This morning I only got through to 1/3 of the 50 websites that I normally peruse to select articles for your greater understanding of the world we live in. I've simply run out time. I was so fascinated by the many articles I found--there are several "best posts" among them. I will start you off with something light: a satirical comedian's take on censorship.

• What It’s Like Getting Censored on YouTube featuring comedian JP Sears. 

• How an “Act of God” Pandemic is Destroying the West by Michael Hudson from his weblog. (I neglected to credit an activist for alerting me to this article.)
  

• Julian Assange trial: the mask of Empire has fallen by Pepe Escobar posted on A bird's eye view of the Vineyard. 

• NATO’s Slow-Motion Blitzkrieg Eastward by Ulson Gunnar from New Eastern Outlook.

• Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) Statement About the Situation in Belarus issued via this Russian press office and authored by S.N. Ivanov and posted on "The Saker".  

• BLM's War on the Deplorables by Mike Whitney from The Unz Review. A best post.
  

• Hyperinflation, Fascism and War: How the New World Order May Be Defeated Once More by Matthew Ehret from "The Saker". (Note: I didn't read all of this rather lengthy article, but I will. I was so impressed by his knowledge of history during this period about which I have read widely. I need to followup with subjects and books he suggested. A best post.)

• New Technologies, TikTok, Competition, and “Free” and Human Labor: An Interview with Economist Paula Bach. This article was posted on Left Voice. (Note: The article was translated from a transcript in Spanish and found on a Spanish website. She has an exceptional knowledge about this important subject. I found at times that I didn't understand all of her references and arguments, but I learned a lot. Maybe you can do better. You will need to know about "unicorn companies" This is another best post.)

• If the PCR Test Is Unreliable – Why Are Health Officials Demanding the Public Be Tested? by Derrick Broze from The Last American Vagabond.
  

• New Pentagon-Google Partnership Suggests AI Will Soon Be Used to Diagnose Covid-19 by Whitney Webb from her website Unlimited Hangout. Her research led her to ask further questions which reveal her doubts about the intentions of our masters in the ruling capitalist class:

Notably, the “solutions” offered to many of the health-care institutions that have been hacked have come from government-promoted yet opaque groups that are deeply tied to US and allied intelligence agencies as well as Silicon Valley. These “volunteer groups,” such as “the CTI League” and “the Cyber Alliance to Defend Our Healthcare,” offer their services for free but, notably, gain access to the patient data they are tasked with guarding. Are such groups, given their deep ties to Silicon Valley and intelligence agencies, helping acquire even more data to satisfy the Silicon Valley and national-security state’s endless hunger for more and more data?

• The Library of Alexandria is on Fire featuring James Corbett of The Corbett Report. (Note: It is obvious that most of human knowledge has been either transferred onto the internet or nowadays accessed only on the internet. But this presents special important problems if the gateways to access this information are "owned" and/or controlled by powerful privately owned entities. Under capitalism these entities are corporations. After his introduction by Richard Gage, founder and president of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, Corbett develops an important argument that under the internet corporations, owners of search engines and social media which provide access to information (like Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) can "burn", or make hard to find, or alter completely (Tower of Babel), information. He uses the burning of the Alexandria Library in 48 BC by Roman troops as a metaphor for the censorship of knowledge that powerful capitalist ruling classes of today do not like (the persecution of Julian Assange is a prime example of a supplier of forbidden information). He cites a number of examples of this growing trend by internet corporations, and offers sound advice to others on how to preserve real information under existing conditions.)

• 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.)

• Reconsidering the Presidential Election by "The Saker" (Andre Raevsky) from The Unz Review. My commentary follows: 

It looks like Raevsky (and PCR--Paul Craig Roberts) has fallen for the chaos strategy (see my first post on September 4). I think the dominant section of the ruling class is using the strategy to stir-up more chaos, but they have no intention of following through with their threats. Let me explain. 

The capitalist ruling class, or the dominant section of it which now consists of big financiers, deeply resents this upstart as president, but they value their acquisition of wealth more. Their wealth depends on corporate profits so that the latter can pay back the loans that financiers (via The Fed) have so generously supplied them with. This more realistic scenario needs stability, and chaos following the election cannot ensure that. Thus, they will accept the election results even though Trump is the winner--unless they have gone stark raving mad, which is unlikely--but this result is looking more doubtful as we approach the November elections. During the first four years of his administration the dominant section of the ruling class demonstrated that they can work with Trump to accomplish many of their goals.

Of course, for ordinary people the choice is, and has always been under capitalist rule, between the lesser of two evils. Why choose? Simply withhold your vote entirely from either presidential candidate and all of the candidates sponsored by the two parties. The only real solution is revolution!

