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.

  • The Skew in Science That Feeds US EPA Regulation by S. Stanley Young and Warren Kindzierski from American Institute for Economic Research. (Note: John Ioannidis in the first paragraph is a top Stanford epidemiologist. Use my search engines to find out more about him.) My reaction: Science is skewed to favor the billionaire ruling class who are addicted to power and profits. They rule, and we suffer.
  • Wearable “Solutions” and the Internet of Incarceration by Jeremy Loffredo from Unlimited Hangout. My reaction: As technology, controlled by capitalists, discover more and more methods of population control and tracking you, you can expect that the methods will be designed for the greater panopticon (under the "Great Reset") to ensure the ruling class's access to profit and power. Of course, technology is neutral, but the way it is used can give the ruling billionaire class more power and control over you while amassing wealth for themselves. Everything about the capitalist system impels them to use technology in this way. Or it can be used to enhance and protect your health and welfare. Which do you see it used for under the current system?
  • New World Next Week with James Evan Pilato featuring the latest discussion (27:20m) by Corbett and Pilato regarding three subjects: 1) AT&T In ‘Advanced’ Talks To Combine HBO, CNN, Discovery And Other Media Assets; 2) Palestinians Stage Historic Strike Over Israeli Abuses, Gaza Bombing; 3) OSHA Tells Employers They May Be Liable For Adverse Reactions’ Over Vax Mandate from The Corbett Report.
  • 💥Propaganda and the Media — Part 3 – Establishing and Controlling the Narrative by Larry Romanoff from "The Saker Blog". This is a best post. The article represents a sophisticated exposure of the concentration of ownership (and wealth) occurring since WWII that has shaped mainstream news that most Americans follow. Because the latter have not been conscious of this concentration of wealth (mainstream media have long hidden information related to this fact), they have been so filled with propaganda that has served the wealthy instead of serving their own interests.
I stated earlier that the US media function as the microphone of the US State Department, full partners in scripting propaganda campaigns to achieve foreign policy objectives. But it is crucial to understand that the Americans are not leading these international geo-political, social, and moral assaults. They are merely functioning as the Bankers’ Private Army to accomplish the objectives of a group of European-UK elites who are always in the shadows and led by one who ... is “he who must not be named”.
 
I have described the slow and deliberate rise of fascist-capitalists and a summary of their efforts to groom the American population for their project to construct the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire since WWII.
  • Peasant mobilizations against backdrop of agrarian crisis by Sushovan Dhar from International Viewpoint. (Note: I need to magnify the text in order to read it, but if that doesn't help, you can read the article in its secondary source from CDTM.) My reaction: This is profoundly relevant for people who want to become informed about the farmer's massive protests against the government of India and their recent agricultural "reforms". Otherwise this post may interest you because it seems that the transnational capitalist frequently tests out their self-serving plans in foreign countries before they implement them here in the USA, the center of the reality of the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire.
The Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act allows farmers to sell their products outside the mandis (markets) of the Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) without paying taxes. The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Act allows farmers to sell their future products to agri-food companies at a predetermined price, and the Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act eases the centre’s control over the production and sale of agricultural products.

The Indian government wants us to believe that these laws are a decisive moment for Indian agriculture because they free farmers from the influence of intermediaries. But farmers’ organizations see it as a measure that increases the level of participation of private companies. There are two concerns about the laws. First, their content is seen as a threat to small and marginal farmers. Second, the haste with which they were passed in parliament is seen as a threat by states and regional parties. Let’s examine why the laws have met with strong opposition from farmers’ associations, opposition political parties and state governments ....

  • The Covidian Cult (Part II) by political satirist CJ Hopkins from his weblog Consent Factory, Inc. (Note: He occasionally detours from his usual ridicule and becomes serious in exposing what he calls the "covidian cult".)
  • Forging Vaccine Passports featuring James Corbett from his weblog offering his insights that forging vaccine passports is not the answer even though reporting on this solution is accompanied by propaganda to encourage fake passports. My reaction: What is the solution to this? Unfortunately, this anarchist doesn't have an answer because "the powers that shouldn't be" (read our "ruling capitalist class") are coming with their solution because "it is for your own good". Listen to what their solution is!
  • US Order Against Russia: Italy at Attention by Manlio Dinucci, translated from Italian on Il Manifesto, and reproduced on Global Research. (Note: This report reveals how the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire is currently imposing "such costs as to cause a strategic impact on Russia”.)
  • The Impact of Population, Productivity, and Consumption on the Planet featuring Jaia Syvitski, professor at the University of Colorado and Stuart H. Scott, educator and environmentalist discussing the climate crisis. My reaction: I notice that Prof. Syvitski emphasizes population; and whenever Scott introduces that capitalism is a central problem, she always brings back the subject of population as the problem. She is in tune with our transnational ruling class of capitalists as expressed by Karl Schwab and the Great Reset as the solution to our climate crisis--the very thing that capitalism promoted along with its alliance with Christianity and similar religions.

