Couldn't have said it better myself. They are so delusional, I still can't figure out how they manage to own the narrative (for now). I think there is a race on to ensure that "AI" will have us sorted into smaller and smaller data packets such that we will no longer have online 'reach'. Our ability to connect and be enlightened must be their biggest threat right now...gotta put the brakes on that PRONTO.

Perhaps, although I suspect this will fail. I think the opportunity to really clamp down on the internet has passed. I am working on a piece about this.

They can cause damage, but I think credibility is a big factor. Many are just turning away from Establishment media.

If they ruin the net you will have to find a wisdom tradition community to sustain you. I have decided for Christ but I think that's less important than to have some ancient solid grounding to resist the endless fluidity of post modernism.

I think exhaustion with it will assist in this. People are worn out dealing with accusations of misogyny, racism, transphobia etc. Most want to be left in peace.

That's for sure. I find my days exhausting somehow even though the only real work I do is trying to walk a mile every day with my dog.

Remember, the goal of a psyops is always demoralization of the enemy, not winning the war. You want to persuade him it is futile so he will put his rifle down voluntarily. Part of that is exhaustion.

That is why ridicule of these ideas feels refreshing. It frees us for a moment from the psyops campaign. It gives respite.

I used to love the TV series Logan's Run. They had their utopia in the domed city, and it was all good until it was your turn to die. Life outside the dome was harsh, dangerous, and free. But the enforcers from the city would still chase you down, trying to stamp out the very idea of freedom. I do not see much awakening going on within the masses, although I'm continually hopeful of it. The freedom decisions are really down to just the small minority of us who can still think, and are willing to act.

I think it is always a mistake to think the masses will wake up. They will conform to the prevailing narrative. Most today imagine they were always in favour of gay marriage, to pick one example. But if you had asked them ten years ago they would have been indifferent or even hostile. Poor longterm memory is a feature.

It will be the same if the narrative on the WEF agenda changes. I was always against insect burgers and recycled pod habitats.

The trick is to focus on the 20-30 percent who are not buying it.

The Imagineers who dream of 15-minute cities are far removed from reality. Where I live, in east Tennessee, we have low-income housing that is absolutely beautiful. The (primarily Mexican) people who live in these homes take pride in themselves and their homes. There is never a screen door ripped off or a couch on the front porch. I would love to tell the first liberal dreamer what his fantasy-neighborhood would look like within six months in Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Baltimore, St. Louis, or New Orleans.

If we are lucky, and if all law-abiding Americans are armed, we may enjoy a society like that pictured in BLADE RUNNER. But, since we're not lucky, we'll get DARK CITY.

I think it is all fantasy. But they have a lot of leisure time to think these things up, and the media types love it. So it gets amplified.

The city in Bladerunner looked dark to me

Who likes a neighborhood without a few couch-equipped porches?

Nicely written. My long essay on Sunday will be in a sense a compliment to this is going to be how to buy a cheap survival shack (at least if you are in the U.S.)

You were so right when you suggested last night that I might enjoy looking at your article. I much prefer staring into the abyss head on and what you have described so wonderfully matches pretty much of what I believe but I guess you had already worked that out for yourself. I cannot though see them building the kind of cities you describe at this point, I'm pretty certain a lot of the population of the UK would have to be taken out first but I wonder.......

I think initially they would be grouping us all closer together first, hence the building that's going on. So much easier to dispose of masses of people when they're all closer together, so much easier to explain to their future willing slaves.

And here's a thought that my mind often turns to. Why the need for the six super prisons already being built? Two completed and the third nearly done, all with their own crematorium next door. Some holding 1,500, some 2000. Welcome to your new home single people, eat with family and friends in a community eating hall. Boy I bet you could write a great article on those if you haven't already done so.

I will be back later on today or could be tomorrow morning to re-read and I have no doubt you will have gained another supporter.

Thank you for your kind comments. I am not familiar with the prisons. But I do think their plans for 15-minute cities are doomed.

That said, the people driving this will do a lot of damage to us. The initiatives they are planning just in the name of climate change alone will bankrupt most.

Glad you enjoyed.

Answering this quickly as it's one of those days. I totally agree about the damage that will be done but in my immediate area I'm surrounded by people who believe all the BBC and government says, who sadly took their fifth convid jab and will think those cities are a good idea. So convenient, government looking after us type people. Completely brainwashed.

I do not own a television or read mainstream media, anything the government says I reverse and I'm right at least 98% of the time. You really should look up the super prisons, that's the government name for them by the way.

Have to go now and as my mobile phone never goes out of my home, I won't be looking at email until later.

You sound like you have your act together. I too don't own a TV. Although I do take my phone with me places. Do you never take it anywhere?

Last time it left my home was in 2018 when I was in hospital for a month. It's the only trip it ever had out. 😄

I even let my computer go so I didn't need a router or whatever it's called, I just use said phone as a hotspot.

Keep them guessing as much as you can is how I see it. I mean I know they can still monitor me when I'm on my tablet but when it's off it's off. And I switch my phone off every night and leave it getting bored by itself in the kitchen out the way. Off doesn't mean off with those things.

The big walking robot thing? It does look like a lot of fun. Maybe being a fascist stormtrooper hunting down "runners" in the future could be a good career move.

Sounds appealing. I've been kind of 'quiet quitting' my job as an air traffic controller anyway. I just zone out after lunch.
