• Politics and Violence Go Hand in Hand by Thomas Knapp from CounterPunch. My commentary follows:

This article touches more on true wisdom than it appears. But it only touches the surface. There is a whole lot more beneath the surface that I would like draw your attention to. It is the ultimate question on how we humans should live. Unfortunately for our species, we are just cognizant enough to realize that our individual existence is only temporary. But this insight is an unacceptable truth which becomes an ultimate evil.  This realization has caused humans to neurotically believe in delusions: an after-life and an obsession with acquiring power, and especially power over other humans.

You see, we humans think that we are unlike other species which are doomed to only a temporary existence. Most religions teach us that there is some sort of an afterlife. Also we frequently believe that other species exist in order to serve our needs. We humans have long held belief systems, or religions, that put our species at the center of the universe. But religion is only one method to overcome this dreadful consciousness. Domination of other humans has become a major means to ward off this unthinkable fate. Thus, our human history has been marred by attempts to use violence to coerce others to serve our needs. Only recently we have become aware that we humans are only a tiny part of the web of life on our planet Earth; and while we search the universe for other life forms, we haven't yet found any. 

It is apparent that a major part of our existence is in families and clans, and down through the ages we humans have used this organic structure to impose power over other families and clans, and this often has taken some form of violence: outright physical violence, the threat of such violence, and/or the deprivation of the material means of existence such as denying them access to water, food, shelter, jobs, etc. 

Our species' history has produced various systems to socialize entire societies, along with the assistance of religious authorities, to inculcate beliefs among populations that their system was divinely sanctioned, and of course it is the best and only system possible. But people eventually noticed that a certain segments of their societies held more power and material benefits than others. These were designated as ruling classes which consisted of families and clans that used their systems to obtain disproportionate rewards, and sometimes these rewards were extremely disproportionate.  

Human history can be considered as a series of changes of systems, and the latter all have the same characteristics: use of physical force or the threat of such force with a supporting ideology to impose their disproportionate rule on other classes of humans.  Social scientists have identified such systems as rule by military or religious classes; feudalism: rule by those who, or their heirs, of conquered lands; and in our present- day, capitalism. Capitalist families continue to place special value only on families and clans instead of whole societies, but uses a hidden class commitment to capitalism which enables and sustains a ruling class.

Our existing capitalist ruling class continues this sordid history via the private purchase of the economy and awarding the owners of property of nearly unlimited rights. This system uses the denial of life sustenance needs, in addition to the use of violence, mostly directed on those who oppose the system. Capitalists have a built-in tendency to reduce the sustenance needs of workers to a bare minimum, and to deny aid to those who do not contribute to the wealth and power of the capitalist ruling class.  

Currently there is a growing awareness of the unsustainability of capitalism: of the extreme inequality of wealth distribution that is inherent in the capitalist system, the contradictions that are obvious in the capitalist requirement of infinite growth on a finite planet, the lack of awareness by our masters that we humans constitute minuscule part in the web of life on our unique planet Earth. Under capitalism, militaristic ruling classes are currently threatening a nuclear war catastrophe which will end our very existence.

My reaction:

I regard Webb as a top investigative journalist. In this interview she uses her encyclopedia knowledge, gained from her research, to shed light on the Deep State, their various organizations, operatives, and their deceptive propaganda in the run-up to the November election and their Transition Integrity Project. All of these deceptive projects are treated by media corporations as protecting the security of the people, but in reality are designed through their well-honed chaos strategies to create fear in order to increase their neo-fascist control of the population.

• ELECTION 2020: Bourgeois Democracy Meets Global Governance by Diana Johnstone from Consortium News. (A best post.) My reaction: I don't like the introduction to this article by the editors of Consortium News:    

Diana Johnstone considers the fun and games surrounding the possibility of a disputed U.S. election result and concludes that the future is being planned elsewhere, for instance at the next meeting in Davos.

First, I don't like this conspiracy by the Deep State referred to as "fun and games"; and second, I don't like the conspiracy as "being planned elsewhere, for instance at the next meeting in Davos". (The Deep State is referred to only once by Johnstone as "the permanent State": "In reality, Democrats know that they have managed to keep the permanent State, including the military and intelligence agencies, on their side throughout Trump’s presidency.") 

