by | Dec 4, 2023 | Articles | 172 comments

Ho ho ho! It’s December. It’s cold. It’s about to get snowy.

So why not pull the laptop up to the fire, kick back with some hot cocoa and share a bit of holiday joy with the Corbett Report community?

So what’s on your mind right now?

The latest news from Gaza?

The waves that student activists at MIT are making in the heart of the military-industrial beast?

Reason #7,931,592 to spit on the New York Times and its legacy of carnage in the service of its paymasters?

Or maybe you just want to share some nice homemade Christmas gift ideas or kickass eggnog recipes.

Whatever the case, Corbett Report members are invited to log in and engage in discussion in the comments below.

  1. Bought myself a JC Hoodie. NICE!

  2. If anyone ever had any notions that Jordan Peterson was progressive in any way with his pseudo geo-politics discussions, this one should put the final nail in the coffin to them.

    His wife (Tammy Peterson) who had booked the Ottawa Conference and Event Centre to Trinity Productions pulled the plug on them the last minute and cancelled their booking.

    Christine Anderson and Eva Vlaardingerbroek, both outspoken critics of the Great Reset and the scamdemic were scheduled to speak at the venue.

    • Yeah, he’s shown his true colors lately. Even a few years back, I think he said he took the jab. He seems like a gatekeeper, sort of like Chomsky. He keeps the discourse confined in “acceptable” boundaries. He’s also a psychologist and seems to have provided “father figure” energy to a lot of lonely young people on social media. I think he’s working with The Daily Wire now too and is paid handsomely.

      • Yeah he did confess to taking the jab a couple of years ago and wasn’t too happy about it. He gave the ‘wrong reason’ though. He said he wanted to travel etc. and was left with no other choice. 🙁

        Yes I would agree, he certainly fits into the gatekeeper mold.
        I only discovered him a few years ago but there was always something off-putting about him that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. He’s shown his true colors in many interviews he’s done.

        • I had a similar feeling about him when I first heard about him. I think it might have just been his personality that annoyed me a little or comments he made about women being naturally neurotic. This reminded me of Freud and some of his ideas really don’t ring true for me.

          I mean it might be true that there are greater instances of neurotic women due to hormonal influences but there are certainly a lot of neurotic men out there too. He also made a fuss about men having a higher IQ than women which in general is accurate but I think it’s only about 5 points on average which is not a very substantial difference.

          Actually, I think he struck me as a sexist similar to Freud and it bothered me since I’m a woman. His gatekeeping and jab promoting just confirmed my initial feeling about him.

      • he is a zionist, and counter opposition. and he does mention the and talks about the world economic forum, as you know that this is part of their tactics. just as always nothing new. very boring repetitive zionist tricks.

    • That fella will be able to speak some sense into people who will otherwise be off limits. Hopefully many of them will continue moving on instead of lingering for too long.

    • I think Tammy Peterson only reported what occurred and was not involved in the cancellation.

      • It sounds like you may have more information about this than we do?
        If so, could you please let us know why you are saying this?
        Is it just a feeling or you have specific knowledge?
        Thanks.

        • My read on the article is that The Ottawa Conference and Event Centre cancelled the event with Josh Alexander, Christine Anderson, Eva Vlaardingerbroek and others. The end of the article gives the contact information of two directors at the Centre, so folks can write to them to voice their concerns about the cancellation.

          In the article, on “X” Tammy states her position “Leftists cancel Christian speakers in Ottawa. That seems like intolerance to me.” She is not referring to herself as “leftists” but those that work at the Centre, and she (Tammy) is saying that it is intolerant. It looks like Tammy has taken a snip from what the Centre sent to the organizers when she quotes, “with reference to your booking….this booking is cancelled”, and the confusion is that the source it is not referenced. It might have been part of a thread, I don’t know since I don’t use X.

          Her husband, Jordan, has been very supportive of Josh Alexander. He interviewed him and his brother on their activities. I didn’t watch the interview but my husband said it was pretty good. Here is the link:
          https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/josh-alexander-tells-jordan-peterson-about-beginnings-of-his-pro-family-activism/

          • Thanks yellowie for the clarification. 🙂

            I did indeed misinterpret what was written in the article.
            The reason was because of these lines:

            “On November 28, the Ottawa Conference and Event Centre refused to rent space to Trinity Productions, an organization which brings pro-freedom speakers to Canada.

            “”At the time of your booking, there was no disclosure to OCEC of the nature of the event Trinity Productions intended to hold at our conference centre,” read the notice published on X, formerly known as Twitter, by Tammy Peterson, wife of prominent Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson.

            “Today, it has been brought to our attention that your event features two speakers, Christine Anderson and Eva Vlaardingerbroek commonly associated with hate speech and beliefs that are antithetical and completely unwelcome to OCEC, its management, employees and others who use our Conference and Event Centre,” it continued. 
            “In these circumstances, we are terminating the Function Agreement for Booking: 39278 and shall return your deposit in the amount of $5,844.22,” the notice concluded.””  

            It turns out that Tammy was just quoting a statement made by the OCEC organizers that was published on Twitter (X).

            Although I’m not a fan of Jordan Peterson, I will certainly give him a free pass on this one. 🙂

    • I think that Jordan Peterson got re-programed like the guy in the movie “1984”. I saw an interview he did where he was all pissed off about the University coming down on him and how they were going to require him to take re-programing classes if he wanted to continue to teach. Well, he said that he was going to take their damn classes. And, I thought, does he know what he is getting into?
      If he took the EUA Covid shot so that he could travel, then he has certainly underestimated the level of evil we are dealing with. “MK Ultra” was a CIA Mind Control Operation that likely got Sirhan Sirhan to fire shots at RFK in 1968 without him even being able to recall any part of it. Even though his shots were fired randomly and did not even hit RFK he provided a distraction for the real killer and was used as a Patsy. The LA County Coroner concluded that the fatal shots came from the back at point black range while Sirhan Sirhan was about 7 feet in front. (There had to be some evil bastards in high places to cover up that one)
      Anyway, the point is that Jordan Peterson agreed to be re-programed apparently thinking that he could handle it, and now he seems a lot different, eh!

      • Yeah I ‘m with you all the way on Peterson.
        I’ve seen too many of his interviews where he was too wishy washy for my tastes.
        Trying to be progressive but staying politically correct at the same time!

        There’s no denying he’s well-educated and a talented orator, but that’s not enough to cut it
        for me.

        He did a video with Rex Murphy a year or so ago on YT where they had the opporunity to nail Trudeau to the cross for his mishandling of the scamdemic/trucker crisis etc.
        And he blew it!
        He skirted around here and there and said that basically Trudeau was trying to fill his father’s shoes, that’s all.
        He didn’t get to the root reasons as to why Trudeau was acting as he did.

        If we could figure it out, surely he could have.
        He talks and talks and talks but his tongue always seems to be in a straight jacket. 🙁

        • I didn’t keep up on his Trodo statements. Are you positing that the entire spiel with the university coming after Peterson was just a ruse? Could very well be.

          I am not even aware anymore what were his statements that got him in that situation.

          • Prior to being re-programed, Jordan Peterson was talking about the Events of 9/11/01, and the COVID Scam rather openly and accurately, yet because he developed something like 25 million followers he became a target.
            I happen to have some experience at being a target relative to writing Letters to the Editors of about 50 News Papers concerning the Events of 9/11/01 and the Governments reactions to it. I even managed to get a few words in about the “Patriot Act”.
            Anyway, I was run out of Commy County WA for it.
            Perhaps if I would have agreed to get re-programed I could still be living there.

            • At which point in time would you project that this reeducation of Peterson has taken place?

              • I would have to go back and watch the interviews, but it was this year (2023). In the interview Peterson was talking about losing his teaching position at the University and how he was going to fight it, yet later in the interview he says that he will take their damn classes.

              • I did watch the interview where he was saying that if it comes to the reeducation he’ll gladly go through it and that it would be questionable who is going to be reeducated. He was quite livid.

          • Like you I haven’t been following his university skirmishes too closely.

            Apparently he sued Wilfrid Laurier University five years ago for $1.5 million alleging that comments made about him by three Laurier staff in a private meeting were defamatory. 🙂

            I also learned that he was ordered by an Ontario court to undergo ‘social media training’ or risk losing his licence to practice psychology in the province. Apparently people had filed complaints about his controversial online posts and statements. He refused to undergo the training course at first but has since changed his mind.

            But something else just popped up today that I find to be very intriguing.

            Someone has put together a very slick smear article on Peterson making him sound like a pyramid scheme promoter!
            They have taken the CBC’s website template and inserted an article that had me fooled very briefly.

            When I went hunting for the source, nothing could be found at the CBC site whatsoever.
            A search on the subject turned up a bunch of other site addresses featuring the same bogus article.

            Have a look at these sites and tell me what you think about the article:

            guideline-forest.web.app
            devil-boys2023.blogspot.com
            legend-fire.vercel.app
            thaw-crack.firebaseapp.com

            • The strange thing is that at the bottom of the article is a link to a trading site where you can place trades and make your very own killing. 🙂

              The company associated with the link is ‘Swisscap’ which is based in the UK.

              The CBC ‘News Editor’ Martin Walsh is bogus as is the rest of the article.

              If Peterson wanted to launch another law suit he could go after this company. They could possibly be connected in some way with this scam.

            • Fake sites are.incredibly easy to setup. Now with chatbots probably even easier, you could have a bot churn them out like pancakes.

    • I find Peterson uplifting, and encouraging in the meta, but arguably naive (or perhaps innocently ignorant) of the depths of Cabal depravity. He, like Corbett, should interview Brendon O’Connell. I’ve also asked Corbett to do a deep dive on Whitney Webb. Has anybody seen one on her background, lineage,associations, etc?

