My past 3 posts highlights a three lifetime attempt to destroy democracy. Now is their fourth. It’s much simpler for the giant man gods to control societies with monarchies or dictatorships. Particularly when their loyalists can be put into a family of their choosing.
The Peloponnesian War was a war fought between the democracy of Athens and the dictatorship of the Spartans and their respective allies. The war was fought between 431 and 404 BCE for control of the Greek world. The child molesting Spartans were victorious, effectively containing Athenian democracy. Democratic government was finally suppressed by the Macedonians.
The Roman Republic began with the overthrow of the Roman Kingdom in 509 BCE until 27 BCE when the Republic became the Roman Empire. After a string of uprisings and civil wars; and the defeat of Mark Antony at the Battle of Actium, the Senate granted the power to rule to Octavian as Caesar Augustus in 27 BC. This was the beginning of the Roman Empire and end of the Republic. The first emperors were also a pack of perverts; just like the Spartans. Of course, they were the Spartans.

When the British colonies revolted and formed the United States the gods of Europe trembled. The French Revolution arose from a culmination of economic hardships, a rising population and Enlightenment Era thought.
Because of unrest a short lived Constitutional Monarchy was formed. It was unsuccessful because of rumors the National Assembly was to be shut down by the royals and subsequent storming of the Bastille. The monarchy was abolished.
The situation degenerated with divisions in the Assembly. The Girondists who wanted a return to the Constitutional Monarchy and the Montangards who wanted to cut off everyone’s head. In the end the slaughter of The Terror and the instability that ensued resulted in a new dictatorship run by Napolean Bonaparte. He marched the army off into the Russian winter to die. Hmmm. The royalty and the military had been harvested, democracy had been stopped.
Three major players in the revolution, and The Terror, were Maximilien Robespierre (Case Study 34), Jean-Baptiste Louvet de Couvrai (Case Study 26) and Jean Paul Marat (Case Study 1).
As a footnote, historians today began arguing if the Peloponnesian Wars ever happened; imagine that. People have always romanticized the French Revolution, then again they romanticize the pirates. A pirate Admiral Sir John Hawkins was an English naval commander, naval administrator, privateer and slave trader was the first British transatlantic slave trader.
In this post were a couple of guys who are sometimes romanticized. Here’s another guy from the French Revolution also romanticized in popular culture.
This is the birth chart of Donatien Alphonse François, better known as the Marquis de Sade (2 June 1740 – 2 December 1814) was a French Nobleman and politician of the French Revolution. He was known for his erotic writings, often glorifying sexual violence against women, young men and children. He believed in living unfettered by morals and held anti-Christian views. He was accused of sexual maltreatment by various members of his staff. His defense; he was nobility and they weren’t. He was critical of Maximillian Robespierre (Case Study 34) and the Reign of Terror which caused him to be arrested for being too moderate.
He was also arrested by Napolean for his writings. He finished his days in an asylum where he had as a lover the 13 year old daughter of the head of the facility. He has been the subject of much popular literature.
This is the birth chart of Archbishop Alexandre-Antonin Taché (23 July 1823 – 22 June 1894). He was a French Canadian Catholic Priest. He was assigned to the newly formed Diocese of St Boniface of the Western Territories during the settlement period and expansion of Canada. His parishioners (who were settlers) came into conflict with native tribes. He spoke Cree, Athabaskan and Ojibwe. He was called upon to prevent (unsuccessfully) an uprising in Saskatchewan called the North West Rebellion.
This is the birth chart of Carl Clauberg (28 September 1898 – 9 August 1957). Clauberg was a German gynecologist who conducted experiments on Jewish female subjects at Auschwitz Concentration Camp. He was given the job through his acquaintance with Heinrich Himmler’s wife (Case Study 34). He injected Jewish women’s uteruses with formaldehyde to sterilize them. He was arrested by Soviet troops in 1945 and imprisoned until 1955. Upon his release he went back to Germany and was given a position in the clinic he was employed in before the war. His identity was discovered and he was arrested but died before he could be tried.