• Unipolar Spin: Why Imperial Leftists Vilify Russia’s Social Democracy by Joaquin Flores from Strategic Culture Foundutation. (Note: There is one glaring typographical error in this essay: the phrase "only to hand it to Moscow for now particular reason." should read "only to hand it to Moscow for no particular reason.")  My reaction: I don't agree with all of his arguments blaming anarchists and pseudo-leftists for the misinformation about Russia, but I totally agree with his description of Russia, the influence of money that has corrupted journalists over the years, and the CIA's infiltration and subsequent control of media corporations. The CIA left journalists with two choices: either you parrot our line and you enjoy a comfortable standard of living (including financing a family) or you earn substandard wages (and not having the resources to raise a family) working for an alternative and independent media organization. This is a very challenging choice to make!

• The Social Dilemma film from Thought Maybe. My critical review of the 1 hour and 33 minute film follows: 
  

The film, Social Dilemma, a production by Netflix corporation, begins with an opening quote by Sophocles "Nothing vast enters the life of mortals without a curse." and ends with the statement "Let's have a conversation about fixing it.". Nothing in between in the more than 133 minutes of the film addresses the fundamental and critical problem that needs to be "fixed" (or replaced)--capitalism. Various technology experts in the film casually mention that the present technology of social media serves to persuade people to buy products, for ulterior political aims, and to manipulate people to create more profits for the giant technology corporations. But that's it. They obviously cannot connect these effects to the system of capitalism.

Throughout the film we follow the life of a social media addict and his behaviors that are affected by this addiction. But, mostly he does like most addicts do: succumb to his addiction by being distant from his family, inattention at school, and poor self-esteem. The film provides disturbing information that social media corporations like Facebook, Google, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, etc. are causing, and the many adverse effects on mostly young people: increasing suicide rates among young users, poor performance at school, deleterious effects on family cohesion, etc.

The message is clear for the audience of the film: technology is the problem and those who have created it need to fix it. These technologists recommend a few specific fixes such as greater regulation of social media corporations, parents limiting the time allowed for young people to use social media, etc., but nothing related to the underlying system of capitalism.

To be sure, not only social media has caused serious problems, but the whole internet technology as directed by capitalist bosses has caused serious problems. What these technologist-speakers fail to uncover is the man-made system of capitalism that has brought this "curse" to societies, instead the film focuses on the devastating effects of social media on mostly young people, and methods to "fix" them so that they can reduce the harmful effects. 

These technologists-speakers are the perfect product of the ruling capitalist class whose control of every institution--education, media, entertainment, etc.--has ensured that they remain oblivious to the underlying system of capitalism that controls the use of social media to promote an increase profits of capitalists and their control of society.

Back in the 1980s technologists were initially fascinated with its promise to enrich people's lives by making access to information more convenient, connecting people instantly to friends and loved ones separated by hundreds of miles, and managing their daily affairs so conveniently. They initially saw this technology as simply "so cool" to be involved with. In the early years, they accomplished much and the future looked promising.

However, the ruling capitalist class began to see that this technology could be harnessed to reap greater profits, provide greater surveillance on potential troublemakers, and enable 24/7 propaganda to ensure that their subjects receive the “right” information about what was happening in the world. They slowly, but deliberately, set about to develop this technology to serve these interests, and Silicon Valley took off. Now that they have introduced artificial intelligence (AI) to radically increase the harmful effects on young people, the effects of social media look frightening. 

Meanwhile, as social media technology developed, the ruling class continued the ongoing indoctrination of capitalist values and discouraged the belief that any other system was even possible. Thus, these former young innovative technologists, like all Americans, remained naively committed to capitalism as they got older. The indoctrination encouraged the belief that no other system was even possible. This film produced by Netflix corporation serves to ensure that these technology "fixers" and the general audience remain in ignorance.

I have read widely about WWII and can verify his history of the war. This history is largely unknown to Americans because they have been so subject to the Empire's propaganda about this war, and all the other wars since.)

• America’s Current Jobs ‘Great Depression’ by Jack Rasmus from his weblog.
  

• Why The ‘Journalists’ Don’t Like Julian by Jeremy Salt from American Herald Tribune. My commentary follows:

The essay barely skims the surface of what is wrong about journalism as practiced in mostly capitalist countries. The author's very treatment of this subject betrays his bias toward capitalism and the capitalist ruling class. His views are summed up in two sentences near the end of the essay: 

... journalists have power, the power and the money of the institution behind them. Assange has no institution behind him. Indeed, the institutions are all against him. A media which used him up has abandoned him.  

This begs the question of what kind of basic "institution [is] behind them" (the critics of Assange, that is, most journalists)? The fundamental institution behind most journalists is capitalism and the morality of capitalism that Margaret Thatcher, a total sociopath, revealed to the embarrassment of her masters in the ruling class:   

...there is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families.

Constrast this moral code with that of Caitlin Johnstone.

Upper-middle-class people who serve the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire are rewarded for on-the-job behaviors that supports the moral code illustrated by brainwashed Thatcher, but are unemployed if they behave according to Johnstone's moral code. Unfortunately, most journalists conform to their boss's expectations which conform to the ruling class's moral code because they need to protect their well-paid careers to support their families. Thus, all institutions (education, media, and entertained) controlled by capitalists insure their rule by indoctrinating their working classes according to capitalist morality.

