In my opinion, republishing parts of this, the action parts, may well be the single most effective thing to do.
We do have some power, but it’s hopelessly ineffectual if we don’t adopt the actions that are easily done or doable with minimal adaptations which we control for ourselves.
John as an MD what about showing people evidence from the world's only official COVID inquiries to reveal the truth to the lockdown? Surely that is worthy of a blog post too?
Yes, I covered all of that perfidy in real-time as we all went through it.
I was an early treating physician with HCQ, then ivermectin protocols, with good outpatient treatment results. I gave away to patients and coworkers in 2020, a total of 40,000 doses of 5000 IU vitamin D3 for immune system support.
I accepted firing in October 2021, after 18 cumulative years, for "vaccine refusal", on the principle of standing with the sub-human class, "unvaccinated", which was being created.
See my 9 year old blog for all posts (except 2 removed by Google) www.johndayblog.com
And see my substack, started after Google took down my blog and email, just before the start of the Russian SMO https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/
I had steadfastly maintained from August 2021 that I would not accept the vaccine, on the principle of "standing naked with the Jews", as an underclass of sub-humans was created.
In August 2021 I was given the maximum merit pay raise, but in September, still resisting entreaties to comply, we agreed to the circumstances of my firing, as of November 1, for non-compliance with vaccination requirement.
In mid October Texas Governor Abbott declared that employees could not be fired for vaccine refusal, which made our arrangement awkward.
Within 1 week I was given a letter explaining how bad I had recently been, and I was ambush-fired while planting the fall-winter vegetables in the garden I put in and maintained at my time and expense for my coworkers.
I agree 100% with your statement Mike "In my opinion, republishing parts of this, the action parts, may well be the single most effective thing to do" and I was just thinking how do we get this post published by the likes of The Conservative Woman or reported by say UK Column? I am sending this post to thewhiterose.uk which I hope is ok to do Esc?
I think part of the solution comes by being a 'demonstration site'. You opt out of their consumerism/wage slave model and you have more time than the average dude who notices what you're doing and how you're living and they mimic.(as much as they can handle)
Thanks for this ESC, the totality of your writings on the interrelated parts is starting to crystallize (for me). Much of what you prescribe in the actions to take now are based on having already set up a strong and resilient community. It think it would work immediately and seamlessly in that context. I suspect that many of us do not have such access - I personally have the digital community of Solari (which I highly recommend to all), but nothing like that at the local/physical level. Joining or creating some kind of intentional community would be another way of getting to this point, but there are many inherent barriers to this approach as well (and most intentional communities fail, which isn't very encouraging).
A couple of additions I will suggest. I do agree that if people wake up and take these actions with enough numbers, that their systems will collapse under their own weight. However, how to know that this will happen (their "spells" have proven exceptionally resilient in my own experience). To this end, I have a feeling that a most critical part in the overall strategy to deconstruct their house of cards is to effectively and efficiently wake people up en mass (to as to get the critical point where their systems do collapse). Without this, you cannot ignore the real possibility that these sleeping zombies won't become the next army turned against all of us digital slavery dodgers as they effectively "just follow orders" to do the right thing - coupled with paid mercenaries who will also just do it for the money, and an increasing drone army that may be able to do this without either the sleeping zombie or mercenary types. I would submit turning their own technology products against them might help facilitate this mass turning that is urgently needed.
Exactly what does that mean is left open for debate. There is the case of Cambridge Analytica allegedly identifying on-the-fence voters (on Facebook) in 2016 and bombarding them with anti-Hillary messages to tip the scales in these battleground counties in the rust belt. Whether this all happened exactly as it is portrayed in this Netflix documentary (The Great Hack) is highly suspect, but the overall tactic should be noted and its framework examined for use in our great cause here. I'm sure there are many other such examples to examine - some (most?) crossing the lines of ethics (e.g., questionable "ends justifying the means" approaches) where longer term consequences need serious consideration.
Finally, I'd also like to add a nuance to some of your examples provided. In some of these cases, our overlords that shouldn't be do not themselves create systems de novo and deploy them against us (they simply are not intelligent enough to have this capacity in them, which, incidentally is why they are in such a mad rush put together as much AI as they can). Rather, they corrupt systems created by others with subtle changes in order for them to be weaponized against us. I'll use the ecological movement as the example here. In my opinion, the true meaning of ecology includes humanity and all of our endeavors, whereas there are those who imagine a world free of human existence and then call this "true ecology". There is no logical reason to exclude humanity from ecology, and this is the corruption in that case. Furthermore, participating in an ecological system (which, by the way, is an ever evolving set of processes - "you never step in the same river twice" might well describe that point) involves taking a meaningful harvest from it, while at the same time contributing its overall sustaining (entropy reducing) framework. Permaculture is the field that aligns well with this perspective, and I'd advocate anyone in this movement to pay it some serious attention. It is a set of technologies that greatly improves self reliance AND community building. Bottom line, one of the tenets of Permaculture is that "everything gardens", which means that our human creations are no different from a birds nest.
We can manage our human creations with a longer term perspective that takes the overall productivity of the ecosystem into account (using something like the 7 generations beyond test), and see that we have been incredibly short-sited (again, by the "genius's" at the helm driving this ship). Using the entropy metric is one good approach, as for example, conventional farming is incredibly inefficient, degenerative, and ultimately leads to the loss of an incredible topsoil resource that have spelled the doom of many grand societies in the past. Hopefully we don't have to live through another one of these as the likes of Bill Gates and his minions would have us continue to strip mine our natural assets to produce GMO soy, that is then fed into his fake-meat industry, but only until fails spectacularly (GMO soy is not long for this world if current practices proceed to turn these farms into deserts). Bottom line, let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater in this case, and look for others where viable tools/frameworks with integrity have been corrupted and turned against us - we simply need to see rediscover their true purpose and even contribute to making them even better over time (guarding against the ever presence of this corrupting force that will seek to subvert it).
