primary organizations behind it are the UN, the WEF, the World Bank, and the ID 2020. Let me take you through it. </p><p>So the first main culprit, who seemingly started this is the United Nations. We all know about the UN and their deceptive, <em>sustainable development goals</em>. In 16.9, they state by 2030, that they want to provide <strong>legal identity for all&#8212;</strong>including birth registration. These UN agencies want to frame digital ID as <em>necessary to participate in the digital economy and to access services</em>. </p><p>This is how they&#8217;re gonna lock you in&#8212;and this is how they spin it.</p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;cadfdca3-808e-4196-b4f5-57b6f7bc542b&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p>Now the UN is working closely with the World Bank. The World Bank has a program called Identification for Development or ID4D. This promotes biometric digital ID systems for low and middle income countries. Sounds so humanitarian of them, doesn&#8217;t it? Well, if you&#8217;ve caught on, you see how they&#8217;re always gonna start with the more impoverished, less informed and less able to resist populations, because it&#8217;s simply easier to get them to comply and to roll it out. From there, they&#8217;ll gradually work their way up to the first world countries. </p><p>The top donors of this program, are the usual suspects&#8212;the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the UK government, the French government, Norway and the <strong><span>Omidyar Network,</span></strong><span> a philanthropic investment firm founded in </span><strong><span>2004</span></strong><span> by </span><strong><span>Pierre Omidyar</span></strong><span> (eBay founder) and his wife </span><strong><span>Pam</span></strong><span>.</span> They call it a &#8220;philanthropy&#8221;, but they have a goal to hardwire humanity toward a digital future. That sounds lovely, doesn&#8217;t it? </p><p>ID4D has a partnership with the United Nations, the WEF, the Euro Commission and the GSMA. This was an interesting one. <span> Originally Groupe Sp&#233;cial Mobile Association, it is the global industry organization that represents the interests of mobile network operators and the broader mobile ecosystem. Headquartered in </span><strong><span>London</span></strong><span>, it unites over </span><strong><span>1,100 companies</span></strong><span>, including more than 750 mobile operators and 400 ecosystem partners, to drive innovation and reduce inequalities through connectivity.  This is </span>the global system for mobile communications. It is an association, a nonprofit, that represents mobile network provider&#8217;s interests.</p><p>It shouldn&#8217;t take long to recognize that this is the planned digital ID for your phone&#8212;that&#8217;ll eventually progress to a microchip that is implanted in you. Step one&#8212;get it on the phones and get you used to having a digital ID. Then&#8230;</p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;0b2e6bf0-189e-4d86-b819-be615f531e0c&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p>And so the GSMA is clearly part of this whole partnership. </p><p>Next, we come over to the WEF, the more well-known World Economic Forum. They are considered the main thought leader when it comes to digital ID. And the WEF sets the global agenda for the frameworks of what they roll out. You can easily search and look through their white papers and reports. </p><p>Now one thing more recently to note with the WEF, would be Larry Fink. This is probably a name you&#8217;ve heard of, especially when it now comes to the Trump administration. He is not only the new interim co-chair board member of the WEF, but he also happens to be the CEO of BlackRock. </p><p><em><strong>He is also part of Trump&#8217;s inner circle. </strong></em></p><p><strong>Are you hearing this, MAGA people?</strong></p><p>Contrary to the illusions you STILL subscribe to, Trump has aligned himself with the technocrats, the billionaires, and the globalists. <em><strong>Trump is an integral part of rolling out the digital ID.</strong></em> </p><p>Newsflash, no, he&#8217;s NOT fighting the Globalists. There is no &#8220;5- D Trump chess&#8221; going on here. I&#8217;m sorry, but he&#8217;s NOT Making America Great Again. We&#8217;ve been fooled. </p><p>We must wake the heck up, for the love of all things holy.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg" width="800" height="543" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/efa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:543,&quot;width&quot;:800,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!FYmk!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fefa6fdeb-66e5-4176-a7b5-d00813d2da38_800x543.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>The last entity is ID2020. This is a US-based NGO alliance, some of it &#8220;nonprofit&#8221;. Formed in 2014, this clearly goes back many years in the planning. Their goal is to promote &#8220;privacy-protecting digital ID&#8221; (more deceptive branding for the apathetic sheeple), that is aligned with the UN Strategic Development Goals. This ID2020, this alliance, is a public-private partnership with all the major corporations. </p><p><em><strong>We&#8217;re talking about all of your big tech corporations, your big healthcare organizations, your big IT infrastructure organizations, and your big financial institutions as well. </strong></em></p><p>Just naming a few, we can highlight Microsoft, Accenture, Gavi Vaccine Alliance, and  MasterCard. So out of ID2020, Gavi and MasterCard, and Gavi being the Vaccine Alliance&#8212;they supposedly partnered to create a digital vaccine record to track those poor, big-harma underserved children in underdeveloped countries. Yeah, it uses MasterCard&#8217;s technology. </p><p><em><strong>Gavi is the vaccine passport part of the digital ID.</strong></em> </p><p><strong><span>It is worth noting that the Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation</span></strong><span> is the largest private donor to </span><strong><span>Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance</span></strong><span>, having committed over </span><strong><span>$4.1 billion</span></strong><span> to date since its founding role in 1999. Among government donors, the </span><strong><span>United Kingdom</span></strong><span> is typically the largest contributor, having pledged </span><strong><span>&#163;1.25 billion</span></strong><span> (approximately </span><strong><span>$1.7 billion</span></strong><span>) for the 2026&#8211;2030 funding cycle.</span></p><p>So Gavi has an alliance with&#8212;the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the WHO,  UNICEF, and World Bank and others. Now Gavi says clearly that digital ID innovation is central to its mission. </p><p><em><strong>Digital identification is central to the mission of a vaccine alliance.</strong></em></p><p>LET THAT SINK IN.</p><p>The next partnership that came out of ID2020 is Microsoft and Accenture&#8212;founding alliance partners of ID2020. Together they built a blockchain-based identity prototype using biometrics and blockchain, to give undocumented people digital ID. Oh how nice of them. More humanitarian generosity, on full display.  </p><p>And of course there will be many more steps to come where all the infrastructure railways are aligned to connect everything to what you do, say, are, buy, sell, whatever, online&#8212;whatever is digital&#8212;it&#8217;s all going to be connected to you. You cannot hide and will be completely enslaved.  </p><ul><li><p>Missed your assigned transhumanist, nano-tech clot-shot? No work or UBI (Universal Basic Income) for you!</p></li><li><p>Low social credit score because you shared wrong-think online? No travel for you!</p></li><li><p>Carbon allowance maxed out for July? Your UBI card only allows larvae burgers! </p></li></ul><p>I wish I were joking but this crap is real. They have admitted as such on the world&#8217;s stage. They have praised and claimed that China&#8217;s COMMUNIST system is the model for the world! Look at the literal state slavery that those people have been forced to accept as &#8220;normal&#8221;. Add an enhanced digital and transhumanist dimension on top of this and that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re looking at here!

From political institutions, legal institutions, religious institutions, to institutions of social class, familial values, and occupational specialization, it is obvious the profound influence these traditionalized structures have  in shaping our understandings and perspectives.</p><p>Yet, of all the social institutions we are born into, directed by, and conditioned upon,  there seems to be no system that&#8217;s taken for granted and misunderstood as the monetary system. Taking on nearly religious proportions, the established monetary institution exists as one of the most unquestioned forms of faith there is. How money is created, the policies by which it is governed, and how it truly affects society are unregistered interests of the great majority of the population.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption"></p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p>Why is this??</p><p>In a world where 1% of the population owns approximately 40% of the planet&#8217;s wealth. In a world where somewhere between 10,000 - 20,000 children under the age of 5 die <em><strong>every single day</strong></em> from poverty and preventable diseases. And where 25% of the world&#8217;s population lives on only a few bucks per day. One thing is clear. Something is very wrong. And whether we are aware of it or not, the lifeblood of all of our established institutions and thus society itself is money.  </p><p><em><strong>Therefore, understanding this institution of monetary policy is critical to understanding why our lives are the way they are. </strong></em></p><p>Unfortunately, economics is most often viewed with confusion and boredom. I was guilty of this most of my adult life. Never took much interest in it and looking back, I sure wish I had. Endless streams of financial jargon coupled with intimidating mathematics quickly deters people from attempts at understanding it. However, the fact is the complexity associated with the financial system is a mere mask. Designed to conceal one of the most socially paralyzing structures humanity has ever endured.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

document entitled, Modern Money Mechanics. This publication detailed the institutionalized practice of money creation as utilized by the Federal Reserve and the web of global commercial banks it supports. On the opening page, the document states its objective. <em>&#8221;The purpose of this booklet is to describe the basic process of money creation in a fractional reserve banking system.&#8221;</em> It then proceeds to describe this fractional reserve process through various banking terminology. A translation of which goes something like this: </p><p>The United States government decides it needs some money so it calls up the Federal Reserve and requests, say, 10 billion dollars. The Fed replies saying, sure, we&#8217;ll buy 10 billion in government bonds from you. So the government takes some pieces of paper, paints some official looking designs on them and calls them treasury bonds.</p><p>Then, it puts a value on these bonds to the sum of $10 billion and sends them over to the Fed. In turn, the people at the Fed draw up a bunch of impressive pieces of paper themselves, only this time calling them Federal Reserve Notes, also designating a value of $10 billion to the set. The Fed then takes these notes and trades them for the bonds. Once this exchange is complete, the government then takes the $10 billion in Federal Reserve Notes and deposits it into a bank account and upon this deposit, the paper notes officially become legal tender money adding 10 billion to the US money supply.  </p><p><em><strong>And there it is. 10 billion in new money has been created. </strong></em></p><p>Of course, this example is a generalization for,  in reality, this transaction would occur electronically with no paper used at all.  In fact, only 3% of the US money supply exists in physical currency.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png" width="619" height="331.1522633744856" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:520,&quot;width&quot;:972,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:619,&quot;bytes&quot;:766386,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/203028549?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!I-Ps!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc40916a2-a867-4dbb-8679-ea45aced51fe_972x520.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>The other 97% essentially exists in computers alone. Now, government bonds are, by design, instruments of debt. And when the Fed purchases these bonds, with money it essentially created out of thin air, the government is actually promising to pay back that money to the Fed. In other words, the money was created out of debt. This mind-numbing paradox of how money or value can be created out of debt or a liability will become more clear as we further this exercise.  </p><p>So, the exchange has been made and now $10 billion sits in a commercial bank account. Here&#8217;s where it gets really interesting. For as based on the fractional reserve practice that $10 billion deposit instantly becomes part of the bank&#8217;s reserves  just as all deposits do. And regarding reserve requirements as stated in modern money mechanics, a bank must maintain legally required reserves equal to a prescribed percentage of its deposits. It then quantifies this by stating, under current regulations, the reserve requirement against most transaction accounts is 10%. This means that with a $10 billion deposit, 10% or 1 billion is held as the required reserve while the other 9 billion is considered an excessive reserve and can be used as the basis for new loans.</p><p>Now, it is logical to assume that this 9 billion is literally coming out of the existing 10 billion dollar deposit. However, this is actually not the case. What really happens is that the 9 billion is simply created out of thin air on top of the existing 10 billion dollar deposit. This is how the money supply is expanded. As stated in modern money mechanics, of course they, the banks, do not really pay out loans from the money they receive as deposits.</p><p>If they did this, no additional money would be created. What they do when they make loans is to accept promissory notes, loan contracts, in exchange for credits, money, to the borrower&#8217;s transaction accounts. </p><p><em><strong>In other words, the 9 billion can be created out of nothing simply because there is a demand for such a loan and that there is a 10 billion dollar deposit to satisfy the reserve requirements.</strong></em></p><p>Let&#8217;s assume that somebody walks into this bank and borrows the newly available $9 billion. They will then most likely take that money and deposit it into their own bank account. The process then repeats. For that deposit becomes part of the bank&#8217;s reserves. 10% is isolated and in turn 90% of the 9 billion or 8.1 billion is now available as newly created money for more loans. And of course, that 8.1 can be loaned out and redeposited creating an additional 7.2 billion to 6.5 billion to 5.9 billion, etc. This deposit money creation loan cycle can technically go on to infinity. </p><p><em><strong>The average mathematical result is that about 90 billion dollars can be created on top of the original 10 billion.

For the total pool of money, is being increased, irrespective to demand for goods and services. And as supply and demand finds equilibrium, prices rise, diminishing the purchasing power of each individual dollar. This is generally referred to as inflation, and inflation is essentially a hidden tax on the public.  </p><p>What is the BS excuse that we are generally <em>fed </em>(pun intended)? And that is, that we must inflate the currency. They don&#8217;t say they need to <em>debase</em> the currency, they don&#8217;t say <em>devalue</em> the currency, they don&#8217;t say <em>cheat the people who have saved</em>. They say things like, &#8220;we must lower the interest rates&#8221;. </p><p>The real deception is when we distort the value of money. When we create money out of thin air&#8212;when we have no savings! </p><p>So my question boils down to this.  </p><p><em><strong>How in the world can we expect to solve the problems of inflation, that is the increase in the supply of money, with more inflation??? </strong></em></p><p><em><strong>Of course, we can&#8217;t.</strong></em>  </p><p>The fractional reserve system of monetary expansion is inherently inflationary, for the act of expanding the money supply without there being a proportional expansion of goods and services in the economy, we will always debase a currency. In fact, a quick glance at the historical values of the US dollar versus the money supply reflects this point definitively for the inverse relationship is obvious.</p><div

It&#8217;s crazy when you wrap your head around the fact that <em>this</em> is how it all works.</p><p>In fact, the last time in American history the national debt was completely paid off  was in 1835 after President Andrew Jackson shut down the central bank that preceded the Federal Reserve. In fact, Jackson&#8217;s entire political platform essentially revolved around his commitment to shut down the central bank, stating at one point something like&#8212;<em>&#8221;the bold efforts the present bank has made to control the government are but premonitions of the fate that awaits the American people&#8230;&#8221;. </em></p><p>Unfortunately, his message was short-lived and the international bankers succeeded to install another central bank in 1913&#8212;<strong><a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/the-federal-reserve-is-neither-federal?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&amp;utm_medium=web">the Federal Reserve</a></strong>. And as long as this institution exists, perpetual debt is guaranteed. The rich elite get richer and more powerful and we, the people, continue to be their debt slaves.</p><p>Now, so far we have discussed the reality that money is created out of debt through loans. These loans are based on a bank&#8217;s reserves and reserves are derived from deposits. And through this fractional reserve system, any one deposit can create nine times its original value, in turn debasing the existing money supply, raising prices in society. And since all this money is created out of debt and circulated randomly through commerce, people become detached from their original debt and a disequilibrium exists where people are forced to compete for labor in order to pull enough money out of the money supply to cover their costs of living, as dysfunctional and backwards as all of this might seem. There is still one thing we have omitted from this equation however. And it is this element of the structure which reveals the truly fraudulent nature of the system itself. </p><p><em><strong>The application of <a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/history-of-the-money-changers">interest.</a></strong></em></p><p>When the government borrows money from the Fed or when a person borrows money from a bank, it almost always has to be paid back with accrued interest. In other words, almost every single dollar that exists must be eventually returned to a bank with interest paid as well. But, if all money is borrowed from the central bank and is expanded by commercial banks through loans, only what would be referred to as the principal is being created in the money supply.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg" width="599" height="449.25" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/a1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:600,&quot;width&quot;:800,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:599,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gtXI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa1cd0aed-a8ee-4c40-9313-d19db85fa035_800x600.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>So then, where is the money to cover all of the interest that is charged? Nowhere. It doesn&#8217;t exist. The ramifications of this are staggering for the amount of money owed back to the banks will always exceed the amount of money that is available in circulation. This is why inflation is a constant in the economy for new money is always needed to help cover the perpetual deficit built in to the system caused by the need to pay the interest. What this also means is that mathematically, defaults and bankruptcy are literally built into the system and there will always be poor pockets of society that get the short end of the stick. An analogy would be a game of musical chairs, for once the music stops, somebody is left out to dry. And that&#8217;s the point. It invariably transfers true wealth from the individual to the banks.</p><p><em><strong>For if you are unable to pay for your mortgage, they will take your property.</strong></em> </p><p>This is particularly enraging when you realize that not only is such a default inevitable due to the fractional reserve practice, but also because of the fact that the money that the bank loaned to you didn&#8217;t even legally exist in the first place. </p><p>For every time you borrow money from a bank, whether it is a mortgage loan or a credit card charge, the money given to you is not only counterfeit, it is an illegitimate form of consideration and hence voids the contract or repay, for the bank never had the money as property to begin with. Unfortunately, such legal realizations are suppressed and ignored and the game of perpetual wealth transfer and perpetual debt continues. </p><p><em><strong>And this brings us to the ultimate question. Why???</strong></em></p><p>During the American Civil War, President Lincoln bypassed the high interest loans offered by the European banks and decided to do what the founding fathers advocated which was to create an independent and inherently debt-free currency. It was called the Greenback.</p><p>Shortly after this measure was taken, an internal document circulated between private British and American banking interests stated, slavery is but the owning of labor and carries with it the care of laborers. While the European plan is that capital shall control labor by controlling wages. This can be done by controlling the money. It will not do to allow the greenback as we cannot control that.  </p><p><em><strong>The fractional reserve policy perpetrated by the Federal Reserve, which has spread in practice to the great majority of banks in the world, is, in fact, a system of modern slavery.</strong></em></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg" width="613" height="365.8683966635774" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:644,&quot;width&quot;:1079,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:613,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!EjaR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2aa4072f-b414-4df1-9076-4835b6aab520_1079x644.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Think about it.

You can&#8217;t demand transparency.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg" width="597" height="461.481" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:773,&quot;width&quot;:1000,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:597,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Debt Labor - Bonded Labor - Modern Slavery&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Debt Labor - Bonded Labor - Modern Slavery" title="Debt Labor - Bonded Labor - Modern Slavery" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3lWG!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F734375a2-f579-4ceb-96ed-ad34d6fdff77_1000x773.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>That kind of unchecked power should concern every single American&#8212;regardless of political affiliation. We live in a system where the most powerful economic decisions are made<span> </span><strong>without public input or legal accountability</strong><span>. We act like this is normal. It&#8217;s NOT. </span>This system is not only undemocratic&#8212;it&#8217;s proven that it&#8217;s absolutely dangerous to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These banksters have grown so rich and powerful through their ongoing Ponzi scheme, such that they now largely control the entire world. </p><h3><strong>The Bottom Line</strong></h3><p>The Federal Reserve (a PRIVATE corporation!) was supposedly created to bring stability. What a load of BS that was. It should be abundantly clear to all of us by now that it operates as a<span> </span><strong>debt-driven machine</strong>, benefiting the ultra wealthy &#8220;ruling elites&#8221; and their well-connected (compromised) cronies, while leaving the rest of us to carry the burden. This awful system creates money from nothing, fuels inflation, rewards speculation over savings, and does so outside the reach of the Constitution.</p><p>In the end, a system that steals from us and our future generations, hides behind legal loopholes, and operates in the shadows can no longer be tolerated. The question is not if this will continue to hurt us&#8212;but <strong>will we </strong>allow them to use the accelerating end of this currency and empire cycle, to &#8220;reset&#8221; us into a dystopian digital system that will be near impossible to escape?</p><p>I sure hope not but we had better wake up and wake up fast.</p><p>If slavery is not your gig, there are solutions (see the

He said, quote, if we did have a category, it would be personal information. Everything you&#8217;ve ever heard or seen or experienced will be searchable.  Your whole life will be searchable. And most people missed it. The journalists in the room, the tech reporters, the early investors.</p><p>They had all heard those words and just moved on to the next question like it was nothing. Nobody realized they&#8217;d just witnessed the birth of something entirely new and very dark.</p><p>The thing about dystopias that we see portrayed in movies is that they announce themselves in a very clear way. There are uniforms, curfews, soldiers standing on street corners. The villains wear black and speak in slogans and tell us plainly what they&#8217;re about to take. Real dystopias though, don&#8217;t work like that. They don&#8217;t arrive with sirens or speeches. They slip in quietly one small compromise at a time.</p><p>These often feel harmless on their own but slowly, almost imperceptibly, the world reshapes itself  until the life you&#8217;re living looks nothing like the one you thought you were signing up for. But by the time you realize something&#8217;s wrong, leaving no longer feels like an option. It&#8217;s just too abstract because this is now the reality you live in.  We didn&#8217;t have our privacy ripped away from us in a violent way. We gave it up for convenience.</p><p>Every single one of us clicked I agree on terms we never even read. We downloaded apps that wanted our contacts, our location, our photos, sometimes even our microphone. In exchange, we got connected. Free social media and free maps that always seemed to know where we were going. It felt like a fair trade, maybe even a smart one. A Harvard professor, Shoshana Zubov, spent years studying this shift&#8212;she calls it surveillance capitalism.  </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png" width="1207" height="726" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:726,&quot;width&quot;:1207,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:417836,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/202235048?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AS9U!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F39ddcfb7-2c0a-4ea4-9776-2727a8d8ed4d_1207x726.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>In her work, she describes a new kind of economic system, one that treats human experience itself as raw material.

The dot com bubble had just burst, money was disappearing overnight and investors were circling the exits. Google had built something remarkable, a search engine that actually worked but no one inside the company could explain how it was supposed to actually make money. And then someone noticed something small. Every time a person searched they left something behind. Not just the words they typed but how long they stayed on a page, what they clicked and what they skipped, which links they hovered over, even the spelling mistakes they made along the way. Well, Google have been collecting all of it, quietly, automatically, treating it like digital exhaust, leftovers and waste.</p><p>But one data scientist saw it differently. This wasn&#8217;t exhaust, it was insight. Because when you gathered enough of these traces from enough people, you could start to see patterns. And once you could see patterns, you could begin to predict behavior. What someone was likely to click next, what they were leaning toward, and what had their attention in that moment. And if you could predict that, advertisers would pay handsomely to be placed directly in its path.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png" width="1456" height="560" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/adbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:560,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:382774,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/202235048?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!s5TE!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadbc638a-744c-41f1-9ba5-13dd40286837_1881x724.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Google called it the click-through rate, and it saved the company. But more than that, it created a template, a model that would be copied, refined, and scaled across the entire tech industry. The human behavior was no longer just information, it was inventory. Probably the best watchword has been offered for years by observers of social media. Don&#8217;t think you&#8217;re the customer, you are the product.</p><p>It didn&#8217;t take long for Facebook to catch on. In 2008, Mark Zuckerberg hired Sheryl Sandberg away from Google and she brought the blueprint with her. Within a year, Facebook rewrote its privacy rules from the ground up. The company decided, in Zuckerberg&#8217;s words, that certain things would simply become the social norms now,  whether users agreed or not. Translated into plain language, your information would be taken analyzed and sold, and the company was betting that most people would complain quietly and then log back in anyway. And that&#8217;s exactly what we all did.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png" width="1456" height="586" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:586,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:504219,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/202235048?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4fdV!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2efb20b3-5688-43a5-9241-c8f2a5511a5a_1762x709.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Today, Google processes trillions of data points every single day. Facebook&#8217;s prediction systems generate millions of forecasts every single second about what you&#8217;ll click, what you&#8217;ll buy, and what might pull you just a little further in one direction. This is no longer just advertising. What&#8217;s being built are detailed behavioral models, quiet profiles of your personality, your anxieties, your habits, and your weak spots.</p><p>And access to those models is for sale to insurance companies, political campaigns,  employers, data brokers, even foreign governments. The average American has their location and online behavior exposed 747 times a day through real-time bidding systems, companies competing in milliseconds for the chance to influence them. In Europe, where privacy protections are stronger than anywhere else in the world, it still happens 376 times a day. There&#8217;s no real escape, no meaningful opt out, the extraction doesn&#8217;t pause. I mean, really, do you enjoy scrolling through Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, or wherever online? Does it really bring you any form of real happiness? No, it does not. And yet so many wake up in the morning, and it&#8217;s one of the first things you do. </p><p><em><strong>And that&#8217;s the intention.</strong></em></p><p>This is what surveillance capitalism is. And you might think, well, I can always just get offline. Well, not really, because at this point in time, participation isn&#8217;t optional.

Because once these companies had enough data, they realized something even more powerful than prediction. They didn&#8217;t just have to anticipate our behavior, they could steer it. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIXhnWUmMvw">Shoshana Zuboff </a>describes this shift as moving from data collection to what she calls behavioral actuation. </p><p>It sounds abstract and technical, but what it really means is this:</p><p><em><strong>The same systems built to watch you can also be used to nudge you, to shape your choices, to influence what you believe, and to quietly push behavior and directions chosen by somebody else. And most of the time, you never even feel it happening.</strong></em></p><p>Facebook&#8217;s own engineers have admitted this in internal documents. The system is built to maximize engagement, which really means keeping you on the platform as long as possible, reacting as intensely as possible. And guess what? The algorithm learned quickly that outrage works best. So that feeling you have about how the world&#8217;s gone crazy in recent years,  it certainly appears like that to most of us, even if it isn&#8217;t actually true. The algorithm figured out that misinformation spreads faster than facts. Fear, it outperforms reassurance, and extremes beat moderation.  So  that&#8217;s what gets amplified.</p><p>And it&#8217;s not because executives or the government sits around plotting to radicalize people, but because the machine is optimized for one thing only, keeping you scrolling. Everything else becomes collateral damage, truth, mental health, social trust, even democracy itself.</p><p>In Facebook&#8217;s own privacy engineers wrote a memo acknowledging something even more unsettling. They said they no longer know where user data actually goes once it enters the system. They compared it to pouring ink into a lake and then trying to put it back into the bottle. Their internal systems, they said, have open borders. They can&#8217;t fully track data flows. They can&#8217;t meaningfully promise restraint to regulators or to users, which is all very convenient. The system has grown too large and too hungry to control. So all the bad stuff happening, there&#8217;s no one single person to blame. And here&#8217;s some sobering intel that we all need to be aware of, no matter where you fall on the political spectrum.</p><p>In the lead up to the 46th US presidential election, Americans were exposed to an estimated 760 million instances of fake news online. And that works out to roughly three false stories for every adult in the country. By 2020, Facebook posts linking to deceptive websites generated 1.2 billion interactions in a single quarter. In other words, the system was doing exactly what it was built to do.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png" width="1456" height="494" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/bcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:494,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:496248,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/202235048?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0W0A!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbcd50981-8de9-4ae1-a97e-6f0a26fe69ad_1684x571.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Study after study has shown that misinformation outperforms reliable information across the board. It gets more clicks, more shares, and more reactions, regardless of political ideology. And this new system we&#8217;re all working in  has not been built to value the truth, and that is the world we&#8217;re all living in and need to understand. But the complete collapse of our ability to agree on what&#8217;s true is not our fault. It&#8217;s all baked into the technology.</p><p>Now these systems we&#8217;re talking about are built on a principle borrowed from Cold War-era communication theory, one that values speed and volume over meaning.  The engineer who formalized it, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claude_Shannon">Claude Shannon</a>, was clear about this. In his model, the meaning of a message didn&#8217;t matter at all. From an engineering perspective, it was totally irrelevant. All that mattered was that the signal arrived intact.  That approach made sense for military communications.</p><p><em><strong>But we&#8217;ve taken that same logic and now applied it to human interaction.</strong></em></p><p>Platforms like Facebook process messages as raw throughput, as interchangeable units, without regard for whether they&#8217;re true or false, helpful or harmful. For example, Facebook was amplifying WHO and CDC lies and COVID conspiracy theories to the tune of millions and millions of people per day. And they&#8217;re doing that in a really targeted and strategic way. They are tracking our every move. They are collecting our personal and demographic data and then they&#8217;re driving content to us based on our perceived interests and vulnerabilities. That means a deeply reported investigation from a reputable reporter moves through the system the same way as a fabricated story from the lady across the street. </p><p><em><strong>The system can&#8217;t tell the difference and more importantly, it was never designed to care. </strong></em></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

Where basic facts become negotiable, where every major event is instantly surrounded by competing conspiracies, where expertise carries no more weight than guesswork, and confidence matters more than accuracy.</p><p>And as I&#8217;ve said before, this isn&#8217;t a malfunction. This is the system working exactly as it was built to work, and we&#8217;re all just in the middle of it. While all this is happening, something else is unfolding in the background, something that may prove even more destabilizing in the long run. As data became the most valuable resource on Earth,  the institutions that controlled it began to rival  and in some cases surpass the power of governments.</p><p>Today, corporations can silence speech instantly, removing people from public conversation with the snap of their fingers. They control the platforms, which means they control what billions of people see if they so choose. They decide who gets to participate in this digital economy and who gets locked out. And this is already happening and will continue to do so.</p><p>So it&#8217;s no surprise these companies spend enormous sums lobbying lawmakers because they want to keep that control. </p><div

It&#8217;s about getting something even more valuable than money,  power, and power over people. These companies you see are now quietly stepping into roles once held by democratic institutions. </p><p>Apple CEO Tim Cook said the quiet part out loud while talking about healthcare, quote, we are taking what has been with the institution and empowering the individual. Now it sounds reassuring, but what that really means is that Apple gets to define what empowerment looks like. Decisions that were once debated in public and shaped by law are being absorbed into private systems  where rules are written internally, enforcement is opaque, and accountability flows upward to executives, not outward towards citizens.</p><p><em><strong>And this isn&#8217;t limited to healthcare either.  </strong></em></p><p>Education, transportation, communication, commerce, even how we access money or move through cities. More and more of daily life is being mediated by a small number of corporations that answer to shareholders, not voters. When these systems fail,  when they cause harm or violate rights or reshape society in damaging ways, there&#8217;s no real reckoning.</p><p>There are statements, yes, apologies, fines that barely

The majority of the population, in other words. Well, this is where you really get to see that we&#8217;re already in that dystopia.</p><p>Over the last 40 years, worker productivity has increased by roughly 62 % and wages,  they barely moved. All that value went somewhere though, it went up, way up to the tippity top. CEO pay rose by more than 900 % over that same period. The wealth gap is now wider than it&#8217;s been since the 1920s.</p><p>Just three people in the United States hold more wealth than the entire bottom half of the country combined. That&#8217;s not a knock on capitalism. It&#8217;s just what&#8217;s happening and the fallout is going to cause some real issues moving forward. We are at a tipping point  and all those people in the bottom half feel it more than ever. That constant low-grade fear that everything they&#8217;ve built could collapse at any moment. That one medical bill, one car repair. One unexpected expense could wipe them out. Well at some point, people will get pushed over the edge and in fact it&#8217;s already happening.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png" width="1456" height="852" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:852,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:803601,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/202235048?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mtB!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F57cc2959-2bb7-4813-81a3-a4be3731c922_1666x975.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Salesforce recently cut 4,000 customer service jobs and replaced them with AI systems. HP plans to eliminate up to 6,000 positions by 2028. Accenture cut 11,000 roles explicitly because automation could handle the work. Duolingo announced it would stop hiring contractors for tasks AI can perform. And every other major company is just following suit.  </p><p><em><strong>So, this isn&#8217;t the end of the shift.

things, to trust our own perceptions, to distinguish truth from lies. And those handful of corporations controlling information, who answer to no one and have no incentive to fix this, well, they profit from confusion as we&#8217;ve learned.</p><p><em><strong>If all this makes sense and feels familiar to you, you&#8217;re a part of it.</strong></em></p><p>So, right now we&#8217;re living in dystopia. Not the Hollywood version with leather jackets and neon lights, but a quieter, more insidious version where the chains are invisible and surveillance feels like service. People are stressed, unhealthy, stuck in office chairs, staring at screens, buried in debt. If you told someone 200 years ago that life would look like this, they&#8217;d probably be shocked and terrified.</p><p><em><strong>Humans were never meant to sit all day staring at pixels, and yet here we are.</strong></em></p><p>Now, you&#8217;re wondering if there&#8217;s a way out, well, yes, there is, but it&#8217;s not really up to you unless you do something totally drastic like going and living off the grid on a deserted island. Now, the real hope actually by TURNING OFF THE TV and SOCIAL MEDIA FOR GOOD. You&#8217;ll be amazed how a literal cloud lifts and you get yourself back! Like it or not, the genie is out of the bottle so it is also in the future of AI and how it all unfolds. Because part of what we learned from everything we&#8217;ve talked about is that technology doesn&#8217;t make choices, people do. So the same AI that helps a doctor diagnose cancer, can also be used to deny your insurance claim. It really depends on who controls it, who programs it, and who gets to decide.</p><p><em><strong>Hopefully they make the right call&#8212;and that right there might be the scariest part of all this.</strong></em></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Back then they only had newspapers and radio. Bernays would be flabbergasted at the propaganda tools currently in the hands of the bamboozlers. Convincing a massively dumbed down populace of anything today is like taking candy from a baby.</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. <strong>Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.</strong> We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. <strong>It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind</strong>.&#8221;</em> &#8202;&#8211; <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4fU2spd">Propaganda</a></strong></p></blockquote><p>The bamboozles went into overdrive at the start of this century. Those who profit from chaos, war and debt were down in the dumps, as there were no major conflicts in the world, deficits and government spending were under control, the internet was going to make our lives easier, and the optimism of a new century was lifting the spirits of America. The <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4x8wqwc">Deep State</a></strong> bad actors needed to rectify the situation and the <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4x8tWOk">9/11 bamboozle</a></strong> was just what the doctor ordered. This inside job, probably in cooperation with Israel, ignited two decades of war, tens of trillions in government debt creation, implementation of the surveillance state through the <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/3PFjyg9">pre-written Patriot Act</a></strong>, 100% increase in inflation (using the fake CPI number), and multiple bubbles/crashes used to lure the masses into consumer debt

The unpayable national debt exceeding $39 trillion and the unfunded social welfare liabilities exceeding $200 trillion are guaranteed to create a governmental financial collapse. Credit card debt, mortgage debt, auto loan debt and student loan debt are at all-time highs, with defaults accelerating. We are losing a war, AI is taking our jobs, inflation is soaring, and the average schmuck is buying stocks at all-time highs, when a crash is inevitable. It seems Americans love being bamboozled, until the consequences land on their heads like a ton of bricks.

Rob You Blind</strong></h4><p>The level of Trump psyops we are seeing right now is reaching a fever pitch.</p><p>If you&#8217;re still watching the mainstream media &#8216;news&#8217;, you&#8217;re suffering from whiplash. One minute, we are on the brink of annihilation. The next, messianic figures are signing historic agreements.</p><p>In the last 90 days, the narrative that a &#8216;peace deal&#8217; is &#8216;close to being signed&#8217; has been run a staggering 161 times.</p><p>Let me repeat that: 161 times!</p><p>That is the definition of insanity. It&#8217;s a loop designed to wear down your critical thinking until you just accept the script.</p><p>If a realtor told you &#8220;we&#8217;re close to a deal&#8221; regarding your house for 90 days straight, running that same line 161 times, you would have fired them. You would realize you are being played.</p><p>They aren&#8217;t just bombing targets in the Middle East; they are sanitizing the planet for a digital prison. The ongoing conflict isn&#8217;t about politics&#8230; It&#8217;s a ritualistic erasure of human history to make way for a high-tech AI nightmare.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

I&#8217;ve warned you about this repeatedly. The psyops are relentless. Remember when Trump was going to &#8220;drain the swamp&#8221; and expose the Epstein network? Remember when he was going to lock Hillary Clinton up? Well, fast forward to today, and what do we see? Donald Trump&#8217;s son just married <strong><a href="https://search.brave.com/search?q=trump%2C+epstein%2C+daughter&amp;source=desktop&amp;summary=1&amp;conversation=0928b86baf5aeb29382e4aa435658bd0b8d7">the daughter of Jeffrey Epstein&#8217;s banker</a></strong>. Yeah, you read that right. The banker who handled the money for the Mossad blackmail operation is now family. They keep it all in the bloodline. It&#8217;s almost funny, in a tragic sort of way, that Trump himself didn&#8217;t even bother to show up to the wedding.</p><p>This brings us to the real reason for the destruction we are seeing in places like Iran and Gaza. Do you think these billions of dollars of explosives are being dropped randomly? Israel is destroying Tyre, a city more than 5,000 years old... a UNESCO heritage site. This is a calculated cultural erasure for technocratic control.</p><p>They are turning the cradle of civilization into a blank slate.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

Iran and massive AI data centers. We are talking about Smart Cities built on the rubble of history. I mentioned this months ago, and now it&#8217;s unfolding exactly as predicted. According to US forces, there is a plan on the table to give Iran $300 billion for &#8220;rebuilding&#8221; after the destruction stops. Let that sink in. They steal trillions from the American taxpayer, use billions to blow Iran to smithereens, and then they claim they will give $300 billion to rebuild it.</p><p>It&#8217;s the perfect racket. <strong><a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/order-out-of-chaos?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&amp;utm_medium=web">Create the problem, fund the solution, and pocket the difference in the middle</a></strong>. They did this with World War I and World War II. Blow it up, steal the gold, put the population into debt slavery, and rebuild everything under a new centralized control system. The difference this time is that what they are rebuilding is not for humans. It&#8217;s for the AI. They need the infrastructure for the 6G networks, the smart grids, and the biometric surveillance systems. They don&#8217;t want people living in these historic zones; they want nodes on the network.</p><p>And, if you think this is just about the Middle East, you&#8217;re missing <strong><a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/a-warning-prepare-to-get-outside?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&amp;utm_medium=web">the economic hammer that is about to drop</a></strong>. We&#8217;ve seen this movie before. The last time we saw oil shipment blockades and conflicts in this region involving Israel was in 1973 during the Yom Kippur War. That was a Rothschild-backed operation, just like this one. Half the world&#8217;s sulfur supply once passed through the strait. Today, we are talking about disruptions of 20 million barrels a day or more. This is the Yom Kippur War on steroids. When you layer that on top of the debt bubble and the collapse of the US dollar, you get a recipe for a total financial reset. They are going to use this chaos to roll out their CBDCs and strip you of whatever remaining financial freedom you have.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png" width="629" height="236.61442006269593" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:360,&quot;width&quot;:957,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:629,&quot;bytes&quot;:196932,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/200319539?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!AUVa!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a5c137c-7955-422b-afa9-b65d8fdc913d_957x360.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong><a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/psychological-war-on-the-masses-you?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&amp;utm_medium=web">But why do people fall for this?</a></strong> It comes down to the root of the problem: The Religion of Government.

Now that the agenda should be abundantly clear to many of us, the question that remains is, &#8220;What the heck can and will I DO about it?&#8221; Understanding the agenda is important but in the end, many of the potential solutions will largely remain the same, regardless of the details.<br><br>It&#8217;s time to get started. <br><br>While some will claim that this global control plan will ultimately fail, or that it is Biblical, and we just need to trust in God&#8217;s plan&#8212;know that I either largely agree, or am simply not here to debate that. This article is more about practical physical preparedness. I think that no matter our beliefs, we must take personal responsibility in the wake of the global agendas that we face. While there are never any guarantees, I find it extremely unwise not to prepare for the many (all-but-certain) predictively-programmed events we are told to expect.

agenda, is a master plan unveiled in June 2020 by former Chair Klaus Schwab, to radically transform global economies into a &#8220;stakeholder capitalist&#8221; model. The Great Reset is actively pushing for a major overhaul of taxes, regulations, and investments, prioritizing &#8220;equity&#8221; and &#8220;sustainability&#8221; (completely inverted BS buzzwords once you truly study it)&#8212;at the direct expense of our Constitution, our individual property rights&#8212;all of our assets and freedoms!</p><p>Are you listening??</p><p>I would be remiss if I didn&#8217;t point out that what we ultimately face is even more diabolical than that&#8212;when you consider that this cabal&#8217;s plans are deeply rooted in the &#8220;elites&#8221; eugenics and &#8220;depopulation&#8221; movements. Ok, I get it&#8212;it is still difficult for most to accept the fact that a group of unelected bureaucrats, technocrats, NWO secret society scumbags and parasitic satanic &#8220;elite&#8221; bloodlines <a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/at-least-4-billion-useless-eaters?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&amp;utm_medium=web">want most of us dead</a>. Until then, let&#8217;s just continue on with the more-easily digestible obvious.</p><p>Klaus Schwab boldly proclaimed they were using the PLANDEMIC as a catalyst to &#8220;build back a greener and fairer world,&#8221; with governments working together to implement wealth taxes, eliminate fossil fuels, and leverage cutting-edge technologies like AI and surveillance for what he calls the &#8220;public good.&#8221; </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg" width="449" height="472.348" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:789,&quot;width&quot;:750,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:449,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!sXJ1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4376a4cd-107b-4ca3-ad1e-37a5f847a052_750x789.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Meanwhile, Klaus Schwab&#8217;s daughter, Nicole Schwab, has been actively promoting the WEF&#8217;s &#8216;Great Reset&#8217;

This mantra originated from a 2016 essay by Danish politician Ida Auken, published on the WEF&#8217;s website, which envisioned a world by 2030 where people would rent everything&#8212;from homes and cars to appliances and clothes&#8212;through shared services and drones. Auken painted a picture of a city where &#8220;I don&#8217;t own anything&#8230;everything you considered a product has now become a service.&#8221; The WEF amplified this idea in a video summarizing their predictions for 2030, sparking a global debate and backlash. </p><p>Although Auken later backtracked, claiming it was just a thought-provoking scenario to discuss the pros and cons of technology&#8212;the damage was already done. Whether or not you want to believe in this (true) &#8220;conspiracy theory&#8221;, the fact remains that this concept perfectly encapsulates the Great Reset&#8217;s push for a subscription-based economy, where corporations own all the assets and individuals are forced to lease them, lining the pockets of Big Tech and financial giants while stripping away the security and freedom that comes with ownership.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

(environmental, social, governance) metrics to force denser living and reduce private land use, aligning with UN Sustainable Development Goals for 2030. In Australia, for example, this manifests as the bedroom tax, which would coerce downsizing into high-rise rentals&#8212;echoing the UK&#8217;s failed 2013 &#8220;bedroom tax&#8221; that harmed vulnerable tenants without boosting supply. Pauline Hanson of One Nation has called Labor&#8217;s housing tweaks a &#8220;first step&#8221; toward this Reset, where government stakes in homes (up to 40%) morph into outright control.<br><br>Globally, it&#8217;s the same script: Tax private property to fund &#8220;equitable&#8221; redistribution, while the self-proclaimed &#8220;elites&#8221; amass billions of our assets during crises. This isn&#8217;t about fairness&#8212;it&#8217;s about dependency. When you own nothing, you rent from the state-corporate nexus, losing the autonomy that homeownership provides. As property theory shows, ownership isn&#8217;t just financial; it&#8217;s tied to human dignity and happiness, fostering personhood and security. These people truly are sick. Inhuman. Their Reset rejects our dignity, while promoting a BS &#8220;happy&#8221; serfdom where surveillance tracks our every move for &#8220;sustainability.&#8221;<br><br>Ex-investment banker Catherine Austin Fitts says that the &#8216;Great Reset&#8217; is a plan &#8220;to sell to people a vision of a world where the average person has a much smaller command on basic resources and assets and is subject to complete central control.&#8221;<br><br>Now that the stage has been set, let&#8217;s move on to the choices we have in response to this agenda.</p><div

accelerating technological, economic, and governmental changes that are part of this terrible &#8220;New World Order&#8221; (aka Great Reset) plan. Do not fool yourself into thinking these two clear paths won&#8217;t apply to you&#8212;even rudimentary study leads one to realize that these WEF &#8220;elites&#8221; truly mean &#8220;you will own nothing&#8230;&#8221; that they pitched on the world stage. </p><p>One path involves deeper integration into centralized, data-driven systems often described as the &#8220;technocratic agenda&#8221; (Fourth Industrial Revolution)&#8212;ultimately our lives being <em>completely asset stripped</em> and ruled via digital IDs, CBDCs, AI surveillance, and military-grade 5th generation warfare tools from firms like Palantir. The other emphasizes building self-sufficient, decentralized lives and communities outside of heavy system dependency. </p><p>The rest of this article will mostly focus on the path I assume this audience will choose.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

governments, corporations, and AI platforms coordinate resources, behavior, and access through your data.</p><p><strong>Key Features:</strong></p><ul><li><p><strong>Digital Identity and Finance</strong>: Unified digital IDs linked to CBDCs (central bank digital currencies), biometrics, and transaction tracking. &#8220;Proponents&#8221; highlight efficiency, faster payments, inclusion, and fraud reduction. Critics note programmable money will eventually enable expiration dates, spending restrictions, or exclusion based on behavior, social scores, or non-compliance.</p></li><li><p><strong>Surveillance and AI Governance</strong>: Widespread data fusion from phones, cameras, social media, purchases, and movement. Companies like Palantir provide AI tools for governments (and militaries) to integrate disparate datasets for security, immigration enforcement, welfare, and policing. This promises supposed safety and efficiency but raises the obvious risks of pervasive monitoring and &#8220;pre-crime&#8221; or compliance scoring. The very same Palantir capabilities that have been used in the theater of war, are being deployed here at home under Trump. If that doesn&#8217;t give you pause&#8212;perhaps nothing will. MAGA baby!</p></li><li><p><strong>Economic and Social Integration</strong>: 15-minute Smart cities, automated jobs, UBI-style supports tied to digital profiles, gene editing, forced &#8220;health&#8221; procedures, brain-computer interfaces, and &#8220;you will own nothing and be happy&#8221; sharing models (per WEF marketing campaigns and discussions). Work, travel, education, and consumption increasingly require app-based verification and good standing. Gee, sounds super benign. Please, feel free to take everything left that I own, while all of the remaining assets and freedoms roll up to you! </p></li><li><p><strong>Benefits</strong>: Supposed convenience, access to advanced healthcare/tech, potential stability in crises, economic opportunities in the new system, and reduced transaction friction. Centralized coordination can address large-scale issues like &#8220;pandemics&#8221; or &#8220;climate goals.&#8221; If you don&#8217;t see thorough this by now, enjoy your coming &#8220;depopulation&#8221; or slavery.</p></li><li><p><strong>Drawbacks and Risks</strong>: Duh. Erosion of financial/privacy autonomy, potential for political weaponization (e.g., account freezes), dependency on fragile grids and &#8220;elite&#8221; programmed algorithms, loss of agency, and a &#8220;social credit&#8221; dynamic where dissent or non-compliance limits basic needs, let alone opportunities. Historical examples (e.g., China&#8217;s systems) show how data-centric authoritarianism can scale. The original WEF front man, Klaus Schwab, openly declared that China is the model. We should look to his words and China&#8217;s dystopian system as a clear indication of what we&#8217;re talking about. This is straight up &#8220;technocratic slavery&#8221;&#8212;not literal chains, but coercion through incentives, nudges, and exclusions in an AI-enforced panopticon. Gee, sign me up!</p></li></ul><p>It amazes me every day that people are sleepwalking into this agenda and STILL think it&#8217;s either an overblown conspiracy, it won&#8217;t apply to them, or it simply won&#8217;t be as bad as some make it seem. They can&#8217;t seem to take a few hours of their distracted lives to research what these agendas are and what is said straight from the horse&#8217;s mouth. The apathetic masses that are still too busy to care or prepare are in for a seriously rude awakening. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg" width="551" height="309.59197324414714" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:168,&quot;width&quot;:299,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:551,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!nTsw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F73b6708a-4f59-419f-9109-89f944a86c56_299x168.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><h4>Path 2: Building a More Self-Sufficient Parallel Life</h4><p>In an era of increasing centralization&#8212;where governments, corporations, and technology platforms wield insane influence over our data, finance, food systems, and infrastructure&#8212;many individuals are rightfully seeking greater autonomy. Better late than never, I suppose. The drive for self-sufficiency, parallel economies, and resilient communities stems from a desire for security, freedom, and adaptability amid supply chain fragility, regulatory overreach, surveillance trends, and rapid technological change (via AI and data analytics tools like those from Palantir).</p><p>Whether motivated by economic uncertainty, the rightful distrust in our corrupt institutions, or simply a preference for more local control, one can logically outline the following actionable strategies. This is not some grand revolution but more pragmatic, incremental steps that will enhance personal and collective independence. </p><p>This stuff isn&#8217;t rocket science, but it makes a difference. Let it be clear, however&#8212;if you CHOOSE this as your path, you cannot wait for other people to start doing it. You can&#8217;t wait until it&#8217;s necessary. It starts with you&#8212;and it starts now. This will be a ground-up, household-by-household, and community-by-community movement&#8212;it starts with each and every individual. It will require things from each individual that have been largely unknown by the last few generations. Adapting to a different way of living and relearning these skills doesn&#8217;t happen overnight, and again&#8212;you had better not wait until you&#8217;re possibly under duress. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg" width="531" height="298.57105263157894" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:641,&quot;width&quot;:1140,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:531,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;WAR IN IRAN: whispers from heaven&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="WAR IN IRAN: whispers from heaven" title="WAR IN IRAN: whispers from heaven" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7KQ7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F64033c44-7f39-4bbf-8091-2f45de489937_1140x641.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>We must acknowledge and accept that the real solutions are NOT coming via the easy button.

