The United States of America is actively facilitating genocide, as I type this. The United Kingdom, European Union, Canada, Australia and other assorted co-genocidists are scurrying around trying to ensure the smooth implementation of this mass slaughter and deliberate starvation. If we were not living in a dystopian, Orwellian society, all of the governments participating in this monstrous crime would been brought down by now, and every respectable media outlet would be reporting on sanctions against Israel and indictments at the International Criminal Court against Biden, Blinken, Sunak, Scholtz, Macron, Trudeau, Albanese and their accomplices for crimes against humanity. But none of that has happened, so it is fair and reasonable to conclude that we are living in a dystopian hell-hole in which most people have been programmed to believe that committing genocide and failing to stop genocide are normal and fine.

Get to know with critical thinkers like Caitlin how insidious western propaganda is.

Vladimir Putin said to Tucker Carlson that he couldn't speak about who sabotaged the Nord-stream pipe line because "the US owns the world media".

Yup. I can't believe how much worse things have gotten over the past few decades. It's not normal and we could and should do much better.

I've concluded that in the best traditions of brainwashed Catholicism, there must be a patron saint of all the word-salad bullshitters who drive the mainstream narratives in what passes for the centrality of Western “culture”. Santo Sanificare, Saint Sanitize, watches over it all, ensuring that none of the outliers sings a dissonant note that might be construed as too "jazzy", and is quickly pitch-corrected back into the allowed harmonies of the major chord specified in the public-private partnership (aka Fascist) hymnal.

Santo Sanificare, prega per noi. Amen.

"In reality, we are living in a profoundly sick dystopia that is built on a foundation of human corpses and fueled by an endless river of human blood. Our news media are propaganda services, our entertainment is brainwashing, and our mainstream culture is social engineering, all built to keep us turning the gears of a vast globe-dominating empire"... That's exactly how I feel! Is anyone out there feeling the same? How do you cope with it? I mean how do you rationalize it to stand up in the morning and go to work or to tell your children everything is OK and their future is radiant?

We are taught from childhood that the US is the best country in the world. Think of being raised on extremist nationalism from youth. Think of your education where you are constantly told the United States is altruistic. Then imagine being told to constantly compete against everyone instead of cooperation for the greater good. After that, picture the idea of dropping endless bombs on people is an effective means for liberating people...That's the United States in a nutshell, if a country could be a narcissist, the United States would be it.

Oh, yes. I just saw Rand Paul tell Tucker Carlson that he wants a "legislative" exchange with Russia, so that a young Russian legislator or two or three can visit the US and see how much better it is than Russia. He said this to Carlson - who has just posted that Moscow is more beautiful than any city he has seen in the US. But Rand Paul is convinced that a Russian who sees our entertainment and way of life, etc., will be eager to be the next Gorbachev. Rand Paul LOVED Gorbachev. Even Rand Paul is enamored of the US dystopia and believes other countries would be, too. WTF.

It’s so insidious. I try to get others to see it and they think I’m an angry conspiracy theorist

“ all built to keep us turning the gears of a vast globe-dominating empire”

Actually it is not an empire, as empires are made by the union of countries under one emperor, and I don’t see any emperors or empress here, calling it ”empire”, is like trying to put lipstick on a baboon or a pig and calling it a woman.

I would call it wannabe globe-dominating metastasis .

You are not the only one to have had this realization.

I see in the news the Israelis have deliberately targeted a hospital: the only operational hospital in Gaza. What a charming, delightful bunch of people the Israelis are. The US and the UK, plus Australia STILL unequivocally support Israel: absolutely staggering.

The EU which refuses to sanction Israel and is in fact sending weapons to kill gazan civilians despite the ICJ judgement about genocide….today declares new saction. No…not against Israel but against Russia.

Bear in mind we all know that the NATO-backed Ukrainian nazi nationalists in Ukraine have since 2014 been engaged in….genocide against the Russians ethnic groups in eastern Ukraine.

So the message from the EU and NATO is: genocide is good. And sanctions only on those who resist our genocidal actions.

I love how descriptive your words are, they capture what I know and see but don't have the skill to give to people around me. Reading them gives me awe in your verbal skill it also gives me solidarity in a world where so few understand what's going on and the scale of it. When I read your words I see that I'm not alone.

A key step would be to impose sensible restrictions on Washington's politicians, including term limits, mandatory retirement age, prohibition of dual citizenship, and forcing AIPAC and its propaganda arm, ADL, to register as foreign agents on behalf of Israel. Lacking that, nothing will change. In fact, with AIPAC and geriatric sociopaths in permanent control, it will just get worse.

Conditioning in the west is an ambient institutional phenomenon. Every avenue where perception management is possible, it has been captured and molded by this insidious leviathan.

Aside from that Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?
