I grew up in the early days of television, when Edward R Murrow and Douglas Edwards were the voices of the news. Murrow came to be the king.
It was his hollow, somber delivery that seemed to resonate with poetry. For the first time, America had a voice and a picture, every night, to give rhythm and pace to events of its time.
The level of trance was remarkable.

Soviet psychiatric drug for dissidents given to US patients
by Jon Rappoport
February 1, 2014
It’s called Haldol. The generic name is haloperidol.
It’s classified as an “anti-psychotic.”
You’ll read that Haldol is being phased out in the US, but “PM: The Essential Resource for Pharma Marketers” reports that Haldol accounts for 5% of anti-psychotic prescriptions handed out between 2010 and 2011.
That’s 2.7 million prescriptions for Haldol. In one year, in the US.
The major and frequent adverse effects of the drug? Akathisia (the irresistible and painful impulse to keep moving, the inability to sit still), dystonia (severe muscle contractions that twist the body grotesquely), and Parkinsonism.
In short, torture.
All three of these effects can indicate motor brain damage.
Here is a quote from a news-medical.net article, “Haloperidol—What Is Haloperidol?”:
“There are multiple reports from Soviet dissidents, including medical staff, on the use of haloperidol in the Soviet Union for punitive purposes or simply to break the prisoners’ will. Notable dissidents that were administered haloperidol as part of their court ordered treatment were Sergei Kovalev and Leonid Plyushch.”
From the same article, there is this blockbuster statement:
“Haloperidol has been used for its sedating effects during the deportations of aliens by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). During 2002-2008, federal immigration personnel used haloperidol to sedate 356 deportees. By 2008, follow[ing] court challenges over the practice, haloperidol was given to only 3 detainees. Following lawsuits, U.S. officials changed the procedure so that it is done only by the recommendation of medical personnel and under court order.”
In his landmark book, Toxic Psychiatry, Dr. Peter Breggin quotes Leonid Plyushch, a scientist and political dissenter in the USSR, who escaped to the US: “[In a Soviet prison, after dosing with a small amount of Haldol] I was horrified to see how I deteriorated intellectually, morally and emotionally from day to day. My interest in political problems quickly disappeared, then my interest in scientific problems, and then my interest in my wife and children.”
In the 1960s and 70s, Haldol was given to “angry black men” in America, after laying on the justification that they were suffering from schizophrenia.
Here is a quote from the 2012 edition of Virtual Mentor, the American Medical Association Journal of Ethics. It concerns a pharmaceutical ad that ran in the May 1974 issue of the Archives of General Psychiatry:
“…in the ad, an angry African American man shakes his fist menacingly…the text above the image…’Assaultive and belligerent?’ ‘Cooperation often begins with Haldol.’”
Yes it does. Cooperation begins with the the torture delivered by Haldol.
Warning! Do not try to withdraw from Haldol or any psychiatric drug without proper guidance. The effects of the withdrawal can be more dangerous than the drug’s effects. See, for example, the work of Dr. Peter Breggin and his advice on withdrawal, at www.breggin.com
“…in the disputes between the East and West concerning the Russian opponents of the Soviet regime… [m]any dissidents went to lunatic asylums and were treated as mentally sick. Western doctors and the press accused Soviet doctors of being blind instruments of the regime and of having broken the solemn oath of their calling. The Russian doctors thought the West had gone mad in reproaching their behavior. For them, anyone who opposed such an efficient police power must be mentally disturbed. In their view, only those who had what Seneca called Libido morienti (the death wish) would dare to provoke the State. The Russian doctors were convinced that they were undertaking a humanitarian mission by placing the opponents of the regime in asylums and thereby reducing their aggression–the only hope for their survival. To reduce the outstanding to mediocrity was always a medical and human duty in a state where mediocrity had the better chance of survival.” — “Man: The Fallen Ape” by Branko Bokun

Introduction to The Matrix Revealed and Exit From the Matrix
by Jon Rappoport
February 1, 2014
Here is the breakdown on what is contained in my mega-collection, The Matrix Reveled:
250 megabytes of information.
