Alternative Lyrics to Well Known Songs 40 - We Are Beautiful

This weeks alternative lyrics series is a dance track from the decade that brought you cultural paraphernalia like spiked hair, paint-stained jeans, and crystal-meth!

I decided to include a dance track to show you what the establishment (aka 'the powers that be', i.e. the government, police and other assorted lackies) attitude is to movements that come out of the left-field.  After all the pro-men movement (manosphere, MGTOW, call it what you will) is out of the left-field, so it seems logical that it should encounter similar hostility that other left-field cultural movements have experienced in the past.

The dance/rave scene that took of in the UK during the 1990s was so Left-Field that the establishment in the UK took offence to it.  During the 1990s the Police regularly hunted around for ‘illegal raves’ to try and shut down (like here and here ), while in the Houses of Parliament the government of the day (the Conservatives) passed a law to make raves illegal.

The establishment tried to shut down the raves even though they were full of peaceful White people dancing in abandoned buildings. This is in total contrast to the violent Black Notting Hill Carnivals in metropolitan London that the police don’t try to shut down.  Violent carnivals that can end in violence, even murder.  It's just another example of how the law is used against white people.  White people who just want to get together to have a good time and blow off some steam.

What this shows is that the establishment oppose any activity that they can’t control, particularly when it's white people organising themselves of their own volition and to do their own will. Whether those white people are left-leaning ravers or right-leaning nationalists is irrelevant, political persuasion is largely meaningless.  The establishment look down upon anyone that doesn't act or think like them.  It's grim, but that's the way it is.

In contrast to the grimness of the establishment attitude towards left-field sub-cultures, the lyrics for this weeks 'alternative lyrics..' post are upbeat and generally encourage you to express your inner light, your own radiance and brilliance, whatever form that may come in.

We are all a thousand points of light, each going in our own direction, yet all going in the same direction, onwards!
 

As always, play the music video given below and sing along in your own head, or out loud if so inclined.

# We are Beautiful #
Our inner light will be our guide.
And take us to a place where we don’t need to hide.
Ascend up to the top-most floor.
We’ll be magnificent and pure.
We are beautiful, we are the race that’s white.
We are beautiful, let’s shout the race that’s white.
Let our radiance come from,
our in-ner light.
We are beautiful we are.
We are beautiful let’s shout.
We are beautiful we are.


We are beautiful let’s shout.

We are beautiful we are the race that’s white.
We are beautiful let’s shout the race that’s white.
Let our radiance come from,
our in-ner light.
We are beautiful we are.
We are beautiful let’s shout.
We are beautiful we are.


We are beautiful let’s shout,
to the rest of the world about,
all that we can do.
We are angels we are free,
to be what we want to be;
Anything that we might.
We are beautiful we are the race that’s white.
We are beautiful let’s shout the race that’s white.
Let our radiance come from,
our in-ner light.
We are beautiful we are.
We are beautiful let’s shout.
We are beautiful we are.


We are beautiful we are the race that’s white.
We are beautiful let’s shout the race that’s white.
Let our radiance come from,
our in-ner light.
We are beautiful we are.
We are beautiful let’s shout.
We are beautiful we are.


We are beautiful we are the race that’s white.
We are beautiful let’s shout the race that’s white.
Let our radiance come from,
our in-ner light.
We are beautiful we are.
We are beautiful let’s shout.
We are beautiful we are.

Men of Yore: Tiberius Gracchus

This is intended to be a series of posts about men from history who have either achieved great things in one form or another by pushing boundaries: either in themselves or in society or science or exploration of some form. Boundary pushing and growth is what men do, it's their nature: to grow and push outwards. We, as men, are the frontiers men, the first to discover/uncover new territory, in a metaphysical sense (i.e. including both material and the immaterial) that is later colonised and 'civilised' by the rest of humanity.


Tiberius Gracchus


Tiberius and his brother Gaius Gracchus were to be two men who should become famous, if not infamous, for their struggle for the lower classes of Rome.

They themselves though originated from Rome's very elite. Their father was a consul and military commander and their mother was from the distinguished patrician familiy of the Scipios. - At the death of her husband she even turned down a marriage proposal by the king of Egypt.

Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus at first distinguished himself in the army (as an officer in the Third Punic was he is said to have been the first man over the wall at Carthage), after which he was elected quaestor. When in Numantia an entire army found itself in dire straits, it was Tiberius' negotiation skill, which managed to save the lives of 20'000 Roman soldiers and thousands more among the auxiliary units and camp followers. However, the senate disliked what they called a dishonourable treaty which saved lives, but admitted defeat. If the intervention by his brother-in-law Scipio Aemilianus saved at least the general staff (including Tiberius) from suffering any indignity at the hands of the senate, then the commander of the force, Hostilius Mancinus, was arrested, put in irons and handed over to the enemy. When Gracchus won the election to the tribunate in 133 BC he had probably no intention of starting a revolution. His aim was largely economic.

Long before his rise to fame, the plebeians who wanted office and social recognition had made common cause with the urban poor and the landless country dwellers.

Was the plight of landless Italian farm workers hard enough, it was now further endangered by the rise of slave labour, by which rich land owners now sought to maintain their vast estates.

It could indeed be suggested that those very estates had been acquired agaisnt the rule of law. Law according to which the peasantry should have shared in the land.

As any projects of reform which would touch their own wealth or power would naturally be opposed by the nobles, Tiberius' ideas of land reform should win him few friends in the senate. Tiberius brought forward a bill to the concilium plebis for a creation of allotments mostly out of the large area of public land which the republic had acquired after the Second Punic War. Those currently living on the land would be restricted to what had for some time been the legal limit of ownership (500 acres plus 250 acres for each of up to two sons; i.e. 1000 acres), and would be compensated by being granted a hereditary rent-free lease.

This was a significant political package at a time of general unrest and of expansion abroad. It also restored to the list of those eligible for military service (for which a tradition of qualification was the possession of land) a section of society which had fallen out of the reckoning.

After all, Rome needed soldiers. Leading jurists of the day confirmed that his intentions were indeed legal.

But however reasonable some of his arguments might have been, Gracchus with his contempt for the senate, his flagrant populism and political brinkmanship, heralded a change in the nature of Roman politics. The stakes were getting ever higher, things were becoming more brutal. Rome's well-being seemed more and more to be a secondary factor in the great contest of egos and boundless ambition.
Also the passions whipped up during Tiberius' and Gaius' brief time in office is largely seen as having led to the following period of social strife and civil war.

Gracchus' bill was unsurprisingly supported by the popular assembly. But the other Tribune of the people, Octavius, used his powers to overrule the law. Gracchus now replied by applying his own veto as Tribune to every sort of action by government, in effect bringing the rule of Rome to a standstill. Rome's government was to deal with his bill, before any other matter should be dealt with. Such was his intention. At the next assembly he reintroduced his bill. Once again there was no doubt of its success in the assembly, but once again Octavius vetoed it. At the next assembly Gracchus proposed that Octavius should be deposed from office. This was not within the Roman constitution, but the assembly voted for it nonetheless. Tiberius' agrarian bill was then voted on once again and became law. Three commissioners were appointed to administer the scheme; Tiberius himself, his younger brother Gaius Sempronius Gracchus and Appius Claudius Pulcher, 'leader' of the senate - and Tiberius' father-in-law.

The commission began work at once and some 75'000 smallholdings may have been created and handed to farmers.

As the commission began to run out of money Tiberius simply proposed to the popular assemblies to simply use the available funds from the kingdom of Pergamum, which Rome had recently acquired. The senate was in no mood to be outwitted again, particularly not on matters of finance. It unwillingly passed the proposal. But Tiberius was not making any friends. Particularly as the deposition of Octavius was a revolution, if not a coup d'état. Under the given conditions Gracchus could have introduced any law on his own, given popular support. It was a clear challenge to the senate's authority.

So too, hostile feelings against Gracchus arose, when rich, influential men discovered that the new law may deprive them of land they saw as their own.

In such hostile conditions it was distinctly possible that Gracchus was in danger of prosecution in the courts as well as assassination. He knew it and therefore realized that he had to be re-elected to enjoy the immunity of public office.

But the laws of Rome were clear that no man was to hold office without interval. His candidacy was in effect illegal.