Regarding  the 2nd objection, it appears from Johnstone's report that the conspiracy has already been planned and to some extent implemented--and I have no reason to doubt it.    

My first objection has to do with the casual attitude that the editors display regarding this conspiracy. To be sure, all political processes in the USA have been conspiracy-driven since the USA was founded, but this is a thinly disguised conspiratorial plan that requires a major coup d'état with the public's participation through a grand media hoax that is already being implemented by media corporations that the Deep State controls.       

By keeping Americans angry and distracted by the partisan divide through pre-planned election chaos, a “New America” waits in the wings – one that is coming regardless of what happens on election day. That is, of course, unless Americans quickly wake up to the ruse.

Johnstone accurately recognizes that elected officials are mere pawns who are used by the ruling class to fool the public into believing that they live in some sort of a democracy.

• “Bipartisan” Washington Insiders Reveal Their Plan for Chaos if Trump Wins the Election by investigative journalist Whitney Webb from her website Unlimited Hangout. (Note: A best post.) 

By keeping Americans angry and distracted by the partisan divide through pre-planned election chaos, a “New America” waits in the wings – one that is coming regardless of what happens on election day. That is, of course, unless Americans quickly wake up to the ruse.

My reaction follows:

I am giving this piece of investigative research top billing. I don't always do so because frequently my selection to order important articles follows other criteria--mainly to follow one important article after another to build momentum for a top article. But this well-researched piece explains with solid documentation the apparent current plan to use chaos strategy that I elaborated on in a commentary regarding Tuesday's post entitled "Riots for Neo-Liberalism: ANTIFA & BLM Are the Global Elites’ Useful Thugs". If this plan is followed and if Biden were to lose the November election, who knows where this plan will end?

Karl Wennberg: We found that rather than factoring in the heterogeneous situation each country was in, decision-makers followed the actions of neighbouring countries to a very large degree. .... 

To understand why this has happened, it is important to think about psychological factors. Humans are greatly influenced by the behaviour of other humans, and specifically those they compare themselves with. Key decision-makers obviously compare themselves to other key decision-makers, and hope to be perceived as better than them, or at least not any worse than them. The desire to not be seen to have performed worse is incredibly important when it comes to explaining the decisions made around Covid-19. ....

• Riots for Neo-Liberalism: ANTIFA & BLM Are the Global Elites’ Useful Thugs by Daniele Pozzati from Strategic Culture Foundation. My commentary follows:

Previously I have tended to avoid arguments regarding the riots going on currently in major cities of the USA. They have been increasingly characterized by two opposing groups--antifascists and fascists. I have done this because of the following reasons: I didn't know enough about the participants and I didn't want to alienate participants on the antifascist side that were involved with sincere beliefs in their organizations. 

Much of today's neofascism is manipulated by well-trained agents of the ruling capitalist class who have infiltrated all activist groups in order to control and manipulate them. To be sure, there are a number of people who sincerely believe that they are fighting racism or fascism, but are being increasingly manipulated by these subversive agents. You see, the directors of the ruling class have learned that they can control all antagonistic movements in order to manipulate them for their own ends. This analysis applies to all activist groups: BLM, Antifa, and hardcore fascists.  

The directors of the ruling class have long honed the weapon of organized chaos into a strategy to dominate whole societies. They have done this for many decades notably in places like El Salvador, Iraq, Syria, and Ukraine. The ruling class likes to experiment abroad with strategies of oppression and control, and those deemed effective are applied in the home countries of the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire.  

This, I believe, is going on now to a significant extent. Such subversive agents have found in the past that if they can control these groups, they can create chaos in societies with the result that ordinary people look to Empire sponsored groups that promise order to get rid of the chaos. If successful, ordinary people will support those with the necessary force and phony promises to restore order: armed forces sponsored by the Empire attacking established police forces, or the police and military organizations that the Empire already controls. 

