The left and right are a false dichotomy. It's truth versus lies. That's the real battle.

I agree as the establishment is pro-authoritarian. It needs statism or authority to realize its desired outcomes or end state.

That is why I subscribe to a libertarian mindset.

You never lived in the Beltway. I associated with a lot of journalists when I was living in Alexandria, VA. Believe me, they are left wing ideologues. They view journalism as promoting their cause, not about informing the public and just reporting facts.

Were you there in 2003, when they were sucking dick to sell the Iraq War? I know what these fuckers are, propagandists. They have no integrity, whatsoever.

Look at who ran CNN and how chummy he was with the Democrat National Committee.

Stop pretending you do not know this as far as conflicts of interest within the corporate or mainstream media.

Look, the US is at war with Syria in part because Genie Energy made an agreement with Israel in 2011 or so, to mine oil resources in the Golan Heights. Guess who is on the "Strategic Advisory Board"?

Oh look, there's Rupert Murdoch, the "right winger", who had the "communist left winger" Barack Obama start that war for him.

There is two sides, but it's not left and right, There's the criminal syndicates, and you and me.

And I use to be friends in college with students who were studying communications and journalism through an outdoor environmental group. They had the same mentality than the School of Social Work.

Well, they sold out.

All of them did. What you see, are entirely unprincipled scum. That's our "news" media. Complete prostitutes. I used to think Rachael Maddow was respectable, because she criticized (correctly) the Iraq War. She was a lesbian, a little ugly, and she got criticized for being a lesbian and a bit ugly, but not for being wrong, entirely superficial criticism. I respected her, and then she became a fucking slut prostitute for the Libyan and Syrian war.

These people pretend to have principles, they don't actually have them.

I have seen within my OWN GROUP of friends, how unprincipled they are. It's disgusting. I used to think they were just scum, it's just I'm far more impervious to propaganda than they are, but I still realize, I can be a victim of it. They think I am an "anti-vaxxer" and a "nazi' now. I've not changed, I just can't convince my stupid asshole friends that they are being misled. Smart people, I never realized how stupid they were.

I genuinely feel stupid for thinking at any point these people were smart, or respectable.

You either have principles, or you have nothing. Most people have nothing. Perhaps 10% of the people I know have actual principles, and I'm supposedly living in a society of geniuses, in Silly Con Valley. We're not smart, but we're dangerous.

When I watched C Span broadcast Bill Clinton's first inauguration, I recall the reporter for C-Span interviewing a Democrat voter who was attending the event.

As a F-117 stealth fighter flew over, the reporter asked the Democrat voter if he thought it was the wrong message to have that airplane participate in the inauguration event. The Democrat voter said no, because it is "our military" now.

Maddow is going to support her cult leader (Obama) no matter what, so why engage the theater of acting disappointed or surprised ?

That's what I bitch about constantly, the theater.

Partisans, they're irrelevant. A democrat would vote for Hitler himself he ran on the Democratic ticket, and a republican would vote for Stalin if he ran on the Republican ticket.

Partisans don't matter. They are just gravel, dirt. They don't think at all. I have no respect for these "people(?)".

I don't want to hear from cultists, I prefer principled people, and they are desperately rare. I am so far beyond the left/right false dichotomy you can't even imagine it. It's a criminal syndicate, and the rest of us, and you think that's probably hyperbole, that I'm being outrageous, I'm exaggerating. No, that's precisely what it is. I oppose it. We have a contract with the government called the Constitution, they are violating it therefore we don't have a government, we have a criminal syndicate only.

You have no concept of how fucking pissed off I am. How disgusted I am with my "fellow citizens". Fucking cowards and morons. They won't even speak up, or they are too stupid to be able to speak up.

If I thought murder or assassination would change it, I'd engage in it, but it won't change it. The real basic problem is waking up the stupid fucking sheep. That's the problem, they don't even see a fucking problem.

