Precapitalist conceptions. The Irish businessman

Protestant shopkeepers have been traditionally viewed as a curse on humanity by Northern Catholics because they discriminated in employment against Catholic job applicants. In the view of the common man, while  "polished"  they are interested solely in money.

......

"I'll gather all my friends around me and I won't heed any mention of politics or socialism"

A lot of Catholic shopkeepers of the Provo variety expect to make a quick killing by one means or other. (Some will stoop to any low to get their own back on someone who points out that they are hucksters selling overpriced and out-of-date goods.)

 A Catholic businessman is brought up to carefully husband scarce resources.

A Protestant tradesman and shop assistant discounts his own labour to give his customers a better deal and a better return on money spent in his master's shop. 

.....

As often as not,a Catholic ghetto shopkeeper will deduct the price of a few bottles of beer to have you beaten up by a licensed thug such as Gerry Keenan if he dislikes you. A Protestant hostelry is little different. Since this ministration always comes from the hated proprietor or owner of the establishment,heed the barman's warning when he tells you to drink up and go and be vigilant outside.

Beware of those such as adventurer- businessmen. They are always linked to politicians in the North of Ireland. Those businessmen chart a course into unknown territory for you and family members when you look too closely into their business affairs.

.....

The outwardly naive rural shopholder is anxious to network i.e. to exploit his circle of acquaintances and those of whom he has only a passing knowledge. In this vile manner,he is "like a Scotsman on the make". He is a greedy,errant fool who still flourishes in the North of Ireland because of unschooled people. In the South,a man "on his way up" is ignored and the Germans were the first to see through the cloying familiarity of the small businessman and his desire "to get ahead."

.....

The outcome of the defeat of Nazism was widespread opposition to the small shopkeeper and independent proprietor or tradesman who had dragged Germany into its nightmare and awful cycle of destruction.

This apostate in his Irish guise is someone lost in the Middle Ages.

How to speak to him or to anyone who spouts outdated nonsense and how to speak to his fellow travellers,the people who bang doors outside their neighbours houses?

While 'these things are sent to try us',it is better to just say "Hello!" and leave it at that. Ignore the door-bangers if you can and if their activities do not form a concerted pattern as they did in my case. They will soon die by heart attacks or strokes brought on by biokinetic shock e.g.'Kevin Beattie' ('Wee' Joe Mallon) in my case,Rosemary Deane,Elizabeth Mc Laughlin and Eddie O Connor.

Manners maketh the man!

 What to say when insulted by a cornerboy such as Mickie Mc Goldrick or a 'big man' with ambitions to rise above his station in life such as Sean Lynch?

"The mouth speaks what the heart is full of. Pay me what you owe me because there is a method to the madness. Only a fool laughs at an educated man. We all have to pay our debts."

...and say so too to so-called born-again Christians and sectarian shit-stirrers and Catholic clergymen who have to have their love of hard-cash curbed by invoking the assistance of a good lawyer who deals in facts and figures not a diseased imagination or foibles of the mind.

.....

Let's get the party started,

"Can you not see that it is Sean Lynch who is having you arrested,him and that woman Crudden who has slept with every man in the country. That's who Charlie Mc Clintock answers to,him and the police. Sean Lynch regards you as a madman who wants to start up the Troubles again. Surely to God,you wouldn't even your wit to someone with his I.Q.,you with all your brains and him with out an O Level to his name. He's only a cornerboy,him and people like him. He has been shoved in there by other people who don't want to answer for their actions or come forward and give evidence against the rest of the Provos. You'll rue the day you ever crossed the doorstep of a Sinn Fein office. A little Donagh tinker like him would get you into a knot that ten men wouldn't get you out of. Sean Lynch will have to go back to prison for other crimes and will die in prison. The Provos will die with their tongue hanging out for want of someone to buy them a drink. Avoid them."

.....

OR,per myself,

"I was trying to get through to my mother when I lifted the phone,not you. You're only spreading misinformation and gossip to anyone who talks to you in that put-on voice that sounds a bit like my mother's. Go away and clean out your scullery because I suspect it's filthy, Cathleen. Stop complaining about what the British Army did to your brother and Naan. We all have to pay for what we did years ago long after the event because the police run the North of Ireland and see to it that we get no justice wherever we go or never see the light of day again."

Enemies.....

You'll meet your foes and mortal enemies in any town or city at Easter-there is always  more than one,at least two-when in the  Christian canon Jesus was put to death because police asymmetrical warfare and nationalist counter-surveillance grows up in opposition to the Christian Faith.

In smaller locations where we live cheek by jowl with occupying soldier, policeman and Orangeman and similar wayfaring stranger, you will meet good thief and bad thief at the hill of Golgotha as it were on Good Friday or trying to to run you over on Easter Sunday. Those people be they police or Provo do not believe in the Christian messages of justice and mercy in their respective jurisdictions.

