• FBI is Recklessly Misusing Trump-Era Espionage Policy to Create “Climate of Fear” Among Scientists—Terrorizing Families and Ruthlessly Destroying Careers by Jeremy Kuzmarov from CovertAction Magazine.

The Justice Department’s China Initiative Was Established by the Trump Administration to Crackdown on Chinese Economic and Scientific Espionage
 

However, its primary targets have been academics prosecuted for failing to properly disclose their connection to Chinese universities on grant forms and it has led to numerous miscarriages of justice 

• Live Talking Maxwell Verdict w/Whitney Webb 12/29/21 featuring Whitney Webb's interpretation of the Ghislaine Maxwell trial to date as revealed in this interview with Webb, who has done extensive research on the Maxwell case. This interview and discussion was directed by Graham Elwood using his channel on YouTube (33:40). (Note: This is not a 1:08:03 interview because Elwood has technical difficulties with YouTube and other problems with hooking up to Webb. The interview starts at about 10:00 and lasts until about 43:40, which equals about 33:40 total for the interview with Whitney Webb.) My reaction: As you probably know, Maxwell was found guilty of five of six counts during her recent trial. But that isn't justice served because the two main criticisms of the trial are provided by Webb which indicates that the trial made a concerted effort to prevent any prominent names associated with Epstein's trafficking of minors for sexual blackmail purposes would be kept out of the trial, and prevented any examination of Israeli spy involvement with this essentially blackmail operation. Elwood near the end cynically speculates about the sentencing of G. Maxwell put off until another day.

• A financial “blockbuster” year fuelled by death and disease by Nick Beams, an Australian Marxist writer, from World Socialist Web Site.
  

• Brian Williams’ RIDICULOUS Retirement Speech featuring Jimmy Dore commenting about the hilarious speech that Brian Williams gave on TV, with mostly humorous comments interjected in the conversation by comedian Kurt Metzger--using Dore's channel on YouTube (25:46). My reaction: Williams is representative of the shallow, morally-compromised people who work for media corporations, and the mouthpiece of corporations and the ruling capitalist class in general. He has been rewarded with a long career at NBC as a presenter of the "news" or, more realistically, ruling class propaganda.

• How Education International is Pushing Teachers’ Unions into the 4th Industrial Revolution by John Klyczek from Unlimited Hangout.
  

• 💥A Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Systemic Collapse and Pandemic Simulation by Fabio Vighi from The Philosophical Salon. This is a best post.
  

A year and a half after the arrival of Virus, some may have started wondering why the usually unscrupulous ruling elites decided to freeze the global profit-making machine [capitalism] in the face of a pathogen that targets almost exclusively the unproductive (over 80s). Why all the humanitarian zeal? Cui bono? Only those who are unfamiliar with the wondrous adventures of GloboCap can delude themselves into thinking that the system chose to shut down out of compassion. Let us be clear from the start: the big predators of oil, arms, and vaccines could not care less about humanity. [my insertion]

• 💥American Pravda: AIDS and the Revival of the Duesberg Hypothesis by Ron Unz from his website The Unz Report. My commentary follows: 

Unz, a writer who promotes old-fashioned capitalism, labeled by neoconservatives as paleoconservatism, argues that Kennedy's book The Real Anthony Fauci has reopened a controversy that raged in the 1990s set off by Prof. Luc Montagnier, the medical researcher who won a Nobel Prize for discovering the HIV virus in 1984. Unz writes: “Tragically for humanity, there are many, many untruths emanating from Fauci and his minions. RFK Jr. exposes the decades of lies.” Kennedy also included names like Kary Mullis, the renowned creator of the revolutionary PCR test, and Prof. Peter H. Duesberg. 

 

One of the major scientific heroes in Kennedy’s account is Prof. Peter H. Duesberg of Berkeley. During the 1970s and 1980s, Duesberg had been widely regarded as among the world’s foremost virologists, elected to the prestigious National Academy of Sciences at age 50, making him one of its youngest members in history.