This is a real fucking thing for me:

I have a tendency to simply ignore people's opinions about why, that was a useful video to know what happened.

I have a hard time believing these vaccines are as bad as she makes it out to be, but it would be interesting if they are.

At this point, I just think people are stupid to trust the establishment. It's not as if there haven't been PLENTY of warnings. Honestly at this point, if every single person who got the vaccine died within the next 8 years, I'll blame them as much as the government.

Glenn Greenwald's husband, David Miranda, passed away today. He was only 37. He died of a gastrointestinal infection.

To die at 37 from something like that implies an impaired immune system. Could be AIDS related, or the vaxx, or something else.

He was hospitalized for 9 months.

AIDs isn't the disease it once was either, protease inhibitors are tremendously effective. I'm wondering if it wasn't a perforated colon, not that I should speculate. It does seem like a weird thing to die from at 37 so something unusual had to be going on, or to have happened.

Fisting could perforate a colon. Just saying.

Patrick says

Fisting could perforate a colon. Just saying.

Yup.

David Miranda was 37 when he died nearly 38 (his died just before his birthday). Glenn Greenwald married him (or at least he was his spouse) in 2005. 2023-2005 = 18. 38-18 = 20.

Greenwald is 56. 56-18 = 38. I think Greenwald was a little too old for him. Well, a lot too old.

Going to be blunt. How do you speak up? All it seems like is you bitching here and not actually doing anything. What have you done? What elected position or part of government did you get involved in or change? Bitching at a city or county board meeting does little to nothing. You understand they're not listening. They think you're an idiot. I'm on a board and deal with those types. We put our invisible ear plugs in.

Until you get on any board or government agency, you're doing nothing except whining to people on Patnet. The past is the past, we fucked up in the ME, but every comment you make has to bring that up. Bitching about it doesn't change the future. For fucks sakes people owned black people at one point in our history. CA is getting all hung up on that with this reparations for people that NEVER experienced slavery or even knew anyone old enough to recall slavery, even from a great grandparent.

Instead of bitching about the past, fix the future. Otherwise you'll end up with someone else's future and bitch about that in hindsight.

WookieMan says

Going to be blunt. How do you speak up?

Get onto Youtube and Facebook, and get cancelled. You won't get cancelled on Substack. Talk openly with your friends and neighbors, fuck their feelings, explain your thinking, don't get pissed just explain to them what they are oblivious about. Don't be afraid of being "the nut".

Eventually you find somebody that can think. It's rare, but eventually you do, and they spread it on.

But silence == consent. Realize that's really true.

WookieMan says

All it seems like is you bitching here and not actually doing anything. What have you done?

I daresay that this board might be much more proUkrainian and anti-Russian if I wasn't here to tell you that the US overthrew Ukraine in 2014. I think people would be referring to mainstream "news" a lot more as well, but I think nearly everybody here realizes it's full on propaganda - that I doubt to some extent, Trump did identify it as the "enemy of the people", and it sure as hell is.

I could be deluded though.

WookieMan says

I think WookieMan confirmed that and is saying you need to get in government yourself if you want to fix anything. Even a local school board or county commission. TBP pushes getting into Republican precincts as a way to push out RINOs.

That is why I subscribe to a libertarian mindset.

In a libertarian society, people could get together and agree voluntarily to elect representatives, then they could offload policing and protecting their property with gangs, called police, then they could offload the work of educating children by allowing their representatives to create schools...

Libertarianism is like Austrian economics, it's not really a system, it's a hypothesis.

HeadSet says

Look, we spent 4 years watching the government simply ignore Trumps orders when he was president. Did you forget that?

He ordered a withdrawal from Syria, and the military simply IGNORED this. In fact, they lied about it.

I'm NOT a huge fan of Greg Hunter, however, his guest Mark Crispin Miller makes good points and explains how Propaganda effects us all. You can't escape it, even if you're FULLY aware of how it works.

