America Steeped in Addiction

                                           America, Steeped in Addiction     

“Addiction brings financial and legal problems (property and violent crimes) and increases domestic violence, child abuse, unplanned pregnancies and motor vehicle accidents. Addiction is also highly prevalent among jail and prison inmates and in many instances, played a role in their incarceration. Yet and perhaps this is the most important- if not troubling- finding of all. Only one in ten people with addiction to alcohol and/or drugs report receiving any treatment at all. Compare this to the fact that about 70 percent of people with hypertension or diabetes do receive treatment.” A Blind Eye to Addiction, Lloyd Sederer  https://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/policy-dose/2015/06/01/america-is-neglecting-its-addiction-problem

America is imploding and unraveling by quantum leaps and bounds. By all accounts we are a society in precipitous decline: morally, socially and economically and all these facets are interrelated and interconnected. One of the most telling examples of this decline is the rising rate of addiction among all ethnic, socio-economic and age demographics.
 Addiction is not just relegated to alcohol and illegal drugs. Americans are addicted to a plethora of substances. For example, 61 million Americans are hooked on cigarettes, 16-20 million are addicted to alcohol or abuse it regularly, 15 million smoke marijuana, 2.4 million use cocaine, 600,000 use crack, hundreds of thousands are hooked on heroin, more than 750,000 are methamphetamine users, 1 million use ecstasy and hallucinogens, almost 2 million of our children have used steroids, 4.5 million teens abuse controlled prescription dugs like OxyContin, Ritalin, and Adderall to get high. https://www.centeronaddiction.org/newsroom/op-eds/high-society-how-substance-abuse-ravages-america-and-what-do-about-it
Addiction takes a devastating toll on the social and economic fabric of the country. It is similar to moths and worms eating away at the fibers and weaving of your clothing, eventually the garment falls apart and is no good. For insight into how addiction and substance abuse negatively impacts US culture go to https://www.addictioncenter.com/addiction/addiction-statistics/,  and http://www.investmentwatchblog.com/were-losing-the-war-on-drugs-its-a-symptom-of-worse-ills/ .
Addictions of all types are destroying this country but this is neither new nor unique to this generation. History reveals addictions; moral rot, hubris and overreach bring empires to their knees not external foes! When Europeans arrived on theses shores, they found millions of indigenous people who introduced them to tobacco. Over the centuries the nicotine in tobacco became addictive to generations of humanity. But the Europeans also brought their addiction to imported sugar, raised it here and exported it back to Europe.
The British brought their addiction to tea (and caffeine) with them when they invaded this hemisphere. Tea was originally cultivated in China in ancient times and first introduced to Britain in the 1600’s by the East India Trading Company (aka English East India Company and later Governor and Company of Merchants of London Trading into the East Indies) a monopoly trading company that in addition to trading in tea, spices, silk and cotton, also enslaved Africans mostly from East Africa and Madagascar and they traded in opium from India.
The East India Company was a forerunner of today corporations. They attempted to force the Chinese to accept trade in opium but the Emperor refused. The Europeans set up smuggling rings that the Chinese attempted to bring to an end. This brought on the Opium Wars (1839-1842 and 1856-1860) that totally defeated the Chinese (the Europeans has superior weapons and ships) and busted down the barriers to European “trade” in China. The Chinese never forgot their humiliating defeat at the hands of the Westerners.
The Colonists in the US British colonies became addicted to the sugar and tobacco grown here, the trading companies exported overseas as well as the tea the British imported into the colonies (remember the Boston Tea Party, the false flag operation against England by the colonists?). Later the British elites made huge profits selling opium around the world.
Today what we are seeing and experiencing in the US is KARMA. Just as the East India Company smuggled opium and traded addictive tea, coffee, tobacco and humans around the world (as did other European trading companies), today the US CIA is a global trafficker in illicit drugs and a major money laundering partner with the giant banks. This nexus of drugs and money is driving much of the US implosion and debilitating addictions. https://www.corbettreport.com/the-cia-and-the-drug-trade/ , https://www.globalresearch.ca/the-spoils-of-war-afghanistan-s-multibillion-dollar-heroin-trade/91
Its ironic most of the Fentanyl that is killing more and more US citizens comes from China (is this payback for the Opium Wars)! https://www.axios.com/china-fentanyl-opioids-opioid-crisis-drug-dealers-1c30566e-20aa-41e4-bea0-1563e7fcc5c8.html  This is merely the tip of the iceberg; addiction and drug overdoses in the US are increasing. http://time.com/5220372/drug-overdose-deaths-cdc/ https://www.kff.org/other/state-indicator/opioid-overdose-deaths-by-raceethnicity/?currentTimeframe=0&sortModel=%7B"colId":"Location","sort":"asc"%7D
 Now that white people are suffering addiction at increasing rates, it no longer has social stigma. Addiction is no longer propagated as a moral failing or character flaw requiring incarceration; now it is seen as a sickness needing medical and therapeutic treatment, empathy and community support! They didn’t say that when drugs were being dumped in communities of color, while the police looked the other way and their most vulnerable residents were being arrested and incarcerated in the bogus War on Drugs started by Richard Nixon!
Alas even treating addiction (as opposed to locking people up) which in most cases is merely a symptom, is not a comprehensive cure. Until the underlying issues and causative factors are addressed, dealt with and healed, the US addiction crisis will continue to exist and escalate.

