Lord Bertrand Russell was a Eugenicist who advocated drugs, promiscuity, and prepubescent sex.

Firstly, I certainly don't have any problems with promiscuity, indeed far from it. I think there's a strong case to be made for drug liberalisation - though I don't remember Russell talking about that, so want to know your source. Would like to know your source of his advocacy of prepubescent sex too. As for being a eugenicist, that's very dubious. You'll probably refer to his 'The Scientific Outlook' and 'The Impact of Science on Society', but were warnings, not advocacy.

The corrupt EU may change its constitution at will without Parliamentary restraint. The right of waging offensive war is enshrined, and the death penalty including for disturbances and rebellion is reintroduced.

The point is, it's not been 'reintroduced' - it's been there for decades! Though, as I said, I don't personally think it should be there, it certainly hasn't be utilised in the past and it definently does NOT demonstrate the NWO 'fascist' conspiracy, you assert, actually exists.

We've strayed very far from your initial assertions, and it's very obvious how you lack credible evidence in proving that the specific abuses you allege, presently exist.

@AnonymousWhitePerson You need medication, unfortunately that wont cure you of being a dick. He was for free love, but spoke about the need for it to be moral. What you are doing is launching unfounded attacks on a man who you are not fit to comment on, due to your brain being about as effective as a syphilitic one-eyed monkey. Which is a very apt analogy for you, I feel. Everybody who reads your clap trap has lost a portion of their will to live and as such, please fuck off the internet. thanks

@jacksawild

id just say for someone who is a member of the British aristocracy..and a proponent of British philosophy..that the British Empire and what it thinks best for the world is a fraud. This is not a question of international politics from the standpoint of individual sovereign nations, this is international Geo-politics from the standpoint of the British Empire.."vital interests".."firm agreement".."sounds like you watch your back ill watch mine".where's the cooperation on advancement?

@empire161 Concerning the "prepubescent sex" claim, the only thing I can think of remotely along those lines was Russell saying (or publishing I can't remember) something about parents not smacking a baby (or maybe it was a toddler) for "playing" with their "privates". If that is his basis for the claim, then I fear his parents must have smacked him a bit too hard.

As for promiscuity, There's nothing wrong with it as long as it's "practitioners" accept the responsibility for the "consequences".

Thanks for sharing, pure gold.

Properly none of Bertrand Russell's Policies on mass Depopulatoin can be considered seriously orginal; the doctrine was already spelled out in detail as the population policies embedded in the decrees of Roman Emperor, Diocletion.

The British ruling stratum and their banking clique want no less than to reduce the world to a picaresque parody or Pre-Renaissance feudalism.

In January 2009 almost half of tested samples of commercial High-Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) contained considerable Mercury, according to a recent issue of "Environmental Health."

Researchers found detectable levels of Mercury in nine of 20 samples of commercial HFCS.
