#31 You fail to see the USA, Canada and all other NATO member are being cannibalized economically and culturally as slave states to wars the empire cannot afford and is "asset stripping" them for corporate wars for corporate. profits.

#32 You are ignoring the atrocious economic indicators that show collapse of the West is on the horizon.

#33 Colonization of the mind and soul is a degenerative condition which ends with the sociocide we are now living through.

How do we SAFELY reverse the course which these corrupt centralized entities have us on?

We build new systems that make the old ones obsolete- ones 100% controlled and built by the people - then plug them into the system with decentralized leadership.

We feel like we are down a rabbit hole and found a fix for all of the corruption and most of our problems, but can’t scream loud enough for others to hear us. We need to build better Swarming systems, and plug them into our current broken systems using leaders who decentralize their own positions. We implore you to read this and understand the importance https://joshketry.substack.com/p/human-swarm-intelligence-the-most?r=7oa9d&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Yes, Feral, I thought that as well, as did many others, judging by the responses today.

As a suggestion to those with family contacts, or a list of friends, or business associates that are approachable, try doing what I have just done and copy out the list and distribute it widely.

30 is enough to start with and it would be one way of making those that do not think on this subject very often, a little more aware of the realities of past historical events.

It is worth expanding on.

Excellent approach, Caitlin.

In both Canada and the USA they are being used for partisan politics as immigrants vote for the incumbent party that brought them here. Biden and Trudeau are counting on them to win elections for them.

Landing in the USA the immigrants get a 2200. dollar a month allowance which is more than US and Canadian pensioners get.

In stupid Canada we admitted over a million immigrants last year and we cannot provide housing for them. Prices and interest rates are going through the roof which is just what happened in the nineties, thousands of Canadians are losing their homes as a result.

But immigrants can't vote--can they? Or is this a long haul political plan?

In Canada it takes 5 years to vote, with full citizenship.

The question is "how did these people get here". I read an article, which I think may have been a joke, that suggested the CIA financed their transportation to South America and then the recruitment of the smugglers to move them north.

Now, is this seriously possible? Or am I going down a rabbit hole that Snowden warned us about.

Come on! Most of our government has secret documents on their private email servers. It's no big deal--UNLESS you don't agree with their beliefs.

Expand full comment

I guess you missed the meaning

Expand full comment

My meaning with this comment is that very very few people in our society care about Julian Assange. If a small puppy falls down a well, or a kitten gets stuck up in a tree--people are heart broken and will donate to rescue these "trapped" animals. They can see the animals are suffering. They are innocent animals and deserve our sympathy. OK? Ukraine, also, is portrayed as an innocent victim.

But Julian Assange? He's a grown man. One grown man. He's not even an American citizen. I think at least 10 substack journalists and other journalists have gotten outraged by his plight. It's similar to getting outraged by all the censorship going on right now.

I bet you right now if I went out on the street and asked people "Have you ever heard of Julian Assange?" 90% would say NO Who is he? When I tell them he exposed war crimes, they will say, "What war crimes?"

There must be some statements in the list saying that any war we start or enhance is definitely NOT a crime, because we wouldn't be participating in a war unless it was to preserve democracy, support women's rights (Afghanistan), or depose nasty dictator.

Julian Assange basically gave his life to preserve transparency and expose malfeasance--and nobody gives a shit. It's like beating a dead horse. I once told my mother I was sorry so many innocent men were in jail. (In the 1960's we weren't aware of female crime) My mother replied, "There ARE no innocent men in jail. If they are in jail, why then they must have done something and deserve to be there!"

Julian Assange, Chelsea Manning--two people unfairly imprisoned for exposing things the government doesn't want you to know. Oh we are so far beyond this now. I think people have been killed for saying things the government doesn't like. Doctors will lose their license if they oppose government Covid policy.

A major reason that Hilary Clinton lost to Trump (aside from more voter fraud) is because the FBI revealed how she stored secret private government documents on her own email server. ROASTED. But what about Obama? It turns out he did the same thing. Our presidents are total idiots when it comes to being able to access sensitive documents. They are not tech savvy--except when it comes to calling up Elon Musk or Zuckerberg and asking them to impose censorship on sensitive material. Hunter Biden also was lax about storing governemt documents. And Trump was no better. Lots of government documents in Mara Lago. He's even worse than Julian Assange in how many documents he acquired.

