I'd love to have someone just try to make the case that any of our military deployments over the last 70 years or so had anything to do with "protecting my freedom" or whatever rubbish phrase they wish to use. Same goes for our out of control alphabet agencies. Go on. I'm waiting...
I get a certain perverse pleasure out of making American jingoists explain exactly how making war on Iraq or Syria, countries which never harmed us in any way, is necessary so we can get the freedom.
Enough to say - they can't. But the cognitive dissonance on display is truly a sight to behold.
Love the close to this article. The greatest freedom of all is freedom from fear, which no one but you can offer or receive for yourself. The time is always Now. The answer is always Love. World 5.0
This toxic culture of murderous demand is far from ever being free. Even in the US--if we're born here--we already owe the government over $70K, or more, because of the Monopoly money debt. Also a big joke because money itself is a construct based on a false faith that it actually has value beyond the ability to pay rent, buy food, and fund Bill Gates, or Tim Cook, or Jeff Bezos, or Charles Koch, or Rupert Murdock, or even, all of the above at once, or, etc, etc. We've never been free except in the dreams in our heads.

Brilliant article once again. Caitlin Johnstone is fast becoming one of my favorite political writers. What concerns me additionally is that the American people are being systematically poisoned - and not just with the gmo and pesticided food they shove on us. The water we drink and bathe in has sodium fluoride added to it. We are more fluoridated than all other countries combined. And of course we're told it's good for us, for our teeth. Even dentists believe this lie! You know who else fluoridated their water? The Nazis, but only in their death camps. Apparently one of its many toxic side effects is to create apathy. Another is the lowering of IQ. I feel like we are the lost boys, believing in America as Pleasure Island while being turned into donkeys - Pinocchio as metaphor!

Um...
My sentiments for over 55 years. Peace

Love is not enough, never has been unfortunately.
We've never had leaders leading from Love. And if the only options are fear or love, which I maintain, which do you choose?

How did the donkeys escape? They burroed.
Beautiful
Yep, that pins it.