Lessons From History


   
                                       

                                                     From The Ramparts
                                                  Junious Ricardo Stanton
                                                       Lessons from History

 "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." George Santayana

In George Orwell’s novel 1984 the main protagonist Winston Smith works in an agency tasked with rewriting and altering history so the ruling party can control the narrative as it lords it over the masses in their totalitarian society. Most perceptive people would agree that with each passing day the US becomes more and more like the dystopian society depicted in Orwell’s 1984.
In the US the corporate mind control apparatus, six giant conglomerates own and control almost all of the electronic and print media and much of what is on the Internet https://www.morriscreative.com/6-corporations-control-90-of-the-media-in-america/  . They constantly bombard us with what they want us to believe and accept. It is brainwashing and mind entrainment at a quantum level George Orwell never even dreamed of.
I call it promulgating the Three B’s: believe, buy and behave. The media programs us to see the world in certain ways and to think any other interpretation is the work of “conspiracy theorists”, rubes or tin foil hat wearers.  The media presents models they want us to emulate, imitate and be like and of course their advertising arm showers us with lies and manipulates our psyche so we buy gadgets and gismos we don’t really need.
Just like in 1984, the corporate media (our real life/real time version of the Ministry of Truth) scrubs history, programs us to have short attention spans and limited understanding or recollection of past events all designed to make us malleable to their values, world view and their agenda of personal and global hegemony. Couple this 27/7 mind control with a failing education system that presents and reinforces a fake reality and false history and we have a clueless populous. This is designed to make us mindless pawns and zombies easily manipulated and duped into doing their bidding and fighting amongst ourselves while the 1%ers remain in power, harvest us then kick us to the curb.
Step back from the mind control machine’s bogus narrative about Russiagate and their obsessive focus on Trump’s personality (which they didn’t do to Hillary, Obama or George W. Bu$h) and look at the policies of Trump and the 1%’s minions in Congress. They recently enacted massive cut taxes that even they admit will raise the national debt over a trillion dollars while simultaneously increasing military spending (the US already outspends all the world put together on Military funding) further increasing the national debt!  They are imposing economic sanctions, engaging in currency and trade wars against Syria, Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, and Venezuela and now they are threatening Turkey. Trump raised tariffs against Canada and Mexico and threatened to do the same against the EU!
Don’t they know trade disputes can lead to military conflict? The Opium Wars were the result of the West’s reaction to China’s Qing Dynasty shutting opium imports into China from India and because the Chinese refused to trade for inferior Western goods opting only for payment in silver. The British and later the French, British (and US in a limited role) waged war against and defeated China so they could open China as a lucrative market for opium and Western goods! https://www.nam.ac.uk/explore/opium-war-1839-1842
 America’s 1940’s policies towards Japan: seizing their US assets, embargoing oil and other much needed materials, canceling treaties and trade agreements with a rising industrialized nation that had few indigenous natural resources that was wholly dependent upon imports and trade with other nations which put Japan in an untenable position. Roosevelt’s unwillingness to negotiate with Japan goaded them into military action; action many scholars believe he deliberately did hoping Japan would respond militarily thus giving Roosevelt a rationale to enter WWII!
We are seeing a repeat of this today with Trump imposing crippling sanctions against Russian oil, banking and other facets of its economy, engaging in a tariff tit for tat against China and being bellicose towards other nations and trade blocks like the European Union. Keep in mind; this is just on the economic front. Geopolitically the US is contending with China for access and control of the South China Sea (keep in mind Modern China like Japan in the 1940’s is heavily reliant on oil imports to fuel their growing economy), US puppet NATO is encroaching on Russian borders and the US media’s demonization of Putin and Russia does not bode well for future relations.
As for as North Korea goes, aside from the fact both North and South Korea want normalized relations, the North could easily leverage its trillion dollars in rare minerals and natural resources https://www.quora.com/What-natural-resources-does-North-Korea-have, to secure military protection and partnerships from China and Russia in its negotiations with the US.
So far Russia and China have exhibited restraint, they’ve signed more mutual trade and security agreements between themselves, both are key players in the BRICS economic alliance that offers an alternative to US imperial hegemony and both nations are dumping their holdings of US Treasury Bonds and debt https://money.cnn.com/2018/07/30/investing/russia-us-debt-treasury/index.html , https://www.quora.com/Russia-and-China-are-selling-massive-US-treasury-bonds-Will-this-affect-the-stock-market-if-this-goes-on . How will all this bode for the American Empire?
Here’s another historical fact, when President Herbert Hoover took office in 1929 he inherited a budget surplus, GDP was booming but the economy was taking a downturn. He cut taxes even further (Presidents Harding and Coolidge before him had cut taxes and spending, and paid down the national debt the only time “supply side economics” has ever worked in this country) but the economy was still unraveling. In 1929 the Stock Market crashed and Hoover and Congress increased tariffs massively in 1930. His tax cuts and tariffs exacerbated and possibly prolonged the Great Depression!
Will Trump’s tax cuts, tariffs and trade wars result in an adverse economic consequences or military conflict? Only time will tell, but if we are ignorant of the past, we put ourselves at a severe disadvantage.

