Amway Apologists Narcisitic Personalities! Amway Apologists Cult Like Themselves

I am happy to be able to post some more very good work by British Author and well known guide to the 'Amway' labyrinth, David Brear.

David Irving, ‘His Struggle’(with reality).

On November 11th 2005, the controversial British author and discredited ‘WWII historical researcher,’ David Irving (aged 67), was arrested in the southern Austrian State of Styria on charges of ‘denying the Holocaust’ under a warrant issued in 1989. Since the end of WWII, it has been a criminal offence to deny the Holocaust (in public) in numerous European democracies liberated from rule by the closed-logic ‘Nazi’ myth of ‘Aryan Supremacy.’ Although Irving was fully-aware that he had been barred from entering Austria (where he risked 10 years imprisonment), he did not seek to hide his presence. According to his Danish partner, Bente Hogh (aged 42), Irving had gone there as ‘a bit of fun, to provoke a little bit.’ In other words, the notoriously litigious author had deliberately sought confrontation with the law, and it was particularly shameful that Armistice Day should have been chosen to stage this narcissistic self-publicity stunt. Soon after his arrest, Irving issued a precisely-worded statement (via his lawyer, Elmar Kresbach), in which he acknowledged ‘the existence of Nazi-era gas chambers.’ Irving seems to have convinced himself that this empty gesture would be sufficient for him to dodge prison.

From the mid-1980s (when he became associated with the California-based, Holocaust-denying ‘Institute for Historical Review’), Irving has descended into the stale darkness of an existing intellectual bunker whilst steadfastly preaching the good news of Hitler’s innocence to a host of receptive far-right groups. In 1988, he sealed the door of the bunker when he appeared as defence witness for another Holocaust-denier, Ernst Zündel, in Toronto and stated (on oath):

‘I don’t think there was an overall Reich policy to kill the Jews. If there was, they would have been killed and there would not be now so many millions of survivors.’

In 1991, Irving was filmed in Canada, strutting his stuff before a flock of fellow bunker-dwellers:

‘Ridicule alone isn’t enough, you’ve got to be tasteless about it. You’ve got to say things like More women died on the back seat of Edward Kennedy’s car at Chappaquiddick than in the gas chambers at Auschwitz. (applause) Now you think that’s tasteless? What about this? I’m forming an association especially dedicated to all these liars, the ones who try to kid people that they were in these concentration camps, it’s called the Auschwitz Survivors, Survivors of the Holocaust and Other Liars, A-S-S-H-O-L-E-S.’ Can’t get more tasteless than that, but you’ve got to be tasteless because these people deserve our contempt.’ (wild applause)

Irving himself was first convicted for ‘defaming the (Auschwitz) dead’ by a German court. He was fined $6000 and barred from entering Germany in 1992. He immediately appealed, but compounded his offence by declaring:

‘There were no gas chambers at Auschwitz, I will not change my opinion.’ (His appeal was declined and he was fined an additional $12 000).

Later, in 1992, Irving was also barred from Australia, Canada and South Africa. This led to him being deported from Canada. In 1994, he was the star-turn at a rally organized by the leadership of the ‘American neo-Nazi’ movement and attended by the former, self-appointed leader of the ‘KKK,’ David Duke. In 2004, Irving was refused entry to New Zealand on the grounds of his 1992 German conviction and because (at various times) he’d been deported from (and/or refused entry to) Canada, Italy, the USA and South Africa. However, this didn’t stop Irving from staging yet another stunt in which he tried (unsuccessfully) to board a Quantas flight from LA to New Zealand.