It is necessary to find antidotes to this chaos strategy, infiltration, and surveillance in order to build effective revolutionary organizations. I don't have a recipe for this, but I'm sure that activists can create their own given enough time--but time is in short supply. All I recommend is that any effective strategy must include real democratic principles and practices whether in activist organizations or in nations like Belarus. With the latter accomplished--and it is a major feat--an effective activist group must continue to devise methods to thwart surveillance. All of these tasks would have been much easier decades ago; but now, although much more difficult, it is imperative and in a short time. Perhaps the latest stunt, the covid-19 pandemic, promulgated by the ruling class has awaken activists sufficiently that they can accomplish these tasks in the time remaining for homo sapiens on planet Earth.

• No Going Back: It’s All Got to Change by Graham Peebles from CounterPunch. My commentary follows: 
  

Yes, it has all got to change, but what are the changes? However, this idea of necessary change represents progress for individuals of the human species. Hopefully, opinion makers--and that should be all of us--will finally recognize that we must change the economic system which has allowed another ruling class to destroy our planet's ecosystem on which we all depend. I'm convinced it is too late to save our species and so many others, but it is certainly worth the effort. And, another Kennedy wants "our democracy back", but this "democracy" is a fake version that capitalists have constructed to fool us. (We can't expect the Kennedy clan to have all the answers.) Now this fake democracy is apparently being questioned if Donald Monaco is representative of the young generation. Can we construct a real democracy before our time as a human species comes to an end? That is the question. Not because it will save us, but because it is right! And, the human species is perfectly capable of doing what is right, for a change.

• OffG at Trafalgar Square by Sam May from Off-Guardian. My commentary follows:

Many people in major cities across the world are fed up with the hysteria over the covid-19 pandemic, which appears to be engineered by employed agents of the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire, and they are holding mass demonstrations to protest the severe policies that various nations have implemented. The author objects to some views about other issues that were included in these protest demonstrations: 

I think keeping a narrow focus on the issue is important at the moment and unfortunately some of the speakers raised points that were irrelevant or self-contradictory or just pure speculation. 

I heard declarations from Piers Corbyn and others that the virus wasn’t real or is virtually harmless juxtaposed with claims it’s actually caused by 5G and is part of a bid to kill us all. Well, which is it? Because it can’t be both.

Maybe the author misunderstood some speakers or the latter did not make their views clear. In any case, I think it is appropriate to bring other issues to the fore because the capitalist ruling classes have demonstrated throughout their several hundred years of history that they are perfectly capable of pushing products or technology that is harmful to our and/or the planet's health if they can make a profit off of them (and thus create more power with which to impose their self-rewarding policies on the world).

• Is the UN Preparing for the “Second Covid Lockdown”? Oppressive Measures Worldwide, Obedience and Acceptance… by Peter Koenig from Global Research.

We know by now that nothing of this, masks, “cases / infections”, quarantine, lockdown, vaccination, or any other repressive measure have anything to do with covid. They are means and instruments for the New World Order (NWO) to “train” the population for total obedience and control by the invisible super power, or deep dark state. WHO plays a key role in this nefarious plans, as it still is regarded by most people and governments as an authority, as far as world health is concerned which sadly, it has ceased to be decades ago.

• The Carney/Freeland Green Reset Shapes Canada’s ‘New Normal’ by Mathew Ehret from Strategic Culture Foundation. (Note: This is a report and analysis of the events after the "Great Reset" project was adopted by the Empire's Deep State back in June.) My commentary and analysis follows:

I missed this article when it was published online last week largely because I thought it was about Canadians and their issues. But on another website this morning I was convinced that Ehret was addressing not only a parochial Canadian issue, but an issue that worries the transnational capitalist ruling class that governs the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire. Canada is an integral part of the Empire, and this reports on events after the Empire's leaders adopted the "Great Reset" project. This project is mainly designed to stop the Empire's threat from China and its New Silk Road project (aka Belt and Road Initiative) that many nations have already signed onto, including some European nations. However, there several other problems that the transnational ruling capitalist class is confronting, and the current covid-19 pandemic is the chosen method to deal with all of these concerns. It is evident that I am departing from Ehret's formulation which cites Carny and Freeland as the main actors pushing this "Great Reset". But most all, I firmly reject his main conclusion: 

If the world is truly as closed, finite and entropic as the misanthropic minds of an Oxford-trained technocrat like Mark Carney, Chrystia Freeland or David Attenborough, then this sort of post-COVID world order would admittedly be the way to go. 