      • I agree. I have mixed feelings about Peterson.

        This is the video I mentioned above.
        He touches on all the talking points about Trudeau in this video, when he mishandled the
        trucker convoy episode.

        But when push comes to shove and Peterson reached the point where he could have stuck a dagger into his heart and pointed out the root reasons why Trudeau acted as he did (28:38) he backed away. Was it his naivity, his ignorance or perhaps his being controlled opposition?

        I often wonder if the guy just likes to hear himself talk.

      On Tuesday November 7, 2023 the Dallas Quality of Life, Arts and Culture Committee had before them a world famous toxicologist and scientific researcher, Professor Bruce Lanphear. The Committee muffed it. They botched an incredible opportunity.
      The Chair, Adam Bazaldua demanded that the panelists limit their time so that the Committee could ask questions.
      Thus, Professor Lanphear spoke succinctly for only 6 minutes. But, glaringly, the Professor was never asked a question by the Chair.
      Listen to Bruce Lanphear (6 minutes) starting at the 2 minute mark:

      Bruce Lanphear has conducted research on the sources of lead exposure and impacts of lead poisoning for over 25 years. He led studies used by federal agencies to set standards for lead in air, water, and house dust.
      BEHAVIOR
      Lead can effect intelligence and behaviors, including aggressive, criminal behaviors. It is what psychologists call “executive functions”: emotional regulation, impulse control, attention, verbal reasoning, and mental flexibility.

      • We use Fluorosilic Acid to fluoridate like 63% of the countrys water supply, which is a byproduct of the phosphate fertilizer industry.

        Those trace amounts of Polonium 210 on the daily will get you man…

      • Thank you for posting.

        Personal note: I visited my dentist last week for the routine cleaning and got a lecture about how “we” supply fluoride as a nutrient to infants so their secondary teeth and bones develop to be strong, and so their teeth are resistant to cavities. So discouraging…

        • Yup, same thing happened to me when I went to the dentist for a cleaning two weeks ago and found out I had three cavities. My first EVER! I got the same lecture about how putting fluoride in water has greatly reduced the incidence of cavities in kids. The dental hygienist was giddy when she was talking about it and the fact that one of the greatest “inventions” of modern dentistry is the new fluoride varnish they “paint” your teeth with. 🙁 I had fluoride treatments as a kid…explains a lot!

    • I hear that PFAS is more toxic than Mercury and it is turning up everywhere.

      • PFAS – Forever Chemicals – Example of SHAPING OUR COMMUNITIES

        Months ago, I had been pitching the following Dallas PFAS story all over Texas at different news outlets, complete with documents and links.
        Finally, Friday September 1, 2023 – NBC- DFW 5 TV – Ken Kalthoff ran the story with links and embedded documents.
        PFAS Regulation in water supplies to affect Dallas and Fort Worth
        https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/pfas-regulation-in-water-supplies-to-affect-dallas-and-fort-worth/3328946/
        EXCERPT
        A spokesperson for the City of Dallas said that Dallas Water Utilities will provide a briefing for a city council committee in October. The City of Dallas declines additional comment until after that meeting.

        Yesterday Dec 6 at a packed Dallas City Hall, activist Regina Imburgia walked over to the reporter Ken Kalthoff and pitched a story.
        10 years ago, Ken had interviewed Regina for a news story on fluoride.

        The Dallas Water Utilities still has not made a public comment on the PFAS, despite Oct 16, Nov 7, Dec 5 appearances before a Dallas Committee.

        At the first of 2023, I even called Region 6 EPA about the new EPA rules for water utilities to monitor PFAS.

        Budz-Jørgensen and Grandjean believe that the health-based limit should rather be 0.2 nanograms per liter, or 0.2 ppt (part per trillion)
        The EPA’s proposed legal limit is 4 ppt for PFOA and PFOS
        Dallas Water Utilities had PFOA and PFOS measurements which were above the proposed legal limit.

        ~~WWW sdu.dk/en/nyheder/forskere-med-kritik-af-eu-graensevaerdier-for-pfas
        EXCERPTS
        That means that, for the two most important PFASs (PFOS and PFOA), the limit is about ten time too high, says Philippe Grandjean. We have repeatedly seen that PFAS was more toxic than we feared.

        Philippe Grandjean will testify in the January/February Fluoride trial.
        He is world famous and often featured on European TV.

        Oct 10, 2023 – University Website
        Danish data support fluoride being toxic to brain development
        Even an apparently small amount of fluoride transferred from the mother during her pregnancy to the fetus can damage the fetal brain development.

        • Below is what the PFAS acronym stands for;

          Perfluoroalkyl and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a family of toxic chemicals that accumulate in the environment and living organisms, earning them the nickname “forever chemicals.”

          When I go to the local State Park I see a form of it as a white foam on the water. It has been reported as a Fire Retardant and there are signs that say “Do not eat the Fish” and “Shower after being in contact with the water”. It has made it’s way into the Aquifer and is turning up in Well Water. I think this stuff makes the Flint (Lead in the water) Crisis look like small potatoes.

          This stuff is everywhere.

  4. Keto gingerbread recipes:

    Almond flour – grind almonds in electrical grinder. (20 bucks).

    Coconut flour.

    Alternative sweeter like erythritol.

    Nutmeg nut. Max two, otherwise, one could die.

    Cinnamon (Ceylon is best).

    Ginger powder.

    Ground cloves.

    Fine sea salt.

    Baking soda.

    Xantan gum.

    Grassfed butter or ghee (clearified butter, has a higher smoking point).

    Almond milk (only needed to thin the batter as needed, can maybe use water).

    Pepper

    How to make:

    Mix dry ingredients. Then mix butter and sweetener.

    Bake at 325 degrees F or 163 C

    • Thank you for the keto recipe! I’d really like to try eating this way in the New Year. I think there are a lot of health benefits from minimizing carbohydrates in the diet especially as people get older.

      So many diseases are related to excessive carbohydrate consumption and junk food. I have always loved sweets and they have been the most difficult thing to moderate.

  5. I completed what turned out to be a 4 part series on the Australian army lawyer/whistleblower David McBride last week.

    In the end its a 2.5 D thing featuring the subjugation of the Australian judiciary at the hands of the 5-EYES network led by the US. The only particularly interesting aspect which occurred to me after the podcast for the last episode was that the alliance network makes it even harder for a vassal to enact whistleblower protection laws, which no government would pass if they could avoid it anyway.

    So, nothing terribly revelatory, all up.

          Dr.Shiva Ayyadurai addresses the NZ COVID data .
          Ultimately it’s the dialectic. NZ government has to release all the data to make sense of the data and claims made by the whistleblower. That has a low chance of happening. Truth exposed.
          In a very Corbettarian way he makes the hidden agenda appear. Truth, of the matter, will expose the magic the PTSB propaganda tries to put into place. This is a good example of what Homie, HomeRemedySupply has told us about the MESSAGE.
          Compare my two posts on NZ whistleblower with Dr.Shiva’s analysis. Corbettarian!

    • Wait till you read about Dan Duggan https://freedanduggan.org/

      For those who don’t live here, the Australian gov has always been the U.S’s bottom boy. 🙂

      • The Government of Australia is a Corporation which is a subsidiary of the Corporation that runs the United States.
        If you allow Private Bankers to take control of the Money Supply, they, and the Corporations that grow up around them, though a system of inflation and deflation will eventually own everything, and you will have no freedom.

        • Yes, but you use the word ‘allow’ like we have a choice in the matter.

          • Indeed, the choice was made before I was born, however if I continue to do my part, the Bankers will lose their power over the Money Supply and Governments will no longer be ruled over by them.
            Federal Reserve Notes are being rejected world wide and the Bankers CBDC scam is not ready. 2024 may be the year the SHTF!

            • TruthSeeker,
              I had lost my driver’s license last week and went to the ‘motor vehicle agency’ which in my state is a private contractor in Oklahoma,USA. I want to travel by air soon and will need some ID to do so.
              The contractor told me I could get a replacement, a renewal or a Real ID.
              Ok, I asked what the costs,any differences between the three. Length of time before it expires. She said renewal won’t expire for six years,2029 the replacement within less than one ,in September 2024
              After the agent finished her answering my questions she mentioned as an aside, that in May of 2025 No travel by air intra-USA would be allowed for those without a passport or Real ID.
              So two of my options would be void after May 2025.
              Something is in the works.
              A curious thing happened at the end of taking my picture. She hands me a little box on a wire, saying please put your left thumb on the top of the box. Hum? She says it’s not working try your right thumb it’s been acting up , that’s when the red flag went up! What are my options here I said Is this compulsory by statute . She admitted saying No. Give me my fingerprint back and I don’t appreciate your deception. What do I owe you. Nothing, You will receive your operator licence in the mail within three weeks, here is a paper of your temporary operators license. My plane ticket is in 25 days. What if it doesn’t arrive in time? Temporary expires in 30 days, I will be in another state when it expires and will have only a valid birth certificate? This sucks!
              Bring your birth certificate and this paper to the airport.
              This is totally CRAZY. Stop this ride I want off!!!
              Papers PLEASE!
              The control grid is being put into place and rubs me in all the wrong directions.

    The material in the article linked above may not be news to many of you, but if you are not familiar with the story of Brandy Vaughan, you should be, and that is among the topics covered in the article.

    I hope to hear from some of you in the comments section and look forward to learning from any intel you can add to what I have put together.

    • @Gavinm

      Thanks, Gavin. I read part of your article, bookmarked it so I can finish reading it, and watched Brandy’s 36-minute speech.

      Someone has kept Brandy’s learntherisk.org website alive, though its format is very different from when she ran it.

      Brandy’s courage in speaking out was not in vain; she opened a lot of eyes. Both she and her important message to the world will never be forgotten.

