Revolution 21st Century

It occurred to me the other day that we've gone past the trigger point where revolution usually results. It was actually Jimmy Dore who reminded me of this; on one of his shows he talked about how the Beatles were actually reactionary and working as sleeping pills, preventing a revolution. 

What I've detected is a complete change in the way people now think. In the workforce, people used to talk about what had been on the news the night before, and what TV shows they liked. Pretty much everyone was on the same page. But, now this is no longer the case and everyone pursues their own specific interests. However, since 2020 they've started giving up on believing.

I follow the Kenneth Clark view of civilisation. Clark was an art historian who produced and fronted a well known TV series from 1969 which examined western civilisation. He maintained that civilisation was fragile and could be quickly destroyed. 

Clark subscribed to the great man approach to history. This holds that great men do great things, which leads to great change. While I agree they do have an impact, I subscribe to the idea of economic, social and political issues of a time and their overall sweep effecting change.

What I've observed is that we stand on the edge of a cliff, and that since 2020 all trust has been lost and thus, there are no threads left holding us together. I regularly hear people talking of things they hate, and talking of the enemy. The enemy is within when they say this, it is the politicians, the capitalists, academics, teachers and so on. People do not see Russia as the enemy, despite the best efforts of the media to make it appear so. 

This leads me to the conclusion: we are headed for a French-style revolution, although it will be bloodier. 

Why hasn't revolution happened if we've gone past the trigger point? Think of those Beatles again, but this time consider the American dream, a myth for most but still a dream clung to by a dwindling number. The American dream is a pop song, putting everyone to sleep. When the numbers of those who believe have dwindled far enough, then it will kick off. 

The Fall

It occurred to me today that I may get to see the fall of western civilisation. Incredible, I know, but it may happen. All the pre-conditions exist; a total lack of faith in institutions and our way of life, economic failure caused by corruption, political interference and gross incompetence, tyranny and the removal of free speech and self-expression, including the arts.

This is particularly evident in the developed English speaking world, but not limited to it. Across the OECD, it is not an exaggeration to say we may be heading for complete collapse, total system failure. Civil war is now openly contemplated, incredible.

But, what caused this and what is the solution? Lack of education is the cause. That's right, everything flows from that; feelings of hopelessness, despair, lack of initiative and a reluctance to work or take risks results from a lack of education. Furthermore, people who lack an education often no longer aspire, and if they do, they aspire to the wrong things, things that make no material difference to everyday lives. If you have an undereducated and ignorant populace, they can be ruled by tyrannical and self-serving rulers. 

I can hear people say, no, we need better healthcare. Oh really? What is the point in living longer, just to be slave to a system? 

I then hear people say, we need freedom of speech. OK, but if uneducated then the people don't know how to use that speech. If you want an example of what I'm talking about, check out comments on social media. People there are so ignorant of basic facts, and so unable to develop any kind of cogent argument, that night soon becomes day.

I believe, certain interests want to keep it this way, they do not want the people advanced enough so that they think for themselves. 

I often use the example of Catholic schools in largely Protestant countries. Faced with prejudice, Catholics simply started their own schools.

The solution to our current predicament is to get schools up and running, schools that will teach the lessons that need to be learnt. This is a combination of what to know and how to think, the two run together like hand in glove. Once you have a general level of accomplishment, things will happen as the next generation will demand change, or they'll simply take control and make it happen. 

We See Them Now

Something to think about through 2024. 

The Great Takedown

According to a conspiracy theory doing the rounds, this Saturday the 24th of September is when the big takedown occurs. Electricity is going to be cut worldwide, thus preventing communications and life as we've come to know it in the western world. 

Oh well, it was nice knowing you all. I'll be heading for the bush as the great reset takes place. But if this takedown doesn't happen, I'll be back on deck being my usual intelligent, questioning and rather handsome self, humble too.

What is going on right now? The world is being manipulated to obey a totalitarian system. Please follow the link: https://theinfowar.tv/watch?id=63128338f675d544c48601e8

The Dark Ages

I am convinced we're entering a new dark age. That's a time when knowledge is lost, and society breaks down, to be ruled by superstition instead of law, science and engineering. Facts no longer matter in this dark age. 

How do I know this is happening? Everyone has become stupid. If not stupid then criminal. And no, I'm not talking about Vladimir Putin. I'm talking Joe Biden, Boris Johnson, Justin Trudeau, Scott Morrison and Jacinda Ardern. How could any army follow these five eyes into battle?

Then we have criminal organisations like Pfizer actually setting out to kill and injure people. And they appear to have got away with it.

Now, we have the idea of the digital currency. If cash comes to an end, it's over. End of civilisation.

2022 and the Future of Western Civilisation

We are standing on the edge of a cliff. The western world is facing its biggest crisis in at least 200 years, maybe longer. It feels hard to fathom. Look back at the ground covered, consider some of the lowlights over the last two years; the biggest being the USA's defeat in Afghanistan. This stands as the biggest humiliation of a large power in all of modern history, possibly the biggest in recorded history. That's how shaming the loss. Given how ragtag the Taleban are, their victory seems even more incredible. 