Our planet is overburdened by capitalist operations which has resulted in over-population, but it is obvious that our, or any, planet has finite resources and environmental limits which no species can exceed. Thus, we can only conclude that Ehret agrees that the "Great Reset" project and capitalism are the best methods/systems that humans can design.  

It is no secret that the Empire is worried about the challenge that independent nations, such as China, Russia, and Iran are posing for their dominance in our overburdened planet. However, they are worried about several other issues: over- population, the unsustainability of the operations under the existing capitalist system, the financial quagmire that they find themselves in, and excessive burdens posed by "useless eaters" such as old and lame people on their nation's treasuries. I firmly believe that the present covid-19 crisis, whether engineered by Empire agents or not (likely it was), has resulted in the "Great Reset" project which is designed to deal with all the above problems. 

It is obvious that the Empire's transnational capitalist ruling class is not concerned about all the onerous effects that their project will impose on workers, but the members are only concerned with all of their problems, and number one is China. It is my opinion that they are using this covid-19 crisis as cover for all of their problems. Using this crisis as cover permits them to impose all kinds of restrictions on their populations which in normal times would be illegal and unconstitutional.

The USA could not afford such a program due to the fact that they are engaged all over the world with occupations, invasions, and subversions.)

Long time followers of my website know that I have resigned to the position that the climate crisis is now irreversible. But I and all other animals and species will fight to the death to survive. And, that is what I am doing by continuing this website. 

Guy McPherson, a retired scientist who also believes that the crisis is irreversible, continues living with the notion that "only love remains" by which he means living in the present and deepening the connection with other people in our lives. That is the solution that he and others of the upper-middle-class can have that is not available to those of the working class. The latter face homelessness, despair of loss of loved ones and friends, extreme discomfort, and likely death. 

• CNN Proclaims National Panic Day as Rally of 500,000 (!) Bikers in South Dakota Linked to a Whooping 22 Additional Test Positives by Harmeet Kaur from Anti-Empire. (Note: They reproduce a CNN article to lampoon it.)
  

• Has the post-Covid future already been decided? by Simon Marcus from Spiked (Britain). (My reaction: The answer is "yes" because the Davos crowd is the transnational capitalist ruling class of the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire. They are the "deciders".)

• People Who Are in Denial About Coronavirus by Eric Zuesse from Strategic Culture Foundation. My commentary follows:
  

Zuesse in this essay reveals his basic support for our class structured society by affirming his commitment to the way the ruling class that is imposing its draconian policies on entire nations. He does this by describing the opposition to be laissez faire or libertarian and the government policies as "socialistic" or "(legally enforced governmental policies)". Then he goes on to cite statistics that have been challenged by skeptics of ruling class policies. Zuesse has no idea what socialism is because he has been trained ("educated") to believe the social-welfare policies in past capitalist societies (like under FDR's administration) were "socialistic". 

The current "pandemic" is beneficial in the sense that it forces people of varying nominal political views to finally affirm their basic commitment to authoritarianism or genuine democracy. The latter position needs some elucidation in this era of authoritarianism or fascism (its capitalist version).  

Democracy, that is, genuine democracy, means that all people have been given access to positions of authority. Authoritarianism means that only some of the people will be "sufficiently knowledgeable" to determine the policies that will be imposed on others. Democracy means that all people will have equal access to education, health, work, and other institutions to support their well-being. Such equal access is counter to the capitalist system which facilitates the concentration of wealth and, therefore, power. The basis of capitalist societies is private ownership of the economy, and is obviously forbidden in socialist societies. Thus, capitalism inevitably results in class structured societies that are riven with class conflicts. History has demonstrated in capitalist societies ownership, and therefore, control of economic property are in the hands of a ruling class which inevitably results in greater and greater concentration of wealth, therefore power, in fewer and fewer hands. This inevitably leads to fascism, that is, government controlled by a tiny ruling class who impose greater and greater authoritarian methods to impose their control over the rest of societies.

