The public has been mesmerized by media. If there is one thing I'd like to see happen, it's growing awareness of how media has become corrupt and how it's relayed a corrupt government message regarding three of the major issues of the day: covid, our intentionally porous Southern border, and the risky and needless proxy war against nuclear Russia. There's obviously much more to the picture (such as how we became stuck with Joe Biden/Kamala Harris), and it can be understood simply by questioning everything we're being told while applying logic and seeking out the truth-tellers.

We have the power to solve this issue. Simply by rejecting the monetary system entirely and permanently. Basically, change the incentive to change the behavior that results. This is the world we get when money is the primary incentive. Haven't we figured that out yet??? Reject money, adopt a resource based economy instead. Before the monetary system ends the human species, along with countless others.

The basic principle of power… influence, and control over people as applied to economics. The principal is “when you assume the appearance of power, people will soon give in to you.” The simplest way to explain political world leaders and the media: The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them. - Turkish Proverb A fitting statement in reference to former and 44th U.S.A president Barack Obama (2009-2017). “Anytime you throw your weight behind a political party that controls 2/3 of the government, and that party can’t keep the promises that it made to you during election time... and you’re dumb enough to walk around continuing to identify yourself with that party, you are not only a chump [a foolish or easily deceived person], you’re a traitor to your race!” - Malcolm X (1964) One of the best use of KZbin I’ve seen.

What an exceptional documentary, portraying the harsh reality of information heroes who risk their lives to unveil the truth. It's truly heartbreaking to contemplate the millions of lives lost in that war due to ego, greed, and the pursuit of power. I'll never fathom such depths of evil. This underscores why there's been such a concerted effort to silence and hinder Trump in his quest for world peace. He's united more countries than any previous president, and in my eyes, he's a hero with an unparalleled love for this nation and its people, along with Lincoln and JFK among US presidents. Trump's willingness to relinquish his luxuries for the betterment of others is commendable, and it's perplexing that some fail to recognize this. While he may make inflammatory remarks during moments of frustration and attack, it's important to consider who else among the billionaire class has sacrificed their opulent lifestyles for the greater good-none that come readily to mind.

[@xrxs1020]

Great points, Desiredbalance. I've always said that it's for a reason Trump has been attacked 24/7 for years. The reason wasn't because he was evil, but because he was telling the truth about the war-mongers and psychopaths orchestrating the wars and the news about the wars. The military/industrial war complex wasn't about to allow a 'blowhard' businessman to sully their game. This is why Trump is being threatened with prison as he's accused of the ''crime'' of questioning the 2020 election. The last few years have been a textbook example of media transformed into almost continuous propaganda. Covid day-in and day-out, complete with inflated numbers and, of course, thick doses of fear. Sadly, much of the public have believed the propaganda with which our media have pummeled the public. I'm hoping more are learning they're been gamed and thus can sidestep the media onslaught by means of awareness.

[@franklinthompson7336]

While I full heartedly respect you and your beliefs, one of our other greatest threats to our country is putting politicians up on a pedestal. They will say anything to pull at your heartstrings… that’s partially what this whole doc is about. I don’t support any politicians except on the local level. No president is going to save this country, it’s just the cold hard truth. I envy your amount of hope and love for a ruler, but we the people hold the power. No matter who wins next election things are going to get worse. We only have the illusion of choice. None of us chose either candidate

[@franklinthompson7336]

If we all focus on getting involved at a local level, and bridging the immense division the media has created, we might have a chance at saving this country. Otherwise, they’ve got us divided exactly how they want so we can never make a change without hating our own fellow neighbors

[@averageamerican1639]

⁠@@franklinthompson7336 Well put!! This kind of polite, thoughtful response I wish I saw more of online. Even though you disagreed, you still respectfully shared your thoughts and offered some advice. Please continue to share this same polite, advice. This is how we find common ground, and make positive changes. Thank you, your words have inspired me.

[@Desiredbalance]

It's important to recognize that elections and voting are not illusions. When we keep repeating the idea that they don't matter, we risk discouraging people from exercising their right to vote and appreciating the power we have to choose the right representatives. Politicians benefit when we become disengaged because it allows them more control over the outcomes. To make a difference, we need to become more involved in local politics and elections. Attending local political meetings and discussions helps us understand the individuals who impact us at the state level. They are our voice, and if our votes didn't matter, politicians wouldn't be trying to change voting laws or immigration policies to influence outcomes. Engaging in civil conversations and being open with each other is crucial. I appreciate your approach, and let's work together to make positive changes. One love, my friend

A distinction needs to be made between an authoritarian and warlike government concocting a false pretext for war and young men being fooled into believing the propaganda and risking their lives for what they wrongly believe to be a just cause. I respect anyone who risks their lives for a cause they believe in. The fact they've been deceived, along with much of the public, is a separate issue from the courage to risk one's life. It would be different if the troops k.n.e.w. the war was nonsense but still engaged in it.