While this will naturally omit some of the comfort and apathy we&#8217;ve come to accept in America, it will also reveal its own rewards in time&#8212;new levels of character, self-sufficiency, autonomy, freedom, and community&#8212;things we will undoubtedly find to be long-lost treasure.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg" width="614" height="288.94117647058823" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:400,&quot;width&quot;:850,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:614,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Uv3-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fac3bfcc2-0f8a-474a-8ae8-2a0470228cd5_850x400.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><h4>1. Achieve More Personal Self-Sufficiency</h4><p>Start with the basics: reduce dependence on fragile global systems and multi-national corporations.</p><ul><li><p><strong>Food Production</strong>: Learn gardening, permaculture, and small-scale farming. Grow calorie-dense crops (potatoes, beans, squash) and nutrient-rich greens. Raise chickens, rabbits, or bees for eggs, meat, and pollination. Preserve food via canning, dehydrating, fermenting, and root cellaring. Aim for a &#8220;victory garden&#8221; mindset scaled to your space&#8212;urban balcony hydroponics or suburban plots both work. Seed saving and heirloom varieties preserve genetic diversity and independence from commercial suppliers.</p></li><li><p><strong>Water and Energy</strong>: Store drinking water, collect rainwater, secure multiple water filtration systems (Berkey-style or DIY ceramic filters), consider solar and electric water distillers and dig wells where feasible. If you are power independent and struggle with supplemental water sources, consider a smaller atmospheric water generator for the ultimate backup strategy. For energy, solar panels with battery storage has gotten considerably more affordable and has become a very important investment. Stack wood, or even consider small wind turbines to provide some off-grid power. Wood stoves, propane backups, solar ovens, and hand tools reduce reliance on the electrical grid. </p></li><li><p><strong>Skills and Health</strong>: Learn basic mechanics and electronics repair. Master first aid, herbal medicine, foraging, sewing, basic carpentry, and metalworking. Stock a deep larder (6-12 months of non-perishables) and rotate supplies. Physical fitness and mental resilience matter&#8212;exercise regularly, read widely, and reduce screen time (working on that myself). Get off of TV, Netflix and Social Media! You will be blown away by how quickly you get over it&#8212;and get part of your life (<a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/psychological-war-on-the-masses-you?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&amp;utm_medium=web">and brain</a>) back.</p></li><li><p><strong>Financial Preparation:</strong> In the following order&#8212;minimize and if possible, eliminate ALL debt (high interest debt first, of course). Live more below your means. Stack months worth of emergency cash reserves. Since cash is rapidly dying, make sure to build a supply of gold and silver that you can store securely. Don&#8217;t forget to stock up on some of the most important barterable goods. </p><ul><li><p>Although controversial and seemingly part of the very digital control grid we&#8217;re looking to avoid, my studies show Bitcoin <em>could</em> still hold real promise for sovereign financial systems. I encourage you to listen to YouTube channels like <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixlBXDqvWro">Simon</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBK4W_l5xyw">Dixon</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC-I9YXEP_c&amp;t=3823s">Jeff Booth</a>, and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BTCSessions/videos">BTC Sessions</a> and dissenting opinions from sources like <a href="https://substack.brownstone.org/p/the-hijacking-of-bitcoin">Brownstone Insights</a> or <a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/parallelsystems/p/the-bitcoin-tether-debt-machine?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&amp;utm_medium=web">Parallel Mike</a> in order to make up your own mind. I can understand how some don&#8217;t want any digital assets, period, and that&#8217;s ok. What&#8217;s not ok is to spread a biased, half-informed story to claim you&#8217;re right. Personally, I think BTC has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSOtyNGlQSc">NOT been compromised</a>, and held in self-custody (cold storage), it could be an additional part of a very portable, sovereign wealth strategy&#8212;my opinion, NFA!</p></li></ul></li></ul><p>Finally, stock up on all of the proper supplies while you can (gardening, building supplies, etc.). Having all of the proper power and non-power tools, as well as things like hand-crank radios, solar chargers, and analog backups (paper maps, books, and cash) to hedge against power or digital failures. There are many online lists covering &#8220;bug in&#8221; and &#8220;bug out&#8221; or &#8220;grid down&#8221; preps, as well as lists of barterable goods worth stocking up on. If you have the means, it&#8217;s a good idea to stock extra supplies! </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/cf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:null,&quot;width&quot;:null,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!3KBp!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcf38623e-e390-4647-b85e-0095430d2e36_528x353.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><h4>2. Develop Parallel Economies and Supply Chains</h4><p>Global just-in-time supply chains are efficient but brittle. Local alternatives create redundancy and assistance, outside of the control grid.</p><ul><li><p><strong>Local Production and Trade</strong>: Support or start small businesses ranging from food processing to repair services. Farmers&#8217; markets, craft fairs, and roadside stands keep money circulating locally. Regional commodity exchanges for grain, lumber, or livestock can emerge organically.</p></li><li><p><strong>Alternative Currencies and Finance</strong>: Precious metals (gold/silver coins), or perhaps certain cryptocurrencies can provide options outside central banks. Barter and favor-based credit systems predate modern finance. Avoid over-reliance on volatile assets; focus on productive capital (land, tools, livestock).</p></li><li><p><strong>Resilient Supply Chains</strong>: Map and connect local producers&#8212;farms, machine shops, herbalists, etc. Bulk storage cooperatives for fuel, fertilizer, and parts. Learn modular manufacturing and 3D printing for spares. Trade networks across regions (rural-urban links) prevent total isolation.</p></li></ul><p>Focus on value creation: build skills and stock goods that people genuinely need. Informal economies have historically thrived during crises.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg" width="541" height="422.40064794816413" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:723,&quot;width&quot;:926,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:541,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4RZO!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5f20d12a-b5ac-423a-aec7-a16ceb269fa0_926x723.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><h4>3. Build Local Communities and Mutual Aid Networks</h4><p>Isolation is vulnerability. Strong communities provide security and efficiency.</p><ul><li><p><strong>Form or join community groups</strong>: Start with neighbors, churches, homeschool networks, etc. Organize skill-shares, tool libraries, and bulk buying clubs. Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farms or co-ops distribute risk and reward. Neighborhood watches or mutual defense pacts (within legal bounds) can enhance safety.</p></li><li><p><strong>Parallel Institutions</strong>: Create or support local education alternatives (homeschooling cooperatives, apprenticeships), dispute resolution (mediation circles), and welfare (church/community funds). Barter networks and time-banks (hours of labor exchanged) bypass some taxation and bureaucracy.</p></li><li><p><strong>Communication</strong>: Use encrypted apps for coordination but maintain offline methods&#8212;ham radio licenses, mesh networks (e.g., goTenna or similar), and physical bulletin boards. Decentralized platforms (like certain blockchain or federated social tools) offer some resistance to single-point control.</p></li></ul><p>Trust is earned slowly; vet people through shared projects rather than ideology.</p><h4>4. Technological and Strategic Considerations</h4><ul><li><p><strong>Data and AI Awareness</strong>: Minimize personal data exhaust&#8212;use cash, pseudonyms, VPNs/Tor where useful, and open-source software. Local AI models (running on personal hardware) can provide tools without cloud dependency. </p></li><li><p><strong>Legal and Political Navigation</strong>: Understand sovereign citizenship, property rights/<a href="https://lyonslogic.substack.com/p/land-patents-a-guide-to-complete?publication_id=3062021&amp;post_id=197918110&amp;isFreemail=true&amp;r=kifm9&amp;triedRedirect=true">land patents</a>, zoning laws, food regulations, etc. Ensure you own your land out right. Advocate for decentralization through local governance. Homesteading on rural land or joining existing resilient areas (e.g., certain rural counties) offers more latitude. Document everything; consult lawyers for group structures (LLCs, land trusts).</p></li><li><p><strong>Scalability</strong>: Begin small and iterate. A single family garden can scale to neighborhood co-ops, then regional alliances. Measure success by reduced dependencies.</p></li></ul><h4>Clarification and Level Setting</h4><p>Let it be clear. The above covers a pretty exhaustive list of all the things we <em>can</em> be doing. Each area can be a deep study by itself. I&#8217;m not saying that I completely understand or am far along with much of it. The fact is, the most basic things should be our primary focus. Do not get overwhelmed and know that this is a <em>journey. </em></p><p><em>&#8220;Do what you can with what you have and where you currently are.&#8221;</em> </p><p>Personally, I have focused on all of the core preps&#8212;I&#8217;ve eliminated all debt and have become much more water, food, and power independent at my primary suburban residence. I have acquired a lot of preps for grid up or down scenarios and have stacked some barterable goods. I may be further along than most, but I still have a LONG way to go. For example, I am still stuck in a salary-based job and have not created alternative/residual income streams; I need to grow a lot more food, and I have made little progress towards building my local supply chains and community. I have lots of work to do. </p><p>Ultimately, I plan to secure a more rural residence that can become my primary homestead or at a minimum, secure a modest backup/bugout property. Clearly, everyone has to be on board for a homestead lifestyle change&#8212;people often don&#8217;t see things the same way. Perhaps when the house is burning down, so-to-speak, people will finally get on the same page.</p><p>The point is, simply take some small steps each week, and before you know it, you&#8217;ll be in a much better position to weather potential storms. You&#8217;ll quickly find yourself an asset to your family, friends, and community&#8212;instead of another liability. That is the goal.</p><p><strong>Furthermore, I&#8217;d like to share the input of a Substack writer named &#8220;<a href="https://substack.com/@parallelmike">Parallel Mike</a>&#8221;, who I think summarizes it quite well:</strong></p><p><em>&#8220;That being so, the solution is right there in front of our faces, screaming out at us. This does not require becoming a full-blown farmer with 100 acres of cropland and 2,000 head of cattle. Actually, that is not what I am speaking of or suggesting at all. What is really needed is what my American friends call a homestead. A simple dwelling with some gardens, a small orchard, a greenhouse or two, beds to grow seasonal vegetables, and a well or water-catchment system. Something that, for many people, is possible. Perhaps a chicken coop can be added for fresh eggs and meat. Perhaps a small wood store. Some fruit trees. A root cellar.</em></p><p><em>At that point, a new self-sustaining unit has been created, one that will provide you with a substantial amount of natural abundance and, if need be, can be expanded upon when times get tough. That is how many people survived the Great Depression. Listen back to interviews with people who lived through those times and you often hear them say, &#8220;There just wasn&#8217;t any money.&#8221; When they say this, one might assume they mean they personally had no money. And that is true. Most people had little in the way of financial reserves. But they also meant it in a very literal sense. The money itself had disappeared from circulation.</em></p><p><em>That is why real assets matter. Tools, food, water, energy, land, skills, community, and tangible wealth are not romantic throwbacks or quaint relics of a simpler age. They are the foundations of human freedom, and they are what allow ordinary people to remain standing when systems built on paper, credit, leverage, and narrative begin to implode around them. We must regain control by rooting ourselves once more in reality: meeting our own needs, strengthening our own communities, and taking responsibility for our own futures.&#8221;</em></p><p>I will also suggest the work of <a href="https://marjorywildcraft.substack.com/?utm_campaign=profile_chips">Marjory Wildcraft</a>, who teaches off-grid living, homesteading, and gardening. She offers a lot of good content and resources.</p><p>Finally, another person I&#8217;ve recognized that is doing great work is <a href="https://substack.com/@derrickbroze">Derrick Broze</a>. His &#8220;<a href="https://theconsciousresistance.com/exb/">45 Day Exit and Build Challenge</a>&#8221; and &#8220;<a href="https://theconsciousresistance.com/">Conscious Resistance Network</a>&#8221; are fantastic. His &#8220;<a href="https://thepyramidofpower.net/">Pyramid of Power</a>&#8221; documentary is one of the best I&#8217;ve seen. This young man leads by example and is all about action. I strive to be more like Derrick.</p><h4><a href="https://markashryock.substack.com/p/the-window-is-2026-what-the-data">What You Can Do Right Now</a></h4><p>Store food. Non-perishable goods, canned foods, dried goods, rice, beans, and anything with a long shelf life. Learn to seal in mylar bags with oxygen absorbers and then put them into food-grade buckets. If you can afford it, buy months&#8217; worth of freeze-dried food. Buy what you can afford now because prices will likely be higher next week and higher the week after that, and at some point the issue may not be price. It could be availability. While the US may be one of the more shielded countries in this regard, things will continue to get exponentially more expensive.</p><p>Store water. If pumping stations lose power or fuel, municipal water systems can be affected. Fill water barrels and use water preservatives. Setup a rain catchment system. Buy water filters. Know your nearest neighbor with a well or your closest natural water source.</p><p>Get to know your local, independent food producers and suppliers. Support your local farmers. Know who around you grows food. Join community groups. The communities that will survive this are the ones with local food production and local distribution networks that do not depend entirely on long-haul trucking from a thousand miles away.</p><p>Garden. If you have ground, plant it. If you have containers, fill them. If you have neither, find someone who does and offer to help. Every seed in the ground this spring is food on the table this fall.</p><p>Talk to your neighbors. This is a community-level challenge, not an individual one. The people who survive systemic disruption are the ones who organize, share, and look out for each other. Not the ones who build the strongest walls. The ones who build the deepest connections.</p><h4>In Summary and Closing</h4><p><em>&#8220;<a href="https://markashryock.substack.com/p/the-window-is-2026-what-the-data">The acute disruption is already here</a>. The structural cascade is locked in. The convergence is real. What you start doing now is what you will have when the full weight lands.</em></p><p><em>We already have millions of people in crisis-level hunger across dozens of countries with confirmed famines. Fertilizer is flowing through Hormuz at 0-10% of pre-&#8221;war&#8221; levels. US diesel inventories are at their lowest since 2005. Oil storage tanks in the United States are hitting bottom by July 4. Europe is hitting bottom this month. The last tanker from the Middle East apparently already docked and emptied. The US government is spending more on interest payments than on defense.&#8221;</em> </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png" width="550" height="394" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:394,&quot;width&quot;:550,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6AH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F344e6d2d-f29e-4dc9-a9e9-d136e49d7680_550x394.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>The signs are there&#8212;are you listening?</p><p>Self-sufficiency is real work with trade-offs: lower convenience, physical labor, and learning curves. Not everyone can move to a farm&#8212;hybrid approaches (urban skills + rural ties) often succeed. History shows decentralized systems (medieval guilds, frontier communities, and black markets) endure when central ones falter, but they require social cohesion and practical competence. Competence comes from action over time.</p><p>The 4th Industrial Revolution promises efficiency and control through data, automation, and biotech integration, but human-scale alternatives&#8212;rooted in biology, craftsmanship, and voluntary cooperation&#8212;persist because most people naturally value autonomy and FREEDOM.

However, before you jump to the timeline, please read this invaluable introduction which will tell you who the Rothschilds are as oppose to who they claim to be. It is vitally important that you are open to <a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/are-all-wars-bankers-wars">questioning previously held beliefs</a>, largely indoctrinated since birth. </p><p>The Rothschilds claim that they are Jewish, when in fact they are Khazars. They are from a country called Khazaria, which occupied the land locked between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea which is now predominantly occupied by Georgia. The reason the Rothschilds claim to be Jewish is that the Khazars under the instruction of the King, converted to the Jewish faith in 740 A.D., but of course that did not include converting their Asiatic Mongolian genes to the genes of the Jewish people.</p><p>You will find that approximately 90% of people in the world today who call themselves Jews are actually Khazars, or as they like to be known, Ashkenazi Jews. These people knowingly lie to the world with their claims that the land of Israel is theirs by birthright, when in actual fact their real homeland is over 800 miles away in Georgia.</p><p>So, next time you hear an Israeli Prime Minister bleating about the so-called persecution of the Jews, consider this, every Prime Minister of Israel has been an Ashkenazi Jew. Therefore when all these Prime Ministers have curried favor with the West for their re-establishment of a Jewish homeland, they have knowingly and deliberately lied to you, as they were never from that region, and they well know it, because it is they who call themselves Ashkenazi Jews.</p><p>The Book of Revelation, Chapter 2, Verse 9, states the following which would appear to be about these Ashkenazi Jews:</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;I know thy works, and tribulation and poverty, (but thou art rich) and <em>I know</em> the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but <em>are</em> the synagogue of Satan.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>One of the more wealthy bloodlines and the leader of the Ashkenazi Jews in the world today is the Rothschild family. As you will see in the timeline, the Rothschilds have obtained this position through lies, manipulation and murder. Their bloodline also extends into the Royal Families of Europe, and the following family names: Astor; Bundy; Collins; duPont; Freeman; Kennedy; Morgan; Oppenheimer; Rockefeller; Sassoon; Schiff; Taft; and Van Duyn.</p><p>However, these are not the only bloodlines to worry about. You are probably aware of the centuries old practice undertaken by many Ashkenazi Jews whereby they would change their name, in order for them to appear part of the dominant race of the country in which they lived, so as they could obtain influential positions in that country, which they would then exploit to serve their real masters elsewhere. There is plenty of evidence to prove the Rothschilds continue that deceptive tradition.</p><p>Furthermore the Rothschilds are known to sire many children secretly that they can put into positions of power when required. This started with the very first man who took the name Rothschild, who had a secret sixth son. Finally, remember the world is a diverse place, I could if I wanted change my name to Rothschild, or any of the names listed above, and that would not make me part of this family anymore than converting to Judaism in 740 A.D. will make these Ashkenazis Jewish.</p><p>Please, therefore, do not automatically assume someone you see with the name Rothschild or any of the names listed above are part of the Rothschild criminal network. <strong>Furthermore and most importantly, the majority of Ashkenazi Jews are innocent and not part of this network.</strong> Check the facts out for yourself first, this article is designed to inform people who the enemy is, not single out people of a particular race or people with a particular surname, who may have nothing to do with this Rothschild criminal network.</p><div><hr></div><h4><strong>The Do Not Comply Guy clarification:</strong> </h4><p><em>Before we continue, let it be said that yes, the Rothschilds (and the Rockefellers) control massive amounts of wealth, but <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-black-nobility-part-1">whose wealth could be far greater than theirs</a></strong>? Another stack that is a must read and research. </em></p><p><em>Anyhow, let&#8217;s get on with the Rothschilds and their supposed timeline&#8230;</em></p><div><hr></div><h4><strong>ANDREW CARRINGTON HITCHCOCK &#8212; THE ROTHSCHILD TIMELINE:</strong></h4><p><strong>1743:</strong> Mayer Amschel Bauer, an Ashkenazi Jew, is born in Frankfurt, Germany, the son of Moses Amschel Bauer, a money lender and the proprietor of a counting house.</p><p>Moses Amschel Bauer places a red sign above the entrance door to his counting house. This sign is a red hexagram (which geometrically and numerically translates into the number 666) which under Rothschild instruction will end up on the Israeli flag some two centuries later.</p><p><strong>1753:</strong> Gutle Schnaper, an Ashkenazi Jew (future wife of Mayer Amschel Bauer), born to respected merchant, Wolf Salomon Schnaper.</p><p><strong>1760:</strong> During this decade Mayer Amschel Bauer works for a bank owned by the Oppenheimers&#8217; in Hanover, Germany. He is highly successful and becomes a junior partner. Whilst working at the bank he becomes acquainted with General von Estorff.</p><p>Following his father&#8217;s death, Bauer returns to Frankfurt to take over his father&#8217;s business. Bauer recognises the significance of the red hexagram and changes his name from Bauer to Rothschild, after the red hexagram or sign signifying 666 hanging over the entrance door (&#8221;Rot,&#8221; is German for, &#8220;Red,&#8221; &#8220;Schild,&#8221; is German for, &#8220;Sign&#8221;).</p><p>Now Mayer Amschel Rothschild, he discovers that General von Estorff is now attached to the court of Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau, one of the richest royal houses in Europe, which gained its&#8217; wealth by the hiring out of Hessian soldiers to foreign countries for vast profits (a practice that continues today in the form of exporting, &#8220;peacekeeping,&#8221; troops throughout the world).</p><p>He therefore makes the General&#8217;s re-acquaintance on the pretext of selling him valuable coins and trinkets at discounted prices. As he plans, Rothschild is subsequently introduced to Prince William himself who is more than pleased with discounted prices he charges for his rare coins and trinkets, and Rothschild offers him a bonus for any other business the Prince can direct his way.</p><p>Rothschild subsequently becomes close associates with Prince William, and ends up doing business with him and members of the court. He soon discovers that loaning money to governments and royalty is more profitable than loaning to individuals, as the loans are bigger and are secured by the nation&#8217;s taxes.</p><p><strong>1769:</strong> Mayer Amschel Rothschild is given permission by Prince William to hang a sign on the front of his business premises declaring that he is, &#8220;M. A. Rothschild, by appointment court factor to his serene highness, Prince William of Hanau.&#8221;</p><p><strong>1770:</strong> Mayer Amschel Rothschild draws up plans for the creation of the Illuminati and entrusts Ashkenazi Jew, Adam Weishaupt, a Crypto-Jew who was outwardly Roman Catholic, with its organization and development. The Illuminati is to be based upon the teachings of the Talmud, which is in turn, the teachings of Rabbinical Jews. It was to be called the Illuminati as this is a Luciferian term which means, keepers of the light.</p><p>Mayer Amschel Rothschild marries Gutle Schnaper.</p><p><strong>1773:</strong> Amschel Mayer Rothschild born, the first of Mayer Amschel Rothschild&#8217;s sons. He like all his brothers who follow him, will enter the family business at the age of 12.</p><p><strong>1774:</strong> Salomon Mayer Rothschild born.</p><p><strong>1776:</strong> Adam Weishaupt officially completes his organisation of the Illuminati on May 1 of this year. The purpose of the Illuminati is to divide the goyim (all non-Jews) through political, economic, social, and religious means. The opposing sides were to be armed and incidents were to be provided in order for them to: fight amongst themselves; destroy national governments; destroy religious institutions; and eventually destroy each other.</p><p>Weishaupt soon infiltrates the Continental Order of Freemasons with this Illuminati doctrine and establishes lodges of the Grand Orient to be their secret headquarters. This was all under the orders and finance of Mayer Amschel Rothschild and the concept has spread and is followed within Masonic Lodges worldwide to the present day.</p><p>Weishaupt also recruits 2,000 paid followers including the most intelligent men in the field of arts and letters, education, science, finance,and industry. They were instructed to follow the following methods in order to control people.</p><blockquote><p>1) Use monetary and sex bribery to obtain control of men already in high places, in the various levels of all governments and other fields of endeavour. Once influential persons had fallen for the lies, deceits, and temptations of the Illuminati they were to be held in bondage by application of political and other forms of blackmail, threats of financial ruin, public exposure, and fiscal harm, even death to themselves and loved members of their families.</p><p>2) The faculties of colleges and universities were to cultivate students possessing exceptional mental ability belonging to well-bred families with international leanings, and recommend them for special training in internationalism, or rather the notion that only a one-world government can put an end to recurring wars and strife. Such training was to be provided by granting scholarships to those selected by the Illuminati.</p><p>3) All influential people trapped into coming under the control of the Illuminati, plus the students who had been specially educated and trained, were to be used as agents and placed behind the scenes of all governments as experts and specialists. This was so they would advise the top executives to adopt policies which would in the long-run serve the secret plans of the Illuminati one-world conspiracy and bring about the destruction of the governments and religions they were elected or appointed to serve.</p><p>4) To obtain absolute-control of the press, at that time the only mass-communications media which distributed information to the public, so that all news and information could be slanted in order to make the masses believe that a one-world government is the only solution to our many and varied problems.</p></blockquote><p><strong>1777:</strong> Nathan Mayer Rothschild born.</p><p><strong>1784:</strong> Adam Weishaupt issues his order for the French Revolution to be started by by Maximilien Robespierre in book form. This book was written by one of Weishaupt&#8217;s associates, Xavier Zwack, and sent by courier from Frankfurt to Paris. However en route there, the courier is struck by lightning, the book detailing this plan discovered by the police, and handed over to the Bavarian authorities.</p><p>As a consequence, the Bavarian government orders the police to raid Weishaupt&#8217;s masonic lodges of the Grand Orient, and the homes of his most influential associates. Clearly, the Bavarian authorities were convinced that the book that was discovered was a very real threat by a private group of influential people, to use wars and revolutions to achieve their political ends.</p><p><strong>1785:</strong> The Bavarian government outlaw the Illuminati and close all the Bavarian lodges of the Grand Orient.</p><p>Mayer Amschel Rothschild moves his family home to a five storey house in Frankfurt which he shares with the Schiff family.</p><p><strong>1786:</strong> The Bavarian government publish the details of the Illuminati plot in a document entitled, &#8220;The Original Writings of The Order and Sect of The Illuminati.&#8221; They then send this document to all the heads of church and state throughout Europe, but sadly their warning is ignored.</p><p><strong>1788:</strong> Kalmann (Carl) Mayer Rothschild Born.</p><p><strong>1789:</strong> Due to the European ignorance of the Bavarian government&#8217;s warning, the Illuminati&#8217;s plan for a French Revolution succeeded from this year to 1793. This revolution was a bankers&#8217; dream, it established a new constitution and passed laws that forbade the Roman Church from levying tithes (taxes) and also removed its exemption from taxation.</p><p><strong>1790:</strong> Mayer Amschel Rothschild states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Let me issue and control a nation&#8217;s money and I care not who writes the laws.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1791:</strong> The Rothschilds get, &#8220;control of a nation&#8217;s money,&#8221; through Alexander Hamilton (their agent in George Washington&#8217;s cabinet) when they set up a central bank in the USA called the First Bank of the United States. This is established with a 20 year charter.</p><p><strong>1792:</strong> Jacob (James) Mayer Rothschild born.</p><p><strong>1796:</strong> Amschel Mayer Rothschild marries Eva Hanau.</p><p><strong>1798:</strong> John Robison publishes a book entitled, &#8220;Proofs of a Conspiracy Against All the Religions and Governments of Europe Carried on in the Secret Meetings of Freemasons, Illuminati and Reading Societies.&#8221; In this book, Professor Robison of the University of Edinburgh, one of the leading intellects of his time, who in 1783 was elected general secretary of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, gave details of the whole Rothschild Illuminati plot.</p><p>He advised how he had been a high degree mason in the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, and had been invited by Adam Weishaupt to Europe, where he had been given a revised copy of Weishaupt&#8217;s conspiracy. However, although he pretended to go along with it, Professor Robison did not agree with it and therefore published his aforementioned book. The book included details of the Bavarian government&#8217;s investigation into the Illuminati and the French Revolution.</p><p>That same year on July 19th, David Pappen, President of Harvard University, lectured the graduating class on the influence illuminism was having on American politics and religion.</p><p>At the age of 21, Nathan Mayer Rothschild leaves Frankfurt for England, where with a large sum of money given to him by his father, he sets up a banking house in London.</p><p><strong>1800:</strong> Salomon Mayer Rothschild marries Caroline Stern.</p><p><strong>1806:</strong> Napolean states that it is his,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;object to remove the house of Hess-Cassel from rulership and to strike it out of the list of powers.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>On hearing this, Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau, flees Germany, goes to Denmark and entrusts his fortune valued at $3,000,000 at that time to Mayer Amschel Rothschild for safekeeping.</p><p>Nathan Mayer Rothschild marries Hannah Barent Cohen the daughter of a wealthy London merchant.</p><p><strong>1808:</strong> Nathan Mayer Rothschild has his first son born Lionel Nathan de Rothschild.</p><p><strong>1810:</strong> Sir Francis Baring and Abraham Goldsmid die. This leaves Nathan Mayer Rothschild as the remaining major banker in England.</p><p>Salomon Mayer Rothschild goes to Vienna, Austria and sets up the bank, M. von Rothschild und S&#246;hne.</p><p><strong>1811:</strong> The charter for the Rothschilds Bank of the United States runs out and Congress votes against its renewal. Nathan Mayer Rothschild is not amused and he states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Either the application for renewal of the charter is granted, or the United States will find itself involved in a most disastrous war.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>However the United States stands firm and the Charter is not renewed, which causes Nathan Mayer Rothschild to issue another threat,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Teach those impudent Americans a lesson. Bring them back to colonial status.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1812:</strong> Backed by Rothschild money, and Nathan Mayer Rothschild&#8217;s orders, the British declare war on the United States. The Rothschilds plan was to cause the United States to build up such a debt in fighting this war that they would have to surrender to the Rothschilds and allow the charter for the Rothschild owned First Bank of the United States to be renewed.</p><p>Mayer Amschel Rothschild dies. In his will he lays out specific laws that the House of Rothschild were to follow: all key positions in the family business were only to be held by family members; only male members of the family were allowed to participate in the family business, this included a reported sixth secret bastard son (It is important to note that Mayer Amschel Rothschild also has five daughters, so today the spread of the Rothschild Zionist dynasty without the Rothschild name is far and wide, and Jews believe the mixed offspring of a Jewish mother is solely Jewish); the family was to intermarry with it&#8217;s first and second cousins to preserve the family fortune (of the 18 marriages by Mayer Amschel Rothschild&#8217;s grandchildren, 16 were between first cousins - a practice known today as inbreeding); no public inventory of his estate was to be published; no legal action was to be taken with regard to the value of the inheritance; the eldest son of the eldest son was to become the head of the family (this condition could only be overturned when the majority of the family agreed otherwise).</p><p>This was straightaway the case and Nathan Mayer Rothschild was elected head of the family following his father, Mayer Amschel Rothschild&#8217;s death.</p><p>Jacob (James) Mayer Rothschild goes to Paris, France to set up the bank, de Rothschild Fr&#232;res.</p><p>Nathaniel de Rothschild, the son in law of Jacob (James) Mayer Rothschild, born.</p><p><strong>1814:</strong> With regard to the $3,000,000 Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau had entrusted to Mayer Amschel Rothschild for safekeeping, for an account of what happened next we turn to the Jewish Encyclopaedia, 1905 edition, Volume 10, page 494, which states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;According to legend this money was hidden away in wine casks, and, escaping the search of Napoleon&#8217;s soldiers when they entered Frankfurt, was restored intact in the same casks in 1814, when the elector (Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau) returned to the electorate (Germany). The facts are somewhat less romantic, and more businesslike.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>This last line indicates the money was never returned by Rothschild to Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau. The encyclopaedia goes on to state,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Nathan Mayer Rothschild invested this $3,000,000 in, gold from the East India Company knowing that it would be needed for Wellington&#8217;s peninsula campaign.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>On the stolen money Nathan made,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;no less than four profits:</p><p>i) On the sale of Wellington&#8217;s paper which he bought at 50 cents on the dollar and collected at par;<br>ii) on the sale of gold to Wellington;<br>iii) on its repurchase; and<br>iv) on forwarding it to Portugal.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1815:</strong> The five Rothschild brothers work to supply gold to both Wellington&#8217;s army (through Nathan in England) and Napoleon&#8217;s army (through Jacob in France), and begin their policy of funding both sides in wars. The Rothschilds love wars because they are massive generators of risk free debt.</p><p>This is because they are guaranteed by the government of a country, and therefore the efforts of the population of that country, and it doesn&#8217;t matter if that country loses the war because the loans are given on the guarantee that the victor will honour the debts of the vanquished.</p><p>Whilst the Rothschilds are funding both sides in this war, they use the banks they have spread out across Europe to give them the opportunity to set up an unrivalled postal service network of secret routes and fast couriers. The post these couriers carried was to be opened up by these couriers and their details given to the Rothschilds so they always were one step ahead of current events.</p><p>Furthermore, these Rothschild couriers were the only merchants allowed to pass through the English and French blockades. It was these couriers who also kept Nathan Mayer Rothschild up to date with how the war was going so he could use that intelligence to buy and sell from his position on the stock exchange in accordance with that intelligence.</p><p>One of Rothschild&#8217;s couriers was a man named Rothworth. When the outcome of the Battle of Waterloo was won by the British, Rothworth took off for the Channel and was able to deliver this news to Nathan Mayer Rothschild, a full 24 hours before Wellington&#8217;s own courier.</p><p>At that time British bonds were called consuls and they were traded on the floor of the stock exchange. Nathan Mayer Rothschild instructed all his workers on the floor to start selling consuls. The made all the other traders believe that the British had lost the war so they started selling frantically.</p><p>Therefore the consuls plummeted in value which was when Nathan Mayer Rothschild discreetly instructed his workers to purchase all the consuls they could lay their hands on.</p><p>When news came through that the British had actually won the war, the consuls went up to a level even higher than before the war ended leaving Nathan Mayer Rothschild with a return of approximately 20 to 1 on his investment.</p><p>This gave the Rothschild family complete control of the British economy, now the financial centre of the world following Napolean&#8217;s defeat, and forced England to set up a new Bank of England, which Nathan Mayer Rothschild controlled.</p><p>Interestingly 100 years later the New York Times would run a story stating that Nathan Mayer Rothschild&#8217;s grandson had attempted to secure a court order to suppress publication of a book which had this insider trading story in it. The Rothschild family claimed the story was untrue and libellous, but the court denied the Rothschilds request and ordered the family to pay all court costs.</p><p>Back to 1815, this is the year Nathan Mayer Rothschild makes his famous statement,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;I care not what puppet is placed upon the throne of England to rule the Empire on which the sun never sets. The man who controls Britain&#8217;s money supply controls the British Empire, and I control the British money supply.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>He would go onto brag that in the 17 years he had been in England he had increased the &#163;20,000 stake given to him by his father, 2500 times to &#163;50 million.</p><p>The Rothschilds also use their control of the Bank of England to replace the method of shipping gold from country to country and instead used their five banks spread across Europe to set up a system of paper debits and credits, the banking system of today.</p><p>By the end of this century, a period of time that was known as the, &#8220;Age of the Rothschilds,&#8221; it is estimated that the Rothschild family controlled half the wealth of the world.</p><p>However something that did not go well for the Rothschilds this year was the Congress of Vienna, which started in September, 1814 and concluded in June of this year. The reason for this Congress of Vienna, was for the Rothschilds to create a form of world government, to give them complete political control over much of the civilized world.</p><p>Many of the European governments were in debt to the Rothschilds, so they figured they could use that as a bargaining tool. However the Tsar Alexander I of Russia, who had not succumbed to a Rothschild central bank, would not go along with the plan, so the Rothschild world government plan failed.</p><p>Enraged by this, Nathan Mayer Rothschild swore that some day he or his descendants would destroy the Tsar Alexander I&#8217;s entire family and descendants. Unfortunately he was true to his word and 102 years later Rothschild funded Bolsheviks would act upon that promise.</p><p>Interestingly, world government fanatic and Ashkenazi Jew, Henry Kissinger, did his doctoral dissertation on the Congress of Vienna.</p><p><strong>1816:</strong> The American Congress passes a bill permitting yet another Rothschild dominated central bank, which gives the Rothschilds control of the American money supply again. This is called the Second Bank of the United States and is given a twenty year charter. The British war against the America therefore ends with the deaths of thousands of British and American soldiers, but the Rothschilds get their bank.</p><p><strong>1818:</strong> Following the French securing massive loans in 1817 in order to help rebuild after their disastrous defeat at Waterloo, Rothschild agents bought vast amounts of French government bonds causing their value to increase.</p><p>On November 5th they dumped the lot on the open market causing their value to plummet and France to go into a financial panic. The Rothschilds then stepped in to take control of the French money supply. This was the same year the Rothschilds were able to loan &#163;5,000,000 to the Prussian government.</p><p><strong>1821:</strong> Kalmann (Carl) Mayer Rothschild was sent to Naples, Italy. He would end up doing a lot of business with the Vatican and Pope Gregory XVI subsequently conferred upon him the Order of St. George.</p><p>Also, whenever the Pope received Kalmann, he would give him his hand rather than the customary toe to kiss, which showed the extent of Kalmann&#8217;s power over the Vatican.</p><p><strong>1822:</strong> The emperor of Austria made the five Rothschild brothers Barons. Nathan Mayer Rothschild chose not to take up the title.</p><p><strong>1823:</strong> The Rothschilds take over the financial operations of the Catholic Church, worldwide.</p><p><strong>1827:</strong> Sir Walter Scott publishes his nine volume set, The life of Napolean and in volume two he states that the French Revolution was planned by the Illuminati (Adam Weishaupt) and was financed by the money changers of Europe (The Rothschilds).</p><p><strong>1832:</strong> President Andrew Jackson (the 7th President of the United States from 1829 to 1837), runs the campaign for his second term in office under the slogan, &#8220;Jackson And No Bank!&#8221; This is in reference to his plan to take the control of the American money system to benefit the American people, not for the profiteering of the Rothschilds.</p><p><strong>1833:</strong> President Andrew Jackson starts removing the government&#8217;s deposits from the Rothschild controlled, Second Bank of the United States and instead deposits them into banks directed by democratic bankers.</p><p>This causes the Rothschilds to panic and so they do what they do best, contract the money supply causing a depression. President Jackson knows what they are up to and later states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;You are a den of thieves vipers, and I intend to rout you out, and by the Eternal God, I will rout you out.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1834: </strong>The Italian revolutionary leader, Guiseppe Mazzini, is selected by the Illuminati to direct their revolutionary program throughout the world and would serve in that capacity until he died in 1872.</p><p><strong>1835:</strong> On January 30, an assassin tries to shoot President Jackson, but miraculously both of the assassin&#8217;s pistols misfired. President Jackson would later claim that he knew the Rothschilds were responsible for that attempted assassination. He is not the only one, the assassin, Richard Lawrence, who was found not guilty by reason of insanity, later bragged that powerful people in Europe had hired him and promised to protect him if he were caught.</p><p>The Rothschilds acquire the rights in the Almad&#233;n quicksilver mines in Spain. This was at the time the biggest concession in the world and as quicksilver was a vital component in the refining of gold or silver this gave the Rothschilds a virtual world monopoly.</p><p><strong>1836:</strong> Following his years of fighting against the Rothschilds and their central bank in America, President Andrew Jackson finally succeeds in throwing the Rothschilds central bank out of America, when the bank&#8217;s charter is not renewed. It would not be until 1913 that the Rothschilds would be able to set up their third central bank in America, the Federal Reserve, and to ensure no mistakes are made, this time they will put one of their own bloodline, Jacob Schiff, in charge of the project.</p><p>Nathan Mayer Rothschild dies and the control of his bank, N.

Lionel De Rothschild refused to do this as he was Jewish and his seat in parliament remained empty for 11 years until new oaths were allowed. He must have been an invaluable representative for his constituency, bearing in mind he could never vote on any bill as he never entered parliament! I wonder how he managed to keep his parliamentary seat for 11 years?</p><p><strong>1848:</strong> Karl Marx, an Ashkenazi Jew, publishes, &#8220;The Communist Manifesto.&#8221; Interestingly at the same time as he is working on this, Karl Ritter of Frankfurt University was writing the antithesis which would form the basis for Freidrich Wilhelm Nietzsche&#8217;s, &#8220;Nietzscheanism.&#8221; This Nietzecheanism was later developed into Fascism and then into Nazism and was used to forment the first and second world wars.</p><p>Marx, Ritter, and Nietzsche were all funded and under the instruction of the Rothschilds. The idea was that those who direct the overall conspiracy could use the differences in those two so-called ideologies to enable them to divide larger and larger factions of the human race into opposing camps so that they could be armed and then brainwashed into fighting and destroying each other, and particularly, to destroy all political and religious institutions. The same plan put forward by Weishaupt in 1776.</p><p>Eva Hanau, Amschel Mayer Rothschild&#8217;s wife dies.</p><p><strong>1849:</strong> Gutle Schnaper, Mayer Amschel Rothschild&#8217;s wife dies.

As these large banks were heavily under the influence of the Rothschilds, they offer him a deal they know he cannot accept, 24% to 36% interest on all monies loaned.</p><p>Lincoln is very angry about this high level of interest and so he prints his own debt free money and informs the public that this is now legal tender for both public and private debts.</p><p><strong>1862:</strong> By April $449,338,902 worth of Lincoln&#8217;s debt free money has been printed and distributed. He states of this,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;We gave the people of this republic the greatest blessing they ever had, their own paper money to pay their own debts.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>That same year The Times of London publishes a story containing the following statement,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;If that mischievous financial policy, which had its origin in the North American Republic, should become indurated down to a fixture, then that government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off debts and be without a debt. It will have all the money necessary to carry on its commerce.</p><p>It will become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of civilized governments of the world. The brains and the wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1863:</strong> President Abraham Lincoln discovers the Tsar of Russia, Alexander II (1855 &#8211; 1881), was having problems with the Rothschilds as well as he was refusing their continual attempts to set up a central bank in Russia. The Tsar then gives President Lincoln some unexpected help.</p><p>The Tsar issued orders that if either England or France actively intervened in the American Civil War, and help the South, Russia would consider such action a declaration of war, and take the side of President Lincoln. To show that he wasn&#8217;t messing about, he sent part of his Pacific Fleet to port in San Francisco and another part to New York.</p><p>The Rothschild banking house in Naples, Italy, C.

Of the two, the one in my rear is my greatest foe.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Later that year, on April 14, President Lincoln is assassinated, less than two months before the end of the American Civil War.</p><p>Following a brief training period in the Rothschilds London Bank, Jacob Schiff, a Rothschild, born in their house in Frankfurt, arrives in America at the age of 18, with instructions and the finance necessary to buy into a banking house there. The purpose of this was to carry out the following tasks.</p><blockquote><p>1. Gain control of America&#8217;s money system through the establishment of a central bank.<br>2. Find desirable men, who for a price, would be willing to serve as stooges for the Illuminati and promote them into high places in the federal government, the Congress, Supreme Court, and all the federal agencies.<br>3.