And....

....your friends,both true and false,walk behind you but in our twisted and backwards country it is often impossible to discern true friend from highwayman of the policeman and Sinn Fein type.

An assassin can approach you from in front or behind and is usually in a faster means of conveyance than you.

The pattern of contortions in public places is the general rule. 

In PendlerSport,there are variations such as the contraflow system for 'roadworks' or a lacklustre but genuine friend meeting you head-on on Spy Wednesday. That latter person is in Ireland often the cipher for others who keep their true loyalty to themselves. The practice derives from a coda which ordains that your acquaintance behaves in the French contrarian fashion of argumentation and disputation.

A modern perspective in these days of "false friends" runs,"The key to having friends who can help you is not to encourage beggars or thieves since most of them have adequate resources if they have husbanded their money properly. A thief or beggar who thinks that you're 'good for a few dollars more' will come at you with a gun or a knife sooner or later or send someone to do it for him. Then, the contrarians or republicans as they call themselves and like to be known are difficult people to elicit help from in country areas."

 In ancient times the parts of "false friend" or Judas was taken by the 'worm and foxglove' of doctors,nurses and apothecaries. They are the biggest liars of all and it is foolish to go against their wishes because we all need their services sooner or later.

Variations on a theme

Amongst those other people who everyone needs sooner or later is a policeman or solicitor even if it is only to deal with a persistent nuisance such as an unwanted house caller or Garda salesman of old remaindered books.

....

A biblical coda (similar to that which states that the day of truth is a Sunday) is the claim that on a Good Friday, we meet the dishonest politician such as a Pontius Pilate and a scheming clergyman such as Caiaphas.

....

 Friend or foe. Numerology,the Russian coda

In truth,there is much to be said for the Stations of the Cross as a numerical guide to our foes in the police who are known by their authorised service number. The spies organisations will always be known by number not name,too.

Women are never known by a number. Because they now counsel submission to authority,republicans have little to say for women who were always the objects of their pity but their sole consolation.

On a biblical theme,as regards betrayal and consolation,note also that 'blind guide',the hypocritical Pharisee and misguided fool who helped Jesus to carry his cross. He went on to kill the first Christian martyr, namely Saint Stephen. I am referring to Simon of Cyrene of the Synagogue of Freedmen (Matthew, Acts) whose part is taken in the Tand F Regional Intelligence Centre by his counterpose,Stephen Rafferty. 

In logical terms,it always helps to be aware of contrarian reasoning. That is the (Marxist) philosophy that everything turns into its opposite. That is how you avoid putting your foot in it i.e. walking on rotten floorboards.

.....

The historical and contemporaneous background to the study of elder and judge or magistrate runs thus....

Rome was no different from Nazi Germany in the 1930's or Sicily in the 1860's. Rome and its dependencies was a brutal,barbaric tyranny run by police knout and "informal co-operators" such as an informing clergy,the Pharisees. They it was who denounced one another to the magistrates and the equivalent to the Sanhedrin,mafia gangs of former soldiers and policemen. Read The Glenanne Gang by Anne Cadwallader for guidance on paramilitary gangs set up by imperialists such as the Romans to control foreign countries and other religions.

Simon being a Jewish name,we assume that fleeting and conflicted assistance to "a suffering Jesus" (Fred Baldwin,a Cork Protestant,July 1981 after the Workers Party apostate,John A. Murphy) comes only from the Jews. Similarly in the Roman canon,the hope of a reprieve from a judicial death sentence of a foreign ruler. (From the Jews too,hatred of a foreign ruler in their native country. The Jews were the first nation state in favour of their variant of political nationalism,judicial candour and were against proper law-governed norms or limits on executive powers such as is afforded by a Bill of Rights).

Sic questa,la revancisma degli combattiente irlandese por la aggressione degli droggisti britannici.

Non sequi. Ritornari a la chiesa,signorine e signori.

5.3.2025

Do not be intimidated by nationalist monsters such as the Provos or police hookers and streetwalkers,those of you who like to see legal and social rights enshrined in law.

Getting in touch with the Catholic members of the police force who are not linked to clergymen and the Hairy Marys is always a counsel well advised when nationalists and loyalists-there is no longer any separation- spit on you,'dog' you with insults and threaten you in Northern Ireland.

The Provos and those they model themselves on in the UDR are no more dangerous than at the Easter season when they go on a murder binge. Then too,The Chosen Few vent their spleen on their antagonists in left wing groups.

Get in touch not with the police alone but also with a worldly-wise advocate who knows that what scares a nationalist or loyalist politician and his thuggish followers is a sub poena to give evidence against his fellow conspirators,sundry criminals,other lawbreakers and their retarded and juvenile accomplices.

