Here’s a short and very old word: Wasp. Here’s a long and very new word: Neuroparasitology. Despite their differences, the two words go together very well. Neuroparasitology is the study of how parasites manipulate the brains of their hosts. Parasitic wasps are experts at this manipulation. For example, some inject paralysing toxins with their stings and create living larders for their offspring. Mason wasps lay eggs on paralysed caterpillars, then seal them into brood-chambers made of mud. The caterpillars are then eaten alive by the larvae that hatch from the eggs.
Parasitic wasps induce this suicidal passivity with minute injections of neurotoxin, because tiny amounts of chemical can have huge effects on nervous systems. The way a caterpillar submits to being eaten alive is both grotesque and fascinating, but then parasitism is one of the most interesting aspects of biology. Like predators, parasites have spontaneously evolved again and again in the animal kingdom. There are parasitic mammals, birds, fish, insects and more: Think of vampire-bats, cuckoos, lampreys, mosquitoes and so on.
Each species of parasite exploits some particular aspect of its host’s biology. Wasps inject toxins that paralyse nerves; cuckoos lay camouflaged eggs that fool eyes and brains. But this raises a dangerous idea about Homo sapiens. It’s clear from biology that predation and parasitism evolve quickly and easily among animals. All birds have a common ancestor, but some birds, like eagles and shrikes, now prey on their relatives, while others, like cuckoos and skuas, now parasitize their relatives. So why can’t predation and parasitism have evolved among those animals known as human beings? Why can’t there be predatory or parasitic ideologies, professions and even races?
Catch-Twenty-’Koo
One answer might be this: there can’t be because that’s a wicked thing to suggest – it’s bigoted, hateful and racist. But that answer might, in itself, be evidence for the proposition. If parasitism does exist among human beings, it will exploit some particular aspect of our biology. Wasps can easily inject chemicals into the brains of other insects. Human beings can easily inject ideas into the brains of other human beings. They do this using something called language. So words like “hate,” “bigotry,” “racism,” “antisemitism,” “homophobia,” “Islamophobia” and so on may be the verbal equivalents of a wasp’s neurotoxins: cheap and effective ways of inducing paralysis in a nutrient-laden host. In Europe, Canada and Australia, these verbal venoms have legal backing. There are laws against hate-speech and people are imprisoned for expressing opinions. Language and law are aspects of human biology and both are ways of manipulating our behaviour. So both might, I suggest, be exploited by predators or parasites that wanted to feed on a nutrient-laden society.
Indeed, there will be a Catch-Twenty-Cuckoo at work: If a legalistic, language-based form of human parasitism exists in a particular country, it won’t be safe to say so in that country. This hypothesis suggests a new way of understanding the American First Amendment: as anti-parasite code written into the political genome of the United States. Free speech and free enquiry are part of the immune system of a society: ways of identifying and solving problems there. When free speech and free enquiry are punished or banned, the society’s immune system stops working and problems aren’t identified and solved:
Good government and a healthy society require the free exchange of ideas. That is why throttling it is the first priority of bigots and tyrants; their schemes depend on the suppression of truth. The purpose of the First Amendment, therefore, is to ensure that people of all views, no matter how disconcerting, have the right to be heard. It is through argument and explanation — by competing in the marketplace of ideas — that the truth is supposed to prevail. (Jared Taylor, The SPLC Wants To Starve My Family (Among Others), VDare, 17th August, 2011)
The Sharks of Marx
When the truth is suppressed, horrors begin breeding. For example, after the British police were injected with accusations of “institutional racism,” they were paralysed and no longer acted against non-White criminals. So Muslim rape-gangs began operating in British cities and committing horrendous crimes against Whites:
[Mohammed] Karrar was brazen in his exploitation of Girl D and acted in the belief that the authorities would never challenge him – something that for years proved to be true. Isolated, terrified and dependant on the drugs she was being fed, she summoned up the courage to report Karrar to the police twice; once in May 2005 and again in 2007. Nothing happened. Social workers also knew and did not act. One told the court it was the “general consensus” of the staff in her care home that she was being groomed. In 2007, while Girl D was on a trip with a social worker, Karrar and his brother repeatedly called her mobile phone. When her social worker answered one of the calls, Karrar told him: “If you don’t get her I’ll fuck you up, I’ll fuck her up and I’ll fuck her mum up.” (Oxford gang skillfully groomed young victims then sold them for £600 a time, The Guardian, 14th May 2013)
The crimes in Oxford were brazenly obvious, but the “authorities” did nothing as a non-White Muslim raped and tortured White girls for years on end. Why? Because the physically and morally repulsive Mohammed Karrar knew that he could make accusations of “racism” and “Islamophobia” if he was challenged. However, his group didn’t create those verbal venoms: Karrar might be called a secondary parasite, exploiting the paralysis induced by primary parasites known as cultural Marxists. Marxism may be an example of a general biological phenomenon taking a unique form among human beings. Predation and parasitism are general phenomena, but language is unique to Homo sapiens. So predation and parasitism might take linguistic form among human beings. Marxism could be analysed as a linguistic and conceptual assault on society: a way of manipulating behaviour for the benefit of Marxists.
