Indeed, but not even scratching the darkness under the surface. Anyone who has seen the images of the DNC with the cheerleading participants that was reminiscent of any Reichsparteitag - having not succumbed to the acute derangement syndrome prevalent - knew that the jig is up. Anybody that ever asked the Germans the now famous question "How could you have let this happen?" must now ask "Why do you let this happen?"

Why are people cheering like braindead zombies, while a genocide is perpetrated in their name and funded with their tax dollars, that is already outperforming every disgusting crime against humanity and every war crime in real human history?

Why is it possible to destroy the wellbeing of western populations by funnelling trillions of funds into a money laundering proxy war of Nazi-loving war criminals?

Is it because the majority of people in the west are so brain amputated that they are unable to comprehend that the real goal is the reduction of the global population by any and all means necessary? Are people so degenerated into believing that it is the "others" that will be censored, incarcerated and murdered? Exterminated by weather warfare, poisonous/carcinogenic 'food' supplies, fumigated like pests and driven into abject poverty.

When I was young, I suffered from nasty visions. Most of them I forgot during life. One never went away:

"A time will come where people wish they were never born." That time is now.

If you studied History, not as it is written, or rewritten, by the current victors, and that takes some effort as the Academic world let alone the media, in the "west", has been entirely subverted, bought, contaminated by the "Atlantists", you may well discover the seminal bond between the Capitalists/Colonialists/Imperialists of lore and todays' Hegemon. Empire building has a solid genocidal foundation, vastly exceeding in numbers the current body count. But that was yesterday and we had a civilising mission to fulfil, the price of progress and all that jazz... indeed. America as the inheritor of all this glorious past, presents a major problem, even discarding the muppets on show, the braying Harris or the trumpeting Trump, what a tragicomic choice, but they are irrelevant in the grander scheme of things, just a distraction for the bamboozled masses, the "circenses" part, the real problem is the paymasters behind, the so-called deep state viscous blob, who totally mis-reads their chances and the real balance of power, Las Vegas poker players with a pair of sevens, bluffing their way, as usual but confronting this time around a Brics wall, far tighter and formidable than the proverbial Wall street Chinese wall, which ain't by the way, trust me on that account...or the puny-tive wall surrounding the Palestinians, so the problem, before I meander further away, is that this pair of sevens is nuclear and could well trigger the Big Bang...in which case we are all History...point final...la solution finale by the survivors of the last one. Another Ruse/Paradox of History?

If we survive that hypothesis we will need to de-nazify more than just Israel and Ukraine.

I agree.

We have allowed money to take possession of our future

Our childhood principles of honesty and truth have been blanked out by our nation's indoctrination to comply withthe orders of the market or else.

There was an interesting conversation on C.J. Hopkins' substack yesterday. (https://cjhopkins.substack.com/p/the-global-crackdown-on-dissent). Although I wanted to write a comment, I couldn't. It felt too much of commenters being unable to see the forest for the trees.

This is the consequence of generations subjected to indoctrination. Especially the world of finances is dominated by gaslighting and victim shaming. When it comes to "Capitalism" everybody has an opinion, but few ever get to the roots of the present problems. Adding an "-ism" to anything, is the equivalent of "for the sake of". In the case of "Capitalism", it means "for the sake of Capital". With "Capitalism", every policy aims at increasing the presence of capital. There was a song by Dan del Santo called "Money is their God here in America" and that is as spot on as it can be.

From the notion and understanding by Alan Watts - that money has no value in itself, it is like inches, or ounces a means of measurement - to the glorification, celebration and worshiping of its presence beyond need, required a thorough brain washing/programming. "From the dishwasher to a billionaire" should be understood as a conditioning towards the accumulation of assets. In short, everybody can end up having more than they actually need - if You adhere to the Mantra that the only real problem man has, is a lack of funds. Emphasized by policies enforced by 'governments' controlled by billionaires. Capitalism is antagonistic to Humanism, but if You say that, You are called a Communist/Socialist or whatever insult suits. What populations in the west now experience is the sacrifice of Humanism for the accumulation of capital. With the many having to be stripped of their miniscule assets in order to be controlled. The longer these populations remain in denial about what capitalism really means, the worse will become the conditions under which they are forced to exist. It is therefor the many that have it in their hands to bring about change - by remembering what it really means to be human. Before it simply means to be expendible, a liability - part of "too many".