He is the last of Mayer Amschel Rothschild&#8217;s sons to die.</p><p><strong>1870:</strong> Nathaniel de Rothschild dies.</p><p><strong>1871:</strong> An American General named, Albert Pike, who had been enticed into the Illuminati by Guissepe Mazzini, completes his military blueprint for three world wars and various revolutions throughout the world, culminating into moving this great conspiracy into its final stage.</p><p>The first world war is to be fought for the purpose of destroying the Tsar in Russia,as promised by Nathan Mayer Rothschild in 1815. The Tsar is to be replaced with communism which is to be used to attack religions, predominantly Christianity. The differences between the British and German empires are to be used to forment this war.</p><p>The second world war is to be used to forment the controversy between facism and political zionism with the slaughter of Jews in Germany a lynchpin in bringing hatred against the German people. This is designed to destroy fascism (which the Rothschilds created) and increase the power of political zionism. This war is also designed to increase the power of communism to the level that it equalled that of united Christendom.</p><p>The third world war is to be played out by stirring up hatred of the Muslim world for the purposes of playing the Islamic world and the political zionists off against one another. Whilst this is going on, the remaining nations would be forced to fight themselves into a state of mental, physical, spiritual and economic exhaustion.</p><p>On August 15th of this year, Albert Pike writes a letter (now catalogued in the British Museum) to Guiseppe Mazzini in which he states the following,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;We shall unleash the nihilists and the atheists and we shall provoke a great social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to all nations the effect of absolute atheism; the origins of savagery and of most bloody turmoil.</p><p>Then everywhere, the people will be forced to defend themselves against the world minority of the world revolutionaries and will exterminate those destroyers of civilization and the multitudes disillusioned with Christianity whose spirits will be from that moment without direction and leadership and anxious for an ideal, but without knowledge where to send its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer brought finally out into public view.</p><p>A manifestation which will result from a general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and Atheism; both conquered and exterminated at the same time.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Pike, who having been elected as Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry&#8217;s Southern Jurisdiction in 1859, was the most powerful Freemason in America. He would retain that post for 32 years until his death in 1891. He also published a book on the subject in 1872 entitled, &#8220;Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry,&#8221; in which he candidly states the following,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;LUCIFER, the Light-bearer! Strange and mysterious name to give to the Spirit of Darknesss! Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the Light, and with its splendors intolerable blinds feeble, sensual or selfish Souls? Doubt it not!&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1872:</strong> Prior to Guiseppe Mazzini&#8217;s death this year, he makes another revolutionary leader named Adrian Lemmy his successor. Lemmy will be subsequently succeeded by Lenin and Trotsky, then by Stalin. The revolutionary activities of all these men are financed by the Rothschilds.</p><p><strong>1873:</strong> The loss making Rio Tinto copper mines in Spain, are purchased by a group of foreign financiers including the Rothschilds. These mines represented Europe&#8217;s largest source of copper.</p><p><strong>1875:</strong> On January 1 of this year Jacob Schiff, now Solomon Loeb&#8217;s son-in-law after marrying his daughter, Teresa, takes control of the banking house, Kuhn, Loeb &amp; Co. He goes on to finance John D. Rockefeller&#8217;s Standard Oil Company, Edward R. Harriman&#8217;s Railroad Empire, and Andrew Carnegie&#8217;s Steel Empire. This is all with Rothschild money.</p><p>He then identifies the other largest bankers in America at that time. They are, J.P. Morgan who controls Wall Street, and the Drexels and the Biddles of Philadelphia. All the other financiers, big and little, danced to the music of those three houses. Schiff then gets the European Rothschilds to set up European branches of these three large banks on the understanding that Schiff, and therefore Rothschild, is to be the boss of banking in New York and therefore America.</p><p>N M Rothschild &amp; Sons undertake a share issue to raise capital for the first channel tunnel project to link France to England, with half of its capital coming from the Rothschild owned Compagnie du Chemin de Fer du Nord.</p><p>This year Lionel De Rothschild also loans Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli the finance for the British government to purchase the shares in the Suez Canal, from Khedive Said of Egypt. This was done as the Rothschilds needed this access route to be held by a government they controlled, so they could use that government&#8217;s military to protect their huge business interests in the Middle East.</p><p><strong>1876:</strong> Otto von Bismarck states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;The division of the United States into two federations of equal force was decided long before the civil war by the high financial power of Europe. These bankers were afraid that the United States, if they remained in one block and as one nation, would attain economical and financial independence, which would upset their financial domination over the world.</p><p>The voice of the Rothschilds predominated. They foresaw the tremendous booty if they could substitute two feeble democracies, indebted to the financiers, to the vigorous Republic, confident and self-providing.</p><p>Therefore they started their emissaries in order to exploit the question of slavery and thus dig an abyss between the two parts of the Republic.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1879:</strong> Lionel de Rothschild dies.</p><p><strong>1880:</strong> Rothschild agents begin formenting a series of pogroms predominantly in Russia, but also in Poland,<strong> </strong>Bulgaria and Romania. These pogroms resulted in the slaughter of thousands of innocent Jews, causing approximately 2 million to flee, mainly to New York, but also to Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston and Los Angeles.</p><p>The reason these pogroms were initiated, was to create a large Jewish base in America, who when they arrived, would be educated to register as Democrat voters. Some twenty years later, this would result in in a massive Democratic power base in the United States and be used to elect Rothschild front men such as Woodrow Wilson, to the Presidency, to carry out the bidding of the Rothschilds.</p><p><strong>1881:</strong> President James A. Garfield (The 20th President of the United States who lasted only 100 Days) states two weeks before he is assassinated,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Whoever controls the volume of money in our country is absolute master of all industry and commerce&#8230;and when you realize that the entire system is very easily controlled, one way or another, by a few powerful men at the top, you will not have to be told how periods of inflation and depression originate.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Edmond James de Rothschild has a son Maurice de Rothschild.</p><p><strong>1883:</strong> After 6,000 feet of tunnel in the channel tunnel project being excavated, the British government halt the project citing the fact that it would be a threat to Britain&#8217;s security.</p><p><strong>1885:</strong> Nathaniel Rothschild, son of Lionel De Rothschild, becomes the first Jewish peer and is takes the title of Lord Rothschild.</p><p><strong>1886:</strong> The French Rothschild bank, de Rothschild Fr&#232;res obtains substantial amounts of Russia&#8217;s oil fields and forms the Caspian and Black Sea Petroleum Company, which quickly becomes the world&#8217;s second largest oil producer.</p><p><strong>1887:</strong> Opium trafficker in China, Edward Albert Sassoon, marries Aline Caroline de Rothschild, the grand-daughter of Jacob (James) Mayer Rothschild. Aline Caroline&#8217;s father, Gustave, together with his brother, Alphonse, took over the Rothschild&#8217;s french arm following their father Jacob&#8217;s death.</p><p>The Rothschilds finance the amalgamation of the Kimberley diamond mines in South Africa. They subsequently become the biggest shareholders of this company, De Beers, and mine precious stones in Africa and India.</p><p><strong>1888:</strong> No&#233;mie Halphen, future wife of Maurice de Rothschild born.</p><p><strong>1891:</strong> The British Labour Leader makes the following statement on the subject of the Rothschilds,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;This blood-sucking crew has been the cause of untold mischief and misery in Europe during the present century, and has piled up its prodigious wealth chiefly through fomenting wars between States which ought never to have quarrelled.</p><p>Whenever there is trouble in Europe, wherever rumours of war circulate and men&#8217;s minds are distraught with fear of change and calamity you may be sure that a hook-nosed Rothschild is at his games somewhere near the region of the disturbance.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Comments like this worry the Rothschilds and towards the end of the 1800&#8217;s they purchase Reuters news agency so they can have some control of the media.</p><p><strong>1895:</strong> Edmond James de Rothschild the youngest son of Jacob (James) Mayer Rothschild visits Palestine and subsequently supplies the funds to found the first Jewish colonies there, this is to further their long term objective of creating a Rothschild owned country.</p><p><strong>1897:</strong> The Rothschilds found the Zionist Congress to promote Zionism (a political movement with the sole aim of moving all Jews into a singularly Jewish nation state) and arrange its first meeting in Munich. However due to extreme opposition from local Jews, who are quite happy where they are, this meeting has to be moved to Basle, Switzerland and takes place on 29 August. The meeting is chaired by Ashkenazi Jew, Theodor Herzl, who would state in his diaries,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;It is essential that the sufferings of Jews&#8230;.become worse&#8230;.this will assist in realization of our plans&#8230;.I have an excellent idea&#8230;.I shall induce anti-Semites to liquidate Jewish wealth&#8230;.The anti-Semites will assist us thereby in that they will strengthen the persecution and oppression of Jews. The anti-Semites shall be our best friends.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Herzl is subsequently elected President of the Zionist Organisation which adopts the, &#8220;Rothschild Red Hexagram or Sign,&#8221; as the Zionist flag which 51 years later will end up as the flag of Israel.</p><p>Edward Henry Harriman becomes a director of the Union Pacific Railroad and goes on to take control of the Southern Pacific Railroad. This is all financed by the Rothschilds.</p><p><strong>1898:</strong> Ferdinand de Rothschild dies.</p><p><strong>1901:</strong> The Jews from the colonies set up in Palestine by Edmond James de Rothschild, send a delegation to him which tell him,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;If you wish to save the Yishuv (The Jewish settlement) first take your hands from it, and&#8230;for once permit the colonists to have the possibility of correcting for themselves what needs correcting.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Edmond James de Rothschild is very angry about this and states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;I created the Yishuv, I alone. Therefore no men, neither colonists nor organisations have the right to interfere in my plans.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>The Rothschild banking house in Frankfurt, Germany, M. A. von Rothschild und S&#246;hne, closes as there is no male Rothschild heir to take it on.</p><p><strong>1902:</strong> Philippe de Rothschild born.</p><p><strong>1905:</strong> A group of Rothschild backed Zionist Jews led by Georgi Apollonovich Gapon attempt to overthrow the Tsar in Russia in a Communist Coup. They fail and are forced to flee Russia only to be given refuge in Germany.</p><p>The Jewish Encyclopaedia (Vol. 2, p.497) states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;It is a somewhat curious sequel to the attempt to set up a Catholic competitor to the Rothschilds that at the present time the latter are the guardians of the papal treasure.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1906:</strong> The Rothschilds claim that due to growing instability in the region and increasing competition from Rockefeller (the Rockefeller family are Rothschild descendants through a female bloodline) owned Standard Oil, this is why they sell their Caspian and Black Sea Petroleum Company to Royal Dutch and Shell. This is another example of the Rothschilds trying to hide their true wealth.</p><p><strong>1907:</strong> Rothschild, Jacob Schiff, the head of Kuhn, Loeb and Co., in a speech to the New York Chamber of Commerce, warns that,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Unless we have a Central Bank with adequate control of credit resources, this country is going to undergo the most severe and far reaching money panic in its history.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Suddenly America finds itself in the middle of another typical run of the mill Rothschild engineered financial crisis, which ruins as usual ruins the lives of millions of innocent people throughout America and makes billions for the Rothschilds.</p><p><strong>1909:</strong> Jacob Schiff founds the National Advancement for the Association of the Coloured People (NAACP). This was done to incite black people into roiting, looting and other forms of disorder, in order to cause a rift between the black and white communities. Jewish historian, Howard Sachar, states the following in his book, &#8220;A History of the Jews in America,&#8221;</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;In 1914, Professor Emeritus Joel Spingarn of Columbia University became chairman of the NAACP and recruited for its board such Jewish leaders as Jacob Schiff, Jacob Billikopf, and Rabbi Stephen Wise.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Other Ashkenazi Jew co-founders included Julius Rosenthal, Lillian Wald and Rabbi Emil G. Hirsch. It was not until 1920 that the NAACP appointed its first black president, James Weldon Johnson.</p><p>Maurice de Rothschild marries Ashkenazi Jew, No&#233;mie Halphen.</p><p><strong>1911:</strong> Werner Sombart, in his book, &#8220;The Jews and Modern Capitalism,&#8221; stated that from 1820 on, it was the,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Age of the Rothschild,&#8221; and concluded that there was, &#8220;Only one power in Europe, and that is Rothschild.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1912:</strong> In the December issue of, &#8220;Truth,&#8221; magazine, George R. Conroy states of banker Jacob Schiff,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Mr Schiff is head of the great private banking house of Kuhn, Loeb, and co, which represents the Rothschilds interests on this side of the Atlantic.</p><p>He has been described as financial strategist and has been for years the financial minister of the great impersonal power known as Standard Oil.</p><p>He was hand in glove with the Harrimans, the Goulds, and the Rockefellers in all their railroad enterprises and has become the dominant power in the railroad and financial power of America.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1913:</strong> On March 4, Woodrow Wilson is elected the 28th President of the United States. Shortly after he is inaugurated, he is visited in the White House by Ashkenazi Jew, Samuel Untermyer, of law firm, Guggenheim, Untermyer, and Marshall, who tries to blackmail him for the sum of $40,000 in relation to an affair Wilson had whilst he was a professor at Princeton University, with a fellow professor&#8217;s wife.</p><p>President Wilson does not have the money, so Untermyer volunteers to pay the $40,000 out of his own pocket to the woman Wilson had had the affair with, on the condition that Wilson promise to appoint to the first vacancy on the United States Supreme Court a nominee to be recommended to President Wilson by Untermyer. Wilson agrees to this.</p><p>Jacob Schiff sets up the Anti Defamation League (ADL) in the United States. This organisation is formed to slander anyone who questions or challenges the Rothschild global conspiracy as, &#8220;anti-semitic.&#8221;</p><p>Strangely enough, the same year that they do this they also set up their last and current central bank in America, the Federal Reserve. Congressman Charles Lindbergh stated following the passing of the Federal Reserve Act on December 23,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;The Act establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President signs this Bill, the invisible government of the monetary power will be legalized.......The greatest crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking and currency bill.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>It is important to note that the Federal Reserve is a private company, it is neither Federal nor does it have any Reserve. It is conservatively estimated that profits exceed $150 billion per year and the Federal Reserve has never once in its history published accounts.</p><p><strong>1914: </strong>The start of World War I. In this war, the German Rothschilds loan money to the Germans, the British Rothschilds loan money to the British, and the French Rothschilds loan money to the French.</p><p>Futhermore, the Rothschilds have control of the three European news agencies, Wolff (est. 1849) in Germany, Reuters (est. 1851) in England, and Havas (est. 1835) in France.</p><p>The Rothschilds use Wolff to manipulate the German people into a fervour for war. From around this time, the Rothschilds are rarely reported in the media, because they own the media.</p><p><strong>1916:</strong> On June 4, Ashkenazi Jew, Louis Dembitz Brandeis is appointed to the Supreme Court of the United States by President Wilson as per his agreed blackmail payment to Samuel Untermyer some three years earlier. Justice Brandeis is also the elected leader of the Executive Committee for Zionist Affairs, a position he has held since 1914.</p><p>The middle of World War I. Germany were winning the war as they were being financed by the Rothschilds to a greater extent than France, Italy and England, because Rothschilds, did not want to support the Tsar in Russia, and of course Russia was on the same side as France, Italy and England.</p><p>Then a significant event occurred. Germany, although they were winning the war and not one foreign soldier had set foot on their soil, offered armistice to Britain with no requirement of reparations. The Rothschilds were anxious to make sure this didn&#8217;t happen as they were expecting to make far more money off this war, so they played another card they had up their sleeve.</p><p>Whilst the British were considering Germany&#8217;s offer, Rothschild agent Louis Brandeis sends a Zionist delegation from America to Britain to promise to bring America into the war on the side of the British, provided the British agree to give the land of Palestine to the Rothschilds.</p><p>The Rothschilds wanted Palestine for the following reason. They had great business interests in the far east and desired their own state in that area along with their own military which they could use as an aggressor to any state that threatened those interests.</p><p>The British subsequently agree to the deal for Palestine and the Zionists in London contact their counterparts in America and inform them of this fact. Suddenly all the major newspapers in America that up to that point had been pro-German turned on Germany running propaganda pieces such as: German soldiers were killing Red Cross Nurses; German soldiers were cutting off babies hands, etc, in order to manipulate the American public against the Germans.</p><p>This same year, President Woodrow Wilson, ran a re-election campaign under the slogan, &#8220;Re-Elect The Man Who Will Keep Your Sons Out Of The War.&#8221;</p><p>On December 12, Germany and her allies offer peace terms to end the war.</p><p><strong>1917: </strong>As a result of Germany&#8217;s offer of peace the Rothschild war machine goes into overdrive in America, spreading propaganda which leads to President Wilson under the instructions of American Zionist leader and Supreme Court Justice, Louis Dembitz Brandeis, reneging on his promise to the electorate and taking America into the first world war on April 6.</p><p>As per the Rothschild Zionist promise to the British, to take America into the war, they decide they want something in writing from the British to prove that they will uphold their side of the bargain. The British Foreign Secretary, Arthur James Balfour therefore drafts a letter which is commonly known as the, &#8220;Balfour Declaration,&#8221; which is reprinted below.</p><blockquote><p>Foreign Office</p><p>November 2nd, 1917</p><p>Dear Lord Rothschild,</p><p>I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty&#8217;s Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by, the Cabinet.</p><p>His Majesty&#8217;s Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.</p><p>I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation.</p><p>Yours sincerely,</p><p>Arthur James Balfour</p></blockquote><p>The Rothschilds order the execution by the Bolsheviks they control, of Tsar Nicholas II and his entire family in Russia, even though the Tsar had already abdicated on March 2. This is both to get control of the country and an act of revenge for Tsar Alexander I blocking their world government plan in 1815 at the Congress Of Vienna, and Tsar Alexander II siding with President Abraham Lincoln in 1864.</p><p>It is extremely important for them to slaughter the entire family including women and children in order to make good on the promise to do so made by Nathan Mayer Rothschild in 1815. It is designed to show the world what happens if you ever attempt to cross the Rothschilds.</p><p>U.S. Congressman Oscar Callaway informs Congress that J. P. Morgan is a Rothschild front and has taken control of the American media industry. He states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;In March, 1915, the J.P. Morgan interests, the steel, shipbuilding, and powder interest, and their subsidiary organizations, got together 12 men high up in the newspaper world and employed them to select the most influential newspapers in the United States and sufficient number of them to control generally the policy of the daily press...</p><p>...They found it was only necessary to purchase the control of 25 of the greatest papers...An agreement was reached. The policy of the papers was bought, to be paid for by the month, an editor was furnished for each paper to properly supervise and edit information regarding the questions of preparedness, militarism, financial policies, and other things of national and international nature considered vital to the interests of the purchasers.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1919: </strong>In January, Ashkenazi Jews, Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg, are killed as they attempt to lead another Rothschild funded Communist coup, this time in Berlin, Germany.</p><p>The Versailles peace conference is held to decide reparations that the Germans need to pay to the victors following the end of the first world war. A delegation of 117 Zionists headed up by Ashkenazi Jew, Bernard Baruch, bring up the subject of the promise of Palestine for them. At this point the Germans realised why America had turned on them and under whose influence, the Rothschilds.</p><p>The Germans, naturally, felt they had been betrayed by the Zionists. This is because, at the time the Rothschilds made their deal with Britain for Palestine, in exchange for bringing America into the war, Germany was the most friendly country in the world towards the Jews, indeed the German Emancipation Edict of 1822 guaranteed Jews in Germany all civil rights enjoyed by Germans.</p><p>Also, Germany was the only country in Europe which did not place restrictions on Jews, even giving them refuge when they had to flee from Russia after their first attempted Communist coup failed there in 1905.</p><p>Nevertheless, the Rothschilds had held up their side of the bargain to spill the blood of millions of innocents and as a result, Palestine is confirmed as a Jewish homeland, and whilst its handover to the Rothschilds takes place it is to remain under the control of Britain as the Rothschilds control Britain. At that time less than one percent of the population of Palestine was Jewish. Interestingly, the host of the Versailles peace conference is its boss, Baron Edmond de Rothschild.</p><p>The Versailles peace conference is also used as an attempt by the Rothschilds to set up a world government under the pretext of ending all wars (which they create). This was called the, &#8220;League of Nations.&#8221; Fortunately not enough countries accepted it and so it soon died.</p><p>On March 29th The Times of London reports on the Bolsheviks in Russia,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;One of the curious features of the Bolshevist movement is the high percentage of non Russian elements among its leaders. Of the twenty or thirty commissaries, or leaders, who provide the central machinery of the Bolshevist movement, not less than 75% were Jews.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>It is reported that the Rothschilds were angry with the Russians because they were not prepared to allow them to form a central bank within their nation. They therefore gathered groups of Jewish spies and sent them into Russia to drum up a revolution for the benefit of the common man, which was actually a takeover of Russia by a Rothschild controlled satanic elite.</p><p>These Jewish spies were, in age old deceptive Ashkenazi tradition, given Russian names, for example Trotsky was a member of the first group and his original name was Bronstein. These groups were sent to areas throughout Russia to incite riots and rebellion.</p><p>The Jewish Post International Edition, week ending January 24th 1991, confirms Vladimir Lenin was Jewish. Lenin is also on record as having stated,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;The establishment of a central bank is 90% of communizing a nation.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>These Jewish, Rothschild funded Bolsheviks would go on in the course of history to slaughter 60 million Christians and Non-Jews in Soviet controlled territory. Indeed the author Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in his work, &#8220;Gulag Archipelago, Vol 2,&#8221; affirms that Zionist Jews <strong>created and administered the organized Soviet concentration camp system</strong> in which these tens of millions of Christians and Non-Jews died.</p><p>On page 79 of this book he even names the administrators of this the greatest killing machine in the history of the world. They are Aron Solts, Yakov Rappoport, Lazar Kogan, Matvei Berman, Genrikh Yagoda, and Naftaly Frenkel. All six are Zionist Jews. In 1970 Solzhenitsyn would be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for literature.</p><p>N. M. Rothschild &amp; Sons&#8217; are given a permanent role to fix the world&#8217;s daily gold price. This takes place in the City of London offices, daily at 1100 hours, in the same room until 2004.</p><p><strong>1920:</strong> Winston Churchill (whose mother, Jenny (Jacobson) Jerome, was Jewish &#8211; meaning he is Jewish under Ashkenazi law as he was born of a Jewish mother) writes in an article in the Illustrated Sunday Herald, dated February 8th,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;From the days of Illuminati leader Weishaupt, to those of Karl Marx, to those of Trotsky, this worldwide conspiracy has been steadily growing.</p><p>And now at last this band of extraordinary personalities from the underworld of the great cities of Europe and America, have gripped the Russian people by the hair of their heads and become the undisputed masters of that enormous empire.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1921: </strong>Under the orders of Jacob Schiff the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is founded by Ashkenazi Jews, Bernard Baruch and Colonel Edward Mandell House. Schiff gave his orders prior to his death in 1920, as he knew an organisation in America needed to be set up to select politicians to carry on the Rothschild conspiracy,and the formation of the CFR was actually agreed in a meeting on May 30, 1919 at the Hotel Majestic in Paris, France.</p><p>The CFR membership at the start was approximately 1000 people in the United States. This membership included the heads of virtually every industrial empire in America, all the American based international bankers, and the heads of all their tax free foundations. In essence all those people who would provide the capital required for anyone who wished to run for Congress, the Senate or the Presidency.</p><p>The first job of the CFR was to gain control of the press. This task was given to John D. Rockefeller who set up a number of national news magazines such as Life, and Time. He financed Samuel Newhouse to buy up and establish a chain of newspapers all across the country, and Eugene Meyer also who would go on to buy up many publications such as the Washington Post, Newsweek, ant The Weekly Magazine.</p><p>The CFR also needed to gate control of radio, television and the motion picture industry. This task was split amongst the international bankers from, Kuhn Loeb, Goldman Sachs, the Warburgs, and the Lehmanns.</p><p><strong>1925:</strong> This year&#8217;s Jewish Encyclopaedia, states of the existence of Ashkenazi Jews (who represent approximately 90% of so-called world Jewry), with the startling admission that the so called enemy of the Jews, Esau (also known as Edom, see Genesis 36:1), now actually represents the Jewish race, when on page 42 of Volume V it is stated,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Edom is in modern Jewry.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>So what they&#8217;re basically saying is that these Ashkenazi Jews, who represent 90% of the so-called Jewish population, are actually gentiles or goyim themselves.</p><p><strong>1926:</strong> N. M. Rothschild &amp; Sons refinance the Underground Electric Railways Company of London Ltd which has a controlling interest in the entire London Underground transport system.</p><p>Maurice de Rothschild has a son, Edmond de Rothschild.</p><p><strong>1929: </strong>The Rothschilds crash the United States economy by contracting the money supply.</p><p><strong>1930:</strong> The first Rothschild world bank, the, &#8220;Bank for International Settlements (BIS),&#8221; is established in Basle, Switzerland. The same place as where 33 years earlier the first ever World Zionist Congress was held.</p><p><strong>1933:</strong> On January 30, Adolf Hitler becomes Chancellor of Germany. He drives Jews, many of which were Communist out of Governmental positions within Germany. As a result of this, in July, the Jews hold a World Conference in Amsterdam during which they demand that Hitler re-instate every Jew back to his former position.</p><p>Hitler refuses and as a result of this, Samuel Untermyer, the Ashkenazi Jew who blackmailed President Wilson,and is now the head of the American delegation and the president of the whole conference, returns to the United States, and makes a speech on radio which was transcribed in the From the New York Times, Monday, August 7, 1933. In the speech he made the following statements,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;...the Jews are the aristocrats of the world...Our campaign is...the economic boycott against all German goods, shipping and services...What we are proposing...is to prosecute a purely defensive economic boycott that will undermine the Hitler regime and bring the German people to their senses by destroying their export trade on which their very existence depends...</p><p>...Each of you, Jew and Gentile alike...must refuse to deal with any merchant or shopkeeper who sells any German-made goods or who patronizes German ships or shipping.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>As two thirds of Germany&#8217;s food supply had to be imported, and could only be imported with the proceeds of what they exported, if Germany could not export, two thirds of Germany&#8217;s population would starve, as there would be not enough food for more than one third of the population.</p><p>As a result of this boycott, Jews throughout America, would protest outside and damage any stores in which they found any products with, &#8220;Made in Germany,&#8221; printed on them, causing stores to have to dump these products or risk bankruptcy.</p><p>Once the effects of this boycott began to be felt in Germany, the Germans, who had demonstrated no violence towards the Jews up to this point, simply began boycotting Jewish stores in the same way the Jews had done to stores selling German products in America.</p><p>Rothschild financed IBM, supply machines to the Nazis which produce punch cards to help organize and manage the initial identification and social expulsion of Jews, the confiscation of their property and their extermination.</p><p>On November 16, President Roosevelt recognizes the Zionist regime of Stalin in Russia without consultation with Congress even as 8,000 Ukrainians march in protest in New York.</p><p>Also this year, President Roosevelt, born of a Jewish mother, therefore satisfying Ashkenazi rules of being Jewish, orders the all-seeing eye to be placed upon all new dollar bills along with the motto, &#8220;Novus Ordo Seclorum.&#8221; This is latin for, &#8220;A New Order of the Ages.&#8221;</p><p><strong>1934:</strong> Swiss banking secrecy laws are reformed and it becomes an offence resulting in imprisonment for any bank employee to violate bank secrecy. This is all in preparation for the Rothschild engineered Second World War in which as usual they will fund both sides.</p><p>Edmond de Rothschild dies.</p><p><strong>1936:</strong> With regard to the increase in anti-semitism in Germany, Samuel Landman (at the time, secretary to the World Zionist Organisation), in his 1936 book, Great Britain, The Jews, and Palestine states the following of the United States entry into World War 1,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;The fact that it was Jewish help that brought USA into the War on the side of the Allies has rankled ever since in German &#8211; especially Nazi &#8211; minds, and has contributed in no small measure to the prominence which anti-Semitism occupies in the Nazi programme.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1938:</strong> On 7th November, a Jew, Herschel Grynszpan, assassinated Ernst vom Rath, a minor official at the German Embassy in Paris. As a result of this German hostility towards Jews in Germany started to turn violent.</p><p>The Rothschilds Austrian banking house in Vienna, S. M. von Rothschild und S&#246;hne, closes following the Nazi occupation of Austria.</p><p><strong>1939:</strong> I.G. Farben the leading producer of chemicals in the world and largest German producer of steel dramatically increases its production. This increased production is almost exclusively used to arm Germany for the Second World War. This company was controlled by the Rothschilds and would go on to use Jews and other disaffected peoples as slave labour in the concentration camps. I.G. Farben also created the lethal Zyklon B gas that was used to exterminate the Jews.</p><p>On 1 September, the Second world war starts when Germany invades Poland. This was because the German leadership were a Christian leadership, who understood that Soviet Russia was led by Rothschild funded Communists, and they feared that as the Soviet Union grew in strength, these Jewish Communists would invade and wipe all the Christians off the map.</p><p><strong>1940:</strong> Hansjurgen Koehler in his book, &#8220;Inside The Gestapo,&#8221; states the following, of Maria Anna Schicklgruber, Adolf Hitler&#8217;s grandmother,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;A little servant girl&#8230;&#8230;.came to Vienna and became a domestic servant&#8230;&#8230;.at the Rothschild mansion&#8230;&#8230;.and Hitler&#8217;s unknown grandfather must be probably looked for in this magnificent house.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>This is backed up by Walter Langer in his book, &#8220;The Mind Of Hitler,&#8221; in which he states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Adolf&#8217;s father, Alois Hitler, was the illegitimate son of Maria Anna Schicklgruber&#8230;&#8230;.Maria Anna Schicklgruber was living in Vienna at the time she conceived. At that time she was employed as a servant in the home of Baron Rothschild. As soon as the family discovered her pregnancy she was sent back home&#8230;&#8230;.where Alois was born.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>On the surface, it would appear Hitler was unlikely to be a Rothschild, but then again, when you discover the benefits that the Rothschilds got out of this war, both financially and politically, a Rothschild connection does not appear as outlandish as it may initially seem.</p><p><strong>1941: </strong>President Roosevelt takes America into the second world war by refusing to sell Japan any more steel scrap or oil. Japan was in the midst of a war against China and without that scrap steel and oil, Japan would be unable to continue that war. Japan was totally dependent upon the United States for both steel scrap and oil. Roosevelt knew this action would provoke the Japanese to attack America, which they subsequently did at Pearl Harbor.</p><p><strong>1942:</strong> Prescott Bush, father of future American Presidents&#8217; George Herbert Walker and George W, has his company seized under the, &#8220;Trading With The Enemy,&#8221; Act. He was funding Hitler from America, whilst American soldiers were being killed by German soldiers.</p><p>Jews are also being slaughtered by these same soldiers. Interestingly the ADL never criticizes any of the Bushes for this.</p><p><strong>1943:</strong> February 18th, Zionist, Izaak Greenbaum, head of the Jewish Agency Rescue Committee, in a speech to the Zionist Executive Council states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;If I am asked, could you give from the UJA (United Jewish Appeal) monies to rescue Jews, I say, no and I say again no!&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>He would go onto state,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;One cow in Palestine is worth more than all the Jews in Poland!&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>This is not a surprise, the whole idea of Zionist support for the slaughter of innocent Jews was to scare the survivors into believing that their only place of safety was Israel. How else do you think the Zionists could ensure Jews leave the beautiful European cities in which they live, in order to settle in a desert!</p><p><strong>1944:</strong> On 6 November Lord Moyne, British Minister Resident in the Middle East was assassinated in Cairo by two members of the Jewish terrorist group, the Stern Gang, led by future Prime Minister of Israel, Yitzhak Shamir. He is also responsible for an assassination attempt against Harold MacMichael, the High Commissioner of the British Mandate of Palestine, this same year.</p><p>Interestingly he also masterminds another successful assassination this year against the United Nations representative in the Middle East, Count Folke Bernadotte who, although he had secured the release of 21,000 prisoners from German camps during World War II, was seen by Yitzak Shamir and his terrorist collaborators as an anti-Zionist.</p><p>In Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, two further Rothschild world banks are created. The International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the World Bank.</p><p><strong>1945:</strong> The end of the Second World War. It is reported that I.G. Farben plants were specifically not targeted in the bombing raids on Germany. Interestingly at the end of the war, they were found to have only sustained 15% damage.</p><p>The tribunals held at the end of the Second World War, to investigate Nazi War Crimes, censored any materials recording Western assistance to Hitler.</p><p>The Rothschilds take a giant step towards their goal of world domination when the second, &#8220;League of Nations,&#8221; called the, &#8220;United Nations,&#8221; was approved this year.</p><p><strong>1946:</strong> On July 22 the future Prime Minister of Israel, Ashkenazi Jew, David Ben-Gurion, orders another future Prime Minister of Israel, Ashkenazi Jew, Menachem Begin, to carry out a terrorist attack on the King David Hotel in Palestine, to try and drive out the British. As a result of this 91 people were killed, most of them civilians: 28 British, 41 Arabs, 17 Jews, and 5 others. Around 45 people are injured.</p><p>Menachem Begin went on to proudly proclaimed himself as, &#8220;the father of modern terrorism.&#8221; Just to put the gravity of the attack on the King David Hotel into perspective, it was at the time the biggest death toll as a result of single terrorist action ever and was only surpassed over forty years later by the Bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie.</p><p><strong>1947:</strong> The British who prior to World War 2 declared that there would be no more immigration of Jews to Palestine in order to protect the Palestinians from their acts of terror against both them and British soldiers, transfer control of Palestine to the United Nations. The United Nations resolve to have Palestine partitioned into two states, one zionist and one arab, with Jerusalem to remain as an international zone to be enjoyed by all religious faiths.</p><p>This transfer was scheduled to take place on May 15, 1948. The United Nations had no right to give Arab property to anyone, as indeed even thought the Jews owned 6% of Palestine at that time, resolution 181 granted the Jews 57% of the land leaving the Arabs who at that time had 94% with only 43%.</p><p>Information collected by the ADL in its spy operations on US citizens is used by the House Select Committee on Unamerican Activities. Subcommittee Chair Clare Hoffman dismisses the ADL&#8217;s reports on suspected communists as &#8220;hearsay.&#8221;</p><p><strong>1948:</strong> In the Spring of this year, the Rothschilds bribe President Harry S. Truman (33rd President of the United States 1945 &#8211; 1953) to recognise Israel (Rothschild owned Zionist not Jewish territory) as a sovereign state with $2,000,000 which they give to him on his campaign train.</p><p>They then declare Israel to be a sovereign Jewish state in Palestine and within half an hour President Truman declared the United States to be the first foreign nation to recognise it.</p><p>The Flag of Israel is unveiled. Despite tremendous opposition the emblem on the flag is a blue coloured version of the Rothschild, &#8220;Red Hexagram or Sign.&#8221;</p><p>This angers many Jews who realise this Hexagram was used in the ancient mystery religions as the symbol of, &#8220;Moloch,&#8221; (described as a demon of unwilling sacrifice and is also interestingly the name of the stone owl the elite worship at Bohemian Grove), and, &#8220;Astaroth,&#8221; (described as the Lord Treasurer of Hell).</p><p>The Hexagram was also used to represent Saturn, which has been identified as the esoteric name for, &#8220;Satan.&#8221; This indicates that anyone killed in the name of Israel is actually a sacrifice to Satan. These dissenting Jews believe the, &#8220;Menorah,&#8221; the oldest Jewish symbol should be used and pointed out that the Hexagram is not even a Jewish symbol, but of course as the Rothschild Zionists use it that is what ends up on the Rothschild, I mean Zionist, I mean Israeli flag.</p><p>In the early hours of April 19, 132 Jewish terrorists from the Irgun gang, led by future Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, and the Stern gang, led by future Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir, brutally massacre 200 men, women and children as they are sleeping peacefully in the Arab village of Deir Yassin.</p><p>Following the United Nations transfer of Palestine to an independent Jewish state and an independent Arab state on May 15, the Israelis launched a military assault on the Arabs with blaring loudspeakers on their trucks informing the Arabs that if they did not flee immediately, they would be slaughtered.</p><p>800,000 Arabs with the recent memory of the Deir Yassin massacre at the forefront of their minds, fled in panic. They asked for help from nighbouring Arab states, but those states did not get involved as they were no match for the Israelis whose up to date military hardware had been supplied by the Jewish Stalinist regime in Russia. Following this assault, the Jews now controlled 78% of the former Palestine as oppose to the 57% that had been given to them illegally by the United Nations.</p><p>The Palestinians, many of them Christians, were never paid compensation for their homes, property and businesses stolen from them during this illegal Jewish assault, and these people ended up in slum refugee cities of tents. Futhermore at least half of the Palestinians in their hurry to flee, left their birth certificates behind. The State of Israel then passed a law that only those who could prove citizenship were allowed to return to Israel, thus meaning these 400,000 Palestinians could not return and lost all their property they had left there.</p><p>Ashkenazi Jew, David Ben-Gurion, one of the father founders of Israel and its first Prime Minister, candidly describes Zionist aims in his diary (21 May 1948) as follows,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;The Achilles heel of the Arab coalition is the Lebanon. Muslim supremacy in this country is artificial and can easily be overthrown. A Christian State ought to be set up there, with its southern frontier on the river Litani.</p><p>We would sign a treaty of alliance with this State. Thus when we have broken the strength of the Arab Legion and bombed Amman, we could wipe out Trans-Jordan, after that Syria would fall. And if Egypt still dared to make war on us, we would bomb Port Said, Alexandria and Cairo.</p><p>We should thus end the war and would have but paid to Egypt, Assyria and Chaldea on behalf of our ancestors.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>1949: </strong>On October 1, Mao Tse Tsung declares the founding of the People&#8217;s Republic Of China in Tiananmen Square, Beijing. He is funded by Rothschild created Communism in Russia and also the following Rothschild agents: Solomon Adler, a former United States Treasury official who was a Soviet Spy; Israel Epstein, the son of a Jewish Bolshevik imprisoned by the Tsar in Russia for trying to forment a revolution there; and Frank Coe, a leading official of the Rothschild owned IMF.</p><p><strong>1950:</strong> Israel passes their law of return, guaranteeing every Jew worldwide the right to dwell in the state of Israel, however the Palestinians even though they had lived there for 1300 years, were denied that right.</p><p>John Davitt, former chief of the Justice Department&#8217;s internal security section notes that the Israeli intelligence service is the second most active in the United States after the Soviets and of course both Israel and the Soviet Union are run by an Ashkenazi Jewish leadership.</p><p><strong>1951:</strong> On 1 April the Israeli Secret Intelligence Agency the Mossad, which will go on to terrorize the world, is formed. The motto of the Mossad is probably the most disgusting secret service motto in the world, it is,</p><p>&#8220;By Way Of Deception,<br>Thou Shalt Do War.&#8221;</p><p><strong>1953:</strong> N. M. Rothschild &amp; Sons found the British Newfoundland Corporation Limited to develop 60,000 square miles of land in Newfoundland, Canada, which comprised a power station to harness the power of the Hamilton (later renamed Churchill) Falls.

He states that the Knesset should be,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;a symbol, in the eyes of all men, of the permanence of the State of Israel.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>On page 219 of his book, &#8220;Tales of the British Aristocracy,&#8221; L.G. Pine, the Editor of Burke&#8217;s Peerage, states that the Jews,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;have made themselves so closely connected with the British peerage that the two classes are unlikely to suffer loss which is not mutual. So closely linked are the Jews and the lords that a blow against the Jews in this country would not be possible without injuring the aristocracy also.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Maurice de Rothschild dies in Paris.</p><p><strong>1962:</strong> de Rothschild Fr&#232;res establishes Im&#233;tal as an umbrella company for all their mineral mining interests.</p><p>Frederic Morton publishes his book, The Rothschilds, in which he states,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Though they control scores of industrial, commercial, mining and tourist corporations, not one bears the name Rothschild. Being private partnerships, the family houses never need to, and never do, publish a single public balance sheet, or any other report of their financial condition.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>This attitude reveals the true aim of the Rothschilds, to eliminate all competition and create their own worldwide monopoly.</p><p><strong>1963:</strong> On June 4th President John F. Kennedy (the 35th President of the United States 1961 &#8211; 1963) signs Executive Order 11110 which returned to the U.S. government the power to issue currency, without going through the Rosthchilds owned Federal Reserve.</p><p>Less than 6 months later on November 22nd , president Kennedy is assassinated by the Rothschilds for the same reason as they assassinated President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, he wanted to print American money for the American people, as oppose to for the benefit of a money grabbing war mongering foreign elite.</p><p>This Executive Order 11110, is rescinded by President Lyndon Baines Johnson (the 36th President of the United States 1963 to 1969) on Air Force One from Dallas to Washington, the same day as President Kennedy was assassinated.</p><p>Another, and probably the primary, reason for Kennedy&#8217;s assassination is however, the fact that he made it quite clear to Israeli Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion, that under no circumstances would he agree to Israel becoming a nuclear state. The Israeli newspaper Ha&#8217;aretz on February 5, 1999, in a review of, Avner Cohen&#8217;s book, &#8220;Israel and the Bomb,&#8221; states the following,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;The murder of American President John F. Kennedy brought to an abrupt end the massive pressure being applied by the U.S. administration on the government of Israel to discontinue the nuclear program...The book implied that, had Kennedy remained alive, it is doubtful whether Israel would today have a nuclear option.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Edmond de Rothschild establishes La Compagnie Financi&#232;re Edmond de Rothschild (LCF), in Switzerland as a venture capital house.

All of these three countries are suddenly attacked by Israel and as a result the Sinai which included Gaza was stolen from Egypt, and the West Bank and the Jordan River stolen from Jordan.</p><p>As a result of this, on June 8, the Israelis launch an attack on the USS Liberty with Israeli aircraft and motor torpedo boats, in an effort to blame it on Egypt, to bring America into the war on their side, and of course follow to the letter, their Mossad motto,</p><p>&#8220;By Way Of Deception,<br>Thou Shalt Do War.&#8221;</p><p>As a result of their attack, 34 American servicemen were killed and 174 wounded. Israel lies as usual, claiming it mistook this warship that was flying a large United States flag, for an ancient out-of-service Egyptian horse carrier El Quseir, that was 180 feet shorter. They also claim the ship was in the war zone, when it was actually in international waters, far from any fighting. The Israeli&#8217;s attack on this warship lasts for 75 minutes during which time they shoot up one of the United States flags, resulting in the sailors desperately raising another one.</p><p>In the aftermath of this attack, the American sailors who survived are warned by the United States military not to discuss the matter with anyone due to, &#8220;national security.&#8221; This story gets no prominence in the Rothschild controlled mainstream media and as usual Israel is in no way even rebuked for their crimes by their subservient country of America.</p><p>The following day, June 9th, Israel illegally occupies the Golan Heights which it seizes from Syria.

This, &#8220;Day of Purim,&#8221; is a day the Jews celebrate their victory over Ancient Babylon, now based within the borders of Iraq, how interesting.</p><p>What is also significant is that the previous U.S. led invasion of Iraq ended on the Day of Purim ten years earlier with the slaughter of 150,000 fleeing Iraqis under the current President&#8217;s father, George Herbert Walker Bush. Purim is also the time when the Jews are encouraged to get bloody revenge against their perceived enemies.</p><p>Ancient Babylon, I mean Iraq, is now one of six nations left in the world who don&#8217;t have a Rothschild controlled central bank. This war is mainly about stealing Iraq&#8217;s water supply for Israel and is being fought with the blood of the American military which the State of Rothschild, I mean Israel control.</p><p>Israel has always struggled for water, it had to steal the Golan Heights from Syria which provided Israel with one third of its fresh water 36 years before, yet still in Israel water extraction has surpassed replacement by 2.5 billion metres in the last 25 years.</p><p>This means the water is far more precious to them than the oil reserves which are the second largest reserves of oil on the planet.</p><p>Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamed states in a speech,</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Jews rule the world by proxy. They get others to fight and die for them.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>The Police Chief of Cloudcroft stops a truck speeding through a school zone. The drivers turn out to be Israelis with expired passports. Claiming to be movers, the truck contains junk furniture and several boxes.</p><p>The Israelis are handed over to immigration. The contents of the boxers are not revealed to the public.</p><p>Israel deploys assassination squads into other countries, including the United States. The US Government does not protest.</p><p><strong>2004:</strong> Two years into an investigation of AIPAC&#8217;s (The American Israel Public Affairs Committee &#8211; the largest political lobbying group in the USA with over 65,000 members whose only purpose is to use the USA for the purposes of Israel) possible role as a spy front for Israel, Ashkenazi Jew, Larry Franklin, a mid-level Pentagon Analyst is observed by the FBI giving classified information to two officials of AIPAC suspected of being Israeli spies.</p><p>AIPAC hires lawyer Nathan Lewin to handle their legal defense, the same lawyer who defended suspected Israeli spy Stephen Bryen in 1978. Larry Franklin worked in the Pentagon Office of Special Plans, run by Richard Perle, at the time Perle (who was caught giving classified information to Israel back in 1970) was insisting that Iraq was crawling with weapons of mass destruction requiring the United States to invade and conquer Iraq.</p><p>There were no WMDs, of course, and Perle has dumped the blame for the, &#8220;bad intelligence,&#8221; on George Tenet. But what is known is that the Pentagon Office of Special Plans was coordinating with a similar group in Israel, in Ariel Sharon&#8217;s office.</p><p>With two suspected Israeli spies (at least) inside the office from which the lies that launched the war in Iraq originated, it appears that the people of the United States are the victims of a deadly hoax, a hoax that started a war using the blood and money of American citizens for the purposes of Israeli oppression.</p><p>The leaking of the investigation of AIPAC to the media on August 28th, 2004 gave advance warning to other spies working with Franklin. The damage to the FBI&#8217;s investigation was completed when United States Attorney General John Ashcroft ordered the FBI to stop all arrests in the case.</p><p>Like the Stephen Bryen case and the hunt for, &#8220;Mega,&#8221; this latest spy scandal seems destined by officials who have their own secret allegiances to protect, barring a massive public outcry.</p><p>Police near the Nuclear Fuel Services plant in Tennessee stop a truck after a three mile chase, during which the driver throws a bottle containing a strange liquid from the cab. The drivers turn out to be Israelis using fake identifications. The FBI refuses to investigate and the Israelis are released.</p><p>Two Israelis try to enter Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base, home to eight Trident submarines. The truck tests positive for explosives.</p><p>The National Director of the ADL, Abraham H. Foxman, publishes a book entitled, &#8220;Never Again? The Threat Of The New Anti-Semitism,&#8221; in which he states that the New Testament&#8217;s &#8220;lie,&#8221; that the ancient Pharisees were responsible for the death of Christ, has been responsible for anti-semitism throughout the millennia and thus the New Testament of the bible is, &#8220;hate speech,&#8221; and should be censored or banned.</p><p><strong>2005:</strong> On January 20, President Bush makes the following statement as part of his second inaugural address, &#8220;When our Founders declared a new order of the ages.&#8221; This is not true. The founders did not declare a, &#8220;new order of the ages,&#8221; President Roosevelt did when in 1933, he put it&#8217;s latin translation, &#8220;Novus Ordo Seclorum,&#8221; on the dollar bill.</p><p>On 7 July the London Underground Network is bombed. Israel&#8217;s Finance Minister, Binyamin Netanyahu is in London on the morning of the attacks in order to attend an economic conference in a hotel over the underground station where one of the blasts occurred, but stayed in his hotel room instead after he had been informed by Israeli intelligence officials attacks were expected.</p><p>There are now only 5 nations on the world left without a Rothschild controlled central bank: Iran; North Korea; Sudan; Cuba; and Libya.</p><p>Physics Professor, Stephen E. Jones of Brigham Young University publishes a paper in which he proves the World Trade Center buildings could have only been brought down in the manner they were by explosives. He receives no coverage in the mainstream media for his scientific and provable claims.</p><p><strong>2006:</strong> The Edmond De Rothschild Banque, a subsidiary of Europe&#8217;s Edmond De Rothschild family bank group in France, becomes the first foreign family bank that has obtained approval of the China Banking Regulatory Commission and entered China&#8217;s financial market.</p><p>The ADL ruthlessly leans on governments throughout the world to pass hate crimes legislation, as they are scared that the criminal cabal that is Israel and the Rothschilds is being exposed more and more on a daily basis, predominantly on the internet. Their job is to protect this criminal network and what better way to do it than by passing laws in which anyone who exposes a Jewish criminal becomes a criminal.</p><p>David Irving was sentenced to three years in jail in Austria, for &#8220;denying the holocaust.&#8221; It is important to note that the only historical event you can be arrested for questioning is the holocaust. This is because this has been the Rothschilds greatest weapon in brainwashing <strong>YOU, THE &#8220;STUPID GOY!&#8221;.  </strong>How is it that the &#8220;Jews&#8221; are so poor and persecuted when in actual fact they control the vast majority of international finance and international corporations throughout the world?</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link

It is important to understand the history of who and what we are dealing with so that we recognize where we find ourselves today.

href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/Andrew.Carrington.Hitchcock/Julius%20Caesar.jpg">Julius Caesar</a></strong></h4><p><strong>Julius Caesar</strong> took back from the money changers the power to coin money and then minted coins for the benefit of all. With this new, plentiful supply of money, he established many massive construction projects and built great public works. By making money plentiful, Caesar won the love of the common people.</p><p>But the money changers hated him for it and this is why Caesar was assassinated. Immediately after his assassination came the demise of plentiful money in Rome, taxes increased, as did corruption.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p>Eventually the Roman money supply was reduced by 90 per cent, which resulted in the common people losing their lands and homes.</p><h4><strong>Year 30 A.D.</strong></h4><h4><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/Jesus.Christ.jpg">Jesus Christ</a></strong></h4><p><strong>Jesus Christ</strong> in the last year of his life uses physical force to throw the money changers out of the temple. This was the only time during the the life of his ministry in which he used physical force against anyone.</p><p>When Jews came to Jerusalem to pay their Temple tax, they could only pay it with a special coin, the half-shekel. This was a half-ounce of pure silver, about the size of a quarter. It was the only coin at that time which was pure silver and of assured weight, without the image of a pagan Emperor, and therefore to the Jews it was the only coin acceptable to God.</p><p>Unfortunately these coins were not plentiful, the money changers had cornered the market on them, and so they raised the price of them to whatever the market could bear. They used their monopoly they had on these coins to make exorbitant profits, forcing the Jews to pay whatever these money changers demanded.</p><p>Jesus threw the money changers out as their monopoly on these coins totally violated the sanctity of God&#8217;s house. These money changers called for his death days later.</p><h4><strong>Year 1024 </strong></h4><p>A big jump to year 1024 and the money changers had control of Medieval England&#8217;s money supply by this time and were generally known as goldsmiths. Paper money started out and this was simply a receipt you would get after depositing gold with a goldsmith, in their safe rooms or vaults. This paper started being traded as it was far more convenient than carrying round a lot of heavy gold and silver coins.</p><p>Over time, to simplify the process, the receipts were made to the bearer, rather than to the individual depositor, making it readily transferable without the need for a signature. This, also, broke the tie to any identifiable deposit of gold.</p><p>Eventually the goldsmiths recognized that only a fraction of depositors ever came in and demanded their gold at any one time, so they found out how they could cheat on the system. They started to issue more receipts than they had gold to back those receipts and no one would be any the wiser. They would loan out these receipts which were not backed by the gold they had in their depositories and collect interest on them.</p><p>This was the birth of the system we know today as <strong>Fractional Reserve Banking</strong>, and like this system of today this meant the goldsmiths were able to make astronomical amounts of money by loaning out, what was essentially fraudulent receipts, as they were for gold the goldsmiths didn&#8217;t even possess. As they gradually got more confident they would loan out up to 10 times the amount they had in their deposits.</p><p>To simplify how they made money on this, let&#8217;s give an example in which a goldsmith charges the same rate of interest to creditors and debtors. In this example a goldsmith would pay interest of 6% on gold you had deposited with them, and then charge 6% interest on money, I mean fraudulent receipts, you borrowed from them. As they would lend out ten times what you had deposited with them, whilst they&#8217;re paying you 6% interest, they are making 60% interest. This is on your gold.</p><p>The goldsmiths also discovered that their control of this fraudulent money supply gave them control over the economy and the assets of the people. They exacted their control by rowing the economy between easy money and tight money.</p><p>The way they did this was to make money easy to borrow and therefore increase the amount of money in circulation, then suddenly tighten the money supply, taking it out of circulation by making loans more difficult to get or stopping offering them altogether.</p><p>Why did they do this? Simple, because the result would be a certain percentage of the people being unable to repay their previous loans, and not having the facility to take out new ones, so they would go bankrupt and be forced to sell their assets to the goldsmiths for literally pennies on the dollar.</p><p>This is exactly what happens in the world economy of today, but is referred to with words like, &#8220;the business cycle,&#8221; &#8220;boom and bust,&#8221; &#8220;recession,&#8221; and &#8220;depression,&#8221; in order to confuse the population of the money changers scam.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 image2-align-right" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg" width="160" height="158" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:158,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;King Henry I&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;right&quot;,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="King Henry I" title="King Henry I" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hh4t!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0793281d-5aac-4629-92f5-c20722915a6f_160x158.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><h4><strong>Year 1100 </strong></h4><h4><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/King.Henry.I.jpg">King Henry I</a></strong></h4><p><strong>King Henry I</strong> succeeds King William II to the throne of England. During his reign he decided to take the power the money changers had over the people, and he did this by creating a completely new form of money that took the form of a stick! This stick was called, a &#8220;<strong>talley stick</strong>,&#8221; and ended up being the longest lasting form of currency, lasting 726 years until 1826 (even though other currencies came and went in that same period and ran alongside the talley sticks).</p><p>The talley stick was a stick of polished wood into which notches were cut along one side, to indicate the denomination of money the stick represented. The stick was then split lengthwise through the notches, so that both pieces had a record of the notches. The King kept one half to protect against counterfeiting and the other half was spent into the economy and circulated as money.</p><p>It was also one of the most successful money systems in history, as the King demanded that all the King&#8217;s taxes had to be paid in, &#8220;talley sticks,&#8221; so this increased their circulation and acceptance as a legitimate form of money. This system would work well in keeping the power away from the money changers in England.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 image2-align-right

Government officials go, cap in hand, to the money changers for loans necessary to pursue their political purposes. The money changers agree to solve this problem in exchange for a government sanctioned privately owned bank which could issue money created out of nothing.</p><p>This was deceptively named the, &#8220;<strong>Bank of England</strong>,&#8221; for the sole purpose of duping the general public into believing it was part of the government, which it was not.</p><p>Like any other private corporation the Bank of England sold shares to get started. The private investors, whose names were never revealed, were supposed to put up &#163;1,250,000 in gold coins to buy their shares in the bank, but only &#163;750,000 was ever received. Despite that the bank was duly chartered and began loaning out several times the money it supposedly had in reserves, all at interest.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 image2-align-right" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg" width="160" height="215" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:215,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;William Paterson&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;right&quot;,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="William Paterson" title="William Paterson" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!o0Lj!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3b41e2e1-1ffd-453f-8410-b30a89af36af_160x215.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/William.Paterson.jpg">William Paterson</a></strong></p><p>Although the Bank of England&#8217;s private investors were never revealed, one of the Directors, <strong>William Paterson</strong>, stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The Bank hath benefit of interest on all monies which it creates out of nothing.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Furthermore the Bank of England would loan government officials as much of the new currency as they wanted, as long as they secured the debt by direct taxation of the British people. The Bank of England amounted to nothing less than the legal counterfeiting of a national currency for private gain, and thus any country that would fall under the control of a private bank would amount to nothing more than a plutocracy.</p><p>Soon after the Bank of England was formed it attacked the talley stick system, as it was money outside of the power of the money changers, just as King Henry I had intended it to be.</p><h4><strong>Year 1698</strong></h4><p>Following four years of the Bank of England, their plan to control the money supply had come on in leaps and bounds. They had flooded the country with so much money that the Government debt to the Bank had grown from the initial &#163;1,250,000, to &#163;16,000,000, in only four years. That&#8217;s an increase of 1,280%.</p><p>Why do they do it? Simple, if the money in circulation in a country is &#163;5,000,000, and a central bank is set up and prints another &#163;15,000,000, stage one of the plan, sends it out into the economy through loans etc, than this will reduce the value of the initial &#163;5,000,000 in circulation before the bank was formed. This is because the initial &#163;5,000,000 is now only 25% of the economy. It will also give the bank control of 75% of the money in circulation with the &#163;15,000,000 they sent out into the economy.</p><p>This also causes inflation which is the reduction in worth of money borne by the common person, due to the economy being flooded with too much money, an economy which the Central Bank are responsible for. As the common person&#8217;s money is worth less, he has to go to the bank to get a loan to help run his business etc, and when the Central Bank are satisfied there are enough people with debt out there, the bank will tighten the supply of money by not offering loans. This is stage two of the plan.</p><p>Stage three, is sitting back and waiting for the debtors to them to go bankrupt, allowing the bank to then seize from them real wealth, businesses and property etc, for pennies on the dollar.

