Attacks on dissent have ramped up. The Organic Prepper was just downgraded, as Daisy wrote about recently. We’re not alone.
It’s not just alternative media sites like ZeroHedge or Mercola. Mainstream media turns on their own people the second they ask the wrong questions. For example, in 2020 and 2021, British nursing educator and YouTuber Dr. John Campbell spouted the official Covid narrative, assuring everyone that the shots were safe and effective. He was considered a trusted purveyor of health information. However, in 2021, he discussed data surrounding ivermectin usage and thought it showed promise. His Wikipedia page was immediately changed to label him a purveyor of misinformation.
Downgrading websites and professional humiliation have not been the only methods used to crush dissent.
Tucker Carlson just did a segment outlining the FBI’s attacks on Joe Biden’s political opponents.
Watch for yourself. Someone filmed Trump advisor John Eastman getting his phone confiscated by the FBI. He repeatedly asks them for a warrant, which they don’t give him until after taking his phone. He’s never been charged with anything. This is a clear violation of the Fourth Amendment.
But our current crop of politicians seems to find the Constitution outdated.
Right now, First Amendment rights are being violated on a massive scale. It’s getting more and more difficult to communicate online unless you adhere to specific narratives. As far as this site is concerned, most of our facts come from blue-checked sources or personal experiences. We just ask people to think about what’s being presented and how it may affect their day-to-day lives.
There should be nothing wrong with asking people to do their own research and think for themselves, but unfortunately, that’s been labeled “malinformation.” The Election Infrastructure Government Coordinating Council says, “Malinformation is based on fact, but used out of context to mislead, harm, or manipulate.”
Well, who decides the official context? The entire definition is predicated on the notion that one context exists. Anything outside of that lumps you in with malicious actors.
So, what’s behind the current push to bury alternative news?
Maybe it’s because things are finally crashing. I think mainstream media wants us to stay mad at each other over abortion rights, gay rights, or whatever current thing will distract us. They don’t want us to pay attention to the real issues. Notice how NewsGuard tried to get Daisy to declare a side?
They want us to divide ourselves into camps. They do not want us sitting back, watching, thinking, and supporting each other in our various prepping endeavors.
Sure, there are plenty of people that still laugh at prepping. But time keeps proving the conspiracy theorists right. In November 2020, the OP published an article about so-called conspiracy theories that had come true that year. A lot of people are seeing that the narrative pressed by our government administration and major news outlets simply doesn’t match up with what they encounter in their day-to-day lives. The public is gradually becoming more open to alternative explanations, but the people currently holding power cling to it more and more tightly. They know they can’t win via reasoned debate, so they kick anyone they dislike off social media platforms or make it impossible for small, independent sites to make enough money to stay operational.
The public is becoming more open to alternative news because disaster signals are all around us. The OP has run multiple articles about food and energy crises, but honestly, they just get worse every minute. It’s not just American policies either. Politicians throughout the Western world, on the one hand, decry inflation and “price gouging,” but on the other, implement policies that throw fuel on the fire.
For example, on June 10, the Dutch government issued a plan to curb nitrogen emissions by between 12 and 70 percent. The government freely admitted that “There is not a future for all [Dutch] farmers within [this] approach.”
This defies reason.
The Netherlands is the world’s fifth-largest food exporter, and they’re forcing farmers out of business for the sake of “climate change” as people in Third World countries starve.
Meanwhile, in the U.S., our own government continues to make life harder and harder for farmers to do business. The Securities and Exchange Commission wants companies to disclose their carbon emissions throughout their entire supply chain.
The kind of legal and technical expertise that this kind of reporting requires will push small, independent companies, including farms, out of business.
The SEC is still finalizing plans regarding the implementation of its reporting requirements. Issues such as this greatly influence what food is available and how much we pay for it. But are we hearing about this from politicians? No, they’re too busy blaming Russia, and the above-referenced article is not front-page news.
The energy situation warrants our attention as well. President Biden has been blaming everyone from Russians to gas station owners for high prices, but what has he done this week?
