Gaslighting The All American Pastime
Gaslighting, The All American Pastime
Junious Ricardo Stanton
Several years ago the word gaslighting was added to the American
popular lexicon. Gaslighting is defined as:
psychological control and abuse, manipulating
someone into questioning their own perception of reality, deception
of one's memory, perception of reality, or mental stability. It
derives from a 1944 motion picture titled Gaslight
whereby
an unfaithful husband attempts to psychologically manipulate his wife
into thinking she’s crazy, that what she suspects and knows are
not true. The term became popular in the first decade of the
twenty-first century and was word of the year in 2022.
Currently
the word is used as both a noun and verb. Sample synonyms for
gaslighting are: crazy-making, mind games, head games, deceiving,
hoodwinking, tricking, bamboozling, scamming and many others. In the
US today gaslighting is a national pastime which is why the word has
gained so much use and popularity. Gaslighting is ingrained in the
country’s ethos, the psychological and behavior patterns of this
nation. All too often we are actively gaslit by our friends, our
lovers, our family and on collective and societal levels by the
media, the government both visible and shadow, corporations and the
elites who weld power and influence over us.
Often
while we are being gaslit, we intuitively know something is wrong,
something is amiss we have a gut feeling our experiences, our
memories and worldview are being tested and stressed. Actually we are
being gaslit, psychologically manipulated, lied to and duped all day
all the time all year long. Often while we are being gaslit our minds
actively resist and we are able to tap into an inner resolve using
our experiences or our sense that something is amiss to give us the
strength to persevere, not succumb to the lies, tricks and
manipulation. During times like those we are resolute and we refuse
to fall for the okey-doke.
But
at other
times fear, self-doubt and the effectiveness of the gaslighters’
disingenuousness and cunning overcomes our inclination towards
self-confidence and truth. Our adversaries are not only ruthlessly
knavish and conniving, they own and have omnipresent access to
powerful technologies such as print media, social media and
the legacy media that repeat their message over and over twenty-four
hours a day on countless platforms. These miscreants are able to
embed their subliminal and overt messages in everything: print and
electronic media as
well as
our SMART devices.
SMART
is an acronym it stands for Self
Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology,
This is twenty four hour three sixty five surveillance, tracking and
data harvesting. These devices can create an alternative narrative or
reality and because we are in an uncritical state when we use these
devices the messages sink in and impact not only our thoughts but our
actions, responses and behaviors as well.
On
a far more insidious level the government uses its enforcement
power
to coerce us in collusion with the corporations to do what they want
us to do, to acquiesce to their policies and programs. For the past
four years we’ve been living in this type of dystopian hellscape
whereby the powers that shouldn’t be imposed cockeyed mandates,
such as social isolation and quarantine of healthy people, mandatory
distancing, nation wide lock-downs that arbitrarily shuttered
businesses, ruined careers, imposed economic hardship on countless
people and so disrupted our normal patterns and pace of living
massive social, emotional and psychological breakdowns have occurred!
These breakdowns and trauma if unresolved with remain with us
adversely impacting us for years, generations
even!
The
good news is breakthroughs are happening. The so called COVID
remediation policies are being exposed as a massive gaslighting
campaign; whereby all Big Pharma propaganda, selected scientists and
mathematicians’ unverified far fetched projections and billionaire
elites’ narratives about a bogus “novel coronavirus” that
were
foisted upon us twenty-four seven three sixty-five for four years
straight are
now being openly challenged and repudiated.
Where
before
legitimate treatment options and previously used pandemic remediation
modalities were suppressed, censored and forbidden, they
are now being vendicated.
Any
skepticism or honest inquiries, questioning or critique of the
“official narratives” were demonized, people were threatened with
loss of their licenses, jobs, the destruction of their reputations
and the government used its enforcement powers to frighten and
mandate people into taking untested, toxic injections that now have
been proven
to be dangerously
toxic
and deadly. The
tide is turning, the gaslighting is being rejected.
