110519Th Time-Honored Extended Family GAWN!
Today, I hear there's a 'conference' or 'talkfest' down on the Gold Coast, south of Brisbane, discussing issues around domestic violence in our Aboriginal Communities.
A brief in-look via ABC Breakfast on ABC1, showed little of value, but enough to recognise the same old rhetoric that never gets to what I at least, regard as the roots of these, and white societies problems.
I'm appalled more each time some 'boffin' gets airtime prophesying their opinions, yet are clearly stuck in some academic-spiral which goes nowhere worthwhile - merely more verbal about how the extremely narrow-minded laboratory view likes being evermore myopic.
Housing.
This, in terms of today's domestic violence, specially in Cultures akin to our Wise Aborigines, is where the problems are rooted.
It is a crime of immense proportions that our cultural pilots, those in academia, cannot see through and break the intellectual barriers upholding the ignorantly accepted housing models we have, particularly in Australia, but of course now by far the dominant model across the developed world.
The 'nuclear family home'.
But of course, it is not nearly so much the actual 'bricks-and-mortar', but the orientation of those who occupy the structures - the nuclear family.
A model long in it's development, over thousand of years, I guess, if we consider that most all of the ancient western world has been heading in this direction, since the earliest warlords and monarchs separated themselves, with of course their sexual partners - as often deemed Queens - from the rest of the tribe, and lived, worked, played and slept in their own isolated 'nuclear' chambers.
As the leaders of tribes have come to be the role models for the tribe, if they haven't always held that role, the rest would naturally aspire to the same living circumstances.
As the male has been the dominant partner in nuclear marriages for quite a while - perhaps in Judeo-Christian lineages, since the notorious biblical 'Fall, from the Garden of Wisdom', which may give a clue to what was before the fall, perhaps a matriarchal culture, led, or ruled, or governed by the women, but, post-Fall, as likely male-led because 'IT'S BAD OUT THERE!' so totally necessary for the most capable of physical defence of the tribe - the men - the men have chosen their own housing designs.
However, again, in reference to wider implications of 'the fall' which clearly indicate that some Wise cultural structures existed uptil the fall, and were lost after the fall, so, it's fair to assume, that the Wisest ways of living were lost.
I put it that one of the most fundamental cultural ways lost after the fall was the 'Extended Family' living and societal model.
As I've written before, and maintain, prior to the white fellas from Britain arriving invading and assuming authority in Australia, the Aborigine was still living, right across the continent and islands, in that pre-Fall 'Garden of Wisdom' way.
As, of course, I maintain, were all pre-western-colonialism cultures world-around.
And I, with my limited knowledge on Aboriginal Culture, nevertheless boldly go where it seems no other whiteface academic dares go, and assert that the Wisdom and Time-Honored Culture of the Aborigine was deeply, Wisely and Profoundly founded in their Extended Families.
Of course, other factors were likely fundamental in the ability of this 'design' to be maintained, such as their being in-the-main 'Nomadic'. But there are many examples across the continent, and in other cultures, of settled communities, as in the islands immediately north of Australia's, where very settled communities and housing models existed within the familial designs of extended families, etc.
However, as well as referring to those apparently 'lost' extended family and housing structures, any Proper analysis of today's domestic social problems in Aboriginal and white cultures/societies/families must analyse what we are forcing upon the Bleck and white Tribes, in terms of housing, and whatever negative outcomes arise from them, as-in the concomitant breakdown of intra-family and thus intra-social relationships.
So, let's go to the current and intended model, of the standard, 3-bedroom nuclear family home. Why it has come about, why it has been 'accepted' as how we should live, and what negatives come with it.
Firstly, I maintain that the nuclear family home has evolved purely because it is the most profitable way for those who have held 'authority' over their society to stay in power.
All of today's land-and-housing 'packages' grew out of the earliest land-grabbing 'pioneers' sub-dividing the huge tracts of land they, in most cases, stole from the Ab-ORIGINAL but less militarily-capable Owners.
Of the post-fall era, in Australia, which began in 1788, the land-grabbers came with, and as much brought with them, the lost tribes of Israel's corrupted economic model(s), al-be-they accompanied by the Noble and Honorable who knew better, and who tried, obviously, in vein, to establish the Righteous economic structures, principally of having government collecting the 'Economic Rent' for it's revenue.
In South Australia, one Fine white Fellow, attempted to introduce that very economic design, but, of course, was driven out by the dominant dogs of lost-tribes-corruption.
I believe his name was 'Wakefield', who put the question to the early settlers in that new-born colony of “Free men or Free land?”
Understandably, to the many settling there, a colony established quite deliberately having no convicts, thus all new settlers were free and came with enough wealth to be able to buy their way through the future decades, so there was no case for them to actually think Wisely, which in reality also means thinking selflessly, about what, in the Highest and longest terms, would be the best social and economic system to establish.
So 'free land', which is what underpins the 'economic rent for government revenue' case, had little or no chance of being taken up.
Besides, I'm sure that those with Noble minds, would not have been unaware of the threats from outside their economic borders, should such a Profound social and economic order be introduced as Law.
Always such honorable economic systems are seen as threats to the corrupted, who profit essentially and enormously, primarily from land speculation. To the corrupt, an egalitarian economic system which takes out of the society the individual's ability to callously make their billions from other peoples' most fundamental need - LAND - is the devil itself.
Exactly as we have it right across the western world.