This is superb. You’ve done a better job here than anyone else I’ve seen at drafting out - in a fairly comprehensive and also quite terse manner - a multi-dimensional power map of the battlefield on which we find ourselves, along with excellent advice on how to navigate it. Tip o’ the hat. I’m subscribing right now. I’d also love to chat sometime if you’re down for that sorta thing.
This is a good summary.,, Very helpful.. So, I've done most of these things for decades now ., this stuff is what we did when I was a child. The world has moved on somewhat now. tho . I dont see our optimal role as simply 'resisting' .. we do have *enormous environmental problems, social justice problems , food production and distribution problems .. pollution problems .. There is no community I know of that can just cut itself off and manage its own little patch (and I know the folks who are doing this stuff) .. you will still have to deal directly with the issues of crop failure, food storage problems , millions of migrants turning up who dont entirely approve of your lifestyle .. wars .. others requisitioning your 'stuff' cos of historical debts. You cant just cut off from the world . We do have to work out how to coordinate solutions to many problems .. if you got shot by an 'incomer' or savaged by a dog you wont simply go to your local reiki healer .. you will still need the global infrastructure that provides standardised medicines and surgical equipment.
People have been juggling local resources and global systems for centuries . It's ongoing. If you look around you will find the folks who've been doing this for decades ,you can just join in, like we did. Help archive their information maybe. When that Gab social media started up I suggested they go help the Amish groups to defend themselves from the computer world they don't understand.. there's a lot of room for such cross pollination. apparently plenty of young Amish have smart phones already anyhow.
My personal solution was to try to do better than these global agendas .. do what has to be done but do it 'right' . . If you want to refuse to do your recycling then prepare to drown in trash.. bearing in mind the 2/3rds world is now refusing to have western trash dumped on it so there will be a lot more of it. We cant escape much of this global trouble but we can temper the excesses of the system they had planned. The 'intermediate technology' movement was a good role model I think .
My answer personally is to try to do better than their agenda was attempting to... and if they have to resort to covert harming then they lost my vote and I will decline to support those bits of their schemes.
One vital thing is we need to support the older folks who dont want to be part of this stuff but who dont know how to defend their right to refuse. I cant manage to get many to address this. Young compliant folk could rally to help the older folk who dont want to go along, but I cant get much of this off the ground sadly.. People seem too busy or distracted to work together. The young are fighting for themselves and dont want to help the older folk. In my experience most people are stressed and exhausted as it is tho.
yes, we totally need to support the colossally corrupt system in order to solve the alleged problems which the system tells us we have.
environmentalism is a crock of sh-, where the 'science' continuously chased the policy. i've documented this in great detail. Bolin, standing in front of US Congress in 1976 admitting they knew virtually nothing, yet in 1975 (Belgrade Charter) it was instrumental that UNESCO should brainwash the kids with environmental education, even though they had absolutely no credible 'science' on the topic - incidentally, the same year in which the IIASA wrote the first, pivotal paper on pricing carbon.
it's concentrated horse manure. quack science, the output of models which cannot predict what they claim the can. and Nikita Moiseev knew, already in the 1970s. yet he persisted. hell, just a few months prior to the 1979 world climate conference which established the implicit 'carbon consensus', an IIASA working group admitted they knew absolutely nothing on the oceanic carbon cycle - the single largest component of the carbon cycle by a country mile. it's fraud. complete and utter fraud.
as for social justice??? that's buying into Alfred Zimmern's mechanism as outlined by 'The Third British Empire', detailing the future control mechanism with an economic foundation. quite literally what brought us here, as i detail in the essay above.
besides, i dont argue for isolation - I specifically target the control surfaces, the weak parts of the structure. i've said nothing about discarding antibiotics or surgical kits - i've pinpointed the 'black box' system enabling outright fraud. anyway, if you think any of the 12 actions are isolationist, name which one and explain the harm, preferably with sourcing which doesn't come straight from those institutions themselves
coordination WITHOUT capture is the express point. the present system couldn't be further remote.
gosh .. you seem to be an academically minded person .maybe ? Cant you see the loss of ecology ?? the plastic piling up that they just want to keep burying ?? I've talked to farmers for years who say we are pushing soils to the limits. Go talk to farmers in person or on the regenerative farming forums. Some lovely earnest folks on there . How much have you grown yourself ?? Conversion to organic will produce more in the long term possibly but the conversion takes time .. and we have all seen the loss of wildlife. just in our lifetimes . The pollution and loss of species bit is not a crock of anything . it's a disaster.
We have to address these things in reality .. whether govt is there or not. You will have to organise with your friends to solve those same problems.
Social justice is not an idea on a desk somewhere .. it's billions of people without 'stuff 'who would like to get stuff from the people who have it. Have you not met people without things who would like to take things from those who have them ??? That is a reality of life regardless of anyone's plots or plans..
If you've got stuff you will have to plan to secure that stuff from people who don't have stuff ... regardless of whose plans you align with or reject.
This is sounding like the monty python sketch 'what dd the romans ever do for us' . I'm just saying you have to address all those things... in a better way than the global govt wish to. Isn't that obvious ??
I guess you might be one of those folks who says 'we dont really need whales and wolves.. just a few to look nice ' .. I dont think that is likely to work out at all. Possibly the planet can survive with a denuded ecology, but I'm not convinced of that myself.
Some plans are better than others and I hope the things I've been doing are for the greater good .. its looking like it might all be wiped away tho. One big forest fire when we have no water stored up and it will undo decades of work :(
my central point wrt 'black box' modelling stands. i speak of an illegitimate global agenda, and you pivot to a pretty obvious attempt at emotional manipulation.
it is not going to work.
> Social justice is not an idea on a desk somewhere .. it's billions of people without 'stuff 'who would like to get stuff from the people who have it
again, you're not addressing what i said. I'm dealing with reality, and that reality is that it's a tool of manipulative exploitation easily visible through the United Nations ssystem - yet you again attempt to pivot to emotional manipulation.