The senate failed in an attempt to bar him from standing again, but a group of enraged senators, led by his hostile cousin Scipio Nasica, charged into an election rally of Tiberius', broke it up and, alas, clubbed him to death. Nasica had to flee the country and died at Pergamum. On the other hand some of Gracchus' supporters were punished by methods which were positively illegal, too.

Scipio Aemilianus on his return from Spain was now called upon to save the state. He probably was in sympathy with the real aims of Tiberius Gracchus, but detested his methods. But to reform Rome it would need a man of less scruples and perhaps less honour.

One morning Scipio was found dead in his bed, believed to have been murdered by the supporters of Gracchus (129 BC).

Tiberius Gracchus was a man who understood that:
Small farms owned and worked by free farmers are more important than plantations owned by aristocrats yet worked by slaves.

Or in other words..
..small businesses owned and worked by citizens are more important than large corporations owned by CEOs yet worked by minimum wage workers.

Or in yet more other words..
..autarky is more important than decadence and slavery.

Whenever governments cease to protect and respect farms, small businesses, or people and instead protect plantations, multi-national corporations, and slavery then you know that your government know longer cares about you.  Thankfully the world is not only populated by sociopathic megalomaniacs intent on sucking the marrow out of the poor man, it is also populated by men who care about the working classes.  Tiberius Gracchus was one of those men who cared for the working classes and tried to improve there lot by guaranteeing all of them land (ergo a job, property, along with food, clothing (wool) and other goods that could be produced on the farmland).

Alternative Lyrics to Well Known Songs 39 - Don't Call Me Racist

('Don't Call Me Racist' is based on 'Don't Call Me Baby' by 'Maddison Avenue')

Oh goodness me, don't Beeboids at the BBC ever tire of the PC (Politically Correct) drivel that they spew out every waking hour..  A black woman as Guinevere in the series Merlin (which is based on the English Medieval story of Arthur and Camelot etc), nearly every other News presenter is racial minority, and BBC Radio has a dedicated Asian Network channel.  The list goes on and on.  It's awfully boring, awfully tedious, and awfully predictable.

Though the BBC may well be an institution that is not worthy of any compliments or superlatives at all because of it's obsession with Anti-White PC, you can say one thing in their favour: they are nothing if not thorough!  They'd certainly beat Joseph Goebbels in the 'Most abominable propaganda agent in modern times' award!

The BBC regularly spues out Anti-White propaganda throughout it's network, both the BBC and the UKTV network (UKTV is owned by BBC Worldwide, which also owns BBC America and other channels around the world).  Whether it's portraying white husbands as dogs in 'Bring Your Husband to Heel' or showing yet another WW2 documentary about 'the evil NAZI Germans' (notice that they never show one on the evils of the Japanese in the 1940s (Unit 731) or Aztec Empires), or portraying Blond white men as bumbling desperate homosexuals in Holby City, one of the central tenets of the BBC is to spew Racist propaganda against the White Race.  This song is about that.

And!  For added shits and giggles, this song is a re-written version of a typical PC 'Girl Power' song which were used to demoralise the men of the 1990s.  As Sun Tzu have said, the best way of disarming an enemy is to take his weapons and use them against him (Therefore in chariot fighting, when ten or more chariots have been taken, those should be rewarded who took the first. Our own flags should be substituted for those of the enemy, and the chariots mingled and used in conjunction with ours).  So that's exactly what I've done!  Taken a PC song and turned it into an Anti-PC song!

Play the song in the video above and sing along using the alternative lyrics given below.


# Don't Call Me Racist #
B.B.C.
It forces us to watch PC
TV
And forces miscegnation on
All of,
the natives of the British Isles
We're here to tell you Beeboids we know that you're full of lies.


Don't think that we are dumb.
We can see what you have done.
You have denigrated Whites
In every possible way
Blacks in Merlin
and hatred of Germans
We know what you Beeboids are,
You are the Racists.
Your five billion budget really helps you to
Spread your filthy racists views.
It's time to stop calling us racists.
We know what you are
It's you who are racists.


You peddle lies about EDL
I must admit this does not sit with the likes of me.
You're full of shit.
Mmm you spew rubbish.
Even my own children say "liar, liar pants on fire."