The great mass of people have societal values which help to insure policies of equal access to education and free, independent media to inform people. Contrast this with rule by the self-serving capitalist class, the owners of economic property. Their values are constrained by what is good for their families or extended families. (Recall Margaret Thatcher's comment on this.)  

All ruling classes have historically justified their privileged position by self-serving justifications: they are wiser and more educated, therefore they are entitled to rule over the rest of the populations. It is also frequently observed that they justify all of their policies by claiming to be a "democracy". Censorship and propaganda are frequently used to prevent the rest of the population knowing what they are really doing.  

This is all obvious to genuine socialists; but to many supporters of class rule, it is not obvious. They try hard to disguise their political views. In the case of Zuesse and many others, they pretend to be critical of existing society; but "when push comes to shove" (def.), they support capitalist rule and will engage in all sorts of fake arguments to justify their views.

• RFK Jr. Talks with Ron Paul: ‘Do Not Trust the Medical or National Security Establishment’ from 21st Century Wire. 

(Note: The post introduces the main characters, Ron Paul and Robert Kennedy, Jr. and supplies this nearly 40 minute interview. Kennedy, with his encyclopedic knowledge about the important questions Paul asked, tends to use up all the time in the interview with his detailed knowledge. Paul has to cut him off in order to finish his questions. 

Paul is a classic American libertarian in that his political orientation of  national capitalism, but it is an outmoded (by neoliberalism) ideology that was quite fashionable up until WWII. Since then the neoliberalism of transnational capitalists, that rule the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire, see the whole world "as their oyster" to develop the way they want (to increase their wealth and power) without inference from political party or any nation. American libertarians see the government as a threat to their laissez faire ideology and do not recognize any entity above the government, such as the Deep State. They share this view with many anarchists. The far left was purged from the American political scene shortly after WWII as a part of the drive to establish the Deep State's Empire. This purge of the "old left" was very well described by Bruce Lerro.)

• Dr Lee Merritt: Dismantling the Official Lies of the COVID Crisis from 21st Century Wire. (My reaction: Did you know that the convention going on in Las Vegas was Doctors for Disaster Preparedness? No? You would have thought that this would have been reported by media corporations during this "pandemic". However, I didn't understand why the background on the YouTube video was made up of images of revolutionaries who fought against ruling classes. This looks to me like subliminal brainwashing. The post qualifies as a best post.) 

• COVID-19 Vaccines Could Become Mandatory. Here’s How It Might Work by Joe Martino from Collective Evolution.
  

• Exclusive: Behind the Making of Plandemic 2 featuring a discussion of Plandemic 2 between Ben Swann, CEO of ISE.Media and Mikki Willis, the director of the films, Plandemic 1 and 2. My comments follow:

I watched the film Plandemic 2 last night and was impressed with the professional quality of the film and its clear inferences about the "unnatural" development of this covid-19 pandemic. I still don't know if I will invest in this company that is behind the promotion of Willis's film. As you know if you have been following my website, I don't believe in capitalist means of fighting the now concentrated wealth and power of the capitalist ruling class. But ISE.Media wants to bring opposing sound views to this issue that the ruling class constantly seeks to suppress. (Incidentally, I did not post Plandemic 1, which was devoted to Dr. Judy Mikovits, because I posted four previous interviews that various people did with Mikovits.) This is a best post.

• REVEALED: UK Officials Inflated COVID Hospital Numbers at Height of ‘Pandemic’ from 21st Century Wire.
  

• Are You Ready for the “No One Could Have Known” Routine? by Thomas Harrington from Off-Guardian. (My reaction: This is worse than even Harrington argues. The lies we've been told has been going on in this dramatic fashion since WWII.)
  