From the increasing sophistication of US intelligence/military contractor Palantir’s predictive policing programs to the formal announcement of the Justice Department’s Disruption and Early Engagement Program in 2019 to Biden’s first budget, which contains $111 million for pursuing and managing “increasing domestic terrorism caseloads,” the steady advance toward a precrime-centered “war on domestic terror” has been notable under every post-9/11 presidential administration.

.... And, while Facebook has long sought to portray itself as a “town square” that allows people from across the world to connect, a deeper look into its apparently military origins and continual military connections reveals that the world’s largest social network was always intended to act as a surveillance tool to identify and target domestic dissent.
  • Being on the Left Involves Losing a Lot by Nathan J. Robinson from Current Affairs. My reaction: So why keep fighting against corporations within the capitalist system? Better in the years to come to organize the fight against capitalism and for socialism, that is, the public ownership and control of the economy to serve social needs, not private needs of billionaires.
  • The FUNNIEST Russia-Gate Headlines Of All Time featuring Jimmy Dore (a comedian from his Rokfin video channel--58:35m) together with Aaron Maté from The Grayzone and Ron Placone hilariously reviewing numerous Russia-Gate headlines from major media corporations. 
  • Sunbeams From Cucumbers: The View From the Khanate of Kaganstan by Patrick Armstrong from Strategic Culture Foundation. (Note: This is mostly about the evidence of the ignorance displayed the Kagans (Robert Kagan, theorist husband and Victoria Nuland, operative wife) which are playing such a big role in the born-again Obama administration--the redux of the Biden administration.) My reaction: With Zionist players like this, what's to worry us? Except maybe a global nuclear war.
As the China-Russian-Iran alliance continues to gain new momentum spreading win-win cooperation and development across Asia, Africa and the World, the dying unipolar system run by detached militarists, financiers and technocrats is doubling down on its weird mix of 1) a “scorched earth” offensive threat to “dissuade” China and Russia from continuing on their current trajectory and 2) a “positive” green game on which nations are invited to tie their destinies as an alternative to China’s BRI [Belt and Road Initiative].

  • 💥Why COVID Policies Are A War Against Humanity by Neenah Payne from Activist Post. This is a best post. (I only scanned this, but it provides so much good material and so many important links to documentation. I will read it carefully later.) My brief and later (at 6:36 PM CDT) commentary follows: 
Although I have some objections and qualifications regarding this post, I generally approve of the importance of this post. Regarding my objections and qualifications, I object to the sanctification of our "Founding Fathers" in the (38:49m) interview with Vera Sharav. The only member of the Founding Fathers who objected to some of actions of the rest of the ruling class at that time was Jefferson. But he also had slaves which were needed to furnish labor on his plantation. 
 
I also object to her propaganda-like allegations that (at 21:49m) the "same thing happened in Soviet regime and the Chinese regime". She has obviously been fed this information as indoctrination to hate the Soviet Union and Communist China. But what she directly experienced in Nazi Germany and the USA is undoubtedly true.
I don't know if this event is the global trade disrupting event that the author makes of it (with documentation), but it fits within his theory about the coming food crisis, fulfilling the Great Reset agenda, and that we should all plan to localize our food supply. It is the latter that I differ from him. 
 
I see a growing movement of contemporary activists that want to localize our lifestyles to cope with the transnational effort (neoliberalism) to globalize all trade and to supply our daily requirements by major corporations. This development (see also this and this) promises physical and other separations from the neoliberal agenda of advanced capitalist nations as a solution to all of our social problems. This is dead wrong.
 
Not only does it take away from efforts to topple capitalist regimes and replace them with real socialist systems, but it also supplies a wrong solution to most of the major problems confronting us: a world facing a global nuclear war, extreme economic inequality, and the presence of tiny self-serving ruling classes and dictatorial regimes.
  • New World Next Week with James Evan Pilato from The Corbett Report.