Spike Lee's Latest Joint


 
                                             


                                                    From The Ramparts
                                                  Junious Ricardo Stanton
                                                 The Latest Spike Lee Joint

A lot of black folks don’t like Spike Lee’s films because they cover uncomfortable issues and topics they’d rather keep suppressed from consciousness. This is a grave mistake. Martin Luther King Jr once said, “Nothing pains some people more than having to think.” Spike Lee films make you think, that’s for sure. 
My wife and I went to see the latest Spike Lee joint, The BlackkKlansman . Ironically there were more white folks trying to get tickets than Blacks. The first theater we went to, I was informed the film was sold out except for the first two rows in the front where you had to bend your neck to look up at the screen. Most of the people in line ahead of me asking for tickets to see the film were white. We returned home and ordered tickets Online at another theater.
We went to the theater later that afternoon; there were only a handful of Black folks in the audience.  The theater was about half full and most of the patrons were white.
Spike Lee looks at the world through the lens of race (and sometimes class) and this film is no different. It is based upon a true story about a Black man named Ron Stallworth who secured a job as a policeman in the mostly all white Colorado Springs Police Department that was looking to diversify the department.
Once hired Stallworth is assigned to the record room which he finds stifling. He brashly asks the chief for a transfer to undercover. He is initially turned down. Later the Chief comes to him with an offer to do plainclothes surveillance when Stokely Carmichael comes to town to speak at a college event sponsored by the university’s Black Student Union.
I don’t want to give away the plot but that assignment leads to another and Stallworth played by John David Washington (Denzel’s son) offers to go undercover to infiltrate the KKK. His request on the surface seems preposterous. But he convinces the Chief to let him do it and being a resourceful dude Stallworth and his crew pull it off.
Lee juxtaposes the real life facts of Stallworth’s gambit with the racial attitudes of the 1970’s and present day America. Lee’s cinematic eye captures the blatant racism within the Colorado Springs police department, reveals the tension the Black students are feeling as they push for “revolutionary change” in a mostly white environment and observes the Klu Klux Klan’s shift towards mainstream acceptance by its national leader David Duke.
Officer Stallworth is not woke politically. He knows he is Black, he has experienced racism personally prior to and since joining the force, but he is not a radical or a revolutionary. He is just a guy trying to do his job. He knows how to speak “The King’s English” and Black lingo too and when a KKK caller to the police station mistakes him for a white guy, this incident triggers Stallwoth’s idea to infiltrate the Klan.
 Lee captures the tension between Stallworth and Patrice the head of the Black Students played by Laura Harrier. She calls police pigs and believes the system is irredeemably corrupt and racist. Stallworth on the other hand thinks change can be made from the inside. This disparity in philosophies creates a barrier to their relationship which Stallworth tries to develop once he meets her at the university rally.
Obviously Stallworth cannot meet face to face with the Klan members to join them so another police officer named Flip Zimmerman played by Adam Driver (Kylo Ren of The Force Awakes and Last Jedi fame) does all the face to face interactions.
 To add to the film’s emotional tension, Zimmerman is a non practicing Jew, who is now forced to grapple with his own heritage and safety once he joins the hatemongers.
Spike Lee does a masterful job of chronicling the history of the times, the racial attitudes while providing enough comic relief so the viewers don’t become overwhelmed by the weightiness of the subject.
Over the weekend the film did fairly well. It came in at number five. I recommend you see it because this film makes a clear statement about not just the past but what is going on in this country and around the world today.