• As COVID-1984 Accelerates Bill Gates Blames ‘Freedom’ For Spread of the Virus by Avatar Dewey Fernfield from The Duran. This post features Spiro Skouras via YouTube elaborating and commenting on this effort for all citizens residing in the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire to submit to the capitalist ruling classes' vaccination program.

• Exclusive Interview: Ben Swann and Plandemic Creator Mikki Willis from ISE. (Note: Swann interviews Willis who is the producer, director, and writer of films, "Plandemic 2: Indoctornation" (censored by Facebook) as well as "Plandemic 1" (censored by YouTube). (Note: "Indoctornation" is a play on the word "indoctrination". Notice the entry of the latter film on Wikipedia. I think this qualifies for the "best posts" category.)

• Company Set to Manufacture COVID-19 Vaccine for US Intentionally Sold Faulty Biodefense Products by Whitney Webb from The Last American Vagabond.

• What is the WHO? – Questions For Corbett #066 featuring James Corbett essentially arguing via video that the WHO of the United Nations has been subverted into policies favoring Big Pharma. (My reaction: Who'd a thunk-it?)
  

• On Covid-19 And Authoritarian Abuses by Australian Caitlin Johnstone from her weblog. (Note: You may be also interested in this post.) My brief commentary follows:

In this post she is obviously frustrated by all the verbal abuse she has been getting via Twitter and other social media from people who have succumbed to the hysteria that media corporations have been filling the airways with. In her home country of Australia, the citizens have been experiencing probably the most draconian measures ever (and likely the worst in the world) from government authorities over this covid-19 pandemic.  

This is the result of many years of brainwashing via disinformation and censorship spewed by capitalist's control of media, education, and entertainment in which they have scrubbed out real history and substituted self-serving propaganda and entertaining distractions. I fear the worst.

• What the Belarusian opposition offers by Timoschuk from The Duran.
  

• U.S. Judge Urges Supreme Court to End U.S. Police State It Imposes by Eric Zuesse from Strategic Culture Foundation. My commentary follows:

The social-democratic Zuesse must have had a very difficult time in dealing with this subject. I note that he references Jim Crow laws only once. This is much before the FDR administration that he so idolizes as an ideal America. He writes: 

The U.S. Constitution is by now just a string of words. America’s Founders are dead, gone, and no longer really even an influence. That’s the reality. 

In its original form the Constitution when it was written by "America's Founders" (often reverentially referred to as "Founding Fathers") favored the rich property owners. Contrast the latter document with the Declaration of Independence also written by "America's Founders" when they wanted citizens to take up arms for their cause of independence from Britain. Quite a difference, indeed! You see, the British government put up obstacles for the "Founding Fathers" in the form of taxes and restrictions on enterprises that would compete with British manufacturers.  

The "Founding Fathers" were overwhelmingly property owners of slaves who needed the latter to provide the labor to make them rich, never intended to include the "Bill of Rights". This was only forced upon them by citizens of the 13 colonies. And indeed, they never expected their militias and police forces to abide by the Bill of Rights. Police forces are the last defense against the people who are feared by all ruling classes. After nearly 150 years, this ruling class used the capitalist system to accumulate ownership and control over nearly all of the USA and much of the world. The crimes committed here by our masters are multiplied by at least a factor of 10 throughout much of the world.

Thus, I recommend only reading the first two paragraphs of the essay. The rest is absolute social-democratic rubbish.

• OBAMA Says "Nobody Above the Law"! featuring Jimmy Dore commenting (via YouTube) on Barack Obama's speech at a recent Democratic convention. (My reaction: He only satirizes Obama for the lies he told at the convention and during his presidency. With all the lies people have been subject to since WWII, it is no wonder why so many people are questioning the current covid-19 information that ruling class media hysterically spreads!)

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.