You're better off a bit (quite a bit!) if you understand it, but at the same time, it puts you at odds with society that DOESN'T understand it. Many Americans, still, don't think our government engages in propaganda. Propaganda CAN be true as well, that's an important point to make, however, a lot of it is false, but it exists for a reason - why?

I don't mind true propaganda, however, when it's true, there needs to be full explanations as to why it's true. If you can't find that, it's almost always false.

I think it's just to drag the dummy liberals through their "logic" so they can understand their own point of view.

Ever ask somebody that "hates Trump" what is so awful about him, and they will say stuff like "oh he's racist", and then you ask for examples, and they can't name any? When they realize this, they will accuse YOU of ignorance "what you don't know????"

There's a lot of people who are so ignorant that they have absolutely no idea what is going on, HOWEVER they may very well spend a great deal of time listening to "news", without having any idea they don't learn anything at all.

There's people who are entirely propagandized. They have strong feelings, but they have no basis for having them. All they do is hear the same thing over and over and over again, and are convinced it's true, without ever once checking to see if it IS true and if you confronted them about it, they then get embarrassed, because they then realize they have no basis for their belief, and the NEXT step is usually anger because you've just exposed them as a fraud. You've caught them in a lie, repeating propaganda, and being a fool.

This is why 'democracy' doesn't scale well beyond the local level.

Trollhole says

This is why 'democracy' doesn't scale well beyond the local level.

I disagree.

IF we had a well-informed population it would scale OK.

The problem is we don't have a well-informed public. If you tell a normie that "the news is all propaganda and bullshit", they'll think you're nuts. If you try to prove to them that you have good reasoning to conclude this, they think you're even more crazy. It's impossible to reach people.

I was just talking to my neighbor about 5 minutes ago about this. I have a friend which I simply cannot convince that we overthrew Ukraine. I've shown him the Victoria Nuland / Geoffrey Pyatt intercepted phone call. I proved this happened on or before January 4th 2014, in the call they are picking out the next "leader" of Ukraine who became Prime Minister. Well, Viktor Yanukovych left (fled) office on Feb 22th, 2014.

Well, he didn't read it in the Economist, so I'm crazy. He needs "an authority" to tell him. It's so weird. He's not stupid by any measure, but he's highly propagandized and he believes he's very intelligent (more intelligent than me anyhow), so anything I try to tell him, he simply disbelieves.

I am seriously having difficulty thinking of many people as being "human" at this point, seriously. There's people I can talk with who will at first think what I'm saying is crazy, BUT they will check on what I've said, and find out I'm right. 10% of the people are like this. My parents aren't, my siblings aren't. One of my neighbors is, a few of my friends are and it's getting increasingly difficult to respect people who are afraid to come to any other conclusion than what they've heard in some propaganda piece.

Added difficulty is that what is said on CNN and VERY different from what is said in the Economist. The Economist will have a more complicated intricate explanation for something - so my friend knows CNN is garbage but he can't imagine the Economist is just different garbage. You really can't get the truth of any major event in any "reliable sources" at all.

Wait - that's ALMOST true. You can get the truth from a major source, if there's no official US policy position on it yet.


original link

TRUE original source: https://www.cnn.com/2014/09/02/world/europe/ukraine-crisis/index.html

That's a CNN report from September 20014 on the civil war between East and West Ukraine. They don't explain the origins of the civil war (that was the coup), but they acknowledge there's a civil war.

It's been a little over 9 years since the coup. I listen and pick stuff up, that's how I get all this stuff. There's ALWAYS some marginalized person that will discuss this because they think they have a moral duty to discuss it. I don't remember how I found out but I always find out. I'll hear a piece here, and there, and somewhere else, then the puzzle parts fall together and you have a complete picture. I didn't know anything about Ukraine in 2013, and honestly don't know much about it now. I didn't even know about their so-called Orange Revolution in 2005 until a few weeks ago. That might have been an attempted RUSSIAN coup, not CIA.