More
peer reviewed studies are coming out in countries around the
world exposing the deadliness of these injections. There
are studies
from
Italy and Germany showing the COVID shots are directly related to the
surge in all cause deaths, that the COVID “vaccines” had no
beneficial effects and they have increased the mortality rate. You
can find these reports at www.childrenshealthdefense.org and
www.armstronceconomic.com.
The
tide is turning but we must resist the ubiquitous gaslighting not
just about COVID but everything: the economy, the wars, the
environment, everything! We combat gaslighting by trusting ourselves,
having faith in our intuition, having
confidence
seeing our experiences as teachers, lessons and guides to living,
doing research to reinforce and buttress our reality while being open
to new ideas. Never let anyone negate your experiences good or bad.
Gaslighting
is ubiquitous but we can resist and overcome this insidious practice.

Something's Fishy
Something’s Fishy
Junious Ricardo Stanton
Associated Press Photo by Gene J. Puskar
On Saturday evening
July 13 , 2024 at 6:131 PM a shooter who gained access to a rooftop
with a direct line of sight to the podium about a hundred fifty yards
from where Presidential candidate Donald Trump was about to speak at
a campaign rally in Butler Pennsylvania fired off several rounds from
a rifle. Trump was hit on the tip of his right ear. Several civilians
were injured one died and the shooter was killed or to use a CIA term
“neutralized” by the Secret Service Counter Assassination Team.
All the facts are not out yet but from what I saw of the footage,
something doesn’t pass the smell test, something is fishy here.
The media is
replaying parts of the event over and over again especially the part
where Trump grabs his ear and drops to the floor. Looking at the
footage I have numerous questions about the effectiveness of the
security that day. First off why weren’t SS agents closer to Trump?
After the shots Trump grabs his ear and drops to the floor Secret
Service agents are seen running onto the podium, several surround
him, shield him with their bodies, stand him upright and lead him off
the stage to a waiting vehicle. Why weren’t agents closer in
proximity to the candidate? Why weren’t they at least positioned on
the stage? How many Secret Service agents were detailed for that
event? How many Pennsylvania State Police and local law enforcement
assets were assigned to cover the event and the area and how many
hours of pre-event planning and coordination were done? Were unmanned
aerial vehicles aka drones employed by security to have an eye on the
whole area? If not why not? Where there helicopters deployed?
More importantly
how was a man with a rapid fire rifle who was seen by attendees even
allowed access to a rooftop near where Trump would be speaking? There
are reports several bystanders warned the Secret Service agents but
they took no immediate action, what’s up with that? How did
something like that happen? One other attendee was killed, where was
that person in relation to Trump? The attendees who were injured,
where were they stationed and in what sequence were they shot?
There is so much
footage of Trump being shot is being shown over and over, was there
any footage of the shooter after he was “neutralized”? What
happened to his body, where is it? The media people interviewed
several bystanders and attendees how come no law enforcement people
were present to give accounts of what took place and a time line of
events?
Again it is early
in the process but from my perspective I do not think best security
practices were employed at that rally especially given the hostility
and divisiveness of the campaigns and the hostile climate in this
country today! There have been numerous verbal attacks on Trump and
the campaign rhetoric from both sides has been vitriolic, nasty and
mean. All of this is contributing to the acrimony incivility and
discord which was already extremely intense.
The political
climate in this country is so partisan and negatively charged that
independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr was denied
Secret Service protection for his campaign. That was an unprecedented
move especially since violence is so ubiquitous in this country. This
is all the more reason I feel something is fishy with the Trump
shooting. This says a great deal about who we are as a nation and a
people. Which way will the nation go now? How will this impact the
campaign process? Time will tell.

S.M.A.R.T. = Post Humanism
S.M.A.R.T. = Post Humanism
Junious Ricardo
Stanton
Our culture is
inundated with the concept of S.M.A.R.T. technology but few of us
actually know what it means. We’re not fully aware of its growing
impact on our lives and what it portends for the future of humanity.
