The Radicalism Of The Aggrieved

Who are the revolutionaries and the radicals of today? By definition a revolutionary wants to overthrow the established power, whilst a radical wishes to radically transform that power. Yet all too often, as history shows, revolutionaries and radicals have reinforced and have enhanced power, to the detriment of ordinary people.
The French Revolution, for example, proclaimed liberty, but strengthened the State, intensifying the suffering of the poor, by making war on its own people and conscripting the men folk for its endless wars.
A similar thing happened some 70 years later when the Bourbons of Naples were overthrown by the revolutionary Garibaldi. Again, the poor paid the price with land seizures, higher taxes and conscription.
Radical politics, although not revolutionary have a similar deleterious effect, increasing the power of the powerful and decreasing the autonomy of the poor. In England, such  examples  include the introduction of Income Tax, which empowers the State to monitor your every economic action, compulsory indoctrination and education in 1870, and the nationalisation and bureaucratisation of the health service in 1948.
Always, radicals like to present themselves as new and anti-system, while all the while strengthening the system of Domination. When the answer to a problem is more government we can be sure of their bad intentions.
In modern times we see radical campaigns against working people by those who know better than us. They are against what we eat, what we drink, what we smoke, what we say, how we love, how we look after our children, how we work. They want to regulate every aspect of our lives. They place their own hatred of the Other upon our heads and call us bigots. For the bureaucrat, the working-class man, with his beer and his laughter, his games and his love of freedom is all too scary. The bureaucrat cannot understand a person whose life does not revolve around introspection and self-righteousness.
So state-sponsored grievance groups are set up to combat sexism, racism, homophobia, domestic violence, child abuse, and goodness knows what else the savages might be up to.
All too often trivial actions, a few 'offensive' remarks are the excuse for a show trial set up by the Vichy Radicals. Teachers, social workers, council officials, employees of state 'charities' seek out Evil as fervently as any Inquisitor ever did, exploiting the poor to build their empires.
In creating a Radicalism of the Aggrieved  the bureaucrats stoke the fires of conflict between us, categorising us, dividing us, creating an atmosphere of distrust and tension, isolating us from one another.
The aim is to find scapegoats, to set us at each others throats, and to set up the State as the arbiter.
The Aggrieved are presented as having a grievance against other people, not as having a grievance against Power. State sponsored pressure groups such as Stonewall, the NSPCC and countless others try to tell us that they represent people who being discriminated against, and they invite you to identify as one of the Aggrieved, a passive victim succoured by the State.
These modern radicals like to claim that they are remodelling society, but in fact, they are simply chipping away at autonomous society.
Radicals, Progressives and their ilk have only ever wanted one thing - more power to the military bureaucratic complex.
Dealings with the state and its radical supporters should be avoided whenever possible.