As I have written about before: "There are not too many humans on planet Earth. There are too any billionaires."

A Zen master whom I liked said: "Beware of all words ending in -isms...rheumatism...alcoholism...capitalism/communism... and the true Master's touch...Buddhism...Cheers!

It is a pleasure to explore the conclusions of this thread. Thanks be given to Alex for making this possible. Sadly, Vanessa Beely does not allow for comments for free subscribers, but the conversation between the two is another well of inspiration.

To the "-ism" - which I am aware regarding the notion of the Zen Master via Alan Watts - I had this ironic realization after reading Your comment. You may find it entertaining and food for more thought.

I belong to a segment of the "baby boomer" generation that was diagnosed as an older adult with "Autism" and have now been thinking what that "-ism" is standing for. What is "Aut"? It may sound silly, of course, but now I am looking for the equivalent to the relationship between "Capital" and "Capital-ism" in "Aut-ism". Thank You for that inspiration.

Well, Wolfgang, Ich war einmals, many moons ago, ein echter Berliner, Ost-Berlin, natürlich...The Master I was referring to was Roshi Deshimaru who left his teaching in Europe, primarily France. Coincidentally, my daughter has developed a practice in treating autism, especially amongst over-vaccinated young children, with some success. As to capitalism, in which I earned my daily bread, I have much to say, but not here. Reading Karl, Engels and Lenin is a good beginning...better late than never.

LOL your "autism" does indeed look like a Belief System or Ideology.

In medical taxonomy, my feeling is that "Autosis", or "Autopathy" may have been a better choice.

But, there you are (Here We Are), the psychiatric taxonomists had already, it seems, lost their respect for the forefathers and the norms.

Thanks!!

Having explored the possibilities of those antagonistic to peace also being behind the divide and conquer scheme regarding neurological variances, I came to the conclusion that any nomer is arbitrary. What goes on with my gray matter and that of millions of other humans, is simply a variance of vibrational frequency - so to speak. Especially in the light of a social life that considers those marked with "Autism" as "being different" in a 'odd' way, it would be best to not use this terminology. However, specifically in the professional work environment, such variance will inevitable lead to issues that are not related to performance - but to the inability to cope with e.g. moronity and intrigues by those who deem themselves superior to anybody else.

Naturally, I would love to have people discover what this neurological variance entails in me - via personal exposure. No "-ism" would be needed to describe what this variance creates, mentally, spiritually and physically. The anitdote for Psychopathy is living, human community and I hope I will be able to meet those on the bright side of life - like those, here. :)

Each is an exercise in crystalizing and then imposing onto the world one's own perceptions of reality, rather than perpetually allowing the inverse.

As indeed should be "Christianism"

Has anyone spotted the sleight of hand in giving that belief-system the "-ity" suffix, in nearly all cases reserved for measurable physical properties. Try "-ity" for yourself.

We don't apply "-ity" to ANY other religious or political concepts.

Such a great conclusion. Now think about "Calamity" and change it to our present state of human affairs: "Calamism". Or "Calamitism". The continued and willful creation of calamity.

I suppose it's to convey solidity, like a rock. Not a mere human belief system, but a supposed mountain of "truth" which was once (and still is) ironically and nevertheless called "faith", i.e. belief. So, to which I'll add, impenetrability, and insanity.

I like two of your last three words there. Resonant!

"Christianism" it is, then.

Grateful Thanks.

Respect and thanks, but all those you mention except Christainity are in truth measurable qualities. You can have a bit of Liberty, Puberty is a process from 0 to 1, Reality is always fractional (ask the meditative masters!).

I assent to Trinity because I don't know what it means or, rather, it has no place in my personal collection of ideologies.

But here's a thought!:

I was lying. My trinity is: the three qualities of Mentality, Sentimentality, Spirituality, in that order, and if some of the sayings of the meditative masters are correct then most souls do not confront this during their lifetime and some even of those in the after-lifetime.

Mentality is required for the basic maintenance of life. Sentimentality for the correct operation of the human group (our moods modified by others). And Spirituality, connection with the other world(s), parallel worlds, spirits, fairies, all that stuff, does not work where the other two remain undeveloped. The fake religion of Individualism keeps us stuck in Mentality and the group power of human advance, remember, humans exist only by and from co-operation, the power of advancement of the community: the group power of human advance works only when Sentimentality is measured as non-zero. Consequentially, without the power of the group mind working like that, we are victims of the verbal manipulation (Mentality) of those to whom we defer The Budget.