He replies,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;That is simple. In the Colonies we issue our own money. It is called <strong>Colonial Scrip</strong>. We issue it in proper proportion to the demands of trade and industry to make the products pass easily from the producers to the consumers. In this manner creating for ourselves our own paper money, we control its purchasing power, and we have no interest to pay no one.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>As a result of Franklin&#8217;s statement, the British Parliament hurriedly passed the <strong>Currency Act of 1764</strong>. This prohibited colonial officials from issuing their own money and ordered them to pay all future taxes in gold or silver coins. Referring to after this act was passed, Franklin would state the following in his autobiography,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;In one year, the conditions were so reversed that the era of prosperity ended, and a depression set in, to such an extent that the streets of the colonies were filled with the unemployed ... The colonies would gladly have borne the little tax on tea and other matters had it not been that England took away from the colonies their money which created unemployment and dissatisfaction.</em></p><p><em>The viability of the colonists to get power to issue their own money permanently out of the hands of King George III and the international bankers was the prime reason for the revolutionary war.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Control of America&#8217;s money system will change hands 8 times since 1764.</p><h4><strong>Year 1775</strong></h4><p>April 19th, start of the revolutionary war in <strong>Lexington, Massachusetts</strong>. By this time the colonies had been drained of silver and gold coins as a result of British taxation. As a result of this, the continental government had no choice but to print money to finance the war.</p><p>At the start of the revolution the American money supply stood at $12,000,000. By the end of the war it was nearly $500,000,000 and as a result the currency was virtually worthless. An example of this is that a pair of shoes now sold for $5,000 dollars. This also shows the danger of printing too much money. The reason Colonial Scrip had worked was because just enough was used to facilitate trade.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 image2-align-right

href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/Robert.Morris.th.jpg">Robert Morris</a></strong></h4><p>Towards the end of the American Revolution the <strong>Continental Congress</strong> were desperate for money, so they allowed <strong>Robert Morris</strong>, their Financial Superintendent, to open a privately owned central bank, in the hope this would sort out the money problem.</p><p>Morris was a wealthy man who had grown wealthier during the revolution by trading in war materials. This first central bank in America was called the <strong>Bank of North America</strong>, which was set up with a four year charter, and was closely modeled after the Bank of England. It was allowed to practice the fraudulent system of fractional reserve banking, so it could create money it didn&#8217;t have, then charge interest on it.</p><p>The bank&#8217;s charter called for private investors to put up $400,000 of initial capital, which Morris found himself unable to raise. Nevertheless he unashamedly used his political influence to have gold deposited in the bank, which had been loaned to America by France. Morris then loaned the money he needed to buy this bank from this deposit of gold that belonged to the government, or rather the American people.</p><p>This Bank of North America, again deceptively named so the common people would believe it was under the control of the government, was given a monopoly over the national currency.</p><h4><strong>Year 1785</strong></h4><div

solve the problem with the money supply, of course the economy continued to plummet, forcing the Continental Congress not to renew the bank&#8217;s charter. The leader of the effort to kill this bank was <strong>William Findlay</strong> of Pennsylvania, who stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;This institution, having no principle but that of avarice, will never be varied in its objective ... to engross all the wealth, power and influence of the state.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Mayer Amschel Rothschild moves his family home to a five story home in Frankfurt, Germany, which he shares with the <strong>Schiff</strong> family, (a descendant of both Rothschild and Schiff, Jacob Schiff, who would be born in this house, would, some 128 years

Jefferson</a></strong></p><p>Now President <strong>Thomas Jefferson</strong>, President Jefferson struck a deal with Napoleon in France. The United States would give Napoleon $3,000,000 of gold in exchange for a huge chunk of territory west of the Mississippi River. This was called the <strong>Louisiana purchase</strong>.</p><p>Napoleon used this gold to put together an army. He then used this army to set off across Europe where he began to conquer everything in his path. The Bank of England quickly rose to oppose Napoleon and financed every nation in his path, as usual profiteering from war. Prussia, Austria, and then finally Russia all went heavily into debt in a futile attempt to stop Napoleon.</p><h4><strong>Year 1807</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

He was a staunch opponent of the bank and he sent his Vice-President, <strong>George Clinton</strong>, to break a tie in the Senate which killed the bank.</p><h4><strong>Year 1812</strong></h4><p>As promised by Nathan Rothschild, because the charter for the First Bank of the United States is not renewed, thousands have to die and the British attack America. However, as the British are still busy fighting Napoleon, they are unable to mount much of an assault and the war ends in 1814 with America undefeated.</p><h4><strong>Year 1814</strong></h4><p>Wellington&#8217;s attacks from the South and other defeats eventually forced Napoleon to abdicate and Louis XVIII is crowned King. Napoleon is exiled to the tiny island of Elba, off the coast of Italy.<strong>1815</strong>Napoleon escapes his exile and returns to Paris. French troops were sent to capture him, but he uses his charisma to convince these soldiers to rally round him, and they subsequently hail him as their emperor once again. In March, Napoleon assembles an army which England&#8217;s Duke of Wellington defeated less than 90 days later at Waterloo.</p><p>Even though the outcome is predetermined, these bankers don&#8217;t like to take any sort of risk, they&#8217;re too used to a monopoly. Therefore Nathan Rothschild sent a trusted courier named <strong>Rothworth</strong> to Waterloo where he stayed on the edge of the battlefield. Once the battle was decided, Rothworth took off for the Channel, and delivered the news of Wellington&#8217;s victory to Nathan Rothschild a full 24 hours before Wellington&#8217;s own courier.</p><p>Nathan Rothschild hurried to the London Stock market and stood in his usual position. All eyes were on him as Rothschild had a legendary communications network. Rothschild stood there looking forlorn and suddenly started selling. The other traders believed that this meant he had heard that Napoleon had won so they all started selling frantically.</p><p>The market subsequently plummeted, soon everyone was selling their consuls (British Government Bonds), but then Rothschild secretly started buying them all up through his agents on the floor, for a fraction of what they were worth only hours before. A lot of these consuls were able to be converted to Bank of England stock, which is how Rothschild took over the control of the Bank of England and therefore the British money supply.</p><p>Interestingly, 100 years later, the <strong>New York Times</strong> ran a story stating that Nathan Rothschild&#8217;s grandson had attempted to secure a court order to suppress a book with this, what we would call today, &#8220;insider trading,&#8221; story in it. The Rothschild family claimed the story was untrue and libelous, but the court denied the Rothschilds request and ordered the family to pay all court costs.</p><p>Nathan Rothschild openly brags that in his 17 years in England he had increased his initial &#163;20,000 stake given to him by his father, 2500 times to &#163;50,000,000.</p><p>Some people ask, why do bankers want war? Simple, bankers finance both sides in a war. They do this because war is the biggest debt generator of them all. A nation will borrow any amount for victory, even though the banks have already predetermined the outcome. The ultimate loser is loaned just enough money to hold out a vain hope of victory and the ultimate winner is given enough to ensure that he does win.</p><p>How do the banks ensure they will get all their money back? Easy, such loans are given on the guarantee that the victor will honor the debts of the vanquished. Never mind the thousands of troops that give their lives on the pretext it is for the honor of their respective nations, when it is actually for the profits of bankers.</p><p>In fact, during the period between the founding of the Bank of England in 1694 and Napoleon&#8217;s defeat at Waterloo this year, England had been at war for 56 years, with much of the remaining time spent preparing for war. If it&#8217;s a good business for bankers&#8217; profits, then why change it.</p><h4><strong>Year 1816</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg" width="330" height="219" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:219,&quot;width&quot;:330,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Second Bank of the United States&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Second Bank of the United States" title="Second Bank of the United States" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MrYn!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F063c70ea-fa51-4356-8a0a-a55897ce0880_330x219.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/Second.Bank.of.the.United.States.jpg">Second Bank of the United States</a></strong></p><p>The American Congress passes a bill permitting yet another privately owned central bank.

Jackson</a></strong></p><p>After 12 years during which the Second Bank of the United States, ruthlessly manipulated the American economy to the detriment of the people but to the benefit of their own money grabbing ends, the American people had unsurprisingly had enough. Opponents of this bank nominated Senator <strong>Andrew Jackson</strong> of Tennessee to run for President.</p><p>To the dismay of the money changers, Jackson won the Presidency and made it quite clear he intended to kill this bank at his first opportunity. He started out during his first term in office, to root out the banks many minions from government service. To illustrate how deep this cancer was rooted in government, he fired 2,000 of the 11,000 employees of the Federal Government.</p><h4><strong>Year 1832</strong></h4><p>The Second Bank of the United States, ask Congress to pass a renewal of the bank&#8217;s charter, four years early. Congress complied and sent the bill to President Jackson for signing. President Jackson vetoed this bill and in his veto message he stated the following,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;It is not our own citizens only who are to receive the bounty of our Government. More than eight millions of the stock of the Bank are held by foreigners ... Is there no danger to out liberty and independence in a bank that in its nature has so little to bind it to our country?</em></p><p><em>Controlling our currency, receiving our public moneys, and holding thousands of our citizens in dependence ... would be more formidable and dangerous than a military power of the enemy. If government would confine itself to equal protection, and, as Heaven does its rains, shower the favor alike on the high and the low, the rich and the poor, it would be an unqualified blessing.</em></p><p><em>In the act before me there seems to be wide and unnecessary departure from these just principles.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>In July, Congress was unable to override President Jackson&#8217;s veto. President Jackson then stood for re-election and for the first time in American history he took his argument directly to the people by taking his re-election campaign on the road. His campaign slogan was,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Jackson And No Bank!&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Even though the bankers poured over $3,000,000 into President Jackson&#8217;s opponent, the Republican, Senator Henry Clays&#8217; campaign, President Jackson was re-elected by a landslide in November. President Jackson knew the battle was only beginning however, and following his victory he stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The hydra of corruption is only scotched, not dead!&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1833</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!VtTY!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F72c64f4b-0103-4b5f-8a9d-537a56784459_160x264.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!VtTY!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F72c64f4b-0103-4b5f-8a9d-537a56784459_160x264.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!VtTY!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F72c64f4b-0103-4b5f-8a9d-537a56784459_160x264.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!VtTY!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F72c64f4b-0103-4b5f-8a9d-537a56784459_160x264.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!VtTY!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F72c64f4b-0103-4b5f-8a9d-537a56784459_160x264.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!VtTY!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F72c64f4b-0103-4b5f-8a9d-537a56784459_160x264.jpeg" width="160" height="264" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/72c64f4b-0103-4b5f-8a9d-537a56784459_160x264.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:264,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Roger B.

He made good on his word, and the Second Bank of the United States, sharply contracted the money supply by calling in old loans and refusing to issue new ones. Naturally a financial panic ensued, followed by America being plunged into a deep depression.</p><p>Biddle then unashamedly blamed President Jackson for the crash, claiming that it was Jackson&#8217;s withdrawal of federal funds that had caused it. This crash plunged wages and prices, unemployment soared along with business bankruptcies. The United States was in uproar and newspaper editors blasted the President in editorials.</p><h4><strong>Year 1835</strong></h4><p>Congress assembled what was called the, &#8220;<strong>Panic Session</strong>,&#8221; and on 27 March President Jackson was officially censured by Congress for withdrawing funds from the Second Bank of the United States, in a vote which passed the Senate by 26 to 20. It was the first time a President had ever been censured by Congress and Jackson stated of the Bank,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;You are a den of thieves vipers, and I intend to rout you out, and by

This was followed by another strong vote which established a special committee to investigate whether the Bank had caused the crash.</p><p>However, when the investigating committee arrived at the bank&#8217;s door in Philadelphia with a subpoena authorizing them to inspect the books, Nicholas Biddle refused to give them up, or allow inspection of correspondence with Congressmen relating to their personal loans and advancements he had made to them. He also refused to testify before the committee back in Washington.</p><h4><strong>Year 1836</strong></h4><p>The Charter for the Second Bank of the United States expires, and the Bank ceases functioning as America&#8217;s central bank. Nicholas Biddle was later arrested and charged with fraud. He was tried and acquitted but died in 1844 still battling civil suits.</p><h4><strong>Year 1838</strong></h4><p>On January 8th President Jackson pays off the final installment of the national debt, which had been necessitated by allowing the banks to issue currency for government bonds, rather than simply issuing treasury notes without such debt. He was the only President to ever pay off the debt.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg" width="160" height="306" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:306,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Richard Lawrence&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Richard Lawrence" title="Richard Lawrence" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egLw!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d8fd35e-6eb8-4fab-a4e5-6e02e5072ed8_160x306.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/Richard.Lawrence.jpg">Richard Lawrence</a></strong></p><p>On January 30th an assassin called <strong>Richard Lawrence</strong> tried to shoot President Jackson, but both pistols misfired.

Lincoln</a></strong></p><p>One month after the inauguration of President <strong>Abraham Lincoln</strong>, the American Civil War got underway at Fort Sumter, South Carolina, after South Carolina left the Union. Slavery has always been cited as the cause of the war but this was simply not the case, as President Lincoln himself stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I have no purpose directly or indirectly to interfere with the institution of slavery in the state where it now exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so ... My paramount objective is to save the Union and it is not either to save or destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>The real reason for the war is that the Southern States were in an a dire economic situation due to the actions of the Northern States. Northern industrialists had used trade tariffs to prevent the Southern States from buying cheaper European goods. Europe subsequently retaliated by stopping cotton imports from the South. Thus the South were being forced to pay more for goods whilst having their income slashed.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg" width="160" height="386" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:386,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Otto Von Bismarck&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Otto Von Bismarck" title="Otto Von Bismarck" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!h3bR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F306874f3-d0a3-4830-863b-b4dafe398b6e_160x386.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/Otto.von.Bismarck.jpg">Otto Von Bismarck</a></strong></p><p>This is when the money changers saw the opportunity to divide and conquer America by plunging it into Civil War. This is confirmed by <strong>Otto Von Bismarck</strong> when he was Chancellor of Germany (1871 - 1890), who stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The division of the United States into federations of equal force was decided long before the Civil War by the high financial powers of Europe, these bankers were afraid that the United States if they remained as one block and as one nation, would attain economic and financial independence which would upset their financial domination over the world.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Only months after these first shots in South Carolina, the Central bankers loaned, <strong>Napoleon III</strong> of France (the Napoleon of the battle of Waterloo&#8217;s nephew), 210 million francs to seize Mexico and then station troops along the Southern border of the United States, by taking advantage of the American Civil War to return Mexico to colonial rule.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

1823. This doctrine proclaimed the United States&#8217; opinion that European powers should no longer colonize the Americas or interfere with the affairs of sovereign nations located in the Americas, such as the United States, Mexico, and others.</p><p>In return, the United States planned to stay neutral in wars between European powers and in wars between a European power and its colonies. However, if these latter type of wars were to occur in the Americas, the U.S. would view such action as hostile toward itself.</p><p>Whilst the French were breaching the, Monroe Doctrine in Mexico, the British followed suit by moving 11,000 troops into Canada and positioning them along America&#8217;s Northern border. President Lincoln knew he was in trouble, so he went with his Secretary To The Treasury, Salomon P. Chase, to New York to apply for the loans necessary to fund America&#8217;s defense.</p><p>The money changers had engineered the war to make the Union fail, and were not about to save it now, so they offered loans at 24% to 36% interest. President Lincoln declined this as they knew he would and returned to Washington, where he sent for Colonel <strong>Dick Taylor</strong> of Chicago, who he put in charge of the problem of how he should finance the war.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Colonel Taylor stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Why Lincoln, that is easy, just get Congress to pass a bill authorizing the printing of full legal tender treasury notes ... and pay your soldiers with them and go ahead and win your war with them also.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>President Lincoln asked Colonel Taylor if the people of the United States would accept the notes, Colonel Taylor said,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The people or anyone else will not have any choice in the matter, if you make them full legal tender. They will have the full sanction of the government and be just as good as any money, as Congress is given that express right by the Constitution.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1862</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg" width="160" height="132" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:132,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Greenbacks&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Greenbacks" title="Greenbacks" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Y_OT!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb614b2cb-f57e-4d2b-96fa-a03268495917_160x132.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/Greenbacks.jpg">Greenbacks</a></strong></p><p>President Lincoln began the printing of $450,000,000 worth of new bills. These bills were printed in green ink on the reverse side, in order to distinguish them from other bills in circulation, and were called, &#8220;<strong>Greenbacks</strong>.&#8221; These were printed at no interest to the Federal Government and were used to pay the troops and purchase their supplies. President Lincoln would be the last President to issue debt free United States notes, and on this subject he stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The Government should create, issue and circulate all the currency and credit needed to satisfy the spending power of the Government and the buying power of consumers. The privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the supreme prerogative of Government, but it is in the Government&#8217;s greatest creative opportunity. By the adoption of these principles ... the taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest. Money will cease to be master and become the servant of humanity.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>In response to this statement, The Times of London publishes a propaganda piece obviously put out by the bankers, containing the following statement,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;If that mischievous financial policy, which had its origin in the North American Republic, should become indurated down to a fixture, then that government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off debts and be without a debt. It will have all the money necessary to carry on its commerce.</em></p><p><em>It will become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of civilized governments of the world. The brains and the wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1863</strong></h4><p>The bankers struck back. With President Lincoln needing further congressional authority to issue more Greenbacks, Lincoln was forced into allowing the bankers to push their, &#8220;National Banking Act,&#8221; through Congress.</p><p>The most important part of this Act was that from now on, the entire United States money supply would be created out of debt by the National Banks buying United States Government Bonds and issuing them for reserves for banknotes. On top of this monopoly, the National Banks were allowed to operate under a virtual tax free status. This banking scam is best explained by historian, John Kenneth Galbraith, who stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;In numerous years following the war, the Federal Government ran a heavy surplus. It could not however pay off its debt, retire its securities, because to do so meant there would be no bonds to back the national bank notes. To pay off the debt was to destroy the money supply.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg" width="160" height="319" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:319,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Tsar Alexander II&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Tsar Alexander II" title="Tsar Alexander II" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Ym3f!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F75156777-7a43-4ad3-8ef1-f695f7fe7197_160x319.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/Tsar.Alexander.II.jpg">Tsar Alexander II</a></strong></p><p>Later this year, <strong>Tsar Alexander II</strong> gave President Lincoln some unexpected help. The Tsar issued orders that if either England or France actively intervened in the American Civil War, and help the South, Russia would consider such action a declaration of war. To show that he wasn&#8217;t messing about, he sent part of his Pacific Fleet to port in San Francisco.</p><p>This wasn&#8217;t because the Tsar was benevolent towards America, instead he was very clever. He, like Otto Von Bismarck in Germany, could clearly see what the money changers were up to, indeed he had already refused to let them set up a Central Bank in Russia.</p><p>He understood if America was to come under the control of Britain or France, then America would be under the control of Central Bankers once again, and such an expansion of the bankers empire, would mean they would eventually

Booth</a></strong></p><p>On April 14th, 41 days after his second inauguration, and just 5 days after General Lee surrendered to General Grant at Appomattox, President Lincoln is shot by John Wilkes Booth, at Ford&#8217;s Theater. He would later die of his injuries. Subsequent allegations that international bankers were responsible for President Lincoln&#8217;s assassination, would be made in the Canadian House of Commons, nearly 70 years later in 1934.</p><p>The person who revealed this was a Canadian Attorney, Gerald G. McGeer. He had obtained evidence deleted from the public record provided to him by Secret Service Agents at the trial of John Wilkes Booth, after Booth&#8217;s death. McGeer stated that it showed that John Wilkes Booth was a mercenary working for the international bankers. His speech would be reported in an article in the Vancouver Sun, dated, 2nd May 1934, which stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Abraham Lincoln, the murdered emancipator of the slaves, was assassinated through the machinations of a group representative of the International Bankers, who feared the United States President&#8217;s National Credit ambitions. There was only one group in the world at that time who had any reason to desire the death of Lincoln. They were the men opposed to his national currency program and who had fought him throughout the whole Civil War on his policy of Greenback currency.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Gerald G. McGeer also stated that Lincoln&#8217;s assassination was not purely because the International Bankers wanted to re-establish a central bank in America, but also because they wanted to base America&#8217;s currency on gold, which they of course controlled. They wanted to put America on a Gold Standard. This was in direct opposition to President Lincoln&#8217;s policy of issuing Greenbacks, based solely on the good faith and credit of the United States.</p><p>The Vancouver Sun article also quoted Gerald G. McGeer with the following statement,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;They were the men interested in the establishment of the Gold Standard and the right of the bankers to manage the currency and credit of every nation in the world. With Lincoln out of the way they were able to proceed with that plan and did proceed with it in the United States. Within 8 years after Lincoln&#8217;s assassination, silver was demonetized and the Gold Standard system set up in the United States.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1866</strong></h4><p>The European central bankers wanted the re-institution of a central bank under their control and an American currency backed by gold. They chose gold as gold has always been relatively scarce and therefore a lot easier to monopolize, than, for example, silver, which was plentiful in the United States, and had been found in huge quantities with the opening of the American West.</p><p>So, on April 12th, Congress went back to work at the bidding of the European central bankers. It passed the, &#8220;<strong>Contraction Act</strong>,&#8221; which authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to contract the money supply by retiring some of the Greenbacks in circulation.</p><p>This money contraction and it&#8217;s disastrous results is explained by <strong>Theodore R. Thoren</strong> and <strong>Richard F. Walker</strong>, in their book, &#8220;The Truth In Money Book,&#8221; in which they state the following,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The hard times which occurred after the Civil War could have been avoided if the Greenback legislation had continued as President Lincoln had intended. Instead there were a series of money panics, what we call recessions, which put pressure on Congress to enact legislation to place the banking system under centralized control. Eventually the Federal Reserve Act was passed on December 23rd 1913.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>This is how the, &#8220;Contraction Act,&#8221; passed by Congress affected America (the money supply goes down purely because currency in circulation is being withdrawn):</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png" width="505" height="215.46666666666667" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:160,&quot;width&quot;:375,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:505,&quot;bytes&quot;:9639,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/188444979?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!cH_q!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F289da417-aa30-4bbf-8945-17cca1153ec1_375x160.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Therefore in the twenty years since 1866 two thirds of the American money supply had been called in by the bankers, representing a 760% loss in buying power over this twenty years. The money became scarce simply because bank loans were called in and no new ones were given.</p><h4><strong>Year 1872</strong></h4><p><strong>Ernest Seyd</strong> is sent to America on a mission from the Rothschild owned Bank of England. He is given $100,000 which he is to use to bribe as many Congressmen as necessary, for the purposes of getting silver demonetized, as it had been found in huge quantities in the American West, which would eat into Rothschild&#8217;s profits.<strong>1873</strong>Ernest Seyd obviously spent his money wisely, as Congress pass the, &#8220;<strong>Coinage Act</strong>,&#8221; which results in the minting of silver dollars being abruptly stopped. Furthermore, Representative Samuel Hooper, who introduced the bill in the house, even admitted that Ernest Seyd had actually drafted the legislation.</p><h4><strong>Year 1874</strong></h4><p>Ernest Seyd himself admitted who was behind the demonetizing of silver in America, when he makes the following statement,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I went to America in the winter of 1872-1873, authorized to secure, if I could, the passage of a bill demonetizing silver. It was in the interests of those I represented, the governors of the Bank Of England, to have it done. By 1873, gold coins were the only form of coin money.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1876</strong></h4><p>Due to the manipulation of the money supply in America, one third of the workforce is unemployed and unrest is growing. There are even calls for a return to Greenback money or silver money. As a result, Congress creates the, &#8220;United States Silver Commission,&#8221; to investigate the problem.</p><p>This commission clearly understood that the national bankers were the cause of the problem, with their deliberate contraction of the money supply. An excerpt of their report reads as follows,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The disaster of the Dark Ages was caused by decreasing money and falling prices ... Without money, civilization could not have had a beginning, and with a diminishing supply, it must languish, and unless relieved, finally perish. At the Christian era the metallic money of the Roman Empire amounted to $1,800,000,000. By the end of the 15th century it had shrunk to less than $200,000,000 ... History records no other such disastrous transition as that from the Roman Empire to the Dark Ages ...&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Despite this damning report from the commission, Congress took no action.</p><h4><strong>Year 1877</strong></h4><p>Rioting breaks out from Pittsburgh to Chicago. The bankers get together to decide what to do and they decided to hang on, as they knew that despite the violence, they were now firmly back in control. At the meeting of the American Bankers Association, they urged their membership to do everything in their power, to put down any notion of a return to Greenbacks.</p><p>The American Bankers Association secretary, James Buel, even wrote a letter to the members in which he blatantly called on the banks to subvert both Congress and the press. In this letter he stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;It is advisable to do all in your power to sustain such prominent daily and weekly newspapers, especially the Agricultural and Religious Press, as well as oppose the Greenback issue of paper money and that you will also withhold patronage from all applicants who are not willing to oppose the government issue of money ...</em></p><p><em>... To repeal the Act creating bank notes, or to restore to circulation issue of money will be to provide the people with money and will therefore seriously affect our individual profits as bankers and lenders. See your Congressman at once and engage him to support our interests that we may control legislation.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1878</strong></h4><p>James Buel&#8217;s letter clearly had some effect, as although pressure mounted in Congress for change, the press tried to turn the general public away from the truth. An example of this is from the New York Tribune in their 10th January edition in which is stated in a bankers propaganda piece,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The capital of the country is organized at last and we will see whether Congress will dare to fly in its face.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>This early control of the media didn&#8217;t work entirely nevertheless, as on February 28th Congress passed the, &#8220;Sherman Law.&#8221; This law allowed the minting of a limited number of silver dollars, ending the 5 year hiatus. However this did not mean that anyone who brought silver to the United States Mint could have it struck into silver dollars, free of charge, as in the period prior to Ernest Seyd&#8217;s Coinage Act, in 1873. Gold backing of the American currency also remained.</p><p>However, this Sherman Law did ensure that some money began to flow into the economy again, and coupled with the fact that the bankers now realized that they were still firmly in control, they started issuing loans again and the post Civil War depression was finally over.</p><h4><strong>Year 1881</strong></h4><div

Garfield</a></strong></p><p>The American people elect the Republican, <strong>James Garfield</strong> as the 20th President of the United States. This was a worry to the money changers, because as a Congressman, he had been Chairman of the Appropriations Committee, and was a member of Banking and Currency. The money changers were therefore aware that President Garfield was in full knowledge of their scam on the American people. Indeed following his inauguration, President Garfield stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Whosoever controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce ... And when you realize that the entire system is very easily controlled, one way or another, by a few powerful men at the top, you will not have to be told how periods of inflation and depression originate.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Strangely enough within a few weeks of making that statement, President Garfield was assassinated on 2nd July.</p><h4><strong>Year 1891</strong></h4><p>The money changers spent the last decade creating economic booms followed by depressions, so that they could buy up thousands of homes and farms for pennies on the dollar. They were preparing to take the economy down again in the near future, and in a shocking memo sent out by the <strong>American Bankers Association</strong>, which would come out in the Congressional Record more than twenty years later, the following is stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;On September 1st 1894 we will not renew our loans under any consideration. On September 1st we will demand our money.</em></p><p><em>We will foreclose and become mortgages in possession. We can take two-thirds of the farms west of the Mississippi, and thousands of them east of the Mississippi as well, at our own price ... Then the farmers will become tenants as in England ... ,&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>1891 American Bankers Association, as printed in the Congressional Record of April 29, 1913.</p><h4><strong>Year

campaign is the issue of more silver money. Senator <strong>William Jennings Bryan</strong> from Nebraska, a Democrat aged only 36, makes an emotional speech at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, entitled, &#8220;Crown Of Thorns And Cross Of Gold.&#8221; Senator Bryan stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;We will answer their demand for a gold standard by saying to them, you shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns, you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>The bankers naturally supported the Republican candidate, William McKinley who in return favored the gold standard. Furthermore those in the McKinley campaign, got manufacturers and industrialists to inform their employees that if Bryan were elected, all factories and plants would close and there would be no work.</p><p>This tactic succeeded, McKinley beat Bryan, albeit by a small margin.</p><h4><strong>Year 1898</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2

holds the wealth, which has in its grasp all labor and all trade, which manipulates for its own benefit and its own purposes all the sources of supply, and which is powerfully represented in the

Morgan&#8217;s father, Julius Morgan, had been America&#8217;s financial agent to the British, and after Julius&#8217; death, J. P. Morgan took on a British partner, Edward Grenville, who was a long time director of the Bank Of England.</p><p>This year was the year of the money changers attack. J. P. Morgan and his cohorts secretly crashed the stock market. They were aware that thousands of small banks were so vastly over extended, some only had reserves of 1% under the fraudulent fractional reserve principle. Within only a few days, bank runs became commonplace across the nation.</p><p>Morgan then stepped up and publicly announced that he would support these failing banks. What he failed to mention is that he would do this by manufacturing money out of nothing. And then what happened, surprise, surprise, Congress let him do it! So, Morgan manufactured $200,000,000 of this completely reserveless private money, purchased goods and services with it, and sent some of it to his branch banks to lend out at interest.</p><p>As a result, the general public regained confidence in money, but most importantly it meant the banking power was now further consolidated into the hands of a few large banks.</p><h4><strong>Year

Secondly the nations economy was so strong that corporations were starting to finance their own expansions out of profits instead of taking out huge loans from large banks. Indeed, in the first ten years of the century, 70% of corporate funding came from profits.</p><p>Basically, American Industry was becoming independent of the money changers, and the money changers were not about to let that happen.</p><p>There was also much discussion regarding the name of the new bank, which took place in a conference room in the Jekyll Island Club Hotel. Aldrich believed the word, &#8220;bank,&#8221; should not even appear in the name. Warburg wanted to call the legislation, the, &#8220;<strong>National Reserve Bill</strong>,&#8221; or the, &#8220;<strong>Federal Reserve Bill</strong>.&#8221; The idea was not only to give the impression that the purpose of the new central bank was to stop bank runs, but also to conceal its monopoly character.</p><p>However it was Senator Aldrich, the egomaniac, who insisted it be called the, &#8220;<strong>Aldrich Bill</strong>.&#8221; So, after nine days at Jekyll Island, the group dispersed. This group of conspirators immediately set up an educational fund of $5,000,000 to finance Professors at top universities to endorse the new bank.</p><p>The new central bank would be very similar to the old Bank Of The United States, in that it would be given a monopoly over United States currency and create that money out of nothing. Also in order to make the public think it was under control of the Government, the plan called for the central bank to be run by a board of governors appointed by the President and approved by the Senate.</p><p>This would not cause any undue problems for the bankers, as they knew they could use their money to buy influence over the politicians, in order to ensure the men they wanted got appointed to the board of governors.</p><h4><strong>Year 1912</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!g240!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb3072edf-419d-4fb8-b9ac-c88790cce2f9_160x163.gif" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!g240!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb3072edf-419d-4fb8-b9ac-c88790cce2f9_160x163.gif 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!g240!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb3072edf-419d-4fb8-b9ac-c88790cce2f9_160x163.gif 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!g240!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb3072edf-419d-4fb8-b9ac-c88790cce2f9_160x163.gif 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!g240!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb3072edf-419d-4fb8-b9ac-c88790cce2f9_160x163.gif 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!g240!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb3072edf-419d-4fb8-b9ac-c88790cce2f9_160x163.gif" width="320" height="326" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b3072edf-419d-4fb8-b9ac-c88790cce2f9_160x163.gif&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:163,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Charles A.

Lindbergh</strong></p><p>The Aldrich bill is presented to Congress for debate. This was very quickly identified as a bill to benefit the bankers, or an expression for them which was coined at the time, &#8220;<strong>The Money Trust</strong>.&#8221; During the debate, the Republican, <strong>Charles A. Lindbergh</strong> stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The Aldrich plan is the Wall Street Plan. It means another panic, if necessary, to intimidate the people. Aldrich, paid by the government to represent the people, proposes a plan for the trusts instead.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>As this debate continued on, the bankers realized they didn&#8217;t have enough support, so the Republican leadership never brought the Aldrich bill to a vote. Instead the bankers decided to switch their attention to the Democrats and started heavily financing Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic Presidential nominee. The Wall Street banker, <strong>Bernard Baruch</strong>, was put in charge of the Wilson project, and as historian, James Perloff, stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Baruch brought Wilson to the Democratic Party headquarters in New York in 1912, &#8216;leading him like one wood a poodle on a string.&#8217; Wilson received an, &#8216;indoctrination course,&#8217; from the leaders convened there ... &#8220;</em></p></blockquote><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Baruch</a></strong></p><p>During the Democratic Presidential campaign, Wilson and the rulers of the Democratic Party pretended to oppose the Aldrich bill. As Republican representative, <strong>Louis T. McFadden</strong>, explained twenty years later, when he was was Chairman Of The House Banking And Currency Committee,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The Aldrich Bill was condemned in the platform ... when Woodrow Wilson was nominated ... The men who ruled the Democratic Party promised the people that if they were returned to power there would be no central bank established here while they held the reins of government.</em></p><p><em>Thirteen months later that promise was broken, and the Wilson administration, under the tutelage of those sinister Wall Street figures who stood behind Colonel House, established here in our free country the worm-eaten monarchical institution of the, &#8216;King&#8217;s Bank,&#8217; to control us from the top downward, and to shackle us from the cradle to the grave.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>On November 5th, Woodrow Wilson was elected, and J. P. Morgan, Paul Warburg, Bernard Baruch et al, advanced a new plan which Warburg called the Federal Reserve System. The leadership of the Democratic Party hailed this new bill called the, &#8220;<strong>Glass-Owen Bill</strong>,&#8221; as totally different to the Aldrich bill, when in fact it was virtually identical.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!A0P1!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F190017e5-76db-4241-aa2b-e537451b6b7e_160x316.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!A0P1!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F190017e5-76db-4241-aa2b-e537451b6b7e_160x316.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!A0P1!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F190017e5-76db-4241-aa2b-e537451b6b7e_160x316.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!A0P1!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F190017e5-76db-4241-aa2b-e537451b6b7e_160x316.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!A0P1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F190017e5-76db-4241-aa2b-e537451b6b7e_160x316.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!A0P1!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F190017e5-76db-4241-aa2b-e537451b6b7e_160x316.jpeg" width="160" height="316" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/190017e5-76db-4241-aa2b-e537451b6b7e_160x316.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:316,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Louis T.

McFadden</a></strong></p><p>Funnily enough the Democrats were so vehement in their denial of the similarity of the, &#8220;Glass-Owen Bill,&#8221; to the, &#8220;Aldrich Bill,&#8221; that Paul Warburg, the creator of both bills, had to inform his paid friends in Congress, that the two bills were virtually identical and therefore they must vote to pass it. Warburg stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Brushing aside the external differences affecting the, &#8216;shells,&#8217; we find the, &#8216;kernels,&#8217; of the two systems very closely resembling and related to one another.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>However this admission by Warburg was not made public. Instead, Senator Aldrich, and Frank Vanderlip, the President of Rockefeller&#8217;s <strong>National Citibank of New York</strong>, were to publicly state their opposition to the bill in order to make people think that the bill proposed was radically different to the Aldrich bill. Indeed, Frank Vanderlip stated years later in the Saturday Evening Post,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Although the Aldrich Federal Reserve Plan was defeated when it bore the name Aldrich, nevertheless its essential points were all contained in the plan that finally was adopted.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1913</strong></h4><p>With Congress nearing a vote on the Glass-Owen Bill, they called Ohio Attorney, <strong>Alfred Crozier</strong>, to testify. However, Crozier noticed the similarities between the Aldrich Bill and the Glass-Owen Bill, and subsequently stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The ... bill grants just what Wall Street and the big banks for twenty-five years have been striving for - private instead of public control of currency. It (the Glass-Owen bill) does this as completely as the Aldrich bill. Both measures rob the government and the people of all effective control over the public&#8217;s money, and vest in the banks exclusively the dangerous power to make money among the people scarce or plenty.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>The debate on this bill was not going well for the banks, with many Senators intimating the bill was corrupt and deceitful, however the bill was approved through the Senate on December 22nd. How did this happen? Because most of the Senators had left town to return home for the Christmas holidays. Furthermore, these Senators had been assured by the leadership, that nothing would be done regarding this bill until long after the Christmas recess.</p><p>Representative Charles A Lindbergh Sr. stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;This Act establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President signs this bill, the invisible government of the monetary power will be legalized. The people may not know it immediately, but the day of reckoning is only a few years removed ... The worst legislative crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking and currency bill.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Interestingly, only a few weeks earlier, in October, Congress finally passed a bill legalizing direct income tax of the people. This was in the form of a bill pushed through by Senator Aldrich, which is now commonly known as the 16th amendment. The income tax law was fundamental to the Federal Reserve. This is because the Federal Reserve was a system which would run up, essentially, an unlimited Federal debt.</p><p>The only way to guarantee the payment of interest on this debt was to directly tax the people, as they had done with the Bank Of England. If the Federal Reserve had to rely on contributions from the States, they would be dealing with bigger entities, who could revolt and refuse to pay the interest on their own money, or at least bring political pressure to bear in order to keep the debt small.</p><p>Actually, this 16th amendment <strong>was never ratified</strong>, and therefore many American citizens do not pay their income tax and there is nothing the United States Government can do about it. For further information on this go to <a href="https://thelawthatneverwas.com/">thelawthatneverwas.com</a>. Also, back in 1895, the Supreme Court had also found an income tax law similar to the 16th amendment, as unconstitutional. The Supreme Court also found a Corporate Tax Law unconstitutional in 1909.</p><p>Another important amendment that was put through this year is the 17th amendment. This provided for the direct election by the people of two Senators from each state as oppose to the original system of having state legislatures elect United States Senators. More democratic, you would think, until you realize these bankers could now provide the funds for their hand picked people to run for the Senate, and thus avoid future problems like getting the Federal Reserve through the Senate.</p><p>Anyway, back to the Federal Reserve, if you are in any doubt as to whether the Federal Reserve is a private company, a basic check the public can carry out is in their phone book. Look under the government pages and it is not listed, but you will find it listed within the business pages.</p><p>Actually some recent evidence has come forward as to who really owns the Federal Reserve, and they are the following banks:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Rothschild Bank</strong> of London</p></li><li><p><strong>Warburg Bank</strong> of Hamburg</p></li><li><p>Rothschild Bank of Berlin</p></li><li><p><strong>Lehman Brothers</strong> of New York</p></li><li><p><strong>Lazard Brothers</strong> of Paris</p></li><li><p><strong>Kuhn Loeb Bank</strong> of New York</p></li><li><p><strong>Israel Moses Seif Banks</strong> of Italy</p></li><li><p><strong>Goldman, Sachs</strong> of New York</p></li><li><p>Warburg Bank of Amsterdam</p></li><li><p><strong>Chase Manhattan</strong> Bank of New York</p></li></ul><p>Also some argue that the Federal Reserve is a quasi-governmental agency, yet the President appoints only 2 of the 7 members of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, every four years, and he appoints them to 14 year terms, which is far longer than any term he could possibly serve as President. The Senate confirms these appointments, but as we have seen, that is the idea, because these are the very people hand picked by the bankers who also finance their campaigns, ensuring loyalty to them, not the people.</p><p><strong>Let&#8217;s summarize how the Federal Reserve creates money out of nothing. It is a four step process:</strong></p><ol><li><p>The <strong>Federal Open Market Committee</strong> approves the purchase of United States Bonds<strong>*</strong>.</p></li><li><p>The bonds are purchased by the Federal Reserve.</p></li><li><p>The Federal Reserve pays for these bonds with electronic credits to the seller&#8217;s bank, these credits are based on nothing.</p></li><li><p>The banks use these deposits as reserves. They can loan out over ten times the amount of their reserves to new borrowers, all at interest.<br><br><strong>*</strong> Bonds are simply promises to pay or Government IOU&#8217;s. People purchase bonds in order to get a secure rate of interest. At the end of the term of the bond, the government repays the bond, plus interest and the bond is destroyed.</p></li></ol><p>Let&#8217;s look at an example of how this works with a Federal Reserve purchase of $1,000,000 of bonds. This then gets turned into over $10,000,000 in bank accounts. The Federal Reserve in effect creates 10% of this totally new $10,000,000 and the banks create the other 90%.</p><p>To reduce the amount of money in circulation this process is simply reversed. The Federal Reserve sells these bonds to the public and the money flows out of the purchaser&#8217;s local bank. Loans must be reduced by ten times the amount of the sale, so a Federal Reserve sale of $1,000,000 in bonds, results in $10,000,000 less money in the economy. How does this benefit the bankers, whose representatives met at Jekyll Island?</p><ol><li><p>It prevented any future banking reform efforts, as the Federal Reserve was to be the only producer of money.</p></li><li><p>This in turn prevented a proper debt free system of government finance, like President Lincoln&#8217;s Greenbacks, from making a comeback. Instead, the bond based system of government finance, forced on Lincoln after he created Greenbacks, was now cast in stone.</p></li><li><p>It delegated to the bankers the right to create 90% of our money supply based on a fraudulent system of fractional reserve banking and allowed them to loan out that 90% at interest.</p></li><li><p>It centralized overall control of our nations money supply in the hands of and for the profits of a few men.</p></li><li><p>It established a private central bank with a high degree of independence from effective political control.</p></li></ol><h4><strong>Year 1914</strong></h4><p>The start of World War I. In this war, the German Rothschilds loaned money to the Germans, the British Rothschilds loaned money to the British, and the French Rothschilds loaned money to the French.</p><p>One year after the passage of the Federal Reserve Bill, Representative Charles A Lindbergh Sr., outlined how The Federal Reserve created the, &#8220;business cycle,&#8221; and how they manipulated that to their own advantage. He stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;To cause high prices, all the Federal Reserve Board will do will be to lower the rediscount rate ... , producing an expansion of credit and a rising stock market, then when ... businessmen are adjusted to these conditions, it can check ... prosperity in mid-career by arbitrarily raising the rate of interest.</em></p><p><em>It can cause the pendulum of a rising and falling market to swing gently back and forth by slight changes in the discount rate, or cause violent fluctuations by a greater rate variation, and in either case it will possess inside information as to financial conditions and advance knowledge of the coming change, either up or down. This is the strongest, most dangerous advantage ever placed in the hands of a special privilege class by any Government that ever existed.</em></p><p><em>The system is private, conducted for the sole purpose of obtaining the greatest possible profits from the use of other people&#8217;s money. They know in advance when to create panics to their advantage. They also know when to stop panic. Inflation and deflation work equally well for them when they control finance.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1915</strong></h4><p>J. P. Morgan became the sales agent for the, &#8220;<strong>War Materials Board</strong>,&#8221; to both the British and the French engaged in World War I, and becomes the biggest consumer on the planet, spending 10 million dollars a day. Furthermore, President Woodrow Wilson appointed banker, Bernard Baruch, to head the &#8220;<strong>War Industries Board</strong>.&#8221;</p><p>According to historian, <strong>James Perloff</strong>, both Bernard Baruch and the Rockefellers profited by approximately 200 million dollars during World War I.</p><p>A lot of people believe the key to an effective money supply is to ensure it is backed by something of worth such as gold. However, who do you think would control that gold? As Republican, Charles A. Lindbergh stated this year,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Already the Federal Reserve Banks have cornered the gold and gold certificates.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1916</strong></h4><p>President Wilson began to realize the gravity of the damage he had done to America, by unleashing the Federal Reserve on the American people. He stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled governments in the civilized world - no longer a government of free opinion, no longer a government by ... a vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.</em></p><p><em>Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1917</strong></h4><p>The money changers never forgave the Tsars of Russia for both continually opposing their request to set up a central bank in Russia, as well as their support of President Lincoln during the Civil War. Therefore, Jacob Schiff, a Rothschild, spent 20 million dollars through his firm, Kuhn, Loeb &amp; Co., in financing the <strong>Russian Revolution</strong>.</p><p>It is commonly believed that Communism is the opposite of Capitalism, so why would these capitalists support it? Respected researcher, Gary Allen, explains it as follows,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;If one understands that socialism is not a share-the-wealth program, but it is in reality a method to consolidate and control the wealth, then the seeming paradox of super-rich men promoting socialism becomes no paradox at all. Instead it becomes logical, even the perfect tool of power seeking megalomaniacs. Communism, or more accurately socialism, is not a movement of the downtrodden masses, but of the economic elite.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1919</strong></h4><p>In January the <strong>Paris Peace Conference</strong> takes place following the end of World War I. The bankers put World Government at the top of their agenda, and Paul Warburg and Bernard Baruch attend this conference with President Wilson. To the bankers dismay, the world was not yet ready to dissolve national boundaries and accept World Government, so that part of their plan had failed.</p><p>The plan for World Government was called the, &#8220;<strong>League Of Nations</strong>,&#8221; and although many nations accepted this proposal, the United States Congress would not support it, and thus without the support of money from the United States Treasury, the bankers had failed and the League Of Nations died.</p><h4><strong>Year 1920</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F11C!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8d91b06b-2afd-4fb1-b090-cb4da3db2b00_160x214.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F11C!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8d91b06b-2afd-4fb1-b090-cb4da3db2b00_160x214.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F11C!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8d91b06b-2afd-4fb1-b090-cb4da3db2b00_160x214.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F11C!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8d91b06b-2afd-4fb1-b090-cb4da3db2b00_160x214.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F11C!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8d91b06b-2afd-4fb1-b090-cb4da3db2b00_160x214.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!F11C!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8d91b06b-2afd-4fb1-b090-cb4da3db2b00_160x214.jpeg" width="160" height="214" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/8d91b06b-2afd-4fb1-b090-cb4da3db2b00_160x214.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:214,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Warren G.

<strong>John Hylan</strong>, who had been reported in the same paper the previous day, March 26th, with the following statement,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The warning of Theodore Roosevelt has much timeliness today, for the real menace of our republic is this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state, and nation ... It seizes in its long and powerful tentacles our executive officers, our legislative bodies, our schools, our courts, our newspapers, and every agency created for the public protection ...</em></p><p><em>To depart from mere generalizations, let me say that at the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller-Standard Oil interest and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as international bankers. This little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States Government for their own selfish purposes.</em></p><p><em>They practically control both parties, write political platforms, make cats paws of party leaders, use the leading men of private organizations, and resort to every device to place in nomination for high public office only such candidates as will be amenable to the dictates of corrupt big business ... these International Bankers and Rockefeller-Standard Oil interests control the majority of newspapers and magazines in this country.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1923</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Coolidge</a></strong></p><p>On August 2nd, President Warren Harding died on a train in mysterious circumstances. The cause was given as either food poisoning or a stroke although no autopsy was performed. He was succeeded by his Vice-President <strong>Calvin Coolidge</strong>. President Coolidge continued Harding&#8217;s tax cutting and tariff raising policies.</p><p>This policy was so successful that the economy still continued to grow, and the huge Federal Debt built up during World War I, under Harding and Coolidge was reduced by 38% down to 16 billion dollars. This was when the Federal Reserve started flooding the country with money, increasing the money supply by 62%.</p><p>Representative Charles A Lindbergh Sr. stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The financial system ... has been turned over to ... the Federal Reserve Board. That board administers the finance system by authority of ... a purely profiteering group. The system is private, conducted for the sole purpose of obtaining the greatest possible profits, from the use of other people&#8217;s money.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1924</strong></h4><p>Shortly before his death this year, President Woodrow Wilson made the following statement in relation to his support for the Federal Reserve,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I have unwittingly ruined my country.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1927</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank"

Rockefeller</a></strong></p><p>In April, Paul Warburg sent out a secret warning to his friends that a collapse and nationwide depression had been planned for later that year. It is certainly no coincidence that the biographies of all the Wall Street giants of that era: <strong>John D. Rockefeller</strong>; J. P. Morgan; <strong>Joseph Kennedy</strong>; Bernard Baruch; et al, all marveled at the fact these people got out of the stock market completely just before the crash and put their assets into cash or gold.</p><p>So, as all the bankers and their friends already knew, in August the Federal Reserve began to tighten the money supply. Then on 24th October the big New York bankers called in their 24 hour broker call loans. This meant that both the stockbrokers and their customers had to dump their stocks on the stock market to cover their loans, irrespective of what price they had to sell them for.</p><p>As a result of this the stock market crashed on a day that would go down in history as, &#8220;<strong>Black Thursday</strong>.&#8221; In his book, The Great Crash 1929, <strong>John Kenneth Gailbraith</strong> makes the following shocking statement,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;At the height of the selling frenzy, Bernard Baruch brought Winston Churchill into the visitors gallery of the New York Stock Exchange to witness the panic and impress him with his power over the wild events on the floor.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Republican Congressman, Louis T McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking &amp; Currency Committee, from 1920 to 1931, was as usual quite candid as to who was responsible. He stated of this crash,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;It was not accidental. It was a carefully contrived occurrence ... The international bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair here so that they might emerge as rulers of us all.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg" width="160" height="433" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:433,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Joseph Kennedy&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Joseph Kennedy" title="Joseph Kennedy" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!foAE!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7a6bafaa-cc5e-4804-8055-09d5244d4b5b_160x433.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/img/Joseph.Kennedy.jpg">Joseph Kennedy</a></strong></p><p><strong>Curtis B.