 

Unz goes on to report in this article:

 

In 1996 he published Inventing the AIDS Virus, a massive 712 page volume setting forth his case, with the Foreword provided by Nobel Laureate Kary Mullis, the renowned inventor of PCR technology and himself another leading public critic of the HIV/AIDS hypothesis. Duesberg even underscored the confidence of his HIV skepticism by offering to be injected with HIV-tainted blood.

But rather than openly debate such a strong scientific opponent, Fauci and his allies blacklisted Duesberg from receiving any government funding, thereby wrecking his research career, while also vilifying him and pressuring others to do the same.

  

According to Unz, other attacks on Duesberg followed.

 

This article reports on the fakery behind the current ruling class's promotion of the Democratic Party and their "woke" policies which pretend to show how minorities like homosexuals and African-Americans have been discriminated against by old-fashioned conservatives, the former capitalist ruling class, which was replaced by neoconservatives (right-wing Jews or Zionists) like Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Dick Cheney, etc., who arose in the government during the Reagan administration and promoted the new ideology of neoliberalism. This ideology formed a basis for the new transnational capitalism which has morphed into the thoroughly corrupt ruling class in which the latter chose the Democratic Party as an instrument to further their agenda as we see today. 

 

However, this is a ruse to further confuse and divide Americans while the ruling capitalist class installs foreign military bases, engages in subversive activities to overthrow governments they don't like, and wages wars in order to construct their world Empire. Meanwhile, they continue to make half-hearted attempts to cope with the climate crisis which will increase in the near future.

• Ghislaine Maxwell Is Guilty by Dan Adler from Vanity Fair. My reaction: The fact that this was reported in Vanity Fair is significant. Only the rich ruling class read this magazine because VF report on matters that affect them. (Note: If you have limited time, Ben Swann also reports and comments on this from Sovren--03:11.)

The conventional wisdom is that the Fed’s recent emergency lending facilities to Wall Street were caused by the COVID-19 crisis. The above chart, which uses the New York Fed’s own Excel spreadsheet repo loan data, shows the conventional wisdom is dangerously wrong.

• Thought The Pandemic Was BAD?! This Is What's NEXT! feature Russell Brand, a British figure, at his channel on YouTube (08:03) interviewing Professor Dr. Brad Evans, of Bristol University.

This is a best post. My reaction: This is an important propaganda psy-op to confuse various "left" leaders of the Empire in an effort to smear real left critics on various issues--and it's working!

(Note: This post features Elias Amare, editor of Horn of Africa TV giving his views on the subject via Peoples Dispatch's channel on YouTube (14:06).) My reaction: The US/British/Zionist Empire and its recent historical record reveal that it won't hesitate using violence in the form of invading armies, terrorism, and especially propaganda to control and subdue a population for the geopolitical benefits of the transnational ruling classes of the capitalist Empire toward its goal of world domination.

• The Gordian Knot of Climate Finance featuring an address by Mia Motley, the Prime Minister of Barbados, before the recent COP26 meeting in Glasgow, Scotland, via a video from Facing Future's channel on YouTube (09:07).

• The Sustainable Growth End Game by Stewart Brennan from World United News. 

In citing the UN’s IPCC Report “Code Red for Human Driven Global Heating” [02], Prince Charles then talked about carbon capture and carbon taxes, which of course, we’ve all heard before, as those who will be taxed, will be the commoner and small business owners that are blamed for, what they call “Human Driven Global Heating” while the big corporations owned by the cartel will be blessed with carbon credits which will be tradable on their rigged stock market while they continue to drive the biosphere into global ecological destruction.

The pretentious solution Prince Charles leads up to, is of course, sustainable growth.

However, the sustainable economic growth system Prince Charles is pushing is not a solution to ending the global environmental destruction that they are strangely calling climate change, because the continuation of a devastating consumer growth market will continue to be the real problem as it always has been in reference to the destruction of our environment.