    After 10 Years of Civil War in Syria, US (Quietly) Declares Defeat but Won’t Go Home by Alan Macleod from Mint Press News. My reaction: US forces continue to occupy 1/3 of Syrian territory and bleed the Syrian economy of their precious oil resources. Maybe the ruling class has settled for a nation that is weak and unstable. It looks to me like the ruling class has turned much of its aggressiveness and rage from foreign affairs toward potential activist groups within the USA by promoting policies of surveillance and increasing onerous laws against their civil rights. 
  • Washington's Obsession with China Expands by Brian Berletic, an ex-Marine living with his family in Thailand, from his weblog Land Destroyer Report. (Note: Berletic reveals that the actions by the US government indicate that the primary concern of its foreign policy toward China is motivated by a concern to advance the profits US corporations and other transnational corporations under the control of the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire.) My reaction: This applies to all policies promoted by the Empire. It is the expression of neofascism (essentially governments corrupted by the promotion of power and profits by the Empire's ruling capitalist classes) which saw the replacement of the fascist nations led by Nazi Germany in the last century with the new US/Anglo/Zionist Empire since then.
In the ensuing days of meetings, it should not come as a surprise that very little in the way of serious conflict resolution occurred. In fact, the only solid points of agreement which the U.S. side would permit involved two joint protocols that fall perfectly into alignment with the Malthusian closed system objectives of the Great Reset agenda attempting to reign in a post-nation state world order in the wake of the oncoming economic meltdown.
 
Eric Zuesse agrees with Ehret in his latest article.
Haiti is heading for days of great misfortune. Haitians, for the most part, are increasingly convinced that the United Nations considers them as enemies to be eliminated. We are no longer in the conspiratorial scenarios in which Haitians were seen as prime targets by resentful Western leaders, thirsting for revenge for the 1803 defeat of the French generals at Saint-Domingue. For those readers who think it is inconceivable to claim that the United Nations intends to establish a regime of terror in Haiti, let them think again by looking at what has happened or is still happening in countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Iraq, Libya, Syria and, above all, in Egypt, where the arrival of the Muslim Brotherhood to power democratically led to a military coup and a very bloody repression (1).

The United Nations is trying to establish a regime of terror in Haiti. To prove it, ....

CounterPunch runs Urie's articles occasionally to demonstrate their radicalness, but this is all pretense. Usually they post articles that support the ruling capitalist class with emphasis on criticisms of the government. However, the legitimacy of capitalist classes is increasingly being called into question and doubts are rising. The people at CounterPunch don't want to be left behind. Worse yet, nowadays pretense is omnipresent in our capitalist culture.
Because the rising capitalist in the 18th century had a sufficient answer to the existential quandaries of humans, and the rule of a small group of aristocracy, which based their rule on inheritance, whose ancestors had conquered lands and enjoyed papal support for their rule, became no longer viable. Capitalists were able to attain state power based on individual "ownership" of economic property. This class took power away from feudal authorities and soon learned that "ownership" of economic property brought other rewards such as political influence. Under this class's system of capitalism, economic property became a commodity to be purchased in some market; and today this class has, through the consolidation of property into a few hands, taken control of many nations.
Starting in the late 20th century, capitalist classes used feudal inheritance laws to consolidate vast economic properties. They soon saw opportunities in other nations to acquire property which gave them more influence within their native countries and beyond. They no longer felt bound in nation-states in order to pursue their goals of ever increasing consolidation of property. Thus, arose a transnational class of capitalists with an ideology of neoliberalism. ("neo" of course means new, and "liberal" refers to the classic definition of capitalist ideology. They, as a ruling class, have imposed this term because it sounds much nicer than transnational capitalism.) Wherever possible, this new class has removed national barriers from restrictions that nations have imposed on the exchange of commodities.

It was soon to become apparent that the capitalist belief that you could simply buy economic property in some market and accumulate ever increasing profits and power was mistaken. It could, and did, lead to many other social problems like gross inequality, crime, wars, etc. Soon people learned that the source of individual wealth was strongly influenced by class that you were born into which gave advantages such as educational opportunities, opportunities provided by family wealth, political and economic social connections, etc. The new Protestant Christian sects of the Reformation can no longer convince most people to support capitalist rule.