We have SMART phones, SMART TV’s, SMART refrigerators, SMART
watches etc. and soon we will have SMART cities. But what is
S.M.A.R.T. technology anyway? SMART is an acronym it stands for Self
Monitoring Analysis and Reporting technology. It is technology
that has the capability of 24/7 real time surveillance, tracking and
data harvesting using 5G and soon 6G technology. The very name
indicates what it is up to; internal monitoring (surveillance),
analysis aka data collection, filtering, and reporting (to whom?) on
an ongoing basis. SMART technology is Big Brother on steroids. It is
ubiquitous, it is Trojan Horse technology we uncritically bring into
our personal spaces; it monitors and spies on us constantly. The
government and globalist technocrats are planning to use advanced
technology to make it impossible to go off grid, slip or avoid the
spy networks.
You say, so what, I
don’t have anything to hide why should surveillance frighten or
bother me? What do I care what they are doing or why they are doing
it? First of all they are using the data they gather on us in real
time to create fluid profiles of us so they can sell us stuff we
don’t need but more importantly to manipulate us and this is just
the beginning, the tip of the iceberg. To the globalist misanthropes
we are mere commodities, consumers, purchasing units to be
manipulated, exploited and kicked to the curb. Ultimately they want
to change us into soulless automatons and cyborgs.
Their New World
Order will not be like the present or the past. Work will be done by
AI and robots. Artificial Intelligence is becoming more and more
ubiquitous. In the near future many current jobs will no longer
exist or be available for humans. What do they do with those of us
they frequently refer to as “useless eaters”? They will need
some way to control us by stifling or taking away our desire for
sufficiency, life purpose and creativity and redirecting that energy
elsewhere. They are doing this now with Social Media. We are fixated
on it, addicted to it, it controls our time use and dictates our
values and worldview. Social media even creates our “reality”.
Soon SMART
technology will become more invasive, rapidly moving into the
embedding of chips, and other forms of technology they call human
enhancement or Bio-Nano technology into our bodies; if we allow it.
What is Bio-Nano technology? It is defined as biotechnological
interface (merging, melding) biomolocules and nano materials
sharing information and controlling the basic structure and function
of complex biological systems
(like our bodies).
It is part of the
roiling out of the Internet of Things, the Fourth Industrial
Revolution that globalists like Klaus Schwab brag about. SMART
technology not only uses 5G to collect, harvest and communicate to
the powers that shouldn’t be; it also uses advanced artificial
intelligence that in the near future will collect harvest and infuse
the data and input it into machines the technocrats are developing
which will cross the human-machine barrier moving into what futurist
social engineers like Schwab, Yuval Noah Harari , Elon Musk and Ray
Kurzweil call Post-humanism.
They plan to usher
in Universal Basic Income a payment system where everyone gets a card
and an account and you can only access your money as long as you
comply with the rules and norms the global elites hand down to us. If
you don’t you will be cut off from access and designated a
potential threat! If you go off the reservation you will become
persona non grata, be tracked, hunted down and at first subject to
re-education and reprogramming and harsher forms of punishment if
that doesn’t work.
I don’t know
about you but to me anything calling itself post-human means
something beyond or after what it currently means to be human. These
Frankensteins are determined to alter the existing natural order.
They admit it is another step in their ongoing program towards
transhumanism; their goal is to redesign and re-engineer human
biology and nature itself using advanced technology directed by their
warped Luciferian consciousness on a massive global scale.
When you read
their literature, watch to their Ted Talks, see their interviews and
conferences they all talk about making themselves immortal and
godlike. They talk about altering the planet and the social order to
achieve some pie in the sky, egalitarianism where they and their
acolytes (human, AI and cyborg), administer and control everything by
killing off most of us through wars, pandemics, vaccines, engineered
famines and transforming the remaining population into cyborgs,
designer human beings (designed and programmed by them) what they
call augmented human beings. They are not shy about it at all. They
openly brag about this new social order.