IT IS NOT GOING TO WORK.
> This is sounding like the monty python sketch 'what dd the romans ever do for us'
well, if I was the sort who appreciated 'expert consensus' eliminating democracy, global surveillance through satellites, mobile phones, IoT censors etc, all used as input for forward predicting digital twins, in turn outputting data flows used as input for AI-controlled adaptive management of Zev Naveh's Total Human Ecosystem, then I would probably agree.
I've no idea why you're arguing. I'm pointing out something pretty obvious that you still have to deal with all the worldly problems. You will need to organise.
Living on a small island growing most of my food and having local fuel I still had to organise a hell of a lot and interact with the outside world for many things.. I'm certainly not arguing for the black box, I've pointed out that *exact thing for many years ...
The problem is you still have to face up to a lot of real issues which will require coordination.
I dont exactly believe in free freedom ... I think we achieve it by working at things . You build your house and that earns you the freedom to sit in it . That's how life is. Building a parallel system that covers all the bases is difficult... I've quite a lot of experience of that.
the distinction is very simple: coordination is necessary, capture is not. the essay is about refusing capture - not denying coordination.
yes, people still need to organise for food, fuel, medicine, but those things don’t require opaque models, digital IDs, or algorithmic enforcement.
anyway, so which of the 12 is isolationist?
> I'm certainly not arguing for the black box, I've pointed out that *exact thing for many years ...
you made that express claim about 'global ethics' only recently, and then you failed to deliver when i asked you for evidence.
soo... evidence? please link discussions of yours where you debate exactly this, please (black boxes which diffuse responsibility). oh and include links to discussions relating to global ethics in context of their use for control as well.
You talk as tho reality is on on the internet and only in the last few years ... people do meet up and discuss in reality you know .. always have done. I've avoided interweb stuff as much as was possible.. many of us have.
I dont understand your point about ethics. You sort of said they exist and I asked if you thought they were bad and you didnt reply which is why I quit.
Anyway in practise the distinction is far more tricky... between what is and is not captured. I'm glad more people are aware these days of the tradeoffs and dangers.. but it is a real challenge to organise life and we cant downplay that. Life is very very interconnected now... being vigilant to prevent undue capture will have to be an ongoing struggle.
btw one of the main reasons I avoided the internet is because it has such huge potential for 'black box' capture. Everything is parasitised online.. Many of my friends avoided it altogether .
I think the root of disagreement here is in equating the vilification of CO2 (and all of that narrative along with technocratic solutions for control) as "environmentalism". In fact, as plants thrive under higher levels of CO2, many have argued that the release of CO2 actually improves many (all?) ecological systems on this planet. And yes, as someone with a very small amount of experience in atmospheric chemistry/aerosol modeling (did an MS in Chem Eng on the topic many years ago), I was easily convinced of how farcical this montage of averaged climate models used by the IPCCC was (read Koonan's Unsettled book to see all of these details), and this lead me to wake up to the charade.
As I wrote in my comment below, one need not throw the baby out with the bathwater as you discard the "climate change" false narrative - you don't need to abandon the real environmentalism that this effort corrupted and channeled for their technocratic agenda. For example, converting all large farms to local, small scale regenerative agriculture is 100% aligned with the same mission we are all on here, and at the same time removes several elements of control from the technocratic elites' toolbox. Likewise ensuring clean air to breath and water to drink is well aligned here. If you dig further in what exactly ecological systems are (that are far more efficient in converting sun energy into the organization of living structures, against the forces of entropy in our open thermodynamic system on this planet, than anything humans have concocted in a man vs. nature approach) that humans both benefit from AND contribute to, you will see that this is NOT what the powers that shouldn't be have tapped into. I would describe environmentalism as the effort to educate people on the benefits of contributing to ecosystems (while at the same time reaping a harvest) as compared to the reap-only, strip-mining approach. Once you see this, it is impossible to unsee, and one gains an appreciation for the 7-generation look-ahead approach to decision making it is aligned with. I truly want to leave the world a better place for my children than when I got here, but at the rate we are going, it may have to be for their children's grandchildren (still within the 7-generation look ahead...).
This is constructive. We need to work together at human scale.
I ride a bike and grow a couple of large(ish) vegetable gardens, each of which is an ecosystem, which is teaching me about real human-food ecosystems. I would have thought them to be almost identical, but they are not, and every little difference matters and has cascading implications as the seasons progress.
This is quite true, unfortunately. Also, naming them as such (sheeple), the sentiment I fully endorse and align with, is at the same time playing into the hands of those orchestrating the great divide and conquer scheme that affords all of their progress. On a pragmatic level, I see the need to overcome my urge to thus call out said sheeple for who they are, for the simple reason that doing so has proven to be exactly 0% effective in waking up any members of this sleeping army that WILL be (and to some extent already has been) turned against all of us. Because I care more about the outcome (waking them up, and effectively diminishing this army), than I do about my gut reaction to try and put them in their place (however they arrived where they are, they are the in some ways the reason we are in this situation!), I resist this urge and look for a path of least nausea in order to extend an olive branch in this smaller battle, so that we have a fighting chance of winning the larger war that is waged against all of us. Just remember, United We Stand (and divided we fall).
I would love to wake them up, but they are too comfortable and complacent, the real success is when they come back to you and say that they never realized how much they didn’t know and that you were right and they accepted that they were misled by the circus around them
Honestly, I can't tell you how much I would love for this to happen. So far, I'm batting 0 for I don't know how many (anyone actually come back to you in this way yet?). Maybe time will tell, but more likely, for anyone that eventually does come around, they will forget how they had been duped in the first place (thus overcoming the "it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled" hurdle), and approach you with some exciting and urgent news about a technocratic agenda by the oligarchs that shouldn't be to imprison all of humanity (except for themselves) into a digital concentration camp. You can just roll your eyes and say thanks for the tip.