My reaction: I have been mostly collecting posts of cryptocurrencies, but I haven't made up my mind yet even after listening/reading to the post over the long weekend.

Recently Sovren has been running short video appearances by various individuals here, here, and here.

• The Geopolitics Surrounding Nord Stream 2 by Salman Rafi Sheikh from New Eastern Outlook. My commentary follows: 

The US/British/Zionist Empire engages, as always, in psychological projection accusing Russia of aggression when it is the other way around, that is, the Empire is engaging in aggressive actions by encircling Russia with military bases next to it border designed to provoke Russia in defense of its nation. No doubt this strategy is accompanied by lucrative rewards to European politicians to support the Empire's goal of making Europe dependent on American gas. 

 

The capitalist Empire always offers monetary rewards to bribe its way to power and domination when direct intimidating violence is out of the question. It will be up to ordinary European citizens to decide this contest.

 

It is my opinion that the aggressive policies of moving NATO troops up to the Russian border and promulgating militant anti-Russian propaganda are methods to sabotage efforts of Europeans to secure much cheaper gas from Russia. To the directors of the Empire, this is a crucial strategy to keep Russia and Europe apart. For them to cooperate in this economic effort would be a major defeat for the goal of global domination of the world by the capitalist Empire. The directors of the Empire are staking everything on the success of this strategy which is threatening the world with a global nuclear war conflagration. This is the reason why Russia has issued some "red lines" (see here, here, and here.)

• Who receives US military aid to Ukraine? featuring a commentary by Jeremy Kuzmarov of CovertAction Magazine from RT's channel on YouTube.

• What If U.S., NATO Talks Are Cover for More Aggression Towards Russia? by Finian Cunningham from Strategic Culture Foundation. 

Russia’s strategic patience has worn out. Years of relentless encroachment by the United States and NATO on Russia’s territory has reached the point where Moscow has peremptorily declared red lines that must be respected. In short, no more eastward expansion by the U.S.-led military bloc and, secondly, the removal of U.S. strike weapons from neighbouring states.

The latest phase in the long post-Cold War game has been the vicarious menacing with Ukraine. Moscow could be criticized for being too complacent about the bad faith and backsliding by NATO since the late-1990s in ripping up assurances to Russia over no eastward expansion. But the NATO-backed Kiev regime threatening Russian people in eastern Ukraine and Russia’s national security is the last straw. Better late than never.

• More than 150 Comparative Studies & Articles on Mask Harms & Ineffectiveness by Arjun Walia from The Pulse. 

A number of renowned doctors and scientists have been sharing evidence calling into question the measures that health authorities have taken to combat COVID. Whether it be catastrophic harms of lockdown measures, vaccine mandates or science that calls into question the safety and efficacy of COVID vaccines, both evidence and opinion have been shut down, censored and ridiculed.

Many experts in the field have been subjected to ridicule campaigns as well. The Great Barrington Declaration scientists are a recent example.

• 💥UNCENSORED: RFK Jr. Tells Shocking Truth About Anthony Fauci featuring an interview with RFK, Jr. conducted by Jimmy Dore from Dore's channel on Rumble (1:04:39). (Note: There is an abbreviated (censored or self-censored?) version (44:49) on YouTube.) This is a best post. My reaction: RFK, Jr. gives a condensed version of his book. This is an illustration (need I elaborate?) of how the ruling capitalist class and their rich conspirators' corrupt individuals and institutions to serve themselves with wealth and, especially, power to rule much of the world. Read all about it in my essay here and recently corroborated by a Columbia University historian.

• Samantha Power and the Cosmopolitan Crusaders by Christopher Mott from CovertAction Magazine.

Even though Barack Obama had explicitly campaigned against George W Bush’s foreign policy (as well as Hillary Clinton’s in the Democratic primary), he soon proved himself amenable to many of their ideas. Power was a key influencer, holding multiple positions in the Obama administration.

 

My reaction: This post, one of many, that demonstrates the fact that there is a Deep State or a ruling class that controls the government which has the effect of continuing policies regardless of which political party is in control of the government.