On July 1, the Department of the Interior invited comments for its Proposed Five-Year Program for Offshore Oil and Gas Leasing.
Without getting overly technical, when we were energy independent during the Trump administration, the Draft Proposed Program proposed 47 lease sales for future oil and gas projects. The current administration is asking people to weigh in on whether we should have eleven or zero. What this means is that we will definitely be producing less energy. The only question is, how much less.
Our administration does not try to hide its agenda. Secretary Deb Haaland said, “From Day One, President Biden and I have made clear our commitment to transition to a clean energy economy. Today, we put forward an opportunity for the American people to consider and provide input on the future of offshore oil and gas leasing. The time for the public to weigh in on our future is now.”
Well, with Biden’s historically low approval ratings, I’m pretty sure the public is weighing in.
The administration is just not listening.
And Europe keeps going from bad to worse. Protests over fuel prices have erupted. Spanish farmers are blocking highways, and Dutch fishermen are blocking ports. Dutch farmers have also been spraying their government buildings with manure to protest the climate regulations. The S is literally HTF in the Netherlands right now.
Norwegian oil workers are striking because their pay has not increased at a rate commensurate with inflation. This will hit the rest of Europe particularly hard because, after Russia, Norway is Europe’s biggest energy provider.
My 25-year-old idealistic self might have thought people are being greedy and that we should all band together for the sake of Ukraine, climate change, or whatever. But lower- and middle-income people worldwide are being asked to make huge sacrifices at the same time that the wealth of billionaires has exploded like never before. By 2020, the wealth of the world’s ten richest men increased from $700 billion to $1.5 trillion. Meanwhile, the rest of us are supposed to eat less meat and take fewer showers. Oh, and hundreds of millions of people in the Global South are at risk of starvation.
(It’s probably a good time to check out our free QUICKSTART Guide to how to starve the beast.)
The stable world in which most of us grew up is falling apart, and we have a right to know why.
We have a right to know what policies have led to such dramatic wealth transfers; why we were energy independent only three years ago and now are begging the Saudis for more oil; why young parents can’t find formula; why much of the U.S. no longer feels like a First World nation.
And we have the right to question the mainstream narrative. Whether you’re a trucker coping with $6/gal diesel or a medical technician short on laboratory supplies, problems surround us all. And yet we’re just being told to point fingers at Russia and corporate greed.
The ability to discuss problems publicly facilitates understanding and, hopefully, solutions.
The lockdowns during Covid had some unexpected effects. Look at remote schooling. On the one hand, it was miserable, particularly for lower-income children. However, it gave parents a chance to see what children are actually being taught in schools, which has led to parental pushback against divisive education programs
Parents became more informed and took action.
In my area, the already-stark divisions between urban and rural became more so. Driving downtown in the city for much of 2020, it was a ghost town; in the town where I get my animals processed, the only change was that I saw more children out and about. I saw kids riding shotgun as their parents hauled cattle trailers because the schools were closed and, well, you can’t process cattle remotely.
Many people holed up dutifully as we were all told to quarantine. For those of us that couldn’t, for one reason or another, we started talking a lot more.
(Want uninterrupted access to The Organic Prepper? Check out our paid-subscription newsletter.)
Klaus Schwab saw Covid as an opportunity to “reimagine” society.
You know what? I see it as a chance to reimagine things too. I see it as a chance for people in all parts of the economy to openly discuss what’s going on. If enough people from enough different walks of life can listen to each other, we may find some common solutions. The real division is not so much red vs. blue. It is people that just want to work, raise their kids, and leave everyone else alone vs. autocrats and those willing to game the system.
Authoritarian control and regulatory overreach are behind most of our current problems. We may get most emotional over Roe vs. Wade, or trans rights, or whatever, but the reasons why so many people cannot pay bills and are using their credit cards to buy gas are not “culture war”-type issues.
Our problems right now stem from decades of letting local control slip through our fingers. At this stage of the game, I’m not sure I see a way to fix our problems without a great deal of economic stress and uncertainty.