I met a complete stranger a few months ago that mentioned my MAGA hat that I wear occasionally, he said to me, I used to think that people like you were crazy, but now I am never going to vote Democrat again, we talked for a while and he said that he realized that the Democrats are not friends of America and Americans, he was able to see for himself, that is the only way to make them realize the truth
I'll keep saying it because it's the truth. We're going to experience more chaos and set backs if we don't start addressing the following causal factors of humanities decline into slavery.
1: IGNORance of natural law the dynamic of morality directly effects the conditions we collectively experience.
2: IGNORance of how our common law constitution, a timeless, principled framework of natural justice, centered around self governance through jury independence, must be restored through mass education.
A week before the covid circus started, I moved to rural Southeast Europe. Survived the whole saga without a single test, let alone jab, and without anyone tracking and pestering me via phone messages. I am forever grateful for that.
In the surrounding villages, people make their own food. They have stocked up for 20 years to come. Most of their grandparents were shepherds. If WiFi and TV and phone networks and even electricity go out permanently one day, deep down they will be pleased.
Oh, and some of my friends let all their IDs and licenses expire many years ago. The government has no clue whether they're alive or dead. What difference has it made? Other than driving through side alleys to avoid the police, none whatsoever.
So, yes, there are always alternatives. We don't need to let ourselves be warehoused in concrete microwaves and spend every evening on Netflix.
Thank you for this revelatory post. It draws together powerful explanations along with doable responses. This is one battle mankind cannot afford to lose.
Thanks. We have become slaves to convenience. Do you shop on Amazon? Amazon knows more about me than many people 😊. I think about not using Amazon, especially Prime. Prime cost $15 a month. I wonder what would happen if the masses organized and withdrew a $1000 dollars from their bank account on an assigned day or what they can afford to take out.
Thanks for putting this together. Now I’m in the database of liking this post.
dont think i've used amazon in 2025. i dd a number of times over christmas last year, admittedly.
wife pays for amazon prime, and i find it extraordinary that all the amazon prime tv now is thick with adverts considering that was their promotional gimmick for years.
a few years ago amazon recommended me a step-by-step book on how to actually solve police cases. i found it amusing, because it was so far removed from my typical shopping pattern, yet for some reason i had to have it because it sounded really interesting at the time, so it became a running joke that either amazon's AI was super brilliant, or it was super bad.
Surrogate power is where indigenous power extends reach by agreement. That such powers can corrupt or be corrupted is when surrogate power usurps or overrides indigenous power.
Democratic accountability rises from honest intelligence as to the fruits of thought in action relative to the whole of which we are apart. The idea of democratic governance became a manipulation of ruled and filtered intelligence presenting the form of an account - ie a framing of narrative - as an invested 'reality', worldview or identity, derived from definitions that operate as the repackaging of systemic conflicts into virtue-credits as mitigations or dictates for systemic sacrifice. This is a branch of banksterism, in that complex instruments of manipulative deceit are generated for the persistence of systemic control over fear (projection) of pain (conflict) of loss (humiliation and death) as arbiters of guilt-control - named as such because the mind runs under a guilting operating system of coded or masking evasions. (Systemically collectivised by agreements set in false-framed self-interest).
Honest intelligence or innocent perception can report the dysfunctions running beneath the mask of 'control', as well as uncover true function as a wholeness of being that a forced or manipulated partiality cannot see, because it operates as rules and filters that distort and block the 'signal'.
Voting is a crude quantised weighting of lots cast as a result of a process of communication and relationship. It cannot be too overstated that the usurp of intelligence reduces and replaces qualities that hold principles of integrally unifying intelligence with quantitative easements for saving the structure at expense of true function. This contracts to dying or becoming redundant as life supportive, and thus generating a spiral of destructive self-reinforcing 'cling on' to forms of mimicry running in 'stealth mode' as the appeal of guilt as power of attack by which life is restructured as compliance to an alienated bubble of temporary 'security' subject to shifting narratives of contested blame-sacrifice.
True function is lawful by integrality and workability at all levels - or rather as a whole.
A house divided against itself shows its contradictions of thought and deed, but presents such conflicts as at the hand of another - that is endogenous. Cause is thus equated with attack, generating a 'just cause' for countermeasures - that 'a world of treachery demands'. Thus the element of true responsibility for conscious development or growth is extended to surrogate agreements of 'reality' as 'externally' caused - to which an 'internal' masking defence must rise and pre-emptively attack and replace - as its own existential 'survival'.
I sketch on the fly to prompt intuitive recognitions - not to lay claim to 'being right' but of a willingness to be helpful in terms of the reintegration of a split-mind to a recognition of indigenous power as primary and integral to being - regardless the denial or suppression of native qualities of being that are felt rather than 'thinked into existence' as projection of mythic 'creation' as an assemblage or constellation of 'powers' - that always contains some element of evil, guilt or conflict to run 'tares within the wheat'.
Illusion is often used as an accusation by which to confer invalidity.
In the same way a moral 'right' is generated from the claim or assertion of another's 'wrong'. BY such illusion does false power strut a world of Self-attack in vain.
Indeed it offers a 'mind' by which to judge all else as meeting or failing terms and conditions of a masking self-specialness - by which an integral uniqueness is 'repackaged by war' into vested defences that DO the very think they accuse and attack in the Other.
Moral integrity is a living integrality - not a coded and weighted correctness subject to votes. We are our whole lives - not merely the script of a casting and continuity manager. As such we are of a wholeness - not a past set out of true recall stamping itself into a future that never arrives as the unfolding fulfilment of our very being.
World as psyop? Is an ancient idea set in new clothes. What is the deceiver's function?
Or what is the function of deceit in the mind that so chooses to use it?