However by this time, ruling capitalist classes gained so much social and political power that they could limit such recognition and impose the values and norms of capitalism. This is when pretense and capitalist propaganda really set into motion. In the 21st century this trend was followed by increasing amounts of censorship and propaganda that validated capitalism and capitalist rule. This is where we are today: capitalist class overwhelming control of nations, powerless citizens, omnipresent censorship, surveillance of communications, and ruling class propaganda that is designed to hide truthful reporting of events, and the use of various sophisticated means of manipulation of thoughts of sub-classes. And, the frequent collapses of capitalist economies is contributing to this feeling of illegitimacy.  In short, the philosophical foundations of capitalism are increasingly being seen as illegitimate. What is much worse, the dominant system of capitalism is in terminal conflict with the forces of nature which will produce dramatic climatic crises, and will likely end with the extinction of humans and most other species that exist today.
  • You Never Know by David Perez from Off-Guardian, and independent weblog based in Britain.
  • Is the Current Climate Catastrophe Irreversible? by Vladimir Danilov from New Eastern Outlook. My reaction: The future looks to me far worse than the author's. Note that he leaves his pessimistic essay on an insane false-hope. Anyone who believes that the Biden administration will rescue us from climate destabilization should seek psychiatric help.
  • American Marines Reclaimed Northern China in 1945 from Tales of the American Empire via their YouTube channel in a 6:59m video. (Note: This is for history buffs who got a history that was extensively revised and taught in American public schools.)

  • 9/11 Justice in 2021: An Interview with Ted Walter featuring Walter, a high-profile activist who is associated with various 9/11 organizations demanding an independent study of the 9/11 event which was the greatest psy-op in history. He is currently Director of Strategy and Development at AE911Truth from which this interview is sourced. Except for a self-disclosure of Walter's background as a teacher in Philadelphia, I could find no other information regarding the educational credentials of Ted Walter. However, the AE911Truth organization consists of mostly architects and engineers who see the obvious flaws of the government's official account of the 9/11 event.
Baker is completely unaware that he is exposing the contradictions between the logic of capitalism as applied to the current health pandemic that is creating havoc among people who do not have access to medical care and low-cost drugs and the profit motive of capitalist actors. He doesn't realize that under advanced capitalism drugs are only considered a commodity like any other to enrich those who have ownership (and control) over intellectual patents. Advanced capitalism is where the capitalist class has so much consolidated wealth and power that they control government institutions that supposedly serve the people. Baker, whose career as a well-paid economist has been comfortably serving capitalist institutions for the benefit of himself and his family, still isn't aware of the contradictions of capitalism that promotes the welfare of a tiny class of rich capitalists against the well-being of the overwhelming majority of the world's population.
Silicon Valley’s most influential companies, alongside healthcare companies, US intelligence contractors and the Commons Project Foundation, recently launched the Vaccination Credential Initiative. The initiative’s ambitions reach far beyond vaccines and will have major implications for civil liberties.
... the US is waving around a broken stick and has run out of carrots. China on the other hand, waves around a big stick and one not aimed at players in the region, but at America and its retreat across the Pacific. China is also enjoying an abundance of carrots which to offer potential allies. 
For all of these reasons, the US, through its own foreign policy, is isolating itself, not China and it is a trend that will only continue into the foreseeable future until the US is able to forego its position above all other nations and accept a constructive position among them instead.
  • The Russian Revolution: Separating Truth from Myth by Max Parry from The Unz Review. My reaction: I've encountered this propaganda so often. This article describes how capitalist ideologists tried to re-write the history of the Russian Revolution to conform to capitalist propaganda. But the irony is that his capitalist masters fired Prof. Antony Sutton in 1976 from Stanford's Hoover Institution after he wrote in his book Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler that international capitalists funded the rise of the Nazi Party. Sutton was highly erratic in his interpretation of history, but so were his peers who were trying to ingratiate themselves with their capitalist bosses to provide support for their propaganda.

  • Amber Waves by Martin Empson from Climate & Capitalism. (Note: This is a review of a book by the same title authored by Catherine Zabinski.) Empson writes: 
Wheat however is no longer simply food. It is a commodity that is both highly profitable and a weapon in the arsenal of imperialist nations — particularly the United States. The vast wheat farms of the American Midwest enabled the US to shape the world in its own interest. Zabinski points out that the “Green Revolution” was less about feeding the world and more about fighting “Red Revolution” in the Global South. Like the ruling classes of the first states the US saw the Green Revolution as a way of ensuring its own [capitalist] ideals dominated around the world. But the experience for many recipient countries was much more negative as home-grown agriculture was undermined. [my insertion]
  • Large US military convoy enters Syria from neighboring Iraq from AMN (Al-Masdar News). My reaction: And the "war-beat" goes on. Self-absorbed, throughly indoctrinated American workers have no idea how various regions of the world suffer US violence because they only watch self-serving US/Anglo/Zionist Empire propaganda from corporate TV. Also, much of the USA ignores the almost daily raids by Israeli airplanes on Palestinians and adjacent countries. Now that the Deep State is increasingly turning against most Americans, hopefully they will awaken to the devastation imposed on them in the future, learn about the worldwide suffering at the hands of the Empire, and identify with all the "wretched of the earth".