Whether that may make sense now or later I leave to Due Consideration, which takes time, always.

Many thanks for your impulse!

Your remark looks to me like a sort of decoy! LOL -- can you be a partial Christian? Believe that JC did resurrect but was not crucified? Accept the miracle of loaves but not fishes? and so on.

Christianity/ism comprises a dogma, a doctrine, a narrative, some antecedents and some prophecy, together with mythic and legendary extrapolations. All of this is accepted by a Christian. Even some of the implications of Bread and Wine, enough that, written into English Law after the Reformation of Henry VIII is that a Catholic accepts those implications whereas an Anglican does not, such that the Test Act was passed to ensure that the Catholic Church could never again sanction the English Monarch.

This makes the Anglican Christian a partial Christian in the eyes of the mother church? or vice versa?

Christianity is not in the same taxonomic class as Opacity, Gravity, Viscosity, and so on, it is NOT a measurable item.

...

These are all items that fall into my bag of Mentality because they are measurable, countable, comparable, and so on. Isms fall into the bag of Sentimentality because they refer to Social effects or (dis)agreements and the like. We can talk about Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, Shamanism, "Satanism", Anglicanism, Catholicism, Communism, Capitalism, so why on earth not Christianism?

I hope that makes enough sense to clarify your sideways glance! Kind Regards.

I’ve long concluded that any -ism in its purest form requires its adherents to kill everyone who doesn’t agree with them.

"kill them all...God will recognize his own!" The Pope's Innocent III ( I'm not making this name up!) legate Arnaud Amaury's judgement when the Albigeois city of Beziers, which also contained many Catholics, surrendered after a long siege. A tabula rasa doctrine since adopted by most "Christian" countries, and one Jewish country... shit happens, we'll sort it out later...

Perhaps an exception is "capitalism." It wouldn't make sense to kill lots of workers and consumers unless by "adherents" you include participants in a hated system. There are enough of them that killing them would drive up wages and drive down prices. Even the homeless who think they are rejecting the system do buy stuff. True, killing them would reduce certain social costs, like mental health services, drug rehab, and social security disability costs, but I suspect it wouldn't pencil out in the end.

"As I have written about before: 'There are not too many humans on planet Earth. There are too any billionaires.' "

I've never seen any proper rationale why billionaires are permitted (either ethically or by law). One cannot (healthily) "consume" a billion dollars/pounds. The only purpose for having billions is to control large numbers of people, and big places of all kinds.

(The same goes for inheritors of large sums, the monetary equivalent of lords and monarchs. Inheritance is in diametrical opposition to the moral claims of most capitalists regarding rewards for work.)

That is a resounding "Bingo!"

Our money is best described as measurement backed by murder. We are ruled by the most ruthless gangsters supported by hairless monkeys in lab coats to poison us and gun carrying goons for enforcement. They all work for the unspoken capo di tutti capi who profits from our willingly bought/sold and tortured souls.

May God have mercy on the innocent children and people of our nations.

"We have allowed money to take possession of our future"

And with that oversight, dereliction of sense, negligence, or weakness, we sowed the seeds of our own downfall.

Surely the institution of money as an 'expression of central bank liability' guaranteed this outcome.

Therefore money is not the root of all evil, it is the very seed from which evil in the world has grown, creeping and grabbing and finally garrotting freedom and life itself like a diabolical strangler fig.

Well of course. They have told you since the beginning what their messianic End Times vision was. The Book of Revelations is the original "burn it all down that we may Build Back Better" roadmap, as envisioned by slave-raiders enamored of human sacrifice (and ancestral cannibalism.) They are trying to recreate the environmental conditions that formed their broken branch: a devastated wasteland post-catastrophe.

(As would ants or birds, using what we call "instinct"- genetic memory.)

I too dreamed for twenty years of what I called the Warrens; vast stretches of toxic city ruins. We are hearing memories of the future they are impelled to create. We are infected by their contagion within that drives them, by their vulnerability to it. We are only resistant, by no means immune. Starmer, by the way, is not ethnically British.