Yeah, I definitely missed the meaning. I just don't believe people care very much about Assange. They're way too busy fighting off Covid infection, dealing with inflation, trying not to lose their jobs, avoiding nuclear war. ALTHOUGH, I do have a friend who is absolutely outraged that DeSatntis signed a resolution to make it a crime to teach sex education supporting gender ID surgeries and also to oppose teaching critical race theory. He's disrespecting the first amendment! Censorship! Unfair! (I'll have to ask her how she feels about Assange.) Seriously, most everything that outrages us is because it challenges some deep seated moral value that we probably all agree with. Just that we don't agree on the facts. For example, I had a friend deeply frightened of Covid, convinced that saying 5000 people died of Covid was a sick joke, felt only vaccines would save us, etc. We pretty much were set to kill each other. I set out to prove we were on the same side. DEATH! We can both agree that it's very very important to avoid death and we both want to do it as number one priority. (ME: Avoid vaccine deaths by skipping vaccine mandates. HIM: Avoid Covid deaths by imposing them) 5000 DEATHS We can both feel outrage by this number! ME: 5000 people just DIED from vaccine injury--and MSM ignores this and CDC says vaccines are safe and this was just a coincidence HIM: 5000 Covid deaths! Neil Ferguson predicted 2 million and over half a million Americans died the first year of Covid. AWFUL! I think there were 3 or 4 other points of deep agreement. He agreed very reluctantly that we were thinking the same. Had to, because we were both trembling in fear and hugging each other to provide some meager solice. Or at least trying to hug over zoom--so disappointing for body contact.

31. You think that the irrational domestic policies of federal agencies like CDC, FDA, EPA etc. have no connection to foreign-policy empire-simp propaganda. When, in fact, the lies, censorship and crushing of free speech promoted by these federal criminal agencies are all integral parts of the brain softening necessary to sell a foreign policy of silent acquiescence to psychological enslavement to the perpetual violence and unlimited mendacity of war.

Expand full comment

For me silent acquiescence to war was MUCH easier than silent acquiescence to vaccines. After all war is always "over there"--never here. So I can dismiss it--just as most citizens are dismissing vaccine injury. But maybe not so much any more. Propaganda says unvaccinated people are a tiny minority that must be punished for their failure to carry out their civic duties. For sure my brain will be softened if I ever agree to be vaccinated--with anything.

Got to rephrase "concerned about mask and vax mandates" EVERYBODY is concerned about mask and vax mandates. You need two statements: You think we need more mask mandates, lock downs, and vax mandates to protect us from Covid (no other health condition matters). AND You think masking is worthless, lock downs are worthless and destroy the economy, and vax mandates are tyrannical ways of ensuring population control.

Oooh the "free press." Reminds me of one of my favorite operas, "The Consul," which features Anna Sorel the wife of John Sorel a freedom fighter in some nameless Eastern European country. Every dissident or person fleeing oppression is desperate to get to America and they apply for a visa claiming their right because of illness, mistreatment, urgent business, exceptional talent, etc. But the secretary never lets anyone see the American consul. Somehow they never can manage to fill out the forms correctly or manage to make themselves understood if they don't speak English. Anna is desperate to have her husband leave the country and save himself. He is desperate to sacrifice himself to avoid having her arrested. So desperate, in fact, that he surrenders himself as a martyr to the secret police who will arrest him, find him guilty, and kill him. But it's all good because now he knows that Anna is free to leave the country since they already have their martyr. (He doesn't know that the baby starved to death, and his mother died from unknown respiratory illness, and his wife is busy committing suicide so that he will be free to go.) The police as they arrest him ask him if he is coming with them of his own free will. (So they can't be accused of murdering him.) "Oh yes. I'm coming with you of my own "free will," he replies. Nobody mandated or coerced vaccines. We took them of our own "free will."

That's a real point of issue. I see the total chaos that occurs in US wars. Lots of civilians killed or even targeted. President Putin's methods are extremely different and very precise. He does not just do random destruction like every single US war campaigns have done. The interview that Tucker did with that Colonel says it all and really is a must view for the whole world to see.