Over 1100 pages of text.
Ten and a half hours of audio.
The 2 bonuses alone are rather extraordinary:
My complete 18-lesson course, LOGIC AND ANALYSIS, which includes the teacher’s manual and audio to guide you. I was previously selling the course for $375. This is a new way to teach logic, the subject that has been missing from schools for decades.
The complete text (331 pages) of AIDS INC., the book that exposed a conspiracy of scientific fraud deep within the medical research establishment. The book has become a sought-after item, since its publication in 1988. It contains material about viruses, medical testing, and the invention of disease that is, now and in the future, vital to our understanding of phony epidemics arising in our midst. I assure you, the revelations in the book will surprise you; they cut much deeper and are more subtle than “virus made in a lab” scenarios.
The heart and soul of this product are the text interviews I conducted with Matrix-insiders, who have first-hand knowledge of how the major illusions of our world are put together:
ELLIS MEDAVOY, master of PR, propaganda, and deception, who worked for key controllers in the medical and political arenas. 28 interviews, 290 pages.
RICHARD BELL, financial analyst and trader, whose profound grasp of market manipulation and economic-rigging is formidable, to say the least. 16 interviews, 132 pages.
JACK TRUE, the most creative hypnotherapist on the face of the planet. Jack’s anti-Matrix understanding of the mind and how to liberate it is unparalleled. His insights are unique, staggering. 43 interviews, 320 pages.
Then there are several more interviews with brilliant analysts of the Matrix. 53 pages.
The ten and a half hours of mp3 audio are my solo presentation, based on these interviews and my own research. Title: The Multi-Dimensional Planetary Chessboard—The Matrix vs. the Un-Conditioning of the Individual.
Many people will not accept their own experience, when it exceeds their rock-hard idea of what reality is all about.
They will change their own past, their own memories, their own perception, if necessary.
This is how deep their loyalty to ordinary reality runs.
Crack after crack could appear in the Matrix, and they would feverishly patch them up, while pretending there are no cracks at all.
And if you think such people will ever admit to a role in creating their own narrow version of reality in the first place, you’re dreaming.
But an understanding of the Matrix has to involve both what elite controllers are doing to shape the world, and what each person is doing to define the limits of his own experience.
In September of 1974, exhausted, feeling at the end of my rope, wishing I could just take off from Los Angeles and find a place with white sand and blue water and a quiet cabin to sleep in for two weeks…
I found myself, instead, lying on a table in a dim room in a house in West LA, late in the afternoon.
One of the great body healers in the world, Hadidjah Lamas, who practiced a strenuous form of what’s calling Rolfing, was sitting next to me.
But she was just going to put her hands on my head, because that’s what I asked her to do. I had a feeling something might happen. I had a great deal of experience doing a simple form of “laying on of hands,” and I needed that myself now.
She held her hand on my forehead for fifteen minutes or so, and absolutely nothing occurred.
Then, with my eyes open, lying on my back, I saw a black contraption that looked like a mask. It seemed to be made out of iron. It was shaped like a skull. Strips of iron with spaces between them.
It meant nothing to me, but it was quite startling, especially because my eyes were open and this iron mask was sitting there, in the air, about a foot in front of my face.
It began to revolve, spin slowly in place.
It spun faster, and then like a ship gathering momentum, it moved off away from me toward the far end of the room.
It picked up speed and vanished through an open door and was gone.
This was rather astonishing.
I lay there.
Then, at the edges of my perception, little glitters of blue and yellow appeared.
More of them showed up.
Within perhaps 15 or 20 seconds, the blue and yellow were a sparkling field, and the field was all around me, and I was lying in it.
The field was pulsing.
I was going through rapid stages of relaxing, deeper and deeper, sinking into myself.
Finally, I just lay there and looked at and felt the field.
I said, “I think I just had my vacation.”
I got up off the table, stretched, and felt quite fantastic.
As Hadidjah and I talked, I noticed that the pitch of my voice had dropped a few notches.