      • @CQ

        Thanks for taking the time to check out my article.

        I agree wholeheartedly about her courage and the lasting impact of her admirable choices.

        I appreciate the comment.

  7. WINTER 2023-2024 WEATHER WARFARE

    I believe strongly that the winter 2023-2024 will see a surge of extreme climate events worldwide. it will be blamed on climate change, aka people’s lifestyle.
    However, this is just an elaborate story to disguise a weather warfare on the world.
    People have a hard time believing that the weather can be manipulated. And it’s difficult to find trusted sources that talk about it. Most of those articles are scrubbed from the internet.
    Here is a story published by the Wall
    Street Journal in 1997, reporting that the Malaysian government would use a Russian technology to create MAN-MADE CYCLONES in order to fight pollution.
    URL: https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB879358749440544000 (scrubbed)
    Archive: https://archive.is/ZYFTs

    Lately, scientists made a presentation showing that super-typhoons would hit Taiwan in WINTER.
    https://focustaiwan.tw/sci-tech/202311070027

    Nature doesn’t create typhoons on cold water.
    Men, bad men could.
    Keep the idea in mind.

    • The skies were heavily and dramatically chemtrailed in Dallas Texas this morning.
      Literally out of the blue; No significant activity for months, until today. Of course, the weather has been clear and steady for over a week now…

      The Wunderground Weather site is full of Climate Change BS, (as usual).
      Today’s buzzword was ‘atmospheric rivers’.
      Are they vaccinating the skies, or are they chemtrailing our bloodstreams?

      • Hankey,
        Well said.
        BLOODSTREAMS!

      • Using the Coronavirus pandemic as a reference, I would say that hurricanes (wind, rain) and heat waves will be the virus in the forthcoming weather warfare (2024). Chemtrails and other sun blocking methods will be the vaccine (2030).

        • Yeah, we are being attacked by the liars and warmongers. It is an assault from various weapons. Just as there were always stones, spears, arrows, swords, etc., then a choice of tanks, bombs, pistols, machine guns, etc.
          Now they (we?) are having fun with the new arsenal of tactics from the tiniest viruses and radiations to the entire atmosphere and even outer space. I don’t know what to say, other than, save your soul and your mind to the best degree possible. That is the challenge in this time of great deceit. Where do we, individually, draw the line on self-censorship? When is effective, righteous opposition more than a foolish waste of your safety and freedom? Rhetorical questions, inexorably becoming more and more palpable every day.

      • Atmospheric rivers, yeah, that’s a dandy; quite the mouthful for all the dimwitted newzspeaking smarty pantses out there … right up there with those “po-lur vor-tex-es” from a dozen years or so back. Yeah, those po-lar-vor-tex-es when people could not keep their homes warm and if they dared go outside with any of their extremities exposed would soon find those extremities severely frost bitten – literally flash frozen. The hard packed snow and what I refer to as ‘teflon ice’ were deadly. Drivers sliding out of control into ditches or slamming into cars at intersections were an everyday spectacle, where it became my abject suspicion that these sorts of incidents were the primary, perverse reasons for the surveillance cameras at every corner. (I say perverse because I have little to no doubt that those with access to the video footage captured are hedging on the numbers of accidents, or “akkies” in the hedge betting realms of this strange new world.) In my sparsely populated area of the country, I counted four on foot who took terrible tumbles on the walkways. One was my elderly neighbor who suffered bruises to his hip and elbow. One was my daughter’s friend, who, knocked unconscious was lucky to have been spotted by a passerby and taken to a nearby ER. But the two others laid on the ground and froze to death, where it’s likely it didn’t take more than 15-minutes for the exposure to set in. Even back then, it was obvious to me that this was not natural but instead manufactured chemical cold; liquid helium or argon gasses (imported from Iran, no less), perhaps, dumped across the land … Ummm yuh, ‘nuclear winter’ sort of play-stuff.

        • All I know for sure is that I don’t know what in the hell they are doing with the chemtrails. Yesterday the sky here was totally obliterated with the most obvious patterns of lines, eventually mushing out. Today, clear as a bell!?!
          I am going to say your argon and helium theories need work…

  8. Aaron Russo stated in his documentary America: Freedom to Fascism, that the solution to virtually all the nations problems sources to the monetary system. Solve that and everything else will fall into place.

    Michele Klann gives the most cogent explanation how we got suckered and what we can do about it – https://rumble.com/v3bgb82-operation-restore-the-republics.html – Our Great Awakening – Operation Restore the Republics!

    Michele informs us our Republic was stolen in 1871. In 2021, Michele co-founded Bonds for the Win using FOIA requests for “Oaths of Office, Bonds, and Liability Policies for every “elected” official throughout the US and abroad.” The project successfully challenged the mandate for masks liberating 50 million American children from breathing their own CO2. It’s now their choice.

    Michele quickly discovered the best defense is a good offense. She learned that LAW is an acronym for Land (Law of the land (Common Law)) – Air (Trust Law (private sector) Law of Commerce)) – Water (Maritime, Corporate, Admiralty Law; laws of corporations). Each individual is designated a corporate entity from birth using capital letters on the birth certificate. Many of us already know this. What Michele explains next is how each state was originally set up as Trust within a sovereign Republic, the people beneficiaries of that Trust. The rules of the Trust are a Trust Indenture (Constitution).

    In 1871, the banking establishment created/financed the civil war. Everyone in the senate and all officers in the Trust, vacated their offices and returned as individual corporations under a corporate structure created and governed by the banking elite. By the end of the video she shows what is being done to get us out from under Das Boot. And, wouldn’t you know it; we’re all a part of the solution.

    • I miss Arron Russo and Bill Cooper.

  9. Just watched your Kissinger video…always knew he wasn’t a good man…believe it or not…info gained through the MSM, way back when.
    Having watched this and gained even more info of the dirt this man was involved in, makes me very sad that so many who aim for control and power are willing to act so abysmally low. What an ugly vibration of life…I suppose it is an expression of how sick we have allowed our culture to become. Time for change.

    • @jo-ann

      I appreciate your bringing the Totality of Evidence documentaries page to our attention.

      Also, I noticed that website’s “The Bigger Evidence” page. It has several sections in it, and The Corbett Report is linked to in both the “Global Control” and “Seekers [of] the Truth — Connecting the Dots” sections.

  11. Incase you guys missed it, I currently have a Holiday Sale for digital and physical copies of my book!

    https://gavinmounsey.substack.com/p/announcing-a-holiday-sale-for-digital?

    The post linked above provides the details of a limited time offer I have going for my recently published book.

    Thank you to all you Corbetteers (and Media Monarchy members) who have already purchased a copy of my book! 🙂 I feel grateful to be part of both communities which are filled with so many intelligent, interesting, determined and courageous individuals.

    Every little bit counts (even if one lives in an apartment with no soil to grow in). Each step we take towards decentralizing our access to what we need to survive, be healthy and live a fulfilling life, breaks through another set of the shackles the powers that should not be intend to use to enslave you and me.

    (continued..)

    • I think the book makes a great Christmas gift (either given to oneself and/or to friends and family) as it empowers the reader to feel confident via developing hands on skills that have intrinsic value in any situation.

      Please do not take my word for it though, check out the link in the comment above to read some recent reviews from people who have purchased a copy of my book to hear what people are saying.

      Sheila from Tennessee recently wrote me to say :

      Here is to starting off the new year in the confidence that we can thrive and resist the attempts of the plutocracy to control our food supply in a joyful way via decentralizing our access to food, medicine and heirloom seeds. Vive La Résistance!

  12. I posted this earlier, but it probably belongs here – I might be throwing a clod of dirt in the punch bowl, but here it goes; has anyone read “The Hidden King(s)” PDF by Miles Mathis, available online? It is QUITE a theory, but he backs it up, page after page. It doesn’t really change anything for those of us who believe that there is a deep state pulling the strings of power. It does, however, change some of the early, hidden players!

    • After reading Miles for a few years I have come to the conclusion that I am a Homosexual Jew well connected to the Peerage and that the entire event of my life was Faked…

      • I know what you mean! I have a famous last name but my parents assure me that we are not related to those wealthy and powerful Blankblanks. I don’t know, maybe some day I will get tapped to be the billionaire public face puppet of them. I’m still waiting. But seriously, I think he is right about a lot of it. These people do care a lot about bloodlines. His analysis of YouTube videos does raise the possibility that a lot of it is faked to cause outrage. Even if he is only right half the time, it is still significant.

        • I am just having some fun of course. I do think he’s shockingly close a lot of the time. And he has some great guest writers (The Iran Rulers one). Not sure about Pi equaling 4 though lol. I’ve heard the zapruder film is a complete fake with squib brain and all. I can’t help being a fan of the wilder theories on all of this like King Kill 33, and subliminalsynchrosphere.com

  13. I think you should do a show with people who understand how our debt based financial system is failing and how they need wars to keep the system liquid.
    For instance discuss how Saudi Arabia joining the Brics january 1st will affect the Petrodollar. How can you have the petrodollar without Saudi Arabia? What will happen to inflation when this happens?
    Financial experts who I recommend are John Titus/Catherine Austin Fitts (Solari Reports),
    Gregory Mannarino (Youtube), Ed Dowd, Martin Armstrong (Armstrong Economics), etc.

    By understanding our failing financial system can help to predict the future. For instance they needed WW2 to create the UN, NATO, create Israel, and Bretton Woods. Also pull US out of the great depression,
    Also Gregory Mannarino keeps talking about how to keep the financial system liquid (getting cash into the system), they needed wars. Otherwise the system could freeze.

    How they need a big war (WW3) to take the blame for our failing financial system and to do their great reset.