But, as preppers, we hope for the best and plan for the worst, and right now, increasing numbers of people want to plan for the worst. Sites like the OP are here for people that want to start planning.
Americans have a long history of making do.
Whether you want to become more self-sufficient by producing your own food, energy or even homeschooling your kids, we all have options to exercise a little more control over our own lives.
The Founding Fathers never envisioned the U.S. as a globe-spanning empire where everyone lives in a cushy suburb and has access to every possible convenience. The U.S. was simply supposed to be a country where, if you worked hard and were honest, you could keep the fruits of your labor. I would love it if, after the current upheavals, we could go back to that, but we have to make it through what our president has called this “incredible transition” first.
There are still a lot of resourceful, hardworking, independent people out there, people who can survive a lot. But we will all function better if we can communicate with each other, both for practical advice and emotional support. Collectively, we have a lot to share if we can avoid being divided and distracted.
What are your thoughts on this silencing of dissent? What do you believe it warns of? How do you plan to deal with this in the coming days? Share your opinions in the comments…while we still can.

The FBI has made its slavery to the left and to the ccp and to the khabbalists their nom de plume.
They’re slaves to the right as well. If you think any politician in any of the two major parties is not in the business of telling you what and how to think, tell me why they are constantly doing campaigns. If they were doing the right thing for the right reasons, there would be no need for them to browbeat you with it all the time.
If you think the FBI has become slaves to the Right, you haven’t been paying attention.
Indeed.
Hilarious.

Great article – really enjoyed your writing style, and I will definitely be passing this on. Thank you!
The Left is losing and they are increasingly desperate. They pulled every lever available to get thier empty suit elected so they could enact thier ideology but, eeeeck, its all failing, dismally. Worse, that failure is build a series of backlashes they will feel in 2022 & 2024. In 6 short months, they wont matter, thier ideology wont matter, thier woke freakshow circus wont matter.
Doc, I fear the libtards will still matter in 6 months, because we aren’t doing nearly enough about election fraud. The citizens will vote them out by large margins, but the mules, and the dead, and Chinese computers, etc. etc. etc. will stuff as many fake ballots and destroy enuf citizen ballots to “win” the elections for criminals again. One reason is because the criminals are not just Democrats. Look at the “Republican” election officials and others–they got their positions by cheating, too. Have you done anything to check out your county’s voter rolls, or other county officials?
What percentage of our politicians on both sides of the aisle are bought and paid for by China? I’m talking federal and all the way down to local.
I’d hazard a guess, but I’d probably be waaay too low.
It’s failing? By what measure, the 5 dollar a gallon gas they have achieved, or the 20% inflation. And they got 7 out of 10 idiotic Americans to commit slow motion suicide. As that is their plan, their plan is and will continue to be massively successful.
I don’t know what you expect is going to happen in 2022 and 2024 to change anything. You are UNDER ATTACK on multiple fronts by the same government you think you can change if you just vote hard enough. And it is controlled by people you don’t elect and never heard of that want to rob the world and enslave every man woman and child on earth.
It’s no wonder America will have fallen by 2025, at least any semblance of what we know today. People who should know better don’t.
Doc,
I am inclined to agree.
People who used to be traditional Dems are looking at what their party has become, and are rejecting it. Elon Musk and Bill Maher both see it and have called their party out on it. “I did not leave the party, the party left me.”
We are also seeing various progressives getting voted out of school boards, city councils, DA getting recalled or voted out. Homeschooling is on the increase even post-COVID as woke indoctrination has invaded the public school system.
Flip side is, there are still deep blue cities that continue their progressive agenda, and the people are feeling the harm. Crime rates have increased even into the triple digits. People who can, are fleeing blue cities like Chicago, NYC, San Fran, in droves. The mayors and city councils seem only concerned with pushing the progressive agenda, and not actually managing their cities.
The mid-terms and even 2024, we could see a real change in Congress. Will there really be change? Magic 8 Ball says, “Future unclear.”
The reaction from the radical left is what I am concerned about. As it is, they seem to be getting more and more militant, with the harassment of the SC justices as just one example.