On February 20th 2006, Irving appeared in Vienna’s largest courtroom charged with denying the Holocaust in two speeches delivered to far-right groups in Austria in 1989. Although he pleaded guilty, under Austrian law (at the request of the State Prosecutor, Michael Klackl) Irving’s trial was allowed to run its course. Klackl explained that Irving had declared the gas chambers at Auschwitz to be a ‘fairytale’ and death camp survivors to be ‘psychiatric cases.’ Judge Peter Liebtreu asked Irving if he still held these views. Irving now claimed that he’d ‘made a mistake in saying there were no gas chambers in Auschwitz.’ He was ‘not sure how many people had died in Auschwitz,’ but he still believed that ‘Hitler protected the Jews’ and ‘tried to put off the Final Solution.’

Irving’s Lawyer failed to convince the jury that his client was just a harmless old man with a 12 year old daughter and sick wife to support. He was found guilty and sentenced to 3 years imprisonment. Judge Liebtreu described him as ‘a racist, an anti-Semite and a liar.’ He referred to a previous trial in which Irving had maliciously sought to suppress, a book, ‘Denying the Holocaust,’ written by an Jewish / American academic, Deborah Lipstadt. In this, Irving was not only identified as a ‘Holocaust denier,’ but also as a ‘falsifier and bigot’ who ‘manipulated and distorted real documents.’ In 1998, Irving sued Lipstadt and her publishers, Penguin Books, for libel in the English High Court. Lipstadt and Penguin were represented by the noted English barrister, Anthony Julius, who produced Richard J. Evans (Professor of Modern History, Cambridge University) as an expert witness. Prof. Evans and his research assistants took 2 years going through Irving’s published works with a fine tooth-comb. They came up with a stack of distortions, and irrefutable evidence that Irving had also knowingly included material sourced from forged documents. Prof. Evans made the following statement to the court:

‘Not one of (Irving’s) books, speeches or articles, not one paragraph, not one sentence in any of them, can be taken on trust as an accurate representation of its historical subject. All of them are completely worthless as history, because Irving cannot be trusted anywhere, in any of them, to give a reliable account of what he talking or writing about… if we mean by historian someone who is concerned to discover the truth about the past, and to give as accurate a representation of it as possible, then Irving is not a historian.’

During the English trial, Irving represented himself, and (largely ignoring the evidence against him) concentrated on what he insisted was his ‘right to free speech.’ He claimed that for three decades he’d been the victim of an international, mostly Jewish, conspiracy. At one point in Irving’s closing speech (March 15th 2000) there occurred a surreal moment reminiscent of ‘Dr Strangelove.’ He seemed to address the Judge, Charles Gray, as ‘mein führer.’ Irving lost the case and his later attempts to appeal were denied. He was ordered to pay an estimated $6 millions costs. Finally exposed as a dangerous manipulator living in a paranoid delusion of his own absolute moral and intellectual authority, Irving filed for bankruptcy. Judge Gray had concluded that:

‘Irving has for his own ideological reasons persistently and deliberately misrepresented and manipulated historical evidence; that for the same reasons he has portrayed Hitler in a favourable light, principally in relation to his attitude towards and responsibility for the treatment of the Jews; that he is an active Holocaust denier; that he is an anti-Semitic and racist, and that he associates with right-wing extremists who promote neo-Nazism.’

Irving is currently detained in the Josefstadt Prison in central Vienna, where he is waiting for his latest pointless appeal to be heard. In a BBC Radio 4 interview (recorded in Josefstadt prison and broadcast on February 28th 2006) Irving sounded quite rational, but what he said was anything but. He calmly asserted that the world’s historians have all lied about the Holocaust because, if they told the truth, they too would be sent to prison. Interestingly, Irving described his prison cell as ‘paradise for a writer.’ He stated that he will spend his time finishing his memoirs, ‘Irving’s War.’ It’s not difficult to guess from whom he copied this latest career move, but how could Irving ever have come to identify with a megalomaniacal psychopath, Adolf Hitler? For that matter, how could he have overlooked the mountain of quantifiable evidence proving the Nazi regime’s systematic manipulation, cheating, dispossession and destruction of millions of innocent men, women and children? To anyone who has researched cultic groups, Irving’s own story is frighteningly familiar.