• The coronavirus conspiracy: What did they know, and when did they know it? by Andre Damon from World Socialist Web Site. (Note: You can read another article from this website for further details.) My commentary follows:

The authors carefully follow the logic of events regarding the Deep State's version of the pandemic (as reported by the ruling class's control major media corporations and the CDC), but adhere to the statistics of the CDC (Center of Disease Control) regarding the victims of the covid-19 illness. This website's uniform coverage of the events related to the covid-19 pandemic by staff members of this website appears have been influenced by their leader, David North. Thus, their coverage of the pandemic conforms to the hysterically exaggerated reaction of the Deep State, the directors of the ruling capitalist class, who used the pandemic to spread fear and accomplish radical changes in the economy known as The Great Reset". As I wrote on August 27 following the post entitled "The Carney/Freeland Green Reset Shapes Canada’s ‘New Normal’": 

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.

No doubt the intelligence officers, who take their orders from the Deep State, and who briefed Trump and Congressional leaders, likely grossly exaggerated the threat in their reports in order to instill fear in them. There is little doubt that the virus is highly contagious to people who have compromised immune systems, but to shut down entire economies is an extraordinary reaction. (Edited this last sentence on Sept. 12, 10 Am CT, to add greater accuracy.)

• Belarusian President Lukashenko Says IMF Offered A Billion USD Bribe to Impose Covid-19 Lockdown by Joaquin Flores from FRN (Fort Russ News which is based in Serbia). My reaction: "This fact can be verified using most search engines." I did this and am satisfied that the report is factual: see this, this, and this. This report is another illustration of the use of money to influence how people behave; and in this case, regarding a nation's leader. In many cases, the influence of money applies to politicians who need money to finance their candidacy in government elections, professional people who have careers to protect to support a comfortable lifestyle, and workers who want to protect their jobs that are needed for their, and their families', very survival. Concentrated wealth is promoted under capitalism. The system often leads to decisions that harm most people, but benefit their ruling classes. The system needs to be abolished and substituted for one that promotes egalitarian and thoroughly democratic societies. 

• UK’s MSM has slavishly obeyed the govt over Covid like the docile arm of a despotic state. I know, because I was part of it by Matt Drake from RT. My reaction: Of course the same obedient-like behavior of ordinary people applies to most governments fronted by ruling classes on our planet Earth. I think that this phenomenon is a result of roughly 10,000 years of domination of ruling classes that they have obtained through various forms of violence. This experience has engendered in ordinary people a belief in the superiority of their masters, and that their "superiors" have innate abilities that we ordinary people do not have.  Many of the upper-middle-class, whose support is needed for the current ruling class of capitalists to exist, also are convinced of this through their socialization. Such propaganda is pervasive in class-ridden societies.

• Let’s Give Trump Some Credit—On Labor Day He Threw Down the Gauntlet to the Corrupt Military Brass by Paul Craig Roberts from his weblog. My reaction: What he, who is intensely loyal to capitalism, fails to recognize is that the system of capitalism inevitably produces the use of money to influence decisions.

• No, the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally Didn’t Spawn 250,000 Coronavirus Cases by Elizabeth Nolan Brown from Anti-Empire. (Note: Also see this report.) My reaction: I've recently been to Sioux Falls, South Dakota and discovered their small businesses are thriving--unfortunately their workers enjoy near minimum wages--and their economy is too, to the extent possible for small business enterprises. Such propaganda, laughable or not, is believed by many of those who follow media controlled by the ruling capitalist class.

• Flu is killing more people than Covid19, and has been for months by Kit Knightly from Off-Guardian. 

• DHS Head Chad Wolf Adopts Language of War in Threats Against Portland Protesters by Alan Macleod from Mint Press News. My reaction: Whenever the ruling class is threatened, they respond by the use of force whether Constitutional or not.

• Allegiant Stadium In Vegas to Be America’s First Pro Sports Venue to Open Cashless (from 0:00m to 7:25m) from The Corbett Report. My reaction: This happening, the promotion of digital money, is another benefit, among a number of other benefits to the ruling class derived from their engineered "pandemic crisis".

• 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?

• Anti-Racist Uprising Infiltrated by Extreme-Right Hooligans by Andre Vltchek from New Eastern Outlook. (Note: I apologize to my readers for not posting this very important article in the middle of August.

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.

• COVID-19 Fatality Rate “Worst Miscalculation” in Human History – PhD Student in Epidemiology by Arjun Walia from Collective Evolution. 

• 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.

• Germany Starts Universal Basic Income Trial Giving Some Citizens $1400 A Month For 3 Years by Arjun Walia from Collective Evolution. (My reaction: I can't believe that this is actually happening.

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.)