Just like they want
to turn humans into bionic beings they want to alter the natural
landscape by controlling land use and transform the earth using
GMO’s, ecocide and technology! This is not hyperbole or science
fiction, this goes far beyond the predictive programming in films
like The Matrix where the heroes are linked and hooked up to
computers (machines) which allow them to fight the AI enemies
controlling the planet; or the film They Live where humans are
programmed and manipulated to comply with the aliens’ agenda. This
is far more nefarious because it is real.
The megalomaniacs
planning this hellscape are the heirs and descendants of the very
people who devised and imposed this predatory and ruthlessly
exploitative hierarchy upon the West and subsequently the world. Now
they want to reconfigure the planet so there is not a shred of
opposition to their hubris and psychopathy. They want to create a New
World Order in their perverse image and mindset. They want to be the
new gods of earth ruling over a new species of beings on a
transfigured planet.
If they were really
so altruistic they’d just give up all their money and resources and
redistribute them to the masses, they’d relinquish their hold on
the reigns of global power, allow humanity to guide and govern
ourselves allow us to introduce more humane ways of doing things.
But they won’t because this is not what they are about. These
misanthropes are about total global domination and control. They have
a humongous god complex that demands they create this New World Order
in their own twisted image and likeness. Their noble sounding
rhetoric aside, their New World Order will be hell on earth for most
of us.

What Is The Significance of the Fourth of July in 2024?
What Is The Significance of Fourth of July 2024
Junious Ricardo
Stanton
In 1852 an escaped
slave, orator, abolitionist and newspaper publisher named Frederick
Douglas was asked by the Rochester
Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society
from Rochester New
York where he was residing at that time, to give a speech to
commemorate the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the
founding of this nation. The event was to held at Corinthian Hall in
Rochester New York. Douglas agreed but his speech excoriated America
for its hypocrisy, mendacity and barbarism regrading it’s peculiar
institution of slavery towards its victims languishing in brutal
chattel servitude. His speech was entitled What to The Slave is
the Fourth of July?
Here we are one
hundred and seventy-two years later yet Douglas’ speech could
easily be revised and entitled What to the American Masses Is The
Fourth of July? In 2024 the American middle and lower classes
find themselves in a tenuous predicament. We no longer have the
vaunted liberties, privileges and noble sounding national creed
Douglas noted in the beginning of his speech; liberties and
privileges he later exposed as a complete sham when it came to his
enslaved people.
Today most of us
while not languishing in brutal servitude, owned by other human
beings or corporations we still are not free. Many of the guarantees
in the Bill of Rights are or have been whittled away, others
are in the process of being relegated to a deep memory hole of a by
gone era. SO what is the significance of the Fourth of July in 2024?
What to a homeless
person or family is the Fourth of July? While many are celebrating,
bar-b ques, cooking out and vacationing, millions of Americans are
homeless without shelter wallowing in squalid conditions, trying to
survive and provide for themselves and their families. While they are
suffering the indignities of poverty, displacement, marginalization
and being ignored we have a government that is increasingly less
receptive and responsive to their needs and desires. These so called
public servants’ top priority are pleasing the monied interests,
keeping fat cat lobbyists and the oligarchs who ply them with
millions in bribes aka campaign contributions happy. Homeless people
and most of us could never muster, amass the amounts of money the
oligarch give them.
What to a
struggling family is the Fourth of July when the cost of living is
skyrocketing exponentially and they have to make crucial decisions
about how they are going to juggle their meager funds to pay their
bills, put food on the table, pay the mortgage, rent or car payment
and still have enough money for a few simple pleasures? What to the
people living paycheck to paycheck, who are dipping into their
retirement and saving funds to survive is the Fourth of July?