David John Cawdwell Irving was born in March 1938 in Hutton, near to Brentwood, Essex. He was one of twin boys with one older brother. By a cruel twist of fate, in the week of his birth the keel was laid for a brand new Royal Navy Cruiser, HMS Edinburgh. Irving’s father was a middle-aged, Royal Navy Lieutenant-Commander who had survived the (8000+ death) battle of Jutland during WW I, and who went on to serve aboard HMS Edinburgh during the early years of WW II. On April 30th 1942, the Cruiser was escorting a homeward-bound Russian convoy, QP-11, in the icy waters of the Barents Sea, when she was hit by two torpedoes from a German U-Boat. Two days later, a partly crippled HMS Edinburgh was attacked by German Destroyers off Bear Island and torpedoed again. This time, she was abandoned and later sunk by HMS Foresight. Although 58 crew members perished, Irving’s father was again amongst the survivors. Deeply traumatized by this experience, Lieutenant-Commander Irving abandoned his family, dying (two years after his wife, Beryl) in 1967.

David Irving was brought up by his mother, an illustrator. He attended St Anthony Brownes’s Grammar School, Brentwood, where he was considered to be well above average academically. He later attended the London School of Economics and Imperial College London, where, whilst studying physics, he wrote articles for the student journal, ‘Phoenix,’ and he edited the London University magazine, ‘Carnival Times.’ As a child, Irving had already exhibited the desire to attract attention by being provocative, but, in 1959, he wrote and published a supplement to ‘Carnival Times’ containing racist cartoons, a defence of apartheid and Nazism and an accusation that the British press was controlled by Jews. Not surprisingly, Irving (aged 21) found himself in the headlines. He was branded as a self-confessed fascist and fan of Hitler by ‘the Daily Mail.’ Deprived of money, he was obliged to quit University. He tried to take-up his deferred National Service. Rejected by the RAF as being medically unfit, Irving went to Germany, where, whilst learning to speak German, he worked as a labourer at the Thyssen steel works in the Ruhr. He soon married and moved to Spain to work on an airbase in a clerical capacity (eventually, Irving and his wife, Pilar, produced 4 daughters, one of whom died in 1999). During 1962, a series of 37 articles by Irving were accepted by a right wing German magazine. In 1963, these were used as the framework for his first book, ‘The Destruction of Dresden’ — a fully-illustrated account of the carpet bombing of Dresden during February 1945. The morality of the WW II allied bombing campaign was already the focus of a fierce debate in Britain, Germany and the USA. Throughout the 1960s, Irving’s book (in which he described the Dresden raids as ‘the worst single massacre in European history’) featured on best seller lists in numerous countries, and for a long time he was recognised as an authority on the subject. However, the first edition of ‘The Destruction of Dresden,’ in which Irving (aged 25) estimated the number of German deaths at between 100 000 and 250 000, and subsequent editions, in which he reduced his estimate to between 50 and 100 000 deaths, are discredited. It is now a matter of public record that Irving’s figures were bogus and that between 25 000 and 30 000 people actually died in the Dresden raids.

During the 1960s, Irving brought out: ‘The Mare’s Nest’ (1964) and ‘The Virus House’ —accounts of Nazi secret weapons projects; ‘The (translated) memoirs of Field Marshal Keitel’ (1965); ‘Accident, The Death of General Sikorski’ (1967) — in which Irving implied that the exiled WW II Polish leader had been murdered at the direction of Churchill and other Allied leaders; ‘The Destruction of Convoy PQ-17’ (1968) — in which he libelled Commander Jack Broome RN (in 1970, Irving was forced to pay Broome $80 000 damages and withdraw the book from circulation).

During the early 1970s, Irving was introduced to various surviving members of Hitler’s entourage via German far-right groups. He was immediately recognised as a kindred spirit and was given access to private diaries and documentation. Irving then published ‘The (translated) Memoirs of General Gehlen’ (1972) and ‘The Rise and Fall of the Luftwaffe’ (1973) — a biography of Air Marshall Milch. Although his books were particularly well-written, and packed with incidental information which appealed to the general public, Irving was shunned by professional historians.