• The Weather Underground & Political Violence featuring on RT's channel on YouTube (28:39), Chris Hedges in an interview with Mark Rudd, author, and former leader of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS). (Note: SDS evolved into the Weather Underground, an organization that organized a violent guerrilla movement with the ultimate aim to take over the US government.) 💥My commentary follows:

 I cannot judge these people because, as is well-known, hindsight is 20/20, and especially nearly 50 years later. I think that many of the left organizers in SDS were reaching the height of frustration when organizing efforts did not seem to pay off in the face of widespread ignorance that infected the American people plagued by so many years of indoctrination and incessant propaganda. 

 

I think that if they had succeeded, we wouldn't be facing the twin threats of our demise that confront us today: nuclear war conflagration and the inevitable destabilization of the climate leading to the extinction of humans and most other species. If they were successful at causing the government to be in the hands of the people, they certainly would have restored peace in the world and we might have had a chance to solve the climate crisis. It was obvious at the time they were concerned with stopping the aggressive foreign policies that led to the Vietnam War and all the other wars in the future. 

 

Thus, they would have averted a nuclear war Armageddon, and we would have had a chance to avert the other threat--the climate crisis. Looking back nearly 50 years later by Hedges and Rudd at their unsuccessful attempt is hardly a criticism of them. They should be celebrated as heroes.

• 💥FDA Corruption Way Worse Than You Think featuring Jimmy Dore sarcastically discussing, with comic Kurt Metzger, recent appointment to head the FDA on Dore's channel on YouTube (28:00)--a best post. My commentary follows: 

This is a common practice in all industries and those government agencies that try to regulate corporations. It is another indication that banks and corporations have control of our government to serve their interests and not to serve the interests of the public. Their interest is control and the eventual control/domination over all of the world as I explained here.

 

The public, like Dore, is only now becoming aware of this longtime practice. It is an obsession by the public to trust the news reporting of corporate media and trusting government institutions to look after the best interests of the public that is the major problem. 

 

We must get rid of capitalist, self-serving control of the USA and the world dominance of their US/British/Zionist Empire that currently threatens the whole human species with a catastrophic nuclear war. This process applies to all social institutions. If you go along with this rewarding process as most educated people do, you will be assured a lucrative career, supportive family, a fancy home, etc. (Educated people can make it possible for the capitalist ruling class to enjoy profits.) This is the secret of their success, but it will lead to the extinction of humans and most other species.

 

In addition to their unconcern about other people, there is a concern about the growing signs of the destabilization of the climate. Therefore, de-population is on their agenda. 

• VIP | Assange: Journalism on Trial features Naomi Karavani interviewing Mohamed Elmaazi, a UK-based freelance journalist, about the details of the prosecution and especially the persecution by the Empire of journalist Julian Assange--from Redacted Tonight's channel on YouTube (28:02). My reaction: This is an excellent summary of the persecution of Assange. Unlike other career journalists, Assange exposed serious crimes by the Empire.

• Watch: Bill Gates Squirms When Asked About His Relationship With Jeffrey Epstein by Arjun Walia from The Pulse. My reaction: This article is about more than watching Gates squirm.

  Hi, Ron. Well it's happened. I have been terminated on Medium after over four years. It's forbidden to talk about the corruption of Big Pharma; at least on Medium. I've talked about all sorts of corruption and was suspended on Facebook for a while a few years ago. But this is a new low. I had already wanted to talk about blatant fascism tomorrow. Well this certainly is it. Is RFK Jr. going to get in big trouble about his wildly popular book? I fear for his safety. The book is hard to read as I get incensed after a few pages of reading and have to go to something else to settle down.
  
  People are dying because of this. Trump may have taken the blame but it goes way deeper than just a few administrations. Something I have a hard time explaining to folks that put names--like Presidents--to the system as a whole.

