Appendix 2

An analysis of the Fabian Society, a group of influential intellectuals who advocated for a socialist world order. The author claims that the Fabians, through their work on eugenics, population control, and scientific management, were striving to create a global empire based on scientific principles. The text further contrasts the Fabian vision with the approach of Franklin Roosevelt, who sought a world order based on national sovereignty and international cooperation. It argues that Roosevelt's anti-colonial vision was thwarted by the influence of the Fabian Society and its members like John Maynard Keynes, who succeeded in shaping the Bretton Woods Agreement to serve the interests of the British Empire.

Appendix 1

The Round Table movement aimed to revive the British Empire by indoctrinating young elites into a system of scientific dictatorship and materialist struggle.

The Round Table movement used the ideas of Thomas Huxley’s X Club, a group of imperial intellectuals, to justify the rule of the strong over the weak. This idea of a “scientific dictatorship” was promoted by the X Club as a means of controlling the masses and saving the collapsing British Empire. The X Club also aimed to establish a “new scientific religion based upon Charles Darwin’s highly materialistic model of Natural Selection”.

The movement, as envisioned by Cecil Rhodes, sought to create a secret society that would extend British rule through colonization and the indoctrination of young elites. Rhodes established the Rhodes Trust to achieve this goal, providing scholarships and networking opportunities to promising young individuals, primarily from Anglo-Saxon nations. These individuals, upon completion of their studies, would return to their home countries and use their positions in government, media, and academia to advance the goals of the British Empire. The Round Table movement aimed to shape public perception and steer society away from progress and truth towards a “materialistic struggle for survival.”

The Empire on which the Black Sun Never Set - Book review

Wed, 18 Sep 2024 07:49:18 GMT

This is an overall review of the book.

The next episodes will be chapter by chapter.

The sources provided reveal a disturbing narrative of covert support for international fascism by Anglo-American powers, extending from the interwar period into the late 20th century. The excerpts highlight how figures like Oswald Mosley, the leader of the British Union of Fascists, garnered support from influential figures within British society and politics. Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi's vision for a Pan-European Union, while ostensibly promoting unity and peace, raises questions about its potential to serve as a vehicle for a new form of fascism, particularly in light of Kalergi's interactions with former Nazis and proponents of a hierarchical world order. The sources further illuminate the continuation of fascist networks after World War II, operating under the guise of anti-communism, often with the complicity of intelligence agencies like the CIA. These networks engaged in covert operations, including the "Great Heroin Coup" and various coups d'état, to further their agendas. The sources suggest a deliberate manipulation of public perception through propaganda and misinformation campaigns like Operation Mockingbird, designed to shape narratives and control the flow of information. This manipulation extended to the downplaying or obfuscation of the role of neo-Nazi groups in events like the Ukrainian crisis. Overall, the sources paint a picture of a persistent and insidious undercurrent of fascism woven into the fabric of modern history, often operating beneath the surface and masked by seemingly noble objectives, yet driven by a lust for power, control, and the perpetuation of a hierarchical global order.