  • An Exhausted Planet Limps Into 2021 by Robert Hunziker from CounterPunch. My reaction: The only thing that I can disagree with this article is this sentence: "Adopt eco economics as a healthy replacement for the neoliberal brand of forever-growth capitalism, cruising along on a golden paved road to never-never land of fantasy and ecstasy." Plain capitalism was never going to restrain itself from "the forever-growth" phenomenon because the wealth and power that the system delivers to families is too powerfully addictive. Transnational capitalism (they call it "neoliberalism") is only an updated version of capitalism, and it is not responsible for our crisis. It is the system itself. The denial of this fact only comforts upper-middle-class careerists who find the thought distasteful, that their role was essential by assisting capitalists to own and control everything on Earth. They want to shed their guilt in pursuit of their own comfortable lives by denying their collusion with capitalists, and that they might be also responsible for this crisis that threatens all life on Earth.

  • Mad Dog Mattis not so mad with Globalist agenda, says America First is over (from The Duran) featuring Alex Christoforou and Alexander Mercouris discussing Mattis's statement reported by RT: "General James Mattis wants to replace ‘America First’…with alliances that see ‘America equal, but more equal than others’" I don't think it is necessary to listen to more than eight minutes of this video. My criticism follows: 
They lampoon Mattis for making these statements which he obviously made to please the incoming administration of neoliberalists ("globalists", transnational interests of global corporations and finance organizations). What these two discussants don't understand is that the transnational capitalist class of the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire function in so many countries, and they don't like business dealings with so many countries which have different tariffs and regulations. For their convenience, they want them all to be the same. 
These capitalists (financiers, CEOs of corporations, etc.) have homes in many countries in which they travel to by private jets (without the necessity of wearing masks, social distancing, etc.), and they naturally see the world differently. They have no allegiance to any one nation, but they hold allegiance to the Empire which largely controls most of these more peripheral countries. The Empire controls most of these countries because they furnish them loans to them to buy their products. Most of the nations controlled by the Empire are indebted up to their necks in international finance organizations like the IMF, World Bank, and all the Western banks. These finance people of the Empire largely control the foreign and many domestic policies of these peripheral nations, and they are quintessentially neoliberals or "globalists".
  • Fascism - America's DNA featuring Prof. Gabriel Rockhil explaining fascism to host Chris Hodges on the latter's RT channel of YouTube. This is a best post. Although Hedges, according to his training in American academia, likes to present fascism as being exemplified by Trump and racist organizations (which tend to divide workers), Rockhill makes clear the ideological necessity of fascist-capitalism to ally itself with anti-worker organizations and ideologies influenced by socialist and communist parties who vigorously oppose private ownership of the economy or any government that serves the needs of the general public rather than the needs of capitalists. Hence, fascism is in the DNA of American capitalism.
... in May and June, although the number of new Covid cases steadily rose, the percentage of tests coming back positive declined, indicating that the rising case numbers were due less to increased cases than to increased testing. And while the media says (correctly) that the number of daily cases in November is setting records, they do not report that this is largely due to increased testing. The fraction of tests that are coming back positive, while rising, is on par with what the US experienced in mid May. 
We can blame this persistent lack of context on a perfect storm of politicians seeking to be “doing something,” media seeking to sell advertising, and people paying enough attention to be scared, but not enough to understand.
The authors blame the distorted presentation of data on the lack of context. But there are many contributing factors such as the faulty test of PCR (see this, this, and this from the inventor of the PCR test.) I regard the lack of context and all other distortions of data to have been deliberately performed by the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire's transnational (neoliberal) ruling class that has engaged in a new "9/11" project to spread fear among populations in order to prepare the groundwork for the Great Reset. The success that the Empire's ruling class has had with their exaggerated corona crisis is an illustration of their comprehensive power that I've often written about.

