Republican Philosophy: Self Selection for Removal from the Planet
by John Lawrence, February 26, 2018
While Hitler earmarked a particular ethnic group as well as the mentally defective for removal from the planet, the Republican or conservative philosophy lets people self select for removal. That's what the opioid crisis is all about. Republicans are followers of Ayn Rand and Herman Spencer. It's 'survival of the fittest' and devil take the hindermost. As Nixon stated, people should be treated with 'benign neglect.' Hitler treated then with 'malign neglect.' Republicans are equal opportunity employers. They go along with self selected removal from the planet without regard to religion, race, ethnic group or national origin.
As Neitsche and Ayn Rand believed, there would be the 'emergence of the superman.' That was what society should be all about according to them. We have seen the emergence of a superman class lately: billionaires. The economic divide grows greater on a daily basis. The homeless are treated with benign neglect until public health issues force society to do something because unsanitary conditions are impacting the rest of us.
The philosophy of a 'preferential option for the poor' has totally gone by the way side as a 'survival of the fittest' philosophy has become mainstream. Christ's teaching of 'blessed are the meek' has been replaced with 'blessed are the powerful and successful.' Christianity has morphed so that having wealth is an indication of God's favor. Being poor is an indication of lack of moral fiber. The rich, the smart, the beautiful, the ambitious are to be encouraged. Those having merit are to be encouraged. Those lacking merit - the low IQ, the ugly, the weak - are encouraged to self select to leave the planet. Republicans will help them along by encouraging corporations to manufacture the means for their own self removal.
In Germany corporations manufactured the gas that killed people in gas chambers. Here corporations manufacture opioids that are freely available for those who want to remove themselves from the planet. There is only limited space on the planet so the human race will only improve itself if the meritorious survive while those lacking merit self select for removal. Again self selection for removal is open to all on an equal basis without regard to race, religion, ethinic group or national origin.
