The WRU Unplugger of the Year need not be a monarchist, nor regret the fall of the Old European Order. The WRU Unplugger of the Year is simply the one who is considered to have done most in bringing about the unplugging of the Wilson Revolution.
This year's awardee has done a most outstanding job at exposing the privacy invading activities of the behemoth that is at the center of the Wilsonian world order.
The 2013 WRU Unplugger of the Year is:
Writes “Strategos” over at his weblog Liberty and Justice:
They have no honor, no sense of duty, no appreciation of western civilization, they are just nihilistic partisan hacks obsessed with their own power. The Conservative intelligentsia is much better and the majority of their work is spot on, the problem is they are bound by the Cathedral as the Neo-Reactionaries call it as well, they remain committed to liberal democracy and the social revolutions of the post-victorian period, they will never support monarchism, a smaller electorate or really any structural reforms that will fundamentally alter society towards our end and believe we will win through economic reforms like a Flat Tax.previous
Over at The Independent, Mr. Guy Keleny says real liberals should support the monarchy, concluding:
Well, I submit that for true liberals, who care most of all for the liberty of the individual citizen, the “will of the people” is a will o’ the wisp, frequently invoked by crooks and tyrants. We do not like triumphs of the will, even that of the people. The chief value of democracy is not in “getting things done” – that is the socialist way – but in preventing the abuse of power by those in charge. And the chief value of monarchs is that they are there not by their own will or anybody else’s but by pure chance. The important thing is not to confuse the person and the office; the Queen is not a god, nor does she “deserve” the privileges of her office. But that office is ancient, colourful and modestly useful, and we’d be crazy to get rid of it.Psyposts reports on research for implementing tyranny of the majority.
Most troubling for me about 2013 was the further deterioration of tradition and traditional values. Royal children born out of wedlock, “inter-faith” coronations and so on. Belgium and Luxembourg both have openly homosexual prime ministers and in little Luxembourg bigger changes are planned with the current government such as legalizing gay marriage, gay adoption, removing religious classes from the public schools and doing away with Catholic services as part of National Day celebrations. The King of The Netherlands says he doesn’t want to be called “Your Majesty”, the Prince of Wales wants an “inter-faith” coronation and the Pope is talking about income inequality and driving a Ford. In all the good and bad we have seen in 2013, it is safe to say that those supporting tradition and monarchy, in Europe in particular, need to step their game up in a big way.In another post, the same blogger says:
However, over time, minor incidents were so exaggerated that the British public, it seems, came to view the monarch as being the adviser to the Parliament rather than the reverse and invested so much power in politicians for fear of being tyrannized by a monarch that today the monarch has no power to restrain the politicians from tyrannizing the people.A few other posts by the same blogger:
Three years short of a century ago today, the latest Hungarian coronation took place.
Over at Enter Stage Right, Bruce Walker takes on the American central bank.
Also, the testimony of Thomas E. Woods, jr. on the Federal Reserve:
Two dozen years short of two centuries ago today, Elisabeth of Bavaria was born.
A century ago today, the Persona Non Grata of this weblog signed the Federal Reserve Act into law.
Dr. Ron Paul gives his take:
A dozen score years ago today, rebels dumped tea into the sea in Boston Harbor.
The Mad Monarchist presents U.S. views on monarchy:
Previously: Kenyan Independence
A century and half a dozen years ago today, Oscar II, King of Sweden and formerly King of Norway, passed on – in his 79th year.
96 years ago today, the Persona Non Grata and bête noire of this weblog signed the declaration of war against Austria-Hungary, after having spoken three days earlier. The motion to declare war passed unopposed in the United States Senate. It was opposed by one honorable United States Representative. This war had become for the Allied Powers almost exclusively – if not entirely – a war to make the world safe for unfettered mass democracy, although the British Empire had to wait a while to have that unleashed upon it.
165 years ago today, the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria commenced.
Geeky monarchists have been noticed over at CrunchBase.
Royal World has some post, some of which are:
Why are we going around choosing kings? Maria Vladimirovna is the Empress. End of story. Crown her.
Constitutions are designs and operating instructions for mechanisms. They don't rule any more than rocket blueprints blast into orbit.The same also says:
Unlike democracy, the Easter Bunny looks good in principle.James Woods quotes a Pruzansky:
The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living[.]Bryce Laliberte writes:
Democracy is not politically neutral. It favors certain kinds of social reform over others, which becomes a feedback loop into singularity.Mr. Laliberte also writes:
Democracy is war. You win by the willingness to cause destruction.Further:
I don't want democracy because nearly everyone is stupid and I don't trust them.Also from Mr. Laliberte:
Opposition to democracy should be the conservative's foundation. Without this, he has already lost.Finally a supposed quote from Queen Victoria:
Feminists ought to get a good whipping.