So, today, it is accepted, although by the majority totally blinded by their own and ignorant religious ideologies and beliefs, that the 'system' has as it's foundation, the right to make a profit, no matter at what expense to the greater community, society, nation, or planet, from buying and selling land.
And the smaller the parcel of land one can sell and profit from, the better for them. Especially if one happens to have acquired large acreages. Yummy-subdivisions!
As land is the most important requirement a Human Being needs to survive, whether rented or owned, and as perhaps 98% of us are powerless against the powers-that-should-not-be - the biggest usually dynastic land-owners - we have to acquiesce to the game as it is, and, as we are most all naturally inclined to breed our own version of a family, we set out in life working toward possessing our own corner, our own castle, which would be on the most affordable piece of - land.
This is something which has grown to be the 'norm' over centuries in Australian and western societies.
That - however - DOES NOT MAKE IT RIGHT!
It just and sadly, happens to be the way it turned out.
But you get that, in this 'post-fall world'!
Say what Moses? Say what, Mr Leviticus?
So, tying this deeply corrupted economic system together with today's discussion about 'domestic violence in Aboriginal Communities', I don't think it's too large-a-leap for any audience to see the connection.
In this fallen nuclear family and housing society, the whole 'financial-year'-day-hour-minute of the income-maker's life are occupied with ensuring enough money to keep the roof over the family's heads.
This runs in almost complete contradiction with the finer and primary considerations of every person - that of their relationships, especially with their closest associates.
Family.
And more to this, the 'family' is in no way just 'mum, dad, and the 1, 2, 3 or more kids, all caged in these minimalist 'isolationist' nuclear family tragedies-er-homes.
It is a fundamental and ongoing glitch in and for the thinking processes of middle-generation adults - the parents of current children - to have to think in divided terms about how the grandparents are fairing, if the grandparents are not in the same house, or on the same patch of land. Adding to the general inefficiency of this super-division of the family, from their 'social group', from their workplace, from their other arenas of life, is this perhaps small but in both economic and relationships terms, separation of the larger family.
Then, need it be explained, is the extraordinary added expense of each nuclear family having to go-it-alone, in daily and weekly tasks once done together by either the males or the females, either with or without the boys or girls, of the larger group.
Simple, yet in relationship-terms hugely warming, nurturing comforting and beneficial to the educing of Intelligent, Wise and Honorable thinking and thus behaving, are tasks all have at some stage in their day or week to perform.
How much happier are they who get together, when ridiculous and, in-the-end, selfish economic 'musts' are not always out there waiting for us to attend to - by ourselves - to wash the family's clothing etc, to grow/harvest/process the foods, to build the housing/sheds/storage facilities, fix the motorbikes/cars/bus, brew the wine/beer or herbal medicinals and other reliefs?
But ALAS! Somewhere the devil has interceded and made it LAW that we cannot live, nurture, grow in health, in Spirit and in Wisdom, and actually be SECURE, and..., OH SHIT NO! BE HAPPY, collectively, in a large, connected, Wise, Intelligent and Contented Extended Family!
Meanwhile over in a New York prison, one of those upholders of the most evil economic system on earth - Dominique Strauss-Kahn - languishes under a 'suicide-watch'.
Dominique Strauss-Kahn, now ex-head of the International Monetary Fund. The utterly unqualified, unmeritorious, most ignoble global organisation which until now, for some 2 or 3 hundred years has ordained that all of us, and especially the Original owners of the land the IMF's military forces conquered and stole, live in the most socially, culturally and personally damaging housing models known to man and to beast.
The 'nuclear family' housing model.
Enormously opposite issues. The seemingly little problems of Aboriginal domestic violence, and the IMF and it's horrendously erroneous land, social and housing models.
Yet! Intimately connected!
Sadly, today's 'academia' who always manage to be given the most prominent, most dominant seats and podiums and airtime in these little-little talkfests as is happening down on the Glitter Coast, paid as they are by the corporations who profit under the global umbrella of the IMF, cannot pull together the Intellect, Wisdom and Honor enough to put indisputable arguments which go directly and yes, Courageously, to these bottomline FACTS, about why the Youth of our Most Wise AND Most Beautiful Aborigines are getting' 'agitated' and lash out on single mothers sheltering in these utterly farcical and indeed evil concepts of nuclear family homes.
What might that fallen angel - Dominique Strauss-Kahn - of upclub IMF heaven say about THAT!?
And, given his freedom to speak ruthlessly Truthful, what would he suggest the IMF do about curing those little-little but deadly GLOBAL Social Problems?
Actually, I'm not at all sure I would want to know!
However, it is clear that his upclubster mobs are fully aware of the 'Economic Rent' Science, if only because one Fine ex-leader of the Australian Labor Party, Mark Latham, in his book “The Latham Diaries” quotes in his introduction, Australia's own member of that heinous megalomania secret society within the IMF, the 'Illuminati', one John Winston Howard ex-PM, as recognising that the economic rent is the most honest tax!
Therefore, talkfestees down on the Fool's-Gold Coast, TALK ABOUT THAT, if'n any of you have any Integrity and desire to get to the cause of the Humble but really-REALLY ANGRY Bleck Fellas social and domestic troubles!
“Oh..., yes...., This is quite a complex and involved, concept to have to consider, darlinkxxx? Another latte dear......? Have you tried the caviar on rye - delicious!”
“Now, where were we.....? Oh yes, about next year's funding for the department at Sydney Uni campus..........”
EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!
All Praise the Immortals!
All Praise the Warriors who have fallen Fighting for a Just World!