(Note: Here I'm breaking my rule for posting articles and interviews within one month.) My reaction: The ruling capitalist class manipulates Americans with false-flag events such as 9/11 and the current covid pandemic to instill fear in them. I've noticed over my lifetime our ruling class tries, and largely succeeds, to instill fear in Americans and manipulates them by spreading fear: the War on Drugs, the War on Terrorism, the longtime obsessive concern (since WWII) for Russians being the source of all evil, the current wave of obsessive concern about Covid-19 and its variants, and the current warmongering against China all driven by reports in major media corporations.

In researching Martyanov to learn about his background, I had great difficulty. The best source I found is nearly an hour post in late October (2021) by Bonnie Faulkner interviewing Martyanov. I have high regard for Faulkner. (I normally post articles only within a month of their occurrence.) I was contributing to the support of her weblog in recent years, but I grew impatient with the lack of posts by her, and I terminated this support.

I think Berletic is on to something. While the de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire is doing everything it can to thwart the rise of China and its influence, the directors of the Empire are also formulating methods to control the people of their Empire through the Great Reset. The directors are billionaires who are facing abrupt climate destabilization (the Great Reset is only one part of the strategy to deal with the latter real problem plus reaping rewards of profit) and the challenging rise of China, Russian, and Iran. But while they remain focused on the domination/control of the world, they are undermining all efforts for human survival. Take a look at several posts today.

First, and foremost, my attention was directed toward this post entitled "China forms new state-owned rare-earth giant through merger" from the Global Times, a major publication from China. This inspired me to look into the environmental hazards of rare earth mining, and I found many articles dealing with this subject, but a recent one was from Harvard entitled "Not So 'Green' Technology" which looks at all the problems with rare earth mining. This is never discussed in major media, but instead the latter consistently boasts about electric vehicles (that require rare earth minerals) as one solution to the climate crisis. 

 

Meanwhile, the ruling transnational capitalist class is doing everything it can to undermine China's economy and destabilize Russia, instead of collaborating with them to solve the dilemma posed by the environmental effects of rare earth mining. The ongoing efforts to curb Iran are a daily reminder. While these countries of the newly-formed Resistance in addition to China and Russia are trying to raise the living standards of their people, the Empire is going about sabotaging their efforts in order to carry out their Empire's mission to dominate the world. This is fully evident from other sources such as seen in this Berletic post, and from the ongoing reports of the Empire's major media corporations citing efforts of NATO to taunt the Russians and to exploit the fears of Europeans about a Russian invasion and the continuing efforts to antagonize China over the Taiwan issue. The contrast is dramatic, to say the least.

If the directors of the Empire were also interested in raising the living standards of the people of the world, they would join efforts with China and Russia to solve the environmental, population, and economic problems of the world. But, instead, they are focused on maintaining their control/dominance over the world. This was their objective from the beginning in 1940. The Great Reset is only one component of their strategy.

Just last week newly released emails showed Dr. Anthony Fauci and his boss at the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) wanted to conduct a “quick and devastating” take-down of renowned scientists and infectious disease experts who proposed a lockdown-free COVID control strategy. Ridicule was one of the strategies, using health regulatory agencies and mainstream media which are at the disposal of these powerful people.

The British Medical Journal recently criticized Facebook “fact-checkers” for their “incompetent” work and censoring of legit information pertaining to COVID vaccine clinical trials.

Renowned viral immunologists, epidemiologists, editors of prestigious medical journals and more have, during this pandemic, been labelled as “anti vaccine conspiracy theorists.”

• Could Washington Royalty Lead a Palace Coup? by Greg Klein from Vancouverzeitgeist, an online publication in Vancouver, British Columbia. 💥My commentary follows: 

In this piece Klein refers to the Kennedy crowd as "Washington Royalty", but he goes on to the critical subject:

 

While Ottawa waits for instructions, the question now burning through the American establishment must be: “How do we marginalize a Kennedy?”