    • I have listen to a number of financial advisers talk about the state of the finical system in 2019 prior to the COVID breakout who said that it was looking like 2008 all over again. If they didn’t find a way to inject Trillions into the Economy there could well have been riots in the streets. Luckily the COVID scam came along, eh!

      On the other hand, perhaps these Bankers would have gotten what they deserved when their Money was worth nothing and they had no real skills, but they weren’t going to let that happen.

      • Well, if we were ripe for a great unraveling in 2019, just imagine how tightly we are spun coming into 2024 as they have added so many zeros to digital bank accounts that the ensuing stack overflow will make Y2K look like a pony come home to a big load of horseshit. Since when are ponies even responsible for horseshit, anyway?!

  14. One year after pestering the RCMP, I finally got my PAL. My husband bought me a 20 gauge and I bought the rounds. I bagged my first partridge (ruffed grouse) last week, although technically it hit the kitchen window while my shotgun was still in the case. If I knew it was this easy, I would have put up the Christmas tree in the window a lot earlier.

    I’ve been up North for almost 2 years off grid. It has been tough, but we have made good like-minded friends.

    Public Announcement for Canadians:
    I had a surgical misadventure that left me hobbling around with a cane and I am now taller than I used to be (only on the right side). I am shocked by how many people including physicians, don’t know about the Federal Disability Tax Credit in Canada. I carry around forms in my bag and hand them to anyone I see hobbling around. There are three criteria for the “walking” disability that can be met by most hobbling folks: had the problem for more than one year, occurs 90% of the time, and it takes about 3 times as long to walk around. Your MD has to complete page 7 and then sign the form (the other conditions on the form do NOT need to be completed) and you can go back and claim to the year the condition began, up to 10 years previous. Please let anyone know about this who has a problem walking around.
    Here is the link to the paper form:

    • 🙂
      I enjoyed reading your comment. I grinned.
      Bagging a partridge and the Christmas season certainly go together.

      You stand tall and firm in my book.

    • Thanks for mentioning this tax credit thing. While I am on the other end of the world, maybe I can dig up something for my mother, who has quite a lot of problems moving around.

    The Norwegian-developed health platform receives financial support to adapt to the climate crisis

    UiO-developed DHIS2 receives NOK 200 million from a British research foundation. The funds will help to strengthen digital health systems in developing countries.

    The not-for-profit Wellcome Trust is giving £14.5m to DHIS2. DHIS2 was developed at the HIPS center at UiO, and is often referred to as the world’s largest information system for health. The goal is to make the digital health systems better equipped to face the climate crisis. The money will help bring climate data into the platform and combine it with health data.

    “The aim is to better understand and improve the effects of climate change on human health,” writes the Wellcome Trust in a press release.

    – The support is an important contribution to our work in supporting authorities in the global south with digital tools and expertise to be able to prepare, plan and implement measures against climate impacts in public health, says Professor Kristin Braa, who heads the HISP centre.

    DHIS2 is an open source platform. The platform collects and analyzes national and local health data and is run by a team at the University of Oslo. The system is used in more than 100 countries around the world and collects data used by ministries of health, local authorities and healthcare professionals for better planning and management.

    Then they came to track those not obeying the lockdown orders and I did not speak out—because I obeyed them.

    Then they came to track your baggage on your flights and I did not speak out—because I saw that as a convenience.
     
    Then they came to track those whose carbon credit scores were too low, and I did not speak out—because my score seemed high enough.
     
    Then they came to arrest me for not obeying the latest track and trace orders—and none of my family nor friends could speak for me as they had all been arrested and quarantined.

  19. How gematria shapes world events

    Elites are not shy about **what** their plans are: wars, pandemics, cyberattacks, a New World Order… everything is in the open.
    However, they are quite privy about **when** those events will occur.
    Gematria is the a numerological system that encodes their plans into dates or periods of time. This article explains the bases of gematria, the English ciphers and gives 8 examples of past world events.
    Post: https://proxy.zeronet.dev/1GEW2M5UinZxEM6tuE5rikTstpwRjpj5wP/?Post:54:How+gematria+shapes+world+events)

  20. December 7th, 1941, “A Day that will live in infamy”

    The above is a quote from F.D.R. on that date which was probability written well in advance of the “Unprovoked” attack on Peal Harbor.

    “Unprovoked”, my ass, eh!

    Anyway, I just watched this 18 min video

    https://youtu.be/-dOrp1_mXa4

    about the provoking of both Germany and Japan trying to get one or the other to react so that F.D.R. could sell his War to the American People and Congress.

    Yep, that was 82 years ago, however when I see the provoking of Russia in Ukraine and that being done in a number of Arab Counties coupled with what the Zionist led Israel is doing in Gaza, I see many similarities.

    The Biden Administration is, or has, started a World War for many of the same reasons F.D.R. deliberately got the United States into WW II, and perhaps he hopes that Russia will not use it’s 6000 Nuclear Warheads, but then again, what better way to eliminate 95% of the people on this planet.
    Could a one world Government eliminate this Nuclear threat?
    How did it get this crazy?
    As if having enough Nuclear Bombs to destroy all life on the planet ten times over were not crazy enough, now Corporate and Communist Governments (it is hard to tell which is worse) have Stage 4 Bio labs creating pathogens that can destroy all human life.
    So much for Mankind getting smarter, eh!

    • You might take an interest in studying gematria in order to extract hidden meaning from world events. I must admit that I cannot prove that the attack on Pearl Harbor was deliberate, I still consider it as a trigger event that consequently brought a mutual war declaration, on the same day, on December 8th. As stated in my comment above yours, the intention “United States Japan war”has a value of 128 in the reverse reduction cipher, equivalent to 12/8.
      As you mentioned Russia and Ukraine war, the intention “Russia Ukraine war” has a value of 224 in the reverse cipher, equivalent to 2/24 or February 24th.
      The September 11 attacks are compared to the attack on Pearl Harbor since it’s the second time the United States suffer an attack by plane. From a number perspective, there’s more to it. For instance, three buildings were destroyed during the attack: 1,2,7 as in 127 or 12/7 or December 7th, the day of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
      The time is important too: the time of the attacks are mirrored.
      Pearl Harbor attack: 7:48
      September 11 attacks: 8:47 (8:46:40)
      74, and 47 are signatures of the Godlike crazy people responsible for those events.
      To read the Matrix, you need to see the code. And the code is in numbers.

      • The September 11 attacks are compared to the attack on Pearl Harbor since it’s the second time the United States suffer an attack by plane.”

        You are probably one of a handful of ‘conspiracy theorists’ in the world who compares 9/11 to Pearl Harbor this way.
        99.999999999% of conspiracy theorists compare the two events because they were both ‘set-ups’ by the U.S. government: 9/11 a false flag event and Pearl Harbor a LIHOP event.

        As for the numerology, if one tries hard enough one can find almost a limitless number of coincidences with dates and times.
        Do you think they timed the first 9/11 plane strike precisely to the minute/second so that conspiracy theorists could say 20+ years later, “You see, to read the Matrix, you need to see the code. And the code is in numbers.” ?

        • Thanks for disagreeing with me!^^
          I’ll answer the second part about numerology. I’ll show you what I do. I’ll demonstrate when the next pandemic happens.
          You’ll need gematrinator calculator and a date calculator.
          I published sth about it, for the time on 1/31/23

          In gematria, 23/10=231 (a zero doesn’t represent any letters)
          “Catastrophic contagion” has also a value of 231 in the ordinal cipher, which make a connection between the name and the date of the tabletop.
          Adding 666 days takes us to 8/18/23 or 8/19/23 depending if we include or exclude the final day.
          8/18 is the correct date because it’s the 231st day of the year.
          The bad news is that you won’t have to wait that long to see if I’m right or wrong.
          The next crisis is around the corner. 12/21/23
          666 days after the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

            You’re on! Let’s do it!
            I’m willing to place good money on it.

            But before we do, you need to be a little more concrete on what you define as a
            “crisis”.
            You could claim you woke up on the wrong side of the bed on 12/21/23 and that constitutes a “crisis”.
            It seems like you are talking about the next pandemic, but you’ll have to state that clearly.

            I have good news and bad news for you clv.

            First the good news:
            Luckily the world averted your numerology-inspired catastrophic and catalyzing “New World Next Dec 21, 2023” ™ cyberattack crisis that you predicted would happen that day.

            Now the bad news:
            Mr. Corbett has zero tolerance for those who cry wolf needlessly.
            You are now permanently on the CR ignore list. 🙁

    • I have considered that possibility, however, the types of people running the world don’t want to kill themselves in the process. At least I think many of them don’t have a death with or to poison a large part of the planet which a wide scale nuclear war would do. On the other hand tactical nukes to force submission and compliance isn’t out of the question, IMO.

      From a purely materialistic view, basic survival instinct is paramount and hard wired. People seek pleasure and want to avoid pain and suffering. Anything that could come back to them (a nuclear holocaust would) would likely be avoided. Who would want to live out their lives in a bunker? Even a nice bunker would not be desirable IMO. Maybe some of these elitists wouldn’t mind, but I highly doubt that sentiment is shared across the board.

      If I’m wrong there is nothing I can do to prevent a nuclear holocaust anyway. The most that can be done is protest against war. I also cannot control a large asteroid strike from hitting the planet or a large solar flare that could cause wide spread damage to infrastructure. Some things are outside of our control.