In 1977, Irving (aged 39) suddenly brought out ‘Hitler’s War,’ a reality-inverting portrayal of the ‘führer’ as an innocent politician whose only crime had been the desire to increase the prosperity of the German people. At this time, Irving had not yet begun to deny the Holocaust. However, he did claim that Hitler had no knowledge of it. ‘Hitler’s War’ was quickly followed by ‘The Trail of the Fox’ — a revisionist biography of Rommel, in which Irving portrayed the Field Marshall as a loyal supporter of Hitler, framed and forced to kill himself by the architects of the plot to murder the führer. Irving condemned the members of the plot as ‘traitors, cowards and manipulators,’ and, thus, sought to justify the barbaric treatment they received at the hands of the Nazi regime (after torture and show-trial, they were skewered-alive on meat hooks). In 1978, Irving published ‘The War Path’— a reality-inverting account of the period immediately prior to WW II. All these books were commercially successful, but now, for obvious reasons, Irving was being openly criticised as a ‘Nazi apologist’ by the press and by mainstream academics. He didn’t care, he was living the high-life with a apartment in Mayfair, a Rolls-Royce and a string of attractive, young, female ‘research assistants.’

Following his divorce in 1981, Irving brought out ‘The War Between the Generals’ — in which he again attempted to distort history. This time he ditched his lofty style and descended into the gutter. He described savage disputes which he claimed to have taken place between the military leaders of various nations comprising the Allied High Command during WW II. Irving also dug-up lurid rumours concerning the private lives of various Allied Generals. He then published ‘Uprising’ an analysis of the 1956 Hungarian revolt, in which he made absurd claims that the Soviet regime was controlled by Jews and that the Hungarian people had actually risen up against these Jews not against the Soviets. Irving was now dismissed as a crank and both these books were commercial failures. When he published ‘Churchill’s War, Volume I’ (1987) — in which he portrayed Britain’s heroic wartime leader as a racist, coward, womanizer, alcoholic and puppet of ‘international Jewry,’ and a biography of Herman Göring (1989) — in which he attempted to convince us that the Reichmarshall was really a fun-loving guy who’d opposed the Nazi persecution of the Jews, the world had almost ceased taking notice of David Irving. Desperate to maintain his lifestyle, Irving staged his most-notorious self-publicity stunt (i.e. his failed libel suit against Lipstadt and Penguin) Currently, his readership comprises the adherents of far-right groups, upon whom he depends to peddle his latest (self-published) tomes. Prior to his bankruptcy, Irving was accused of stealing valuable historical documents and trying to sell them, and of refusing to refund advance payments for books which he had never produced.

Who knows what David Irving might have achieved with his life, had his daddy come home from the War?

Amway Apologists Cult Members In Our Midst by quixtarisacult

An understanding of the Narcisitic personality is in order to understand how Amway Apolgists work:

‘Narcissistic Personality Disorder’ (NPD) is a psychological term first used by Dr. Heinz Kohut in 1971. It was then recognised as the name for a form of pathological narcissism in the ‘Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders’ 1980. Narcissistic traits are common in, and normal to, human psychological development. When these traits become accentuated by a failure of the social environment and persist into adulthood, they can intensify to the level of a severe mental disorder. However, severe and inflexible NPD is thought to effect less than 1% of the general adult population. It occurs more frequently in men than women. In simple terms, NPD is total self-worship born of its sufferers’ unconscious belief that they are flawed in a way that makes them fundamentally unacceptable to others. In order to shield themselves from the intolerable rejection and isolation which they unconsciously believe would follow if others recognised their defective nature, NPD sufferers go to almost any lengths to control others’ view of, and behaviour towards, them. Sufferers often choose partners, and raise children, who exhibit ‘co-narcissism’, a co-dependent personality disorder like co-alcoholism. Co-narcissists organize themselves around the needs of others (to whom they feel responsible), they accept blame easily, are eager to please, defer to others’ opinions and fear being seen as selfish if they act assertively.