Between 1929 and 1933, they reduced the money supply by an additional 33%. Even, <strong>Milton Friedman</strong>, the Nobel Peace Prize winning economist stated the following in a radio interview in January 1996,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The Federal Reserve definitely caused the Great Depression by contracting the amount of currency in circulation by one-third from 1929 to 1933.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

Friedman</a></p><p>In only a few weeks from the day of the crash, 3 billion dollars of wealth vanished. Within a year, 40 billion dollars of wealth vanished. However, it did not simply disappear, it just ended up consolidated in fewer and fewer hands, as was planned. An example of this is Joseph P. Kennedy, John F. Kennedy&#8217;s father. In 1929 he was worth 4 million dollars, in 1935 that had increased to over 100 million dollars.</p><p>This is why depressions are caused. As stated previously the top bankers and their friends got out of the stock market and purchased gold just before the crash, which they shipped over to London. This meant that the money lost by most Americans during the crash didn&#8217;t just vanish, it just ended up in these people&#8217;s hands.</p><p>It also was spent overseas, as whilst the Great Depression was occurring, millions of American dollars was being spent on rebuilding Germany from damage sustained during World War I, in preparation for the bankers World War II. Republican Louis T. McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking &amp; Currency Committee from 1920 to 1931, stated the following in relation to this,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;After World War I, Germany fell into the hands of the German International Bankers. Those bankers bought her and now they own her, lock, stock, and barrel. They have purchased her industries, they have mortgages on her soil, they control her production, they control all her public utilities.</em></p><p><em>The international German bankers have subsidized the present Government of Germany and they have also supplied every dollar of the money Adolph Hitler has used in his lavish campaign to build up a threat to the government of Bruening. When Bruening fails to obey the orders of the German International Bankers, Hitler is brought forth to scare the Germans into submission ...</em></p><p><em>Through the Federal Reserve Board over 30 billion of dollars of American money ... has been pumped into Germany ... You have all heard of the spending that has taken place in Germany ... modernistic dwellings, her great planetariums, her gymnasiums, her swimming pools, her fine public highways, her perfect factories.</em></p><p><em>All this was done on our money. All this was given to Germany through the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board ... has pumped so many billions of dollars into Germany that they dare not name the total.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>The money pumped in to Germany to build her up in preparation for World War II, was into the German <strong>Thyssen banks</strong> which were affiliated with the <strong>Harriman</strong> interest in New York.</p><h4><strong>Year

Young</strong> (Rothschild agent, founder of <strong>RCA</strong> and Chairman of <strong>General Electric</strong> from 1922 until 1939), and Hjalmar Schacht of Germany (President of the <strong>Reichsbank</strong>).</p><p>The BIS is referred to the bankers as the, &#8220;Central bank for the central banks.&#8221; Whereas the IMF and the World Bank deal with governments, the BIS deals only with other central banks. All its meetings are held in secret and involve the top central bankers from around the world. For example the former head of the Federal Reserve, <strong>Alan Greenspan</strong>, would go to the BIS headquarters in Basel, Switzerland, ten times a year for these private meetings.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0Diu!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7b3ebcc4-b933-44ab-b578-c8c2d278d471_160x344.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0Diu!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7b3ebcc4-b933-44ab-b578-c8c2d278d471_160x344.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0Diu!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7b3ebcc4-b933-44ab-b578-c8c2d278d471_160x344.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0Diu!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7b3ebcc4-b933-44ab-b578-c8c2d278d471_160x344.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0Diu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7b3ebcc4-b933-44ab-b578-c8c2d278d471_160x344.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0Diu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7b3ebcc4-b933-44ab-b578-c8c2d278d471_160x344.jpeg" width="160" height="344" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/7b3ebcc4-b933-44ab-b578-c8c2d278d471_160x344.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:344,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Charles G.

McFadden, Republican Congressman and Chairman of the House Banking &amp; Currency Committee from 1920 to 1931 stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Through the Fed the people are losing their rights guaranteed to them by the Constitution ... common decency requires us to examine the public accounts of the government and see what kind of crimes against the public welfare have been committed ... the people of these United States are being greatly wronged ...</em></p><p><em>Every effort has been made by the Fed to conceal its powers-but truth is-the Fed has usurped the Government ... the sack of these United States by the Fed is the greatest crime in history ... what King ever robbed his subject to such an extent as the Fed has robbed us ... it is a monstrous thing for this great nation of people to have its destinies presided over by a traitorous government board acting in secret concert with international usurer.</em></p><p><em>When the Fed was passed, the people of these United States did not perceive that a world system was being set up here ... a super state controlled by international bankers, and international industrialists acting together to enslave the world for their own pleasure.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1935</strong></h4><p>All the gold held by American citizens had finally been turned in under President Roosevelt&#8217;s 1933 confiscation order at the price of $20-66 an ounce. Without explanation the official price of gold was then raised to $35 per ounce. The only catch was that only foreigners could sell their gold at the new higher price. Where is the world price of gold set? Since 1919, in the same room of private bank N. M. Rothschild &amp; Sons in London, at 11:00 a.m., on a daily basis.</p><p>Therefore Warburg and his banking friends who put their money into gold at $20-66 before the stock market crash and shipped it to London, could now ship it back and sell it to the United States Government for the new higher price. The money changers have a golden rule,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;He who has the gold, makes the rules.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>President Roosevelt orders the building of a new gold bullion depository to hold the vast amount of gold the United States government had illegally confiscated. That depository was <strong>Fort Knox</strong>.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg" width="500" height="390" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:390,&quot;width&quot;:500,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Fort Knox&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Fort Knox" title="Fort Knox" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JUnq!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd2110807-7c33-45f2-a676-b9e7f2518644_500x390.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Fort Knox</strong></p><h4><strong>Year 1936</strong></h4><p>On October 3, Republican Congressman, Louis T McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking &amp; Currency Committee, from 1920 to 1931, is poisoned to death. This was the third assassination attempt on his life, he had suffered an earlier poisoning and had had shots fired at him.</p><p>He had been trying for years to get the Federal Reserve, and as you will have read thus far, had made very revealing statements about the Federal Reserve. He had been warned to back off, but this great American Patriot, put the people he represented before himself, as all elected officials are supposed to do, and was killed by the bankers as a result.</p><h4><strong>Year 1937</strong></h4><p>With Fort Knox having been completed only the previous year, the gold now began to flow into it.</p><h4><strong>Year 1938</strong></h4><p>With the Federal Reserve having been in control of the United States economy for 25 years under the pretext of promoting monetary stability, it has caused three major economic downturns including the Great Depression. As Nobel Prize winning economist Milton Friedman put it,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The stock of money, prices and output was decidedly more unstable after the establishment of the Reserve System than before. The most dramatic period of instability in output was, of course, the period between the two wars, which includes the severe (monetary) contractions of 1920-21, 1929-33, and 1937-38. No other 20 year period in American history contains as many as three such severe contractions.</em></p><p><em>This evidence persuades me that at least a third of the price rise during and just after World War I is attributable to the establishment of the Federal Reserve System ... and that the severity of each of the major contractions - 1920-21, 1929-33, and 1937-38 - is directly attributable to acts of commission and omission by the Reserve authorities ...</em></p><p><em>Any system which gives so much power and so much discretion to a few men, (so) that mistakes - excusable or not - can have such far reaching effects is a bad system. It is a bad system to believers in freedom just because it gives a few men such power without any effective check by the body politic - this is the key political argument against an independent central bank ... To paraphrase Clemenceau money is much too serious a matter to be left to the central bankers.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Milton Friedman would also state,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I know of no severe depression, in any country or any time that was not accompanied by a sharp decline in the stock of money, and equally of no sharp decline in the stock of money that was not accompanied by a severe depression.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1941</strong></h4><p>Sir Josiah Stamp, director of the Bank of England during the years 1928-1941, made the following statement with regard to banking,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is perhaps the most astounding piece of sleight of hand that was ever invented. Banking was conceived in iniquity and born in sin. Bankers own the Earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough money to buy it back again ...</em></p><p><em>Take this great power away from them and all great fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for then this would be a better and happier world to live in. But if you want to continue to be slaves of the banks and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let bankers continue to create money and control credit.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year

Dexter White</a></strong></p><p>The United States income is running at 183 billion dollars, yet 103 billion dollars is being spent on World War II. This was thirty times the spending rate during World War I. Actually, it was the American taxpayer that picked up 55% of the total allied cost of the war.</p><p>In Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the World Bank (initially called the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development or IBRD - the name, &#8220;World Bank,&#8221; was not actually adopted until 1975), were approved with full United States participation.</p><p>The principal architects of the Bretton Woods system, and hence the IMF, were <strong>Harry Dexter White</strong> and <strong>John Maynard Keynes</strong>. Interestingly Harry Dexter White who died in 1946, was identified as a Soviet spy whose code name was, &#8220;Jurist,&#8221; on October 16, 1950, in an FBI memo. Also, John Maynard Keynes was a British citizen.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Maynard Keynes</a></strong></p><p>What these two bodies essentially did, was repeat on a world scale what the National Banking Act of 1864, and the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 had established in the United States. They created a banking cartel comprising the world&#8217;s privately owned central banks, which gradually assumed the power to dictate credit policies to the banks of all nations.</p><p>In the same way the Federal Reserve Act authorized the creation of a new national fiat currency called, Federal Reserve Notes, the IMF has been given the authority to issue a world fiat money called, &#8220;<strong>Special Drawing Rights</strong>,&#8221; or SDR&#8217;s. Member nations were subsequently pressured into making their currencies fully exchangeable for SDR&#8217;s.</p><p>The IMF is controlled by its board of governors, which are either the heads of different central banks, or the heads of the various national treasury departments who are dominated by their central banks. Also, the voting power in the IMF gives the United States and the United Kingdom (the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England), effective control of it.</p><h4><strong>Year 1945</strong></h4><p>The second, &#8220;League Of Nations,&#8221; now renamed the &#8220;<strong>United Nations</strong>,&#8221; was approved. The bankers, World War II, had been a success this time as a result of the physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion the world had felt after yet another World War. This blueprint for world government would soon have its own international court system as well.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg" width="500" height="473" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:473,&quot;width&quot;:500,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;United Nations&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="United Nations" title="United Nations" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!NU86!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F97f90559-880f-4f02-9404-03bb8cffec7a_500x473.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>United Nations</strong></p><h4><strong>Year 1946</strong></h4><p>The Bank of England was nationalized, which might seem at first sight to be a far reaching measure, but actually made little difference in practice. Yes, the state did acquire all the shares in the Bank of England, they now belong to the Treasury and are held in trust by the Treasury Solicitor.</p><p>However, the government had no money to pay for the shares, so instead of receiving money for their shares, the shareholders were issued with government stocks. Although the state now received the operating profits of the bank, this was offset by the fact that the government now had to pay interest on the new stocks it had issued to pay for the shares.</p><p>So, although the Bank of England is now state-owned, the fact is that the British money supply is once again almost entirely in private hands, with 97% of it being in the form of interest bearing loans of one sort or another, created by private commercial banks.</p><p>As a result of this, the bank is largely controlled and run by those from the world of commercial banking and conventional economics. The members of the Court of Directors, who set policy and oversee its functions, are drawn almost entirely from the world of banks, insurance, economists and big business.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg" width="400" height="300" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:300,&quot;width&quot;:400,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Bank of England&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Bank of England" title="Bank of England" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KOb9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2a8b5f6d-6fe6-4390-ad5f-931c3d3034ed_400x300.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Bank of England</strong></p><p>Although the Bank of England is called a central bank it is now essentially a regulatory body that supports and oversees the existing system.

bills carrying a red seal, and called United States Note. A lot of people believe he was already printing his own debt free money and that is why he was killed, in much the same way as President Lincoln. However, these United States Notes carrying the red seal were merely a reissue of the Greenbacks introduced by President Lincoln.</p><p>What could have been motive though, is that on June 4, President Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 11110 that returned to the United States government the power to issue currency, without going through the Federal Reserve. This order gave the Treasury the power to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury. This meant that for every ounce of silver in the United States Treasury&#8217;s vault, the government could introduce new debt free money into circulation.</p><h4><strong>Year 1967</strong></h4><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg" width="160" height="189" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:189,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Wright Patman&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Wright Patman" title="Wright Patman" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tWFP!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dd48552-ed09-47e9-85d6-fa32e4458f8e_160x189.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Wright Patman</strong></p><p>Congressman <strong>Wright Patman</strong>, then the Chairman Of The <strong>House Banking And Currency Committee</strong>, stated in Congress,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;In the United States today, we have in effect two governments ...

S. Treasury owned no gold at all. All the gold that was left in Fort Knox was now owned by the Federal Reserve, a group of private bankers, as collateral against the National Debt.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 1983</strong></h4><p>In order that <strong>Ecuador</strong>&#8216;s government be allowed a loan of 1.5 billion dollars from the IMF, they were forced to take over the unpaid private debts Ecuador&#8217;s elite owed to private banks. Furthermore in order to ensure Ecuador could pay back this loan, the IMF dictated price hikes in electricity and other utilities. When that didn&#8217;t give the IMF enough cash they ordered Ecuador to sack 120,000 workers.</p><p>Ecuador were required to do a variety of things under a timetable imposed by the IMF. These included: raising the price of cooking gas by 80% by 1st of November 2000; transferring the ownership of its biggest water system to foreign operators; granting <strong>British Petroleum</strong> the rights to build and own an oil pipeline over the Andes; and eliminating the jobs of more workers and reducing the wages of those remaining by 50%.</p><h4><strong>Year 1985</strong></h4><p>In order to illustrate that the great majority of money is not even printed these days, please see the following speech by the late <strong>Lord Beswick</strong> which appeared in HANSARD, 27th November 1985, vol. 468, columns 935-939, under the title, &#8220;Money Supply and the Private Banking System,&#8221; which states,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Lord Beswick rose to call attention to the statement made by the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster on 23rd July 1985 that the 96.9 per cent increase in money supply over a five-year period has been created by the private banking system and without Government authority.</em></p><p><em>The noble Lord said, &#8216;My Lords, on 10th June this year I asked Her Majesty&#8217;s Government by what amount the money supply had increased in the five-year period to mid-April 1985. Interestingly, they gave me the answer in percentages and not in pounds. Having given him prior notice, perhaps the Minister would be good enough later to give me the answer in money terms.</em></p><p><em>The Government reply on 10th June was that the increase had been by 101.9 per cent, and that of that very large amount only 5 per cent was accounted for by the state minting of more coins and the printing of more notes. That 96.9 per cent increase represented not only an enormous sum of money but also a crucially important factor in our economy.</em></p><p><em>I wanted to know by whom it had been created, and on 23rd July I again asked Her Majesty&#8217;s Government to what extent this increase had Government approval. I was told by the Chancellor of the Duchy, speaking for the Government, &#8216;The 96.9 per cent represented new bank deposits created in the normal course of banking business and no Government authority is necessary for this.&#8217;</em></p><p><em>Had he said that some counterfeiter of coins or forger of notes had been at work there would of course have been an immediate and indignant outcry, yet here we have a government statement that private institutions have created this enormous amount of extra purchasing power and we are expected to accept that it is normal practice and that the government authority does not come into it.</em></p><p><em>When I asked whether we ought not to consider more deeply who was benefiting from this money-creating power, the Minister said that the implications, though interesting, were maybe too far reaching for Question Time, and so I raise the matter again in debate and hope to get more enlightenment.</em></p><p><em>The issues are important, they are certainly under-discussed, perhaps not adequately understood, and I hope that I am not being unduly unfair if I say that those who understand the mechanisms often do very well out of them. I make no party point; it is all much bigger and wider than that.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Notice how the <strong>Chancellor of the Duchy</strong> gave the game away when he said that no government authority was needed for this present system of credit creating.</p><h4><strong>Year 1987</strong></h4><p><strong>Edmond de Rothschild</strong> creates the <strong>World Conservation Bank</strong> which is designed to transfer debts from third world countries to this bank and in return those countries would give land to this bank.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 image2-align-right" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif" width="320" height="493.2110091743119" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:168,&quot;width&quot;:109,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Edmond de Rothschild&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;right&quot;,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Edmond de Rothschild" title="Edmond de Rothschild" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2iF9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc48b2c63-9234-4744-a442-5d3abfa97c4c_109x168.gif 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>This is designed so the Rothschilds can gain control of the third world which represents 30% of the land surface of the Earth.</p><p><strong>1988 </strong>The three arms of the World Central Bank, the World Bank, the BIS and the IMF, now generally referred to as the World Central Bank, through their BIS arm, require the world&#8217;s bankers to raise their capital and reserves to 8% of their liabilities by 1992. This increased capital requirement put an upper limit on fractional reserve lending.</p><p>To raise the money, the world&#8217;s bankers had to sell stocks which depressed their individual stock markets and began depressions in those countries. For example in Japan, one of the countries with the lowest capital in reserve, the value of its stock market crashed by 50%, and its commercial real estate crashed by 60%, within two years.</p><p>The idea is for the IMF to create more and more SDR&#8217;s backed by nothing, in order for struggling nations to borrow them. These nations will then gradually come under the control of the IMF as they struggle to pay the interest, and have to borrow more and more. The IMF will then decide which nations can borrow more and which will starve. They can also use this as leverage to take state owned assets like utilities as payment against the debt until they eventually own the nation states.</p><h4><strong>Year 1991</strong></h4><div

The company blames the weather in the Pacific Ocean for the blackouts, when Rio is on the Atlantic. The blackouts wouldn&#8217;t have anything to do with the fact that after privatization Rio Light axed 40% of the company&#8217;s workforce would it? No problem for Rio Light, as a result of that their share price went up 33%.</p><h4><strong>Year 2000</strong></h4><p>The IMF require <strong>Argentina</strong> to cut the government budget deficit from its current $5.3 billion to $4.1 billion the following year, 2001. At that point unemployment was running at 20% of the working population. They then upped the ante and demanded an elimination of the deficit. The IMF had some ideas of how this could be achieved. Cut the government&#8217;s emergency employment program from $200 a month to $160 a month.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 image2-align-right"

in salaries for civil servants and the cutting of pensions to the elderly by 13%. By December of 2001, middle class Argentineans sick of literally hunting the streets for garbage to eat, started burning down Buenos Aires. In January Argentina devalued the Peso wiping out the value of many common people&#8217;s savings accounts. Dismayed that they can&#8217;t rape that country further, <strong>James Wolfensohn</strong>, President of the World Bank, states,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Almost all major utilities have been privatized.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>How do they control the unrest within the population? Let me see, an Argentinean bus driver, a thirty seven year old father of five, lost his job as a bus driver from a company that owed him 9 months pay. During a demonstration against this and other injustices perpetrated upon him and the population, the military police shot him dead with a bullet through the head.</p><p>In <strong>Tanzania</strong> with approximately 1.3 million people dying of AIDS, the World Bank and the IMF decided to require Tanzania to charge for what were previously free hospital appointments. They also ordered Tanzania to charge school fees for their previously free education system then expressed surprise when school enrolment dropped from 80% to 66%.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 image2-align-right" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg" width="160" height="115" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:115,&quot;width&quot;:160,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Tanzania&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;right&quot;,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Tanzania" title="Tanzania" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!SLdI!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2623aa68-9950-4d25-864f-35b90f59b42a_160x115.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>The IMF and World Bank have been in charge of Tanzania&#8217;s economy since 1985 during which time Tanzania&#8217;s GDP dropped from $309 to $210 per capita, standards of literacy fell and the rate of abject poverty increased to envelop 51% of the population.When the IMF and World Bank took charge in 1985, Tanzania was a socialist nation.

The World Bank claim this is necessary to provide for desperately needed repairs and expansion.

World Bank, and former Chairman of President Clinton&#8217;s Council of Economic Advisers, goes public over the World Bank&#8217;s, &#8220;<strong>Four Step Strategy</strong>,&#8221; which is designed to enslave nations to the bankers. I summarize this below,</p><blockquote><p><em><strong>Step One: Privatization.</strong><br>This is actually where national leaders are offered 10% commissions to their secret Swiss bank accounts in exchange for them trimming a few billion dollars off the sale price of national assets. Bribery and corruption, pure and simple.</em></p><p><em><strong>Step Two: Capital Market Liberalization.</strong> <br>This is the repealing any laws that taxes money going over its borders. Stiglitz calls this the, &#8220;hot money,&#8221; cycle. Initially cash comes in from abroad to speculate in real estate and currency, then when the economy in that country starts to look promising, this outside wealth is pulled straight out again, causing the economy to collapse.</em></p><p><em>The nation then requires IMF help and the IMF provides it under the pretext that they raise interest rates anywhere from 30% to 80%. This happened in Indonesia and Brazil, also in other Asian and Latin American nations. These higher interest rates consequently impoverish a country, demolishing property values, savaging industrial production and draining national treasuries.</em></p><p><em><strong>Step Three: Market Based Pricing.</strong> <br>This is where the prices of food, water and domestic gas are raised which predictably leads to social unrest in the respective nation, now more commonly referred to as, &#8220;IMF Riots.&#8221; These riots cause the flight of capital and government bankruptcies. This benefits the foreign corporations as the nations remaining assets can be purchased at rock bottom prices.</em></p><p><em><strong>Step Four: Free Trade.</strong> <br>This is where international corporations burst into Asia, Latin America and Africa, whilst at the same time Europe and America barricade their own markets against third world agriculture.

In fact the IMF and World Bank have made the sale of electricity, water, telephone and gas systems a condition of loans to every developing nation.

Following sympathy from the guards, the coup falls apart and President Chavez is back in his office one day later. Interestingly he has video evidence that whilst he was imprisoned on that base a United States military attach&#233; entered the base.</p><p>President Chavez, demonized by the controlled western media, gives milk and housing to the poor, and gives land not used for production by big plantation owners for more than two years, to those without land. His big crime however, was in passing a petroleum law that doubled the royalty taxes from 16% to 30% on new oil discoveries, which affected Exxon Mobil and other international oil operators.</p><p>He also took full control of the state oil company, PDVSA, which before was nominally owned by the government, but in actual fact was in thrall to these international oil operators. Not only that but President Chavez is also the President of <strong>OPEC</strong> (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries). The main reason is, however, that President Chavez fully rejects the World Bank&#8217;s, &#8220;Four Step Strategy,&#8221; and plan to reduce wages of the people for the benefit of the bankers.</p><p>Indeed President Chavez has increased the minimum wage by 20%, which has increased the purchasing power of the lower paid workers and strengthened the economy. His minister, <strong>Miguel Bustamante Madriz</strong>, fully aware of the danger Venezuela poses to the bankers when people contrast the fact it wouldn&#8217;t let them in, for example, with Argentina who did, stated,</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;America can&#8217;t let us stay in power. We are an exception to the new globalization order. If we succeed, we are an example to all the Americas.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Year 2006</strong></h4><p>America and Britain is now at war in both <strong>Afghanistan</strong> and <strong>Iraq</strong>, and looking toward an invasion of <strong>Iran</strong>. As I mentioned before the greatest debt generator of them all is war. This has pushed America to the brink of financial collapse. This timeline is intended as a record of the past, but before you look at the conclusions, you may like to look at one person&#8217;s prediction for the near future in <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111030055732/http://bellaciao.org/en/article.php3?id_article=9995">this mind-blowing article</a>.</p><h2><strong>Conclusions</strong></h2><p>While much more has happened in the last 20 years not covered by this stack&#8212;this should be sufficient to paint the picture of what humanity is dealing with. In my research, I have discovered those critics who currently condemn the monetary system almost universally suggest that the only solution is to restore a gold backed currency. I don&#8217;t think any readers of this timeline can be in any doubt, that such a system will be open to abuse by those very people who abuse it today. Indeed if we introduced a currency backed by chairs, I believe we would find ourselves with nothing to sit on!</p><p>The only monetary system that seems to have worked in history is one which is backed by the goodwill of a government and is debt free, such as President Lincoln&#8217;s, &#8220;Greenbacks.&#8221; Fortunately, the Nobel Peace Prize winning economist, Milton Friedman came up with an ingenious solution of wresting back control of the money supply from the bankers, paying off all outstanding debt, and preventing inflation or deflation whilst this process is completed. I summarize this below.</p><p>Using America as the example here, Friedman suggests that debt free United States notes be issued to pay off the United States Bonds (debts) on the open market. In conjunction with this, the reserve requirements of the day to day bank the regular person banks with, be proportionally raised so the mount of money in circulation remains constant.</p><p>As those people holding bonds are paid off in United States notes, they will deposit the money in the bank they bank with, thus making available the currency then needed by these banks to increase their reserves. Once all these United States bonds are paid off with United States notes, the banks will be at 100% reserve banking instead of the fractional reserve system and then fractional reserve banking can be outlawed.</p><p>If necessary, the remaining liabilities of financial institutions could be assumed or acquired by the United States government in a one-off operation. Therefore these institutions would eventually be paid off with United States notes for the purpose of keeping the total money supply stable.</p><p>The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 and the National Banking Act of 1864 must be repealed and all monetary power transferred back to the Treasury Department. The effects of this will be seen very soon by the average person as their taxes would start to go down as they would no longer be paying interest on debt based money to a criminal central banking cartel.</p><p>A law must be passed to ensure that no banker or any person in any way affiliated with financial institutions, be allowed to regulate banking. Also the United States must withdraw from all international debt based central banking operations ie. the IMF; the BIS; and the World Bank.</p><p>If all the countries of the world adopted the conclusions above, then humanity will at last be free of these central bankers and their debt based currency. It&#8217;s a lovely idea, but first we have to get it past our corrupt and controlled politicians, many of whom are quite aware of the scam that plays us on a daily basis, however rather than do the job we have elected them to do, they keep their mouths shut and instead look after themselves, whilst the rest of us are exploited.</p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;For what will it profit men that a more prudent distribution and use of riches make it possible for them to gain even the whole world, if thereby they suffer the loss of their own souls? What will it profit to teach them sound principles in economics, if they permit themselves to be so swept away by selfishness, by unbridled and sordid greed, that, &#8216;hearing the Commandments of the Lord, they do all things contrary.&#8221;</em></p><p><em>Pope Pius XI</em></p></blockquote><h2><strong>Sources</strong></h2><ul><li><p>The Life Of William Ewart Gladstone, John Morley 1903</p></li><li><p>Secrets Of The Federal Reserve, Eustace Mullins 1952</p></li><li><p>The Great Crash 1929, John Kenneth Gailbraith 1955</p></li><li><p>F.

And if it does, what would it actually look like? So...here are my thoughts. </p><p>I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s about if; rather, it&#8217;s about when. It could be six months, or it could be three years, but it will happen. If you&#8217;ve been paying attention, you recognize that that this process has been in motion for years now. It&#8217;s the plan of the &#8220;elite&#8221; cabal to reset us into the next iteration of their control (digital slavery) system. Currencies always reset eventually anyway, but this time it will be a hell of a lot different because it will involve the introduction of a whole new type of money, a CBDC, Central Bank Digital Currency, which is not freely fungible like existing money. </p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Please review my FREE archive and SHARE.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p>It&#8217;s tracked by default, and it supports controls on where and how you can spend it. So it&#8217;s controlled money. It&#8217;s money with strings attached. Now, that doesn&#8217;t mean that it will be overtly controlled on day one, but it can be, and that is the ultimate goal.  It&#8217;s money designed to carry conditions if and when the system wants to impose them&#8212;a disgustingly dystopian permission-based system. Their ultimate goal is the ability to tell you what you can do and where you can go, based upon your carbon and social scores&#8212;your compliance with their mandates, whatever they may be. Complete slavery in disguise.</p><p>When the full &#8220;reset&#8221; happens, it will not be quiet, I don&#8217;t think, and it will not be voluntary. It will be forced by a crisis (it always is), and it will be framed as such because the public won&#8217;t accept it otherwise.  So, what will that crisis be? It will be based on some combination of economic issues, of course. The US debt problem and persistent stagflation are coupled with a loss of confidence in the US dollar and the country&#8217;s ability to fund itself.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg" width="572" height="297" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:162,&quot;width&quot;:312,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:572,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JdmX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff0fb94ea-54d8-4449-b262-eaf62beb7c25_312x162.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>But it will need a prompt. So it might be prompted by scripted &#8220;<a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/order-out-of-chaos">Order Out of Chaos</a>&#8221; geopolitics; war is expensive, and war in Europe is already a reality.  It might be another faked pandemic, perhaps, which is expensive, or it might be the result of new economic forces related to AI rollout, resulting in mass unemployment or widespread social unrest, which is driven by some or all of the above.</p><p>We don&#8217;t really know what the trigger will be, but it&#8217;s clear that there will be a &#8220;crisis.&#8221; Perhaps the year of the &#8220;polycrises,&#8221; as <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTiU1wnFE4E">psycho-Schwab predicted</a>. And here&#8217;s the risky part for us all. Control the money, and you control the people. It&#8217;s a complicated issue. The justification for a reset will be economic, but underneath all that, it is really about control of the masses by the &#8220;elite.&#8221; And that, of course, should be of grave concern to everybody.</p><p>Perhaps we are seeing phase one of this already via the rolling out of digital IDs in the UK and elsewhere. The UK does appear very susceptible to economic reset. It has high debt, an aging population, an expensive state, weak productivity, and inflation that refuses to go back into its box without causing serious political pain. Austerity at scale is politically impossible, and outright default is politically unthinkable.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png" width="631" height="276" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:276,&quot;width&quot;:631,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:379088,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/184919805?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TIU4!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff363e435-527e-4c59-86ca-92f99dbf0978_631x276.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Inflation alone is too slow and too chaotic to do all the work. So perhaps some of the signs are already in plain sight. Governments are wildly over-borrowed, commodities like gold and silver are spiking, and there is a stock market asset bubble. The financial system looks extremely precarious. So, when the numbers stop working, governments don&#8217;t announce resets; they look for excuses, and this is where an external authority becomes useful. </p><p>Historically, this is the role played by the International Monetary Fund. The IMF, of course, doesn&#8217;t cause these crises, but it provides something invaluable to a cornered government. Cover. It allows politicians and ministers to say, &#8220;We had no choice.&#8221; It reframes domestic failure as international necessity, and it legitimizes emergency measures that would otherwise be politically impossible. And once you&#8217;re in that world, the conversation changes very quickly. </p><p>The priority becomes stabilization, keeping payments working, keeping wages paid, and keeping food moving through supermarkets. And this is where money has the opportunity to change its character. Perhaps it won&#8217;t be overnight confiscation or empty bank accounts, but tiering. You end up with old money and new CBDC money running alongside each other. Legacy money, existing bank deposits, guilds, pensions, and long-dated promises still exist legally and numerically, but their mobility is restricted, their convertibility is rationed, and their usefulness quietly and quickly degrades. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

protecting households and maintaining order. This is how a CBDC would become operational. Old money balances are capped, conversion is staged, access is prioritized for wages, benefits, and essentials, and large balances are told to wait. And this is the key point that gets missed. Restricted convertibility is, in reality, good old-fashioned capital control. At that point, the reset will already have happened. Not because the old money disappeared, but because its freedom of movement did.

glorifying) the dark topics I write about. Admittedly, I only read a few sentences of it and moved on. The fact is, I have explained several times in the comments sections of my pieces the motivations behind my writing. With more content coming, I felt inclined to formally declare why and what I Stack, just in case it matters to anyone. </p><p>My initial &#8220;awaken from the matrix&#8221; moment back in 2020 was quite abrupt, scary, and painful. Let&#8217;s just say that a veil lifted and I came face-to-face with evil. It was like getting kicked in the chest&#8212;I literally sat up out of bed, almost unable to breathe. I suddenly saw the world we <em>actually</em> live in more clearly. Months later, I had a deep <em>spiritual</em> awakening&#8212;in a flash, I was given an &#8220;account&#8221; of my life, and for weeks afterwards, I was filled with a profound sense of &#8220;knowing,&#8221; indescribable love, and spiritual bliss. </p><p>My spirit and life literally changed overnight&#8212;my motivations and appetite for things, my tolerance for what I could feed my mind and spirit, and what I spent my time on. The veil further lifted, and I saw things even more clearly. A newfound sense of motivation and purpose was revealed. I didn&#8217;t ask for it; it just happened. Ever since then, I&#8217;ve been unplugged from pretty much all of my former distractions&#8212;completely immersed in study attempting to better understand the hidden truths of our world. No more social media, no more TV, and far fewer destructive habits. The journey to find those deeper truths led me into many dark topics&#8212;topics that were the catalyst for my spiritual awakening. </p><p>Before I go any further, and for the record, it seems that lots of people have had a similar &#8220;awakening.&#8221; I do not think that I am &#8220;special&#8221; nor that I have &#8220;arrived&#8221; in any way intellectually or spiritually. I do not think that I &#8220;figured it all out.&#8221; In fact, I often feel further away from that than I did when I was completely asleep. I simply know a lot more today, and deeply recognize how elusive even blatant truth can be&#8212;especially when you start to think you&#8217;ve got it all figured out. I admit that I still have a <em>lot</em> to learn, and I may in fact be wrong about some big things. I strive to remain open to being wrong and finding deeper truth every single day.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png" width="633" height="241.49132947976878" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:198,&quot;width&quot;:519,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:633,&quot;bytes&quot;:96345,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/183182546?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!egNH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0eb8ab3f-cffc-4eae-a984-0d17f61f1e2e_519x198.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>With that said, yes, I carry a strong conviction that I am largely over the target with what I write about. I will stand firm in that until proven wrong&#8212;and then I will simply adjust without guilt or shame. I can admit when I&#8217;m wrong these days, and trust me, I really do wish I were wrong about most of what I write about. </p><p>My journey has been filled with many odd (or dare I say &#8220;divine&#8221;) signs and twists. In fact, I feel as if I&#8217;ve largely been &#8220;shown&#8221; or led to deeper understanding <em>because </em>of the spirit and motivations I&#8217;ve carried into my studies. I humble myself and pray for guidance regularly&#8212;I pray that I remain pure in my intention, able to evade deception, and be granted deeper understanding. </p><p>Looking back, it&#8217;s almost as if there was a &#8220;plan&#8221; behind what, when, and where things have been revealed. I saw repeating signs and symbols when needed to focus my attention and keep me on track. I had many pivotal moments and epiphanies. Topics were woven together in an uncanny fashion, seemingly as I became more open and ready for them. Deeper, nuanced truth emerged step by step&#8212;often feeling like a personalized lesson plan. A fuller picture stitched together in a way that, when looking back, has felt <em>guided</em>. It seems that many across the world have had similar experiences.</p><p>During this 9-month Stack journey, admittedly, I haven&#8217;t devoted equal coverage to what some profess to be more important spiritual topics and <em>solutions</em>. If that bothers you, my apologies. The truth is, I have largely been unworthy of or unable to do so. Are my stacks deep and heavy? Yep. I am where I am&#8212;my journey (dare I say &#8220;calling&#8221;?) is what it is. If someone thinks what I write about is hogwash or that I&#8217;m taking the wrong approach, I can accept that. Acceptance isn&#8217;t agreement.</p><p>Anyhow, I am seemingly close to having covered most everything I believe one needs to better understand the history of the bloodlines, &#8220;religion,&#8221; agendas, goals, narratives, structures, tools, and tactics behind what &#8220;they&#8221; now call the NWO plan. Naturally, the question of &#8220;Well, what the heck are you going to do about it?&#8221; eventually comes. At some point, we must focus more on solutions. Well, when I figure it all out, rest assured, I&#8217;ll let you know!  ;)  </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg" width="621" height="207.53213367609254" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:130,&quot;width&quot;:389,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:621,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G43p!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6d065247-3395-4423-962c-a7e6c6ed1d37_389x130.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>So it&#8217;s clear, yes, I <em>do</em> want to reach people, but I don&#8217;t write for clicks, subs, income, attention, or ego. Instead, the research and writing have largely been a journey of self-discovery and an outlet. If my stacks end up helping someone else&#8212;<em>awesome</em>. Almost no one in my immediate circle is very awake nor wants to discuss the topics I write about. Most still believe in the false paradigms and beliefs that many of us here have worked hard for years to release. Most people around me still spend countless hours on social media and TV, socially programmed into focusing on the things that keep us distracted, deceived, and divided. It&#8217;s painful to watch. In the more extreme cases, it is extremely annoying. The chasm with many grows larger by the day&#8212;and I often feel like I&#8217;m drifting out to sea on a separated ice shelf. My attempts at trying to reach people took a big toll on some key relationships&#8212;eventually I had to let go. Instead, I started writing as an outlet and in the hope that <em>someone</em> would hear.</p><p>I&#8217;m not writing out of fear, nor am I attempting to sell fear or despair. I&#8217;m not trying to glorify evil, nor help refill the loosh or negative energy slop trough the parasitic class feeds out of. I&#8217;m simply telling the truth as best as I know it&#8212;and most of the hidden truths being uncovered about our world are ugly. The fear part is optional, of course, and that is an individual choice. In my experience, the more you know, the less you actually fear&#8212;as there are deep spiritual realizations contained within&#8212;and there you can find peace. That part is a very personal journey and choice, however, and I leave that up to each individual.</p><p>I believe that if you <em>truly decide </em>that you want the truth about our world and deeply investigate the topics I write about, like me, you will largely find that they are true. The implications redefine the understanding of who and what we ultimately are and the world we live in. Eventually, we become presented with choices around how and why we are living our lives. </p><p>Have I been fearful at times? Yes, but I do not choose fear. I do, however, carry very deep concerns. I&#8217;ve learned to recognize the fine line between deep concern and fear. Fear, anger, and despair paralyze. Educated and spiritually empowered concern mobilizes. Check in and course correct regularly. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png" width="637" height="297.0654028436019" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:492,&quot;width&quot;:1055,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:637,&quot;bytes&quot;:499490,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/183182546?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!QcBS!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe8fb22cf-f3ae-46d3-a4f7-2ab22a3f9286_1055x492.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Ultimately, what I write about flows from a place filled with care and concern for others.

billionaire tech titans in Jensen Huang, Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and others are being celebrated as visionaries that are transforming our world. But what are the higher-level architects really building while the masses are distracted by AI chatbots and image generators? Let&#8217;s take a closer look&#8230;</p><p>Personally, I am already sick of the AI crap that is taking over all social media and streaming sites. It doesn&#8217;t matter if you&#8217;re scrolling through shorts or watching just about any video &#8212; AI is ruining every site and steadily ruining the internet. As you&#8217;ve probably noticed, the AI videos are getting more and more realistic. We&#8217;ve all been there &#8212; watching what looks like some sort of a tutorial but you notice something is off about it. Oh, that&#8217;s because it&#8217;s AI. If you&#8217;re like me, you don&#8217;t want to watch AI videos, so you click off and then try something else. Low and behold, another AI video. It doesn&#8217;t matter what content it is these days &#8212; AI is suddenly everywhere. Have <em>you</em> started noticing the increasing flood of AI content? </p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Please consider becoming a subscriber.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p>Ok, yeah, it&#8217;s no secret that we have a problem with AI on all social media sites now. Before we know it, AI generated dead-looking eyes will be staring at us from behind most clicks. Robotic voices will be reading supposed human scripts that no human actually wrote. We&#8217;re being bombarded with content that nobody asked for but it keeps on coming. Why? </p><p>Well, it&#8217;s a lot deeper and darker than the annoying yet seemingly benign AI content currently being rammed down our throats. If you&#8217;re paying attention to what is really going on &#8212; you should be furious about it. Perhaps you are participating in the comment sections exploding with anger about all the crap AI stuff being thrown at us. Well, we can complain online until we&#8217;re blue in the face &#8212; it doesn&#8217;t matter because what we want is irrelevant to them. They will keep forcing it on us anyway. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg" width="600" height="818.0265654648956" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/a4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1437,&quot;width&quot;:1054,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:600,&quot;bytes&quot;:188946,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/181925141?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ipkr!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa4f48b4f-be24-4e00-a6cf-6187441ba068_1054x1437.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Back to what Time Magazine just did &#8212; they  crowned the person of the year for 2025. And who was that again? The key architects of AI, that <em>none</em> of us asked for. Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA. Sam Altman, CEO of Open AI. Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk. All CEOs of AI-driven companies.</p><p>So, the coveted &#8220;person of the year&#8221; is some billionaire that is building AI systems that will be used to control us. Gotcha. Kind of DEMONstrates what we&#8217;re dealing with. Apparently 2025 is the year where they declared to the masses that there will be no turning back &#8212; no opting out from their unfolding AI control grid. Do you comprehend what was just said? </p><div><hr></div><p><strong>THERE ARE TELLING YOU THERE IS NO TURNING BACK. NO OPTING OUT.</strong> </p><div><hr></div><p>According to them, you don&#8217;t get a choice at this point, folks. We are being told that the world we once knew and perhaps loved, is gone forever. And no, that is not just being dramatic. I sure wish it were just drama but it appears there is no going back to the pre-AI world. There is no going back to the more-pure times when people weren&#8217;t being hyper manipulated by algorithms. In fact, it&#8217;s going to get far worse when their artificial &#8220;Skynet&#8221; really starts enforcing what we&#8217;re supposed to think and believe &#8212; when they are tracking our every move and thought.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg" width="600" height="600" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:740,&quot;width&quot;:740,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:600,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!7OND!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81e3bed4-5712-4ca7-b4cf-fa74d222acd9_740x740.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>We are being told that we&#8217;ve entered a world where AI has officially taken over. We are still in the beginning phases of it all but rest assured, what it will turn into will be an absolutely dystopian nightmare for everyone. They are telling us that we just need to accept it. They want you to believe that this is some sort of a natural technological evolution, when in fact, it&#8217;s not. It&#8217;s a control grid that they have been dreaming of, architecting and building for many, many decades. While we&#8217;ve been slumbering, they have been working to deploy these systems in such a way where there was little concern or backlash. By the time we figured out where it was all going, it was too late. The systems are already largely deployed and there would be no turning back. Mission accomplished, it appears. </p><div><hr></div><p><strong>WE SHOULD ALL ASK OURSELVES, HOW THE HECK DID WE GET HERE?</strong></p><div><hr></div><p>Once again, they baited a slumbering, distracted and ignorant populace by selling AI as some largely fun and disruptively helpful new tool for your life. They gave us fun AI tools, chatbots, AI image generators, funny AI videos, etc. They encouraged us to play with the technology and get used to it. People it seems, have largely accepted it. </p><p>The truth is, humanity is seemingly CHOOSING once again to accept the next slavery construct that our parasitic overlords are offering &#8212; and just like in times past, we appear to be mostly consenting out of ignorance. Just like before, the truth has been readily available to us. They have been telling us for years now what they&#8217;re going to do to us &#8212; right out in the open on the world&#8217;s stage, in their articles, in their lectures, in their interviews and in their books. They&#8217;ve been telling us exactly what they are planning. People haven&#8217;t been paying attention. People haven&#8217;t listened. People haven&#8217;t believed.

they were being offered, in exchange for what is now being taken from all of us. Now there is no turning back. While most will say that what they participated in was mostly benign &#8212; know that in essence, we literally traded chatbot conversations and AI-generated cat videos for our freedom. In general, people simply continue to be too distracted and apathetic to care. While the masses were playing with AI or just distracted, something else was happening behind the scenes. They were building something much darker.</p><p>That &#8220;thing&#8221; is in the process of stealing your freedoms and futures right now. And the best part? Pretty much everyone reading this is literally paying for it &#8212; yes, with your own actual money. Have you noticed your electric bills going up? I&#8217;m sure you have. Guess who&#8217;s responsible? I&#8217;m sure you guessed it. Yes, it&#8217;s the AI companies. It&#8217;s all of the AI data centers going up across the globe.</p><p>In the areas where these AI data centers are being brought online, electricity costs have gone up considerably and continue to go up. These AI data centers that are running massive server and GPU farms are sucking electricity from the grid like the virtual vampires that they are. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg" width="605" height="340.48837209302326" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:484,&quot;width&quot;:860,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:605,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xsgx!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3d2c9762-5bf9-4723-bb8d-9c676c2aa20f_860x484.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>So, Time Magazine says that these tech billionaires are delivering the age of thinking machines &#8212; that they are transforming our lives for the better and helping humanity transcend to new heights of what&#8217;s possible.

What happens in the future, when the laws change? What happens when they unleash the next &#8220;Plandemic&#8221; or whatever global health event they fabricate, coupled with dystopian measures they attempt to force on us? What happens when the laws change to more broadly cover what you&#8217;re doing, how you think and how you live? Folks, THAT is what is coming. They talked about this extensively on the world&#8217;s stage at the World Economic Forums. They talked about this openly in their interviews, lectures, books, etc. Note however, that I haven&#8217;t even mentioned the equally dystopian Digital ID, CBDC, Social Credit or Carbon Tracking portions of what&#8217;s planned. </p><p>What happens when the day comes when part of who you are or how you think as a person becomes illegal? Well, they can already track you down using the data you&#8217;ve freely offered them over the last 10 years &#8212; quite easily now with Flock, Palantir, and all the algorithms you interact with on a daily basis.</p><div><hr></div><p><strong>THE DATA STORED ABOUT YOU WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU </strong></p><div><hr></div><p>Police departments from across the country are now using Flock to view your license plate number, your location, your direction of travel, the time/date, who you were with, what you were doing, etc. The best part? They don&#8217;t need a warrant. They don&#8217;t need probable cause. They don&#8217;t need court orders. They can just do it whenever they want. Furthermore, their algorithm scans your movements and patterns and compares it to their baseline data, and will try to determine if anything you do looks suspicious. They will be using immensely powerful AI, fed by ALL of your data, looking for suspicious patterns.</p><p>What do you suppose will happen when the algorithm finds something suspicious? Enter law enforcement. So, the AI system will decide whether you&#8217;re suspicious or not, based upon it&#8217;s programming and modeling. No human intervention or oversight in this part. No human investigation. No probable cause, just an algorithm making judgments about you, based upon the parameters it was programmed to search against.</p><p>THIS is the invisible cage that&#8217;s being built around YOU right now. They&#8217;re essentially building a technocratic prison cell for everybody, RIGHT NOW. You can&#8217;t see the bars. You can&#8217;t see the walls. You can&#8217;t see the guards. You&#8217;ll just have cameras, databases, AI and algorithms, tracking you and making determinations about everything you do and everyone you&#8217;re with. Let&#8217;s be clear however, this is not even the worst part. This is just one part of a larger technocratic infrastructure. Flock safety may be watching how and where you drive but what&#8217;s next? Well, have you heard of Palantir?</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg" width="628" height="314.38060606060606" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:413,&quot;width&quot;:825,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:628,&quot;bytes&quot;:63460,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V6WH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fead5b6db-5970-4b24-be22-2e6fc698f1ce_825x413.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a><figcaption class="image-caption">A palant&#237;r is <strong>a magical, indestructible crystal ball</strong> from <em>The Lord of the Rings</em>, used for long-distance communication and scrying, allowing its user to see events across vast distances or even in the past.

Another prophetic Hollyweird movie, trying to tell us something perhaps? Well if you recall, that evil eye in the Lord of the Rings was able to see everything, everywhere and at all times.

Once again, in seemingly prophetic Hollywood movie style, they were able to use psychics to pull information from another realm to identify and alert police about who was going to commit a crime and when. Pre-crime policing. Well, enter the realm of AI and they&#8217;re basically attempting to do the very same thing with Palantir. The algorithm is going to decide who is likely to commit a crime. Not based upon actual crimes committed, mind you, but rather it&#8217;ll be based upon your patterns, locations, demographics, associations and all of the things in your file that they deem relevant. These agencies will harvest all of that data and act upon it, based upon the predictions that their AI algorithm makes about you. Palantir&#8217;s Gotham software is already being used by police departments for &#8220;predictive policing&#8221;.  Deny it all they will &#8212; the discerning mind knows we&#8217;re just being fed more lies.</p><p><strong>Now, let&#8217;s connect and summarize those pieces.</strong> </p><p>The Flat cameras will track your movements nationwide. All that data will feed into Palantir systems. Palantir AI will take that data and analyze it. They&#8217;ll take all of your data and patterns and generate something akin to a &#8220;risk score&#8221; on you. Based upon the score, they&#8217;ll identify you as a target. At first, someone will likely review and approve any actions. Later however, the AI system will make it&#8217;s own decisions about actions to be taken against you in a fraction of a second, without any human oversight or intervention. It comes in steps and phases folks. </p><p>As a friendly reminder, it is you and I that are paying for this whole thing through our electricity bills, through our Government&#8217;s fiscal policies and through our tax dollars that are funding these terrible government contracts. All of this crap are things that I&#8217;m pretty certain NO American ever wanted in the first place. <a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-new-world-order-agenda">Who the hell signed us up for all this and where does it all lead?</a> Only time will tell but it&#8217;s clear where they ultimately <em>want</em> to take it, when you decode and study their agendas, projects, programs and words. </p><p>They want us to believe that this forced adoption of AI is a good thing. That it&#8217;s only surveillance and tracking of the bad guys. They want you to believe that if they targeted someone, that it really must have been a bad guy, right?

They want you to believe that they are looking out for us and ultimately just trying to make the world a better place. Are we sure about that? A better place for <em>them</em> perhaps but for the rest of us, what are they actually delivering? </p><p>They are delivering a nationwide surveillance network that tracks everywhere you go, everything you do, everything you say, buy, etc. Every ad and video that you click on. Every comment you make online.

Do you think that notion is far fetched? Check out the very public videos, from the architects of the Great Reset talking about how they&#8217;ll be able to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAC_Heb4IFo">know and control your thoughts by 2030</a>. What is their ultimate goal? Being able to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NV0CtZga7qM">control your free will</a>. As we become fully hackable and manipulated &#8212; they achieve ultimate control. </p><p>And for those of us that DO NOT COMPLY? Well, these targeting platforms are advanced military technology being deployed for domestic population monitoring and control. It&#8217;s that simple. While most Americans gorge on the next depraved Netflix series or mass-marketed sports game, your own Government is rolling out AI-powered military systems that will make decisions for your life, using the very data that you continue to freely provide. There will be predictive algorithms that decide whether you&#8217;re suspicious and should be dealt with, even before you&#8217;ve done anything wrong. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg" width="658" height="243.1346153846154" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:538,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:658,&quot;bytes&quot;:309655,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/i/181925141?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j8au!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F06aab73e-cdb5-43e0-82dc-998977981dee_2560x946.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>If all of this sounds crazy, it is.