Depending how long they survive, other dissenters undergo a transition of being ignored, ridiculed, slandered, censored, demonized, harassed, fired and criminalized. Or worse—although that might not happen in this case to avoid the martyrdom bestowed on his father and uncle. 

 

Klein immediately follows this rather oblique reference to the assassinations of the Kennedys with a reference to the number (17) of African leaders recently assassinated while in office. Obviously, the Deep State has no moral qualms about assassinating this Kennedy, but they only worry about how this will affect us. Klein ends his analysis with a critical remark about Robert Kennedy Jr. not being concerned about the cultural distractions that the Deep State has developed to further divide and distract Americans south of their border--the "woke" and Critical Race Theory culture.

 

I think that this post serves to dodge the more important question: if the Deep State, consisting mostly of financiers, billionaire tycoons, and their self-serving supporters, don't figure out how to silence or marginalize Kennedy and the challenges posed by dissenters, what will happen? This is the crucial question. Kennedy with his book has thrown down the challenge to their rule. The fake cultures that Klein mentions at the end are largely a smokescreen behind which the capitalist Deep State works their magic. 

 

I believe the Deep State is desperate enough to arrange an accident which appears to kill this Kennedy. Then what will the Kennedy crowd and the dissenters do? Are we prepared to challenge the Deep State which has steadily pursued world hegemony since WWII?  Or once again, be cowed by our worship of government authorities who serve the ruling capitalist class? There are so many threats to the continuation of humans like the growing awareness of abrupt climate destabilization and the dangerous, desperate launching of aggression toward China, Russia, and Iran. Most Americans are fast asleep to these dangers. These are dangerous times we Americans and the people of the world are living in!

This is what I understood him to say. In this visual/audio weblog, Martyanov declares that Russia is powerful enough (militarily, economically, etc.) to ignore Europe, and has aligned itself with all kinds of relations with Asia.

Washington’s uncompromising foreign policy of coercing and crushing nations rather than allowing nations to enjoy constructive ties between both East and West has gone from protecting nearly a century of US global domination to a process of the US’ own self-isolation.

Should Myanmar’s crisis subside and stability be restored specifically because of China’s economic rather than political or military intervention, a strong signal will be sent to the rest of Southeast Asia targeted by US interference and facing similar choices of either tolerating US interference because of the financial stranglehold the US still has over the region and the world – or adopting alternatives that undercut and eliminate that stranglehold.

• "Our Rulers Can Be as Barbaric as the Taliban by Jared Taylor from American Renaissance. My brief commentary follows: 

This is one example, among many, of an attack on monument destroyers that one currently encounters in corporate media and their acolytes. As such, the criticism epitomizes attacks from old-fashioned members of the ruling capitalist class which I refer to as old-fashioned capitalists that have reluctantly yielded to control to our masters in the present capitalist ruling class often referred to as "neoliberals" who are exactly the same as "neoconservatives" (if they don't want to offend right-wing or Zionist Jews). They are really advanced versions of capitalists or transnational capitalists who currently rule over a de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire and have an army (NATO) that is spearheading the drive to rule the world.

 

My personal opinion is that ordinary people are tired "up the wazoo" when seeing in public places such monuments that depict historical ruling class heroes. They belong in museums, but instead, they are prominently displayed in public areas to impose their historical ruling class ideologies on ordinary people. Ordinary people don't have the wherewithal to move them to museums, but take matters into their practical hands to destroy them, and with them, their past ruling class ideologies. There are plenty such historical relics to put in museums. Only the present spokesmen of the recent or current ruling classes object to this revolutionary display by ordinary people. 

 

The present-day critics such as Jared Taylor often lump them together with the destroyers of ancient ruling classes by terrorist armies that are sponsored by the US/British/Zionist transnational ruling class.

... far too often, the facts don’t even matter. In a heavily conditioned society, way too many folks choose to believe what they are told/taught/programmed to believe. Don’t take my word for it. Just take a look around. How/why does that happen? I’ve written about this before yet, it sadly remains relevant and timely, so here we go again.

