I posted this in another thread but I'll repeat it here because it's prescient. Leonard Cohen: The Future (1992) Give me back my broken night, my mirrored room, my secret life It's lonely here, there's no one left to torture Give me absolute control over every living soul And lie beside me, baby, that's an order! Give me crack and anal sex, take the only tree that's left And stuff it up the hole in your culture Give me back the Berlin wall, give me Stalin and St. Paul I've seen the future, brother, it is murder Things are going to slide in all directions Won't be nothing, nothing you can measure anymore The blizzard, the blizzard of the world has crossed the threshold And it's overturned the order of the soul When they said repent, I wonder what they meant When they said repent, I wonder what they meant When they said repent, I wonder what they meant You don't know me from the wind, you never will, you never did I'm the little Jew who wrote the Bible I've seen the nations rise and fall. I've heard their stories, heard them all But love's the only engine of survival Your servant here, he has been told to say it clear, to say it cold It's over, it ain't going any further And now the wheels of heaven stop. You feel the devil's riding crop Get ready for the future, it is murder Things are going to slide in all directions, won't be nothing, Nothing you can measure anymore The blizzard, the blizzard of the world has crossed the threshold And it's overturned the order of the soul There'll be the breaking of the ancient Western code Your private life will suddenly explode There'll be phantoms, there'll be fires on the road, and the white man dancing You'll see your woman hanging upside down, her features covered by her fallen gown And all the lousy little poets coming round, trying to sound like Charlie Manson Yeah, the white man dancing Give me back the Berlin wall, give me Stalin and St. Paul Give me Christ, or give me Hiroshima Destroy another fetus now, we don't like children anyhow I've seen the future, baby, it is murder Things are going to slide in all directions Won't be nothing, nothing you can measure anymore The blizzard, the blizzard of the world has crossed the threshold And it's overturned the order of the soul When they said repent, I wonder what they meant When they said repent, I wonder what they meant When they said repent, I wonder what they meant
From Orson Wells to this 1968 series. 'The Prisoner' they have been telling us their plans for a long time.
I loved that series. The theme was typical of a certain trend in British music towards disjointedness or something. They shied away from clear melodies. McGoohan (slaughtered spelling) was great in it, even in episodes I didn't quite understand.
As each day passes the truth of some frightening conspiracies are being revealed. If some particular person can't shift his notions and see the global power structure in some realistic form, that person is not hearing or seeing anything. I would describe the desired world order of the elite as a kind of corporate fascism, with this difference. Historically, fascism has been based on the idea of a superior races. The new paradigm is not of race versus race, but of fantastically wealthy versus the rest of us. Those wealthy have grown psychopathic and want to kill a lot of people. My overall grasp of the battle we are in evolves over time, from which it follows that there is always more to discern and that no one, least of all myself, has final or inspired knowledge. I want to speak specifically about two ways in which we are psychologically manipulated. One. We keep looking for heroes and saviors to fight for us while we watch from the sidelines. If the globalists can keep us thinking this way they can pick our leaders for us and they will control our narratives. Queen Elizabeth perfected that strategy and was able to control the many people who resisted her rule. She chose the leaders of her own opposition, as have many tyrants since. Two. I had fallen prey to another manipulation until very recently. It is this. We are given false choices (Republican, Democrat, conservative, liberal, capitalist socialist, etc.) when it's evident that the Republicans are nearly as corrupt as the Democrats and any side we choose is usually under the auspices of one of those chosen leaders spoken of earlier. It is for this reason that I suspect some, many or all of the publicly recognized leaders of the patriot movement. So what are some ways to counter the strategies of the misanthropic power elite? 1) We can stop following the famous and find lower level leaders among ourselves. 2) We can stop watching the show as if it were a football game and get involved in the fight in whatever ways we can puzzle out. Those two directives imply, as corollary, that we become truly adult and become willing to resign ourselves to the burden of independence. In a better world, freedom would be a joy and not a weight but we are not in that better world. In our world embracing freedom is frightening but it is a duty. The real battle is between good and evil, as simplistic and banal as that sounds.
