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 Friday, March 4, 2022

  • It's Official: They Lied featuring Russell Brand, a British comedian turned serious activist, commenting on the Canadian policies to crush the Freedom Convoy--from Brand's channel on YouTube (13:12). My reaction: Canada, as a part of the British Commonwealth, is an integral part of the de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire.
  • Israel Defends Kiev’s Nazi Authorities by Vladimir Odintsov from New Eastern Outlook. My reaction: The delay in condemning the Russian invasion of Ukraine demonstrates Israel's commitment to capitalism and to the de-facto US/British/Zionist capitalist Empire, much more than its own history.
  • Ukraine Neo-Nazis Infiltrate EVERY LEVEL Of Military & Government featuring Jimmy Dore and Max Blumenthal (founder of The Grayzone) furnishing evidence that the neo-Nazis are in control of Ukraine, supplied with NATO's huge weapons and using right-wing President Zelensky as a capitalist-Jewish cover for propaganda purposes to deceive the world--using Dore's channel on YouTube (25:48). 
  • US/NATO Provoked Ukraine War Say Most Experts On Russia featuring Jimmy Dore and Max Blumenthal (founder of The Grayzone) both of whom elaborate with the facts of Ukraine history and outrageous propaganda coverage by mainstream media, and others who have been longtime critics--who have been always ignored by mainstream media--of the Empire's policies--using Dore's channel on YouTube (34:38). My reaction: The Nazi goals are pursued by the capitalist de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire because it is a continuation of policies to eliminate any nation that aspires to independence or has anything like a socialist system. The capitalist directors of the Empire continue to pursue such fascist policies, the last stage of capitalism. For an explanation of this view, read my exposé which is supported by the more recent book entitled Tomorrow the World by Stephen Wertheim, a Columbia University professor.
  • The Overton Window Is Being Shoved Toward Warmongering Extremism by Australian Caitlin Johnstone with her American husband, Tim Foley, also reading the script (07:17), but you may miss supporting examples, illustrations, etc.)--from her weblog. My reaction: The de-facto Empire is now employing censorship and job-loss to anyone that attempts to question its policies just like it did during the "pandemic".
  • 💥How Russia Will Counterpunch the U.S./EU Declaration of War by Pepe Escobar from Strategic Culture Foundation. This is a best post. My reaction: It is clear to me that this war in Ukraine is a fight-to-the-finish or a pivotal event in the geopolitical history of the world. On the other side, we won't see either a capitalist and a mixed or socialist systems anywhere in the world existing at the same time--one will disappear. In any event (def.), we will face abrupt climate destabilization in the near future that will take all our faculties to overcome.
  • Beyond Code RED : IPCC 2022 featuring Raya Salter speaks with Dr. Deborah Ley, a Lead Author of the #IPCC Report, which focuses on widespread and irreversible impacts, adaptation and vulnerability--from Facing Future's channel on YouTube (34:52). My reaction: Notice the optimistic report comes from this very conservative organization which is heavily influenced by representatives of the capitalist Empire. The directors of the capitalist transnational Empire have no intention to prevent abrupt climate destabilization, with the exception of reducing the world's population, which might interfere with their pursuit of profits and power.