Good Vibrations



                                                 

                                                    From The Ramparts
                                                   Junious Ricardo Stanton
                                                      Good Vibrations

“The provenance of Cymatics can be traced back at least 1000 years to African tribes who used the taut skin of drums sprinkled with small grains to divine future events. The drum is one of oldest known musical instruments and the effects of sand on a vibrating drumhead have probably been known for millennia.” https://www.tokenrock.com/cymatics/what_is_cymatics/

            Last week I wrote about ways to reconnect, restore harmony and equilibrium using the earth’s natural frequencies to undo the harm and poison of the accelerating electrosmog, radio wave poisoning, and artificial electromagnetic frequencies all around us. I shared information about Schumann’s Resonance the earth’s natural 7.83 Hz frequency and explained how being in tune and resonating with this frequency enhances health and wellbeing. This week I want to share news about a “new” field of study called Cymatics.
            What is Cymatics you ask and why do I keep bringing up these issues no one else is talking about? Cymatics is, “the science of sound made visible It is based on the principle that when sound encounters a membrane such as your skin or the surface of water, it imprints an invisible pattern of energy. In other words, the periodic vibrations in the sound sample are converted and become periodic water ripples, creating beautiful geometric patterns that reveal the once hidden realm of sound. If we could see the sounds around us with our eyes we would see myriads of holographic bubbles, each with a kaleidoscopic-like pattern its surface.” http://www.cymascope.com/cymascope_info.html
Simply put, cymatics is the study of wave vibration. On a much deeper level it is the recognition of the impact of audio frequencies on matter. I’m sharing this information with you because no one else is going to. Information on the negative impact of 5G wifi technology, DNA editing, electrosmog and Neuroptics is crucial because this information is being suppressed, you are not getting the whole picture because the fascist mind control apparatus is giving you a rose colored spin and disinformation.
As I said last week the solutions to environmental frequency disruption and poisoning are inexpensive and plentiful. The powers that be don’t want you to know how to easily circumvent their nefarious schemes to dumb us down, throw us off kilter, poison us and alter our DNA.
            Eons ago our African ancestors recognized the power of the invisible realm, the unseen light spectrum, pure energy, sound vibrations and spiritual phenomena all around us. They admonished us to live in harmony with all of them. Now Johnnie Come lately “modern science” is discovering what aboriginal/indigenous people discovered and practiced centuries ago, the power of vibrations to heal and invigorate us but the ruling class is using this against us!
Within Cymatics there is the growing awareness of Solfeggio Frequencies. Like most things, the West tries to take credit for discovering and naming Solfeggion Frequencies but the fact is, aboriginal and indigenous people have been aware of them for thousands of years.  The principle of universal vibration is the third law of the Nile Valley based esoteric principles called Hermeticism. This principle says, “Motion is manifest in everything in the Universe--that nothing is at rest--that everything moves, vibrates, and circles. This Hermetic Principle was recognized by some of the early Greek philosophers who embodied it in their systems. But, then, for centuries it was lost sight of by the thinkers outside of the Hermetic ranks. But in the Nineteenth Century physical science re-discovered the truth and the Twentieth Century scientific discoveries have added additional proof of the correctness and truth of this centuries-old Hermetic doctrine. The Hermetic Teachings are that not only is