      • Thanks for taking the time to answer.^^
        The wwiii will happen and will be nuclear. Russia attacking Estonia will trigger it, 6080 days after the attack of 2007.(6080=68)
        Of course, the intention “Russia Estonia war” has a value of 68 in the reduction cipher.
        The world of tomorrow, I believe will look like the c40 cities, spared by war, climate change, the falling sky, and pandemics. It’s just the plan.
        Nuclear heads will target specific locations (Russia..). The asteroid is just in the news. The reality is a space warfare also on specific locations. (Think Maui)
        I don’t think that they’re afraid of a nuclear winter. If I’m right, Coronavirus was a reset for people (nano-humans), the polycrisis will be the reset for societies. The next one, will be a reset for the planet. I really believe they want to destroy all life on Earth and redo it as they see fit with synthetic biology or else.
        The part about things being out of our control resonates with me but my mind cannot accept it.
        That’s why I’m still writing.
        I’m trying to write counter stories like “Why climate change?”. Well to relocate people for their own safety to designated areas. Why?
        So that those cities can be targeted by asteroids (space warfare). Like you said: it’s out of our hands. What can we do?
        Have a last meal with our friends like in American movies on that topic?
        It’s just not true. It’s a story. There will be safe places called “climate oases”. However, those stories work against the survival instinct. So people might get along with it.
        And if you survive and don’t like the world you see, well, guess what, there’s a state sponsored suicide program. (Soylent green)
        How convenient. People “go” by themselves.
        This is, in a nutshell, the polycrisis agenda.
        There’s still 13 days before it starts. I’m still writing but bracing for impact.

        • Thank you for the interesting reply. I suppose 13 days isn’t that far, so we’ll see. I don’t think I’m wrong about it though, that there will be no widespread nuclear war. But I can be wrong.

          A global catastrophic event like the last ice age could also happen. Asteroids strike earth regularly but not big enough to cause extinction. But something happened 13K years ago that destroyed civilization. There’s physical evidence.

          I don’t think these events are predictable though, not yet. People have been predicting the “end times” for a very long time. Sort of like climate change, etc. “We’re all gonna die!” is the narrative and it’s been wrong so many times that I don’t believe it anymore. So, I’m not too worried about that in particular.

          A global cataclysm though could happen and that is completely unpredictable and outside of human hands. Similarly, every day I drive could be my last (in this life). But I know life is a risk.

          If we change the narrative that can change things. Protest helps with that. Show the public what war looks like, photos of children who have been killed and other humans sacrificed for the war machine and enriching parasitic people.

  21. POLYCRISIS
    The Corbett Report has only two entries for the term “polycrisis”
    https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=polycrisis+site%3Acorbettreport.com%2F&ia=web
    And one is mine.
    In my opinion, this should be on everyone’s radar.
    It has been on mine since the beginning of the year. Here is a summary of the crisis I found:
    1. A cyberattack (2023/12/21)
    2. A weather warfare (2024)
    3. A 911 for Taiwan (2024/07/15)
    4. An asteroid collision (2024/07/22)
    5. The next pandemic (Outer space pandemic) (2024/08/18)

    The following post gives analyses for the crisis I had the time to write about.
    https://proxy.zeronet.dev/1GEW2M5UinZxEM6tuE5rikTstpwRjpj5wP/?Post:55

  22. Every year as the daylight wanes and the sun rises and sets further into the southern portion of the horizon in the northern hemisphere, I’m reminded of how the ancient Babylonian festival of the winter solstice was celebrated. As the heathen were dismayed with the hours of sunlight waning and as the hours of darkness waxed greater, they had that unique custom of cutting down young conifer trees and carrying them back to their houses. They would fasten them with hammers and nails to cause them to stand as upright as a palm tree so that it wouldn’t fall over or tilt. Then they would adorn the tree with silver and gold.
    While they anxiously waited to see if their god, Tammuz, would bring back the daylight hours and on the 3rd eve they would celebrate by feasting and giving gifts to each other to celebrate the return of the daylight that they attributed to that god which was purported to be born of Semeramis , through the immaculate conception of the deceased Nomrod. How the Roman Catholic institution was successful in convincing so many fools to adopt this celebration, by falsely applying the “Jesus” to Tammuz, really is a very interesting thing.

    One of the only quotes of Charles Spurgeon I prefer is what he said in the late 1800s in the heat of the battle to fight the mingling of paganism with the faith of the Lord Jesus Christ, is ““We venture to assert, that if there be any day in the year, of which we may be pretty sure that it was not the day on which the Savior was born, it is the 25th of December. Regarding not the day, let us, nevertheless, give thanks to God for the gift of His dear Son.”

    Jeremiah 10 King James Version for reference

    • Stone Hedge is reported to be about 5000 years old, and there are version of it all over the world. Perhaps the most recent version was built in the State of Washington near Maryhill on the north side of the Columbia River. It is 50% the size of Stone Hedge and was built to be a replica of what Stone Hedge was when it was built.

      Although I was there in the Summer, I could see I was standing in a very large Sun Dial where on the shortest day of the year the Sun would shine on this Alter. That would only happen once a year and would thus signify the passing of a year. On the night of the shortest day of the year the Constellations of the Stars can be observed and the Constellations move across the Sky in reverse order to what we see during a Calendar year. Each passing of a constellation on the night of the shortest day represents an Age in time, which is about 2147 years. Thus, the Christ was to come into the world in the “New Age” of Pisces which is the Sign of the Fish. That is why you see the Fish connected with Christianity.
      The next Age will be Aquarius and we are moving into that Age now. What will the “New Age” bring?

      Below is a quote form Wikipedia;

      There are twelve astrological ages corresponding to the twelve zodiacal signs in western astrology. Advocates believe that when one cycle of the twelve astrological ages, called a Great Year, is completed, another cycle of twelve ages begins.[1] The length of one cycle of twelve ages is 25,772 years.[2]

      The point I want to make is that humans had this 25,772 year Clock/Challenger laid out 5000 years ago and it was used to predict the coming of a Savior/King in the Age of Pisces, thus not knowing the exact date of the birth of Jesus Christs, it doesn’t seem Anti-Christian to Celibate the birth of Christ at the changing of the year.
      What seems more strange to me is that the New Year is Celebrated 10 days late. Perhaps it took some people (those who did not have access to one of these Sun Dials) 10 days to verify, that indeed, the days were getting longer, and perhaps the sacrifice on the Alter was good for something. (There have always been control freaks that would use knowledge for their own gain and I do believe that the Pagans did that)

  23. Highly recommend this video re The Great Taking

    https://live.childrenshealthdefense.org/chd-tv/events/the-great-taking-film-premiere/great-taking-film-premiere-event/

    “The shattering documentary produced by David Rogers Webb, based on his book, alerts us all to the privately controlled Central Banks’ preparations for the inevitable financial collapse.

    “Former Hedge Fund Manager and author, David Rogers Webb, announces “The Great Taking,” premiering exclusively on CHD.TV on Saturday, December 9th at 8 p.m. ET. The not-for-profit documentary exposes the scheme by Central Bankers to subjugate humanity by taking all securities, bank deposits and property financed with debt. Running time is 71 minutes. The film is produced by Webb and Executive Produced by Vera Sharav, Holocaust Survivor and director of the 5-part docuseries Never Again Is Now Global. Webb takes us on a 50-year journey of how the Central Banking systems have secretly put collateral confiscation schemes in place, making everyone from all walks of life vulnerable when the inevitable financial collapse comes. The fine print is revealed in this shattering documentary. As Webb outlines, “It is now assured that in the implosion of the derivatives complex, collateral will be swept up on a vast scale. The plumbing to do this is in place. Legal certainty has been established that the collateral can be taken immediately and without judicial review, by entities described in court documents as ‘the protected class’. Even sophisticated professional investors, who were assured that their securities are ‘segregated’, will not be protected.” That these legal constructs are in place now is irrefutable. Congressional investigation into, and remedies for, these legal constructs is urgently needed!”

    – – –

    I am watching it now and it is really good. Really helps the viewer understand the new laws applied to the financial system that, unless challenged, allows all assets – even ones fully owned without debt – to be taken.

    • The video is 1:13:35 duration.
      The ending is hopeful and provides some potential solutions / action items.

    • Jo-ann,
      I’m glad that I caught your post this evening when I had some open time. Just finished watching.
      You are right – This is really good!
      I have a strong interest in the type of financial stuff which David Webb details.
      It kept me glued.

    • Thanks for sharing! (A bit visually dramatic for my taste, but very compelling). I like to think that some very influential people will resonate with this important information, if they hear it. But hoium isn’t really my thing. That’s not to discourage the sharing of this message, I’m just not banking on it. (no pun intended).
      However, I do believe that some key power-players may not be fully aware of the potential/inevitable consequences of the financial catastrophe at hand. So yes, spread the word to your credit unions, and banks, and state treasurers, and finance lawyers, and judges, and business owners. I’d rather have state-sovereign banks than the “too big to fail” centralized authority any day. Let’s see who we can reach. Download and send out that free pdf.

    • Homie,
      Interesting Sunday night TV. Watching that nutjob Gore say
      “Physiologically unlivable” mantra supports the crazy idea of mass migration. Al is saying trust the science, we can change the local weather back to a garden of Eden type love zone. How about we open the polar regions to migration by weather modification. Where will the moral imperative stop and acceptance of ones bad choices begin?. I take it Al sees economic enrichment as the goal and the person’s as inconvenient nessesities.
      Oh,and by the way, I hope you have a Merry American Christmas 🎄.

    • You can not say “no shit” to anything Al Gorsky has to say because that would be exclusive. We have to be inclusive in this day and age and if someone’s peddling shit only then “no shit” simply no passaran. Sorry, homes!