You can't get out. You can only go in, where unity of consciousness and existence are avaiable by activating your quantum sensors & identity. Be patient, it's not just like flipping a switch. Your brain is in the way, and has to be allowed to shut up.
This is an excellent framework to understand the case for action and the way forward individually, locally and nationally. How should we inform and enroll the awakened and broaden a coordinated effort?
Thank you, ESC!
In my opinion, republishing parts of this, the action parts, may well be the single most effective thing to do.
We do have some power, but it’s hopelessly ineffectual if we don’t adopt the actions that are easily done or doable with minimal adaptations which we control for ourselves.
Nice to see you here, Mike. I will weave this into my next blog post.

They intended for it to be invisible, with me far away, by phone, but I came in on my day off and took the call from the garden.
Everybody saw.
Moral victory for me.

Great post esc. Instant restack
Appreciation and blessings from Sydney Australia.
Thanks for this ESC, the totality of your writings on the interrelated parts is starting to crystallize (for me). Much of what you prescribe in the actions to take now are based on having already set up a strong and resilient community. It think it would work immediately and seamlessly in that context. I suspect that many of us do not have such access - I personally have the digital community of Solari (which I highly recommend to all), but nothing like that at the local/physical level. Joining or creating some kind of intentional community would be another way of getting to this point, but there are many inherent barriers to this approach as well (and most intentional communities fail, which isn't very encouraging).

However, how to know that this will happen (their "spells" have proven exceptionally resilient in my own experience). To this end, I have a feeling that a most critical part in the overall strategy to deconstruct their house of cards is to effectively and efficiently wake people up en mass (to as to get the critical point where their systems do collapse). Without this, you cannot ignore the real possibility that these sleeping zombies won't become the next army turned against all of us digital slavery dodgers as they effectively "just follow orders" to do the right thing - coupled with paid mercenaries who will also just do it for the money, and an increasing drone army that may be able to do this without either the sleeping zombie or mercenary types. I would submit turning their own technology products against them might help facilitate this mass turning that is urgently needed.
Exactly what does that mean is left open for debate. There is the case of Cambridge Analytica allegedly identifying on-the-fence voters (on Facebook) in 2016 and bombarding them with anti-Hillary messages to tip the scales in these battleground counties in the rust belt. Whether this all happened exactly as it is portrayed in this Netflix documentary (The Great Hack) is highly suspect, but the overall tactic should be noted and its framework examined for use in our great cause here. I'm sure there are many other such examples to examine - some (most?) crossing the lines of ethics (e.g., questionable "ends justifying the means" approaches) where longer term consequences need serious consideration.
Finally, I'd also like to add a nuance to some of your examples provided. In some of these cases, our overlords that shouldn't be do not themselves create systems de novo and deploy them against us (they simply are not intelligent enough to have this capacity in them, which, incidentally is why they are in such a mad rush put together as much AI as they can). Rather, they corrupt systems created by others with subtle changes in order for them to be weaponized against us. I'll use the ecological movement as the example here. In my opinion, the true meaning of ecology includes humanity and all of our endeavors, whereas there are those who imagine a world free of human existence and then call this "true ecology". There is no logical reason to exclude humanity from ecology, and this is the corruption in that case. Furthermore, participating in an ecological system (which, by the way, is an ever evolving set of processes - "you never step in the same river twice" might well describe that point) involves taking a meaningful harvest from it, while at the same time contributing its overall sustaining (entropy reducing) framework. Permaculture is the field that aligns well with this perspective, and I'd advocate anyone in this movement to pay it some serious attention. It is a set of technologies that greatly improves self reliance AND community building. Bottom line, one of the tenets of Permaculture is that "everything gardens", which means that our human creations are no different from a birds nest.
We can manage our human creations with a longer term perspective that takes the overall productivity of the ecosystem into account (using something like the 7 generations beyond test), and see that we have been incredibly short-sited (again, by the "genius's" at the helm driving this ship). Using the entropy metric is one good approach, as for example, conventional farming is incredibly inefficient, degenerative, and ultimately leads to the loss of an incredible topsoil resource that have spelled the doom of many grand societies in the past. Hopefully we don't have to live through another one of these as the likes of Bill Gates and his minions would have us continue to strip mine our natural assets to produce GMO soy, that is then fed into his fake-meat industry, but only until fails spectacularly (GMO soy is not long for this world if current practices proceed to turn these farms into deserts). Bottom line, let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater in this case, and look for others where viable tools/frameworks with integrity have been corrupted and turned against us - we simply need to see rediscover their true purpose and even contribute to making them even better over time (guarding against the ever presence of this corrupting force that will seek to subvert it).

This is superb. You’ve done a better job here than anyone else I’ve seen at drafting out - in a fairly comprehensive and also quite terse manner - a multi-dimensional power map of the battlefield on which we find ourselves, along with excellent advice on how to navigate it. Tip o’ the hat. I’m subscribing right now. I’d also love to chat sometime if you’re down for that sorta thing.
Esc has a chat set up on substack...
This is a good summary.,, Very helpful.. So, I've done most of these things for decades now ., this stuff is what we did when I was a child. The world has moved on somewhat now. tho . I dont see our optimal role as simply 'resisting' .. we do have *enormous environmental problems, social justice problems , food production and distribution problems .. pollution problems .. There is no community I know of that can just cut itself off and manage its own little patch (and I know the folks who are doing this stuff) .. you will still have to deal directly with the issues of crop failure, food storage problems , millions of migrants turning up who dont entirely approve of your lifestyle .. wars .. others requisitioning your 'stuff' cos of historical debts. You cant just cut off from the world . We do have to work out how to coordinate solutions to many problems .. if you got shot by an 'incomer' or savaged by a dog you wont simply go to your local reiki healer .. you will still need the global infrastructure that provides standardised medicines and surgical equipment.