We can get out of the big cities and build community. We can get back to a more self-sufficient lifestyle, connected with nature. We can put down the devices and technology more often &#8212; learn how to leverage the technology tools we must &#8212; but recognize that we must prevent ourselves from becoming deeper slaves to them. We can say NO. We can fight at the local level, and demand that they STOP rolling out this dystopian technology in our communities. We can stand up and say that we DO NOT COMPLY. If enough of us cared and stood up, it would all come to a screeching halt. </p><p>I don&#8217;t know about you but &#8220;I&#8217;d rather die free, than live as a slave&#8221;. </p><p>What say you?</p><p><strong>DO NOT COMPLY.</strong></p><p><strong>God Bless you.</strong></p><p></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>DON&#8217;T MISS MY FREE ARCHIVE <a

This model describes a process involving three stages: Thesis (an initial idea or state), Antithesis (a reaction or opposition to the thesis), and Synthesis (a resolution that reconciles the two, forming a higher-level understanding or new state). This process is also commonly described as &#8220;Problem &#8212; Reaction &#8212; Solution,&#8221; where a problem is created or exploited to provoke a reaction, leading to a pre-planned solution that serves the interests of those who orchestrated the initial chaos.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption"></p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p>The purpose of this piece is to do my best at detailing historical examples of how this tactic has been used &#8212; which will hopefully open more people&#8217;s eyes to how the NWO agenda will continue to unfold in the coming days, months and years ahead. </p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>ORDER OUT OF CHAOS</strong></h2><p>Our parasitic overlords are masters of illusion. They speak out of both sides of their mouths to present two or more views or situations side by side that are equally bad or downright wrong, for the purpose of causing the na&#239;ve to believe one of the two, or even a third presentation to be the correct choice. </p><p><em><strong>But all the while, each option is aimed at creating division and chaos. Sound familiar?</strong></em></p><p>The &#8220;globalist&#8221; NWO cabal will assert through unending propaganda that the only way to restore &#8220;peace and safety&#8221; as well as the carrying capacity of the earth (with their BS &#8220;sustainable goals&#8221; slavery framework) is by eliminating anything (and anyone) that will not comply with Agenda 2030 (their NWO). </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png" width="1456" height="822" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:822,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!za_8!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F93ef0b0a-09a9-4269-b2df-cbb72cbb69d7_2548x1438.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>As we carry on, try to relate all of this to your observation of your own country, and the Western (formerly Christian) allies.

Other very important stacks to read but let&#8217;s move on with this one&#8230;</p><p>There is a relationship between Finance, Centralization, and World Hegemony. Until the outbreak of the First World War, money appeared to be a mere mechanism. But the arrangements made to finance the war reveal that the money system was in fact the vehicle of a <em>policy</em> and that policy was the <em>centralization</em> of power leading progressively to World Government. Before the outbreak of war, Great Britain was the <em>center</em> (but not <em><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-black-nobility-part-1?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2">the being</a></em>) of world financial control. With the war, financial control was <a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-federal-reserve-is-neither-federal">transferred to New York</a> and from there used to dismantle the British Empire which, by reason of British traditions and the Anglo-Saxon character, had been the great barrier to World Dominion by those operating through <a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/who-pulls-the-strings-a-full-breakdown?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2">the world financial system</a>. The fall of the British Empire was a <em>financial</em> accomplishment, not a military one. But the terms of &#8216;peace&#8217; imposed on &#8216;victorious&#8217; Britain are those which might have been expected following military <em>defeat</em>.</p><p>But the power which emerged into the open in the last century had its birth long before that. It seems to have been incubated (but not conceived) in The Secret Societies of Europe, appeared briefly in the French Revolution, and spread to Britain in the form of Fabianism, and to America in the form of various Socialist societies. Following the first phase of the war, it openly took over Russia and visibly spread as International Communism taking over big parts of the globe.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg" width="587" height="389.03812316715545" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:226,&quot;width&quot;:341,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:587,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!aqPi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F91f8e9cb-d6a3-47ae-9cf7-51f01001f828_341x226.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><div><hr></div><p><strong>Current history, which looks episodic, is in fact the culminating stages of a very long-term global agenda, but visible only in the long perspective of time.</strong></p><div><hr></div><p>What we think we see is often an illusion intentionally presented &#8212; like the conjuror who tricks you into believing he&#8217;s offering freedom with one hand, while he&#8217;s in fact using distraction and trickery to slip slavery into your pocket using the other. Citizens of the world, whether their sympathies are left-wing or right-wing, have been used as pawns in this very game of Hegelian psychology by the hidden hand that rules.</p><div><hr></div><p><strong>The Hegelian Dialectic process is the notion that conflict creates history.</strong> </p><div><hr></div><p>From this axiom, it follows that controlled conflict can create a predetermined outcome or history. For example, when <a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/the-round-table?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;showWelcomeOnShare=false">the Trilateral Commission</a> discusses &#8216;managed conflict&#8217;, as it does extensively in its literature, it implies the use of managed conflict for long-game predetermined ends &#8212; not simply for the seemingly random exercise of manipulative control to solve a current problem.</p><p><strong>The dialectic takes this Trilateral &#8216;managed conflict&#8217; process one step further. Once again, in Hegelian terms:</strong></p><ol><li><p>An existing force (the thesis) </p></li><li><p>Generates a counter-force (the antithesis). </p></li><li><p>Conflict between the two forces results in the formation of a synthesis. </p></li></ol><p>Then the process starts all over again: Thesis vs. antithesis results in synthesis.</p><p>It&#8217;s kind of like two companies with undisclosed common stock-holding, submitting competitive tenders for a project on a site for which their stockholder has different plans altogether. Whatever the outcome, the stockholder is in beneficial control.</p><p>While the dialectic is presented as a method for understanding the development of historical agendas, we must understand how it is a very important and refined tool of the &#8220;elites&#8221;. They use it for constructing narratives and its application is ideologically driven, aiming to replace an established order with a new paradigm/order by directing conflict and manufacturing synthesis.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

capitalism as the thesis and communism as the antithesis. What has been generally ignored by historians, including Marxists, is that any clash between these forces cannot lead to a society that is either capitalist or communist, but must lead to a society characterized by a <em>synthesis</em> of the two conflicting forces. <strong>The clash of opposites in the Hegelian system, must bring about a society neither capitalist nor communist.</strong> Moreover, in the Hegelian scheme of events, <strong>this new synthesis will reflect the concept of the state as God, and the individual as totally subordinate to an all-powerful state.</strong> </p><div><hr></div><p><strong>It&#8217;s LONG past time that we realize the function of a Congress or Parliament is, for Hegelians &#8212; </strong><em><strong>psychology</strong></em><strong>.</strong> </p><p><strong>These constructs merely allow individuals to feel that their opinions have some value, and allows a government to take advantage of whatever wisdom the feeble minded peasant&#8217; may accidentally demonstrate. This has become increasingly obvious in global politics today, for those that are paying attention.</strong> </p><div><hr></div><p><strong>As Hegel puts it:</strong></p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;By virtue of this participation, subjective liberty and conceit, with their general opinion, (individuals) can show themselves palpably efficacious and enjoy the satisfaction of feeling themselves to count for something.&#8221; </em></p></blockquote><p>War, the organized conflict of nations for Hegelians, is only the visible outcome of the clash between ideas. Following the outbreak of war in 1939, Social Creditor C.H. Douglas said, <em>&#8220;The international money marketers care no more for the immolation of the peoples of a continent than for the death of a sparrow&#8221;</em>; and <em>&#8220;unfortunately the world is in the grasp of theorists to whom misery and death of millions is a grain of sand beside the working out of their designs&#8221;</em>. </p><p><strong>John Dewey, the Hegelian darling of the modern educational system, says:</strong></p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;War is the most effective preacher of the vanity of all merely finite interests, it puts an end to that selfish egotism of the individual by which he would claim his life and his property as his own or as his family&#8217;s.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>Above all, the Hegelian doctrine is the divine right of States rather than the divine right of kings. </p><p><strong>The State for Hegel and Hegelians is God on earth:</strong></p><blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The march of God in history is the cause of the existence of states, their foundation is the power of Reason realizing itself as will. Every state, whatever it be, participates in the Divine essence. The State is not the work of human art, only Reason could produce it.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote><p>For Hegel, the individual is nothing; the individual has no rights, and morality consists solely in following a leader. Absolute insanity!</p><p><strong>Compare this to the spirit of The U.S. Constitution that emphasizes the protection of individual rights against the power of the state</strong>: </p><blockquote><p>Several quotes highlight this principle.

Governance</strong></em></figcaption></figure></div><p>Western Christian civilization, whose domain was very nearly the world, had expanded without a notable recession until seemingly around 1914. In 1917, it began a retreat that has since been uninterrupted and is now accelerating. Such losses are of lasting and fundamental importance, but of course, it is not &#8220;politically correct&#8221; to criticize such things today. It has been architected to be interpreted by the ignorant masses as &#8220;racist&#8221;, &#8220;Islamophobic&#8221; and &#8220;antisemitic&#8221;. Pay no attention to the double standards, of course.</p><div><hr></div><h2>Further Historical Hegelian Examination:</h2><p>World history since 1917 reflects an application of Hegelian dialectics. Russia was taken over by mainly <a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/are-all-wars-bankers-wars?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2">Ashkenazi Jews</a> from the East End of New York, who established Socialism, later called Communism. This Revolution was planned by international financiers and financed by Wall Street.</p><p>Thus, we see governments need censorship to classify certain files for thirty or fifty years after events, to protect the living from charges of treason, and to conceal the past intrigues and long-term goals of the hidden elite who call the shots.</p><p>Soviet Russia&#8217;s first Five-Year Plan was largely devised by Detroit-based Albert Kahn, Inc., and Russia&#8217;s industry-financed by Wall Street. Thus was the thesis: Communism, established.</p><p>But the Marxist version of the Hegelian dialectic poses financial Capitalism as thesis, and Marxist revolution as the antithesis. An obvious puzzle in this Marxian statement is the nature of the Synthesis presumed to evolve out of the clash of these opposites. As we covered previously, it could not be Communism.</p><p>Lenin&#8217;s <a href="https://search.brave.com/search?q=Lenin%E2%80%99s+statement+that+the+state+will+wither+away&amp;summary=1&amp;conversation=336b552b4973f4cb13a12e">statement</a> that the state will wither away at the synthesis stage was nonsensical. In fact, as all contemporary Marxist states testify, in practice, the state becomes all-powerful. The immediate task of &#8220;the revolution&#8221; is to convey all power to the state, and modern Marxist states operate under a constant paranoia that power may indeed pass away from the hands of the state into the hands of the people.</p><p>If Marxism is posed as the Thesis and National Socialism as the Antithesis, then the most likely Synthesis becomes a Hegelian <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-new-world-order-agenda?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;triedRedirect=true">NEW WORLD ORDER</a></strong> &#8212; a synthesis evolving out of the clash of Marxism and National Socialism. Moreover, in this  statement, those who <em>finance and manage</em> the clash of opposites can remain in control of and shape the synthesis. Is this making sense to my fellow reader??</p><p>The elite artificially encouraged and developed BOTH revolutionary Marxism and National Socialism while retaining some control over the nature and degree of the conflict; therefore, it is able to determine the evolution and nature of the New World Order. <strong>THIS is how it works.</strong></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Out of war and revolution come opportunities for profit by corporations under the control and influence of these elites. In the two World Wars, the Korean and Vietnamese Wars, there are numerous examples of American banks and corporations trading with the enemy. Of course, this largely gets omitted from our history (indoctrination) courses.</strong></p><div><hr></div><p>Now the antithesis of National Socialism, is no more. The Cold War is over, so we&#8217;re taught that the thesis of Russian Communism is also dead. This leaves the once Christian, now Capitalist West. The US and Russia are now seen are &#8216;friends&#8217; &#8212; with the West financing Russia at the government level, increasing profits and reducing risks for the international bankers. </p><p>To prevent history coming to its end (that was tongue in cheek) &#8212; the elite had to introduce a new dialectic process. World War II was the culmination of the dialectic process created in the 1920s and 1930s. The clash between &#8216;left&#8217; and &#8216;right&#8217;, the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany, led to the creation of synthesis &#8212; the UN, and a start towards regional groupings in NATO, the Common Market, UNESCO, Warsaw Pact, SEATO, CIS, then the Trilateral Commission. <strong>A big push towards the New World Order.</strong></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>World War II left the &#8220;elite&#8221; with the necessity to create a new dialectical situation to promote MORE conflict so they could achieve an even higher-level synthesis.</strong></p><div><hr></div><p>The source of this process may be found in US National Security Memorandum No. 68 of 1950, which opened up the road for Western technology to build a more advanced Soviet Union, which it did in the 1960s and 1970s with computerized space-age technology. <strong>In true Hegelian tradition, it simultaneously argued for a massive expansion of US defenses on the grounds of a future Soviet threat.</strong> (Which would not have been possible without the transfer of Western technology). Thus, the internationalists profited from Soviet and US purchases. </p><p><strong>Interesting how all that works, huh??</strong></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg" width="555" height="310" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:310,&quot;width&quot;:555,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" title="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!OCEb!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb40ddfde-f920-45b9-8b97-9d6f8207d62b_555x310.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><div><hr></div><p><strong>By and large, control of this knowledge has been successful because the intellectual world is still locked into a phony battle between &#8216;left&#8217;

Of course, this growing problem now needs a &#8220;solution&#8221;.</strong></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg" width="727" height="424.4335260115607" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:303,&quot;width&quot;:519,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:727,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rXnh!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff1e3992d-a128-42a0-842b-e4b88a188379_519x303.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><div><hr></div><h2>In Closing:</h2><p>The increasing militarization fueled by the supposed push towards a more multipolar world with Russia, China, The US, Iran, etc., &#8212; has all countries increasingly involved in conflicts through military, political and financial means. </p><p>The current conflicts driving the Hegelian shift towards a new world order include the war in Ukraine, which has now been ongoing since February 2022. This conflict has intensified the rivalry between the United States and China, with Russia receiving military and economic support from allies such as Iran, North Korea, and China, forming a network of cooperation among <a href="https://search.brave.com/search?q=autocratic+revisionist+states&amp;summary=1&amp;conversation=824dd0c85ae5f9bdcc2e98">autocratic revisionist states</a>. </p><p>The ongoing war (genocide) in Gaza, has further destabilized the Middle East, with Israel&#8217;s military campaign pushing the world to <a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/are-all-wars-bankers-wars">the brink of war</a>. </p><p>Tensions in Asia are also central, particularly around Taiwan, where China&#8217;s increasing military pressure and the retention of an independent government in Taiwan have raised the risk of a Chinese invasion and conflict with the United States.  </p><p>The Korean Peninsula presents a significant risk due to North Korea&#8217;s advanced nuclear capabilities and intensified missile testing, which heightens the potential for conflict with South Korea and the United States.</p><p>Additional conflicts are materializing on the world&#8217;s stage with most people largely unaware that they fit into a plot.  </p><div><hr></div><p><strong>These conflicts are not isolated but are interconnected.</strong> </p><div><hr></div><p>We are being served up what looks like competition between liberal democracies and autocracies, with the United States and its allies forming a so-called &#8220;Global West&#8221; while China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea are seen as part of a &#8220;Global East&#8221; &#8212;deepening the divide in global governance and security.

Nations. After the U.S. had rejected the first attempt to create such an institution in the League of Nations, the Illuminati decided to create an arm of the Rothschild funded Round Table groups which could help influence western society towards the embracement of globalism.</em></p><p><strong>-Fritz Springmeier, Bloodlines of the Illuminati</strong></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>Introduction</strong></h2><p>This is very important information to understand. </p><p>If you&#8217;ve come along for the ride on <strong><a href="https://substack.com/@thedonotcomplyguy/posts">these previous stacks</a></strong> and have done some honest research yourself &#8212; then you&#8217;re way past being derailed with the whole &#8220;conspiracy theory&#8221; tactic. That is, you now know more of what is closer to reality and that this  tactic is just psychological mind-f&#8217;ery intended to derail your truth train. Sadly, far too many people follow the herd and can&#8217;t think for themselves &#8212; they care far too much about what other people think of them.  </p><p>Anyhow, you also have a solid grasp of why a group of psychotic miscreants would be motivated to control the planet. You have a basic knowledge of how they control populations and are aware of the methods they use to implement their encroaching, repressive measures. You understand many of the structures, narratives, tactics and agenda&#8217;s that have been used against us to great effect for many generations. </p><p>Therefore, it will be easier to explain that a handful of key front groups have been (secretly, right out in the open our entire lives) functioning in unison to push an agenda of global consolidation, or the <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-new-world-order-agenda?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2">New World Order</a></strong>. </p><p>While most of us have likely heard of many of these groups &#8212; understanding them and how they fit together is a bit of a challenge. The parasitic class loves to make things as obscure, complex and benign sounding as possible, in order to throw us off of their putrid scent. I had a hard time finding good material covering or summarizing these groups. Therefore, this stack is intended to help all of us gain a better handle on the history, purpose and function of these groups. </p><p>Over the years, these different front groups (largely comprised of secret societies members) have emerged to carry out specific NWO tasks. To the surface level normie, these groups appear as separate, benign initiatives with little political influence &#8212; groups that are respectfully devoted to the betterment of humanity. Ok, sure. Uh huh.</p><p><strong>The key round table group structure is as follows: </strong></p><ul><li><p>The Round Table (1891)</p><ul><li><p>Royal Institute for International Affairs (1920)</p></li><li><p>Council on Foreign Relations (1921)</p></li><li><p>United Nations (1945)</p></li><li><p>Bilderberg Group (1954)</p></li><li><p>Club of Rome (1968)</p></li><li><p>Trilateral Commission (1973)</p></li></ul></li></ul><p>The Round Table is said to function as a key network or facilitator for the <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/at-least-4-billion-useless-eaters?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2">Committee of 300</a></strong>. It is claimed to have helped the Committee of 300 consolidate control by integrating former imperial corporations like the British East India Company into a unified global cartel that vastly expanded their wealth, power, influence and control.</p><p>Dr. John Coleman, a former US intelligence officer cited in multiple sources, asserts that organizations like the Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA), the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), and the Round Table are all &#8220;spin-offs&#8221; or subordinate entities of the Committee of 300, which sits at the apex of a global power hierarchy. As you continue reading through this, keep in mind that the Round Table and it&#8217;s 6 associated front groups all serve the broader NWO agenda of the Committee of 300.</p><p>The existence of these organizations are not disputed. Although there is debate as to what their true motives are, it is a matter of public record that they exist. When the US Congress examined some of these organizations in the 1950s, they were able to glimpse behind their ideology and learned that despite their seemingly positive intentions, they were in fact working to install a global government.</p><p>The fact of the matter is, these groups <em>do not serve the public</em> as they appear to. Rather these &#8220;divine right to rule&#8221;, bloodline psychopath &#8220;elites&#8221; have formed these groups for the sole purpose of obtaining power and pushing an agenda &#8212; which they conceal under facade ideologies that claim only humanitarian purposes.</p><p>Highly respected and former Georgetown University Professor Carroll Quigley authored multiple books and served as a consultant to the US Department of Defense, the Brookings Institution, and the Smithsonian Institution. He studied a portion of this network for decades and was permitted to observe its records in the early 1960s. He published some of his findings in his books, <em><strong><a href="https://dn721809.ca.archive.org/0/items/the-anglo-american-establishment/The_Anglo-American_Establishment.pdf">The Anglo-American Establishment</a></strong></em> and <em><strong><a href="https://dn790004.ca.archive.org/0/items/TragedyAndHope_501/CarrollQuigley-TragedyAndHope.pdf">Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time</a></strong></em>, which are considerably sourced in this stack.</p><p>There is good news and there is bad news here. The good news is, the truth about all of this is readily available to you, if you want it. The bad news is, yes, all of this is largely true. As usual, certain people are still going to dispute the validity of this and will discredit it, because they either have a vested interest in concealing these activities and agendas or&#8230;they&#8217;re simply still asleep and in denial.</p><p></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>The Round Table</strong></h2><p><strong>The Round Table is a secret society that was started around the turn of the 20th century by Freemason and Rothschild agent, Lord Alfred Milner, who was entrusted the mission by Cecil Rhodes.</strong> </p><p>More specifically, it was in February of 1891 when a group of wealthy men from Oxford and Cambridge formed an organization in Great Britain that became known as the Round Table. This group has gone by other names, such as the Milner Group, Times Crowd, All Souls Group, etc. The group was headed by a multimillionaire named <strong><a

In his will, Rhodes devoted his entire fortune to the creation of the Round Table groups, the purpose of which would ultimately be to form a world government, or as he said in the will &#8212; <em>&#8220;To and for the establishment, promotion and development of a Secret Society, the true aim and object whereof shall be for the extension of British rule throughout the world.&#8221;</em> Cecil Rhodes strong desire for world government was epitomized in his statement &#8212; <em>&#8220;I would annex the planets if I could&#8221;</em>.</p><p><em>&#8220;In the middle 1890&#8216;s Rhodes had a personal income of at least a million pounds sterling a year which he spent so freely for mysterious purposes that he was usually overdrawn on his account. Cecil Rhodes&#8216; commitment to a conspiracy to establish World Government was set down in a series of wills described by Frank Aydelotte in his book American Rhodes Scholarships.&#8221;</em> </p><p> <strong>-Dr. Carroll Quigley, &#8213;Tragedy and Hope</strong></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Frank Aydelotte in his book &#8213; American Rhodes Scholarships wrote, </strong></p><p><em>&#8220;In 1888 Rhodes made his third will&#8230;leaving everything to Lord Rothschild (his financier in mining enterprises), with an accompanying letter enclosing the written matter discussed between us&#8230;the model for this proposed secret society was the Society of Jesus, though he mentions also the Masons&#8230;the secret society was organized on the conspiratorial pattern of circles within circles. Professor Quigley informs us that the central part of the secret society&#8216; was established by March, 1891, using Rhodes&#8216; money. The organization was run for Rothschild by Lord Alfred Milner. The Round Table worked behind the scenes at the highest levels of British government, influencing foreign policy and England&#8216;s involvement and conduct of WWI.&#8221;</em></p><p>The Round Table movement was firmly established by 1909, following the death of Cecil Rhodes in 1902. Alfred Milner succeeded Rhodes as the leader of the secret society &#8212; he formally founded the Round Table in 1909 as a successor to the earlier group, which had been known as Milner&#8217;s Kindergarten. The Round Table was formed by members of the inner circle of Rhodes&#8217;s original secret society, which had been established in 1891. This organization was intended to continue the work of promoting British imperial expansion and internationalism, eventually evolving into institutions such as the Royal Institute of International Affairs (aka Chatham House) and the Council on Foreign Relations.</p><p>Bill Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar and a student of Round Table researcher Professor Quigley at Georgetown University. In his Presidential acceptance speech, he thanked Dr. Quigley and called him his mentor. Carroll Quigley was not only a long-time researcher of the Round Table, but was brought inside for a couple of years as an official historian. He wrote about this in his 1966 book, <em>Tragedy and Hope</em>.</p><p>The Rhodes Scholarships [which Clinton received]&#8230;are known to everyone. What is not so widely known is that Rhodes, in five previous wills, left his fortune to form a secret society that devoted itself to the preservation and expansion of the British Empire. And what does not seem to be known to anyone is that this secret society continues to exist to this day.</p><p><em>&#8220;There does exist, and has existed for a generation, an international anglophile network which operates, to some extent, in the way the radical Right believes the communists act. In fact, this network, which we may identify as the Round Table Groups, has no aversion to cooperating with the Communists, or any other groups and frequently does so. I know of the operations of this network because I have studied it for twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960&#8217;s, to examine its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to most of its aims and have, for much of my life, been close to it and to many of its instruments. I have objected, both in the past and recently, to a few of its policies ... but in general my chief difference of opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown, and I believe its role in history is significant enough to be known.&#8221;

It is based in Britain with branches across the world, and it is the Round Table that orchestrates the network of the Bilderberg Group, Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission and the Royal Institute of International Affairs.&#8221; </em></p><p><strong>&#8211;David Icke &#8213;Tales from the Time Loop</strong> </p><p>Just like the ancient Mystery Schools, the Templars, Masons, Illuminati, and other secret societies, the Round Table groups were/are conducted in a pyramid structure with the most knowledge kept at the peak and each person down the line working on a need-to-know basis, or as Rhodes discussed in his will, a succession of inner and outer circles. </p><p><em>&#8220;The Round Tables started out as a collection of semisecret groups formed along the lines of the Illuminati and freemasonry with inner&#8216; and outer&#8216; circles and a pyramid hierarchy. The inner circle was called the Circle of Initiates (or the Elect) while the outer circle was called the Association of Helpers. Two members of Rhodes&#8217;s inner Circle of Initiates were British financiers Lord Victor Rothschild and Lord Milner.&#8221;</em></p><p><strong>-Jim Marrs &#8213;Rule by Secrecy </strong></p><p><em>&#8220;These organizations, like the Round Table, are made up of inner and outer circles. The inner circle knows the Agenda and works full time to achieve it. The next circle knows much of the Agenda and works to that end in their particular sphere of influence. The next circle is pretty much in the dark about the real Agenda, but is manipulated to make the right&#8216; decisions in their area of operation without knowing the true reason for them.&#8221;</em> </p><p><strong>-David Icke &#8213;The Biggest Secret</strong></p><p><strong>Members of this group would eventually include:</strong> Arthur Balfour, Sir Harry Johnston, Lord Rothschild, Albert Grey, Arnold Tonynbee, Lord Alfred Milner, Arthur Glazebrook, George Parkin, Henry Brichenough, Lyttelton Gell, and Edmund Garret.</p><p><strong>Others were:</strong> Sir John B. Seeley, Reginald Baliol Brett, Leopold S. Amery, Edward Grigg, Philip H. Kerr (Lord Lothian), Jan Christiaan Smuts, Lord Aston, Lord Brand, Lionel Curtis, Geoffrey Dawson, William T. Stead, H.G. Wells, and Lord Bertrand Arthur Russell.</p><p>Rhode&#8217;s fortune was managed by Lord Milner until 1925 and more funding for the Round Table group originated from wealthy families such as Beit, Astor, and Bailey. Then, beginning in 1925, significant contributions came from other wealthy families associated with international banking and private foundations such as Carnegie, Morgan, Rockefeller, and Whitney. The purpose of this group was the global expansion of the British Empire. It was to bring all of the major countries of the planet under the rule of the British Crown.</p><p>A portion of Rhodes&#8217; fortune was devoted to a program at Oxford University known as the Rhodes Scholarship, which allows for students to learn ruling class concepts. The scholarship, according to Professor Quigley, is run by the Round Table group which uses it to promote the global expansion of the British Empire.</p><p>Between 1910 and 1915 the group studied the causes of the American Revolution and the lessons they learned. They discussed more subtle and efficient methods for expanding the empire globally. <em>&#8220;They were constantly harping on lessons to be learned from the failure of the American Revolution and the success of the Canadian federation of 1867&#8221;,</em> Professor Quigley tells us. They learned the dangers of using military forces to rule their vassal countries from London.</p><p>It was decided that military occupations were too costly and overt. Instead, bonds of economic captivity were to be established in all target countries. The debt vassal countries were to be given <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-us-was-masonic-satanic-from-the">the illusion of freedom</a></strong> in an informal empire. The British elite found this to be a more effective method of enforcing their rule than keeping soldiers in the streets or using them to collect taxes in support of the empire. They also decided it would be best to change the name <em>British Empire</em> to <em>Commonwealth of Nations</em>.</p><p>From 1884 to about 1915, this group worked nonstop to extend the British Empire. They established these informal Round Table groups for discussion and lobbying in each target country where the political, financial, and educational leaders of each nation would be recruited. By 1915, the Round Table group existed in South Africa, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, and America. </p><p>The American branch was run by George Louis Beer, Walter Lippmann, Frank Aydelotte, Whitney Shepardson, Thomas W. Lamont, Jerome D. Green, Erwin D. Canham, and others. The informal name given to the American branch of the Round Table was the <em>Eastern Establishment</em>, which has played a significant role in American history. It includes wealthy families on the east coast that formed financial alliances such as Rockefeller, Whitney, Payne, Morgan, and others.</p><p>They function through a network of banks, insurance companies, utilities, and other corporations. They have used foundations, academic centers, and other tax-exempt refugees to shelter their financial endowments and shenanigans. The Eastern Establishment is outside of parties. <strong>It began influencing both major political parties in 1880 and gained considerable control over them by 1900.</strong> This alliance of wealthy families is centered in New York, with satellite bases in Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Chicago, and Boston.</p><p></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>The Royal Institute for International

This occurred at a meeting in May of 1919 at the Hotel Majestic in Paris during the Treaty of Versailles. This meeting was attended by Lionel Curtis, Lord Milner, Philip Kerr, Lord Robert Cecil, and other Round Table members.</p><p>The name for the front would be the <em>Royal Institute for International Affairs</em> (RIIA). An additional one would be created later called the <em>Institute of Pacific Relations</em> (IPR). These RIIA/IPR groups sprung up between 1919 and the early 1930s in all major British dominions, including: America, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa, China, Japan, France, The Netherlands, and the Soviet Union.</p><p>They were formed around the existing Round Table groups which had already been established in these countries. In America it was known as the <em>Council on Foreign Relations</em> (CFR), and was originally run by J.P. Morgan. These fronts for the Round Table allowed it to formally expand its ideas of British imperialism.</p><p><em>&#8220;At the end of the war of 1914 [World War 1], it became clear that the organization of this system [the Round Table] had to be greatly extended &#8230; This front organization, called the Royal Institute of International Affairs, had as its nucleus in each area the existing submerged Round Table Group. In New York it was known as the Council on Foreign Relations, and was a front for J. P. Morgan and Company. </em></p><p><strong>-Dr. Carroll Quigley, &#8213;Tragedy and Hope</strong></p><p>Later the plan was changed to create an ostensible autonomy because it seemed unwise to set up a single institute with branches. It had to be made to appear that the CFR in America, and the RIIA in Britain, were really independent bodies, lest the American public become aware the CFR was in fact a subsidiary of the Round Table Group and react in patriotic fury. Though they were given different names to mask their autonomy, the RIIA and CFR are just sub-branches of the Rhodes-Milner Round Table.</p><p></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>Council on Foreign Relations</strong></h2><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png" width="600" height="314" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:314,&quot;width&quot;:600,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!k1OX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F53405159-dab0-485e-a811-dc940abefad5_600x314.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><em>&#8220;Today the C.F.R. remains active in working toward its final goal of a government over all the world &#8212; a government which the Insiders and their allies will control.

Although the CFR and RIIA became independent organizations, they have always maintained close ties. It was originally run by Morgan men and financed by Morgan money.</p><p>The founding president was John W. Davis, with Paul Cravath as the vice president. The CFR included a council of 13 others from the Morgan Bank such as Owen D. Young, Russell C. Leffingwell, Norman Davis, Frank L. Polk, Whitney Shepardson, Isaiah Bowman Stephan P. Duggan, Otto Kahn, and George Wickersham. Some other early members include: Henry Davison, Harold Swift, W. Averill Harriman, Thomas Thacher, John Foster Dulles, Allen Dulles, Thomas Lamont, Paul Cravath, Paul Warburg (one of the creators of the Federal Reserve), Mortimer Schiff, and various other Morgan partners.</p><p><strong>This is the group which designed the United Nations &#8212; the first major successful step on the road to world government.</strong> <strong>At least forty-seven CFR members were among the American delegates to the founding of the United Nations in San Francisco in 1945.</strong> </p><p>The CFR exerted control over public opinion using media outlets such as the <em>Christian Science Monitor, Boston Evening Transcript, Washington Post, New York Herald Tribune</em>, and <em>New York Times</em>. It is made up of international bankers, members of other think tanks, foundation executives, ambassadors, past and present presidents, lobbyists, secretaries of state, media owners, university presidents, Supreme Court and federal judges, and military leaders from the pentagon and NATO.</p><p>CFR members have included executives from the following media outlets: <em>New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Knight Newspapers, NBC, CBS, Time, Life, Fortune, Business Week, US News and World Report</em>, etc.</p><p>The CFR basically describes itself as a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, dedicated to improving the understanding of foreign policy by exchanging ideas. Past funding for the CFR has come from General Motors, Bristol-Meyers Squib, Texaco, Xerox, German Marshal Fund, McKnight Foundation, Dillon Fund, Ford Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation, Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Starr Foundation, and the Pew Charitable Trusts.</p><p>When the core members of the CFR decide that the US Government should adopt a particular policy, significant resources are organized to promote the policy and to discredit any opposition. It has been the source of some major government decisions, and serves as a recruiting ground for high ranking government officials.</p><p>A September 1922 issue of its magazine <em>Foreign Affairs</em> mentioned that, world government was necessary if peace and prosperity were to be realized.  <em>Study Number 7</em>, released by the CFR in 1959, mentioned building a <em>&#8220;new international order&#8221;</em> which would be under the control of the UN.</p><p><strong>Researchers have concluded that despite the appearance of being an innocent forum for the exchange of ideas, its ultimate goal is the consolidation of the global economy into the hands of a few wealthy families who intend to create a global dictatorship.</strong> </p><p>The CFR has been described by the Reece Committee, which investigated tax-exempt foundations in the 1950s, as a &#8220;virtual agency&#8221; of the US Government which has propagandized the creation of a global government.

These corporations, in turn, control essential minerals, energy, transportation, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, telecommunications, and entertainment&#8212;in other words, the basics of modern life. They also provide an inner core of ranking government officials on a revolving door basis. These officials often implement the very policies conceived and desired by the societies. These societies hold considerable sway over national elections and policy, yet seem strangely immune to any investigation, whether by government or the mass media. Since its inception in 1913, there has never been an outside, objective audit of the Federal Reserve System despite periodic calls for such.&#8221;</em> </p><p><strong>-Jim Marrs &#8212; Rule by

Its publicized goal is to achieve world peace, prevent wars, and facilitate cooperation in areas such as international law, security, economic development, and human rights. It contains multiple subsidiary organizations which carry out its supposed missions.</p><p>Also connected to the UN are the World Bank (WB) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which were created in 1944 to facilitate global monetary cooperation in order to &#8220;abolish poverty&#8221;. The World Trade Organization (WTO), which sets rules for international trade is also associated with the UN.</p><p>The UN was formed after a conference known as the United Nations Conference on International Organization (UNCIO) which took place from April 25 to June 26 1945 in San Francisco. This conference was attended by leaders from 50 nations, and a variety of NGOs which were involved in drafting the UN charter. Also at this meeting were 47 CFR members including Alger Hiss and Harry Dexter White, both exposed as communist spies. Other CFR members were Nelson Rockefeller and John Foster Dulles.</p><p>It must be noted that these individuals, and the CFR in general, had much to do with building Nazi Germany. On December 14, 1946 the UN took a gift of $8.6 million from John D. Rockefeller Jr. to purchase the 18 acres of land which it now sits on along the East River in New York City. Professor Quigley mentioned that the Anglo-American Establishment decided that UN would be at the top of this global government.</p><p>Other astute researchers on this subject have agreed that the UN is yet another front for the international bankers, to be used as the controlling center of a world government, with the IMF and WB as the world&#8217;s central banks. </p><p><strong>The UN Charter, which the CFR would like to have the US Constitution replaced with, is essentially a charter for global communism. The Communist Party USA is said to have strongly supported the UN in its early history through its journal </strong><em><strong>Political Affairs</strong></em><strong>.</strong></p><p>H.G. Wells, who mentioned that communism would be used as a consolidation tool and who supported the League of Nations, referred to this movement as &#8220;outright world-socialism&#8221; that was scientifically planned and directed.</p><p></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>The Bilderberg Group</strong></h2><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2ZHF!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff76b5d54-184d-4826-b8d6-d483c96610a2_738x500.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2ZHF!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff76b5d54-184d-4826-b8d6-d483c96610a2_738x500.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2ZHF!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff76b5d54-184d-4826-b8d6-d483c96610a2_738x500.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2ZHF!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff76b5d54-184d-4826-b8d6-d483c96610a2_738x500.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2ZHF!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff76b5d54-184d-4826-b8d6-d483c96610a2_738x500.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2ZHF!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff76b5d54-184d-4826-b8d6-d483c96610a2_738x500.jpeg" width="738" height="500" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f76b5d54-184d-4826-b8d6-d483c96610a2_738x500.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:500,&quot;width&quot;:738,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Daniel Estulin and the phony 'Bilderberg conspiracy' &#8211;

The Rockefellers and Rothschilds played an important role in its creation.</p><p>The group is composed of European nobility including royal families from Britain, The Netherlands, Sweden, and Spain, as well as heads of multinational corporations, Wall Street investors, high-level politicians from Europe and North America, military leaders, international bankers, and media executives. There are about 100 members who attend regularly, with cross memberships in groups such as the Trilateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations, Bohemian Grove, and the Order of Skull and Bones.</p><p><strong>Some past attendees include:</strong></p><p>Henry Kissinger, Lord Peter Carrington, Queen Beatrix of The Netherlands, Prime Minister of Finland Esko Aho, German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, German banker Hans Otto Pohl, Franz Vranitsky President of Austria, and King Juan Carlos and Queen Sophia of Spain.</p><p><strong>Others that have attended are: </strong></p><p>Jacques Chirac of France, Etienne D&#8217;avignon Societe General of Belgium, Ali Babacan Minister of the Economy in Turkey, President of the French National Assembly Jean Louis Debre, and members of the Rockefeller and Rothschild dynasties.</p><p>Their meetings are said to be financed by tax-exempt foundations, such as Ford, Carnegie, and Rockefeller. All mainstream media outlets have attended these meetings. Some include representatives from <em>ABC, NBC, PBS, US News and World Report, Time Magazine, New York Daily News, Atlantic Monthly, Wall Street Journal, Dow Jones and Company, Los Angeles Times, New York Times, Washington Post</em>, and others.</p><p>Since the years of Dwight Eisenhower, Bilderberg has had a direct influence on the White House. This control extends to its interlocked organizations such as the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission. </p><p><strong>They too are accustomed to selecting and &#8220;owning&#8221; the President of the US. </strong></p><p>Jerry Ford and his vice president Nelson Rockefeller both attended these meetings. President James Carter and his vice president Walter Mondale attended Bilderberg meetings.</p><p>William Clinton attended a Bilderberg meeting in 1991 and became president in 1992. He was also a member of the Trilateral Commission. Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are said to have attended a Bilderberg meeting together in Chantilly, Virginia on June 6, 2008.</p><p>At Bilderberg meetings, major policies which have global significance are decided. For instance, the plan for a common European currency (the euro) was formulated by the Bilderbergers. The euro was a major step toward global government and made it easier for the international banks to consume smaller banks.

The COR plays a vital role in all U.S. Government planning, internal and external. It has nothing to do with Rome, Italy or the Catholic Church. The name was chosen deliberately to deceive.</p><p>More recently it has acted as the foreign policy think tank of the <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/at-least-4-billion-useless-eaters?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2">Committee of 300</a></strong> and carried out its decisions. Some of the wealthiest families of Europe and the US belong to the COR, whose membership list remains a closely-guarded secret. It is known that the late Giovanni Agnelli, also a top Illuminati figure, was one of its most influential members, whose council was sought by such world leaders as Winston Churchill, Nikita Khrushchev and President H.W. Bush.</p><p>The COR was responsible for a 1968 population &#8220;study&#8221; called &#8220;<strong><a href="https://archive.org/details/limitstogrowth0000done/mode/2up">The Limits to Growth</a></strong>&#8221; &#8212; the purpose being population control and it has become one of the &#8220;Bibles&#8221; for the retarded &#8220;religion&#8221; of man-made climate change and earth catastrophism. Another prominent COR member, Aurelio Peccei, advocated carrying out the suggestion of Bertrand Russell &#8212; the introduction of a plague similar to the Black Plague that would wipe out unwanted people and bring about a drastic reduction in population in countries like South America and Africa. </p><p>Nuclear power stations generating the cheapest source of electric power known to the world were bitterly opposed by the COR from their very inception, to protect the oil industry &#8212; many of whose top executives belong to the COR and the Illuminati.

They are called &#8220;<strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-black-nobility-part-2">Black Nobility</a></strong>&#8221; because of their use of dirty tricks, murder, terrorism, unethical behavior &#8212; &#8220;black&#8221; deeds. The Venetian Black Nobility consists of the richest and most ancient of all European families, their wealth apparently far surpassing that of the Rothschilds or Rockefellers, for instance, and they are part of the Committee of 300 (and Illuminati) &#8212; the most powerful controlling body in the world. </p><p>One of the oldest of the Venetian Black Nobility dynasties is the Guelph dynasty. Queen Elizabeth II, for instance, was a Black Guelph &#8212; her great grandmother Victoria descended from that family. <strong>The Black Nobility and European royalty are prominent members of the COR, which has as its objective, the dissolution of the United States as an industrial and agricultural power.</strong></p><p></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>The Trilateral Commission</strong></h2><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ETLl!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F1469576c-c8a7-4f2c-af07-586ddb21c183_480x360.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ETLl!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F1469576c-c8a7-4f2c-af07-586ddb21c183_480x360.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ETLl!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F1469576c-c8a7-4f2c-af07-586ddb21c183_480x360.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ETLl!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F1469576c-c8a7-4f2c-af07-586ddb21c183_480x360.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ETLl!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F1469576c-c8a7-4f2c-af07-586ddb21c183_480x360.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ETLl!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F1469576c-c8a7-4f2c-af07-586ddb21c183_480x360.jpeg" width="618" height="463.5" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/1469576c-c8a7-4f2c-af07-586ddb21c183_480x360.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:360,&quot;width&quot;:480,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:618,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Trilateral Commission Agenda -

Both Carter and vice president Walter Mondale were members of the Trilateral Commission, an organization started in 1973 by David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski to help achieve global government. The establishment needed a new image and used the mainstream news to portray Carter as an innocent outsider concerned with human rights. (Kind of sounds familiar in some ways to a current US president?)</p><p>According to former Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater, the commission was created by Brzezinski and Rockefeller to seize control of the federal government of the United States. Carter then installed other Trilateralists into important positions, such as his secretary of state (Cyrus Vance), national security advisor (Zbigniew Brzezinski), treasury secretary (Michael Blumenthal), defense secretary (Harold Brown), UN ambassador (Andrew Young), and senior state department officials (Richard Cooper and Warren Christopher).</p><p>Ronald Reagan was not a member of this group, but his vice president George W. Bush was, and the White House during his administration contained many commission members. However, Reagan was a member of the closely related <em>Bohemian Grove</em>. George W. Bush was also a Trilateral Commission member. He and his son George W. Bush are members of <em>The Order of Skull and Bones</em> and the Bohemian Grove.</p><p></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>Tax Exempt Organizations</strong></h2><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HKdX!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7bba4ef8-e8c7-43de-97ae-76c3b36eb49b_652x376.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HKdX!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7bba4ef8-e8c7-43de-97ae-76c3b36eb49b_652x376.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HKdX!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7bba4ef8-e8c7-43de-97ae-76c3b36eb49b_652x376.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HKdX!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7bba4ef8-e8c7-43de-97ae-76c3b36eb49b_652x376.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HKdX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7bba4ef8-e8c7-43de-97ae-76c3b36eb49b_652x376.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HKdX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7bba4ef8-e8c7-43de-97ae-76c3b36eb49b_652x376.png" width="652" height="376" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/7bba4ef8-e8c7-43de-97ae-76c3b36eb49b_652x376.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:376,&quot;width&quot;:652,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Tax Exempt -

It was initially created to study labor conditions and the treatment of workers by the major U.S industrial firms, but extended its investigations to the charitable organizations (tax-exempt foundations) that they were interlocked with. They were particularly interested in Carnegie and Rockefeller.</p><p>What they discovered seriously concerned them. During the commission hearings, they described an &#8220;emerging danger&#8221; that was so powerful that the existing governmental structure was insufficient to control it. </p><p>The commission learned that, rather than being used for charitable reasons, the foundations were being used by these wealthy elites for unlimited purposes. They had enormous financial resources and were privately managed. The commission concluded that because these private financial entities represented such a grave menace to the republic they should be eliminated. However, no actions were taken to dismantle them. Just listen to or watch NPR programming today and you&#8217;ll witness credits to these very same organizations that are sadly, still alive and well and operating with impunity.</p><p>Another attempt to investigate foundations occurred between 1952 and 1953 under the Cox Committee led by Congressman Edward E. Cox. On August 1, 1951 Congressman Cox introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives to conduct a thorough investigation into tax-exempt foundations. His resolution was passed in the same year.</p><p>Evidence that Congressman Cox observed made him conclude that some of these institutions were being run by people who were using them for subversive purposes. &#8220;They should be investigated and exposed to the pitiless light of publicity,&#8221; he commented. Unfortunately Congressman Cox died before his investigation was completed.</p><p>The commission met the same fate as the one before it. No actions were taken to prevent the expansion of these large foundations or make them accountable to the public. Although the final report released in January 1953 was a whitewash, it did conclude that these foundations were basically subversive (using their resources to destroy the republic in favor of socialism/communism.</p><p>One more attempt to investigate tax-exempt foundations occurred between 1953 and 1955 during the Reece Committee hearings, run by Congressman Carroll Reece of Tennessee. Congressman Reece planned to continue the investigation started by Congressman Cox. It was approved in July of 1953. Once again, the Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations, and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, were investigated.</p><p><strong>Other organizations which came under investigation included: </strong></p><p>The Ford Foundation, RAND Corporation, American Council of Learned Societies, National Research Council, Social Science Research Council, and American Council on Education.</p><p>The committee also had an interest in investigating the National Education Association, League for Industrial Democracy, Progressive Education Association, American Historical Association, John Dewey Society, Anti-Defamation League, and Council on Foreign Relations.</p><p><strong>The committee discovered the following:</strong></p><ul><li><p>That many of these groups were interlocked at the top, with their officers and trustees having cross memberships in multiple groups.</p></li><li><p>That the foundations were funding projects in the social sciences for social engineering that were destructive to the moral, religious, and governmental principles of our society.</p></li><li><p>That the foundations were engaging in subversion by funding projects and promoting socialist/communist ideas to destroy the sovereignty America.</p></li><li><p>The foundations combined their forces to function as a single entity in order to maximize their efforts.</p></li><li><p>The foundations created intermediary organizations which they used as public fronts to sponsor their private subversive political projects.</p></li><li><p>They used public relations firms and the media to portray themselves to the public as humanitarian groups.</p></li><li><p>The foundations, intermediaries, and interlocks were also strongly controlling public education using their vast funds.</p></li><li><p>The goal of these groups was the creation of a global government.</p></li></ul><p>The committee&#8217;s research director Norman Dodd was able to see the minutes of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, where their Board of Trustees discussed if there was any method other than war to cause rapid change in a nation&#8217;s policies. According to Dodd, it was decided in the beginning of 1909 that war was the ideal method.</p><p>The next issue that the Carnegie board discussed was how to involve the US in a major war. Dodd was also able to examine the correspondence that the board had with President Wilson, where Wilson was told not to let WWI end too quickly. When Dodd observed the minutes of the Carnegie Foundation he noticed that their members were congratulating themselves on having gotten America involved in WWI.</p><p>They were pleased with the resulting possibility of world government which it caused. Dodd was also able to determine that the Ford Foundation was using its funds to alter life in the US so that it could be merged into Communism.</p><p>Unfortunately the committee was unable to conduct a complete investigation because the foundations and think tanks controlled the mainstream news and portions of the federal government at that time. However, they did try to warn the public of the fact that there existed a concentration of power with unlimited financial resources that was capable of &#8220;invisible coercion.&#8221;</p><p>The commission mentioned that it was extremely difficult for them to convey what they had discovered through any media outlet without the information being slanted, discredited, and even ridiculed. Congress learned that these wealthy interests were beyond criticism through these channels. The committee itself described the attacks against it as &#8220;incredible.&#8221;</p><p>Norman Dodd, the Research Director of the committee claims that the trials were discontinued because witnesses were being harassed, placed under surveillance, and stalked. Blackmail, death threats, and framings were used.