Don't think that we are dumb.
We can see what you have done.
You have denigrated Whites
In every possible way
Blacks in Merlin,
and hatred of Germans
We know what you Beeboids are,
You are the Racists.
Your five billion budget really helps you to,
Spread your filthy racists views.
It's time to stop calling us racists.
We know what you are
It's you who are racists.


B.B.C.
it forces us to watch PC
TV.
And forces miscegnation on,
all of,
the natives of the British Isles.
We're here to tell you Beeboids we know that you're full of lies.


Don't think that we are dumb.
We can see what you have done.
You have denigrated Whites
In every possible way.
Blacks in Merlin,
and hatred of Germans
We know what you Beeboids are,
You are the Racists.
Your five billion budget really helps you to
Spread your filthy racists views.
It's time to stop calling us racists.
We know what you are
It's you who are racists.

Men of Yore: Pavel Schilling

Pavel Schilling



Baron Pavel L’vovitch Schilling made significant contributions in the field of electrical telegraphy in the early twentieth century and was in fact the pioneer in inventing electromagnetic telegraphy.

Pavel Schilling was born as Paul Constadt, Baron von Schilling in Reval, in present Estonia in 1786. He worked as a diplomat at the Russian embassy in Munich, Germany. It was here that he witnessed electricity for the first time and derived his inspiration for working with electricity. He developed a way to detonate explosives using electric wires from a distance. In 1813-14, Schilling returned home to Russia to fight against Napoleon’s invading army. Afterwards he went to Paris and expanded his knowledge on electric mines, cables and telegraphy. He also learned about Oersted’s discovery of electromagnetism and spent the next several years working on a practical telegraph system using electromagnetism. He was also influenced by Sturgeon, Ampere and Schweigger.

In 1828, Schilling launched his first prototype telegraph using electric current transferred along the wires stretched between two locations. In 1832, he made a short distance transmission of electric signals between two telegraphs in two different rooms of his apartment. He was the first to put into practice a binary system of signal transmission. Schilling demonstrated his telegraph model to the Tsar in St. Petersburg. In 1835, he demonstrated at the congress of scientists in Bonn. In 1836, the British government tried to buy Schilling’s design but he offered it to Russia. His model was tested on a 5 kilometers experimental ground with also some underwater cables laid around the building of the Admiralty in St. Petersburg and was approved for a telegraph between the imperial palace at Peterhof and the naval base at Kronstadt. However, Schilling died in 1837 and this telegraph line was not built in the end.

Though Schilling’s electromagnetic telegraph line was not actually built, it provided an influential model for future telegraphs and inspired others like William Cooke.

The mid-19th century was a pioneering time in world technology: iron-clad ships were invented, as were steam engines, new farming techniques were introduced, and new chemicals were discovered, also during this time telegraphy was invented.  Telegraphy has revolutionised communication around the world, both on a local, national and international scale.  No longer do people have to wait days for a horseman to deliver messages from A to B (assuming that it did indeed arrive and wasn't stolen by a highwayman on the road or a pirate on the seas).  Instead they can have their message delivered instantly and at minimal cost.  These benefits are not a new development, they didn't come around with the invention of the mobile phone, they came around in the 1850's thanks to men like Pavel Schelling who revolutionised international communication.

Men of Yore: Richard Chancellor

This is intended to be a series of posts about men from history who have either achieved great things in one form or another by pushing boundaries: either in themselves or in society or science or exploration of some form. Boundary pushing and growth is what men do, it's their nature: to grow and push outwards. We, as men, are the frontiers men, the first to discover/uncover new territory, in a metaphysical sense (i.e. including both material and the immaterial) that is later colonised and 'civilised' by the rest of humanity.


Richard Chanellor (1553)

Richard Chancellor (died 1556) was an English explorer and navigator; the first to penetrate to the White Sea and establish relations with Russia.

Chancellor, a native of Bristol, acquired geographical and maritime proficiency from the explorer Sebastian Cabot and the geographer John Dee. Cabot had always been interested in making a voyage to Asia through the Arctic, and for this purpose King Edward VI chartered an association of English merchants, the Company of Merchant Adventurers in 1552–1553, with the Duke of Northumberland as principal patron. They hoped not only to discover a North-east passage but also to find a market for English woollen cloth.

