Surviving Capitalism (Not) : The Mali Election Scam: Legitimizing France’s “Total Re-conquest”

We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

This subversive weapon was actually perfected in the Empire's home base--the US. The method consists of the control of information through control of media, elections managed by their operatives, and candidates approved and funded by their directors.
