’ that the accused provided proof of innocence.

It was ‘mandatory’ to attend all communist rallies and marches. It was ‘mandatory’ to show up at the precinct and to vote for the one-party candidate.

After I fled to the U.S., the word ‘mandatory’ started to creep into our daily school environment. ‘Mandatory’ seemed innocuous at first, just another word, until I asked too many questions.

Then I learned that everything ‘mandatory’ was not remunerated. It magically became part of the job if I wanted to keep it.  

It was ‘mandatory’ to tutor students every week after school for no extra pay. It was ‘mandatory’ to work weekends for several hours to meet and greet parents, no extra pay.

It was ‘mandatory’ to ignore our own families on weekends and one week at night for two hours to tutor students who did not pay attention in class or who were too lazy to come during daily office hours. It was all ‘mandatory’ if you wanted to keep your job.

It was ‘mandatory’ to attend assemblies and speeches that violated our religious rights and the rights of the students. It was ‘mandatory’ not to wear crosses because it offended the Muslims. It was ‘mandatory’ not to display a small American flag on one’s desk because it offended others who were not Americans.

It was ‘mandatory’ not long ago to wear masks everywhere, even outdoors to protect the health of others around you, never mind that your health was not really protected.

It was ‘mandatory’ to get a dangerous vaccine if you wanted to keep your job, go to school, travel, have a medical procedure in a hospital, attend church, shop for food, fly, and go on vacation.

It is ‘mandatory’ not to criticize those in power while perusing social platforms and the Internet. There are many consequences if these ‘mandatory’ unwritten and arbitrary rules and “community standards” are violated.

Someone sitting in a basement making $16 an hour deems your actions, thoughts, opinions, and words hateful and offensive to the community’s health, a community suffering of many mental issues, drug use, immorality, and perversions. But you are the threat because you violated the nebulous ‘mandatory’ rules of community behavior.

It was ‘mandatory’ under communism to wear uniforms with numbers sewn onto the lapel in case you broke some ‘mandatory’ behavioral rules that the police state informers felt were violated.

Pretty much everything we do in a modern society has become ‘mandatory.’ You cannot attend college if you are not vaccinated – it is ‘mandatory.’ If you don’t comply, your life will never be the same, you become an outcast of society. The Democrat police state, their lapdog media, and on-line fact checkers control your every action, word, and thought.

The Democrat Party used to follow democratic principles, but it is now a communist police state obsessed with daily mandates, ‘mandatory’ this, ‘mandatory’ that.

The media is their platform of mandating. Fact checkers did not exist until the ruling Democrat police state started distorting and manufacturing the truth and pushing the one world government Marxist agenda.

Fact checkers are employed by the globalists who are running our world today. They are not elected to office but don’t need to be, politicians do their bidding because billionaires have a lot of money and influence. Drunk on narcissism because they have so much money and wealth, they truly believe that they know what is best for the rest of the world in every aspect of our lives. Everything they social engineer with their NGOs becomes ‘mandatory’ with help from beholden politicians.

 

 

Defectors from Globalism, Where Would You Go?

The true Iron Curtain which ran for hundreds of miles between

During the Soviet and Eastern Bloc decades of communism, which dominated almost the entire 20^th century, fundamental dissenters to the communist ideology who were locked up between the borders of a tyrannical system rarely matched by history were considered dissidents. They were forced to live a life of harassment and poverty below the average proletariat’s impoverished lifestyle, being denied basic human rights.

But some citizens chose to escape their physical and mental communist prison at any cost to them or their families and became defectors. Politically, the definition of a defector sounds ordinary, “a person who gives up allegiance to one state in exchange for allegiance to another, in a way which is considered illegitimate by the first state. More broadly, it involves abandoning a person, cause, or doctrine to which one is bound by some tie, as of allegiance or duty.”

But a defector, whether it was a famous, infamous, or ordinary person, absconded in order to find freedom of mind, body, and spirit. More broadly, they wanted to find freedom which they were denied – religious, educationally, economically, physically, politically, etc.

In a pejorative sense, in the free world, a defector was anyone who switched loyalty to another religion, sports team, political party, a rival faction, a “traitor” to the original side. I do not know how they can be traitors to a cause or ideology they’ve never embraced in the first place, it was forced upon them by heavily armed men on a tyrannical quest.