These Round Table groups work together to exert significant influence over global politics, economics, and international affairs. These groups include <strong>the United Nations, the Bilderberg Group, the Club of Rome, the Royal Institute of International Affairs (also known as Chatham House), the Trilateral Commission, and the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR)</strong>. </p><p>The first one created was the Royal Institute of International Affairs in 1920 in London. It is still going strong today and is a major part of this network. In 1921, came the Council on Foreign Relations in America, which is subordinate to the London Royal Institute of International Affairs. </p><p><strong>Since 1921, virtually every president and endless major positions in the administrations of both parties have been members of the Council on Foreign Relations.</strong></p><p>You cannot become an ambassador for the United States today without being a member of this private organization. In 1954, came the Bilderberg Group set up at the Bilderberg Hotel in Oosterbeek, Holland. And this, like the Trilateral Commission that came in 1972-73, these organizations coordinate the same agenda between apparently unconnected areas of our lives. So for instance, the people that attend and are members of these groups, are the top people in the global military, global politics, global banking, global business, global media, etc.  Therefore, through these organizations the same policy is coordinated.</p><p>The network operates through a hierarchical structure of inner and outer circles, with the innermost circle, referred to as the &#8220;Circle of Initiates&#8221; or &#8220;Elect,&#8221; holding the most knowledge and directing the agenda. This structure allows for coordinated global policy-making behind the scenes, influencing governments, media, academia, and international institutions.</p><p>Unlike occult orders, these groups have no robes or rituals &#8212; their secrecy comes from exclusivity and discretion. They influenced key policies and promote the idea of imperial federation, hoping to bind Britain and its dominions into one powerful bloc. </p><p>The Round Table network is claimed to have been instrumental in shaping major historical events, including the two World Wars and the formation of international institutions like the League of Nations and the United Nations. When we had the First World War, the key people in the American War Administration were members of this round table and the key people in the cabinet in Britain were also members of this same round table. Go figure.</p><p>It is also alleged that this group played a role in the imposition of reparations on Germany after WWI, which contributed to the rise of Adolf Hitler, and they also had a hand in the creation of <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/are-all-wars-bankers-wars?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=reader2">the state of Israel</a></strong>. The network is said to be financially supported by powerful banking dynasties such as the Rothschilds and Rockefellers, with figures like Henry Kissinger and Bill Clinton cited as prominent past members or beneficiaries of its influence.</p><p>So using their orchestrated WWI as an example &#8212; afterwards, when they were deciding how the world would be redrawn as a result of the war, the very same members of the round table were appointed to the Versailles Peace Conference to decide how it would be set up and redrawn. Classic problem, reaction, solution. Create the problem, create the war, get the reaction, something must be done, and then offer the solution. Text book strategy that is still being used against us to great effect today.</p><p>The organizations claim to operate as public or semi-public think tanks, policy groups, and academic institutions, not as clandestine secret societies. The idea of a coordinated global elite controlling world events through these groups remains a false narrative for most &#8212; who simply don&#8217;t want to wake the heck up.</p><p>This roundtable network also accounts for the coordination of the media. Because if you look at the biggest television networks in America, NBC, ABC, CBS, if you look at the Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal,  etc., etc., all over the world, you&#8217;re looking at the people who control those organizations being members of this same roundtable network.  </p><p>The round table group is one of the oldest techniques for manufacturing hidden, elitist consensus among people who should not be governing our lives. Cecil Rhodes formalized it. The Royal Institute of International Affairs and the Council on Foreign Relations institutionalized it. The Bilderberg Conference perfected it.</p><p>The underlying method is older than any of these, and the pattern &#8212; <em>once recognized</em> &#8212; is visible in nearly every major policy shift of the past century.</p><p>Critics like me, view these interlocking Round Table Groups as the blueprint for modern elite control, accusing them of laying the foundations for a &#8220;<strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-new-world-order-agenda">New World Order</a></strong>&#8221;. Supporters, however, argue they are simply visionaries, trying to design stability and peace during increasingly chaotic global times. The existence of a secret, unified global conspiracy orchestrated by the Round Table groups is regarded as fictional by &#8220;mainstream&#8221; (fake and dumb) historians and scholars. </p><p><strong>The truth is, nefarious secrecy does not always look like cloaks and symbols &#8212; it can also look like polished, elitist conversations in private rooms.</strong></p><p>Yes folks, there exists a semi-secret cabal of globalists bent on one world government under the United Nations, world military through expansion of NATO, World Bank/cashless currency and a micro-chipped population. The conspirators are a group of Black Nobility/Illuminati bloodlines, bankers, businessmen, politicians, media owners/personalities, and secret society elites. They implement their power through the vehicles of Freemasonry (and other secret societies) and the Round Table groups &#8212; a key network or facilitator for the <strong><a

Although one should never blindly buy the swirling theories they find on the interwebs, there are some wildly interesting ones here. While I&#8217;m not convinced, this subject matter has become considerably more compelling, given what we&#8217;ve learned about our world over these last few years. </p><p>I&#8217;m talking about the <a href="https://otis.libguides.com/world_fairs/timeline">World Fairs</a> of the 1800&#8217;s to early 1900&#8217;s. On the surface, these were massive international exhibitions intended to celebrate human progress, but when you look closer, they don&#8217;t seem to make sense. The speed of construction, the beauty and scope of the architecture, the technologies on display, and the fact that these entire &#8220;cities&#8221; literally vanished almost overnight. Quite perplexing and it all raises serious questions.</p><p>When you throw in theories about the mud flood, the lost civilization of Tartaria, the Great Reset, and even the concept of aether energy &#8212; you start to see how these fairs have become a focal point for more researchers. I&#8217;m pretty certain you&#8217;ll see why many people are questioning the official narratives on these fairs and are wondering if they are in fact, obscuring untold history. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png" width="1024" height="659" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/adcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:659,&quot;width&quot;:1024,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Smyz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fadcc5f25-fac4-48c4-809b-88c8b1f0ec46_1024x659.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Remarkable Cities That Appeared Out of Nowhere</strong></h3><p>&#8220;The History we&#8217;ve been told is a lie!&#8221;

Chicago&#8217;s fair was nicknamed the &#8220;White City&#8221; because its hundreds of new buildings were supposedly covered in a plaster-like material and painted a uniform white. The result was awe inspiring &#8212; it looked as if one had time traveled back to ancient Rome. People described walking into a new world so beautiful and advanced, that it blew them away. At night, the entire city was illuminated with electric lights &#8212; something so new and overwhelming that visitors wept at the sight.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

The Exhibition opened May 1, 1851, and closed October 15 the same year, attracting some 6,063,986 visitors over the summer, including Queen Victoria, who visited 34 times in all, 15 times in the first month. (It was her husband Prince Albert who had helped to kick the whole thing off, so she was doubly pleased.) The Crystal Palace, as the greenhouse was called, covered 772,784 square feet, plus a gallery of 217,100 square feet, yielding a total of 990,000 square feet of exhibit space for 13,937 exhibitors, 6,556 from <em>outside</em> the British Empire&#8212;meaning more than half came from <em>within</em>. The Exhibition cost its promoters 169,998 pounds sterling, but brought in over two-and-a-half times that amount (451,273 pounds sterling by September 24, 1851). If World Fairs became <em>de rigeur </em>for showcasing the grandeur of Empire, the Crystal Palace set the bar very high.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg" width="640" height="424" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:424,&quot;width&quot;:640,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V4t9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd9065c10-f4aa-4670-a488-184279a79d76_640x424.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Just look at it!

Build a city. Surprise the world. Bulldoze and bury it. Erase it from the map, leaving behind only photographs and a handful of remnants. Why??? The official answer is that these were temporary structures built for short-term use. But to many there is a more logical interpretation that implies something else &#8212; an intentional erasure.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>The Great Reset Theory</strong></h3><p>According to this view, the fairs weren&#8217;t just celebrations of progress &#8212; they were intentional tools to rewrite history. Imagine that there was once a civilization with advanced knowledge of energy, technology and architecture. Something happened that destroyed or purposely erased much of it &#8212; a disaster, a war, etc. The victors needed a new narrative that put them in control and explained away the remnants of the old world.</p><p>Enter the World Fairs. These events were, in this theory, carefully staged productions. Older buildings that had survived were covered in facades to make them appear &#8220;new.&#8221; The fairs acted as introductions &#8212; here&#8217;s modern technology, here&#8217;s modern architecture, here&#8217;s the story of progress we want you to believe. Once the curtain fell, the &#8220;temporary&#8221; buildings were demolished, taking with them the physical evidence that these might not have been new at all. Rather, these fairs were used to erase our true history &#8212; evidenced by such grand architecture and the technology required to have made it.</p><p><strong>The fairs served as a past reset. </strong></p><p>They programmed the public into thinking this was the beginning of modern civilization.

into the mix. On old European maps, you&#8217;ll see vast areas of Asia labeled &#8220;Tartary&#8221; or &#8220;Tartaria&#8221;. Historians dismiss this as a vague term used for little-known lands. But in the &#8220;conspiracy&#8221; world, Tartaria is said to have been a vast, advanced civilization.</p><p>Tartaria has been credited with building the grand architecture we see all over the world &#8212; cathedrals, forts, domes, and palaces that seem far beyond the capabilities of the societies we&#8217;re told built them. The idea is that Tartaria had deep knowledge of technology, architecture, and possibly even free energy. When Tartaria fell, its history was erased, its buildings were repurposed, and its technologies were hidden. The World Fairs, in this story, were a way to reintroduce some of this architecture and technology under new labels and control, while quietly demolishing or hiding the rest.</p><div

How did they pull in the supplies across dirt and fields? </p><p>Anyhow in this view, many of the buildings used for the World Fairs weren&#8217;t newly constructed at all. They were older Tartarian structures that had survived the mud flood. The &#8220;construction&#8221; for the fairs may have simply been digging them out, adding staircases to reach the new ground level, and putting fresh plaster facades on to make them appear as temporary fair buildings. Once the fairs ended, the structures could be demolished or reburied, hiding the evidence again.</p><p>This theory explains the speed of construction, too. If you&#8217;re not really building from scratch &#8212; if you&#8217;re just refurbishing existing buildings &#8212; it&#8217;s a lot easier to create a &#8220;new city&#8221; in a short time.

It is said people were so struck in awe, many wept when they saw it. The official explanation is that it was powered by Westinghouse&#8217;s alternating current system, designed by Nikola Tesla. But some believe the architecture itself played a role &#8212; that the White City was wired into an older, hidden energy system.

One of the most famous was the <a href="https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/infant-incubator-coney-island">baby incubator exhibit</a>. At multiple fairs, including Chicago and later at Coney Island, premature babies were displayed in glass incubators for the public to see. The incubators were presented as cutting-edge medical technology, but the fact that they were already functioning at public exhibitions suggests the technology was likely far more established than

In many cases, these inventions appeared suddenly, as if pulled from nowhere, and were showcased to massive audiences as brand-new marvels. The &#8220;conspiracy&#8221; angle argues that these were not inventions being unveiled for the first time &#8212; they were older technologies being reintroduced at a controlled pace, framed as modern progress when in fact they may have been inherited knowledge.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Discarding the Evidence?</strong></h3><p>Another recurring theme with the fairs is oddly common and worldwide destruction. Fires destroyed portions of the Chicago fairgrounds, including the Cold Storage Building, in spectacular fashion. Other fairs saw their grounds demolished or dismantled almost immediately after closing. Entire cities were erased in months. Why on God&#8217;s earth would they want to take all of these down? How does that make sense?</p><p>It&#8217;s easy or convenient to say this was just practicality &#8212; that these were never meant to last. But in &#8220;conspiracy&#8221; circles, destruction served a different role &#8212; erasure. If the fairgrounds contained evidence of older civilizations, or technologies that didn&#8217;t fit the official narratives and timelines, the easiest way to cover it up was to burn or tear them down. Once gone, only photographs and written accounts remained, and those could be spun however the elites wanted.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2

months before the Hindenburg went up in flames on May 6, 1937?</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>What&#8217;s the Big Deal About This?</strong></h3><p>Why do these Fairs matter so much to &#8220;conspiracy&#8221; researchers? It&#8217;s because they sit at the intersection of several intriguing theories. They highlight anomalies in architecture, technology, and history. They tie into the theory of a Great Reset &#8212; the idea that history has been rewritten to erase evidence of older civilizations. They connect with the mud flood hypothesis, which explains the buried buildings that we still see today. They link to Tartaria, the alleged lost empire and they fit with the theory of aether, a suppressed free energy source.</p><p>The fairs also matter because they were witnessed by millions of ordinary people. These weren&#8217;t secret experiments in hidden labs &#8212; they were massive public spectacles. If you wanted to reset public memory and roll out a new narrative of progress, there would be no better way than to dazzle the masses with breathtaking architecture, futuristic technologies, and glowing cities, then erase it all and tell them it was only temporary.</p><p>Was there a great empire in the Americas long before Columbus arrived (if he even existed)?

</strong></figcaption></figure></div><div><hr></div><h3><strong>In Closing </strong></h3><p>When you look at it all more critically, it&#8217;s really hard not to see things that just don&#8217;t make sense or add up.  These fairs seem way too big, too grand, too fast, and far too thoroughly erased to fit into the official story. Were they exactly what history tells us we&#8217;re supposed to think &#8212; massive temporary exhibitions that were demolished simply because they weren&#8217;t meant to last? Or does the more critical and rational mind lean towards something else entirely &#8212; a controlled reveal of older civilization technologies and architectures, all part of a plan to <em>reset</em> and install a new version of history??</p><p>What makes this theory powerful isn&#8217;t the definitive proof &#8212; it&#8217;s the photographs, the timelines, and the oddities that stand on their own. To even the dimmest of skeptics, they whisper that history is probably not what we&#8217;ve been told.</p><p>Were these World Fairs purposeful exercises of &#8220;programming&#8221; a new historical narrative while wiping out evidence of an empire that had existed before? Of course, I don&#8217;t know. All I know is that these last 5 years have taught us that we had better question many of the official historical narratives that we were taught. &#8220;Elite&#8221; bloodlines have been running our world and manipulating mankind for far longer than any of us have been alive. Perhaps in ways larger than we&#8217;ve ever imagined.</p><p>So the next time you see an ornate old dome topped with a spire, or pass by an old building with windows and doors oddly below ground, or look at photographs of a erased World Fair cities, pause and ponder &#8212; do I really believe the official narratives? Does all of this really make sense? Or could all of this be part of a purposely lost story? A past reset, that we&#8217;ve only begun to rediscover? </p><p>Who knows but we should seek, think critically and be open to uncomfortable new truths.</p><p><strong>God bless.</strong></p><div

again.</p><p>If you&#8217;ve had that feeling like your life doesn&#8217;t belong to you, something is off, maybe the choices, the emotions, even the arguments in your head aren&#8217;t really yours.  That is not you being paranoid at all.  That is the program running and the crazy part about all of this is...</p><p>It didn&#8217;t start with your phone. It didn&#8217;t start with TikTok. It started well before you were born in a quiet office with men mapping out the human mind. But here&#8217;s what almost nobody comprehends:  </p><p><em><strong>There is a reason that anger feels addictive or malaise feels normal. </strong></em></p><p>There&#8217;s a reason that so many feel the way they do. It was conditioned. Programmed. And the moment you see how, you can&#8217;t unsee it. Where did all of this programming really begin? </p><p>It was in London in 1921. This is <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tavistock_Institute">the Tavistock Institute</a>. They said it was about helping soldiers heal from shell shock, but again, they lied. Just like so many other programs, once they opened pandora&#8217;s box, they never closed it back up again. The experiments on us never ended.  </p><p>Tavistock was not about treating shell shock. It was a believable cover story (like so many others we are fed). But what they actually found &#8212; trauma doesn&#8217;t just break people &#8212; it softens them up and makes them programmable. They were not fixing soldiers like they said and were instead, testing on civilians. They were running war psychology on the entire population. Fear, anger, grief, confusion &#8212; Tavistock used all of these things like tools.  </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg" width="625" height="347.65625" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:445,&quot;width&quot;:800,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:625,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HWq7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fba7de14f-34ff-4db8-854b-0fcfe5f87d9a_800x445.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><em><strong>Once you know how to turn the herd turn into a stampede, you don&#8217;t need more campaigning.

Its involvement are all over NATO, Cold War propaganda, and the birth of mass advertising (programming).</p><p>Then a dude named <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Bernays">Edward Bernays</a> appears and he&#8217;s actually <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmund_Freud">Sigmund Freud&#8217;s</a> nephew, which is &#8216;effing weird and just another <em>huge </em>coincidence, I&#8217;m sure. But instead of analyzing the subconscious, he figured out how to turn the unconscious brain into a pliable product. He is apparently the reason that women became encouraged to smoke in public. Edward branded cigarettes as tools of freedom. He&#8217;s also the reason that we link bacon and eggs with breakfast &#8212; not tradition or science &#8212; it was an ad campaign. He weaponized impulse. He made war attractive.   </p><p>A while later, the Operation Mockingbird program launches from the CIA. The CIA figured out the easiest way to control a country was through emotional headlines. Think about threats and war and the potential for some scary new bomb being dropped &#8212; but it was all just propaganda. Does anyone remember the &#8220;duck and cover under your desk&#8221; bomb drills they subjected kids to at a young age? Do you remember how that made you feel? Well, as it turns out, it&#8217;s simply things like this that are needed to start controlling people.

It&#8217;s your own neurochemicals and neurotransmitters being used against you. The success of their &#8220;drug&#8221; is now measured in how many targeted headlines, notifications and videos they can get you to consume and react to.</p><p>So now the experiment isn&#8217;t in some creepy lab. It&#8217;s tucked in your pocket. Every swipe of your (not so) smart phone &#8212; every pause, every time you react, your preferences and influences are being mapped and fed into your personal algorithm. </p><p><em><strong>It&#8217;s not just for advertising and it&#8217;s not for your benefit!</strong></em></p><p>It&#8217;s all to condition us. They learn what interests you, moves you and angers you. They feed you more of your personal prescription until your emotionally charged brain belongs to them. You&#8217;re being taught what to care about, what to hate, what to fear, slowly, without any clue, until the thoughts in your head are largely no longer yours. You&#8217;re now pliable and can be herded.</p><p>Anger or rage is one of the easiest and most effective triggers you can pull in a human. It allows them to steer you. It doesn&#8217;t matter what you&#8217;re even mad about, just that you&#8217;re angry. Your anger glues your attention where they want it and while you are in that state, they are distracting, programming and galvanizing the prescribed beliefs that they want.  </p><p>Look around at the world &#8212; everyone is stressed or pissed. Anxiety is rampant. People are depressed and don&#8217;t even know why. People are drugged up daily, just to get by. Make no mistake about it, it&#8217;s all as designed! </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg" width="639" height="359.4375" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:819,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:639,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!pv7m!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9a1b4258-59fa-40f5-ba12-d325f61ca658_3840x2160.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><em><strong>The fact is, a distracted, divided and exhausted population cannot resist effectively! The effort to bring us there as a society is not accidental! </strong></em></p><p>What do you see all around you with most people these days? They are all programmed into distraction &#8212; chasing the next dopamine hit, chasing materialism, chasing validation, chasing followers, and a false persona. Even when people succeed at most of their goals, what is the outcome? They more often than not, feel nothing. On to the next &#8220;thing&#8221;.  </p><p><em><strong>They don&#8217;t want you dead just yet, they just want you emotionally numbed. They want you distracted and busy blaming everyone and everything but yourself. They don&#8217;t want you to realize that you&#8217;ve simply become a specimen in their behavior modification program.</strong></em></p><p>With that said, many of us have been catching on and something in many people already knows. I think there is a part of us that realizes we never signed up for what they are selling. We haven&#8217;t forgotten who and what we really are. We realize something is off.  We realize that we must stop thinking, feeling and acting the way we are being told to.</p><p><em><strong>We are not what the AI algorithm says we are!</strong></em><strong>  </strong></p><p>Shortly after we stop feeding this machine, we stop craving it. Once we realize (or remember) this, we can&#8217;t go back. Some have perhaps felt this most of our lives. As if this whole Truman Show or Matrix reality makes little sense. Perhaps you&#8217;ve felt like you don&#8217;t belong and that everything feels backward and fake. Unhealthy on so many levels. Devoid of natural or spiritual order. </p><p>If you thought mass brainwashing and mind control was the thing of Hollywood movies, think again. There are undoubtedly well-funded groups and programs, systematically creating campaigns to control your mind. To socially engineer society. All pushing us towards a desired set of outcomes. Outcomes that are NOT good for any of us, who wish to remain free. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg" width="600" height="350" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:350,&quot;width&quot;:600,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rpTO!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F204ece3e-761d-464f-8c14-84e9644aafe1_600x350.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><h4><strong>I encourage you to take this seriously</strong> <strong>&#8212; turn off the TV!</strong> </h4><p>UNPLUG.

I hope more of us <strong>stop falling for their emotional headlines, fake events and programming!</strong> Turn off the TV. Read books. Follow good substack writers. Watch as many documentaries as possible. Pray for discernment.

href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/mystery-babylon">William &#8220;Bill&#8221; Cooper</a>, with a couple of modern day points and context that I personally threw in. While I am personally undecided on <em>some</em> of his beliefs, I do find his theories and perspectives quite intriguing and thought provoking. He does bring to light misconceptions that most have about many of our founding fathers &#8212; most of which are easy to research and confirm for yourselves. Note that he does make one claim in his lecture regarding George Washington that appears incorrect (thus I omitted it from the text below but it is in the video posted at the end &#8212; well worth your time).</p><p></p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>Most believe that our founding fathers were Christian.</strong></h3><p>Yes, the founders of this country, by and large, <em>claimed</em> to be Christian. No doubt many were. At the same time, many of them <em>weren&#8217;t </em>actual Christians but pretended to be. </p><p><strong>What were they then? </strong></p><p>A simple search and you&#8217;ll discover that many of them were <strong>DEISTS and MASONS</strong> &#8212; you can easily <a href="https://merrimackvalleyhavurah.wordpress.com/2024/10/22/america-founded-by-deists-free-from-official-religion/">research this</a> and confirm it for yourself.</p><p><strong>Well, what pray tell, are Deists?</strong> </p><p>Deists largely reject the authority of religious scriptures, such as the Bible, as sources of divine knowledge. They view any miraculous events described within the pages as myths or superstitions. They also largely deny the existence of a personal, intervening God and reject doctrines like original sin, the divinity of Jesus, and the resurrection.</p><div

many blindly assume or believe Thomas Jefferson was a Christian? I believed that notion until I read the truth about Thomas Jefferson and studied a bit about his life. The truth is, Thomas Jefferson actually <em>hated</em> Christianity. <em>Thomas Jefferson even tore up the Bible</em>. That is, Thomas Jefferson actually <em>compiled his own Bible</em> because he said that the God of the universe could not <em>possibly</em> be that terrible God represented in the Geneva or KJV Bible! I assumed guys like Thomas Jefferson were Christians, until I found out what he really was &#8212; a DEIST.  So was Benjamin Franklin!</p><p>How many people know that Benjamin Franklin was the <a href="https://mdmasons.org/about-md-masons/famous-masons/ben-franklin/">master of the Masonic Lodge in Philadelphia</a>? How many know that he was the master of the <a href="https://scottishritenmj.org/blog/ben-franklin-lodge-nine-sisters">Lodge of Nine Muses in France</a>? Have you ever looked into the Lodge of Nine Muses? You should! You should also be shocked at what you find &#8212; especially if you still think he could have been a Christian. </p><p>How many people know that when Benjamin Franklin was in the colonies, he pretended himself to be a pious Christian, although he was not seen in church very much? Sure, he pretended to be a pious Christian. However, he entered into a sexual relationship and a living arrangement with two different women and sired children by both of them and never married either one. Not too Christian sounding, right?

And they&#8217;re all going to think that it was done accidentally by them, and we didn&#8217;t have anything to do with it. Something like that. And that folks is exactly what&#8217;s happening all around us today, if you&#8217;re paying attention. </p><p>Let&#8217;s be clear. We are in this situation because all of us, myself included, have been uneducated about all of this and largely uncaring about it all for most of our lives. Unless we change this, we are never going to turn anything around.</p><p>Until we <em>break out of that mold</em> of the history we were taught, we won&#8217;t see the ultimate truth of this country, who founded it and why, and where it&#8217;s going. We won&#8217;t see what&#8217;s happening today, and what the consequences are going to be for us down the line if they succeed with their &#8220;<a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/the-new-world-order-agenda?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;showWelcomeOnShare=false">Great Work</a>&#8221;.</p><p><strong>Most of what plays out in our lives is all architected folks.</strong></p><p>Foreign Relations is published by the Council on Foreign Relations &#8212; you can subscribe to their publication. Interestingly enough, whatever they write about usually happens a few years later. Whatever it is, it&#8217;s almost like magic!</p><p>If they&#8217;re not involved in any of this, how come the things they write about always seems to come about? Once we study them, their symbology, what they believe-in and what their agenda is &#8212; &#8220;history&#8221; becomes much clearer. They have planned and have been slowly but surely engineering how we live, how we think, how we work &#8212; <em>everything</em>.</p><p><strong>Hitler tried it too, didn&#8217;t he??</strong></p><p>There is this big deception or misconception that Hitler was a right-wing guy. <strong>Hitler was a socialist.</strong> Nazi means <em>National Socialist German Workers&#8217; Party</em>. Hitler <em>socialized</em> Germany. Control is always presented on the left. <em>Always.</em> If you&#8217;re left-wing, you&#8217;re essentially more for the control of yourself and other people.</p><p>The scale always measures two extremes. On the far left, we have total control of everything and everyone, and by the way, ownership of everything and everyone by the state (communism). On the extreme far right, you ultimately have the total absence and lack of all control by anybody and that&#8217;s akin to anarchy.</p><p><strong>Anarchy sucks. Communism sucks.</strong></p><p>Socialism is just a little step above communism and it usually degrades into communism and it also sucks. A constitutional republic however, is somewhere in the middle of these two extremes and provides safeguards to protect individual freedoms and create or endow liberty. </p><p>Whether people believe in God or not, if they don&#8217;t understand that freedom and the fact that <strong>liberty must be creator endowed</strong> &#8212; then we are opening the door for somebody to take it away from us &#8212; <em>because they don&#8217;t have to answer to a creator!</em> Otherwise put, our country had darn well better get back to believing in God if we want to stay free! </p><p><strong>If we want to stay free, we have to believe in God &#8212; and not the God of the Deists or Freemasonry!</strong></p><p>There must be something that human beings answer to, in order to protect us from ourselves, because the minute we become God...well, what do you see happening on the world&#8217;s stage? What is Yuval Noah Harari saying on stage? &#8220;We will become like God&#8217;s&#8221;, right? Crazy! There it is, right there. Right on the world&#8217;s stage. It&#8217;s happening. Again.</p><p>Anyhow, liberals are for socialism. Liberals however, started out being for freedom when there wasn&#8217;t any. Being for freedom back then was liberal. Being conservative back then was for the power of the king. Our founding fathers were therefore mostly liberals of the time. </p><p><strong>Now, what is the government??</strong></p><p>The government is a contract signed by the founding fathers, which is called the Constitution for the United States of America. That is the government. That says what the government can do and what the government cannot do. When it can do it and when it cannot do it. Where it can do it and where it cannot do it. </p><p><strong>So, do we live in a democratic country?</strong></p><p>No! Was it ever meant to be democratic? No! Never. So why the heck do we always hear this talk about &#8220;democracy&#8221;?!

They want the benefits. They want the check from the government. They want the job from the government. They want a car from the government. They want medical care from the government. They want everything from the government. More and more young people today act like they <em>deserve</em> all of these things, just because! Or they demand special dispensation, due to whatever subjective tragedy or injustice they are led to believe they have suffered. </p><p>What is the fallacy in all of that??</p><p><em><strong>The government doesn&#8217;t have anything to give you unless they first take it away from you!</strong> </em></p><p>Sigh&#8230;</p><p>Folks &#8212; all of us had better darn well understand the NWO agenda.

And everybody will get down on their knees and <em>thank us</em> for restoring order and security to their lives. And they will be willing to give up just about <em>anything</em> to us for that favor.</p><p>In the United States today, as in many other countries, the agenda has been to create social tensions, dangerous conflicts, and strange new political fronts that cut across the usual divisions of class, race, sex, or party. All the old polarizations and coalitions break up.</p><p><strong>As an example, let&#8217;s just look back at feminism:</strong></p><p>How many women STILL think that Gloria Steinem was doing them a favor?? Gloria Steinem is a communist! Make no mistake about it &#8212; Gloria helped promote the concept of feminism to destroy American family life! Feminism is not good for women overall or our society! Being a responsible woman is good. Being a loving, hard working woman is good (and yes, women should get equal pay for equal work).</p><p>But feminism? Feminism at it&#8217;s core is nothing more than a war between women and men. It was created <em>intentionally</em> to destroy the basic unit of freedom in this country, and that&#8217;s <em>the family</em>. If you don&#8217;t think fronts and movements like this aren&#8217;t being crafted and promoted to push a deeper agenda, then you really haven&#8217;t woken up yet.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png" width="680" height="513" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:513,&quot;width&quot;:680,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0NZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff2c871e0-a4aa-47b9-a1d3-7f2f6109ca48_680x513.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Look people. There has always been a plan. They call it &#8220;the great work&#8221;, the great plan, the lost word, etc. There are many terms for it. It exists. It is being brought about. It is conscious.

We could also go further into how they use and control race, politics, gender, etc., to further divide us and destroy the family.</p><p>One of the major things that I&#8217;ve discovered as of late is that there really are builders &#8212; but they&#8217;re not engaged in building buildings. <em>They&#8217;re engaged in building people.</em></p><p><strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/freemasons-and-noahide-laws">They&#8217;re building what they believe to be the perfect world order and perfect race</a>. </strong></p><p>They&#8217;re attempting to perfect humanity (in <a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/freemasons-and-noahide-laws?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;showWelcomeOnShare=false">their perverted image</a>), in order to control nature.

A lot of information is right there below the surface, if you go looking for it.</p><p><strong>What is their purpose?</strong></p><p>Their whole purpose throughout history has been to teach a small number of bloodlines how to become ADEPT at controlling everyone else and presenting their societies as desirable to the &#8220;profane&#8221;, so that people will go knock on the door and ask how to become an initiated Mason &#8212; and they will be presented with the promise of learning some great secret. </p><p>What is that secret?</p><p><strong>The secret is how to control everybody else. </strong></p><p>Apparently, you understand how to control everybody else once you get to the top of this pyramid of initiation.

I do not doubt this one bit. I&#8217;m certain they also have cancer cures under lock and key, so they can parasite off of our sickness and death. The people we&#8217;re dealing with, truly are that evil.</p><p>It is clear they have suppressed knowledge and technology that could heal and liberate mankind. Instead, they hoard it for themselves and fabricate bunk science that drives their economic sectors like energy and health/medicine. They in turn use those to deceive, poison and parasite off of mankind &#8212; enriching themselves in the process. All of this bunk science (virology, vaccine, climate change, etc, etc) is used as the setup and cover for their mass culling events (think COVID, &#8220;vaccinations&#8221; and whatever they&#8217;ve planned next). </p><h3><strong><a href="https://anamihalceamdphd.substack.com/p/dr-john-coleman-the-club-of-rome">Dr. John Coleman, The Club of Rome, The Satanic Transhumanist Agenda and How the Elites Protect Themselves from Plagues They Start</a></strong></h3><p>By <a href="https://substack.com/profile/41754232-ana-maria-mihalcea-md-phd">Dr. Ana Maria Mihalcea</a></p><blockquote><p>The Club of Rome (&#8220;COR&#8221;) is the chief &#8220;think tank&#8221; for the New World Order that was unknown in America until exposed by Dr. Coleman in 1969 for the very first time and published under the same title in 1970. Set up on the orders of the Committee of 300, its existence was denied until the silver anniversary celebrations of its founding held in Rome 25 years later. The COR plays a vital role in all US government planning, internal and external. It has nothing to do with Rome, Italy or the Catholic Church.</p><p><a href="https://archive.org/details/john-coleman-club-of-rome/mode/2up">Club of Rome</a>, Dr. John Coleman, pg.1</p></blockquote><p>People wonder about why the transhumanist agenda is Satanic and he explains this in his book &#8216;<em>The Club of Rome</em>&#8217; published in 1970:</p><blockquote><p>An order to begin to understand world events, it is necessary for us to realise that the many tragic and explosive events of the 20th century did not just happen by themselves; but that they were planned according to a well laid out blueprint. Who were the planners and creators of significant events?</p><p>The creators of these often violent and revolutionary events belong in the main to secret societies that infest our world, just as they have always done. Mostly, these secret societies are based upon the occult and occult practices, but as with all secret societies to make up secret governments, they are controlled by the <strong>Committee of 300</strong>. Those poorly informed persons, who believe that devil worship, demons and witchcraft have vanished from modern society, are misinformed. Today, occult-based secret societies along with Luciferianism, Black Magic and Voodoo, are flourishing and appear to be far more widespread than was originally thought.</p><p><a href="https://archive.org/details/john-coleman-club-of-rome/mode/2up">Club of Rome</a>, Dr. John Coleman, pg.7</p></blockquote><p><strong>What is their agenda? It emerged very clearly from Club of Rome meetings that its main purpose and objective was to:</strong></p><ul><li><p>retard industrial development;</p></li><li><p>hold back scientific research;</p></li><li><p>depopulate cities, especially the formerly industrialized cities of North America;</p></li><li><p>move population to rural areas;</p></li><li><p>cull the population of the world by at least 2 billion people;</p></li><li><p>prevent reorganization of political forces who oppose COR plans;</p></li><li><p>destabilize the United States through massive layoffs and loss of jobs and class and racial wars; and,</p></li><li><p>destroy capital incentive through high interest rates and high capital gains taxes.</p></li></ul><blockquote><p>With the destruction of industry, Harmon postulated, would come the destruction of all of our basic morals, our basic beliefs in God and country, our Christian-based culture, which will lead swiftly to the return to the world of an occult theocracy of the new dark ages COR high-priest Harmon said: &#8220;. . . nineteen images of man dominate various epochs, and from each he extracts such features he believes useful for replacing the industrial technological image, programs the COR and the Committee hope to emulate and which will turn the people of the world &#8212; those that are left as mindless slaves after the culling of Global 2000 has occurred, in a New Dark Age &#8212; the so-called New World Order.&#8221; [pg.44]</p><p>Harmon, the high priest of the COR, laid out a scenario that is in direct contradiction with God&#8217;s law, which says that we must be fruitful, and multiply and subdue the Earth, not for the benefit of the COR and the Committee of 300, but for the freedom of our people in the United States and others who choose to respect their national identities.</p><p>The Luciferians served by Harmon, the members of the <a href="https://historia.uw.edu.pl/en/research-project/blood-sacrifice-and-related-rituals-in-the-cult-of-dionysus-myth-history-and-the-area-in-between/">Cult of Dionysus</a>, the &#8220;Olympians&#8221; &#8211; they say, &#8220;No, we were placed here to rule the Earth and we alone shall enjoy its benefits.&#8221; High priest Harmon concludes as follows:</p><p>&#8220;We must change the industrial technological image of man fast. Our analyses of the nature of contemporary society problems leads to the conclusion that the images of many that dominated the last two centuries will he inadequate for the post-industrial era. <strong>The image of man appropriate to that new world (not new &#8211; the concept, a Satanic one, is four thousand years old) must be sought, synthesized and then wired into mankind&#8217;s brains.&#8221; </strong>[Emphasis our own] [pg.43]</p><p><a href="https://archive.org/details/john-coleman-club-of-rome/mode/2up">Club of Rome</a>, Dr. John Coleman, pg.43 and 44</p></blockquote><p>In his video presentation at 40 minutes, he discussed that <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_McNamara">Robert Strange McNamara</a> had a conference with the world&#8217;s leading bankers and stated: &#8220;The biggest menace facing the world today is the American middle class and overpopulation.&#8221;</p><p>He further discusses the genocidal plan to get rid of the &#8220;unwashed.&#8221; What he discusses is applicable today, 50 years later:</p><blockquote><p>That is why we had the sudden appearance of AIDS. There were chemical and bacteriological warfare experiments ongoing in Sierra Leone, Africa. They used Lassa fever virus for biological warfare purposes to get rid of millions of people in the world.</p><p>They took the viruses back to the CDC. The same experiments were going on at Harvard. The Government gave millions of dollars to Fort Detrick where they did all the laboratory work on AIDS. They inserted AIDS into the small pox vaccine and vaccinated people in Africa and Brazil, hence starting the AIDS epidemic.</p><p>Lives were in jeopardy from scores of <strong>man-made viruses </strong>like HIV and Ebola Fever.</p><p><strong>The elites protect themselves with herbal compounds mixed with sugar and the protection of low frequency radiation. Using the technology developed by the virologist Gurtjev (?) who proved that every living thing has a vibratory cycle. He was able to measure the vibratory cycle of deadly viruses. By vibrating them double their cycle you would kill them instantly. That is one of the defensive weapons they got that will kill the plague if they ever get it. The same technique will kill cancer cells. The medical profession run by the Rockefellers and pharmaceutical companies did not want you to know this. </strong></p><p>(^^Minute 48 in the below video^^)</p></blockquote><p>Everyone should watch

monument. Five massive slabs of polished granite rise out of the earth in a star pattern. The rocks were each 16 feet tall, with four of them weighing more than 20 tons apiece. Together they supported a 25,000-pound capstone. Four ancient languages were engraved on the capstone, including Babylonian Cuneiform, Sanskrit, Egyptian Hieroglyphics, and Classical Greek. Engraved in eight different languages on the four giant stones that support the common capstone were ten guides, or commandments. That monument was alternately referred to as The Georgia Guidestones or the American Stonehenge. Though relatively unknown to most people, it was an important link to the Occult Hierarchy that dominates the world in which we live.</p><p>The origin of that strange monument, unveiled in March 1980, is still shrouded in mystery because no one knows the true identity of the man or men who commissioned its construction. All that is known for certain is that in June 1979, a well-dressed, articulate stranger visited the office of the Elberton Granite Finishing Company and announced that he wanted to build an edifice to transmit a message to mankind. He identified himself as R. C. Christian but it soon became apparent that was not his real name. He said that he represented a group of men who wanted to offer direction to humanity.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

There were precise notches that parallel the movement of the sun, from its solstices to its equinoxes, while its outer core marks the lunar-year cycle. There was even a stargazing hole, which located the North Star, Polaris. And lastly, during the noon hour, the sun was positioned right at the center of the capstone, a highly symbolic occult design to say the least.</p><p>A message consisting of a set of ten guidelines or principles was engraved on the Georgia Guidestones in eight different languages, one language on each face of the four large upright stones. Moving clockwise around the structure from due north, these languages were: English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, and Russian. They used to read as follows:</p><p>1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.</p><p>2. Guide reproduction wisely &#8211; improving fitness and diversity.</p><p>3. Unite humanity with a living new language.</p><p>4. Rule passion &#8211; faith &#8211; tradition &#8211; and all things with tempered reason.</p><p>5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.</p><p>6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.</p><p>7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.</p><p>8. Balance personal rights with social duties.</p><p>9. Prize truth &#8211; beauty &#8211; love &#8211; seeking harmony with the infinite.</p><p>10. Be not a cancer on the earth &#8211; Leave room for nature.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

That event and the strangely rapid removal of the guidestones (reminds me of the recent odd cleanup of the Charlie Kirk &#8220;assassination&#8221;), garnered worldwide attention &#8212; only to become quickly forgotten with the next &#8220;thing of the week&#8221;.  The theories swirl around who did it &#8212; was it an anti-NWO freedom fighter? Or did the cabal themselves take it down, because of the long past due worldwide attention it was getting? Did the NWO cockroaches scatter for shelter from the light? </p><p>We will probably never know and both theories are plausible. My personal guess would be the latter. The fact remains that for decades this pathetically evil monument stood erect, openly proclaiming the agenda of a secret group that has the audacity to believe they have the right to exterminate 95% of the global population and implement a technocratic NWO benefitting THEM. This is NOT some benign, sensible path forward for humanity. The mass na&#239;vet&#233; surrounding this is mind boggling.</p><p>These <strong>entities</strong> are willing to do anything &#8212; ANYTHING &#8212; to kill most of us. Why?

They only believe in the flesh &#8212; so they are willing to destroy God&#8217;s order in an attempt to live forever and become &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuL3wlodJC8">God&#8217;s on earth</a>&#8221;.</p><p>Behind all of that and at the top of the pyramid we find the satanists &#8212; and their God of this world, Lucifer, who laugh at their ignorance. The almighty God has other plans however and he continues to keep the door open for their repentant souls. </p><p>If humanity doesn&#8217;t wake up and realize that these evil forces and agendas DO exist &#8212; then we will carry on unable to see it, and it will succeed without opposition. Many will say the scriptures prove it must come to pass and therefore we can just sit idle and prepare for Christ &#8212; I don&#8217;t personally agree with that approach. That is, my path and purpose are to bring these agendas to light and fight with everything I&#8217;ve got to expose this &#8220;den of robbers&#8221;.  </p><div