    Article re Government surveillance by Elizabeth Goitein @LizaGoitein

    https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1734249938333167889.html

    3 min read Twitter logo Read on Twitter

    Excerpt (emphasis added):
    “RED ALERT: Buried in the House intelligence committee’s Section 702 “reform” bill, which is schedule for a floor vote as soon as tomorrow, is the biggest expansion of surveillance inside the United States since the Patriot Act. 1/11

    “Through a seemingly innocuous change to the definition of “electronic service communications provider,” the bill vastly expands the universe of U.S. businesses that can be conscripted to aid the government in conducting surveillance. 2/11

    “Under current law, the government can compel companies that have direct access to communications, such as phone, email, and text messaging service providers, to assist in Section 702 surveillance by turning over the communications of Section 702 targets. 3/11

    “Under Section 504 of the House intelligence committee’s bill, any entity that has access to *equipment* on which communications may be transmitted or stored, such as an ordinary router, is fair game. What does that mean in practice? It’s simple… 4/11

    “Hotels, libraries, coffee shops, and other places that offer wifi to their customers could be forced to serve as surrogate spies. They could be required to configure their systems to ensure that they can provide the government access to entire streams of communications. 5/11

    “Even a repair person who comes to fix the wifi in your home would meet the revised definition: that person is an “employee” of a “service provider” who has “access” to “equipment” (your router) on which communications are transmitted. 6/11

    “The bill’s sponsors deny that Section 504 is intended to sweep so broadly. What *is* the provision intended to do, and how is the government planning to use it? Sorry, that’s classified. 7/11 “

  30. Regarding the environment: I need a succinct summary that makes the distinction between

    1) the damage done by the big agro farming industry, and big business in general – taking down trees/building on flood plains etc etc
    versus
    2) the false narrative on climate emergency and why that is happening.

    Could anyone help? or point me to some articles of that ilk?
    I know Corbett amongst others has done LOADs of brilliant material on this but I struggle to summarise it.

    • @tessr

      I appreciate your comment because I feel that being able to distinguish between the two is extremely important. It is a complex issue because what is perceived by one human being as “damage done” (to the environment/ecosystems we depend on to survive) is perceived by another human as “acceptable losses/sacrifice in the name of creating jobs, stabilizing the economy and/or creating a bunch of fun ipads, EVs and other toys”.

      Much of the unstable weather events we have been seeing in past decades are the result of weather warfare technologies (such as stratospheric aerosol injection operations and targeted ionospheric heating arrays) in combination with other factors such as deforestation (which leads to desertification and destabilizing of rain patterns).

      Much of the “climate emergency” alarmism is nothing more than carefully scripted propaganda intended to serve as a vehicle for totalitarian global governance shackles to be slipped onto people while convincing them it is “for the good of the planet”. JC and JEP have exposed this aspect of the agenda very well in their material on here.

      Now with regards to the actual “damage” that is being done to the environment.

      If you ask me, considering that primary forests produce much of the oxygen we breath, they stabilize precipitation patterns and mitigate the harm of flooding events via holding soil together with roots, while also encouraging water to penetrate into the soil, then propagating natural precipitation patterns (through evapotranspiration and rain drop nucleation via releasing pollen) any conventional agricultural or other industrial resource extraction operation that is involved with chopping those primary forests down, is unacceptable, irrational, and in essence represents a sort of suicidal operation where we are destroying the very fabric of the ecosystems we depend on to survive.

      If you ask someone like this lady ( https://elizabethnickson.substack.com/p/the-epic-bullshit-of-catastrophic ) about clearcutting primary forests, she will tell you “It pays for education and universal ‘free’ health care.” So, to her, it is a good idea.

      So answering your question would first require us setting some kind of baseline on what we are defining “damage” as in the context of “big agro farming industry, and big business in general”.

      (continued..)

    • (continued from above..)

      I wrote this post ( https://gavinmounsey.substack.com/p/stumbling-into-the-ecumenopolis-or?utm_source=profile&utm_medium=reader2 ) in an effort to try and explore what “acceptable losses/damage” to the environment looks like for my self and others (as I think this is something that is not as clearly defined as it should be).

      How much damage done to the environment/remaining intact ecosystems (in the name of living a life of comfort and propping up our top heavy technologically dependent civilization and technological addictions) is too much?

      Is there no limit to how much is too much (if that damage is required in order to continue to allow us to live the way we do now, in perpetuity)?

      Is there is a limit how do we define it, and how should we strive to live in a way that respects that boundary?

      These are the kinds of questions I would love for JC to offer his two cents on and they are questions that come up a lot for me when I am discussing the reality of on going environmental degradation (in the name of corporate commodification) vs the “sustainable development” (agenda 21) propaganda.

      (continued..)

    • (..continued from above)

      I can share a few links below to other articles that touch on these issues (though they cover different complex and nuanced aspects of these issues, so I do not know if you could describe them as “succinct summaries”, but rather just helpful perspectives and pieces of the puzzle one can use to synthesis their own sussinctly summarized distinctions and understanding of this complex issue).

      First up:

      “From Bill Gates to the Great Refusal – Farmers on the Frontline”

      https://off-guardian.org/2022/07/28/from-bill-gates-to-the-great-refusal-farmers-on-the-frontline/

      (continued…)

    • (continued from above..)

      In closing I will share a link to a book that represents a perspective on the extreme end of the spectrum of prioritizing conservation of intact ecosystems

      “Bright Green Lies : How The Environmental Movement Lost It’s Way and What We Can Do About It” ( 2021) by Derrick Jensen, Lierre Keith and Max Wilbert:

      https://archive.org/details/derrick-jensen-bright-green-lies-monkfish-book-publishing-company-2021

      The authors of the book consider themselves to be what they call “Deep Green Environmentalists” and they make some very solid points about the fallacies of the so called “sustainable” “alternative energy technologies” (such as wind and solar/battery tech) however they also express other views I do not share. I still think their book is worth a read (even if it is only for the way they expose the EV, solar, wind, Big AG and logging industries true nature). I can share some select excerpts that get to the heart of the issue we are discussing above if you want me to save you some time and provide cliff notes.

      I hope some of this helps.

  31. Researchers develop a novel dry-powder inhaled vaccine platform.

    https://phys.org/news/2023-12-dry-powder-inhaled-vaccine-platform.html#google_vignette

    (Pssst, and it comes with its own pre-rolled $100 bill…)

    DECEMBER 13, 2023
    by Chinese Academy of Sciences
    ” [They] have developed a single-dose, dry-powder, inhalable vaccine platform using nano-micro composite multilevel structures that combines biodegradable microcapsules with protein nanoparticles displaying multiple antigens, thus induces a broad-spectrum immune response and expands the range of vaccine protection.”

    • Interesting. I wonder how (if) this is more beneficial than simply being exposed to the pathogen itself… assuming this is for public health, rather than surreptitious public poisoning.

  32. Have any of you come across a paper called

  34. How/why is it that absolutely no one covers Shiva Ayyadurai?

    • Non_profit,
      I have a theory. He’s an enigma to the duality of the American psychy. He is too smart for the American ego. He is not white enough for the American eye. He is too crass for the American ear. He is too ethically honest for the American outlaw. He is too East for the Westerner.
      He would make a wonderful one term President who would be dead in a year. He is a perfect Shiva at a perfect time. Creation can’t be implemented without destruction. The PTSB are destroying now for what they think will be their creation. However it may occur in a form most unpalatable and unexceptable to the destroyers.
      He is my choice for America for all the above reasons.
      An aside non_prophet…YouTube is covering him.

    Corey’s Digs published a 40-page report (available for purchase) on this topic. She was interviewed about this report on Children’s Health Defense (CHD-TV) in Oct. 2023:

    https://live.childrenshealthdefense.org/chd-tv/shows/financial-rebellion-with-catherine-austin-fitts/space-the-new-frontier-for-the-central-control-grid-with-corey-lynn-duplicate-Show-page/

    She discusses the report on her Rumble channel: https://rumble.com/v3nh3ad-dig-it-202-space-the-new-frontier-for-the-control-grid-special-report.html

    I do not recall this report being mentioned in recent months’ Open Threads or by The Corbett Report. I confess, I have not searched this site yet.

    Something to be aware of while we plan our future parallel society.

    • Description under CHD-TV video:

      ““You can’t understand the control grid without understanding the role of space.” Digital currency, blockchain, and tokenization require an endless supply of power to run. What if you had the ability to construct the central operation center for the entire control grid from a location with no real jurisdiction and no accessibility or oversight? Investigative journalist Corey Lynn returns to ‘Financial Rebellion’ to discuss her new jaw-dropping exposé.”

    • Thanks jo-anne for the link. Corey’s articles used to be free to read. A couple of years ago I purchased some of her longer articles. I like her work very much.
      But I quit subscribing to her a couple of years ago because her leads were so tantalizing that it was too much of a temptation to spend money I don’t have to read her! So I haven’t seen her for awhile. The link you posted I will buy because she summarizes succinctly so much pertinent information on her subject matter, and I like having hard copies of certain information.

  36. This song always reminds me of a famous carpenter from a little town called Nazareth.

    (The Weight | Featuring Ringo Starr and Robbie Robertson | Playing For Change | Song Around The World: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph1GU1qQ1zQ )

    Jesus was a very courageous and honorable man that we could all learn something from. The courage of the heart Jesus of Nazareth embodied in his actions offers us an a clear and unbreakable path to freedom, integrity, purpose, strength of the spirit and hope for tomorrow.

    He knew he would not see the seeds he planted in the hearts and minds of men grow onto their true potential in his lifetime, yet he planted them all the same. He chose to live with an unshakable faith and knowing that providence is as the dawn and the spring rain.. inviting the seeds we plant with love, selflessness, kindness, compassion and gentleness to germinate and grow onto their true potential.

    His choices in life represented a conscious act to refuse to capitulate to the edicts of a corrupt state/empire and it’s thought police goons that were telling him say stuff he did not want to (knowing that his refusing to capitulate would result in his being murdered) that is a courageous and noble act. Perhaps many of us would have chosen to capitulate, say uncle and read some script to the people to try and save our own skin and to appease the psychotic power hungry scribes, pharisees and Romans, but Jesus had the strength of character and moral fortitude to stand true to what he believed in, even knowing it would cost him dearly, I personally admire him for that.