everything in constant movement and vibration, but that the ‘differences’ between the various manifestations of the universal power are due entirely to the varying rate and mode of vibrations. Not only this, but that even THE ALL, in itself, manifests a constant vibration of such an infinite degree of intensity and rapid motion that it may be practically considered as at rest, the teachers directing the attention of the students to the fact that even on the physical plane a rapidly moving object (such as a revolving wheel) seems to be at rest. The Teachings are to the effect that Spirit is at one end of the Pole of Vibration, the other Pole being certain extremely gross forms of Matter. Between these two poles are millions upon millions of different rates and modes of vibration.”  http://www.sacred-texts.com/eso/kyb/kyb04.htm
 This deep African thought enabled practitioners to use energy/vibrations to alter matter, to change the energy in their surroundings, gain crucial insight about the present and future, to heal and transform people and communities. This is the core truth behind music as a calming, healing and transcendent force: https://www.gaiameditation.com/sound-healing-research/origins-sound-healing/ and the real reasons for chanting and meditating using the word/sound OM which just so happens to vibrate at the frequency of 432 Hz, the universal frequency found within everything in nature! https://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-7565/om-what-is-it-why-do-we-chant-it.html  This is no coincidence! 
There are seven primary frequencies within the Solfeggio Frequencies. Each one has a specific power to heal, restore or enhance a specific condition. Aboriginal people have been using sound (and energy transfer such as laying on of hands) to heal for thousands of years. https://www.gaiameditation.com/sound-healing-research/origins-sound-healing/  Sofeggio Frequencies also correspond to the seven Chakras within the human body. Go to http://solawakening.com/solfeggio-frequencies-2/ to discover more about these powerful tools and how to gain access to them before it’s too late.
I say before it’s too late because the enemies of the world are using sound vibrations/frequencies as weapons against us. In the 1940’s the ruling elites changed the global industrial tuning frequency from the natural 432 Hz to an unnatural 440 Hz. Today all music and sound recording are on this level.  http://www.viewzone.com/432hertz.html Since then they have developed and introduced weapons using sound frequencies against us. http://www.newworldwar.org/sw.htm, https://www.history.com/news/sonic-weapons-warfare-acoustic.
I am not sharing this information to frighten you; but to make you aware just how evil and sadistic the ruling class is and warn you of their wicked plans against us. Do not take this lightly!

                                                      From The Ramparts
                                                Junious Ricardo Stanton
                                         Get Grounded in the Natural Flow

“The only way to fully protect against artificial electromagnetic radiation is by reconnecting to the natural frequency of 7.83 Hz Earth. Studies have shown that health of human beings is tied to the existence of this frequency. The first astronauts who have flown in space have suffered serious health problems due to the lack of Schumann resonance. Discovering this correlation, scientists at NASA have decided to introduce the 7.83 Hz Schumann generators in all spacecrafts to create a natural and healthy electromagnetic environment. Since then, astronauts have not suffered any more health problems.” http://www.technologyforlife.org/what-is-earth-resonance-therapy/

Over the past few weeks I’ve shared the deleterious effects of modern technology, how man made electromagnetic frequencies have clearly observable effects on human beings, how mad scientists’ Optogenic, DNA gene editing/altering technologies have the potential for massive unintended consequences or worse, premeditated evil eugenics, depopulation and human alteration programs.