Marie—-wonderful piece…you have great insight and I can see you are a true Patriot who loves this country and its people. Would like to see and read more from you…hang tough God Bless
Thanks for the timely article. As someone excluded from commenting on most sites, it’s great to read articles that recognize suppression of FREE SPEECH is happening now. Most certainly it is happening to me.
Seems to me, MSM is losing their power to alt-media.
And they do not like that.
Prior to the 2016 election, economist and occasional social commentator Charles H. Smith noted in a article that 90% of media was controlled by just six (6) corporations. Five leaned left and then there was Fox News.
The 2016 election gave birth to activism journalism, where journalists were allowed to ditch their objective journalist integrity, and push their own personal point of view in their writing. That in turn forced those who still adhered to traditional journalism practices out of some MSM.
Pulitzer prize winning journalist Glenn Greenwald quit The Intercept, a news outlet that co-founded, when editors wanted to censor parts of his expose on the Hunter Biden laptop.
Greenwald joined SubStack, as an independent journalist. Others like Bari Weiss, and Matt Taibbi have also moved to SubStack. There, they have larger followings and even paid subscriptions than some MSM outlets. As such, all three have been accused of being alt-right, anti-LBGTQ (note, Greenwald and Weiss are both gay), anti-whatever, and even Trump supporters. What is their sin to have gained such disdain? They point out MSM journalistic failures. Their reporting reflects real journalism and not activist journalism. They call out the absurdity that has gripped MSM. They call out the thin veneer of leftist bias in MSM (with the exception of Fox News).
And people are paying (some literally) attention to them.
Sharyl Attkisson has two quotes that come to mind: 1) “Do your own research, make up your own mind, think for yourself.” 2) “If you’re not allowed to debate it, it’s not science.” Those really applied during the COVID crazy. But questioning the official narrative, you were a science denier, or wanted to kill grandmaw. And whatever you do, do not try to point out the harm the lockdowns had on everything from the economy, education, mental/physical health etc.
Schwab and the WEF . . . seems to me, their efforts to use COVID crisis (yeah, I laughed too) to re-image the world failed. More people opted out of the jab despite their efforts. Vaccine passports have gone to the wayside. Only the truly devote Branch Covidians still wear their masks as if a talisman to ward off a virus that has a 99.99% survival rate (Note: I had it. I have had boughts of the flu that were worse). More and more studies have come out showing the effectiveness (or lack there of) of various vaccines.
There is a reason Fauci and his partner tried to squash The Great Barrington Declaration (can you say, “Cha-ching?”).
Some would say COVID was a practice run for the WEF et al. I would argue if it was, it also was one for us unwashed masses.
Nailed it. Every point is spot-on, and makes perfect sense. Responses like this are like finding a piece of gold in a pile of manure (most other sites’ comment sections), I’m tempted to copy and paste this to people I know just to save the frustration of trying to explain the basics yet again. But that just wouldn’t feel right. Damn scruples….. 😉 Good stuff.
Howday Dan!
Glad ya liked it!
Feel free to copy and paste away, just cite author (ME!) and source (TOP)! 🙂
Update: In France, the reintroduced(by President Macron and his party) vaccine passport mandate was defeated.
There was great cheering by the people of France.
The U.S. and the E.U. are in the final stages of takeover now:https://leohohmann.com/ Politically there is nothing we can do, politicians do what they are told, ignoring their constituants.
The FBI has NO LAWFUL Standing or Status above the Constitution or the People. They are merely the “Cover-up Crew” for the British/Vatican Banker Cabal, and ALWAYS were. If you are a U.S. Govt. employee or citizen, then you are their SUBJECT and have no Constitutional Guarantees. This is why they gave no Warrant. They do not need to observe the Constitution with their Subjects and Employees. ALL “U.S. citizens” are British/Papal SUBJECTS/SLAVES. Did they not teach you that in Grade School, or High School, or anywhere? WE THE PEOPLE are not U.S. citizens, we are STATE NATIONALS. Get your head out of your @$$, America. Your slumber has brought your SLAVERY, and you never knew it. Too busy looking at your MORON Phone. Too bad it will end in your death. Look around, if you don’t think the Globalists want you DEAD.