    Jesus of Nazareth was not the only one who arrived on this beautiful Earth with the potential to send out big ripple effects into this young civilization on a world on the outskirts of the Milky Way Galaxy.

    Each one of us arrived on this Earth with seeds in our hand. Those seeds are the unique gifts within your being that can be unlocked when you look within, with humility and a want to leave this world a little bit more beautiful than it was when you arrived here.

    You are the gardener of the dreams of the tomorrow. Now is the time to discover and remember the seeds you brought with you, plant them in fertile soils and become one of the architects of a more beautiful world worth gifting onto future generations.

    Here is to a 2024 where you explore and tap into your God given gifts and plant the seeds for a more honest and beautiful world to begin to set down roots in each of your communities.

    Merry Christmas Everyone!

    • Well happy boxing day to you too Gavin.

      • @generalbottlewasher

        It is funny you should say that, as I actually did quite a bit of boxing today (not the pugilistic type, but rather putting books in boxes to be mailed out once the post office re-opens) 🙂

        Happy Boxing Day to you too!

        Cheers

    • I need to catch up on teachings of Jesus.

      Love your neihgbor. Sometimes loving gets tought. Often we have to hard things because of love.

      Do not judge. But accept to be judged by the same standard you expect of others.

      Follow the spirit of the low. As the words used to describe it will confound the true meaning.

      Merry Christmas.

      • @mkey

        Ya I probably need to do that as well. I have read a couple different bibles and done some inner exploration regarding the words he was reported to have said (years ago) but I think I would benefit from re-visiting his life, actions and words with new eyes. I intend for 2024 to be the year of taking a long hard look in the mirror and assessing if I am truly practicing what I preach (to the best of my ability) which means re-visiting hardened perspectives and opinions about subjects that are emotionally evocative to me.

        I came across this interesting perspective on the life of Jesus recently

        https://nevermoremedia.substack.com/p/was-jesus-christ-a-real-person

        What do you think?

        Thanks for sharing your insights and distilled truth my friend.

        May your next lap around our local star Sol invite opportunities for inspiration, empowering realizations, personal growth and nurturing prosperity of the spirit into your life.

        • I think you are doing quite well, Gavin. That’s coming from the perspective of someone who slips up every day.

          On the topic of Jesus it stands to reason that the whole story is based on a real man. And many such men through the ages, probably.

          It is questionble which parts are true, however. I am having a lot of trouble accepting some of the “facts”, like our current year being actual 2023. Since when? Did someone really say “today is day 0, we start counting?” Certainly not.

          Someone else did the counting and those people can’t be trusted. How would one even know how long ago Christ’s story goes back, trully? How many times was the story rewritten?

          Good thing is: details schmetails. Arguing about finer points only detracts from the teaching. To argue is pointless.

          Religion has a dual nature (like everything else) and it both attempts to teach us everything worth knowing and to bind us, hold us back. It us being wielded by unholy forces. Discerment is required as authors must rely on alegory to ensure the story may have a chance to survive through the ages.

          The teaching about inner kingdom and outer anarchy is key. It is the only path to prosperity and truth, because no truths can be based on lies. Everything else leads to slavery.

          • @mkey

            Thanks my friend, though there is always room for improvement and I have certainly stumbled and even slide backwards quite a bit this year (too much ‘nose to the grind stone’ mentality and not enough self-care/nature time).

            I suppose the whole ‘take an honest inventory of if I am doing everything humanly possible to practice what I preach’ intent for 2024 is also a way for me to challenge myself to actively engage in each and every thing I describe in my book so that I can see if I need to hone or completely reformulate those techniques for my next book. I mean I have done all the practical stuff I describe in my book at least once, but some things I let go by the way side (like vermicomposting, maintaining a sourdough starter and using Koji to ferment legumes regularly). So I wanna really dig into things like that and try to learn how to optimize the processes for unlocking future potentials.

            I like your modo of ‘details schmetails’ (avoiding needlessly arguing) with regards to the nitty gritty of life details of spiritual teachers etc.

            “Discerment is required as authors must rely on alegory to ensure the story may have a chance to survive through the ages.

            The teaching about inner kingdom and outer anarchy is key. It is the only path to prosperity and truth, because no truths can be based on lies. Everything else leads to slavery.”

            Well said.

            Thanks for the insightful and kind comment.

  37. I’m wishing everyone a Happy Holiday! I want the best for everyone. I hope everyone has a magical New Year and more. Take care.

  38. Has anyone here read a book called “The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity” (2021)

    by David Graeber and David Wengrow ?

    ( Full digital copy of the book can be accessed here: https://archive.org/stream/graeber-wengrow-dawn/The%20Dawn%20of%20Everything%20-%20David%20Graeber%20%26%20David%20Wengrow_djvu.txt )

    Crow Qu’appelle (of NEVERMORE MEDIA) describes the book by saying:

    “It basically completely revolutionizes the history of the Western intellectual tradition, including the Enlightenment, natural law theory, and much, much more. I’m not exaggerating..

    ..The major achievement of Graeber and Wengrow is to restore what they call The Indigenous Critique (of Western Civilization) to its proper place in history.

    Prior to reading The Dawn of Everything, I was not aware of the term the indigenous critique, and I definitely hope that it enters the vernacular.

    What is the indigenous critique, you ask? Well, basically, when Europeans arrived to Turtle Island (aka “North America”) they encountered very different societies than those they were accustomed to. Those societies had very different cultures, each with their own intellectual tradition.

    The collision of two completely separate intellectual traditions led to the creation of an indigenous critique of European society, which Graeber and Wengrow call THE INDIGENOUS CRITIQUE.

    The Indigenous Critique refers to critiques of European society which were developed by Turtle Islanders.

    Elizabeth Whitworth explains:

    In the late 1600s, European colonists in North America became engaged in philosophical discussions with the indigenous peoples of that land. Some of the indigenous people and the colonists learned to speak one another’s languages fluently. Graeber and Wengrow explain that the native North Americans had strong philosophical traditions and skilled orators who challenged European colonial officials in debates.

    This is really wonderful, because for all the talk of decolonizing academia, the standard narrative is still of a vastly technologically superior civilization overrunning much more primitive societies in the New World.

    In some cases, indigenous intellectuals travelled to Europe in order to study and understand feudal society. One such person was a Huron-Wendat leader named Kondiaronk, also known as Le Rat, who seems to have impressed everyone he ever met with his great brilliance.

    Whitworth continues:

    In New France, Wendat leader Kandiaronk raised scathing critiques of European social customs and values, particularly criticizing monarchical rule, social hierarchies, emphasis on the accumulation of wealth and materialism, and punitive justice systems. These descriptions then made their way back to Europe, where they were widely distributed among the intellectual class and, Graeber and Wengrow argue, became the inspiration for much Enlightenment thought.

    (continued in another comment..)

    • (..continued from the comment above)

      In other words (according to Crow Qu’appelle) one of the most important thinkers in the history of the Western intellectual tradition was an indigenous anarchist from what’s now called Canada.

      One of the major cultural differences the Europeans and indigenous people found they had was the notion of equality and its connection to freedom. Indigenous ideas about equality and freedom directly conflicted with the European notions of social status and a natural hierarchy.

      Graeber and Wengrow say that Europe before the 1700s lacked a notion of social equality. They believed that some people are naturally higher or lower in status and authority than others. They lived in monarchies and they derived that system from biblical notions of nobility and authority. In other words, God (or rather some human’s declarations of what ‘God’s will’ is in religious institutions) decided one’s station in life.

      By contrast, many of the Native American cultures had no notion that anyone could be born higher or lower in status than anyone else or that anyone could have authority over anyone else. In such cultures, status might be gained with age or according to merit. But the notion that people are inherently unequal or that any status could give someone the right to dominate someone else would not have existed in this kind of cultural worldview.”

      ————–

      I am about 1/3 of the way through the book now myself. While discovering the historical details of the so called “indigenous critique” has filled in some important pieces of the puzzle for me, I am also seeing that as I have gotten to the part of the book talking about the indigenous peoples that lived along the Mississippi River, what is now called California, Northeastern Canada and Northwestern Canada and referring to them as “hunter/gatherers and/or foragers” the authors appear to know nothing about how many indigenous people cultivated food.

      I have seen evidence from multiple sources that people who called those lands home actually had extremely advanced food cultivation and farming systems that seamlessly blended with existing forest ecology.

      Thus, they did not simply forage, but rather actively managed (and even enhanced ecosystems biodiversity) in order to produce an abundance of nutrient dense food (and in a way that expresses an advanced understanding of botany, the interdependence of species and soil ecology).

      Here is a link to a video presentation that explores of those ancient methods

      “Architects of Abundance: Indigenous Food Systems and the Excavation of Hidden History” by Dr. Lyla June
      youtube.com/watch?v=UxxRV44-wZ0

      Even so, based on what I have read so far, I think the book is worth a read. Despite having some gaping omissions with regards to effectively describing the indigenous societies of North America it offers well referenced glimpses into other areas that desperately need illumination and discussion.

  39. Hey Folks, It’s January, but barely! On a ligher note, it’s Tolkien’s Birthday! To those who celebrate, and like to do an old school toast and chronicle (=forum), come to https://birthdaytoast.org. There are not too many spaces where not having a social media hashtag means zip, and for those of us who love freedom and Middle Earth… see you there 🙂

    • @Caveat Mentor

      Thanks for that.

      In honor of Tolkien’s inspiration of countless other authors I share the following : https://charleseisenstein.substack.com/p/a-temple-of-this-earth

      “..The One Ring is dehumanization. It is how dark powers rule this earth: they induce us to dehumanize each other. It is indeed a mighty weapon, and we might indeed turn it against our rulers and overthrow them. But it isn’t hard to imagine what the new rulers would be like, so sure they are in the right, so sure of the evil of those who oppose them, so practiced in the arts of ridicule and mockery, laughing at degrading caricatures of their opponents.