I don't know that it's true that fascism has been characterized by a superior race. I think it's just that the most notable implementation of fascism that we have experienced included racism as a major component. There are many elements of fascism in the US government right now, with the government and a large portion of our major industries, as well as the media, the educational establishment, and the scientific establishment, working together to bring about a political goal, while a large portion of those who are left on the outside are convinced that they have to look to those on the inside for leadership. The effect is that a large portion of those on the outside are fighting against themselves without being intellectually or politically aware enough to realize it.
The more I learn and study the less I seem to know. Seems man is never satisfied, and everybody wants to rule the world. The only real sure thing is there is always another war on the horizon to kill each other, since time began and long as we inhabit this earth always will be.
From here on out I'm going to speak my mind, regardless of any real or imagined threat for doing so. The globalists want to kill most of us, as their solution to a largely false global warming crisis. The scamdemics are a huge power play towards those ends. Those of us left will be expected to be braindead and obedient. A random quote: As economic policies have been tailored to the interests of a handful of powerful mega-corporations, any sense of our collective or national interest is being lost. A small elite (They fashion themselves as an elite. I don't.) was allowed to accrue immense wealth and power, while laying waste to our own former wealth and power and also laying waste to our society's workforce, industrial capacity, public services and vital infrastructures, leaving our country poorer, weaker and dependent on hostile foreign nations for the supply of everything we need. The solutions to the problems the globalists have caused are not complex. Reestablish our borders and our re-identity ourselves as free Americans. Rebuild our factories and make or grow most of what we need ourselves and in doing so, drastically reduce our unemployment and poverty. Disintegrate the large monopolies and return to a competitive capitalism with care for those who it might leave behind. When a company or corporation becomes large enough to dictate how we should live and tries to do so, it should be destroyed. Stop our military aggressiveness around the world while hypocritically insisting that every nation must be exactly like us. Recommit to the principals of The Declaration Of Independence and The Constitution Of The United States. Rebuild our military into a force for good in the world while abandoning our bully ways of the past. Hang a few hundreds or thousands of the worst of the malefactors, central bankers first. In general, return to a moral foundation which respects all persons of whatever country or race as deserving of life, liberty and prosperity. I've missed many important things in this list. Other, better thinkers than I will fill in the gaps. Sorry for being preachy. I'm getting old and clearheaded. and I'm a latecomer to some things. I'm doing the free speech part because, unless you practice that, you will lose your capacity for free thought. Free thought, apart from ideology, is absolutely necessary for dealing with the unknown challenges of the future. A fixed ideology will always fail in that regard. We follow those ideologies because personal freedom is a difficult thing to achieve and we'd rather our ideas come from 'authority'.
The rich essentially control the global economy, especially through multinational financial corporations, and with that they control governments as well. The catch is that much of their wealth essentially consists of numbers in hard drives whose value will vaporize as the effects of environmental collapse and limits to growth set it. When that happens, we will see something similar to what Hobbes imagines:
I suppose it's our historic hubris that the term 'American' refers to the a citizen of The United States Of America when, technically, it should describe any inhabitant of North or South America, but what's the alternative; United Stater? That's awkward. That's an aside to this post. I sat down this morning and, off the top of my head, made a list of the harms that are being done to us by the globalists and those currently in charge of the federal government. I stopped after filling a page and combined some separate items into one. There is still some overlap between some items but I think each remaining item deserves its own category. The list is not by order of importance but as they occurred to me. 1) Falsifying election results by various and sundry methods to place radical Democrats or Rinos in office. 2) Unlawful intimidation, surveillance and detention of political opponents. 3) Controlling and using mainstream news outlets for propagandizing the public. 4) Controlling and using so-called 'private' social media companies for the same, along with censoring alternative facts or opinion. 5) Moving towards ending Second Amendment rights and confiscating privately owned firearms. 6) Denying or ignoring scientific information produced by reputable and qualified researchers. 7) Purposely reducing energy supplied from domestic sources. 8) Purposely reducing food supplied from domestic sources. 9) Exporting huge amounts of weapons and money to fuel foreign wars conducted by proxy. 10) Promoting false or unproven theories of global warming as established facts. 11) Attacking systems of transportation and production by propaganda and carbon taxation. 12) Promotion of world bodies, world government and the end of the sovereign nation state. 13) Promotion of racism towards caucasions, sexism towards men, and chauvinism towards heterosexuals. 14) General disrespect of The Constitution as the law of the land. 15) Massive importation of illegal drugs by federal agencies along with informal collusion with foreign cartels to accomplish the same. 16) Exporting manufacturing to hostile countries and refusing to implement tariffs to protect domestic manufacturing. 17) Supplying major holding companies and global banks with unlimited funds to buy up domestic farmland, manufacturing and medical corporations. 18) Forgiveness of debt for those who can afford to pay it and shifting that burden to the poor and lower middle class. 19) Incremental suppression of nutritional supplements with possible criminalization to follow. 20) Releasing dangerous bioweapons on the public under the guise of vaccines. 21) Promotion of homosexuality and transsexuality to prepubescent children. I'll quit there. Good people have a lot of work to do.
