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, April 20, 2022

Note: I ended up not sleeping the entire night, so I don't know what extent that I will finish this posting and the quality it deserves. Yesterday's disappeared post was a shock to me. It is likely, more than not, that technicians have revised Google's worksheet, and that was the cause of the disappeared post yesterday. The technicians probably left an error in their program which will be corrected soon. We shall see. They have done this a number of times in the past years, and it always caused difficulties for me, but I was able to continue to post using various adjustments.

I will not post tomorrow because of a medical appointment.
Dr. Jessica Rose discusses the fraud we've all experienced over the past few years in relation to the pandemic. The data shows negative efficacy regarding the COVID19 vaccine, meaning that it's actually hurting you. If they can lie about issues surrounding COVID19 so easily, then what have they been lying about the whole time? She goes into the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) and how the adverse event and death reports related to COVID19 injections are off the chart. The FDA and CDC are not even looking at the data. She believes the vaccine is a segueway into introducing new injection platforms, normalizing injections, and digitizing the human. She agrees the goal of the Vaccine Passports is to install the Social Credit System. The WHO Pandemic Treaty will be the total loss of sovereignty for all countries and individuals. That's the end.
  • Is Covid Actually Snake Venom?? Episode 57, Part 1 by Chris Martenson from his weblog Peak Prosperity. Martenson reviews the evidence behind the documentary “Watch the Water”. He write the film is a hugely successful/popular “documentary” that purports that Remdesivir is actually snake venom, and that what we call Covid is really people’s reactions to snake venom. (Note: There is also a video (54:34) which features Martenson and his criticism of the movie.)
The United Kingdom’s Office for National Statistics “the UK’s largest independent producer of official statistics and its recognised national statistical institute” has quietly released substantial data on the COVID-19 vaccines.
The larger issues that are at stake raised by the Russian intervention in the Donbass were highlighted by Russia’s foreign minister Sergei Lavrov in an interview he gave to Russian media last week. Lavrov said that “the special military operation aims to put an end to the unfettered expansions and unfettered course toward total domination of the United States and other Western states under it on the international arena.”
 
My reaction: O'Neill seems to agree with Lavrov's statement.
There is endless excitement about Russia’s imminent “economic sovereignty,” but what about Russia’s medical sovereignty? Does it matter if Russia adopts the golden petro-yuan (or whatever) if it continues to copy-paste “health measures” drafted by an organization that gets most of its funding from NATO states and Bill Gates?

It’s a serious question, especially because the WHO is forging ahead with its so-called “global pandemic treaty.” Slated for completion in 2024, the agreement will give the World Health Organization unprecedented powers to combat new outbreaks of positive PCR tests.

Does Russia really need this? After two years of the WHO’s non-stop virus scamming, maybe it’s time to pull the plug?

Thankfully, a grassroots campaign (aided by lawmakers) seeks Russia’s immediate withdrawal from the WHO. This is an excellent idea—but is it possible?
  • WATCH: CN Live! — ‘The Assange Family Struggle’  features Joe Lauria speaks to Assange's father John Shipton, brother Gabriel Shipton and Ben Lawrence, director of Ithaka, a film in which clips are played. Joe Lauria interviews various figures related to a new film Ithaka in addition to family members--from Consortium News. (Note: The post start at 1:56 and its length is 49:30--so it's about 47:30 in duration.)
Assange faces 175 years in prison for publishing accurate information revealing prima facie evidence of war crimes by the United States. There is a human side to Assange’s story rarely seen.

It is revealed in the new film Ithaka by director Ben Lawrence. It tells the story of a father and a wife’s struggle to save their son and husband. The film follows Assange’s father, John Shipton, and his wife, Stella Assange, during the days of Assange’s extradition hearing in February and September 2020 and Shipton’s journeys to the United States and Europe to gain support for his son with governments and the public.
  • The Telephone by Paul Craig Roberts from his weblog. My reaction: Some local medical outfit's employee sold the email address to an agent who sold the address to numerous corporations. Now I am inundated with emails on my email server I've had for many years. I thoroughly agree with his following statement:
I remember when the telephone was a useful and appreciated device. The digital revolution, one of humanity’s most unfortunate developments, has turned the telephone into a nuisance and a threat.