[@xrxs1020]

All wars are nonsense except in instances of legitimate self-defense.

[@hailstonesoftruth]

We allowed ourselves to be deceived by people we trusted. That contributed to our silence about these crimes against humanity and that came back to bite us hard via the Covid pandemic. It will never pay to be a sell out and everyone who participates in these crimes by deception or silence are going to eventually feel the pain. That includes those in power.

[@tobythompson199x]

"Came back to bite us hard via the covid pandemic." Please explain

[@hailstonesoftruth]

@@tobythompson199x I believe the Covid pandemic was a global operation of crimes against humanity. The pandemic for America is the evidence of the global atrocities that has been going on abroad for decades as shown in this video. It came back to hurt us “bite us” with the devastation of the pandemic because of our participation through our silence, voting for politicians that we allow to rule unchecked and allowing American tax dollars to pay for those atrocities. I hope this explains. HT

David Rose apologizing shows a very rare character trait, integrity. Admitting to having been duped is now almost unheard of, as people most often rather shoot their own foot. Admitting a mistake, or rather a misjudgement of such a scale, ie, trusting your sources without any investigation just because they are the US government, is no small feat for a man, particularly if you look at how many actually did even after it became clear to the whole world how the USA made up the entire story to begin their operations in the middle east. For this I respect him, and wonder how is doing now that this kind of behavior from the governments of the west are basically routine.

And also moved by the fear of losing his job and life status.

Evil is silencing good...very little good here...on Earth... Humans need to stop infighting long enough to topple our oppressors Mitch McConnell is Emperor Palpatine Some of you will die, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make! - Lord Trump @Justin Y. Trump is evil. He ignored this virus until he couldn't ignore it...the steps taken have been deliberately slow to contain this virus, as the government has made huge financial gains in allowing particularly older, retired people to die...no more pay outs each month...voting, if still valid in this country...is our only peaceful, legal recourse...voting 3rd party is the ONLY WAY to get real humans in power, rather than dynasty families and career politicians. When we realize the 2 parties we are divided over LOVE the division among us...then and only then may America be great again... @Justin Y. Lack of knowledge of the deep state? I just accused our government of mass murder...I understand deep state...fact that you refuse to listen, only attack, says too much about you...clearly you haven't known hardship. Clearly none of this has impacted you negatively...you are part of the problem, offering zero solutions. @Justin Y. Calling me stupid really helps your case...Trump has very limited brain power, as evidenced by his rambling, generally repetitive, toddler talks...although most of us are sorely undereducated, Trump really amazes me every time i listen to his banter. Trump did not close the borders in time, many flights to the USA brought sick folk here. Action wasn't taken until very late February, and by then 15 confirmed cases were more than enough to basically allow what amounts to airborn, quickly lethal AIDS《why this? (Because this virus mutates too fast to create an effective vaccine, which may never get made), upon the world. This is dangerous because common behaviors of common folk, such as shoulder to shoulder events, shopping and sardine packed working conditions, helped this virus along...even as people died in China daily...America went forward 2 full months wothout any concerns...then...rather than force the hands of state officials, and put the population through a 2 month quarantine, we've been seeing states react, rather than prepare...and all at the natural stages this virus thrives on...complacency among enough of us to allow the spread to continue. You refusing to see this logic isn't a blight on my mental capacity, just proves you are as simple as our Lord Trump...and likely among those very few, who like many elites, don't even understand the plight of the masses, whom I speak for, in this contrived crisis...Trump is calm about the virus because he exists outside the bounds of common folk...Trump and other powerful people would never have to take the risk of infection seriously as they are all well protected by expendable servants or can at the least afford to continue living lavishly and distanced from peons such as myself. 9/11 was an inside job and this proves what I've feared since then...that the government can perform mass murder and the people will always just accept it, hire the next sociopath in line, whichever of the 2 evil divisionary parties they aspire to dwell in... Our educational system is archaic. We could be educating everyone from home...there are no valid excuses for our current broken schooling, and no teachers need lose jobs...as the internet is an amazing communication device... Taxes are broken. Your dollar earned gets hit so many times...and we all just accept that blindly. Medicine is broken. My grandmother died because her selfish daughter needed cable tv more than grandma needed diabetes medicine...and millions suffer from the inability to afford insulin, despite that drug initially starting out as a gift to humanity from a generous genius, privatized by evil and greed, priced beyond reality for most. Our 2 party system is designed to keep us bickering...division keeps us docile enough to accept our own government conspiring to murder us, with our acceptance. 3rd party candidates are generally real humans...that care about other humans, even, gasp, total strangers and foreigners... We are all on the same damn spaceship...Earth. I judge character...not race, not whatever religion folks are born into. I am old...I am tired of seeing disaster after disaster get slow attention from government, as poor people die in thousands due to delayed or nonexistent help. It's about time the many take control, with votes, to dethrone the sociopaths that control us, play games with our very lives... When there are only voluntary homeless, when the janitor is paid living wage, when a high school graduate can earn enough in food service, or retail, to support a modest home and essentials, while creating a nest egg...when veterans are given the same care as Congress, Senate and other positions of highest power, rather than left to suffer and die, when the lowest paying jobs are enough to survive on, then and only then, can America boast of being great... As it stands...I feel most of us are born into lies we have no control over...It's well orchestrated, as my points are made clear in every satirical broadcast about the plight of the expendable masses, world wide... Do I want peace, equity and kumbaya? Yeah...I do...are there sociopaths in power oppressing the common folk...yeah...there are...have good Democrats and Republicans existed? Yes...they get blocked by evil at every turn, often resigning due to unbeatable corruption. Do I pity the very people I label simple? You bet I do...I want this planet to be a better place for most...not some...for all...if ever possible... This covid virus isn't done. It mutates too fast to pin it down with a vaccine...and we haven't seen the end of it because we, as a planet, would have to agree on a few ground rules to consider being a functional society. That's my 2 cents...some of it...take it or leave it. Most of us just exist and watch, lazily, rather than get directly involved in change. @soaringvulture We don't seem to take note...we, the expendable masses, are being told to push through life ignoring this virus...it took ONE infection to start a Planet Wide Pandemic...and because we didn't quarantine from January 1st to February, we get to watch innocent and otherwise lives lost, daily...who are "we", in "we're in it together"? Certainly not the elite...they step on us to avoid harm...I'm furious with humanity as a whole...I'm furious we accept all this death and Trump's toddler talks...like a Ted talk without useful insight... Those of us suffering are many...while the privileged watch the show They created...when...when will the common folk unite against tyranny, through the only peaceful means we have...vote out career politicians and dynasty families in favor of fellow human beings, with consciousness and compassion for the lowest among us. We won't stop the cycle of abuse by trading Democrats and Republicans, two sides of the same evil, corrupt coin. Vote 3rd party...vote for real people, with flaws, that understand what struggle is...that have put time behind any of these so called essential, yet minimum wage jobs... This economy is screwed...always has been. The vast majority of work available is menial labor...food service, retail, janitors, grocers...a great many take their wages in government...which is far too big, complex and unsustainable... Until any job can offer a modest secure household, until the only homeless are those who volunteer to live "free"...until the pill giants are mandated to make life saving medicine reasonably priced...we are a selfish, horrid nation, divided by the very people that oppress us, yet too busy fighting amongst ourselves to take any useful action towards a better tomorrow for the MANY, not the FEW