Viktor Yanukovych was running for election then and he originally WON, but after a revote, it was Viktor Yushchenko that won. Yanukovych won in 2010, and from what I've HEARD he was legitimately elected in that as well.

Who knows? For all I know Viktor Yanukovych lost both times, and seized power in 2010? There's no way to know. My objection is the US engineered a coup there, that led to a civil war, and now there's a proxy war between the US and Russia. 300,000 Ukrainians have SAID to been killed. Is this number accurate? No idea, but at the time time, I don't see how it's possible Ukraine will "win" this war. Russia is going to take land from Ukraine, Ukraine is going to be SLAVES to the EU because they are "borrowing" money, not being given it. It's just a disaster. The country seems to have a schism between East and West, they should just part and go their own way. I just regard this war as more money wasted and a bunch of people being killed for nothing.

From what I've heard from the VERY few Russians I've talked to, they don't even really think about the war, and there is MORE support for Putin, not less. Russians are defiant. It's just a mess. I hate US foreign policy. Either it's so goddamned complicated and the chess board is so complex I cannot see it, or our foreign policy is run by morons, OR it's run by traitors. If it was just a super complicated chess board, I'd think somebody could explain it, but it's all just a bunch of propaganda for explanations. The closest I can get to what I think it honest, is Paul Craig Roberts - if thinks the Neocons that run our foreign policy are insane and I think it's that or they are traitors.

A lot of Jewish oligarchs (meaning Israeli tied Israeli agents) were thrown out of Russia or imprisoned by Putin starting around 2000. I know a few people (not personally really, more know OF them), that make the case that Israel has a very real criminal syndicate in it, and they have agents outside of their country acting as parasites in host countries. Well, if that's true, Russia dealt with them. This war, to them, is nothing more than an attempt to get revenge, and with a lot of luck, remove Putin as revenge. I don't think they will be successful.

Putin isn't like a Trump in Russia, he's not seen as some great reformer, my general feeling is that he's viewed as "the president that Russia needs". He's got around 70% support in Russia IF I'm to believe what I read, and I skeptical of everything I read. I'm certain he has more than 50% support. Much better than Biden in any case.

BTW - since I'm a blabber motermouth rant, I want to point out that CNN at one point was showing as "proof" that Russia invaded Ukraine back in 2015, Russian and Ukrainians on a battlefield. Those series of videos were taken when Ukraine and Russia were carrying out joint military maneuvers a few years prior, when they were allies still. That's how dishonest our media is. Some astute observer picked up on it, found the original RUSSIAN news source that contained the videos, and linked them. The US has claimed that Russia "had invaded" Ukraine MANY times, before Russia actually did. Remember the story of the "mobile crematoriums"? Our government has NO RESPECT for us, none.

I can't believe anybody believes them anymore, after the "mobile weapons labs". Imagine trying to create a chemical weapon in a TRUCK you're driving around. That stuff is TOXIC. Sarin is a orderless, tasteless liquid that if you inhale just a LITTLE BIT - you're dead in 1 to 10 minutes. The LD50 is 172 μg/kg. You could kill somebody with a drop, not even that. Now, supposedly the story is our government actually believed that Hussein had a bunch of "mobile weapons labs", driving around with that shit inside of it. That stuff is terrifying. You can't even vent the vapors safely into the atmosphere. Just crazy people work with that. Nuts.

Want to know what actually happened on 9/11? This is Part II. I'll print Part I in the next post.

It was US intelligence, and Israeli intelligence that did it. The terrorist are unwitting dupes that killed themselves in Jihad, which is precisely what the US intelligence and Israeli intelligence wanted them to do. You know how the FIB recruits people to do terrorist attacks, then arrests them before they can do it, and then shout about how they stopped a terrorist attack?

CIA does the same thing, except they allow the attack to happen and even assist in making it happen.