But more significant than the defeat in Afghanistan, we have the loss of freedoms in the western world. Science has become misinformation and propaganda is now science. Statements such as 'follow the science' translates in correct thinking to 'believe government propaganda.' Democracy has been permanently damaged through widespread censorship online and in the mainstream media. Intelligent debate has been replaced by cancel culture and Big Tech's deplatforming of anyone asking questions that don't fit the narrative.

But it gets worse; entirely healthy populations have been put under house arrest, their movements restricted, their ability to exercise and seek social connection compromised.

And then if that wasn't enough; businesses have been destroyed, livelihoods taken away.

Then finally, we see the suspension of the Nuremberg Code and the coercion of people to submit to medical experimentation through vaccine mandates and 'no jab no job' demands of employers, demands that are quite often completely unlawful. It needs repeating often; the Covid vaccines are not fully approved and the long range clinical trials will not be completed until 2023 at the earliest. The data does not look good either, that's why the need for boosters, and there appears no end in sight for these boosters. This amounts to endless moving of the goalposts, which to anyone already injected must make them feel vulnerable, cheated or betrayed. If it doesn't, then they're not that bright. And all of this in response to a virus that's really a bit of a wimp. As it mutates it gets weaker, which makes the draconian response look even more ridiculous and overreaching.

Can it get any worse? Yes it can, sadly, I predict 2022 will be a lot worse.

1. I believe we are in the phoney war stage of World War III. The real shooting is about to start. There are several flash points; the Ukraine, Taiwan, the Middle East, the border between India and China, and Kashmir to name a few. Where it will kick off is hard to predict, but right now the Ukraine and Taiwan seem the most likely.
2. People injected with the vaccines will start to die in numbers. They are already dying, in New Zealand mortality has increased in 2021, directly in line with the roll out of the Pfizer mRNA gene therapy (which is called a vaccine - it is no such thing). As each age group received the jab, deaths increased compared to 2018 and 2019. What happened in 2020? Deaths were lower, there was no pandemic. 
3. Not only will people die but a large proportion of those receiving the vaccines will have their health compromised permanently, their organs and immune systems irreparably damaged. 
4. Governments will double down and become even more authoritarian. They'll try to remove cash from the payments system, and link vaccine passports with everyday items, such as access to food and water. This will result in riots and widespread civil unrest and full-on revolution in some countries.
5. Governments will link the vaccine passport with a social credit score, that will dictate access to life. People won't be able to leave their house without the correct social credit score.
6. Further down the line, beyond 2022, if misbehaving or if considered of no economic value, access to boosters will be denied. This will constitute a death sentence as people's immune systems will have been damaged so badly they'll soon die when they catch any disease or become rundown generally. 
7. In future, well beyond 2022 but near enough for my children to be affected,  these boosters will no longer be free. They'll cost the recipient their house and their life savings.

Call 2022 the beginning of neo-feudalism if you like. Most people in the western world will become serfs or be very close to that. 

What I am seeing is a two-pronged approach. In 2020, China went to war. Countries such as Australia and New Zealand may have already been given up as they sit on a part of the globe that is not easily defended.

The west responded to this attack by becoming authoritarian and its citizens surrendered their freedoms with barely a whimper. Governments don't trust the people, they never have. China effectively helped democratic countries seize power, but I think this was an unintended result of their actions, not something they came up with as a Machiavellian plot. 

For the everyman, is there a way out? Yes, most definitely there is. But it requires the people to rise up en masse. It requires police and the military to refuse unlawful orders. And in dealing with China, they need to be isolated, their trade routes shut down. This would soon bring them to heel. 

Sunken Civilisations

Here's a really good account of how the Black Sea evolved and the civilisations that lived along its shores. Every part of the documentary is priceless, but if impatient skip to the 45 minute mark for riveting stuff.

The Dark Age Looms

I am embedding a YouTube documentary which looks at the end of the Bronze Age. What followed was a dark age that lasted hundreds of years. The written word largely disappeared, civilisation destroyed; not much is known about this dark age as so little written evidence survives. What happened? It is likely a number of things brought on the sudden end of the Bronze Age. Climate change, pressure on resources, war, population growth and the attendant migration, they're all part of it.

We are now witnessing the end of our world. The end of Western Civilisation. War has contributed to this decline, as has climate change. But overarching this is the loss of identity. The West no longer believes in itself, it pulls itself down at every opportunity and is defeated before if even gets out of bed in the morning. What will follow this crash, the crash to end all crashes, will be a dark age that will last hundreds of years. When will this crash occur? The precise timing is unclear, we cannot be certain. But it will happen within the next 200 years. When it does happen, the crash will be sudden as a tipping point will have been reached. Cities will burn and people will die.

In 3,000 years time they'll be talking about this time and what happened exactly. There will be different theories about the collapse of our age, that it was inevitable, they (that's us) failed to heed the message. They'll marvel at how advanced our technology seemed, that we set foot on the moon. They'll wonder why they had to reinvent everything, finally doing much better but it was so hard, and these earlier people (yes, that's us again) often had the answer but thought little of the future.

Of course our language and much of our written history will have gone. They'll know of our existence by digging up remains and sifting through our landfills.

Please view the video, then try to tell me I'm wrong.