 Last week I shared a little known aspect of modern digital technology called electrosmog. What is electrosmog?  Electrosmog is: “the invisible electromagnetic radiation resulting from the use of both wireless technology and mains electricity. The most common sources of wireless electrosmog are: cordless phones, cordless baby alarms, mobile/cellular phone masts/towers/transmitters, mobile/cellular phones wireless networks.” http://www.detect-protect.com/k/buzz/whatiselectrosmog.htm

Electrosmog like airborne pollution and contaminants is dangerous to our health. “Electrosmog is responsible for a condition known as electrosensitivity (ES) or electrohypersensitivity (EHS). Symptoms include: headaches, disruptive sleep patterns,
chronic fatigue, depression, hypersensitivity and erratic blood pressure, skin complaints and behavioral patterns in children. Children, the elderly and anyone with a lowered immune system are most at risk from the health effects. The health effects from electrosmog can take 10 – 20 years to manifest themselves, however for some, the effect can appear immediately. Research shows that between 3% and 5% of the general population could be ES sufferers. In Sweden, for example, 285, 000 people (over 3% of the population) are registered as ES and claim disability benefit from the government.” http://www.detect-protect.com/k/buzz/whatiselectrosmog.htm
           
          Keep in mind the culprit is artificial electromagnetic frequencies. Fortunately the cure and solution is simple, natural and for the most part free! Our African ancestors and all indigenous/aboriginal people understood the earth was a living entity. They called it our mother and at one time it was worshipped and held in awe and the highest respect.
            
         The coming of the Caucasians changed all that. Their aspiritual materialistic worldview and innate need to dominate, control and exploit nature and humanity regardless of the consequences is placing the world in a precarious position/predicament.
           
         To solve this issue of the proliferation of electromagnetic/radio wave radiation we have to return to the source, return to nature. Europeans view the earth from a purely materialistic perspective and were surprised to discover oscillation waves caused resonance, which are vibrations at the same frequency as the original object such as a musical instrument, tuning fork or pendulum. In 1951 a German scientist named Winfried Otto Schumann discovered that the earth vibrated (resonated) at a set frequency 7.83 Hz electrical power. He claimed this resonance was the result of millions of lightening strikes all around the world every second that caused the resonance between the earth’s surface and the ionosphere.

While Western scientists accept this theory, they don’t embrace the notion the earth is a living entity with its own vibratory energy that coupled with the energy in the air, sustains all life on earth. Experiments have shown the importance of this 7.83 Hz frequency on human health and wellbeing. “The Schumann Resonance vibrates at a pulse of 7.83 Hz and it is said to be the heartbeat of mother earth. When a person’s brain waves resonate with 7.83 Hz, it has been shown in scientific studies to be an essential requirement for physical and psychological health. Laboratory research has also shown that exposing living cells to the Schumann Resonance had the effect of increasing their immune protection.” What is the Shumann Resonance and Why Is It Vital to Your Health? https://www.bewellbuzz.com/body-buzz/schumann-resonance-essential-health/

This is what our African ancestors meant when they admonished us to live in harmony (resonance) with all nature. To them the universe’s energy, vibrations and frequencies were part of the Ashe, Jok, Nommo, the vital energy or Godforce that permeates all creation that vibrates a differing frequencies from the most dense (matter) to the most ethereal (Spirit). This energy is conscious and purposeful part of the CREATIVE force at work in the UNIVERSE. To protect ourselves from man made electrosmog and radio wave radiation, just return to SPIRIT. Touch mother earth on a regular basis; walk barefoot on the beach, in your backyard or in the woods. Raise your personal (mental, psychic and emotional) vibratory levels through meditation, humming (chanting), and meditation: calming your mind and monitoring and controlling your thoughts which will allow you to control your emotions, words and deeds.
Indigenous people use rituals and ceremonies to connect with nature to raise the vibratory levels of the participants. You can also use crystals; many claim crystals(like quartz and  amethyst) are conduits for positive energy that ward off negative energies and vibrations. https://goop.com/wellness/spirituality/the-8-essential-crystals/  Of course we need to get plenty of restful sleep in a gadget free bedroom, eat wholesome foods especially green leafy vegetables and fresh fruits that boost your alkaline PH https://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-6243/How-to-Balance-Your-pH-to-Heal-Your-Body.html and drink good water.
Weaning yourself from your electronic gadgets and gizmos is a must! I know this is hard in this day and age but you have to do it to protect yourself from electrosmog, radio wave radiation and other forms of digital poisoning. Don’t depend on pills and prescriptions, we each have the power to heal and protect ourselves and nature is on our side so use it!
