All deception is for
control-Animal Farm Revisited
"If we can but prevent the government from wasting the
labours of the people, under the pretence of taking care of them, they must
become happy." -- Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Cooper, November 29, 1802
Benevolent totalitarianism is the concept of government control by
and through deception, always purporting to "take care of us." For
more than 100 years, America has operated as a benevolent totalitarianism. But
what happens when totalitarianism ceases to be benevolent?
If benevolent totalitarianism is subtle, outright totalitarianism
is open warfare on the people. That is what we have in America. We now find
ourselves dealing with outright attacks on the people as government exerts
greater control in order to suppress dissent over unconstitutional suppression
of liberty.
Many of those deceived welcome the government "doing
something," and in fact have been trained to turn to the government for
all their needs, as intended. But manna to the group is poison to the
individual.
You must by now know the phrase "divide and conquer."
First, they divided our families. Then they divided the people against each
other (Democrats vs Republicans, haves and have-nots, employed and unemployed,
illegals and citizens). It is the evolvement of this strategy that has brought
us to our present state. We have been "socially distanced" from every
other American. Beware these code words! Tyranny follows! It is here!
That America is a fascist Nation is no longer deniable. Fascism,
as described by Benito Mussolini, is the merger of state and corporate power.
How else would you ascribe piling $20,000 in debt on top of the head of each
American and giving that money to corporations, while you got, in return, a
check for $1,200?
All significant legislation passed in recent years has been designed
to either increase the power of the state to control the people, to increase
the power and wealth of corporations or to strengthen their symbiotic
relationship.
As legislation that accomplishes these things is detrimental to
the best interests of the people, it can be described only as the first salvos
that were fired against the people. All current legislation — and especially
"executive" action requiring legal punishment — is in violation of
the U.S. Constitution.
America was designed as a representative republic, with
Representatives elected by the people to represent their interests when laws
are passed. Senators were to be selected by the States to represent the
interests of their States. Neither the Congress nor the President is answerable
to the people or the States today. They answer only to their corporate sugar
daddies and NGOs (non-governmental organizations) that operate behind the
scenes.
You never elected these folks
These NGOs, dominated by moneyed interests, include, but are not limited
to, the Federal Reserve, The Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign
Relations, The World Health Organization, World Economic Forum, and various and
sundry "think tanks" propped up by the same corporate sugar daddies
lining the pockets of Congress.
The names of the people running and funding these NGOs are mostly
familiar and pop up from time to time in various ways in government and out:
appearing in Presidential cabinets, heading alphabet soup government agencies,
sitting on the boards of corporations, running the World Bank, etc.
Theirs are the corporations that receive the contracts for
government business as it makes war on other countries, move in to rape and
pillage the natural resources of Third World countries (see The Secret History
of American Empire and Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, both by John
Perkins) or fulfill the mandates of legislation (insurance, Big Pharma, Goldman
Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, etc.).
In 2008, against the wishes of the majority of America, George W.
Bush pushed through the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), a $700 billion
boondoggle of largess to bail out the banksters and their criminal
co-conspirators on Wall Street. To sell it, Bush employed classic Orwellian
doublethink saying, "I’ve abandoned free market principles to save the
free market system."
Opposition to this criminal transfer of wealth from the middle
class to the wealthy bankster criminals — whose illegal activity combined with
Federal Reserve money printing caused the collapse — spawned the Tea Party
movement, since crushed by the establishment GOP elites. What can we expect to
happen to America after the "Coronavirus Relief Package" nearly
tripled the original bailouts with another $2 trillion a mere decade later?
The tragically misnamed Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
was likewise passed against the wishes of the American people. Then and current
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi mockingly told us we would have to wait until
it was passed to find out what’s in it. As bad as the Obamacare deathcare
system looked then, it looks even worse now.
There is a crackdown on what’s left of free speech. Sure, you can
"say" what you want, but prepare to be canceled. "Say"
anything freely and your life as you know it is over. You will be branded a
traitor or worse. Your family will suffer. Your 1st Amendment rights have been
stripped away. And get too close to the truth and there are serious
consequences.
History shows that as regimes begin to fail they become more
onerous, more aggressive and finally more violent toward their own citizens.
The American system is in a state of decay unless something changes
drastically. Unfortunately, the recent drastic changes are for the worse. Will
the results of the election help? One can only hope the people are again
beginning to be spurred to action as they were in 2008... but I hope you have
continued to prepare as I and others have advised.
Educate those you care about as to the mechanics of defense and
preparedness. Not many will listen as long as they perceive no crisis. Go here for a complete
guide. It is clear and straightforward, to counter the artifices of deception,
which are almost everything you read and hear.
We will never get off the animal farm until we recognize the
façade of benevolent totalitarianism and the absolute despotism behind it.
Yours for the truth,

23 Prepper Items to Look
For at the Goodwill Store
Stockpiling food, water, and supplies to sustain you and your
family for a long time can get very expensive. For some, it just isn't feasible
to spend hundreds of dollars or more every week buying supplies that won't be
used right away.
Don't be embarrassed. Most people can't afford to do that. The
trick is to buy used supplies so you can put the money you save toward your
food purchases.
Shopping at thrift stores like the Goodwill store is a great way
to save money. It's extremely satisfying to score a good deal on something you
really need. You'll find yourself bragging about how cheap something was rather
than how expensive it was...

5 Winter Bug Out Tips You
Should Know
Bugging out in the winter can be a harsh reality if the SHTF
during the cold season. You’ll often hear about some of the best items to put
in your bug out bag or even best practices to find resources when the SHTF, but
you seldom hear about doing all of that in the winter.
For a lot of people, bugging out is usually pictured in warm
temperatures where things are relatively easy to accomplish. Once you add
freezing temperatures and an abundance of precipitation to the mix, it tends to
change things up.
If you’re new to bugging out or want some tips for the colder
season, this guide will give you some valuable advice if you have to bug out in
the winter...

Sure sounds like what I've said for decades-some pigs -Dem-Socialists] are more equal than others...
Since few schools today teach reading & writing, I wonder how many of our youth ever read Animal Farm or 1984?!
Too many fools don't realize how gov't screws them; they no longer know how to analyze anything.