I agree. We were being taught to take out our issues on Whomever we want to which is wrong. I started reteaching Myself. My resolution for peace is to name who caused Me the harm. The Government should do the same thing and stop coming at Us as if we do not hstve the right to name the responsible People in our lives that caused major disruptions and damages. My Baby Girl passed away. It was not my MAN. It was the Doctor and his Nurse at Alta Bates Hospital. The Doctor was on the phone at another location telling the Nurse what to do for Me in a very serious emergency. My Sister was there and did not call my MAN or Anyone while I fought to breathe from an IV and my Baby Girl died full term from nine months of prenatal classes. I am not about to blame other Parents who spend time with their Children. I am not about to blame a new Person in my relationship if they spend time with their Children. My home was disrupted in Oakland, CA. by Renee C. Davidson Court Court that had a Sheriff violate my Hearing Officer's settled order. I do not get the runaround to every Oublic Officials Departments in Alameda County to make it appear that I am blaming them. I am blaming the Public Officials for specifically having Me talk to too many People when there is to be one specific Department to move Me forward. When the Judges did what they did to Me. The Presiding Judge was to report the criminal misconduct to Law Enforcement and the Prosecutors. These were serious crimes. The Commissioner On Judicial Performance does not handle these issues. When I paid my Union dues to be represented. The Union Representative is to Represent Me or I sue the Union and my Employer for violating my contract. The Judge is not suppose to ever make the public think that I am not naming the specific ones and allow troubled People to pretend like I know them. They are not welcomed in my private life or cases. My specific facts in my cases has no connection to how a hater feels. This is what the Government is allowing in Alameda County instead of the specific facts and specific People who violated my rights and owe Me. No One wants to hear that the ones who committed these serious crimes against Me do not owe Me when you Illegally lock the door of a home and put another name on the home knowing Someone has aready started paying toward the home. The habitual liars are not crazy. The liars involved are messy, deceptive, and ignorant. They earned serious consequences. The Government earned consequences for helping these misfits of society feel powerful enough to pretend like we know them in that way. I may know a lot of hi and bye People in a hi and bye way. Even my Man cannot tell Me not to sue and fight for what is mines. I am not complying to nothing that does not reflect the lifestyle that I was living until the ones involved comply. I had a home, car, incomes, and valid lawsuits with merits. No ifs, ands, or butts. I was writing Books, Poems for Soldiers, and waving at the People in my Community.