That manipulation created the communist slave-states seen in Eastern Europe and Asia, but Marxists didn’t succeed in overthrowing governments in Western Europe and the United States. Their thirst for power was still there, but it was thwarted. And so Marxism followed another biological precedent: it mutated. In the Soviet Union it was openly predatory; in the modern West, it has become covertly parasitic. It manufactures verbal venoms in order to paralyse Western societies and open them to exploitation. Here, for example, is a White celebrating the ever-growing number of non-Whites in Britain:
Over time, babies matter far more to an economy than even the cleverest of central bankers. The wealth of nations is determined by how many workers they host, and how productive their citizens are. That means that Britain’s extraordinary baby boom – births are at their highest level since 1972 – will end up proving immensely more significant to our long-term prosperity than whatever tweaks to monetary policy [the Bank of England] chooses to introduce. The extent of Britain’s resurgent birth rate is as stunning as it has been overlooked. A remarkable 729,400 babies were born in England and Wales in the year to June 2012, the most for 40 years, according to the Office for National Statistics. Combined with an elderly population that is living longer, the gap between births and deaths is rising, and this, rather than net immigration, is what is driving the majority of the UK’s population increase (though many of the babies born are to migrant parents). (Britain’s baby boom will affect our economy more than anything [the Bank of England does], The Daily Telegraph, 2nd July 2013)
Mockery and Mohammad
Allister Heath, the liberal suicide-cultist who wrote that article, claims that “these data will warm the hearts of those of us who believe every birth to be a miracle that deserves to be celebrated.” Like Britain as a whole, he has been injected with the verbal venom of “Race Does Not Exist.” This venom means that Britain and other Western nations remain suicidally passive as their resources are eaten by outsiders. The fastest-breeding “communities” in the West are not financing their own growth, which takes place at the expense of Whites.
I am resistant to the neurotoxins of Marxism, so I do not celebrate the ever-growing numbers of Pakistanis and Somalis in my country. I do not want Britain to become more like Pakistan and Somalia. Among many other things, immigration by Muslims and Blacks is very bad for free speech:
Muslims protest “age of mockery” as thousands descend on Google HQ
Thousands of Muslims have pledged a series of protests against Google HQ for a “hateful and offensive” anti-Islam video, saying they now live in an “age of mockery”. A protest by 10,000 Muslims outside the offices of Google in London today is just the first in an orchestrated attempt to force the company to remove an anti-Islamic film from website YouTube in Britain.
Thousands had travelled from as far afield as Glasgow to take part in the demonstration … Anger over The Innocence of Muslims, an American-produced film which insults the Prophet Mohammad and demeans Muslims, according to protesters, remains available to watch on the website YouTube, a subsidiary of Google. Organiser Masoud Alam said: “Our next protest will be at the offices of Google and YouTube across the world. We are looking to ban this film. This is not freedom of expression, there is a limit for that. This insult of the Prophet will not be allowed.” …
Speeches by more than a dozen imams in a mixture of Arabic, Urdu, and English urged Muslims to honour the name of the Prophet and not to back down in the face of Google’s continuing reluctance to act, and were met with passionate cries of “God is Great” and “Mohammad is the Prophet of God” in Arabic. … (Muslims Protest “Age of Mockery” as Thousands Descend on Google, The Daily Telegraph, 14th October, 2012)
Thousands rally in UK to demand end to anti-Islam speeches
BIRMINGHAM: Up to 25,000 British Pakistani men, women and children from across the UK gathered in Aston Park here to express their love for [the Prophet] Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to call on the British government to introduce legislation that bars Islamophobes from insulting Islam under the garb of the freedom of speech. The participants, who also travelled from several parts of European cities, were led in a peaceful and colourful mile-long march by Hazrat Peer Alauddin Siddiqui. This is the fourth consecutive gathering for the biggest Melaad-un-Nabi [Birthday of the Prophet] of British Pakistanis in Britain but this year it was dedicated to “protect the honour and legacy of Muhammad (PBUH [Peace Be Upon Him])”. Speakers included interfaith leaders from Christian, Hindu, Sikh, and Jewish religions and parliamentarians from Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrats. …
Speakers said that freedom of speech was a cherished value but abusing Islam is not freedom of speech. They said the best way forward is to engage constructively with Muslims about their religion. They said Muslims were making a great contribution towards everyday life in western countries and it is important that their contribution is recognized. (Thousands rally in UK to demand end to anti-Islam speeches, The News (Pakistan), 23rd April, 2013)
For many advocates of mass immigration, Muslim hostility to free speech is not a bug, but an asset: the traitorous New Labour government adored open borders as much as it loathed free speech. But what about the Christians who support Muslims in their campaign to impose sharia law on Britain? Are they insane or suicidal? Well, are caterpillars insane when they allow themselves to be eaten alive by wasp-larvae? No, the caterpillars have been injected with neurotoxins and can no longer defend themselves. Similarly, Christians and other Whites have been injected with neurotoxic ideologies like anti-racism, egalitarianism and libertarianism. These ideologies distort their perception of reality and stop them seeing the horrendous consequences of mass immigration.