....

Our times

Junkie and Protestant vs. Lawyer and Loyalist and Policeman

We see J.P. and LLP ever more often,one in private and the other exposed to public view.

This mannafestation to use the French term for a meme dogging you in the street is the outcome of the recent Troubles investigations and press scrutiny of the activities of the Provos and their followers and adherents.

The dissidents are even worse for glaring legal and political inanities. At one moment they are giving information to police and like the socialists at other times,affecting a hostile stance to the police and loyalist and Catholic Establishment. They resent all of those who probe them or endeavour to give them orders to clear off.

Democratic socialists say to all these people and their antagonists,"A curse on both your houses. Those of us left standing after your clowning and stagecraft have no interest in either of you. We only support you out of necessity and want nothing to do with you apart from as concerns 'business' and 'the affairs of the day'."

Basta! 

....

All things being as they are and when all is said and done,Easter is a good time to break longstanding connections and to go to the police or a High Court judge. You can write to the Master of the High Court at any time. The courts are there to protect people from crime and drugs gangs which once again haunt our society. Even worse are those licensed paedophiles,sportsmen and the Orange Order.

TELL the police what you know and have done with sportsmen and armed gangs on the Catholic side and the Orange Order and pushers on the Protestant side of the community.

Caravaggio's The Betrayal

"Never turn your back on a man in a red shirt. That's what that painting is about. Artists are well-known for using cutthroats and criminals in their paintings and they often give a place of honour at a big celebration such as a retirement dinner or funeral meal to a murderer like your brother gave a place of honour to Canon John Mc Elroy. That's what the story in the Bible about knowing your place is about. Italy was created by the Church in the image of ancient Rome and they both worked the same way. The only person who should wear red in Italy and Ireland  is a priest because he is responsible for a lot of deaths to get his hand on the family house and property. Keep your views to yourself and if a priest wants to pass you on a woman he has slept with,ring the police or tell a woman.... she'll put it all around the town and shame him. Let priests marry the women they sleep with and stop trying to convince married women to give them everything they own. Read the Bible, Joseph. Some men are no better but the clergy protect them too like they look after a bad priest. Father Joe Mc Veigh drank your money,him and Sean Lynch,partners in crime".

Irish elections. The moment of truth

 In Northern Ireland your real friends will not be far away at election time. You will see them often at this time of the 'hunting season' but never their principals I.e. those who give them their orders. Their principals are the people who they really worship and adore as a churchgoer worships the risen Christ.

Therein lies the real dilemma of post-conflict Ireland. Nobody in politics has any time for the churches. They blame them collectively for the Troubles. Even Richard Boyd-Barrett could realise that fact of life in the North because he had good contacts amongst the only people who tell the truth in the North, the Presbyterians.

NEVER vote for a candidate who has the potential to do you and your family great harm. Those people spread rumours and rely on gossip for their information. That advice rules out those whose offices are near public houses or gambling establishments.

Never therefore vote for a journalist , former constituency worker or social worker or their family members. They are the people who spread rumours and gossip with the tip of a tumbler or beer glass.

In England,do not vote for hardened military officers who have seen service overseas. They will try to get your family members into trouble with the police and soldiers if you do not pander to their prejudices or if you reject their demands for mutual  support.It follows,do not invite a former soldier or paramilitary into your home. They will spread ruin and chaos and endeavour to get you to act against your best interests. They are well known for sending people off on a wild goose chase because their first instinct is to hurt and kill.

At election time,your true friends keep you to their right. They are neither police agents nor political spies. The business population fake true association because they have made money out of you and hope to make more money. Those 'friends' rule by fooling as the canny Scots,Dutch and Swiss know.

....

Do not vote for a woman under any circumstances because she will be a bent and twisted person who idolises her family and is not used to harsh demands being made on her time or limitted abilities and few talents. Remember, people who go into politics are basically seeking attention for themselves. If they are on the left they will be covetous of others possessions. Punters, remember,it was  a French woman,George Sand,who inspired Marx to write The Communist Manifesto.

Any woman in politics develops into a certain type of female  dominatrix but she is in truth a mere yakking bird who brings both herself and others to ruin. Her husband and personal secretary are the first to feel the brunt of her anger when she falls from grace.

All female politicians' careers end in tears when their political lives are brought to the inevitable untimely conclusion.

To repeat,the first target of any female politician is her most fervent supporters. She often has them imprisoned for not pandering to her whims or according her the respect she claims she is entitled to as a public figure. A woman never realises that she is only a workhorse put in place by others to fulfill their demands for money or power and control of other people's assets. And that is the key to women in politics or a pattern of reverse psychology.
