Culture is a subject not very often brought up in SIEGE because, in a revolutionary context, it tends to give the ring of something irrelevant, and, in this jungle-ized milieu where some of our own best fighters enjoy nothing better than "rock" music, it might even appear as a fiat-out waste of time. But it is important to know and understand what culture really is and, in so doing, come to understand better about human behavior and the effects of the stimuli around us on it.
First, true culture comes from blood. Here today we have a bastardized culture just the same as the make-up of the American people grows increasingly bastardized. Then, as the old-timers will readily attest, there is the role of the Jew in what has been called "culture distortion" for his own peculiar purposes and toward his own particular ends. In truth, the West today has no culture. These consumers hang onto the language and customs of a bygone age because they can't come up with anything so organized and intricate on their own. Some of the music aficionados will travel and sit for hours and pay huge sums of money to hear music played of a hundred or two hundred years ago. (Music isn't being written anymore and the language is degenerating into a mass of "ya know's", "f'real's" and "muthafucker's", etc.)
Civilization... It's a White thing.
They might tell you that, in a democratic society, it's a matter of free choice or of personal taste. Our side will affirm there is such as the "mass taste" which will always tend toward mediocrity. But the trick, as always, about any so-called democracy is that it is one big loop hole, gaping wide like an open invitation to all the sharpies and hucksters to move in and take over. That is what already took place here generations ago. And then the question of "free choice" becomes a moot one as it is all relegated to only those "choices" the taste-makers see fit to place before you. (Control of mass taste and opinion is absolutely no different than control of so-called "democratic" elections: the manipulators present two of their favorite dummies for you to pick from. Either way, you lose.)
I'll use myself this time as a case in point. My meeting with my own culture was by complete accident. I could have been no more than ten years of age when, over the FM radio of my father's car, I caught the sounds of music such as I had never heard before. I didn't know what it was or who wrote it but I knew it was reaching out to me. And I must emphasize that it reached out not as anything prescribed socially but instead like a call of the wild. Here was culture and, as a product of blood, something in my blood was responding. After I had managed to get together a basic selection of classical and romantic music, I found out it has been one of Brahms' Hungarian Dances. Blood to blood. The feeling was identical to learning the name of a beautiful girl one has seen on the street and fallen instantly in love with.
Then there is conditioning. I had experienced the syndrome long before Commander Rockwell explained it in his ROCKWELL REPORT. I can still go to my LP records and put on the turntable a piece of musical trash... BUT I will instantly be transported to a happy time and place and the overall effect will be a pleasant one. The Commander called it Pavlovian in principle and he was quite right. Pavlov was the Russian scientist who experimented in conditioning dogs through the use of flashing lights, ringing bells and even electrical impulses at their feeding time. Once the dogs had become accustomed to all the artificial and extraneous conditions and had come to associate them with the most pleasurable and essential matter of eating, the experiment was proven. Place the food before the dogs without the lights and bells and the dogs wouldn't go near it. Flash the lights and ring the bells and the dogs would slaver at the mouth even in the presence of no food. Humans don't like to think that they are no different in their instincts and reflexes.
How perfect is the System's brainwash and conditioning apparatus! It is total and complete! No matter who you are, where you are or what you are doing, if you have on a radio, record player or television, the System is there and you are being conditioned. The logical result has been that all this noise and claptrap has become social ritual. Without it, forget it. You're not a part. The occurrence I experienced of the Black who happened upon the playing of a symphony on a portable FM radio and inquired, "Wus dat?" is indicative but not as troubling as the young White girl who couldn't bear to be alone in the bath without loud noise blaring over her radio.
I've chosen music as my example in this as it is an art form that cannot be idly or coldly stared at in a museum or gallery, it requires participation in the same manner as a stage play, etc. Music is emotional. And we've got a country full of badly emotionally disturbed people.
Conditioning is everywhere but it is not everything. There are those few who hear and respond to that call of the wild I spoke of. For someone who can't dance or play a musical instrument, I still believe I'm one who appreciates and loves best the music of our blood. I think of the masters who wrote it– Wagner and Liszt, etc.– and I know they weren't writing for the hell of it. Without words, the music is saying something. It is blood speaking to blood. How few can hear it and how fewer still can understand it? (How few even suspect or care?) That is culture and that is what is nearly completely lost.