Better be figuring out how to become one of the PEOPLE again. Figuring out how they used your Birth Certificate to Unlawfully Convert you into their SUBJECT/SLAVE. They call it a U.S. citizen”, and you agree that you are, unwittingly, because they took that part out of your Schooling – INTENTIONALLY. To ENSLAVE you. Does a snake tell it’s prey it is hiding under the rock?
They cannot cancel those that they did not create. Rush Limbaugh and Joe Rogan are great examples of this truth. Parallel economies will be created, be it a “black market” or something more conventional. TPTB want a world economy and governance, and eventually the people will give it to them, just not how they imagined. There is a world-wide revolution in the works, and when all is said and done there will be established rights for all of the world’s citizens, and the economy will revert from being debt based and all trade will be done with gold and silver again. Governments will be forced to be fiscally responsible and accountable for all money spent, and will not be able to spend that which they do not have. Precious metals have been the only “money” for over 6000 years because they hold there value (purchasing power) in the intrinsic element itself. In 1910 a person could buy a new car for 230 ounces of gold, the same is true today.
“In 1910 a person could buy a new car for 20 ounces of gold,” not 230. -Fat fingers I guess.
These are the muppets that are placed in positions of power to rule us. This is reported to be the president and/or PM of Sri Lanka. Looters and robbers of a nation scurrying aboard two war ships and set sail for..where?

The thugs attacking individual thoughts, othering for engaging in reasonable discourse, and are against our exercising of individual self determined action are, unarguably, pathetic cowards.
There are too many moving parts for anything other than a violent transition to the new order.
Take heart in this video. It won’t be the last one we see like this. Italy may very well be next.
Super article Marie! Please read between the lines of “Laudato si’, the second encyclical of Pope Francis “on care for our common home”. In it, the pope critiques consumerism and irresponsible development, laments environmental degradation and global warming, and calls all people of the world to take “swift and unified global action.” The encyclical, dated 24 May 2015″.. cited from Wikipedia
This “new way forward” prompted worldwide action by the aligned politicians and corporates.. the WEF is just a puppet doing the masters dirty work, but the master pulls the strings as always.
Normal communication has been destroyed over the past 20 years thanks to social media, and convenient covid! Journalism is dead just like Julian Assange that exposed the truth and is now punished for it.
At least someone smashed the Georgia Guide Stones – or was this on purpose..?
It’s sad a piece like this has to be written in our once great country. Indeed, George Orwell’s prediction of humanity will suffer a boot on it’s neck is happening – and worse. We are taking a good ole beatdown. Fists are coming at us from all directions: food shortages, high fuel prices, treasonous politicians, a justice system that is for Just Them, and to top it off, probable nuclear war. ‘Shut up and sit down’ is no longer an option. The Deep State runs our intelligence services who, in turn, run the government media complex.
Dr. Pierre Kory is a three-board certified physician helping thousands of Covid vaxxed-damaged people. He is about to have his licenses taken away to practice medicine. Real medicine. The establishment will not let him defend himself or even debate him on his findings. So much for “Follow the Science.” When you can’t even have a civil discussion with the other side, they leave you with only one choice…
Follow the money. Because climate change is a trillion dollar industry with baked in guilt and fear as an easy marketing / manipulation tool and gullible, innocent, well meaning people believe it like a new religion. I work in marketing and see it on a daily basis how you pretty much don’t get a new client these days without slathering a pitch with ESG and green narratives.
It used to be sex sells, but now its more like green guilt sells…
And that rolls over to politicians who will sell out the farmers and working class, or anyone else for that matter to make a few bucks from green investments and . Org money laundering and position for reelection. These people are evil and China is counting on it and buying it all up as it crumbles.
“This defies reason”
not at all, you simply don’t understand them. you presume they mean well. they don’t. once you understand that then everything they do is quite logical.
“Tucker Carlson: Why are they so angry?”
because they think they are the center of the universe (literally), and they experience any non-compliance as evil (literally).
