Sid Thomas S*-ing to Power

S*-ing to Power **** S is for Sign, * is for Use. S*, as in S*-ing, is for SLINGING THE SHLONG AGAINST PHILOSOPHICAL AND OTHER ABUSE (Let S* be verse, picture, symbology, rant, whatever talks eternal, American, now) The world is ready and waiting for what we can do here. As John Calvin put it, differently, "It's up to you."

Mass epidemic hysteria - maleness

A quick blast ...
for maximum relevance today:

1. Mass epidemic hysteria -- a social sicknessfairly well-studied. Caspar Schmidt's classic 1984 in J. of Psychohistory linked:

A. Reagan's coming; Carter's burial to

B. 1975 cross-over point from '60's' expansion to beginning shame-guilt "the party's over" crackdown reaction-era, w/ 'right-wing'-ers delegated by The Group (mainly, themselves, but left-wing 'self-hatred' comes in, expecting it) to punish 'left-wing'-ers for their own (r-w's) child sacrifice in Vietnam -- displaced onto the "abortion" issue ("the left" is by definition (token-tautology) -- the corrupt, abusing, baby-killing jew sinners--"Like Nazi gas chambers, those abortion clinics" opined NY's Cardinal John O'connor

C. Gays (and feminazis) get to be odd-man out scapegoats, as jews morph quickly into neocon mode (Elliot Abrams does Military/Church right-wing dirty work in El Salvador; Wm. Casey RC cola time in Nicaragua, Afghanistan, Pakistan; Sharon butchers the Lebonese, JPII politicizes Polish Christianity, heists Walesa's honest union cause and honors Opus Dei's Escriva, Banco Ambrosiano etc.)

D. This social situation 'spiraled in' on male sexuality, as homos were called upon to come out or cop out. This is where affect-Conversion went over into AIDS hysteria, which became a permanent psychotic Signifer of living with a death condition. Schmidt, a South African child psychologist (one of the most brilliant men I'VE ever met, up there with Abbie Hoffman) took the eitiology of hysterical conversion to an unconscious sense of SHAME VS GUILT ! -- pointing out that it is a (what I call) being-indictment, not a willed act-condemnation, which can be recalled and/or externalized. (projected and punished-in-the-other in the latter case).

Shame goes deep. Some can't leave home w/o a gut-smack. Get a bunch of them together ... if you accept Freud's economic model, the libido has to go somewhere, or be re-absorbed as poison (love turned into hate, reprojected as passive aggressive sadism). Freud speaks somewhere of bodily fluids becoming toxic; Gulf War Syndrome included women claiming returning vets semen stung, raised welts on ther skin.

It was maleness, itself (especially on the part of "little dick white boys" as Ed Bradly coaxed that black whore to call the Duke Lacross guys on 60 minutes CBS TV) that became an 'issue', and whoever wasn't already sure and comfortable with their masculinity stood a chance of getting real sickness at the time. What if their 'lifestyle' had, in fact, inflicted earth with a deadly plague? -- retro-virus 'smouldering in darkest Africa' one right-wing Christian science writer had it, waiting to pop out of green monkey dung into the food chain. Something had.

Then we see Rush Limbaugh ... Glen Beck -- Bill Kristol -- Ben Shapiro -- Savage Weiner --Fox news and the Guckert/Mehlman gaynxiety prodders f'r jeezus (holy seculards) -- for the truly pussified boobus Americanus. All ya gotta do is talk tough and put up a front against A-rabs, you'll be OK. These guys feel shame? Do vacuums exist? (Pouring from the empty into the void.)

The AIDS Cult offers essays that examine the psycho-social origins of the ‘HIV/AIDS’ belief system. The opening essay, ‘The fantasy group origins of AIDS’ by the late Caspar Schmidt, a psychoanalyst with a practice in New York, written in 1984, was astonishingly prophetic of our current rethinking of the ‘AIDS’ construct.....Ian Young, in the preface, states that ‘HIV believers’ and ‘AIDS critics’ have ignored the psycho-social factors that have arguably contributed to the unnecessary deaths of thousands. Schmidt nominates ‘AIDS’ as a "bio-psycho-social disorder" and contends that ‘AIDS’ is psychologically contagious, being ‘spread’ through mass-hypnosis rather than microbes. He proposes that chronic and inescapable fear can elicit a biochemical reaction in the body, which in time causes "psychogenically-reduced cell-mediated immunity."