Sir Hugh Willoughby was given three ships for the search, and Chancellor went as second-in-command. Their orders from the King included behaving peacably towards any people they met and keeping a regular journal. According to Howarth contrary winds delayed the expedition seriously but they eventually arrived off the North Cape as autumn set in, and were separated by a violent storm; Willoughby, with two ships, sailed east and discovered Novaya Zemlya but died during the winter with all his men on the Lapland coast some distance east of Murmansk. The bodies and journals were discovered by Russian hunters in the spring. Meanwhile, Chancellor noted and named the North Cape and with his ship Edward Bonaventure called at the Norwegian port of Vardø, the last town in Scandinavia before the inhospitable arctic coast of Russia; here they met Scottish fisherman who warned them of the dangers ahead. However continuing eastwards they found the entrance to the White Sea and after obtaining directions from local people dropped anchor at the port of Archangel.[1] 
When Tsar Ivan the Terrible heard of Chancellor's arrival, he immediately invited the exotic guest to visit Moscow for an audience at the royal court. Chancellor made the journey of over 600 miles (over 1000 kilometres) to Moscow by horse-drawn sleigh through snow and ice covered country. He found Moscow large (much larger than London) and primitively built, most houses being constructed of wood. However, the palace of the tsar was very luxurious, as were the dinners he offered Chancellor.[2] The Russian tsar was pleased to open the sea trading routes with England and other countries, as Russia did not yet have a connection with the Baltic Sea at the time and the entire area was contested by the neighbouring powers of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Swedish Empire. In addition, the Hanseatic League had a monopoly on the trade between Russia and Central and Western Europe. Chancellor was no less optimistic, finding a good market for his English wool, and receiving furs and other Russian goods in return. The Tsar gave him letters for England inviting English traders and promising trade privileges.

When Chancellor returned to England in the summer of 1554, King Edward was dead, and his successor, Mary, had executed Northumberland for attempting to place Lady Jane Grey on the throne. No stigma attached to Chancellor, and the Muscovy Company, as the association was now called, sent him again to the White Sea in 1555. On this voyage he learned what had happened to Willoughby, recovered his papers, and found out about the discovery of Novaya Zemlya. Chancellor spent the summer of 1555 dealing with the Tsar, organising trade, and trying to learn how China might be reached by the northern route.

In 1556 Chancellor departed for England, taking with him the first Russian ambassador to his country, Osip (i.e.Joseph) Nepeya. They left Archangel in autumn; the fleet was Willoughby's ships (relaunched), the Philip and Mary and the Edward Bonadventure. In October/November the fleet tried to winter in Trondheim. The Bona Esperanza sank, the Bona Confidentia appeared to enter the fjord but was never heard of again, and the Philip and Mary successfully wintered in Trondheim and arrived in London next 18 April. The Edward did not attempt to enter, instead reaching the Scottish coast and being wrecked at Pitslago on 7 November. Chancellor lost his life, although the Russian envoy survived to reach London.

Chancellor had found a way to Russia, and though in time it was superseded by a better one it remained for years the only feasible route for the English.
He died at Pitsligo Bay on 10 November 1556 .[3]

An Englishman who actually tried to improve relations between England and Russia?  Surely this is a joke?!  Everyone knows that Englishmen have never aspired to better relations with Russians!
  • In the 19th century they were at war over the Crimea;
  • In the early 20th they were involved in court intrigues (cf. Rasputin and all that jazz) trying to cause havoc in government;
  • In the mid 20th century there were Cold War shenanigans;
  • And now there are trade embargoes and lord knows what going on in Ukraine 
Well Richard Chancellor is proof that relations between England and Russia need not always be bad.  The same goes for other countries (or indeed any group of people, countries are just groups of people who self-identify as a community).  Peaceful co-existence is preferable to war-filled existence when it benefits both sides.  Chancellor set out to make contact and establish peaceful co-existence with Ivan the Terrible in the form of trade: English wool in exchange for Russian furs.  If only we had a man like that now then we in the West would be opening up trading opportunities rather than trying to provoke Russia into open warfare.