People have been juggling local resources and global systems for centuries . It's ongoing. If you look around you will find the folks who've been doing this for decades ,you can just join in, like we did. Help archive their information maybe. When that Gab social media started up I suggested they go help the Amish groups to defend themselves from the computer world they don't understand.. there's a lot of room for such cross pollination. apparently plenty of young Amish have smart phones already anyhow.
My personal solution was to try to do better than these global agendas .. do what has to be done but do it 'right' . . If you want to refuse to do your recycling then prepare to drown in trash.. bearing in mind the 2/3rds world is now refusing to have western trash dumped on it so there will be a lot more of it. We cant escape much of this global trouble but we can temper the excesses of the system they had planned. The 'intermediate technology' movement was a good role model I think .
My answer personally is to try to do better than their agenda was attempting to... and if they have to resort to covert harming then they lost my vote and I will decline to support those bits of their schemes.
One vital thing is we need to support the older folks who dont want to be part of this stuff but who dont know how to defend their right to refuse. I cant manage to get many to address this. Young compliant folk could rally to help the older folk who dont want to go along, but I cant get much of this off the ground sadly.. People seem too busy or distracted to work together. The young are fighting for themselves and dont want to help the older folk. In my experience most people are stressed and exhausted as it is tho.
yes, we totally need to support the colossally corrupt system in order to solve the alleged problems which the system tells us we have.
environmentalism is a crock of sh-, where the 'science' continuously chased the policy. i've documented this in great detail. Bolin, standing in front of US Congress in 1976 admitting they knew virtually nothing, yet in 1975 (Belgrade Charter) it was instrumental that UNESCO should brainwash the kids with environmental education, even though they had absolutely no credible 'science' on the topic - incidentally, the same year in which the IIASA wrote the first, pivotal paper on pricing carbon.
it's concentrated horse manure. quack science, the output of models which cannot predict what they claim the can. and Nikita Moiseev knew, already in the 1970s. yet he persisted. hell, just a few months prior to the 1979 world climate conference which established the implicit 'carbon consensus', an IIASA working group admitted they knew absolutely nothing on the oceanic carbon cycle - the single largest component of the carbon cycle by a country mile. it's fraud. complete and utter fraud.
as for social justice??? that's buying into Alfred Zimmern's mechanism as outlined by 'The Third British Empire', detailing the future control mechanism with an economic foundation. quite literally what brought us here, as i detail in the essay above.
besides, i dont argue for isolation - I specifically target the control surfaces, the weak parts of the structure. i've said nothing about discarding antibiotics or surgical kits - i've pinpointed the 'black box' system enabling outright fraud. anyway, if you think any of the 12 actions are isolationist, name which one and explain the harm, preferably with sourcing which doesn't come straight from those institutions themselves
coordination WITHOUT capture is the express point. the present system couldn't be further remote.
All of these concepts are reality based and worthy, but brand-managed by minions of the neoliberal globalist oligarchs, hence problematic.
;-(
gosh .. you seem to be an academically minded person .maybe ? Cant you see the loss of ecology ?? the plastic piling up that they just want to keep burying ?? I've talked to farmers for years who say we are pushing soils to the limits. Go talk to farmers in person or on the regenerative farming forums. Some lovely earnest folks on there . How much have you grown yourself ?? Conversion to organic will produce more in the long term possibly but the conversion takes time .. and we have all seen the loss of wildlife. just in our lifetimes . The pollution and loss of species bit is not a crock of anything . it's a disaster.
We have to address these things in reality .. whether govt is there or not. You will have to organise with your friends to solve those same problems.
Social justice is not an idea on a desk somewhere .. it's billions of people without 'stuff 'who would like to get stuff from the people who have it. Have you not met people without things who would like to take things from those who have them ??? That is a reality of life regardless of anyone's plots or plans..
If you've got stuff you will have to plan to secure that stuff from people who don't have stuff ... regardless of whose plans you align with or reject.
This is sounding like the monty python sketch 'what dd the romans ever do for us' . I'm just saying you have to address all those things... in a better way than the global govt wish to. Isn't that obvious ??
I guess you might be one of those folks who says 'we dont really need whales and wolves.. just a few to look nice ' .. I dont think that is likely to work out at all. Possibly the planet can survive with a denuded ecology, but I'm not convinced of that myself.
Some plans are better than others and I hope the things I've been doing are for the greater good .. its looking like it might all be wiped away tho. One big forest fire when we have no water stored up and it will undo decades of work :(
my central point wrt 'black box' modelling stands. i speak of an illegitimate global agenda, and you pivot to a pretty obvious attempt at emotional manipulation.
it is not going to work.
> Social justice is not an idea on a desk somewhere .. it's billions of people without 'stuff 'who would like to get stuff from the people who have it
again, you're not addressing what i said. I'm dealing with reality, and that reality is that it's a tool of manipulative exploitation easily visible through the United Nations ssystem - yet you again attempt to pivot to emotional manipulation.
IT IS NOT GOING TO WORK.
> This is sounding like the monty python sketch 'what dd the romans ever do for us'
well, if I was the sort who appreciated 'expert consensus' eliminating democracy, global surveillance through satellites, mobile phones, IoT censors etc, all used as input for forward predicting digital twins, in turn outputting data flows used as input for AI-controlled adaptive management of Zev Naveh's Total Human Ecosystem, then I would probably agree.
but I kind of like freedom, so I don't.
I've no idea why you're arguing. I'm pointing out something pretty obvious that you still have to deal with all the worldly problems. You will need to organise.
Living on a small island growing most of my food and having local fuel I still had to organise a hell of a lot and interact with the outside world for many things.. I'm certainly not arguing for the black box, I've pointed out that *exact thing for many years ...
The problem is you still have to face up to a lot of real issues which will require coordination.