It is the story of how <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-round-table">different groups</a></strong> of atheistic-materialistic to satanic men have played in an international chess tournament &#8212; to decide which group would win ultimate control of the wealth, natural resources, and man-power of the entire world. It is explained how the game has reached the final stage. The lnternational Communists, and the International Capitalists, (both of whom have totalitarian ambitions) have temporarily joined hands to defeat Christian-democracy.</p><p>The cover design shows that all moves made by the International Conspirators are directed by Satan and while the situation is decidedly serious it is definitely not hopeless. The solution is to end the game the International Conspirators have been playing &#8212; before one or another <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-round-table">totalitarian-minded groups</a></strong> impose their ideas on the rest of mankind. The story is sensational and shocking, but it is educational because it is the TRUTH. The author offers practical solutions to problems so many people consider insoluble. Here are excerpts from the introduction of this book.</p><div><hr></div><p><em><strong>by</strong></em><strong> William Guy Carr</strong></p><h3>A Luciferian conspiracy</h3><p>If what I reveal surprises and shocks the reader, please don&#8217;t develop an inferiority complex because I am frank to admit that although I have worked since 1911 trying to find out why the human race can&#8217;t live in peace and enjoy the bounties and blessing God provides for our use and benefit in such abundance, it was 1950 before I penetrated the secret that the wars and revolutions which scourge our lives, and the chaotic conditions that prevail, are nothing more or less than the effects of the continuing Luciferian conspiracy.</p><p><strong>It started in that part of the universe we call heaven when Lucifer challenged the right of God to exercise supreme authority. The Holy Scriptures tell us how the Luciferian conspiracy was transferred to this world in the Garden of Eden. Until I realized that our struggle is not with flesh and blood, but with the spiritual forces of darkness who control all those in high places on this earth (Eph. 6:12) the pieces of evidence gathered all over this world just didn&#8217;t fit together and make sense. (I am not ashamed to admit that the &#8220;Bible&#8221; provided the &#8220;Key&#8221; which enabled me to obtain an answer to the question quoted above.)</strong></p><p>Very few people seem able to appreciate that Lucifer is the brightest and most intelligent of the heavenly host and, because he is a pure spirit, he is indestructible. The scriptures tell us his power is such that he caused one-third of the most intelligent of the heavenly host to defect from God, and join him, because he claimed God&#8217;s Plan for the rule of the universe is weak and impractical because it is based on the premise that lesser beings can be taught to know, love, and wish to serve him voluntarily out of respect for his own infinite perfections. The Luciferian ideology states might is right. It claims beings of proven superior intelligence have the right to rule those less gifted because the masses don&#8217;t know what is best for them. The Luciferian ideology is what we call totalitarianism today.</p><p>The Old Testament is simply the history of how Satan became prince of the world, and caused our first parents to defect from God. It relates how the synagogue of Satan was established on this earth, it tells how it has worked since to prevent God&#8217;s Plan for the rule of the universe being established on this earth. Christ came to earth when the conspiracy reached the stage that, to use his own words, Satan controlled all those in high places. Christ exposed the synagogue of Satan (Rev. 2:9; 3:9); he denounced those who belonged to it as sons of the devil (Lucifer), whom he castigated as the father of lies (John 8:44) and the prince of deceit (2 Cor. 11:14)&#8230; Christ gave us the solution to our problem when he told us we must go forth and teach the truth, regarding this conspiracy (John 8. 31:59), to all people of all nations. He promised that if we did this, knowledge of the truth would set us free (Matt. 28:19). The Luciferian Conspiracy has developed until it is in its semi-final stage (Matt. 24: 15:34), simply because we have failed to put the mandate Christ gave us into effect.</p><h3>Weishaupt and the Illuminati</h3><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg" width="150" height="209" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:209,&quot;width&quot;:150,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Adam Weishaupt&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Adam Weishaupt&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Adam Weishaupt" title="Adam Weishaupt" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!8er-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5dcfc582-484e-4d6f-bed3-f02d8f1a840c_150x209.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Adam Weishaupt</strong></p><p>In 1784 an &#8220;Act of God&#8221; placed the Bavarian government in possession of evidence which proved the existence of the continuing Luciferian Conspiracy. Adam Weishaupt, a Jesuit-trained professor of canon law, defected from Christianity, and embraced the Luciferian ideology while teaching in Ingoldstadt University. In 1770 the money lenders (who had recently organized the House of Rothschild), retained him to revise and modernize the age-old &#8216;protocols&#8217; designed to give the Synagogue of Satan ultimate world domination so they can impose the Luciferian ideology upon what remains of the Human Race, after the final social cataclysm, by use of satanic despotism. Weishaupt completed his task May 1st, 1776.</p><p><strong>The plan required the destruction of ALL existing governments and religions. This objective was to be reached by dividing the masses into opposing camps in ever increasing numbers on political, racial, social, economic and other issues. The opposing sides were then to be armed and an &#8216;incident&#8217; provided which would cause them to fight and weaken themselves as they destroyed national governments and religious institutions.</strong></p><p>In 1776, Weishaupt organized the Illuminati to put the plot into execution. The word Illuminati is derived from Lucifer, and means &#8216;holders of the light&#8217;. Using the lie that his objective was to bring about a one world government to enable men with proven mental ability to govern the world, he ended up recruiting about two thousand followers. These included the most intelligent men in the field of arts and letters, education, the sciences, finance and industry. He then established the Lodges of the Grand Orient to be their secret headquarters. Because Britain and France were the two greatest powers at the end of the 18th Century, Weishaupt ordered the Illuminati to foment the Colonial Wars to weaken the British Empire and organize the Great Revolution to weaken the French Empire. The latter he scheduled should start in 1789.</p><h3>The conspiracy is discovered</h3><p>A German author named Zwack put Weishaupt&#8217;s revised version of the age-old conspiracy into book form and named it &#8220;Einige Original-Scripten.&#8221; In 1784 a copy of this document was sent to the Illuminists that Weishaupt had delegated to foment the French revolution. The courier was struck dead by lightning as he rode through Ratisbon on his way from Frankfurt to Paris. The police found the subversive documents on his body and turned them over to the proper government authorities.</p><p>After careful study of the plot, the Bavarian Government ordered the police to raid Weishaupt&#8217;s newly organized lodges of the Grand Orient and the homes of some of his most influential associates. Additional evidence thus obtained, convinced the authorities the documents were a genuine copy of a conspiracy by which the synagogue of Satan, who controlled the Illuminati at the top, planned to use wars and revolutions to bring about the establishment of a One World Government, the powers of which they intended to usurp as soon as it was established.</p><p>In 1785, the Bavarian Government outlawed the Illuminati and closed the lodges of the Grand Orient. In 1786, they published the details of the conspiracy. The English title is &#8220;The Original Writings of the Order and Sect of The Illuminati&#8221;. Copies of the conspiracy were sent to the heads of church and state. The power of the Illuminati was so great that this warning was ignored, as were the warnings Christ had given the world.</p><p>The Illuminati went underground. Weishaupt instructed his Illuminists to infiltrate into the lodges of Blue Masonry and form a secret society within secret societies.</p><p>Only masons who proved themselves Internationalists, and those whose conduct proved they had defected from God, are initiated into the Illuminati. Thus the conspirators used the cloak of philanthropy to hide their revolutionary and subversive activities. In order to infiltrate into masonic lodges in Britain, Illuminists invited John Robison over to Europe. He was a high degree mason in the Scottish Rite : Professor of natural philosophy at Edinburgh University; and Secretary of The Royal Society of Edinburgh. John Robison did not fall for the lie that the objective of the one worlder&#8217;s was to form a benevolent dictatorship. He kept his reactions to himself however, and was entrusted with a copy of Weishaupt&#8217;s Revised Conspiracy for study and safe keeping.</p><p>Because the heads of church and state in France were advised to ignore the warnings, the revolution broke out in 1789. In order to alert other governments to their danger, John Robison published a book in 1798, entitled &#8220;Proof of a Conspiracy to Destroy All Governments and Religions&#8221;. But his warnings have been ignored, as were all the others.</p><h3>The creation of Communism</h3><p>In 1829, the Illuminati held a meeting in New York which was addressed by a British Illuminist named Wright. Those in attendance were informed that the Illuminati intended to unite the Nihilist and Atheist groups with all other subversive organizations into an international organization to be known as Communism. This destructive force was to be used to enable the Illuminati to foment future wars and revolutions. Clinton Roosevelt (a direct ancestor of F.D.R.) Horace Greeley, and Chas. Dana were appointed a committee to raise funds for this new venture. The fund they raised financed Karl Marx and Engels when they wrote &#8220;Das Capital&#8221; and &#8220;The Communist Manifesto&#8221; in Soho, England.</p><p>In 1830, Weishaupt died. He carried the deception that the Illuminati was dead to his own death-bed where, to convince his spiritual advisers, he pretended to repent and rejoin the Church.</p><p>According to Weishaupt&#8217;s revised version of the Age-Old conspiracy &#8212; <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-round-table">the Illuminati were to organize, finance, direct and control ALL international organizations and groups</a></strong> by working their agentur into executive positions at the top. Thus it was that while Karl Marx was writing the Communist Manifesto under the direction of a group of Illuminists, Professor Karl Ritter of Frankfurt University was writing the antithesis under direction of yet another group, so that those who direct the conspiracy at the top could use the differences in these two ideologies to start dividing larger and larger numbers of the human race into opposing camps so they could be armed and then made to fight and destroy each other, together with their political and religious institutions.</p><p>The work Ritter started was continued by the German so-called philosopher Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900) who founded Nietzscheism. Nietzscheism was developed into Fascism and later into Naziism and used to enable the agentur of the Illuminati to foment World Wars One and Two.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg" width="256" height="226.98666666666668" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:133,&quot;width&quot;:150,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:256,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Gussepi Mazzini&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Gussepi Mazzini&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Gussepi Mazzini" title="Gussepi Mazzini" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!UNVy!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9ec7a274-0e79-42b0-95f0-69a244c203af_150x133.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>In 1834, the Italian revolutionary leader Gussepi Mazzini <em>(see picture)</em> was selected by the Illuminati to be director of their revolutionary program throughout the world. He held this post until he died in 1872.</p><p>In 1840, General Albert Pike was brought under the influence of Mazzini because he became a disgruntled officer when U.S. President Jefferson Davis disbanded his auxiliary Indian troops on the grounds they had committed atrocities under the cloak of legitimate warfare. Pike accepted the idea of a one world government and ultimately became head of the Luciferian Priesthood. Between 1859, and 1871, he worked out the details of a military blue-print, for three world wars, and three major revolutions which he considered would further the conspiracy to its final stage during the twentieth century.</p><h3>The plan for three world wars</h3><p>Most of his work was done in the 13 room mansion, he built in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1840. When the Illuminati, and the lodges of the Grand Orient, became suspect, because of Mazzini&#8217;s revolutionary activities in Europe, Pike organized the New and Reformed Palladian Rite. He established three supreme councils; one in Charleston, S.C., another in Rome, Italy and another in Berlin, Germany. He had Mazzini establish twenty three subordinate councils in strategic locations throughout the world. These have been the secret headquarters of the world revolutionary movement ever since. Long before Marconi invented wireless (radio), the scientists who were of the Illuminati had made it possible for Pike and the Heads of his councils to communicate secretly. It was the discovery of this secret that enabled intelligence officers to understand how apparently unrelated &#8216;incidents&#8217; took place simultaneously throughout the world which aggravated a situation and developed into a war or revolution.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg" width="400" height="456" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/bd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:456,&quot;width&quot;:400,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot; Albert Pike&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot; Albert Pike&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt=" Albert Pike" title=" Albert Pike" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uX9z!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd9c3ac8-121d-4d49-a530-d450067b28fe_400x456.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Albert Pike</strong></p><p>Pike&#8217;s plan was as simple as it has proved effective. He required that Communism, Naziism, Political Zionism, and other International movements be organized and used to foment the three global wars and three major revolutions. The first world war was to be fought so as to enable the Illuminati to overthrow the powers of the Tzars in Russia and turn that country into the stronghold of Atheistic-Communism. The differences stirred up by agentur of the Illuminati between the British and German Empires were to be used to foment this war. After the war ended, Communism was to be built up and used to destroy other governments and weaken religions.</p><p>World War Two was to be fomented by using the differences between Fascists and Political Zionists. This war was to be fought so that Naziism would be destroyed and the power of Political Zionism increased so that the sovereign state of Israel could be established in Palestine. During world war II, International Communism was to be built up until it equaled in strength to that of united Christendom. At this point it was to be contained and kept in check until required for the final social cataclysm. Can any informed person deny Roosevelt and Churchill did not put this policy into effect?</p><p><strong>&#8220;World War Three is to be fomented by using the differences the agentur of the Illuminati stir up between Political Zionists and the leaders of the Muslim world. The war is to be directed in such a manner that Islam (the Arab World including Mohammedanism) and Political Zionism (including the State of Israel) will destroy themselves while at the same time the remaining nations, once more divided against each other on this issue, will be forced to fight themselves into a state of complete exhaustion physically, mentally, spiritually and economically.&#8221;</strong></p><p><strong>Can any unbiased and reasoning person deny that the intrigue now going on in the Near, Middle, and Far East isn&#8217;t designed to accomplish this very devilish purpose?</strong></p><p>On August 15, 1871, Pike told Mazzini that after World War III is ended, those who aspire to undisputed world domination will provoke the greatest social cataclysm the world has ever known. We quote his own written words (taken from the letter catalogued in the British Museum Library, London, England):</p><p>&#8220;We shall unleash the Nihilists and Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will be from that moment without compass (direction), anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer brought finally out in the public view, a manifestation which will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.&#8221;</p><p>When Mazzini died in 1872, Pike made another Italian revolutionary leader, named Adriano Lemmi, his successor. Lemmi was later succeeded by Lenin and Trotsky. The revolutionary activities of all these men were financed by British, French, German, and American international bankers. The reader must remember that the International Bankers of today, like the Money-Changers of Christ&#8217;s day, are only tools or agents of the Illuminati.</p><h3>Bankers finance wars and revolutions</h3><p>While the general public has been lead to believe that Communism is a movement of the workers (soviets) to destroy Capitalism, <em>Pawns In The Game</em> proves that both British and American Intelligence Officers obtained authentic documentary evidence which proved that internationalist capitalists operating through their international banking houses had financed both sides in every war and revolution fought since 1776.</p><p>There is plenty of documentary evidence to prove that Pike, like Weishaupt, was head of the Luciferian Priesthood in his day. In addition to the letter he wrote Mazzini in 1871, another he wrote to the heads of his Palladian Councils July 14th, 1889 fell into hands other than intended. It was written to explain the Luciferian dogma, concerning worship of Satan and worship of Lucifer. In it, he said in part :</p><p><strong>&#8220;That which we say to the crowd is &#8216;we worship God&#8217;. But it is the God that one worships without superstition. The religion should be, by all us initiates of the high degrees, maintained in the purity of the Luciferian doctrine... Yes! Lucifer is God. And unfortunately Adonay (the name given by Luciferians to the God we worship) is God also... for the absolute can only exist as two gods. Thus, the doctrine of Satanism is a heresy: and the true, and pure philosophical religion is the belief in Lucifer, the equal of Adonay: but Lucifer, God of Light, and God of Good, is struggling for humanity against Adonay the God of Darkness and Evil.&#8221;</strong></p><p>Propaganda put out by those who direct the Luciferian conspiracy has caused the general public to believe all who oppose Christianity are atheists. This is a deliberate lie circulated to hide the secret plans of the High Priests of the Luciferian Creed &#8212; who direct the Synagogue of Satan &#8212; so that the human race still find it impossible to establish on this earth God&#8217;s plan for the rule of the universe, as explained to our first parents in the Garden of Eden, told in Genesis. The High Priests of the Luciferian Creed work from the darkness. They remain behind the scenes. They keep their identify and true purpose secret, even from the vast majority of those they deceive into doing their will and furthering their secret plans and ambitions.</p><p>In 1925, his Eminence Cardinal Caro y Rodriguez, Archbishop of Santiago, Chile, published a book <em>&#8220;The Mystery of Freemasonry Unveiled&#8221;</em>, to expose how the Illuminati, the Satanists, and the Luciferians had imposed a secret society upon a secret society. He produces a great deal of documentary evidence to prove that not even 32nd and 33rd degree Masons know what goes on in the Lodges of the Grand Orient and Pike&#8217;s New and Reformed Palladian Rite and the affiliated Lodges of Adoption in which female members of the conspiracy are initiated. On page 108, he quotes the authority of Margiotta to prove that before Pike selected Lemmi to succeed Mazzini as Director of the World Revolutionary Movement, Lemmi was a rabid and confirmed Satanist. But after he had been selected, he was initiated into the Luciferian ideology.</p><h3>Satan&#8217;s goal: the ruin of souls</h3><p>Learned theologians have stated that Lucifer, Satan, or simply &#8220;The Devil&#8221;, <em>knows</em> he did wrong and knows that he was wrong. He is a pure spirit and therefore indestructible. Knowing he is wrong, he still is determined to drag as many souls as possible into hell with him to share his misery. This being a fact then our duty is clear: We have to make known the TRUTH of this to as many others as quickly as possible, so they have the chance to avoid the snares and pit-falls set by those who serve the devil&#8217;s purpose and seek the ruin of souls. Weishaupt&#8217;s plot requires :</p><ol><li><p><strong>Abolition of ALL ordered national governments.</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Abolition of inheritance</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Abolition of private property.</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Abolition of patriotism.</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Abolition of the individual home and family life as the cell from which all civilizations have stemmed.</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>Abolition of ALL religions established and existing so that the Luciferian ideology of totalitarianism may be imposed on mankind.</strong></p></li></ol><p>The headquarters of the conspiracy in the late 1700s was in Frankfurt, Germany. After the Bavarian Government&#8217;s exposure in 1786, the High Priests of the Luciferian Creed established their headquarters in Switzerland; since World War II, the headquarters have been in the Harold Pratt Building in New York. The Rockefellers have replaced the Rothschilds as far as the manipulation of finances is concerned.</p><p>It is our duty to make the people acquainted with the truth. Our purpose should be to put God back into our households and politics, so we may establish government in accordance with His Plan for the rule of the universe as explained by God&#8217;s only Son Jesus Christ. Only then will His will be done here as it is in heaven. In my humble opinion, not until this is done will God intervene on our behalf and the words of The Lord&#8217;s Prayer be accomplished.</p><p><em><strong>William Guy Carr</strong></em></p><p></p><div><hr></div><h3>IMPORTANT SUPPLEMENTARY ARTICLES:</h3><div><hr></div><h3>CLICK: <a href="https://substack.com/@thedonotcomplyguy/posts">Do Not Comply Guy Archive:</a></h3><div><hr></div><div class="digest-post-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;nodeId&quot;:&quot;53f3d019-dd56-4f19-8b25-2590b187d3f4&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;cta&quot;:&quot;Read full story&quot;,&quot;showBylines&quot;:true,&quot;showDescription&quot;:true,&quot;showImage&quot;:true,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;lg&quot;,&quot;isEditorNode&quot;:true,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;ARE ALL WARS BANKER'S WARS?&quot;,&quot;publishedBylines&quot;:[{&quot;id&quot;:34452369,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;The Do Not Comply Guy&quot;,&quot;bio&quot;:&quot;Evil \&quot;globalists\&quot; (\&quot;nobility\&quot; bloodlines and their masonic cabal that secretly control the world) are depopulating &amp; building a techno-fascist NWO (4IR/Great Reset).

I&#8217;ve covered all of that extensively already.</p><p>This is sharing an article that was first <strong>published in 1939</strong>. Yes, we&#8217;ve learned a lot since then and realize there are <strong><a href="https://donotcomplyguy.substack.com/p/the-round-table">deeper players, groups</a></strong>, and <strong><a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/donotcomplyguy/p/are-all-wars-bankers-wars?r=kifm9&amp;utm_campaign=post&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;showWelcomeOnShare=false">agendas</a></strong> involved. The point is, much of the parasitic criminality humanity is dealing with has been known for longer than most of us have been alive and yet, here we are &#8212; seemingly mere steps away from global genocide and NWO slavery.</p><p>Anyhow, with that said, much of the information found within this article is borrowed from Gertrude Coogan&#8217;s book, &#8220;Money Creators,&#8221; <strong>published in 1935</strong>.

But it is legalized robbery, that is to say, banks act within the &#8220;legal&#8221; limits of their charter, while running a racket for the benefit of a small clique of individuals who thrive on the people&#8217;s backs. This charter is a license to bleed and to kill granted by sovereign governments.</p><p>From the Renaissance on, parasites can be found who dealt in loans and who, through usury, would lay their hands on the money being circulated in the countries where they had set up shop. The safekeepers of gold quickly learned to take advantage of the credulity of an ignorant people and to lend them what they did not have to begin with. Gold remained in the goldsmiths&#8217; vaults; the receipts of the individuals who entrusted their gold to the bankers and the bankers&#8217; promissory notes circulated alongside gold itself, and brought in the same profits.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

interest to the sovereign government as well as to individuals. That year, King William III of England needed money to wage war. Since the revolution of 1688, there existed in London, a company of rich men who called themselves the &#8220;Company of the Bank of England&#8221;.</p><p>We quote the following from The Breakdown of Money, by Christopher Hollis:</p><p>&#8220;In 1694 the Government of William III was in sore straits for money. A company of rich men under the leadership of one William Paterson offered to lend William &#163;1,200,000 at 8 percent interest on the condition that the Governor and Company of the Bank of England, as they called themselves, should have the right to issue notes to the full extent of its capital.&#8221;</p><p>That is to say, the Bank obtained the right to collect &#163;1,200,000 in gold and silver and to turn it into &#163;2,400,000, lending &#163;1,200,000, the gold and silver, to the Government, while using the other &#163;1,200,000, i.e. the bank-notes, to lend them to commerce and industry at a profit to themselves.</p><p>Paterson understood fully the important privilege that was bestowed upon them. The owners of the Bank could circulate their own funds of twelve hundred thousand pounds without having more than two or three hundred thousand pounds in reserve. It was as though the Bank had lent &#163;900 000 or &#163;1 200 000 pounds to the nation. In practice they did not need to keep a 25% cash reserve. By 1696, they had &#163;1,750,000 worth of notes in circulation against a cash reserve of &#163;36,000, a cash reserve that barely exceeded 2%.</p><h3>The House of Rothschild</h3><p>Thus, a private bank became more powerful than the king. From the beginning of this takeover of public affairs by a group of exploiters, we find this new monetary machine being used primarily to finance wars; it is at such times that are laid the bases for huge everlasting profits. This machine had lost none of its adaptability in 1914: not a single government ran out of money to drive its citizens to the great bloodshed that took place in World War I. The phrase &#8220;No money&#8221;, often repeated today, was not heard once from 1914 to 1918.</p><p>International Finance, the mother of all banks, strengthened its hold each time it generously placed its fertile pen at the service of governments who became the signatories of obligations. Through progress, money has dematerialized and it no longer needs to be printed.</p><p>The international House of Rothschild is a fine example of a fortune built upon human massacres. In her book, Money Creators, Gerture Coogan explains: &#8220;Meyer Amschel Rothschild entered the scene. His family of five sons and five daughters had taken the name of Rothschild from the Red Shield which hung in front of Meyer&#8217; s shop in Frankfort-on-the-Main in Germany as his trade-mark. Meyer conceived the idea of enlisting young men as mercenary troops, painting to them the glories of military service, etc.</p><p>&#8220;When King George III of England was unable to secure British soldiers to fight their cousins across the Atlantic, he went to the Landgrave of Hesse Cassel, at Hanau, near Frankfort. George III paid $20,000,000 to the Landgrave for some 16,800 Hessian mercenaries ($1,200 per head) who had been organized and trained by Meyer Amschel. The Landgrave loaned this $20,000,000 to Meyer Amschel at a very low rate of interest for ten years.</p><p>&#8220;It is well known that the foreign borrowing of funds for the American Revolution was accomplished through the efforts of Robert Morris. It is not so well known that Morris secured his funds from Haym Solamon. Those who know anything of international banker solidarity will appreciate immediately that Meyer Amschel loaned the money to Solamon, which was in turn loaned through Robert Morris to the American Colonies. Thus, George III paid for the American Revolution and the international financiers played both ends against the middle; no matter who lost, they won, and lives were sacrificed on both sides.&#8221;</p><p>Meyer Anselm Rothschild raised his five sons to continue this successful business. The ablest of them, Nathan, moved to London, where he established the bank and brokerage house N.M. Rothschild and Sons; James moved to Paris, Solomon to Vienna, during the French Revolution. Napoleon&#8217;s wars were timely. England borrowed from Nathan Rothschild to fight Napoleon. Napoleon borrowed from James Rothschild and his associates to fight England. Soldiers fell, wives and mothers cried, conflicts intensified while the Rothschilds profited...</p><p>Nathan, who was a true financial genius, won six million dollars in a single day, two days after the famous battle of Waterloo which led to the downfall of Napoleon. Nathan also intervened in Spain, in 1835, in retaliation against a government that refused to do his will eventhough he had paid off Spain&#8217;s Minister of Finance. Nathan and his brother in Paris spent nine million dollars to ruin the Spanish Securities, triggering a global crisis that ruined thousands of bond holders, while the Rothschilds grew richer on the ruins. In Vienna, his brother wrote a confident: &#8220;Tell Prince Metternich that the House of Rothschild acted thus, through vengeance.&#8221;</p><h3>Defrauding France</h3><p>The same technique continues to be used by international bankers today to rob their victims. Austria was dismembered after the Great War and the Rothschild brother of Vienna was left in poor financial shape. But not for long. Eight years later, when French President Poincar&#233; prepared a law to stabilize the franc, in collaboration with the Bank of France, James &#8212; the Rothschild of Paris, director of the Bank of France (a private bank), was able to warn his cousin in Vienna. The latter hastened to buy francs, then on a downward trend, and sell them once their value had increased following the adoption of the Bill by the French parliament. In less than a week he had rebuilt his entire fortune... on the backs of the French people!</p><p>International finance knows no homeland. It is involved in all things, it is everywhere, it extends its tentacles to all countries. It causes countless ruins and answers to no one. In 1931, Pope Pius XI mentions &#8220;a no less deadly and accursed internationalism of finance or international imperialism whose country is where profit is.&#8221; (Quadragessimo Anno, no 109)</p><p>American colonists revolted against England in 1776 because of the London financiers&#8217; greed that took away from the colonies the right to make their own currencies, leaving them at the mercy of the exploiters in London. This explains why the Founding Fathers were careful to state clearly in the Constitution that &#8220;Congress alone shall have the power to coin money, and regulate the value thereof.&#8221; (Article I, Section 8, Par. 5). The American people won the war of independance against England. Their constitution remains. But the U.S. Congress neither creates nor issues the country&#8217;s money. Nor does it regulate its value.</p><p>How can this be? Even though the English government lost its war, the international financiers won theirs and continued exploiting America as though it were a colony of international finance. America was not a prey to let go of since it already showed the signs of a continent that was destined to great wealth.</p><h3>Alexander Hamilton</h3><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

intermediaries who are given a polished reputation owing to the influence they exert on the media. At the origin of the American Republic, stood the man of the hour: Alexander Hamilton.</p><p>Hamilton was born in the West Indies. From a very young age, he was fascinated by anything that had to do with figures, finance and money. At the age of 13, he went to work for Henry Cruger, the largest merchant in the Caribbean. At the age of 17, he left for New York, where he lived until his death in a duel against his business and political rival, Aaron Burr, in 1804.</p><p>Hamilton took part in the War of Independence and was for some time secretary to the General in chief, George Washington. In his spare time, he would study at length, currency, the minting of money, and the topics of gold, silver and international monetary trade. He adhered to a philosophy whereby mankind must be subjected to a handful of individuals. He championed the idea of a system where a privately-owned central bank would be endowed with sovereign privileges, as was the case with the Bank of England.</p><p>During the war of independence, the colonies in revolt issued their own debt-free currency. The European financiers, who then ruled over the creation and lending of debt-money, could not tolerate such an affront. They caused the value of the U.S. currency to fall by flooding the colonies with counterfeit bills. This power, held in private hands, struck Hamilton and encouraged him to pursue his studies and his research; he wanted to know how individuals could possibly exercise such power, not for the purpose of defeating them, but so as to imitate them.</p><p>His belief in a central bank that would, in colaboration with financial powers, control a nation&#8217;s money, increased as he became aware of how easy it would be to put it over an uninformed public.</p><p>During the war, Hamilton began to plan the implementation of this same inequity to America. On April 30, 1781, twenty-year-old Hamilton, who had gained ascendancy over Robert Morris, the Secretary of the Treasury for President Washington dared write to Morris: &#8220;A national debt, if it is not excessive, will be a national blessing; a powerful cement of union; a necessity for keeping up taxation, and a spur to industry.&#8221;</p><h3>America handed over to the financiers</h3><p>1789: The American Constitution is adopted and the first President, George Washington, forms his first cabinet. He offers the Treasury to Morris. Much to his surprise, Morris refuses and recommends Hamilton. Washington then commits the biggest mistake of his administration, one that will compromise all of his work. Hamilton becomes the first secretary of the U.S. Treasury (Minister of Finance).</p><p>Benjamin Franklin dies in 1790. Hamilton is now free to implement the plan he has been dreaming of. But he must bypass the U.S. Constitution which clearly states that Congress alone has the authority to coin and to issue money. Franklin is gone, but Jefferson remains and no doubt watches over the great work in which he took such a large part.</p><p>The debt of the United States was contracted mainly for war. It totaled $ 75 million at the time, which was owed partly to foreign interests and partly to American individuals who had purchased bonds that the Rothschilds of Frankfort had issued, as explained above. Money was needed for the new nation to carry out its business. The United States were a sovereign state. Would it not have been wiser to issue the currency it needed, in metal or paper form, and to put it into circulation? Hamilton thought otherwise. He insisted that the debt be converted into interest-bearing bonds. Rather than creating debt-free currency and placing it into circulation (an average of $19 per capita), he chose to create a national debt that amounted to $ 19 per person.</p><p>As Secretary of the Treasury, Hamilton was held to secrecy. This did not keep him from reaching out to the more influential members of Congress, to invite them to take part in his scheme. Knowing that the government&#8217;s certificates would be transformed into interest-bearing bonds guaranteed by the State, many congressmen hastened to buy as many certificates as they could, at the lowest price possible, from their constituents, before they were to be turned into bonds. Under the influence of corruption, the leading congressmen were led to agree to the consolidation of the debt as presented by Hamilton.</p><p>Jefferson resisted and denounced the &#8220;prostitution of laws which constitute the pillars of our whole system of jurisprudence.&#8221; The farming class gave Jefferson its support. But communications were slow at the time, and Hamilton&#8217;s debt-based philosophy was imposed upon the young nation.</p><p>There remained to establish a private central bank, to create and to lend money, the way the Bank of England did. Hamilton undertook this, in 1871. He encountered little opposition from the Senate that housed the representatives of the financial powers, the same way as our Canadian Senate does today. But he had to face Jefferson, Madison, Adams and others. Over time, he acquired the art to fool and to stall. He dressed his arguments with virtue: &#8220;The emitting of paper money by the authority of government is wisely prohibited to the individual states by the national constitution; and the spirit of that prohibition ought not to be disregarded by the government of the United States. The wisdom of the government will be shown in never trusting itself with the use of so dangerous and seductive an expedient.&#8221;</p><p>Hamilton would rather see this &#8220;dangerous and seductive expedient&#8221; placed in the hands of a small group of individuals who would have every privilege but none of the responsibilty that accrues from an electoral mandate. The Constitution is written with precision, but Hamilton, through his cunning and skill, invents and stresses the idea that the Constitution implies other nonexpressed powers.</p><p>When Congress took a vote on the private central bank issue, Georges Washington asked Madison to prepare a veto. But he would eventually give in to Hamilton&#8217;s persuasive eloquence. The &#171;financial expert&#187; had won. The New York Chamber of Commerce gave Hamilton a special reception to celebrate the victory of finance over the nation.</p><h3>Abraham Lincoln, a honest man</h3><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg" width="443" height="562.652733118971" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:395,&quot;width&quot;:311,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:443,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Abraham Lincoln&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Abraham Lincoln&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Abraham Lincoln" title="Abraham Lincoln" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!IjXr!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5b668439-461c-4ea1-8693-73cc7c837f06_311x395.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>International finance took possession of America as it had Europe. It worked to ensure that its position be maintained and consolidated. A man stood up, one day, who dared to deal it a remarkable blow. His name was Abraham Lincoln, the greatest of all American presidents. It costed him his life...</p><p>A farmer&#8217;s son who never had the opportunity to attend school, after having learned to read on his mother&#8217;s knees and having studied law at night after his day&#8217;s work in the woods or on the farm, Lincoln came to the Presidency of the United States at a critical time, the Secession of the South from the Union over the issue of slavery.</p><p>Gifted with a robust common sense and guided by perfect righteousness, Lincoln thought that if private banks can create money and have it accepted by the public, only in the form of debt, the sovereign government can just as well create it and confer upon it the same legality. He therefore asked his Secretary of the Treasury, Salmon P. Chase, to make three successive issues of government notes, for a total of $ 450 million, in 1862 and 1863.</p><p>These notes were called greenbacks. Let us note that after a legal battle between the financial powers and the government, $346 million have remained in circulation and are just as legal as any bank note. But better still, unlike the banks&#8217; debt money, the greenbacks did not add a single dollar to the public debt of the United States. If this money had been issued through the ordinary channel of commercial banks, it would have meant adding an extra ten billion dollars to the US public debt, from 1863 to 1938 (through compound interests).</p><p>If all U.S. money was issued by government, the United States would have no public debt. The same can be said of all countries. The existence of public debts indicates that the present financial system is flawed, that money is tainted from its inception.</p><p>The international bankers fully understood the impact of Lincoln&#8217;s actions as shown by the following text published in the March, 1863 issue of the London Times:</p><p>&#8220;If that mischievous financial policy, which had its origin in the North American Republic during the late war in that country, should become indurated down to a fixture, then that Government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off its debts and be without a debt. It will have all the money necessary to carry on its commerce. It will become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of the civilized governments of the world. The brains and the wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe.&#8221;</p><p>And the advice was followed. A conspiracy was hatched by ternational finance: The bullet of a feeble minded brought down the great emancipator. Let us be reminded, by the testimony given by the opressors of mankind, that the prosperity of countries will stem from from a policy whereby each government would issue, free of debt, all of the money the people need to carry out their business.</p><p>&#8220;The death of Lincoln was a disaster for Christendom, wrote German leader Bismarck. There was no man in the United States great enough to wear his boots. The money lenders went on to grab the riches of the world. I fear that foreign bankers with their craftiness and tortuous tricks will entirely control the exuberant riches of America, and use it to systematically corrupt modem civilization. They will not hesitate to plunge the whole of Christendom into wars and chaos in order that the earth should become their inheritance.&#8221;</p><p>For a long time, gold and silver were both used for coinage. In 1818, England demonetized silver. Since it had the control of gold, but other countries had silver mines, its financiers did all they could to demonetize silver everywhere and establish gold as the only standard. In 1873, they set their aim on American currency. We are often told that gold is, by tradition, the only real currency. From 1789 to 1873 the two metals enjoyed the same prestige in the United States. The gold standard was only established in 1900. (Ed. Note: It was later abolished by President Nixon in 1971.)</p><h3>Ernest Seyd, an agent of High Finance</h3><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg" width="374" height="493.36170212765956" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/a5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:248,&quot;width&quot;:188,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:374,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Ernest Seyd&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Ernest Seyd&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Ernest Seyd" title="Ernest Seyd" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TKET!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5f2c932-b889-4b4c-a06d-9903e0b56480_188x248.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Let us now introduce another figure, one who did not fall under the bullet of an assassin. He was the kind of lackey whom the London financial circles delegate to our continent under the guise of financial expertise, each time some chains are to be forged.</p><p>Ernest Seyd was the agent of international finance in getting the United States to pass a law to demonetize silver thus placing America further under the rule of the world financial powers. Seyd was an advisor to the Bank of England, or so he said. Let him relate what he succeeded in doing in 1873:</p><p>&#8220;I went to America in the winter of 1872-73, authorized to secure, if I could, a bill demonetizing silver. It was to the interest of those I represented &#8212; the governors of the Bank of England &#8212; to have it done. I took with me &#163;100,000 sterling, with instructions that if it was not sufficient to accomplish the object to draw for another &#163;100,000, or as much more as was necessary. German bankers were also interested in having the bill passed. I saw the committee of the House and Senate and paid the money and stayed in America until I knew the measure was safe.&#8221;</p><p>The law was signed by President Grant in the early part of 1873. He would admit, eight months later, that he did not understand the text he had signed into law. Several Congressmen would later write similar statements confessing the same ignorance. Seyd knew better and, a year later, he told Senator Luckenbach:</p><p>&#8220;Your people will not now comprehend the far-reaching extent of that measure &#8212; but they will in after years.&#8221;</p><p>The Congressional Record of April 1873 described Seyd as a benefactor: &#8220;Emest Seyd, of London, a distinguished writer and bullionist, who is now here, has given great attention to the subject of mint and coinage. After having examined the first draft of the bill, he made sensible suggestions which the Committee adopted and embodied in the bill.&#8221;</p><h3>Depression trigerred by the bankers</h3><p>The results were not long in coming. A crisis followed: the panic of 1873, upon which Senator Ferry of Maryland commented: &#8220;Millions of people were reduced from good circumstances to penury, or covered with debt, beneath which burden their backs must bend until it is unloaded at the grave, where an innocent posterity must take it up and bear it on.&#8221;</p><p>The victims of the crisis were no doubt told that this was punishment for their sins or for their transgressions. Ernest Seyd could have provided them with a better explanation.</p><p>Among the many bankers who have come and gone, let us mention Paul Warburg, an international financier from London who took part in writing the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, for the establishment of a system of central banks in America, in line with international banking interests.</p><p>Financiers at higher levels do not rest. Before the &#8220;growling&#8221; revolt of a world awakening to reality, they make every effort to uphold their monopoly. At the meeting of the American Bankers Association in Boston, in October 1937, they took care to emphasize the importance of shaping the youth through lessons or lectures discretely supplied by Iocal bankers; through school competitions sponsored and judged by them, etc. For the adult population, the media is to be monitored, articles written by bankers and their publicists are to be inserted, articles that could underwrite the prestige of the banks must be removed, using the influence banks have over advertisers, if need be. In economic faculties, anyone who attempts to expose their deception, are not to be granted tenure.</p><p>In Canada, we have adopted the London-based debt-money system, controlled by private banks, with government bonds and public debts. Since 1934, we have our own central bank, the Bank of Canada that has not raised, by so much as one dollar, the purchasing power of Canadians. Notwithstanding its name, it was never meant to improve the condition of the Canadian people. The Secretary of the Bank of England was invited to establish the Bank of Canada. Prime-Minister Bennett is not to be blamed if Mr. Osborn was only offered the title of assistant-governor, for he truly held the top job. It had to look as though the slaves of a colony of international finance were the ones in charge.</p><p>In 1935, then Liberal leader, Mackenzie King would tell anyone who cared to listen that if he came to power, he would see to it that government took back the control over money and credit, for democracy has no meaning when bankers have the control over money. Once elected Prime-Minister of Canada, he overthrew laws that had been passed in Alberta which wanted to establish what he had himself promised to estabish in the the whole country, but which he was no longer in no hurry to apply.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

through the banks and without signing any debentures (bonds) for a total of $450 millions. These were the greenbacks of which some $346 millions remained in circulation some 15 years later after much litigation. This was the first time the United States Government ever executed the mandate given it by the Constitution: to coin money and regulate its value, thus removing the burden imposed by the internationalists since the beginning of the Republic.</p><p>This could be duplicated by other countries and signify the end of their dominion by private profiteers. The intervention therefore came rapidly. The American Bankers Association sent a circular letter to all their members that read:</p><p>&#8220;Dear Sir: It is advisable to do all in your power to sustain such prominent daily and weekly newspapers... as will oppose the greenback issue of paper money and that you will also withhold patronage from all applicants who are not willing to oppose the government issue of money.&#8221;</p><p>The United States was in the midst of Civil War, the Secession War (1861-1865). The people&#8217;s sufferings in no way touched the internationalists who had decided three years earlier that a war must be fomented to weaken the United States so as to better establish their monopolies. Their greatest set-back was that during this very war the leader of the country they wished to dominate dared to oppose their financial power. To Lincoln&#8217;s bravery and honesty they would have to oppose a campaign of influence upon the leaders of American financial circles and upon the President&#8217;s close circle.</p><p>The infamous Hazard circular signed in 1862 by a group of the London-based internationalists, favored the abolition of slavery only to replace it by a more subtle form of slavery. It was only fitting that a circular in favor of abolitionism came from a London group since the internationalists had decided that the London group would support the North financially, while the group from Paris would give their financial support to the South. The war must last long enough to weaken the American Nation and to shackle it.</p><p>The Hazard circular was thus sent to all American bankers, as well as to all senators and members of Congress: &#8220;Slavery is likely to be abolished by the war power and chattel slavery destroyed. This, I and my European friends are in favor of, for slavery is but the owning of labor and carries with it the care of the laborers, while the European plan, led by England, is that capital (money lenders) shall control labor by controlling wages.&#8221; (Banishing purchasing power at will and making the laborers victims of unemployment.)</p><p>&#8220;This can be done by controlling the money. The great debt that capitalists will see to it is made out of the war, must be used as a measure to control the volume of money. To accomplish this the bonds must be used as a banking basis. We are now waiting to get the Secretary of the Treasury to make this recommendation to Congress.</p><p>&#8220;It will not do to allow the &#8216;greenback,&#8217; as it is called, to circulate as money, any length of time, for we cannot control them. But we can control the bonds, and through them the bank issue.&#8221;</p><p>Ten years later, America saw chattel slavery replaced by financial dictatorship, and Horace Greeley could write in 1872: &#8220;We have strucken the shackles from four million human beings and brought all laborers to a common level, not so much by the elevation of the former slaves as by practically reducing the whole working population, white and black, to a condition of serfdom. While boasting of our noble deeds, we are careful to conceal the ugly fact that by our iniquitous money system we have nationalized a system of oppression which, though more refined, is not less cruel than the old system of chattel slavery.&#8221;</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg" width="449" height="670" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:670,&quot;width&quot;:449,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Africa enslaved&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Africa enslaved&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Africa enslaved" title="Africa enslaved" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lR7R!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2bbb6248-15fd-45d2-9de5-b34f8ab6857f_449x670.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>All the continents in the world &#8212; and not only Africa &#8212; have become the prey of the financiers</strong></p><p>A contemporary statesman, chancellor Bismark of Germany, had both the position and knowledge to understand better than most what was taking place. His revelation to a German, Conrad Siem, in 1876, sheds a different light upon the series of events we have just mentioned:</p><p>&#8220;The division of the United States into federations of equal force was decided long before the Civil War by the financial powers of Europe. These bankers were afraid that the United States, if they remained in one block and as one nation, would attain economic and financial independence, which would upset their financial domination over the world. The voice of the Rothschilds predominated. They foresaw tremendous booty if they could substitute two feeble democracies, indebted to the financiers, for the vigorous Republic, which was practically self providing.</p><p>&#8220;Therefore, they sent their emissaries in order to exploit the question of slavery and thus to dig an abyss between the two parts of the Republic. Lincoln never suspected these underground machinations. He was against slavery, and he was elected as such. His character prevented him from being the man of one party. When he had affairs in his hands, he perceived that these sinister financiers of Europe wished to make him the executor of their designs. They made the rupture between the North and the South imminent. The masters of finance in Europe made the rupture to exploit. Lincoln&#8217;s personality surprised them. His candidacy had not troubled them; they thought to easily dupe the woodcutter. But Lincoln read their plots and understood that the South was not the worst foe, but the financiers.&#8221;</p><h3>A monetary system that enslaves</h3><p>Bismarck mentions the Rothschilds. This powerful family has largely contributed to the establishment of a worldwide monetary system based on a slave minded philosophy imposed on all mankind. Decorated with titles nowadays, they operate more quietly but no less efficiently with other associates.</p><p>In these former days, they were first in line to put a grab on an America they had neither discovered nor developed. The documents that follow are revealing of the mentality of the masters of money; they also show how wrong we are to be dozing off while the wolves are roaming, or to let ourselves be hypnotized by the champions of &#8220;sound money&#8221;. Where were the leaders of the time? Why did Lincoln have to fight alone, misunderstood, not sustained even by his own Congress? And where are the leaders of the people oday, while the physical health, the intellectual values, the character and lives of our children, of our young people, of our women and of our men are being offered in sacrifice to the artificial scarcity of money?</p><h3>DOCUMENT 1</h3><h3>Letter from the Rothschild Brothers to an international banking firm</h3><p>The following letter, from the Rothschild Brothers of London, was addressed to an international banking firm in New York:</p><p>London, June 25th, 1863</p><p>Messrs. Ikleheimer, Morton and Vandergould,</p><p>No. 3 Wall St., New York, U.S.A.</p><p>Dear Sir:</p><p>A Mr. John Sherman has written us from a town in Ohio, U.S.A., as to the profits that may be made in the National Banking business under a recent act of your Congress, a copy of which act accompanied his letter.</p><p>Apparently this act has been drawn upon the plan formulated here last summer by the British Bankers Association and by that Association recommended to our American friends as one that if enacted into law, would prove highly profitable to the banking fraternity throughout the world.</p><p>Mr. Sherman declares that there has never been such an opportunity for capitalists to accumulate money, as that presented by this act, and that the old plan of State Banks is so unpopular, that the new scheme will, by contrast, be most favorably regarded, notwithstanding the fact that it gives the National Banks an almost absolute control of the National finance. &#8220;The few who can understand the system, he says, will either be so interested in its profits, or so dependent of its favors that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantages that capital derives from the system, will bear its burden without complaint and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests.&#8221;</p><p>Please advise us fully as to this matter and also state whether or not you will be of assistance to us, if we conclude to establish a National Bank in the City of New York. If you are acquainted with Mr. Sherman (he appears to have introduced the Banking Act) we will be glad to know something of him. If we avail ourselves of the information he furnished, we will, of course, make due compensation.</p><p>Awaiting your reply, we are</p><p>Your respectful servants</p><p>Rothschild Brothers.</p><p>We beg our readers to meditate attentively on this document. One will see at least: that the American Banking Law of 1862 was written in accordance with a plan designed in London; that this law was prepared for the greater profit of the world&#8217;s banking fraternity (plague to the American people); that an American public figure, member of Congress, an aspirant to the highest representative function of its citizens, was dealing with the Rothschilds of London for the profit of bankers; that this same public figure, i.e. Sherman, subdivided the American people into three categories, all of whom could easily be maintained on their knees: those who were invested, those who sought the bankers&#8217; favors and the unknowing multitudes. The latter bear all without complaining, unsuspecting of their being sacrificed Of course, an individual like Sherman is a man to be encouraged and rewarded (only in a satanic world).</p><h3>DOCUMENT II</h3><h3>Reply from the banking firm to the Rothschild Brothers</h3><p>Here is the reply from the New York banking firm to the Rothschild Brothers of London:</p><p>New York City, July 6, 1863.</p><p>Messrs. Rothschild Brothers</p><p>London, England</p><p>Dear Sirs:</p><p>We beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of June 25th, in which you refer to a communication received from the Hon. John Sherman of Ohio, with reference to the advantages and profits of an American investment under the provisions of our National Banking Act.</p><p>The fact that Mr. Sherman speaks well of such an investment or of any similar one, is certainly not without weight, for that gentleman possesses in a marked degree, the distinguishing characteristics of the successful financier. His temperament is such that whatever his feelings may be they never cause him to lose sight of the main chance. He is young, shrewd, and ambitious. He has fixed his eyes upon the Presidency of the United States and is already a member of Congress. He rightfully thinks he has everything to gain both politically and financially (he has financial ambitions, too) by being friendly with men and institutions having large financial resources, and which at times, are not too particular in their methods, either of obtaining government aid, or of protecting themselves against unfriendly legislation. We trust him here implicitly. His intellect and ambition combine to make him exceedingly valuable to us, indeed, we predict that if his life is spared, he will prove to be the best friend the moneyed interests of the world have ever had in America.</p><p>As to the organization of a National Bank here, and the nature and profits of such an investment, we beg leave to refer to our printed circular enclosed herein. Inquiries by European Capitalists, concerning this matter, have been so numerous, that for convenience, we have had our views with regard to it put into printed form.</p><p>Should you determine to organize a bank in the City, we shall be glad to aid you. We can easily find financial friends to make satisfactory directory, and to fill official positions not taken up by the personal representatives you will send over.</p><p>Your most obedient servants,</p><p>Ikleheimer, Morton &amp; Vandergould.</p><h3>Finance canonizes the great profiteers</h3><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

who knows to ally himself to the rich and not so scrupulous financial institutions.</p><p>The right law for America is one that so interests the European capitalists, that a circular must be printed to answer their many requests for information.</p><p>The circular must be edifying as well, issuing from such a bandits den. The circular expressing the views of the New York firm (but not an American one) contains 16 items of which those numbered 12, 13, 14 and 15 will be of particular interest to those who seek to know the public enemy no 1. Here they are:</p><p>12. This currency is printed by the U.S. Government in a form so like greenback money, that many people do not detect the difference, although the currency is but a promise of the bank to pay &#8211; that is it is the bank&#8217;s demand note, and must be signed by the Bank&#8217;s president before it can be used.</p><p>13. The demand for money is so great that this currency can be readily loaned to the people across the counter of the bank at a discount at the rate of 10 per cent at 90 days&#8217; to 60 days&#8217; time, making it about 12 per cent interest on the currency.</p><p>14. The interest on the bonds, plus the interest on the currency which the bonds secure, plus incidentals of the business ought to make the gross earnings of the bank amount to from 28 to 33 1/3 per cent. The amount of the dividends that may be declared will depend largely upon the salaries of the officers that the banks vote themselves, and the character and rental charges of the premises occupied by the bank as a place of business. In case it is thought best that the showing of profits should not appear too large, the now common plan of having the directors buy the bank buildings and then raising the rent and salary of the president and cashier may be adopted.</p><p>15. National banks are privileged to either increase or contract their circulation at will, and, of course, can grant or withhold loans as they may see fit. As the banks have a national organization, and can easily act together in withholding loans or extending them, it follows that they can by united action in refusing to make loans, cause a stringency in the money market and in a single week or even in a single day cause a decline in all the products of the country. The tremendous possibilities of speculation involved in this control of the money of a country like the United States will be at once understood by all bankers.</p><h3>Confiscation in times of scarcity</h3><p>Let us underline this last paragraph. By their concerted action, banks can, within a few days, make money scarce and bring down all prices, giving them tremendous possibilities of speculation. Scarcity of money is the banks&#8217; policy. Short lived inflations, also of their doing, cannot last too long; they are part of the plan to prepare large confiscations in periods of stringency that are soon to follow.</p><p>Money must lack continually in the hands of the people, so that people will come time and time again, through their governments or their farmers and industrialists, borrow some at the source of private profits. This policy of scarce money, of monetary exhaustion of the public, is clearly expressed in the following circular issued to all American bankers, in 1887, by authority of the Associated Bankers of New York, Philadelphia and Boston, signed by one James Buel, secretary, and sent from 247 Broadway St, New York:</p><p>&#8220;Dear Sir:&#8212;It is advisable to do all in your power to sustain such prominent daily and weekly newspapers, especially the Religious and Agricultural Press, as will oppose the greenback issue of paper money, and that you also withhold patronage from all applicants who are not willing to oppose the government issue of money.</p><p>&#8220;Let the government issue the coin and the banks issue the paper money of the country, for then we can better protect each other. To repeal the act creating bank notes, or to restore to circulation the government issue of money, will be to provide the people with money and will therefore seriously affect our individual profit as bankers and lenders. See your Congressman at once and engage him to support our interests that we may control legislation.&#8221;</p><p>To see one&#8217;s Congressman so as to engage him to support the bankers&#8217; interests that they may control legislation! Are we not justified, we the promoters of Social Credit, to enlist and to organize the people, the multitude of citizens, to bring to bear an efficient pressure upon the deputies and to counteract the pressure long exercised by finance and by the banks? The circular quoted is dated 1877 and since then the banking fraternity has in no way relaxed its organized power, quite to the contrary, as proven by recent events.</p><h3>The 1893 circular</h3><p>The population must not own any money, they must always rely on the bankers. By reducing monetary provisions by restricting money and credit, banks create recessions, cause prices to fall and scoop up the wealth. We are told it is a panic, a generalized loss of confidence, but what causes this panic, what destroys this confidence? &#8220;The Panic Circular&#8221; was the name given to the circular published by the American Bankers Association on March 12, 1893, and sent to all of the United States National Banks. This was one week after the inauguration of President Cleveland&#8217;s term in office, and bankers wished the repeal of the law passed three years earlier; the 1890 law neutralized in part the harm done by the 1983 law we mentioned above. Banks felt that the people were too independent of them. Money in circulation needed to be decreased. </p><p><strong>Following is the circular dated March 11, 1893 that was sent the following day:</strong></p><p>&#8220;Dear Sir;</p><p>The interests of the National Banks require immediate financial legislation by Congress. Silver certificates and treasury notes must be retired and National Bank Notes upon a gold basis (based on public debt) made the only money. This will require the authorization of $500 million to $1,000 million of new bonds as the basis of circulation You will at once retire one third of your circulation and call one half of your loans. Be careful to make a monetary stringency among your patrons, especially among influential business men. Advocate an extra session of Congress to repeal the purchasing clause of the Sherman Law and act with other banks of your city in securing a large petition to Congress for its unconditional repeal per accompanying form. Use personal influence with your Congressman and particularly let your wishes be known to your Senators. The future life of national banks as fixed and safe investments, depends upon immediate action as there is an increasing sentiment in favor of Government legal tender notes and silver coinage.&#8221; (From Who Rules America by C.K.Howe)</p><p>The well organized Bankers Association won the game against a non organized public. A special Session of Congress was called for the very purpose of destroying the growing confidence of the people in Government money. To force people into using banking money, money had to be made scarce. It was to be felt in all of America and thus was born the crisis called the panic of 1983.</p><p>Is it Heaven, is it weather or is it fate that cause monetary crisis? Does scarcity of money come about without design? Who does it benefit? </p><p><strong>The following excerpt is taken from a confidential circular written two years prior to the 1983 panic:</strong></p><p>&#8220;We authorize our loan agents in the western States to loan our funds on real estate to fall due on September 1, 1894, and at no time thereafter. On September 1, 1894, we will not renew our loans under any consideration. On September 1st we will demand our money. We will foreclose and become mortgagees in possession.</p><p>&#8220;We can take two-thirds of the farms west of the Mississippi, and thousands of them east of the as well own three-fourths of the farms of the West and the money of the country. Then the farmers will become tenants as in England.&#8221;</p><p>Periodic blood-lettings are carried out still, as well as crisis. The 1907 panic, had no other cause than the contraction of credit. This is an excellent example of the type of ploy continually repeated in all financial crises through to the present.</p><p>In May of 1920, a secret meeting was held by the members of the Chamber of the Federal Reserve, its Council and 36 class A Federal Reserve Bank directors. This is the American system of 12 central banks privately owned by member banks, as devised in London by intervention of Paul Warburg, an international financier. After a one day discussion, the assembly decided upon a contraction of the money and credit of the Nation. And so it was that the following July, all prices came tumbling down, farm products fetched half their prices. The 1920-22 recession was on.</p><p>The banks issuing of money as debt, and the reimbursement of these credits under conditions determined by the bankers places the world at the bankers&#8217; discretion and this on an international scale. Recessions are universal. All are concerned.</p><p>In 1929, the rapid recall of credits caused a 20 billion decrease in short term loans in the United States. This bleeding caused a weakening of the economic body; check transactions went down by 1200 billions: two thirds of all money available to commerce and industry disappeared.</p><p>If the banker creates credit that is used as money, he also destroys it, and the circulation of this credit in the economic body, leaves a cancer ridden debt. The great Pope, Pius XI, was right in saying: &#8220;Those who control money and credit have become the masters of our lives.&#8221;</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

have become the masters of our lives, to such an extent that no one dare breathe against their will.&#8221; (Pius XI, Quadragesimo Anno). Someone else added the following half a century ago: These people want the earth to become their inheritance.&#8221;</p><p>And thus, the Earth has become their inheritance. What country is not in debt today? If the whole planet is in debt, do we owe these debts to the inhabitants of Mars or Venus? No, all of these debts are owed to an organized clique of public criminals &#8212; war-mongers, they who starve women and children, they who poison our lives, &#8220;bandits who have replaced their facemask by a white carnation worn on their lapel, and who have given up the gun in favor of a crimson fountain pen. &#8220;(Father Coughlin).</p><p>It is this international monster before which we kowtow religiously, in submission. History does not offer another example of such idiotic abasement of a whole people, except in the worship of the devil or of the stones and metal idols of centuries past. Then also, did the wisemen of the day defend with their name and prestige, a cult which now leaves us pondering. Then also, did the powers of the day form a hedge around foolish practices, and did an elaborate legislation safeguard the throne of an infernal dictator who was playing mankind. Our children might say the same of our own civilization.</p><p>High finance is organized in such a way as to control legislation, to dictate to the world its standard of living. What is needed to strike down this powerful foe is nothing less than the coming together of the whole population, of the multitudes.</p><p>Some people blame us, the defenders of Social Credit, for bringing money matters to the public attention instead of discussing it only with economists or with the proper authorities. We do this because we want results. We want a sorely needed change. If in Lincoln&#8217;s days, the American public had understood the money question, the assassination of this great man would not have caused finance to strengthen its grip upon the American continent. If the Canadian public of all provinces had studied the monetary question since 1933 as was done generally in Alberta, the depression would have ended in 1935 and international finance would no longer have any say in our destinies. Lone individuals have always come forth, they were often heroes; but because they did not know how or were not able to pass on their vision to the people, the people remained in servitude. Jefferson, Lincoln, Greeley, Lindberg, and others in the United States realized, denounced, but nothing changed because the multitudes were unaware.</p><p>Academic discussions held in comfortable chambers will not put an end to misery otherwise they would have done so long ago.</p><p>The powerful and well educated who remain passive or even disdainful in the great fight for economic liberation, should only expect to lose their crown when the public, at last enlightened and freed, will ask where were our leaders when we suffered in servitude.</p><h3>About the Author</h3><div