• Plandemic II: Indoctornation from ISE. (Note: Because I don't want to take your time to listen to excessive ramblings of commentators and analysts, I rarely post videos over one hour. The videos I post must give important insights on current major problems.) My commentary follows below:

This is a 1hr and 15min video that sums up numerous points made on my website that concentration wealth, that the capitalist system promotes, creates enormous private power that overwhelms and corrupts not only industries, but governments particularly within the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire. In the 21st century this power mostly takes the form of control of media, that is, the news and information you receive by media corporations that ruling classes control. The latter also control careers and jobs which sustain families within the nations of the Empire. In the case of the current covid-19 virus, this power has influenced even UN agencies to collude with the Empire's ruling class concentrated wealth.

• Lebanon: Pearl on the New Silk Road or Zone of Dark Age Chaos by Matthew Ehret from Strategic Culture Foundation. 

• Here's Why the "Impossible" Economic Collapse Is Unavoidable by Charles Hugh Smith from his weblog. (My reaction: His argument makes a lot of sense to me. I continue to see that this shutdown of parts of the economy by the ruling class as "desperate" venture because it carries extremely high risk to their rule. This together with their use of fake news, propaganda, and censorship practiced by their media corporations, I see as indicating deep frustration and desperation. Hopefully, they will not be desperate enough to opt for a nuclear war conflagration.)

• What Will Not Recover: Government by Jeffrey A. Tucker from American Institute of Economic Research. (My reaction: Even doubts about this risky venture comes from the writers for the ruling class. Of course, the latter regard the government is some separate entity from the capitalist ruling class. Because the latter "own" all three branches of their government, they control it.)

• The Specter of a Fascist Coup by Trump Haunts the U.S. – There’s Worse to Worry About by Roger D. Harris from Mint Press News. (My reaction: Harris mostly represents fascism as "jack-boot fascism" that plagued humans in certain countries before the new US, Anglo, Zionist Empire took control of most of the world. Since WWII this Empire crafted a new version (neo-fascism?) that emphasized control of careers/jobs and cleverly designed propaganda/censorship in addition to jack-boot fascism.

• Lockdowns, Coronavirus, and Banks: Following the Money by Prof. Anthony Hall from American Herald Tribune. (This lengthy article obviously qualifies for a "best posts" category.) My rather brief commentary follows:

This Canadian author and retired professor zeros in at the "reset" program that our billionaire masters have launched with the bailouts of major banks last fall and the current ongoing covid-19 pandemic. He illustrates, far better than I can, the arrogance of our masters in the capitalist ruling classes. They have launched this reset program filled with an excess of glowing promises, but what underlies this is a concern for their unsustainable system of capitalism and the dire prospect that their power and wealth will end with the impending global warming catastrophe. They entertain fantasies of high technologies that they will control to further control us ordinary humans as well as contribute to their wealth and power. Meanwhile, the professor catalogs their recent history starting with the elimination of the Glass-Steagall Act of 1999, 9/11 psy-ops, the wars on Muslims who are the enemies of Israel, the Israeli lobby influence, etc., and all the financial and political corruption that served to increase their wealth and power at the expense of ordinary humans. Why the latter evinces any trust in our overlords is a mystery to me.

• Pull Back the Curtain on Efforts to Kill the U.S. Postal Service and Out Pops Koch Money by Pam and Russ Martens of Wall Street on Parade. (My reaction: It is not only the money of the Koch brothers (David has died) that are involved.--it is most money of the ruling class.

• Weaponized Social Media Fuels "Youth" Protests by Tony Cartalucci from ATN (AltThaiNews). My commentary follows:

Is the capitalist US/Anglo/Zionist Empire using corporate social media to stir up and guide protests in Belarus, Thailand, and even now in the USA? I don't know yet if this phenomenon is essentially happening in Belarus and the USA, but I'm sure agents of the ruling classes are involved. We'll probably know for sure about Belarus when snipers are brought in, as happened in 2014 in Ukraine, to ensure victory for the fascist forces of the Empire.

The transnational capitalist ruling classes, who have homes in many nations throughout their Empire, think nothing of using their effective weapons against their oppressed people in their home countries. Remember they use well-paid careers of highly trained professionals to implement these programs against the real interests of working classes. The perfect antidote to this is to ensure that real democratically elected leaders are responsive to the demands of their supporters and not the capitalist ruling classes of the Empire.