Later that night, at home, I was sitting in a chair looking out the window, and I noticed—as if it were quite natural—that the trees, the street, the lights in other houses, the lawns were all, how to put this… participating together, collaborating to constitute a painting, a scene. They were animations of ideas. They were expressing themselves. They weren’t merely “there.”
Being “merely there” was an illusion we smugly and rationally employed and projected to assure ourselves that physical reality was solid, straightforward, and monolithic.
Our illusion was an overlay. A concept. A habit.
“Things in space” were actually “doing art” by expressing themselves. In that sense, they were alive, unmistakably so.
You might even say they were delighted at being able to show us what they were.
Whereas we usually perceive in a kind of monotone flat fashion, satisfied with far less, for the duration of our lives.
I realized how far people would go to protect their perceptual overlay on the world.
Fifteen years later, when I told my friend and colleague, hypnotherapist Jack True, about this experience, he said, “Don’t stop now.”
“Don’t stop what?” I said.
“The whole investigation,” he said. “How we put ordinary reality together and keep manufacturing it. How we keep insisting it’s ordinary.”
The whole story of how I put together The Matrix Revealed is much bigger than what I’ve written here, but this is a significant thread.
What people call “paranormal” isn’t. It’s what happens when the “normal curtain” is taken away.
Richard Jenkins, the extraordinary healer I discuss in my book, The Secret Behind Secret Societies (included as a bonus book in the Exit From the Matrix collection), once told me, “’Normal’ is like taking a wonderful meal, all the parts of it, and putting them together in a grinder and reducing them to a gray mixture. “’Normal’ is the gray stuff. It’s forgetting what you had before.”
Forgetting what you had before.
“Enhanced reality,” “magical reality,” was what we had before.
Since that 1974 experience, I’ve worked on developing exercises that bring us back toward enhanced reality, because information is half of the process of understanding Matrix. The other half is daily practice that yields the actual experience of awake consciousness. I’ve included exercises designed for that purpose in Exit From the Matrix.
For this work, I have to thank, in part, Jack True and several of his patients, who showed me that expanded perception of reality is factual, it can be integrated into life, and it is normal in the best sense of that word.
The investigation of Matrix inevitably leads back to Tibet where, 1500 years ago, exiled teachers from India, who had challenged major premises of the academic culture in their home country, wandered into Tibet and started “schools.”
These schools were very practical in nature. They taught that one’s own experience was paramount, and exercises designed to increase creative power would open doors and reveal secrets about the basis of reality, secrets that had been buried under a welter of ideas that added up to political control.
For a period of time, in Tibet, the control was removed, and as I would put it, infinity was laid out in full view, for those who wanted to see it.
The machinery of the Matrix was set aside, like a foolish joke.
Everything I’ve been doing for the past 20 years is unalterably committed to the conviction that we, now, can provide the punchline to the joke. And live at another level.

The virtual society is being built: refining the Matrix
by Jon Rappoport
January 14, 2014
Research on simulating the human brain is marching forward. Corporations are attempting to build devices that talk to their users in a “realistic” fashion.
These computers would continuously update profiles of their owners, seeking to read their emotional states and preferences and respond to them.
The old phrase, “the machine age,” takes on new meaning. Sellers are betting that consumers want machines that understand them. This bet has a corollary: human to human interaction is just too complicated and unpredictable.
Instead, machines can be programmed to reflect their users. Narcissism wins.
“I’m your machine. I’m not here to criticize you or challenge you. I’m here to be like you and serve your needs. I’m here to talk to you in ways you understand and appreciate.”
This is a far cry from the robotic telephone operator who puts you on hold for 20 minutes. This is friendship. This is happiness.
There’s one major stumbling block. The emotional range of an alive and alert human is too wide, too subtle, and too varied to embed in a machine that is supposed to stand in as a friend and companion.
The response to that problem is: reduce the range of the human user.
This campaign has been underway for some time. Watch movies, watch television shows and video games, listen to popular music, listen to politicians. It’s all about reduction. Simplification. Lowest common denominators.
Observe the slogans of social movements. If you have the stomach for it, go into a public school and watch what teachers are doing to your children.
