One could be forgiven for feeling a sense of despair given the seemingly endless trajectory of chaos, deception and war encompassing our blessed planet at this time.

Wherever one turns, someone is exploiting someone else in order to gain some advantage in the bruising battle for material, psychological and religious power. 

It looks as though there is nothing or  Something broad and powerful with which to seriously counteract the downward spiral.

When and if such heroic voices do manage to break the surface, the architects of control move in to silence them.

In spite of the pulling down effect of living under the mantle of an odiously oppressive top down regime – I don’t believe it is terminal.

Mankind is amazingly resilient; all the more so when its back is pressed up against a wall.

But, day in day out, the dark side of life is ruthlessly played-upon, providing the dominant images that cover the screens of our televisions, computers and newspaper front pages. All of which, over a number of decades, have become controlled conduits for the exploitation of our minds – rather than crucial aids for the expansion of our awareness.

Media editors are the first in line for control by the wealthy warring factions that seek to carve up our world and turn it into their private personal fiefdoms. Islands of top down control and unlimited wealth.

Step back from ‘media’ and one will find one’s sense of daily depression to be immediately eased. 

The stories being highlighted are the one’s the deep state decrees to be necessary for diverting mankind’s attention from acquiring the powers to independently control its destiny.

Look around, and see how normal mortals are actually quite human (after all) – not out to do each other in at the first available opportunity, or rob you the minute you drop your guard.

Human beings actually want to live together in peace and prosperity. It’s predominantly the massive distortion of wealth distribution in this world that drives basically good people to become antisocial scavengers in their struggle to survive.

It is these distortions that the bought-out media play-on, to keep our attention focused on the dark side of human affairs.

Money buys power – and a lot of money buys a lot of power. 

Switching on your ‘media’ means being instantly immersed in stories of millionaires, multi millionaires and billionaires, throwing their political weight around while fully intent on building up their narcissistic empires across the globe.

If not this, then the other side of the coin grabs the media headlines: the attempts being made to break into these fortunes by materialistically obsessed opportunists and jealous billionaire status aspirants.

Today, such well known, well healed tycoons have bought their way into high office, or are simply holding a sword over those who resist their hegemony. 

Authoritarian despots need mega wealth to show how ‘powerful’ they are – or if not in the mega wealth league – they need to have a hook on those who are – so as to blackmail their way into similar positions of power.

While all this mud slinging is going on, the number of dispossessed, impoverished and outright starving is growing.

Recorded images show the tragically sparse conditions in which such individuals live and revealing the extent to which most are rendered incapable of raising themselves up and enjoying a decent existence. 

Nine million people die from hunger-related causes every year; many are children under the age of five (World Concern). 

But the top-brass simply does not care. Not one iota.

The chief executive of the Goldman Sachs banking empire, David Solomon, was recently given a 26% pay rise to $39 million a year – and an advanced sweetener of $80 million, in case he felt offended by the sum on offer.

The kings of the AI Silicon Valley empire see no limits to financial earnings at their disposal for the development of robotic, cybernetic ‘thinking’ technologies. Their ruthless digital and algorithmic ambitions literally devour the electronics and rare earth metals market, and nothing seems worth bothering about if it doesn’t have the expectation of ten digit figure returns.

So this is the divided world we live in today – and are expected to accept as ‘the norm’. Worse, we are further invited to indulge in its delusional rank hypocrisies and not to ask questions about how such an inhuman nightmare could ever have come to be.

“You want something different? Get yourself some virtual reality gear and lose yourself in a digital wonderland.”

How can good, caring people of this world – who are the great majority of mankind – find a way through the insanity and build some sane alternative?

We all want to know this, don’t we? 

Yes, I though so..

So that’s a good starting point. To be united around a wish to be part of building something positive in the face of a sea of intense brainwashing, is actually a major step in the right direction.

But it soon becomes apparent that we each have a different idea/vision of what would constitute a widely acceptable common set of actions to get things moving forward.

Rather than let such deviations deflate enthusiasm, we should be united in declaring that the most fundamental objective is quite simply ‘to take control of our destinies’. Starting at the individual level and moving on to become a collective effort.

This means digging our way out of subordination to the crooks who vampire our creative energies while keeping us trapped within a web of perverse rules and regulations that strangle our most basic freedoms, human rights and needs.

Yes, it turns out that there is unanimity about the veracity of this objective. That this is indeed the fundamental imperative – one that constitutes a second major step in the right direction. 

And we are drawn much closer together by sharing a sense of mutual determination.

By necessity, cells of positively primed, determined individuals will devise ways to break their dependence on the demands of the ever more suffocating and cruel status quo.

This is, in activist circles, called ‘non compliance’, and it is the incremental increase in the number of those embracing such non compliance that will finally break the back of our oppressors. 

Increasing non compliance (including civil disobedience) with the deep state dystopian agenda, bought-out governments, mega corporations, banking institutions and all other deeply repressive members of the ‘full spectrum dominance’ death cult – will finally undermine the whole rotten show and send a blast of liberating humanitarian energy into the far corners of the earth.

Every day, millions invent excuses – why ‘they’ can’t. A cynical smile cools the natural warmth of their hearts as they tell themselves why it is that ‘they’ will not be giving any of their time to calling out injustice, defeating fascism and giving a future to tomorrow’s children. 

Don’t be one of those nowhere men or women. Don’t be complicit in knowingly leaving open doors for the totalitarian take over that the dark cult is working to put in place.

Don’t let your life stand for selfish seclusion and pessimism. That is a premeditated act of suicide.

‘Taking control of our destinies’ is what we all want to do – once we can see beyond the deceptive lure of slavery. 

So it only remains to get out of bed on the right side, overcome any nagging sense of indolence and procrastination – and become actively involved in the struggle to build the future we want – based on justice, liberty, truth and love.

We came here to take on – and to win – this great battle for the full emancipation of humanity.
