To tell you the "truth" Hedges did disappointi me during COVID. He simply went along with the official security state narrative, go figure.

Oh yeah! A major disappointment. Like so, so many on the (so-called) “left” who are deeply closeted (?) statists. When I consider various labels, I’m more anarchistic than anything.

I call them Chomsky gatekeepers. 😁

If you made that into a meme, I’d steal it. 🎯

The gates to hell, or is that being a bit too judgemental?

Btw, it was also awful to discover that many in the Medical Freedom Movement are Zionists.

Every crisis reveals contradictory ideologies.

“Every crisis reveals contradictory ideologies.” Ain’t that the truth! Many of us are dealing and coping with major internal struggles and contradictions and opposition. I sure struggle with (and against) resignation and despair.

If you think about it cynically, it might be a deliberate way for the techno/fascists to segment populations triggering internal strife.

Ha! When it comes to the fascist technocrats engineering social responses — and I think that they have their opposition pretty much figured out using game theory and psychological war games — my only response is to think cynically. “Scratch a cynic and underneath you will find a disappointed idealist.” If we cultivate the awareness of the triggering of internal strife (and I’m more in need of this life lesson probably than yourself), then we can realize that this is exactly what the enemy wants, in order to keep us feeling powerless. Powerful people organize. The enemy is extremely well organized, or so it seems to me. Impotent people feel isolated and withdrawn. Withdrawn people usually descend into despair and resignation.

Frankly, I don’t know how a resistance to the techno-fascists will materialize. It sure seems necessary to me. To not organize seems suicidal.

Exactly. They want the people who resist to feel alienated and depressed becoming either suicidal or drug addicted. The ghouls knew the lockdowns would result in tragedy for billions worldwide. And now the Gaza slaughter is creating intense internal social conflict.

Yep. And combine the Israeli state’s slaughter of the Gazans — with the Zionist-occupied American government’s aid, obviously — with the revelation that the CIA has been active in the Ukraine for ten years building military intelligence bases, the internal social conflict is only going to get more intense. And combine THAT with a huge influx of desperate economic refugees. (And who knows the motives of the migrants who are arriving for political and non-economic reasons?!) What happens if (when?) there’s another Great Recession and the government can’t pay welfare obligations combined with higher unemployment and inflation. Maybe America is just beginning to experience “intense internal social conflict.” And maybe, just maybe, this will be the catalyst for the commoners to organize.

Whitney Webb has a good article about the motives surrounding the border crisis.

Gary is busy doing what you advised -

(Gary digs his own hole and lets himself go-This is what he wrote just after chatting with you here.)

GARY-S WRITES-

''What’s on my mind? An organized resistance movement......I think that there needs to be a rebellion.''

'' The masses love their chains. They love the whip of the overseer. They love to be led, coerced, dominated. They love — as a collective — to submit & to consent to their rulers. They are compliant and obedient. (And by “the mass[es]”... I mean “the public”,

(Gary clearly is full of stereotypes,cliched prejudice and self importance/elitism. /Gary hates the public as slave-minded masochists, and thinks he is different and somehow superior. Does he imagine they will turn to him to rule them?)

''The only resistance movement I have any expectation of, in terms of an organized rebellion, is an assembly of individuals who completely and adamantly object to the mindset of the mass AND who are willing to fight against the State to the death. Then maybe, just maybe, a benign form of government might manifest. But one where “the consent of the governed” is recognized as a gigantic lie.''

(He wants people who OBJECT TO THE MASS. ie he is AGAINST NORMAL PEOPLE and their inclinations. Gary imagines that governments JUST MANIFEST , he really is dangerously mentally ill.)

Is Gary serious ; '' fight against the State to the death''

Ironically Gary is close to a ' deathly state' himself.

Gary is fkn POISON everyone. Engage at your own risk !