“The Left is losing and they are increasingly desperate”
actually they’ve been winning, enough that they feel able to drop the deceptive rhetoric and live the dream they’ve sought. but they’ve paraded themselves too soon before securing absolute power, and more people see them for what they are – what they’ve always been – and they recognize that they’re not as victorious as they’d believed. but having begun to live the dream, they cannot stop now, and they will fight to the death – theirs or ours – using any means necessary to beat the catttle into submission to them or to kiill them.
THERE ARE NO MEN IN AMERICA,cowards and chicken shits ,TONS of them,who talk big words,WELL HERES WHAT THE LORD JESUS SAYS..you’ll be dead soon,and see everything you own taken,and your women and children taken away in CHAINS to spend the rest of their life in SLAVERY,but there is a silver lining ,ALL WHO SWORE AN OATH TO GOD,you’ll be the property of SATAN,till the day your cast into the lake of fire..and good riddence..OH,COWARDS WILL NEVER BE ALLOWED INTO HEAVEN..so you men,YOUR FUTURE IS SET IN STONE NOW,95% of you are going to hell…keep licking the government minions ass,your their favorite supporters..as stupid as you are…
I’m not scared of Klaus Schwab, he has no clue about the tenacity of the human spirit, especially the American spirit. And ingenuity. He’d be More intelligent to be weary of freedom loving constitutionalists, we’re not going away, thanks Daisy- you’re seriously smart for such a young person!
” I think mainstream media wants us to stay mad at each other over abortion rights, gay rights, or whatever current thing will distract us. They don’t want us to pay attention to the real issues.” Real issues? One of the most basic of all issues is that of life and death. Abortion is the death of an innocent life. The recent decision by the Supreme Court isn’t a distraction – it’s foundational.
Many of the points in this article are legitimate, but I’m suspicious of anyone trying to get 2 diametrically opposed sides to unify (not be mad at each other). Light has no part with darkness.
As I have taught my 4 Sons over the years – there’s only 2 Amendments that count the 1st & the 2nd but before that comes GOD 1st & Foremost. In the end some of us will Pray First & then use the 2nd Amendment regardless of the outcome. Keep Faith in GOD & keep prepping.
If politicians find the constitution out dated they can resign.
the ones who own the politicians think that they themselves are all the constitution you need.
Folks,
The reason the world is in this pickle is we think it is a problem of men, and men, (the UN, Congress, Trump, Desantis, whoever) will ride in and solve it.
We brought all of this on by our actions, and these stretch back several hundreds of years.
Isaiah 59
“3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.
4 None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.”
This did not start in some little place in China that 99% still cannot find on a map any quicker than they could find Congress Junction, AZ, if they can even find China or AZ.
I’m not holding my breath hoping the UN, in and of itself, will do anything.
This is coming about because God has had just about enough.
Jeremiah 11
“13 For according to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to that shameful thing, even altars to burn incense unto Baal.
14 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up a cry or prayer for them: for I will not hear them in the time that they cry unto me for their trouble.”
God directs all events. If a country or leader is strong, it is of God. If the leaders are a babbling moron and cackling idiot, it is of God.
Daniel 2
“20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
22 He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.”
God uses evil people to accomplish His purpose.
Habakkuk 1:6
“For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces that are not their’s.”
God’s people are to pray for the destruction of the wicked.
Psalm 94:1
“O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.”
Just because the conspirators seem to be winning, they are not.
2 Chronicles 15:5,6
“5 And in those times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great vexations were upon all the inhabitants of the countries.
6 And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.”
Job 12
“24 He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.
25 They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like a drunken man.”
And in the end:
Psalm 54
“10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
11 So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.”
But, remember:
Proverbs 21:31
“The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the Lord.”

However, why are they in office and will they still be in office after the next election cycle?
Jeremiah 5:31

Hint…WE LOVE TO HAVE IT SO.

“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.’”
Isaac Asimov, Newsweek, 21 January, 1980.
