  1. Remember the Syrian Refugee crisis? aka the rape of greece, where all aiports, ports, and train stations were sold to european corporates? Greece could have paid their debts, with massive oil reserves in their seas. Now who will drill for that oil?

    1. Paradise, Lahina….they want a bigger piece of the clean up pie. Why wait for the real estate profits? Hit the ground running with fee flow starting day 1 on the clean up. Optimizing profits.

        Superbugs caused by antibiotic resistance are a rising threat. Here’s how we can beat them

        Superbugs caused by antibiotic resistance are a rising threat. Here’s how we can beat them
        Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), also known as antibiotic resistance, is a major health concern. It occurs when microbes, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi, become resistant to the drugs used to treat them.

        1. Had trouble reading beyond this:
          -How Business Can Fight Populism (SSIR)
          -Can taxes make businesses more sustainable?
          Don’t know how a person reads this without an empty bucket next to them.

  2. “They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”
    F Scott Fitzgerald certainly had a way of describing the mentality which has held sway in the Empire for so many generations. The changes are coming sooner rather than later and I agree that the situation and the future are fluid… and thus worth fighting for at every level, local, national and global.
    I must constantly remind myself of Mr Rappaport’s deathless quote – “hopelessness is an OP!”

      1. “Rise like Lions after slumber In unvanquishable number, Shake your chains to earth like dew Which in sleep had fallen on you — Ye are many — they are few.” PB Shelley
        I’m increasingly leaning on poetry and literature to keep my pecker up! Countless works over centuries, nay millenia remind us that the difficulties and seemingly insurmountable odds we face are nothing new. Scriptural works such as the Gideon story are an even starker reminder of course!

          1. Thanks for this. I relish anything by or with Paul Kingsnorth so I’ll tuck into this later!
            He’s currently sharing practical efforts to disengage from The Machine in such a simple and refreshing way too – weekly accounts of the 50 Holy Wells he visited this year in Ireland. One of my weekly highlights!
            Reading the likes of him and Mary Harrington wrestling with our culture is a joy. Two formerly ‘liberal/left’ writers who are honest enough to follow their insights wherever the truth leads them; a reminder of what a public thinker should be.

          2. Great article!

            We know that real markets driven by price discovery are given a bad name by opaque “markets” pumped by debt and insiders. This does not mean that markets are bad.

            The real internet is much larger than the handful of “social media” companies with questionable algorithms and agendas. The old internet is still there, e.g see https://search.marginalia.nu/ which indexes 100 million pages using a single $5000 server.

            “Technology” eventually comes down to physics and mathematics, which are properties of the physical universe, i.e. they originate in nature. They can no more be boycotted than oxygen and water. Instead, we can all learn how to evolve local tech to serve local human and spiritual goals, rather than remote mass manipulation.

            As for Ahriman, remember that John Dee, cryptographer to Queen Elizabeth, was studying how to communicate with spirits. No computers were needed.

            https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/john-dees-life-shows-sciences-magical-roots-180963985/

            John Dee, born on this day 490 years ago, was Queen Elizabeth I’s scientific advisor–but he was also a magician. He carried on a lengthy conversation with spirits. But he was also a Cambridge-educated scientist who did postgraduate work with the likes of Gerardus Mercator, a cutting-edge mapmaker in a time where maps were–as today–essential technology. 

            https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2014/11/10/from-shakespeare-to-the-nsa/

            almost every technique or principle that Friedman and others helped to invent is really something of a reinvention …The Renaissance created a matrix of unique conditions that caused codes and ciphers to flourish. A network of diplomats peppered around Europe needed to be able to transmit news and advice confidentially. And the tremendous increase in printing spawned a reactionary need to control information.

            LLMs (“AI”) are entirely dependent on data. That data comes from humans. But like a student in a library, the choice of books, data and author is important. We can choose the data used to train LLMs. We can choose the prompts used to query LLMs for local needs. LLMs are not creative intelligence, but the speed of LLMs can help humans with many tasks, the cost of which is going to plummet.

            What we don’t need is a new caste of techno-priest AI wranglers to save the ignorant peasants. As the movie Ratatouille said, “Everyone can cook!”

          3. Amen. AI brings phenomenal processing speed. But anything that is limited to 1 and O is limited in types of intelligence.

          4. A truly brilliant essay. He is definitely on to something… the feel of a spirit inhabiting the digital realm is one I can increasingly discern. My gut says to get away from it as much as possible while retaining the true benefits of the access to great writing such as this! Much to chew on

          1. “We will grieve not, rather find
            Strength in what remains behind;
            In the primal sympathy
            Which having been must ever be;
            In the soothing thoughts that spring
            Out of human suffering;
            In the faith that looks through death”
            Wow! Wonderful.

    1. One of my favorite quotations, which I use, and authors, such rich and dreamy descriptions of life before technocracy. Thanks.

  3. I’ve continued on with the audio book, “The True Story of the Bilderberg Group” that I mentioned in a post a few days ago. About the 3 hour mark begins Chapter 10 and mentions Edward M House, who was an advisor to Pres Wilson 1913-1921. House was a known Marxist and was instrumental in the formation of the Federal Reserve. He also pushed for the Federal Income Tax in 1916. ?‍♂️ I look forward to watching the link Catherine provided of her interview with the author, Daniel Estulin, in 2017. I also will watch the link that Pamela provided about Grand Theft World and the rumble link Marlene provided on the globalist shadow government in replies to my previous post. Thanks to all.

  4. Dear John,
    I read that carbonated water its not healthy. More importantty anything in a can or plastic bottle (bisphebnol-A) is definitely not healthy so if you are looking for a healthy drink for for something in a glass bottle.

  5. Catherine, Don’t you think that Bayer was forced or snookered to buy Monsanto as part of tptb’s plan to wage its economic WW3 on Germany? They targeted VW with the emissions violations scandal, then started the Ukraine war/bombed the pipeline, now they’re after the German chemical industry.

    1. Very likely. Question is how they snookered them. I have always wondered if the Clintons promised that a Hillary win would assure that DOJ would keep a lid on the courts – or some such thing.

      1. Remember when mobile phone leaders Nokia and RIM made illogical leadership decisions and vaporized tens of billions of market cap, making room for a global iOS-Android oligopoly? Did insiders approve or benefit from the destruction? Who shorted those stocks on the way down?
        https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/nok/market-cap/

        https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/bb/market-cap/
        We need updated playbooks on defense against economic warfare, piratization and separation of good assets from bad liabilities, at both the national and corporate levels, with incentives for directors to resist harvesting and destruction.

  6. John is absolutely right about the dominant comic book company in the US, but he pulled his punch by saying that all the super villains are “white guys.” Come on John, tell all please.