In his book, The Pig Who Sang to the Moon: The Emotional World of Farm Animals, Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson writes: “I was told by some New Zealand sheep farmers that sometimes a particularly smart lamb will learn to undo the latch of a gate, evidently not an uncommon skill, and the sheep farmer then worries that the lamb might teach his less clever companions to do the same.”

Masson asked the farmers: “What do you with sheep who can undo the latch?”

“We shoot them,” came the reply, “so they can’t pass on their knowledge.”

• “Four Meals from Anarchy”: Rising Food Prices Could Spark Famine, War, and Revolution in 2022 by Alan Macleod from Mint Press News (based in Minneapolis).

The British government has historically maintained that the United Kingdom is only ever “four meals from anarchy” – meaning that the country would descend into widespread disorder, rioting and protest if stores were to run out of food for more than a day. While there is little to no indication of that happening in the U.S., hunger is on the rise, and with it political disenchantment. What form that will take remains to be seen. Globally, however, the situation is as grave as it has been in living memory, and it seems inconceivable that there will be no political ramifications to the shortages. If so, it could make the Arab Spring look mild by comparison.

Foreign aid was revered by the Washington establishment, and the World Bank epitomized the arrogance of the financial masters of the universe (at least in their own minds and press releases). The World Bank, heavily subsidized by US taxpayers, profited from every debacle it spawned. The more loans the bank made, the more prestige and influence it acquired. After a profusion of bad loans to Third World governments helped ignite a debt crisis, I warned in a 1985 Wall Street Journal piece that expanding the World Bank’s role “would be akin to appointing Mrs. O’Leary’s cow as chief of the Chicago Fire Department.”

I was astounded at how many despots the World Bank was propping up.

• Is Ethiopia Next. The Strategy Session, Episode 40 with Matthew Ehret. This post features a podcast (54:44) on SoundCloud by Ehret explaining the subject.

Many westerners trying to make sense of the events in the “dark continent” of Africa have many barriers standing in the way of their minds and reality. This must be the case, for without such filters of spin proclaiming Africa’s problems to be self-induced (or the consequence of Chinese debt slavery), we in the west, might actually feel horrified enough to demand systemic change. We might come to recognize that the plight of Africa has less to do with Africa and more to do with an intentional program of depopulation, and exploitation of vital resources.

My reaction: This weblog has been attacked by those who are concerned about money. Rogers then goes on to provide the details. I noticed that this weblog plans to convert this website to a subscription-only website.

• When Your Government Ends A War But Increases The Military Budget, You’re Being Scammed by Australian Caitlin Johnstone with her American husband, Tim Foley, also reading the script (but you may miss supporting examples, illustrations, etc.)--from her weblog. 💥My rather impatient commentary (a best commentary) follows:  

The American people and most of those people that reside in the US/British/Zionist Empire have, indeed, been scammed! And, they must finally take responsibility for the scourge of capitalism. I don't know if this is gullibility is a part of human nature, but is obvious to me, and a few others like Johnstone, that the system is a fundamental cause for the ongoing existential crisis for humans and most other species here on planet Earth!

 

The main issues confronting the world's population are between a system that is designed for the self-serving interests of a tiny number of people who "own" economic property and those who want a socialist system that will forbid the "ownership/control" of economic property. The latter want a socialist government which truly represent them, identifies with them, beholden to them, and will look out for their real needs: health, education, and general well-being. 

 

Capitalists want to gain money via their system because accumulated wealth gives them more power/control over others. However, the world's population are forever deceived into thinking that this tiny group of capitalists are only interested in accumulating wealth. For a limited time capitalists will supply goods in order to gain power over others, but their long-term goal is to gain power/control over others in the entire world! Control is the number one thing that capitalists want! It is this component of capitalism that causes them to tell countless lies and commit the most outrageous crimes to the rest of the world's population. It is this very addictive component of capitalism that drives this transnational class of capitalists toward fascism! You "true believers", and your fellow gullible human beings, share in the responsibility for this!