I dont exactly believe in free freedom ... I think we achieve it by working at things . You build your house and that earns you the freedom to sit in it . That's how life is. Building a parallel system that covers all the bases is difficult... I've quite a lot of experience of that.
the distinction is very simple: coordination is necessary, capture is not. the essay is about refusing capture - not denying coordination.
yes, people still need to organise for food, fuel, medicine, but those things don’t require opaque models, digital IDs, or algorithmic enforcement.
anyway, so which of the 12 is isolationist?
> I'm certainly not arguing for the black box, I've pointed out that *exact thing for many years ...
you made that express claim about 'global ethics' only recently, and then you failed to deliver when i asked you for evidence.
soo... evidence? please link discussions of yours where you debate exactly this, please (black boxes which diffuse responsibility). oh and include links to discussions relating to global ethics in context of their use for control as well.
thanks.
You talk as tho reality is on on the internet and only in the last few years ... people do meet up and discuss in reality you know .. always have done. I've avoided interweb stuff as much as was possible.. many of us have.
I dont understand your point about ethics. You sort of said they exist and I asked if you thought they were bad and you didnt reply which is why I quit.
Anyway in practise the distinction is far more tricky... between what is and is not captured. I'm glad more people are aware these days of the tradeoffs and dangers.. but it is a real challenge to organise life and we cant downplay that. Life is very very interconnected now... being vigilant to prevent undue capture will have to be an ongoing struggle.
btw one of the main reasons I avoided the internet is because it has such huge potential for 'black box' capture. Everything is parasitised online.. Many of my friends avoided it altogether .
Armies and bandits don't dig the potatoes out of the ground, but do steal the wheat and beans.
Boooom. Mic drop
I think the root of disagreement here is in equating the vilification of CO2 (and all of that narrative along with technocratic solutions for control) as "environmentalism". In fact, as plants thrive under higher levels of CO2, many have argued that the release of CO2 actually improves many (all?) ecological systems on this planet. And yes, as someone with a very small amount of experience in atmospheric chemistry/aerosol modeling (did an MS in Chem Eng on the topic many years ago), I was easily convinced of how farcical this montage of averaged climate models used by the IPCCC was (read Koonan's Unsettled book to see all of these details), and this lead me to wake up to the charade.
As I wrote in my comment below, one need not throw the baby out with the bathwater as you discard the "climate change" false narrative - you don't need to abandon the real environmentalism that this effort corrupted and channeled for their technocratic agenda. For example, converting all large farms to local, small scale regenerative agriculture is 100% aligned with the same mission we are all on here, and at the same time removes several elements of control from the technocratic elites' toolbox. Likewise ensuring clean air to breath and water to drink is well aligned here. If you dig further in what exactly ecological systems are (that are far more efficient in converting sun energy into the organization of living structures, against the forces of entropy in our open thermodynamic system on this planet, than anything humans have concocted in a man vs. nature approach) that humans both benefit from AND contribute to, you will see that this is NOT what the powers that shouldn't be have tapped into. I would describe environmentalism as the effort to educate people on the benefits of contributing to ecosystems (while at the same time reaping a harvest) as compared to the reap-only, strip-mining approach. Once you see this, it is impossible to unsee, and one gains an appreciation for the 7-generation look-ahead approach to decision making it is aligned with. I truly want to leave the world a better place for my children than when I got here, but at the rate we are going, it may have to be for their children's grandchildren (still within the 7-generation look ahead...).
This is constructive. We need to work together at human scale.
I ride a bike and grow a couple of large(ish) vegetable gardens, each of which is an ecosystem, which is teaching me about real human-food ecosystems. I would have thought them to be almost identical, but they are not, and every little difference matters and has cascading implications as the seasons progress.

The sheeple are happy with bread and a circus, and easily sedated with lies, just look around you
This is quite true, unfortunately. Also, naming them as such (sheeple), the sentiment I fully endorse and align with, is at the same time playing into the hands of those orchestrating the great divide and conquer scheme that affords all of their progress. On a pragmatic level, I see the need to overcome my urge to thus call out said sheeple for who they are, for the simple reason that doing so has proven to be exactly 0% effective in waking up any members of this sleeping army that WILL be (and to some extent already has been) turned against all of us. Because I care more about the outcome (waking them up, and effectively diminishing this army), than I do about my gut reaction to try and put them in their place (however they arrived where they are, they are the in some ways the reason we are in this situation!), I resist this urge and look for a path of least nausea in order to extend an olive branch in this smaller battle, so that we have a fighting chance of winning the larger war that is waged against all of us. Just remember, United We Stand (and divided we fall).
I would love to wake them up, but they are too comfortable and complacent, the real success is when they come back to you and say that they never realized how much they didn’t know and that you were right and they accepted that they were misled by the circus around them
Honestly, I can't tell you how much I would love for this to happen. So far, I'm batting 0 for I don't know how many (anyone actually come back to you in this way yet?). Maybe time will tell, but more likely, for anyone that eventually does come around, they will forget how they had been duped in the first place (thus overcoming the "it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled" hurdle), and approach you with some exciting and urgent news about a technocratic agenda by the oligarchs that shouldn't be to imprison all of humanity (except for themselves) into a digital concentration camp. You can just roll your eyes and say thanks for the tip.
I met a complete stranger a few months ago that mentioned my MAGA hat that I wear occasionally, he said to me, I used to think that people like you were crazy, but now I am never going to vote Democrat again, we talked for a while and he said that he realized that the Democrats are not friends of America and Americans, he was able to see for himself, that is the only way to make them realize the truth
That's great to hear Mike.
I'll keep saying it because it's the truth. We're going to experience more chaos and set backs if we don't start addressing the following causal factors of humanities decline into slavery.
1: IGNORance of natural law the dynamic of morality directly effects the conditions we collectively experience.
2: IGNORance of how our common law constitution, a timeless, principled framework of natural justice, centered around self governance through jury independence, must be restored through mass education.

A week before the covid circus started, I moved to rural Southeast Europe. Survived the whole saga without a single test, let alone jab, and without anyone tracking and pestering me via phone messages. I am forever grateful for that.