      The wielder of the One Ring says, “Join me in the humiliation of the bad people.” She invokes the power of the mob and unleashes it on her opponents. All for a good cause, the cause of freedom, the cause of justice, only to be used until good prevails at last. Unfortunately, she has fed the very monster she seeks to overthrow. She will always fear it. She will seek not to disband the mob but to direct it, lest she become its next sacrificial victim. The ring devours its wearer.

      Let us instead cast the One Ring back into the fires whence it came. How? Through billions of everyday interactions, in private and public discourse. There is another instrument we can wield that is greater than dehumanization. We might call it love. Taking many forms, it draws on the truth of each other’s divine humanness (the Christ) and our fundamental inseparability (Interbeing). It can take the form of courtesy, of humor, or of reason. It can express anger without hate, responsibility without blame, and truth without self-righteousness. It opens others up to listen: sensing they are not under attack, they feel less need to defend. By putting connecting ahead of convincing, it has the uncanny power to change minds far more effectively than any frontal assault of evidence and logic. To wield this instrument, we must be willing to be changed ourselves—that willingness is itself a powerful invitation. Without it, what reason have you to expect that anyone’s mind will change? This is the kind of humility that results from seeing others in their full humanity. Through it we can reclaim the power of the word, the power of agreement, the power of coherency. Holding each other sacred, we will make a temple of this earth.”

    DEEP RESISTANCE: PHILOSOPHICAL PRACTICES OF SANITY (PART 1)

    https://winteroak.org.uk/2024/01/05/deep-resistance-philosophical-practices-of-sanity-part-1/

    Here is an excerpt where the author explains the purpose of this series:

    “The purpose of these exercises will be to create for us a grounding in reality/nature. This will then, in turn, provide the basis from which the self is able to see through (critique) contemporary social customs and ideologies. Such a self is empowered to act from the deep wellsprings of existence against those ideologies and the structures they support.

    “Further, we will see how structures of domination always entail a turning away from the real and the natural. They are false. Further, they are bad. To the extent that they are internalized by the subject, he or she becomes, strictly speaking, insane (their perceptions and thoughts are separated from reality). To overcome those, first by expelling them from the self, then by eventually confronting them in the social world, is to reclaim our sanity, individually and socially.”

    Near the end of Part 1, he states an important truth: “…if we can’t live beyond fear, our ‘resistance’ is futile…”

    Looking forward to Part 2.

  41. Where’s my January 2024 open thread? Also, when u gone get an invite on an Ickonic program, Jimmy?! Gareth Icke just had James Roguski on…

      • Why? He is an inspiring speaker, but in all the video interviews I have seen, he tells the same story. He has his own platform, so what is the value in speaking on the C.R.?

        Just curious.

        • First of all, Icke has a huge audience – much larger than James’, I’m sure. It’d be good exposure for James and his worldview to get introduced to Icke’s and his network’s, since there might not exist a huge overlap there. Secondly, all these mf’ers need to start talking with each other outside of their exisitng echo chambers. the Nazis (dissident right, etc.) need to start talking to the libertarian voluntaryists (and vice versa); woo conspiratards need to start talking to these adjacent groups, yadda yadda. I fucking demand it. I will engage in Crowleyean ritual magickal ceremonies in the New Mexico desert to make this a reality, believe you me.

          Corbet used to go on Red Ice, for example. Why not any more? Fucking go on Red Ice again, James. Who gives af if some of your granola, basic bitch supporters (or associates, like JEP) wouldn’t like it. Fuck them. Do it.

          There are other hosts and programs on Ickonic.com than David Icke, too. Folks like Patrick Henningson (21st Century Wire) and Sean Stone are doing multiple episode series programs on the Icke platform as well. Hell, I see Alex Jones has even been with Gareth Icke in 2021. Why couldn’t James do this? I’m so goddamned tired of hearing the voice of Ernest Hanock. We all know Whitney Webb and James Corbett have the same audience and are preaching to the choir. Go outside your comofort zone, goys.

          No more contradicting or naysaying me or this premise, Corbetters (see: ‘jo-ann’). I won’t stand for it. This is going to happen in 2024. Power of positive thinking, and if that doesn’t work, child sacfrice to dark gods. Get the fuck on Ickonic, James, unless you want me to start feeding Jewish and Palestinian children to Moloch. And if that’s the case, and you really do want me to sacfice innocent children to a firey effigy of a chief fallen angel, then shame on you and I will cancel my subscription to your website.

          • so many typos. Apologies to the dark ones to whom I serve. I should have performed spell check on Word before I posted.

    “FOREWORD

    “Outright opposition to modernity is often dismissed as backward-looking or “reactionary” and associated with a rigidly hierarchical or aristocratic outlook.

    “But there is another tradition of resistance to the modern world that has very different ideals and can serve as the basis of an old-new radical philosophy of natural and cosmic belonging, inspiring humanity to step away from the nightmare transhumanist slave-world into which we are today being herded.

    “In this important series of ten essays, originally published on the Winter Oak website between October and December 2023, contributor W.D. James, who teaches philosophy in Kentucky, USA, explores the roots and thinking
    of what he terms “egalitarian anti-modernism”.

    Please bring back the old comments section with a few improvements that have a search function for cataloging and locating commenters posts.

    I left you a brat,mustard, sour kraut, rolls and a styne of you favorite beer on the kitchen table.

    • man that sounds like a nice spread!

      You know what i`m gonna be having for dinner tonight now : )

      (ps – I also second this request for santa)

      • Christmas came and went so fast this last year. It seemed to me an unrecognisable event. Miss those old days. In its place melancholy has taken root.
        Time I suppose to go outside and start the garden,eh?
        Start something new?

        • @GBW

          I feel your pain brother. Especially with the majority of my blood relatives having gone covidian cult mode and how my memories of Christmas are rooted in our family traditions of going on a Christmas day hike up a mountain with a thermos full of hot apple cider spiked with rum and having a camp fire at night, I do feel a sort of emptiness given I was excommunicated from their lives after I refused to drink the koolaid.

          My wife and i exchanged some handmade gifts this year and had a great meal together, which was nice.. but there is a part of the nostalgic version of Christmas I used to be excited about that is now a dead and a thing of the past.

          So yes! Let us redirect our giving spirit of jollyness and generosity to the living Earth, planting seeds and harvesting gifts, sharing the resulting abudance.

          Perhaps we can create new traditions that will form new kinds of Nostalgia for us in the future and gift it to future generations as well?

          There is a guy that writes about Anarchism on substack that goes by the name Crow Qu’appelle and he was writing about a process called Ethnogenesis which got me thinking about holidays like Christmas (which even if one is Christian, most agree is not even the actual day Jesus was born on so, it is more about the Early Church’s efforts to induct people from other religions by aligning with their pre-existing traditions than anything else). Perhaps we can do better?

          Ethnogenesis, refers to efforts to create counter-cultures which are permanent, or put another way, it is idea is that people who come together and embody a new way of living, begin to redefine themselves as a completely separate and distinct culture (or “Parallel Society”).

          In the following video, for instance, the anarchist anthropologist David Graeber explains how many indigenous nations that exist today began as countercultures who rejected some aspect of the culture that they were previously a part of.

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0oOod0nu3I

          It is apparently a recurring pattern throughout time that cultures are forever breaking apart and rejoining in various ways.

          Why not go about this process intentionally? Perhaps we can intentionally engage in “Ethnogenesis” within our communities all over the Earth, creating new traditions grounded in Mr. Corbett’s definition of the pursuit of Hap-piness, integrity, reciprocity, courage, honesty and fun! : )

          I almost attempted to engage in a suggestion for a new tradition and cultural celebration in my book (which I was going to call “Inter-dependance Day” as a sort of play on words of the American holiday but more aimed at honoring, celebrating, giving back to and acknowledging our interconnectedness and interdependence with the ecosystems where we live instead of nationalism) but printing budget constraints made me have to cut it out.

          If you were going to invent a new celebration or tradition as part of an intentional ethnogenesis what would it be?

          Thanks for the comment my friend.

          • Certainly no one day holiday would do. I say a stateless week of homemade crafts , music or of commercial activity centered on giving and sharing . No tax, no utility service fees, no medical fees ,no fines and only the most egregious crimes punished by the police. No interest calculated on money, saved or borrowed. Something like Thanksgiving, Octoberfest, Mardi Gras Christmas, Day of the Dead and New Years Eve , Armistice Day, Pardons for nonviolent inmates, 4th of July, Boxing Day, parades, community shows,music concerts everyday of the week. All combined in an endless recognition of the citizen 5 days in a row . The first to prepare, the last to seek out the homeless and share with them one day of shelter. Every year untill no homeless can be found.

            Since it’s a dream , let’s dream big!

            • Yes!

              What an awesome vision, I like the spirit of kindness, jubilation and gratitude that is infused in there. Thanks for that! : )

              I will contemplate those themes and ideas as I write my next book.

              Regarding the word “citizen”, what does that word mean to you?

              When I think of the word citizen, it makes me think of being “civilized”, “civilization”, swearing fealty to nation states and feeding into smart “cities” but perhaps it means something different to other people.

              • Citizen,

                Person of a local community, known of by that community.

                Basically no invisible person. You really got to be/act bad to become invisible.
                One who is not shunned.

                Since.this exercise is make believe, one must assume a person has no anonymity. This to me is being invisible, which is ludicrous.

              • @GBW

                Thank you for inviting me to expand my understanding of the potential use of that word to include a more positive definition.

                I like your definition of the word and will contemplate that perspective further.