There is a long list of defectors from the former Soviet bloc countries. The most famous is the two-star Romanian Securitate general and personal advisor to Nicolae Ceausescu, the brutal dictator of the Socialist Republic of Romania. Gen. Pacepa defected to the free West in 1978 in the American Embassy in Bonn, West Germany; he was sentenced to death twice in absentia with a $2 million bounty on his head. The dear leader even sent Carlos the Jackal to assassinate him unsuccessfully.

There was Nadia Comanici, the famous Olympic gymnast, who defected weeks before the Romanian revolution in December 1989.

An air force cadet, Mihai Smighelschi, flew in 1987 his Aero L-39ZA Albatross jet trainer aircraft from Buzau, Romania to Kirklareli, Turkey, where he landed on a dirt road. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Soviet_and_Eastern_Bloc_defectors

There are thousands of untold stories of defectors who walked away from conferences, chess tournaments, gymnastics competitions, classical concerts and ballet performances, swam across the Danube River while being shot at by border guards, hiding inside car seats or engine compartments, crawling under barbed wire, jumping from trains into large rivers and lakes and swimming to freedom, flying light aircraft low in order to avoid detection, and many who escaped by visiting friends and family, overstaying their three-month visas, and never returning to the communist hell they’ve escaped.

In each case, the defectors were stripped of their citizenship from their home countries, of their life possessions, savings, and private property if they had any, and their families left behind were tortured, mistreated, beaten, and stripped of their private property which did not even belong to the defector. Such was the totalitarian socialist life dictated by the Communist Party. Under their control, you had no freedoms and certainly you had no way to redress any wrong.

You were told what to do, where to live, how to live, where to go to school, where to work, where to travel, what to eat, how much to eat, how to behave, how to exercise, locked down in your own little world dictated by all mighty communists and their informants, enforcers, the police, the security police, the economic police, the border police, and the army.

People were prisoners in their own countries, their homes, and minds. Doctors were even sent to homes to check on the medical and physical welfare of children to make sure that they were raised in the right socialist environment in order to become good and compliant socialists.

Having felt on my own skin the socialist oppression under the boot of the Communist Party, I watched in dismay as one virus, which killed less people than the seasonal flu, become an instrument of oppression and an excuse to install a political global control which someone had termed “corona communism.”

Never have I seen Americans, so fond of their freedoms spelled out so clearly in their founding documents, compliantly and peacefully watch them disappear virtually overnight under the guise of “protection” from a virus.

Millions of healthy people around the globe were quarantined in their own homes by draconian state and local governments who used the police and the military to enforce compliance – healthy people forbidden from walking and sitting in the woods, parks, beaches, and other recreational venues. Everything was shut down except “essential businesses” which were randomly chosen based on their crony capitalist size.

Avicenna, who came up with the idea of quarantine for SICK people, would have laughed today to see healthy people being quarantined for more than 40 days, affecting their natural immunity in doing so.

During the 14^th century, in order to protect coastal cities from infection by plague epidemics brought in by ships, vessels arriving in Venice from infected ports were required to sit at anchor for 40 days before landing.

But the current lockdown (quarantine) of healthy people all over the world, not just in the U.S., is something that we have never experienced before to this extent.

Why did Americans fold so quickly to the irrational power and control of two CDC doctors, the World Health Organization’s (WHO) chief whose faulty computer modeling predicted millions of casualties in our country alone, and globalist political hacks at all levels of government? Certainly, the globalist media fanned the flames of fear and irrational panic of instant death and destruction.

It is a good question to ponder as we struggle to restart the comatose economy at -4.80% GDP in the first quarter. As more and more small businesses are going belly up due to forced closures, and even large retailers are filing for bankruptcy, are we just sinking into an even more serious recession in Q2 or is there something more nefarious at play?

I hope that some Americans will not be forcefully vaccinated with the rushed corona vaccine nor microchipped to prove their compliance. They will become defectors in their own countries because there is certainly no where else to defect to on the planet that offers the freedoms they have been enjoying and taking for granted for such a long time. But the skies are getting darker and more ominous with each day of forced lockdowns and closures of “non-essential” businesses. Defectors from encroaching globalism, where will you go? The “no borders” are being squeezed tighter.
