Tucker looks at how our powers that wannabe are rewriting taboos to control the populace. Highlights include:

“Let’s say you wanted to control a country. How would you start? Well, you’d want to make sure you had the complete obedience of everybody inside your borders who is authorized to use deadly force. You would start with the military, and the federal law enforcement and then move your way down ultimately to agencies like the IRS. Controlling the guns would be a top priority for you if you ever wanted to go dictatorial… But let’s say you had deeper ambitions, let’s say you wanted the power not simply to control people’s behavior, but to control how they think, not just their bodies but their minds, as a god would. In that case, you’d need to take charge of the society’s taboos.”

“American society isn’t overtly religious, but it’s governed by taboos and it always has been. What’s interesting is how fast our taboos are changing. This is not happening organically. What we’re allowed to dislike is being dictated to us from above, sometimes by force. Until fairly recently, for example, it was taboo in this country to attack people on the basis of their race. That was the main lesson of the second World War, we were told again and again. The one thing we learned from the Nazis is that it’s dangerous to reduce human beings to their genetic code; there is no master race. That made sense, but apparently we no longer believe it. Punishing people based on their skin color is not only permitted in modern America, it is mandatory throughout business, government and higher education…”

“One by one with increasing speed our old taboos have been struck down. Those that remain have lost their moral force. Stealing, flaunting your wealth, striking women, smoking marijuana on the street, shameless public hypocrisy, taking other people’s money for not working, all of these things used to be considered unacceptable in America, not anymore. So, it probably shouldn’t surprise us that the greatest taboo of all is teetering on the edge of acceptability: child molestation.”

“The largest circulation newspaper in the United States revealed that one of the world’s most influential companies was promoting pedophilia and nobody in power did anything about it. The justice department did not announce an investigation, Congress did not schedule hearings, the guy who runs instagram…still has his job.”

“So far this month, the FBI’s Washington field office has issued 11 press releases. 10 out of 11 have been about January 6. Keep in mind that January 6 happened more than two and a half years ago. Now you know why the feds were ignoring kid touchers on instagram, they’re too busy to respond. They’ve got much more important things to do, like finding white supremacists. White supremacists are America’s new child molesters. We’ve got zero tolerance for white supremacists because no one threatens the life of this country more than they do.”

“But, what is it? That’s the question. But can anyone in authority actually define white supremacy? What is it? Is white supremacy liking white people too much? If so, that’s going to put those of us with white children in a pretty tough spot. Or, is white supremacy something much more obviously bad, like trying to expel all nonwhites from America and creating some kind of ethnostate? If that’s Joe Biden’s definition, what exactly is the scope of this threat?”

“When the president of the United States describes something as the worst possible crime Americans can commit, you have a right to know what that crime is. You used to have that right. Under our pre-revolutionary legal code before George Floyd, questions like these were easy to answer. A crime was defined as something that an elected legislature had explicitly banned, usually an act that hurt somebody else. In America, crimes were described precisely with words in English and then preserved in books which you could read yourself.”

“When no one’s willing to define the offense, you can’t be sure whether or not you’re committing it. You could be accused at any time and everything you have taken from you. You live in fear… When a crime has no definition, anyone can be guilty of it. It’s hard to relax in a country like that. The old system was better. Government operated on the basis of laws, not amorphous moral terror. Politicians couldn’t accuse you of something they couldn’t define. The legal code was straightforward: Child molestation was a crime, having unfashionable opinions was not. Outside of the public sphere, the population mostly governed itself, as it does in every society, and it used taboos to do it. You knew what was allowed and what wasn’t because the rules didn’t change very often.”

“Don’t let them talk you out of what you can smell. Don’t let them rationalize away your intuitive moral sense. Cling to your taboos like your life depends on them, because it does. Cherish and protect them like family heirlooms, that’s exactly what they are.”