NPD was observed, and apparently well-understood, in ancient times. Self-evidently, the broader term, ‘narcissism’, comes from the allegorical myth of Narcissus, the beautiful Greek youth who falls in love with his own reflection. The historical evidence proves that many despots undoubtedly suffered from NPD. to illustrate the nine recognised diagnostic criteria (five of which are required for a diagnosis):

has a grandiose sense of self-importance

is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, ideal love, etc.

believes that he/she is special and unique and can only be understood by other special people.

requires excessive admiration.

strong sense of self-entitlement.

takes advantage of others to achieve his/her own ends.

lacks empathy.

is often envious or believes that others are envious of him/her.
arrogant disposition.

NOW I MUST ASK THE WORLD A QUESTION? Don't all Amway Cult Apologists act nearly as described above?

The MOUNTAIN of evidence has become a torrent of foot soldiers on the march of truth that cults absolutely hate and absolutely cannot withstand. Go forth dudes, new dudes, old dudes, faithful dudes! Fight the good fight against Amway Tierney!

I really appreciate Amway Tierney when it comes out of it's hole. Gives everyone a chance to bounce truth off of cult lies, Satanist cult followers of something other than the true Way! I fear that people have actually been hypnotized by the SPOTLIGHT! Whack-a-apologist hammers available here at QCI.

I know there is one IBO that went to a spotlight and hasn't quite been right in the head ever since, but I heard they were beaming stupid and the tool house kid got hit! This fellow is half in a trance and half sees his way out of the trance. He is attracted to Cult Intervention to receive schooling.

Cult apologists always seem to take a proper beating on Quixtar Cult Intervention. Keep coming back! The medicine seems to be working.

Praises have been pouring in and I hope to get around to following up and seeing if people are still under the cult powers; some fall back into a dreamy blame themselves solitude. Cult endgame theory. I love it when someone comes clean and falls down on their knees and admits the truth, makes a statement of help to others. quixtarisacult@gmail.com

You might be a featured guest poster here yourself! (shesh, keep this on the low low) A great chance to say something that might help them fight off The effects of the pernicious The Business Cult. Have a heart, the holidays will be coming up soon.

I wish the best for all my readers. Some do not appreciate it, because they sometimes sound like the very cult apologists that writers like David Brear exposes in his powerful writings.

They act like complete scoundrels, but are just the puke puny pundits of deceit that are looking in the narcistic mirror and continuing down the road of blithering satanist cult perdition. The Hitler/Amwayesque depraved go down fighting type of apologist cult running idiotic grandiose pundits of deceit that all of these CULT people are!

Quixtar Cult Intervention is an Ocean of wisdom in a sea of deceptive quix-sand of The Pernicious The Business Cult which is on a historical journey with the other two great worldly cults:

Amway, Scientology, and the Unification Church

Let us never take our eyes off of what Amway is and how it rolls down it's road to world domination and is the Mother of all Deception!

This should be the worlds largest scandal, not the minor current affair they call the fiscal meltdown.

David Brear spoke the same truth to me in a recent conversation, and I must admit that the truth will always out. The truth is something that the apologists have a hard time countering, and for which they have no real answers. There are any number of apologists in the world, for many different causes, but where they cross over into pure cultism is when they venture into the big leagues. I want to thank David Brear for providing the above definition of Narcissistic Mental Disorders Do not be dismayed by these slick talking suits of major deception. Ward them off like you would a vampire bat!

Thanks for giving QCI a look see. Keep coming back for the daily whipping post for Amway apologist singular. I should have a special feature on Quixtar Cult Intervention called the whipping post a place where Amway Apologists can be taken to school by the big boys of Amway Criticism!

Go Dudes!
