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, October 6, 2021

  • Information Dystopia from the Cross Talk Show on RT. (Note: The participants discuss the censorship by Facebook, YouTube, etc.)
  • Picnic Protests Sweep the World! featuring Canadian James Corbett, who lives in Japan, from his website providing information of the "vaccine pandemic" and the mandates that are becoming more onerous. (Note: Corbett's title focuses on the type of protests that are occurring in parts of France, Switzerland, and Italy.) My reaction: But what if the capitalist ruling classes decide to mandate requiring vaccination documents to enter grocery stores? They seem to be desperate to have everyone under their control vaccinated.
  • The Great Barrington Declaration One Year On by Phillip W. Magness and James R. Harrigan from American Institute for Economic Research. My reaction: This article clearly shows how the ruling classes of the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire are desperate in their drive to vaccinate everybody under their control.
The ... most pervasive myth regarding smallpox is that the disease was totally eradicated due to vaccination. In reality, nothing could be farther from the truth.
In a system of top-down surveillance capitalism with an increasing section of the population deemed ‘unproductive’ and ‘useless eaters’, notions of individualism, liberal democracy and the ideology of free choice and consumerism are regarded by the elite as ‘unnecessary luxuries’ along with political and civil rights and freedoms.
 
We need only look at the ongoing tyranny in Australia to see where other countries could be heading.