“Here is something that the psychologists have so far neglected: the love of ugliness for its own sake, the lust to make the world intolerable. Its habitat is the United States. Out of the melting pot emerges a race which hates beauty as it hates truth.”
L. Mencken
“I’ve learned one thing-people who know the least always seem to know it the loudest.”
Andy Capp
“a cult of ignorance in the United States”
pushed by who?
Seems to me that we the “useless eaters” have been brainwashed into actually believing that all the problems in this world are caused by ourselves when in fact it is the 1% that have caused and implemented virtually every world problem we face today. That would be pollution, insane consumerism, ill health, violence fostered by satan’s army the mainstream media, unending wars, hatred towards others etc etc. The common denominator is ALWAYS the mainstream media. Here in communist Canada our mainstream media is our PM’s weaponry aimed squarely at the “common” people. With their non-stop spewing of lies and hatred towards anyone who dares to think for themselves, MSM is one of the most dangerous, corrupt, evil organizations on the planet. They are worse than any politician because I consider 99.99% of politicians sociopaths, liars, dedicated to satan. I don’t care what political party they are from, birds of a feather flock together. Pigs at my trough. However so-called “journalists” are supposed to answer the 4 Ws – who, what, why, when and also how. Instead these paid shills are devoted to repeating governmental lies from fellow sociopaths, not a shred of journalistic integrity Instead the media is devoted to implementing hell on earth, all for a paycheque and the ego rush of being a “somebody”. Looking forward to the fast approaching day when this evil is held accountable in every way. I’ll give up everything to witness that beautiful beautiful day.
“The common denominator is ALWAYS the mainstream media”
yes. so. who owns and controls that?
Oh boy, a can of worms this article is. If we spent as much energy on becoming more self-sustainable as we did blaming others, we’d be in great shape. And “we” being mostly government. They’ve gotten nice and fat thanks to us. And somehow they continue to do so, along with the billion dollar companies raping us. I expect the next civil war will happen soon, all signs point to it. Unfortunately, I think we are to far gone to be more proactive and civil, it’s time to react.
Huh. Seems pretty good where I’m at. Lots of work, jobs are paying decent wages, there’s some inflation of course, going grocery shopping requires more attention to prices and quantities.
Gun culture is thriving, more people talking about going hunting this year (maybe has something to do with that grocery thing), nice weather this year, I’m healthy… I’m pretty content.
If Jeff Bezos makes a giant pile of money, what do I care? His money isn’t any more or less evil than mine.
This article covered a lot of you-should-be-very-angry ground. But I’m not angry. My composure will probably anger someone.
Misreading The River,
I get what you are saying and for us personally, things are good.
However, over the weekend, we were dinning out with friends and the topic of public education came up. Our server, overheard us and made a comment: She has a son, 10 years old. In his school, they are allowing a child to come to school dressed as a furry.
Yep.
Furry.
The insanity that I thought was just in cities like NYC, nope, it is here.
If I had kids still in school, I would home school them or a private school where they stick to education.
I also look at the crime rates in some cities. Apparently some yahoo has shot several people, killing two at 6 different 7-Elevens in CA. That is just one example.
Just read a Georgetown University professor is calling for the 6 justices on the SC,
““The 6 justices who overturned Roe should never know peace again.”
And for people to,
“accost them every time they are in public.”
This same professor also advocates for censorship. And he is not the only one, as we have seen more and more people in academia and the media call for censorship of everything from COVID misinformation (even when it turns out to be true), to the blackout of the Hunter Biden laptop, to Libs of Tick Tok (I had to look that one up, thought it was a joke, and it is, but not the way I thought it was).
While I too, am not angry.
I am concerned.
It’s worse than you know. In Arizona some public schools are putting kitty litter boxes in the bathrooms for the furries to use. Who gets to clean that mess up?
Just read a Gallup poll finds only 28% of over all Americans have a “great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in public schools.