What to people who
just want to be left alone is a day celebrating freedom from
government intrusion, harassment and abuse when the corporations and
government are in increasingly colluding to monitor and spy on us
twenty-four seven, three sixty-five, as they harvest our DNA at will,
track, record and collect data on our comings and goings around the
clock? Is this real freedom?
What to a populous
that wants peace is a Fourth of July celebration when the American
government is spending trillions of tax payer dollars, money the
government does not have to fund wars that are killing innocent
civilians, babies, men, women, children, to prop up a corrupt
government that US meddling and intrigue helped create in 2014, that
many US government officials are profiteering off of the war and the
endemic corruption there. What to a pacifist is the US Fourth of July
celebration while the government is supporting an apartheid state
actively engaged in genocide and fomenting war against its neighbors?
What to a young person is the Fourth of July now that he or she is
subject to conscription to be sent off to fight these wars for a
government that see them as mere cannon fodder?
What to a seeker f
truth is the Fourth of July celebrations that ignores or suppresses
the real history of this country, the human trafficking for
enslavement purposes, the ongoing wars, undeclared military and
“police” actions from 1776 to present totaling 93 per cent, two
hundred and twenty-two out of two hundred and forty-eight years of
its total existence?!
What to a sane
person is the Fourth of July who must sift through the massive amount
of lies, propaganda and gaslighting in the legacy media and social
media platforms just to get some sense of what is actually going on
in the world?
What to a person
concerned about the direction and future of this nation is the Fourth
of July in 20204 when we see the deplorable choice of candidates for
the highest office in the land, the out and out foolishness of the
political campaigns and the prospects of things turning around for
the better not happening any time soon.
In short other than
a day off, what to most Americans is the Fourth of July?
The Empire Is In Deep Trouble
The Empire Is In Deep Trouble
Junious Ricardo Stanton
I watched the
Presidential “debate” last night, it was bad. America is in
trouble. The world is either in total shock or laughing their behinds
off at the display of feeble-mindedness and narcissism on all the
major networks and global media.
Whew, it was bad.
At several points I couldn’t help from laughing at others I felt
sorry for this country even though I know we are witnessing Karma
playing itself out here. The whole “debate” hype was nothing more
than gaslighting and political and media theatrics, it was all
sizzle, no substance.
I was watching a
baseball game but turned it off to check out the “debate”. When I
turned back the home team was losing and it was going into the ninth
inning so I turned back to the debacle. I originally decided I wasn’t
going to watch it but I changed my mind. I decided to take a peek
just to see how the two men would conduct themselves and how the so
called moderators would control the proceedings. We’d heard so much
pre-event yakety-yak about strict adherence to the agreed upon rules,
how microphones would be cut off so the candidates couldn’t go over
their time limit or be able to talk over one another. This was
supposedly so the “debate” wouldn’t devolve into soliloquies or
personal attacks. Well so much for the rules.
First off Donald
Trump never directly answered a question, not one. He went on
immediate attack criticizing Biden the whole time. Even when the
moderators came aback and asked him the question again he only
directly answered at best one or two of their questions during the
whole time! He rattled off declarations that were not fact checked
and the moderators did not hold him to a standard of veracity so the
whole affair was a charade. It was bad.
Joe Biden was never
in the game, Trump seemed to catch him off guard early with his
bombastic claims about how great he and his administration were and
how pitiful Biden’s is. Biden never recovered. In fact for about a
full third of the time Biden liked like a deer in the headlights,
dazed, confused and his responses were what some would call sentence
salad which is akin to oratorical dyslexia where the speaker’s
words are jumbled or uttered in such a way they don’t make any
sense. When Biden had a grasp of what he wanted to say which wasn’t
often, his words never came out with conviction or authority other
than the times he called Trump a liar. It was so bad that when Dana
Bash asked Biden a question and he went blank or started sentence
salading she either changed the subject, or turned to Trump which in
effect saved Biden by the bell! Is was bad.
