+ | < | ||
+ | <p>1. Every republic passes through several stages. The | ||
+ | first of these is comprised in the early days of mad raging by | ||
+ | the blind mob, tossed hither and thither, right and left: the | ||
+ | second is demagogy from which is born anarchy, and that leads | ||
+ | inevitably to despotism - not any longer legal and overt, and | ||
+ | therefore responsible despotism, but to unseen and secretly | ||
+ | hidden, yet nevertheless sensibly felt despotism in the hands of | ||
+ | some secret organization or other, whose acts are the more | ||
+ | unscrupulous inasmuch as it works behind a screen, behind the | ||
+ | backs of all sorts of agents, the changing of whom not only does | ||
+ | not injuriously affect but actually aids the secret force by | ||
+ | saving it, thanks to continual changes, from the necessity of | ||
+ | expanding its resources on the rewarding of long services. </p> | ||
+ | <p>2. Who and what is in a position to overthrow an invisible force? | ||
+ | And this is precisely what our force is. GENTILE masonry blindly | ||
+ | serves as a screen for us and our objects, but the plan of action | ||
+ | of our force, even its very abiding-place, | ||
+ | people an unknown mystery. </p> | ||
+ | <h3 align=" | ||
+ | <p>3. But even freedom might be harmless and have its place | ||
+ | in the State economy without injury to the well-being of the peoples | ||
+ | if it rested upon the foundation of faith in God, upon the | ||
+ | brotherhood of humanity, unconnected with the conception of equality, | ||
+ | which is negatived by the very laws of creation, for they have | ||
+ | established subordination. With such a faith as this a people might | ||
+ | be governed by a wardship of parishes, and would walk contentedly | ||
+ | and humbly under the guiding hand of its spiritual pastor submitting | ||
+ | to the dispositions of God upon earth. This is the reason why IT IS | ||
+ | INDISPENSABLE FOR US TO UNDERMINE ALL FAITH, TO TEAR OUT OF THE MIND | ||
+ | OF THE < | ||
+ | THE SPIRIT, AND TO PUT IN ITS PLACE ARITHMETICAL CALCULATIONS AND | ||
+ | MATERIAL NEEDS. </p> | ||
+ | <p>4. In order to give the GOYIM no time to think and take note, | ||
+ | their minds must be diverted towards industry and trade. Thus, all | ||
+ | the nations will be swallowed up in the pursuit of gain and in the | ||
+ | race for it will not take note of their common foe. But again, in | ||
+ | order that freedom may once for all disintegrate and ruin the | ||
+ | communities of the GOYIM, we must put industry on a speculative | ||
+ | basis: the result of this will be that what is withdrawn from the | ||
+ | land by industry will slip through the hands and pass into | ||
+ | speculation, | ||
+ | <p>5. The intensified struggle for superiority and shocks delivered | ||
+ | to economic life will create, nay, have already created, | ||
+ | disenchanted, | ||
+ | foster a strong aversion towards the higher political and towards | ||
+ | religion. Their only guide is gain, that is Gold, which they will | ||
+ | erect into a veritable cult, for the sake of those material delights | ||
+ | which it can give. Then will the hour strike when, not for the sake | ||
+ | of attaining the good, not even to win wealth, but solely out of | ||
+ | hatred towards the privileged, the lower classes of the GOYIM will | ||
+ | follow our lead against our rivals for power, the intellectuals of | ||
+ | the GOYIM. </p> | ||