The break out is:
14% GOP
43% Dems
29% Independents

Welcome to 2030: I Own Nothing, Have No Privacy and Life Has Never Been Better (Tales From the Great Reset)
– Welcome to the year 2030. Thanks to the Great Reset, you will own nothing and you will be happy – just like Ida in her city…

No, I rather like your happy go luck contentment (“misreading the river”). Here is the true secret of life: being content with what you have. However…and it is a big however, as the innocent not-Nazi Germans during 1939 learnt, the evil that overtook them crept up on them gradually, bit by bit so slowly and imperceptibly that as one put it “By the time we realised Hitler Youth and Waffen SS were in full control of the country it was all too late. You got shamed, or worse, if you said anything contrary.” And here’s the problem. Some will sail through the early days but when it gets really bad they may realise, like Aesop’s grasshopper that they should have stored food for Winter rather than play the violin and carouse all Summer. But I don’t want to be a spoilsport. “Good on you,” as we say in Australia. But keep your ear to the ground ! Oliver Perth Western Australia.
To answer your question – why are fossil fuel supplies failing and why now? My essay here explains what some already know. There is no way to prevent the decline:

Civil War doth creep closer. Its pace quickens as it anticipates itself.
I know many view me as a war monger for even contemplating that the current Crises (plural) will result in war, but I see us approaching this precipice more quickly with each passing day. I sadly believe it’s inevitable at this point. We’ve already passed the point where it could have being stopped.
Nearly 160 years has passed since the last Civil War. Historically speaking, that’s good run for a modern Republic, but we ceased being a “True Republic” many years ago, when the War of Secession started. Federal Power and Federal Bureaucracies gained more and more power with little, if any at all, protest. This government today was not what our Founders intended.
I believe that the time to Lock and Load is upon us, we’d best be ready to defend our Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic.
The source of our real crisis in the West is the façade of Liberal Ideology which is a two faced system of pretend democracy as long as you don’t question anything. Once you question their puppet masters they expose their real agenda which is another version of Sodom & Gomorrah .
I am banned from Breitbart because Bb does not want you to know who your masters are.
“To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.—Voltaire”
Along with the purposely maintained doctrine of actually needless permanent warfare against peoples of other many nations, without even the people under the dictatorial self-imposed governments responsible ever having any knowledge that their own effective hostile military occupation governments are misusing their military and doing this behind their backs, while the additional policy is used of waging permanent warfare even against the peoples of the nations they control, most of this having been surely observed by Orwell as already occurring in the Bolshevik Russia that had actually been funded and arranged by UK, US and German bankers affiliated with the Rothschilds. Much all of this is also ‘foreseen’ in the book 1984 also, which I have just finished re-reading. The mental torture known as ‘Unmasking’ which occurred in Romania under communist control is simply horrific, and that also is surely strongly alluded to in 1984.
I greatly recommend reading ‘Prolonging The Agony’ by Macgregor and Docherty to really see how horrifically inhuman those behind all this abuse of the greater mass of humanity are, the revelations contained are substantiated by masses of research and will stagger you and completely change your understanding of several major events in history that have shaped the world as it is today.
Humanity is deliberately made to overwork and to keep in a more or less uneducated and unaware state through consequent lack of time and lack of energy. Vast amounts of constantly-produced resources that would otherwise vastly improve the standard of living for all are constantly being drained off to be constantly destroyed in never-ending warfare, this being only to preserve the power of the wealthy at the top of what they assume is an oligarchically controlled pyramid of power and influence that needs to be maintained and can only be maintained in this way. Alternatives do exist that are vastly more generous and compassionate.
By constantly creating new wars, new diseases, and new demands for resources to be destroyed in this way, it is ensured that now constantly fearful people are made to work excessively, having little time for self-education whilst their noses are held pressed to the grindstone, and that they have little resources themselves, in a more or less constant state of impoverishment, ignorance and poor health.
The Rubber is about to hit the road and the anti white oligarchs know it. they are desperate because they know for sure that when scarcity comes people group together along ethnic lines. In 2020 the Israeli first anti white mob tried to get the non whites they have imported to replace white people to take over in a communist revolution but white men with guns easily shut them down. Now they are desperate to trade their failing economic power for the ideological power of communism. They are failing and are terrified of the future.
Good.