It was painful to
watch, it was not America’s finest hour politically. The American
Empire is in rapid, steep and steady decline, that so called “debate”
is just another symptom of the Empire’s implosion. Not only
weren’t the two major political parties’ candidates up to snuff
intellectually, neither one able to discuss the issues of the hour,
demonstrate their familiarity with the issues or offer solid
solutions to the pressing problems this nation is facing. Not only
that, they weren’t even mature enough to conduct themselves with
the decorum fitting for the occasion.
Personal attacks
were the order of the day. Trump jumped on Biden early and often and
Biden never was able to use verbal Ju-Jitsu to make Trump look silly
or incompetent. Neither candidate appeared “presidential”.
Neither man’s body language exuded confidence or a sense he had the
situation under control. Neither man could be called a deep thinker
on that stage. Even the post “debate” commentary admitted Biden
did not do well which is an understatement.
Both men resorted
to childish verbal attacks on their opponent and Trump appeared to
get thoroughly under Biden’s skin. Biden seemed frustrated by his
own lack of mental acuity which prevented him from responding to
Trump or even answering the moderators questions effectively. It was
bad. It was apparent Biden was not having a good day and things never
got better for him as the event went on despite what the Democratic
spinmeisters said following the debacle.
Biden did not
perform well but the real loser in that debacle wass the American
people. That sham went out around the world and now people judge us
based upon what they saw last night. It was not good. The world must
be befuddled. They are asking themselves and each other, how is it
possible the United States only has these two as major candidates for
the highest office in the land?! Surely there must be others more
adroit, articulate and knowledgeable people out there who could
better represent the American people. Why wasn’t Robert Kennedy Jr
allowed to participate; at least he would have presented alternative
viewpoints and positions and added deeper analysis insights and
solutions than these two did.
This was the
earliest debate in history. The political parties have not even had
their conventions or formally selected their standard bearers for the
2024 presidential election yet! Does this mean that Joe Biden and
Donald Trump are the set in stone candidates for 2024? If so this
puts the American people in a major conundrum, a fix of unfathomable
proportions. Who do we vote for if you think the system is
salvageable? Are there viable alternatives other to these two? Don’t
you think we deserve better? Or is this country so far gone this is
all we can get?
It’s not that the
other world leaders are great statesmen and women themselves, its
just that we rarely see that type of debauchery on display in other
nation’s political campaigns. This is bad.
Sadly I do not
think this will get better, that Joe Biden will bounce back or
Donald Trump will offer serious solutions to the pressing issues
facing the world today. I’m reminded of the Roman Empire during its
rapid decline, it suffered a series of corrupt leaders who were
unable to alter the downward trajectory of the empire until it
eventually collapsed of its own corruption, decadence and hubris.
Even Donald Trump kept saying the country is in bad shape. Based upon
what I saw last night, he is correct.

The West Is Trotting Towards War
The West Is Trotting Towards War
Junious Ricardo Stanton
Several weeks ago I wrote a commentary entitled Sleepwalking Into
More War which provided insights into the West’s maniacal
support for the wars raging in Gaza and Ukraine. As time passed the
sleepwalk is becoming a trot. Our misleadership class is accelerating
the expansion of existing conflicts and opening new theaters of
engagement potentially against China.
Wars unlike bar fights just don’t happen spontaneously. There is a
progression, there are stages beginning with the belief war and
conflict are acceptable means of resolving issues or getting what one
wants. This is the mindset of the West. Since the fifteenth century
the West has engaged in wholesale wanton plunder, rapine and
expropriation justified by noble sounding verbiage like: spreading
Christianity to the heathens, civilizing the savages, bringing
freedom democracy and enlightenment to the world and similar lies.
