Editor’s note: This is a copy of a Facebook post by Daniel Jupp (aka: Bartholomew Chiaroscuro) that I felt deserved to be recorded here on my Substack page. If you enjoy this tiny sample of Daniel’s thoughtful, witty, and provocative writing, please consider subscribing to his Substack newsletter here, Jupplandia. He’s also written a couple of books that can be found on Amazon. One you won’t want to miss is “Gates of Hell”, where Daniel digs deep, exhibiting extraordinary skill at dissecting the narrative with exceptional proficiency. Illustrating, to me at least, how we all should be viewing the world’s providers of information… With lots of skepticism. See the video review at bottom of page.
Here’s Daniel’s Facebook post:
"It is my personal estimate that for any woke or globalist position the number of people who actively believe it, want it and press for it is only about 5-10% of the populace.
This is true for:
1. LGBTQ+ propaganda and the trans agenda
2. Support for Ukraine and moving towards a war with Russia
3. Critical Race Theory and the demonisation of white people
4. Net Zero and the whole climate change Apocalypse Cult
5. All migrants are wonderful and we don’t need borders anymore
6. Decisions should be made by transnational bodies or unelected experts
It was even true of Covidian fanaticism. The people who wanted to name, shame and punish the unvaccinated were really a small minority. Even with that, most just went along with the media and the government and the crowd, but would never have decided that way for themselves without huge social pressure from above.
And this is despite massive propaganda and psy-ops. Without constant reinforcement from the powerful,all of these things would disappear. And this is also despite distorted polling results. Because part of the psy-op is to completely lie about and disguise what the thing is.
Ask someone ‘do you think we should try to preserve the planet and its unique habitats and wildlife’ almost everyone will say yes. Ask ‘do you think pollution is a bad thing and governments need to address it’ and everyone will say yes. This will be taken for agreement that ‘the planet is dying and you have to eat grubs to save it’, which is a very different thing.
Ask someone ‘should we give everyone an opportunity in life’ or ‘should we be nice to people who are different to us’ or ‘should we value ethnic minority citizens’ and nearly everyone will say yes. But again, this will actually be about ‘we are going to demonise and hate white people, do you agree?’. The person who supports the innocent statement will be taken to support the malign statement and the evil actions that are done in its name.
This is constantly enacted through lying about what the policy is to pretend it is decent and good and by distorting language to support that lie. Like calling attacking white people or straight people or Christians or men ‘social justice’.
The problem is therefore not just this lying but that support for all of this insanity is concentrated amongst the most powerful people, who can move society where they want it to go, whilst opposition to it is concentrated amongst the least powerful people, who don’t have that influence.
There’s not a single British MP who has seriously opposed wokeness or globalism. Not one. Bridgen did on covid, but only on Covid. So called traditional Tories haven’t opposed any of it except with words. They have had 13 years in power to oppose it, and haven’t. But millions of us want them to. Millions of us would vote for them if they did.
And only a tiny percentage really do want what they are giving us.
The Labour Party Shadow Education Secretary wants Critical Race Theory in our schools. The Conservative Party has been in power while Critical Race Theory has been mandatory for civil servants and public money has been wasted on those courses.
Where is the democratic choice for the vast majority of people who don’t want Critical Race Theory?
A Conservative government with an 80 seat majority could have updated race relations law to include prejudice, discrimination and mistreatment of white people through things like quotas and CRT and made them illegal. It could have banned schools, universities and companies from teaching this poisonous hypocritical racism. It didn’t do a thing.
Labour are going to be swept into power riding a wave of contempt for the Conservatives. But the majority of the people voting for them won’t actually want most of the things Labour wants, any more than people voting Conservative wanted Net Zero.
Not many people want the genital mutilation of their kids or their grooming by race fanatics or their thoughts and feelings policed at all times by the State. Not many people want to risk nuclear war. Not many people want black kids being taught they are victims who can never succeed, and white kids being taught they are born evil and can never be good. Not many people want open borders, even if 100% of people in a BBC studio do.
But the elite class and their selected special interest groups (even the Muslim block vote is still a small minority in the country as a whole) get what they want.
While 95% of us are either completely non political and therefore indifferent, or if awake strongly object and have no representation at all."
