Listen to a reading of this article: ❖ Empire managers: Putin invaded Ukraine! Public: Oh no! What should we do about it? Empire managers: Greatly increase military spending, work to weaken Russia, and censor dissenting opinions. Public: Wait, aren’t those things you’ve always wanted to do anyway?
only by massive amounts of propaganda would any sane person allow the government to force them to be injected with an experimental vaccine...with NO double blind placebo testing...and produced by known felons driven by pure greed....
"I've met some cute kids in my time but nobody's as adorable as westerners who talk about Chinese people being propagandized," ... without being the least bit aware of any of the horrific things Western Nations, in particular the USA, did to China over the last two centuries.
Princeton and Yale built a huge part of their endowments on Opium sales in China protected by US Marines, and that's one of the nicer things.
"Only by massive amounts of propaganda would people consent to unprecedented acts of economic warfare which directly hurt them and benefit them in no way shape or form." THIS. Thank you for speaking out so eloquently on what should be the bleeding obvious, but of course, is totally opaque to the majority of the American public.
"Whatever ends up collapsing the US empire is far less likely to come from Russia or China than from the US empire itself."
Now this is perhaps the most accurate statement ever made on the subject of "end of empire".
Historians should go back to all the empires before this now disgraced empire came into effect and analyse the reasons for the gradual decline in past centuries. This one is only 75 years young but on the downhill swing at such a pace that it will lose the advantages of past empires who were able to adjust to the slower pace and not get hurt. Britain's empire has been managed over time, now in its final death throes
I have enough confidence in the different populations in all the different countries to think that they will wake to the reasons for the lack of food, high cost of heating for families, electricity shortages, reduction in manufacturing as a result, unemployment figures like never before and deaths through created virus strains to be able to clearly see the prime mover for all those ills.
A now sad country who has a leader who needs world power to stay alive while at the same time trying to inflict his values on the rest of the world, clearly not falling into line as expected and as each week passes, seeing the USA for what it has become. An uncontrolled bully boy.
Any empire that uses sanctions against countries who do not bow to their dictates, who are prepared to kill 20 million men women and children to satisfy their lust for power, has little to recommend it and cannot, given the passing of time, command respect from any source including their own citizens. This takes time however, particularly when the political options of both political entities are so similar, so totally corrupt. To give a low priority as an example to the protection of so many killed through gun laws by allowing weapons to be purchased by 18 year olds to then go on a rampage and kill so many as we saw recently and almost in the same breath, another days later.
No other country has this problem. Not one.
And now, the Machiavellian Biden is supplying long range weapons to his NATO stooges?
One mistake is all it is going to take and it will happen. We all know that. That is what he is planning for and we all know that as well.
Caitlin, I think this is the VERY BEST essay I have read from you.
Thank you for that, it made my day. Like you I am an Australian, and one of the hardest or perhaps saddest breaking paradigms for me was the realization that our western nations are run by fascists, and we've lived our lives in an illusion of freedom and democracy. The Covid-19 fascism took care of that for me in a rather painful way.
Here's some food for thought I have been researching all the connections between the Xi Jinping gang and the rest of the Covid-cartel, and came to the conclusion that neither China or the west could have pulled off the Covid con without the other - they are cooperating, and you see it most at the Davos globalists-World Economic Forum level. But even though they are working together to break up the world, Xi and his gang wants to break up the world so they can seize control of what is left over, but the psychopathic fascists in the west think they should have control, so there's a little tension going on.
One big sign of cooperation between these equally evil imperialistic empires is apart from Covid they cooperate fully on foisting the climate change Great Reset on the world while China goes on building coal fired power stations - because they stand to get the most profit from manufacturing for the green new deal.
While we see Biden breaking the world, Xi shut down Shanghai to expunge his enemies and seize control of the city, as it was under the control of the Shanghai gang who are his greatest enemies, but he was doing his part for the Great Reset, and smashing up the global supply chains too. Meantime he gets to add to his propaganda campaign that lockdowns work - 3 Shanghai doctors who prior to the lockdowns were spruiking 'live with the virus' just published a paper in the Lancet boosting the propaganda that lockdowns work, because Xi announced in the politburo a few weeks back that they would 'smash any opposition to the Covid doctrine of lockdowns' - Xi's way or quarantine!
Xi created the policies and claims credit for it. This is the first in a series I am doing on him:
I don't buy into the universal "luv" narrative where all sins are apparently the same, and are forgivable and forgiven - usually with a wave of the hand and eyes turned heavenward. But hostility must have a legitimate, credible basis: it must be rooted in reality and have a point. The hostility directed toward Russia and China don't fit those requirements: they are simply malicious and calculated to turn back on the sources and corrode and devour them, slowly or with speed. The US and West are now in the position of harming or even destroying themselves, and are robot walking in the wrong direction. Agreed.
China is far from a beacon. They've taken their people out of abject poverty which was mostly created by psychopaths like Mao, and are now an totalitarian regime which is happy to lockdown 25 million people for weeks on end. You may talk sense on the west propaganda machine but you should take off your rose tinted glasses on China. By the way, capitalism is what made the west rich (and China as well by the way, not communist central planning), is not perfect (nothing is), but what we have now is crony capitalism. All due to corrupt politicians and a state that has expanded way too much. The solution is in cutting it down, and removing a lot of its and politicians powers.
Our nation turned itself into a subservient vassal state of the global elites and societal experimentation a long time ago. The empire was never ours to hold.
They always felt that need to destroy our republic so no example of systemic evolutionary change would be an example to others to do the same.
The end goal would be as always through centuries, destruction of our social construct, stripping our resources, our true values,
our faith in humanity.
In return the idealogues with the already landed and priviledged royals, united with the new aristocracy, the corporate subservients, would together give us all promises,
to save ourselves from ourselves. Isms will replace dialogue. Scientism would replace biological life. Socialist totalitarianism would replace reason.
I, do not consent. By whatever means necessary, this republic cannot be destroyed from the top without the full consent of the governed. As I have said to the Executive, for he as others in my lifetime have abused the offices and have been derelict in their duties, "I will fight you." I, will not consent.
So sad when this is the US' legacy: "The social engineering necessary to keep politically inclined people fixated on agendas that either won't lead anywhere or which trouble the powerful in no way, even as we entered an unprecedented age of information access, is one of the most awe-inspiring human achievements in history."
“Can't believe Mohammed bin Salman is sullying Saudi Arabia's name by meeting with the president of the United States.”
True. Beheading people is a more humane, though graphic, form of execution. Electrocuting or poisoning people, sometimes for hours at a time, is actually more barbaric.
I’m against the death penalty, but in relativistic terms, I’d rather face a sharp sword and a skilled hand, or better yet, a guillotine.

American imperial hubris may well be the death of us all.

The propaganda narratives from all “sides” have reached a level of epic insanity. Keep Fighting. ❤️

This pernicious state will only be broken by the pitiless crowbar of events.