  • The War on Populism: The Final Act by CJ Hopkins from his weblog Consent Factory, Inc. Note: Hopkins, an exceptional American satirist who is currently living in Berlin, uses a type of satire, parody, to lampoon the ruling class's war on populism, or what I think is the working class, or a section of it known to members of the ruling class as "deplorables"(because they refuse to follow their orders). He does this by way of an industry that he knows so well--a Hollywood production of a film (in three acts).
So, it appears the War on Populism is building toward an exciting climax. All the proper pieces are in place for a Class-A GloboCap color revolution, and maybe even civil war. You got your unauthorized Putin-Nazi president, your imaginary apocalyptic pandemic, your violent identitarian civil unrest, your heavily-armed politically-polarized populace, your ominous rumblings from military quarters … you couldn’t really ask for much more.  
OK, the plot is pretty obvious by now (as it is in all big-budget action spectacles, which is essentially what color revolutions are), but that won’t spoil our viewing experience. The fun is in watching Bruce, or Sigourney, or “the moderate rebels,” or the GloboCap “Resistance,” take down the monster, or the terrorists, or Hitler, and save the world, or democracy, or whatever.
  • The End of Reality? by Edward Curtin from his weblog Behind the Curtain. My commentary follows:
Curtin, who is well read, discusses today's use of technology by the ruling capitalist class as a problem that he doubts that we can overcome. Technology, which has taken off especially in the late 1800s until today, is now an advanced tool that can be used to make our lives richer in meaning or it can be used to give the ruling class greater weapons to control us. The ruling class, which (almost by definition) controls technology as well as nearly everything else, and has established a powerful empire, obviously uses the option of control to secure their privileges of wealth and power, as well as the system that delivers this wealth and power--capitalism. They do this by configuring "reality" for us by rewriting history, daily doses of propaganda via their media corporations, and imposing their views on any institution that uses ideology as a prop to educate and/or entertain. The directors of this new US/Anglo/Zionist Empire have been doing this in a dedicated and systematic fashion over the decades since WWII. Now, and many decades later, it is no wonder that Curtin doubts whether we ordinary people can overcome this mind-bending experience.

  • Is There A Flu Shot / COVID Link? – Questions For Corbett featuring Canadian James Corbett (who lives in Japan) from his website. (Note: This post was inspired by a personal experience that I had last November. I received the flu shot in early November and I came down with the flu a day or two later. This was a shocking experience for me because it was unprecedented of getting flu shots in the last 30 years. If I came done with flu, it was always in the spring of the following year. I am otherwise a very healthy 84 year old (83 last year), and haven't come down with covid-19, but I've wondered about this strange happening ever since. This post offers some correlations and research studies that suggests there may be a link between getting flu shots and covid-19 illness.)

Will Belarus Become the Next Banderastan? by "The Saker" (Andrei Raevsky) from The Unz Review. (Note: Raevsky uses an odd spelling ("Ianukovich") for the Western conventional spelling of "Yanukovych", the former head of the Ukrainian government.)

My commentary follows:

Raevsky is clearly the best informed writer on the web who understands what is going on in Belarus. The Empire is using their color-revolution strategies to subvert the Belarus's government and co-opt many opposition groups by funding the latter. I cannot understand why the opposing independent nations cannot come up with appropriate defense against these color revolutions. One would think that the Russian and Belarus leadership, after the Ukraine experience, would have devised effective counter strategies to prevent this from happening especially in a border state like Belarus.

Apparently only genuine democratic nations (instead of fake democracies) can withstand these strategies, but these nations have not yet appeared and I doubt that they will appear before climate destabilization puts an end to humans and most other species. If indeed by a miracle such nations did appear in the time remaining, it would still be too late to save humanity because climate destabilization has already set in. But this miraculous event would served to redeem (def) the human species for their roughly 10, 000 years of acceptance of self-serving ruling class societies.

So much debate over whether or not we should be wearing masks in order to fight COVlD but multiple scientific studies over the past decade have already settled this question.

Posts I especially recommend for today: Tuesday, November 12, 2019 (edited at 1:54 PM & 5:50 PM CT mainly to add one more entry & comments)

The Coup in Bolivia:
  • President Morales Calls Out U.S. Foreign Policy as Trump Listens in UN Security Council Meeting, uploaded onto YouTube by Representative Press. (Note: especially watch until 6:25m.) I have a hunch that this was when the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire decided to get rid of Morales because he spoke too much truth in front of the Security Council of the United Nations--they wouldn't want to be embarrassed any further by Morales or anybody who speaks the truth. The same applies to independent journalists and real whistleblowers.
