Are the Ruling Elite the Subconscious Inspiration for
Postmodern Vampire Mythology?
Based on a discussion
with the friend whom I call Nero the Pict, in a small Pennsylvania town, on
July 22, 2017.
Books, comics, movies and TV, a generation after Anne Rice’s
Interview with a Vampire, remain
dominated by the vampire, often the sympathetic vampire.
Why are multiple generations of Americans wedded to this
antiheroic figure?
How come the vampire has become the hero?
Essentially, the vampire represents apex parasitism. He is
not the sneaky mosquito or ankle biting flea that steals a drink of blood at
its peril, but dominates the human herd one meal at a time while mesmerizing
the vast human collective. Seen in that light, the modern real life counterpart
of the vampire is the Deep State, which is to say those intelligence agencies
that inform, misinform, elevate and depose our political class. Just like the
vampire who lives on in undead form to afflict generations of humans, the Deep
State is a permanent political organism, nigh immortal compared to the
four-year president, with each of its agents serving at least five times longer
than an elected official.
That is an adult’s view of the vampire. But what of the child?
Does the life of a child have a unique correlation with the vampire myth?
Eaters of the Young
I wanted to cry when Trevor, my grandson said, “School is
death,” at age 5. This is the view of the healthy loved child who is taken from
his parents and numerous grandparents and aunts and uncles who normally take
care of him and teach him when his parents are working [since he is not allowed
to work and is thus severed from his father] and placed among a herd of peers
under the direction of a strange adult.
I have known numerous people who were raped as children and
Trevor, at age 5, had an instinctive sense that he was being taken from safety
and placed into peril simply based on the mechanics of the social setting, not
on any threat by the teacher, who was a doll-baby deluded liberal mothering the
children that might otherwise have stretched out her boyish hips and made
jogging inconvenient. Any system is susceptible to manipulation, most easily
and effectively from above, a dietary pyramid for devouring human souls. Trevor
had a sense for this. I discovered this on my first day of school. Any person
placed in prison—the institution with more architectural and systemic
commonalities to the public school than any other—soon learns this.
Due to the underlying aspect of all systems, manipulation of
lesser humans by greater, will occur and rape is the most extreme aspect of
these manipulations. This has been cherry-picked by the media. Let me use the
Catholic Church for one example.
The most recent sensational example of child rape is a
Netflix documentary called The Keepers about a priest, who was also a
psychiatrist and the principal of a girl’s school, systematically and blatantly
raping girls and killing the nun who tried to stop him. He did this all with
Baltimore City Police assistance. One cop interviewed was still terrified that
other cops would punish him, even though this happened some 45 years ago!
Yes, the media has the knives out for the Catholic
Church. But rather than consume their
takeaway let us look at it logically.
The principal was a priest and a psychiatrist. To most
Christians, psychiatry is a blasphemous abomination, a twisted view of
humanity. His priestly status gave him unquestionable stature. But might it
have been the psychiatry in play when he attacked?
As far as Catholics abusing children in this instance there
was the monster priest and the hero nun, who died protecting her girls. That is
a moral wash.
The principal/priest/psychiatrist did all of his vile deeds
in cooperation with numerous on duty police officers, who were allowed to rape
beautiful young girls as part of their induction into his rape cult. Police
departments are systems entirely built on attracting operatives with a need for
power over others. Might this be viewed as a police crime?
And finally, the purest view is that all of the prey were
female children, their defender was a single female adult and all of the
predators were adult males.
In a practical view, the girls were doomed, because their
protector was a lone female, operating out of an assumption of moral
superiority, who was in a closed female herd bounded by male predators. If this
nun had been a woman married to a deer hunting redneck, well then we might have
had a positive resolution, with two cops and a priest having their heads blown
off.
This is why all systems deny the heroic and exclude attached
adult males from in-system contact with the prey that has been taken from their
protection. This is also why younger brothers of the child’s parents—the creepy
uncle—have been used as the mainstay child rapist by the media, for it is
exactly this man who is most likely to avenge his niece or nephew. And who
would punish him? The police and their robed masters, the ushers and priests of
the Soul-Eating State.