In the surrounding villages, people make their own food. They have stocked up for 20 years to come. Most of their grandparents were shepherds. If WiFi and TV and phone networks and even electricity go out permanently one day, deep down they will be pleased.
Oh, and some of my friends let all their IDs and licenses expire many years ago. The government has no clue whether they're alive or dead. What difference has it made? Other than driving through side alleys to avoid the police, none whatsoever.
So, yes, there are always alternatives. We don't need to let ourselves be warehoused in concrete microwaves and spend every evening on Netflix.
Thank you for this revelatory post. It draws together powerful explanations along with doable responses. This is one battle mankind cannot afford to lose.
Thanks. We have become slaves to convenience. Do you shop on Amazon? Amazon knows more about me than many people 😊. I think about not using Amazon, especially Prime. Prime cost $15 a month. I wonder what would happen if the masses organized and withdrew a $1000 dollars from their bank account on an assigned day or what they can afford to take out.
Thanks for putting this together. Now I’m in the database of liking this post.
dont think i've used amazon in 2025. i dd a number of times over christmas last year, admittedly.
wife pays for amazon prime, and i find it extraordinary that all the amazon prime tv now is thick with adverts considering that was their promotional gimmick for years.
a few years ago amazon recommended me a step-by-step book on how to actually solve police cases. i found it amusing, because it was so far removed from my typical shopping pattern, yet for some reason i had to have it because it sounded really interesting at the time, so it became a running joke that either amazon's AI was super brilliant, or it was super bad.
Welcome to the watchlist Buddy

Democracy might be the biggest psyop thrown at mankind in modern history. Voting is the biggest illusion : https://open.substack.com/pub/iaindavis/p/what-is-democracy?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=2ii9jn . I knew this already basically, but this one was written in a very clear way.
Surrogate power is where indigenous power extends reach by agreement. That such powers can corrupt or be corrupted is when surrogate power usurps or overrides indigenous power.
Democratic accountability rises from honest intelligence as to the fruits of thought in action relative to the whole of which we are apart. The idea of democratic governance became a manipulation of ruled and filtered intelligence presenting the form of an account - ie a framing of narrative - as an invested 'reality', worldview or identity, derived from definitions that operate as the repackaging of systemic conflicts into virtue-credits as mitigations or dictates for systemic sacrifice. This is a branch of banksterism, in that complex instruments of manipulative deceit are generated for the persistence of systemic control over fear (projection) of pain (conflict) of loss (humiliation and death) as arbiters of guilt-control - named as such because the mind runs under a guilting operating system of coded or masking evasions. (Systemically collectivised by agreements set in false-framed self-interest).
Honest intelligence or innocent perception can report the dysfunctions running beneath the mask of 'control', as well as uncover true function as a wholeness of being that a forced or manipulated partiality cannot see, because it operates as rules and filters that distort and block the 'signal'.
Voting is a crude quantised weighting of lots cast as a result of a process of communication and relationship. It cannot be too overstated that the usurp of intelligence reduces and replaces qualities that hold principles of integrally unifying intelligence with quantitative easements for saving the structure at expense of true function. This contracts to dying or becoming redundant as life supportive, and thus generating a spiral of destructive self-reinforcing 'cling on' to forms of mimicry running in 'stealth mode' as the appeal of guilt as power of attack by which life is restructured as compliance to an alienated bubble of temporary 'security' subject to shifting narratives of contested blame-sacrifice.
True function is lawful by integrality and workability at all levels - or rather as a whole.
A house divided against itself shows its contradictions of thought and deed, but presents such conflicts as at the hand of another - that is endogenous. Cause is thus equated with attack, generating a 'just cause' for countermeasures - that 'a world of treachery demands'. Thus the element of true responsibility for conscious development or growth is extended to surrogate agreements of 'reality' as 'externally' caused - to which an 'internal' masking defence must rise and pre-emptively attack and replace - as its own existential 'survival'.
I sketch on the fly to prompt intuitive recognitions - not to lay claim to 'being right' but of a willingness to be helpful in terms of the reintegration of a split-mind to a recognition of indigenous power as primary and integral to being - regardless the denial or suppression of native qualities of being that are felt rather than 'thinked into existence' as projection of mythic 'creation' as an assemblage or constellation of 'powers' - that always contains some element of evil, guilt or conflict to run 'tares within the wheat'.
Illusion is often used as an accusation by which to confer invalidity.
In the same way a moral 'right' is generated from the claim or assertion of another's 'wrong'. BY such illusion does false power strut a world of Self-attack in vain.
Indeed it offers a 'mind' by which to judge all else as meeting or failing terms and conditions of a masking self-specialness - by which an integral uniqueness is 'repackaged by war' into vested defences that DO the very think they accuse and attack in the Other.
Moral integrity is a living integrality - not a coded and weighted correctness subject to votes. We are our whole lives - not merely the script of a casting and continuity manager. As such we are of a wholeness - not a past set out of true recall stamping itself into a future that never arrives as the unfolding fulfilment of our very being.
World as psyop? Is an ancient idea set in new clothes. What is the deceiver's function?
Or what is the function of deceit in the mind that so chooses to use it?
God Bless You & Your Efforts! 🙏
You can't get out. You can only go in, where unity of consciousness and existence are avaiable by activating your quantum sensors & identity. Be patient, it's not just like flipping a switch. Your brain is in the way, and has to be allowed to shut up.
Part of non digital resilience would be to print this excellent article. Is that possible?
Print away, or even store it through saving to PDF. You can typically do that through Ctrl-P and then choosing to save to pdf
That worked thanks.
Aaah, I’m on a phone. I’ll try from my PC. Thank you. Outstanding work.
This is an excellent framework to understand the case for action and the way forward individually, locally and nationally. How should we inform and enroll the awakened and broaden a coordinated effort?
