Podcast: ‘Taking On The Whole Phony Culture In Which We Live

…And Skewering It From Every Conceivable Angle

I’ve got a lot on my mind these days, and I want to share it with you.

Anybody can listen. No subscription necessary.

Yes, I’ll do some shameless plugging of my work. More than that, I’ll talk about the last 20 years of writing online, and my efforts to get my pieces out there—the successes and also the censorship.

The censorship has been constant, even on so-called alternative sites. I’ll talk about why. I think it’s important to understand why. Vital.

Writing 3 different blogs these days has given me new perspective. I can see more clearly what connects with readers and what doesn’t connect, and why. And this, too, is important to understand.

I’ve been relentless for the past 20 years online, and I’m even more relentless now. Which means I’m taking on the whole phony culture in which we live and skewering it from every conceivable angle.

So many people are falling victim to the culture and don’t even know it. Their internal habits of thought and perception are changing. And not for the better. I’m attacking that every day on Substack, in ways that no one else is. That’s a fact.

I’ll talk about it in the podcast.

At age 84, I’m not running across fields and valleys and hills at top speed anymore. I’m not playing in parks from dawn to dusk with my friends…but I’m writing more than I EVER have. That energy is spilling over. Why? I want to talk about that in the podcast.

I’ve found that when I build the inner fire higher, it grows still higher on its own. That is VERY interesting to me, and I’ll talk about it. I think you’ll find it interesting, too.

And yes, I’ll urge those of you who haven’t subscribed yet to do so. I’ll tell you why I think you should—for the price of one breakfast a month at a diner in 1990. There are exciting new bonuses coming for people who pay for a yearly subscription. I’ll describe a few of them.

I can’t and won’t stop now. There’s no reason to.

Writing every day for Substack has made me realize that CULTURE is the whole story. We live in it and swim in it or we try to wall it off. Culture shapes perception, and perception shapes thought, and this Culture happens to be a MONSTER, so I’m out to slay it.

That decision and commitment have opened up a whole new world of writing for me.

Speaking of which, I’m FOR writing and writers. I’m not ready to surrender the future to the destruction of language. I don’t think you are, either.

The general state of writing these days is wretched. Language is becoming a dead operation whose sole purpose is transmitting data. Whereas writing is supposed to set your hair on fire. It’s supposed to wake up the dead and the half-dead and those who are dozing.

I’ll talk about that.

I’m inviting EVERY ONE OF YOU to buckle up and join me in this podcast.

No holds barred.

    “…I’m taking on the whole phony culture in which we live and skewering it from every conceivable angle.”

    ‘Culture’ is a construct. A human invention. It is not some solid ‘reality’ that exists all on its own and apart from Consciousness.

    Culture is just certain ideas bundled together. Ideas that are hatched from human minds… some of which get imposed upon others by brute force or the power of propaganda. And most of which that are largely just passed along from one generation to another by laziness with little thought and examination about what is being handed to the next group of unfortunate souls.

    That’s the bad news. The good news is that culture can be OTHER ideas from OTHER minds and OTHER values and OTHER spiritual essences. Some of which that can be shared with others who resonate with those Other Thoughts and in doing so creating a new alternative Culture to the consensus brute-force, low-vibrating one that we are living with right now.

    “… when I build the inner fire higher, it grows still higher on its own.”

    Energy is intoxicating. The good kind of intoxication. It is also addicting. The good kind of addiction. And it is not just empowering but it FEELS GOOD. And when you get in That Zone… you wonder how you could have ever lived without it. (And in large part, you didn’t ‘live’ without it. You were mostly existing on auto-pilot and low gear).

    “… CULTURE is the whole story. We live in it and swim in it or we try to wall it off. Culture shapes perception, and perception shapes thought, and this Culture happens to be a MONSTER, so I’m out to slay it.”

    As usual, let’s go back one step. The ‘whole story’ begins with the Minds and Thoughts that create a culture in the first place. Who thought those thoughts? Are they good thoughts? Are they worthy to pass along into Society or should they be retired to the nearest garbage can ASAP? What are NEW thoughts? What are thoughts we’ve never ‘thought’ of, before?

    We live within many cultures simultaneously. We have a personal culture. We have a family and friends culture. We have a National culture. We have a World culture.

    Each and every one of these needs to be fully examined and explored with depth and fearlessness.

    And some features of these cultures we need to embrace. And others we need to reject and replace.

    It starts with you. Everybody.

    Thank you Jon Rappaport for saving my mind!

    Jon is such good fire, and determination, and sharing. The part of what Jon is saying, or so I think, is – so can everyone, break off the brain prison being made by the many cons. Also false money, false systems, cyst ems.

    The big share is someone like Jon encouraging others to get in the energy life also. The false ‘icons’ in plastic box tv and ‘watching’ non-culture is a death trap. Literal death trap. Things continue to constrict and wil be a time people can’t do anything to stop the smiley viper destruction cons, remember half are female or appear to be. People are going to grossly regret the wasted time.

    People can be warriors and sharing also. Each person should use energy, share energy.

    Appreciate you much Jon, and the podcast. Real sage and energy.

    In order to slay the MONSTER, we need to realize that we are in a spiritual war against humans who themselves are under the power and direction of preternatural beings with bad intentions, i.e. fallen angels or demons from hell, and we humans of the natural order cannot overcome beings of the preternatural order on our own. But we can with help from the good angels and from the divine supernatural order. This angels and demons talk may sound quaint and very unenlightened to some, but just ask the woman on Oprah about the latter (surprisingly still on youtube, given her group identity):

    Or ask the former Satanist High Priest about it:

    In a spiritual battle one needs spiritual weapons. Prayer is a good place to start.