Let us now look at the vampire’s prey from a dietary view:
Delectable Youth
The best peas are “young” peas, advertised as such, or as
“tiny,” “petite,” or “tender,” on every package label. Such labeling targets
older adult consumers.
Likewise baby carrots, baby potatoes and pearl onions [my
favorite] are all regarded as tastier than the adult versions of these foods.
As for meat, veal, a tormented and abused baby bovine is
regarded as the tastiest and most valuable meat in the supermarket case, so
valuable that it is cut to order only.
Does one eat mutton or lamb?
Of course, the superior taste of baby sheep over adult sheep
is so pronounced that only mythic trolls—and one supposes, British Commonwealth
troops—dine on mutton.
Might it be that new life tastes better, that that soul
which has been bathed less in social toxins and remains innocent is tastiest to
the eater of souls?
Might it simply be that absolute power can only be had by
being the puppet master and also preying on the most innocent?
At the same time that the Vampire Antihero Cult rose in the
early 1980s, comic book superheroes began to enjoy increased popularity at the
expense of traditional heroes. In the
1970s book racks were packed with Tarzan, Conan, John Carter of Mars and a host
of lesser heroes of fantasy.
By the mid-1980s these books were gone and the comic book
superhero—who was absolutely unassailable in his apex position, unlike the
human heroes of Howard and Burroughs—had graduated from wire spinner racks to
the shelves and spread like iconic locusts of absolute dominance. Ironically, a
superhero can only be beaten if he makes a mistake or if the villain finds a
loophole in his power array, again, like the Vampire Antihero, immune to the
efforts of mortals—essentially a walking god.
Vampires through a Child’s
Eyes
The primary characteristics of the postmodern vampire in
fiction, whether monster or hero, and now more often than not serving the
writer as a hero, are:
-Great strength, the vampire possessing such physical
advantage over a mortal that the mortal in his hands is as a child.
-Great age, the vampire being so much older than the mortal
that it has lived for numerous human lifetimes. This compares to the typical
abuser of a child being older by multiples than the point where the child loses
its innocence.
-Ignorance of the world—innocence in vampire terms—a world
known in detail by the vampire, is the common state of the victim upon which
the vampire feeds. Just as the voter knows almost nothing about the interests
the politician he elects serves, the vampire’s victim is childlike in her
innocence.
-The vampire is cultic, belonging to a deeply imbedded coven
of conspirators. This is unique to the postmodern vampire. Where Stoker’s
Dracula was a lone manipulator with a few servants, agents and wives, the Rice
vampire is but one member of an unseen hierarchy that shadows and supersedes
and feasts upon the mortal order, much as the police and priest ate the souls
of the innocent in the case of The Keepers discussed above. Child prisons were
staff routinely rape inmates are an excellent example, as are public schools,
where sex with students has become a common activity among female teachers,
women seeming particularly susceptible to the temptation to use levers of
systemic power to amplify their own miniscule power.
-Mortal laws of physics do not bind the vampire to the feeble lot of men, enabling him to avoid all blame for his actions by simply vanishing, just as the adult is not bound by the same rules as the child, nor the teacher subject to the strictures applied to the student, nor the cop compelled to live a law abiding life like those he polices.
-As with the child rapist, the vampire is destroyed—and most
fears—the light of revelation, which kills him, taking all of his clandestine
powers away as soon as his vile identity is subject to the light of day. This
last case is key in understanding the postmodern vampire as a surrogate for our
masters: for the Pizzagate politicians who rape Haitian orphans are vulnerable
to the popularity politics of the machine they operate should they be
illuminated within it. It is no accident that the most powerful manipulators of
the greater society thirst to dine upon the innocence of unsullied youth. I am
certain that a look at their dinner lists will reveal an unusual level of lamb
and veal consumption and that only tender, early, petite peas pass their palates.
Conclusion
The key to keeping such a system in place is the nuclear
family, which has no heroic element, cannot, for the hero or heroine is a
sacrificial actionist and if Mom or Dad kill the person who raped their child
they will be imprisoned and the family will lose half of its adults and
probably its home. There is a video on YouTube, shot in an airport, of a father
of a raped karate student slaying the karate instructor-rapist while in custody
during extradition.
What a man, vilified by our sick society.
What a hero.
