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.

Posts that I especially recommend for Wednesday, August 18, 2021

To sum up, the history of the AFT has been steered, time after time, by agents of Rockefeller philanthropies, the Trilateral Commission, UNESCO, and Big Tech corporations such as IBM. From behaviorist pedagogy for ed-tech; to public-private partnerships through virtual charter schools; to cradle-to-career curriculums for workforce-placement pathways; all the way to pay-for-success impact financing for Social Credit—the AFT has been steadily singing to the same tune as its corporate-globalist handlers at the Rockefeller philanthropies, the Trilateral Commission, UNESCO, and IBM.
 
If you were perplexed by the fact that the AFT lobbied the CDC to encumber its back-to-school guidelines with tighter COVID restrictions, which perpetuate distance learning curriculums facilitated through public-private contracts with Big Tech corporations, it might make more sense now. It seems more than just plausible that the American Federation of Teachers has ulterior motives rooted in the AFT’s long history of colluding with Rockefeller corporatists, Trilateral oligarchs, UNESCO globalists, and IBM technocrats in order to bring about what is now known as the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
  • War Mongers Cynically Use "Protecting Women" To Extend War featuring Jimmy Dore of the Jimmy Dore Show and Ron Placone occasionally offering his remarks (via his YouTube channel--23:21m). My reaction: I notice that around 15:15m Dore doesn't criticize Max Boots statement referring to the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire ("Pax Americana" in ruling class terms).