The European movers and shakers provided emotional and material
incentives and inducements to their cannon fodder to make them march
or sail off towards whatever conflict, invasion or prize they
coveted. Tribal and ethnic pride, religious fervor, claims of doing
god’s work saving the world, making it safe for democracy or
rallying the yahoos to avenge some slight or to retaliate against an
attack on them were some of the tactics they used. And in many cases,
the leaders pulled off a cunning false flag operation to jump start
hostilities. At any rate war was already a top priority they just
needed to provide a pretext and rationale to get the party started.
We
are seeing the same things in Ukraine and Palestine. The US fomented
a coup d’etat in Ukraine in 2014 which ultimately led to the rise
of a Jewish comedian named Volodymyr
Zelenskyy
to the position of president five years later. Zelensky was supported
by the US and Azov Battalion, Neo Nazis who were actively bombing
Donetsk and Donbas regions for years because the residents there
wanted to reunite with Russia who they were culturally and ethnically
related to.
Ukraine was universally recognized as a corrupt nation and the Biden
crime family had their grubby hands deep in the corruption. When
Russia intervened at the behest of the Donbas citizens the West went
ballistic. Crimea had already overwhelmingly voted to rejoin the
Russian Federation but the West spun it as a forced or coerced
annexation.
This was part of their ongoing Putin/Russia demonizing campaign. The
US/NATO axis of insanity was pissed that Putin derailed their
attempts to topple the Syrian government and do to that nation what
they did to Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya.
In addition to imposing sanctions on Putin and Russia, which are
deliberate acts of war, the Axis of Insanity set out to militarily
buttress Ukraine’s clown president. But this has failed, Ukraine
is loosing the war, so now the West has given the green light to
their clown Zelenskyy to use Western weapons to directly attack
Russian territory. The West is selling weapons, providing tactical
support and “advisors” in this wasted war effort. Now Germany,
Britain and the US have recently moved towards implementing universal
conscription or national service programs meaning military drafts!
The sleepwalk is escalating to a trot.
In Palestine Benjamin Netanyahu cavalierly and dismissively crossed
Biden’s red line blatantly defying him and bum rushing Rafah,
effectively thumbing his nose at Biden making him look like a punk!
In addition Israel has stepped up its cross border clashes in
Southern Lebanon and its tit for tat attacks on Iran. Meanwhile no
one, not the UN, not the Pope, not the G7 have moved to check the
Israelis on their aggression and warmongering.
The sleepwalk is turning into a trot. The pace is quickening towards
more direct engagement and confrontation between the West and Russia.
Yet the corporate media vigorously supports it all and spins it as:
defending democracy, fighting Russia aggression and justified Israel
defense rather than what it really is: war profiteering, corporate
greed, immorality, genocide and ethnic cleansing.
We
have seen the willingness of the US government to pour money into the
Military Industrial Technology Security State sinkhole and this trend
is not going to subside any time soon. In fact it will increase along
with preparations for conscription, logistics, war gamesmanship and
saber rattling. Look at all the joint military exercises the US/NATO
axis and the Russians and Chinese are conducting. This is the
equivalent of two dogs growling, barking and baring their teeth at
each other before they actually start fighting. Sometimes the bluff
works sometimes they end up fighting.
The misleadership in both US political parties are hellbent on war,
they don’t even mention the word peace, and by Golly they are going
to have their wars somewhere. Sadly unless there is a major
repentance the trot will break out into a full sprint towards full
blown war. We have to wake up and stop pretending not to know what is
going on!

Are False Beliefs Setting Us Up For Destruction?
Are False Beliefs Setting US Up For Destruction?
Junious Ricardo Stanton
As we look around
the world today we discover challenges to our reality, our belief
systems and the values we profess to hold dear. America says it
stands for freedom, justice, life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness but as a global hegemon the US is directly responsible for
massive human exploitation, suffering, privation, misery and death!