Invaded, Looted and Destroyed
George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949) offers many insights into the psychology of Marxism. In the novel, the Ministry of Truth oversees lies and the Ministry of Love oversees torture. This semantic chutzpah is seen everywhere among Marxists. In the modern West, for example, those who claim to fight hate are actually inspired by it. There are many organizations and ideologies throwing accusations of “hate” in the United States, but at present they can’t initiate prosecutions and get Whites jailed for their opinions. But they definitely want to:
The “Hate Crimes Prevention Bill” will be in the Senate Judiciary Committee this week. It recently passed the House, causing the Anti-Defamation League to rejoice. The ADL called the law “an essential and necessary step forward in the national effort to counter hate crimes” and urged passage by the Senate. It also congratulated itself on taking a leadership role in promoting this legislation for the last 10 years. Other Jewish organizations have also been at the forefront of promoting “hate crime” legislation in the US and throughout the West.
Needless to say, here are very sound reasons to oppose this legislation. “Hate Crime” laws are superfluous, since crimes such as murder or assault are crimes whatever the motivation. Moreover, as Paul Craig Roberts recently pointed out there is a pronounced tendency for American legislation to metastasize into regulations far different and much more sweeping than the enactors envisaged (or admitted). This alone is reason enough to oppose any legislative advance into the areas of motivation or opinion. It is inevitable that “Hate Crimes” will quickly come to include political speech, specifically on immigration. (Kevin MacDonald, The Hate Crimes Prevention Bill: Why Do Jewish Organizations Support It?, VDare, 11th May, 2009)
MacDonald is describing an attempt to create more verbal venom for injection into the brains of American Whites. This venom is paralysing Whites as their society is invaded, looted and destroyed.
My hypothesis, therefore, is that cultural Marxism is a language-based form of parasitism. But how might you go about proving this hypothesis? In the same way as you might prove that an animal has parasites. You don’t have to detect the parasites directly — you can deduce their presence from their effects on an animal’s metabolism:
Simple Math May Solve Longstanding Problem of Parasite Energetics
[I]t may be possible to predict how much energy parasites drain from their hosts, according to Hechinger, simply by modifying equations from the metabolic theory of ecology – a theory that describes the relationships between metabolic rates, body temperatures, and sizes of organisms. … Energy as a currency is important, and, according to Hechinger, a more universal currency to describe parasitism than is the typical use of numbers. Using energy and the new equations might uncover universal rules about the nature of parasitism. “It may help us to not only measure, but also predict the influence of parasites in hosts and even entire ecosystems,” Hechinger said. “This is especially important because ecology is increasingly documenting that parasites are major players in ecosystems – just as important as predators and competitors.” (Simple Math May Solve Longstanding Problem of Parasite Energetics, ScienceDaily, 2nd July, 2013 – see here for full paper)
… “When we get sick – particularly with infectious agents – we often talk about having our ‘energy drained,’ or of ‘having low energy,’” said [Ryan] Hechinger, an associate research biologist at UCSB’s [University of California at Santa Barbara] Marine Science Institute and Department of Ecology, Evolution and Marine Biology. “This common language highlights that energy may provide a useful currency to investigate how infectious agents, or parasites, impact their hosts.”
Note those phrases: “energy as a currency” and “universal rules about the nature of parasitism.” Parasitism certainly exists among animals and plants and can be studied, Hechinger suggests, through its effects on ecosystems. If parasitism exists among human beings, it may affect economies in a similar way. In a human society, money would be an equivalent of energy in an ecosystem. So is the banking crisis an example of parasitism? Are the huge sums of money poured into collapsing American cities like Detroit another example? Do the suicidal immigration policies of White nations result from parasitic manipulation? Are accusations of hate and racism the verbal equivalents of neurotoxins used by parasites?
Those are serious scientific questions. The answers may prove extremely uncomfortable for some. They may also prove vital for the West’s survival.