What Is The New World Order? You might call it The Great Reset, the New World Order, the Globalist Conspiracy or any of a dozen other titles. It is, in fact, the main conspiracy in what, collectively, was formally called conspiracy theory. I say 'formally' because everyday events are proving that the 'theory' in 'conspiracy theory' is rapidly becoming conspiracy fact. After years of observing this trend and listening to discussions and analyses of it, I can say that I was never a diehard believer. My thoughts were more along the lines of 'If even some of these things are true, we are heading into a hazardous future. I better pay attention." So what might be humanity's future if the globalists succeed? I list some, though not all, of the implications. These are well documented elsewhere in the very words of the globalists and I will not reproduce that documentation here. 1) Roughly, humanity will be divided into three classes. At the top will be the very few wealthy corporate rulers, then a somewhat larger 'middle class' of technocratically trained servants of the elite and finally, the majority of enslaved people who labor for the elite. 2) The new middle class will be the engineers, scientists, propagandists, programmers, academics and the like who have whatever education and skill is needed it to keep the elite in power. 3) The underclass may well be genetically modified and/or born and reared in laboratory environments. At the least they will be implanted with computer chips that track their locations, monitor their behavior and control their emotions. They will live mainly in dormitory-style housing. They will be part of a global population of less than one billion people. The 'missing' of the former population of 8 billion will have died of starvation, freezing, various other privations or outright execution. 4) Red meat will be unavailable except to the elite. The diet of the underclass will consist of highly processed plant material and/or lab-grown protein, possibly laced with drugs to make the populace more obedient and submissive. Marriage, faithfulness and heterosexuality will be discouraged or even punished. Support for transhumanism, homosexuality, trans-sexualism, group sex and pornography will blanket the masses from centrally funded media. Christianity and other God-believing religions will be abolished, at least as far as public profession and practice. Many of the elite will practice satanism, with a growing emphasis on ritual child sacrifice. 5) Money will be entirely digital and there will be no possibility of making any purchase that is not traced and tracked. A person will have no ability to buy products that the elite consider harmful or subversive. Micromanagement of the individual will extend to such things as preventing them from buying sweets or high quality protein or similar constraints. 6) There will be no sovereign nation states. There will ne no elections, no political parties and no rule of law. Political activity of any sort will be branded as terrorism, as will any questioning of authority. Law will be superseded by regulations and edicts from on high. The elite will regard the mass of humanity, excepting themselves, as cattle, to be kept alive only as long as they are useful. 7) The elimination of African races will be a long term project. (The full title of Charles Darwin's major work, worshipped by Karl Marx and Frederic Engels, was On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life.) 8) The elite will sometimes cooperate among themselves and sometimes compete with each other, without regard to any political theory. Their goal is power and pleasure for themselves and not much else will matter to them. The worst practical elements of Nazism and Communism will be applied to governance of the planet, again without regard to any specific political theory. Life extending technologies will be reserved for the elite alone with perhaps the occasional exceptions being made for individuals of their servile middle class who please them. There is more but the above is a broad sketch of the future if we surrender to the triumph of the sociopath.
Count me as one of those who want to believe this will evetually be fixed.....I however, like Doug, have similar beliefs that were on the road to the NWO.