These are the direct consequences of the American Empire’s greed,
callousness and immorality. This hubris is pervasive yet because of
ubiquitous mind control and brainwashing most Americans are not even
aware this country is an imperialist giant. Most are oblivious to the
fact America has a global network of military bases and spends more
than several nations combined to maintain them. Somnambulant
Americans think the almost eight hundred known foreign military and
drone bases and many more top secret installations in seventy plus
nations exist to protect freedom and democracy!
In addition to
their military overreach the US is actively engaged in numerous proxy
wars using intermediaries and entities like NATO they fund and equip
to do their dirty work in places like Ukraine and Yemen. Ukraine is
becoming a humongous sinkhole for US war profiteering and kickbacks
in support of a corrupt Ukrainian government that is a boon for the
US military industrial technology hydra. Their goal aside from making
huge profits is to undermine Russia and bring that nation to heel.
Recent decisions to allow Ukraine to escalate direct attacks on
Russian soil using Western weaponry are not only idiotic they will
have horrific consequences.
On the other hand
the US misleadership finds itself in a conundrum due to its total
support of an obvious ethnic cleansing campaign by Israel against the
Palestinians, the real Semites of the region. The optics of this
carnage belie Israel’s claim they are fighting a defensive war in
an effort to secure release of Israeli hostages taken in the October
7, 2023 Hamas attack; an attack which appears was allowed to happen
by Israeli security forces so Israel could commence ethnic cleansing
against the people of Gaza.
The US claims
Israel is our only ally in the region, an ally who shares this
nation’s democratic values. But is this really true? The reality is
the United States is an oligarchy ruled by an elite group not
ordinary citizens who represent and exercise the will of the people.
A Princeton and Northwestern Universities study by Martin
Gilens and Benjamin Page
concluded the US is ruled by influential elites and special interest
groups who set the agenda and policies for the government.
Election campaigns
whose costs prohibit the average person from running for state,
national and even some local public offices makes a mockery of the
claim this is a government of the people by the people or for the
people. Special interests, big money and the oligarchs actually
control this country and set its policies. The executive, legislative
and even judicial branches and their regulatory agencies have been
captured, are beholden to and taken hostage by big money interests.
Elections and voting merely provide the illusion we have a say in the
governance process.
For example most
rational people would opt to spend their hard earned tax dollars here
at home rather than pouring trillions to prop up corrupt and
genocidal governments that provide no benefit to us whatsoever while
enriching defense contractors and warmongers to the detriment of
humanity!
Israel is an
apartheid state, none of the Ashkenazim who occupy the territory and
rule the country are Semites. They are converts to Judaism who have
marginalized other Jews who have a longer claim to the religion than
they do. They are not the true descendants of the ancient Hebrew
Israelites and Judeans.
Historically
ancient Israel was never a powerful or significant entity in the
region, it was always in the shadows of larger more powerful nations
and empires like the Egyptians, Assyrians, Persians and Babylonians.
Evangelical
Christians support Israel even though the Jews reject their Messiah
because they believe the Ashkenazim are the Israelites of the Bible
and they are Yahweh’s chosen people; who in some convoluted way
through war, tribulation and upheaval will usher the return to earth
of Christ! So they uncritically support the modern genocide in
Palestine just like they go along with the Biblical stories of the
Hebrew’s genocide and ethnic cleansing to expropriate the “Promised
Land” from the indigenous peoples. They never question the
narrative or ask why a supposedly all knowing, just god would order
“his people” to do such a thing?
Meanwhile
simultaneously the US is provoking China over Taiwan and the South
China Sea island disputes among China, Taiwan, Vietnam, the
Philippines and Indonesia. This is insane, nevertheless the
misanthropes who run this nation seem hellbent on provoking a major
war somewhere on this planet. Their hubris and psychopathy will be
their ruin.
Our false beliefs
are taking us down a slippery slope which could lead to a real
Armageddon “end times” scenario. Unless saner heads prevail and
this appears unlikely, the US and its acolytes will find themselves
eyeball deep in multiple wars they cannot possibly win. Why is it no
one sees this coming?
