January 24, 2023 Conservatives acquire power to make themselves somebodies instead of solving problems for society. None of the social structures have that purpose—that is, not until corrupters redirect social structures for that purpose. When Reaganites said their purpose was to get the government off their backs, they were talking about themselves instead of the good of society. Rational persons don't have a problem with government on their backs. Even if processes are a pain in dealing with bureaucracies, the purposes are essential. The methodology of getting government off the backs of conservatives was to throw out laws and call it "deregulation." Getting rid of "eighty years of liberalism gone awry" was the stated purpose. To do that, ordered existence was discarded for the processes that the government was supposed to be controlling, such as banking laws which were designed to prevent power structures from taking over the economy and draining the economy dry for the public. In government, conservatives only show two purposes: One, to take over power; and two, to destroy vulnerable persons—neither of which are valid governmental functions. Corrupters are obsessed with power, because they cannot get where they want to be through valid methods related to rationality. Where they want to be is dominating everyone else. Domination is the basis of all corruption, as degradation and exploitation are required. Turning social structures into power structures destroys the purposes of social structures in solving the problems of society. The purpose of power structures is personal gain at everyone else's expense. Yet corrupters assume everyone is trying to be a winner as the purpose of human existence. Winning is their positive terminology for mongering power. Reagan said, if you have to explain, you are already a loser. It shows that his assumption was that everyone is trying to be a winner and the methods of producing rationality are a corruption for that purpose. What does society gain from corrupters mongering power? Corrupters mongering power is about themselves, not the good of society. Corrupters try to sell themselves by impressing gullible persons with power. A show of power is supposed to be the test of all that is right. Demagoguery is based on that principle. Demagogues show an image of power to get support from power mongering wannabes. The image of power is generated through the bliss of ignorance. That means an absence of rationality, truth, knowledge and constructivity are needed to create an image of bliss, because constructivity is extremely demanding and does not provide an image of bliss. All corrupters try to promote what they do best as the test of worth; and producing the bliss of ignorance is what they do best. Inherent in promoting the bliss of ignorance to generate power is the assumption that truth, knowledge and capabilities come out of a dark pit with no indication of the origins. Underlying that assumption is the value of conspiracies in mongering power. Conspiracies not only generate the power of numbers, they disperse sources and responsibilities throughout a large group. One of the consequences is that no one in particular is responsible for the criminality that conspirators generate. Another consequence is that sources of truth and knowledge come out of nowhere.