Check out New Age-type spiritual movements. Notice how they tend to sell oversimplified slogans and encourage focusing on empty generalizations.
You see, the individual is too complex for this new machine age. His range of feeling and thought must be diminished.
Eventually, he’ll interact with a sophisticated talking computer and feel right at home. He’ll believe his emotions are being mirrored and appreciated.
Reduction. Never proliferation.
If you’ve ever studied infomercials, you know the whole business is based on back-end sales. It’s not the product you buy for $19.95, it’s the products they can hook you into after you spend the $19.95.
So it is with Google Glass. It’s all about the apps that’ll be attached.
Glass gives the wearer short-hand reality as he taps in. That’s what it’s for. The user is “on the go.” If he’s driving his Lexus and suddenly thinks about Plato, he’s not going to download the full text of The Republic to mull while he’s crashing into big trucks on the Jersey Turnpike. He’s going to take a shorthand summary. A few lines.
People want boiled-down info while they’re on the move. Reduction. The “essentials.”
This is perfectly in line with the codes of the culture. Ads, quick-hitter seminars, headlines, two-sentence summaries, ratings for products, news with no context. Stripped-down.
Well, here is a look into right now. A student at Stanford is developing a Google app that “reads other people.”
From SFGate, 8/26, “Google Glass being designed to read emotions”: “The [emotion-recognition] tools can analyze facial expressions and vocal patterns for signs of specific emotions: Happiness, sadness, anger, frustration, and more.” (the SFGate article is also here with videos and images). (and on WIRED Magazine here).
This is the work of Catalin Voss (twitter), an 18-year-old student at Stanford and his start-up company, Sension.
“So you’re wearing Google Glass at a meeting and it checks out the guy across the table who has an empty expression on his mug and, above your right eye, you see the word ‘neutral.’ Now he smiles, and the word ‘happy’ appears.”
This information is supposed to guide you in your communication. The number of things that can go wrong? Count the ways, if you’re able. I’m personally looking forward to that guy across the table saying, “Hey, you, schmuck with the Glass, what is your app saying about me now? Angry?” That should certainly enhance the communication.
Or a husband, just back from his 12-mile morning bike ride, enters his Palo Alto home, wearing Glass, of course, and as he looks at his wife, who is sitting at the kitchen table reading a book, he sees the word “sad” appear above his eye. “Honey,” he says, recalling the skills he picked up in a 26-minute webinar, “have you been pursuing a negative line of thinking?”
She slowly gazes up at the goggle-eyed monster in his spandex and grasshopper helmet, rises from her chair and tosses a plate of hot eggs in his face. YouTube, please!
But wait. There’s more. The Glass app is also being heralded as a step forward in “machine-human relationships.” With recognition services like Google Now and Siri, when computers and human users talk to each other, the computers will be able to respond not only to the content of the user’s words, but also to his tone, his feelings.
This should be a real marvel. The emotion-recognition tool is all about reduction. It shrinks human feelings to simplistic labels. Therefore, what machines say back to humans will be something to behold.
Machine version of NLP, anyone?
The astonishing thing about this new app is that many tech people are so on-board with it. In other words, they believe that human feelings can be broken down and worked with on an androidal basis, with no loss incurred. These people are already boiled down, cartoonized.
You think you’ve observed predictive programing in movies? That’s nothing. The use of apps like this one will help bring about a greater willingness on the part of humans to reduce their own thoughts and feelings to…FIT THE SPECS OF THE MACHINES AND THE SOFTWARE.
Count on it.
This isn’t really about machines acting more like humans. It’s about humans acting like machines.
The potential range of human emotions is extraordinary. Our language, when used with imagination, actually extends that range. It’s something called art.
No matter how subtle the machines and their emotion-recognition algorithms become, there will always be a wide, wide gap between what they produce and the expression of humans.
The most profound kind of mind control seeks to eliminate that gap by encouraging us to mimic technology. That means people will think and feel less, and what they think and feel will mean less.
The machines won’t say, “I’m sorry, I can’t identify that emotion, it’s too complex.” They’ll say “sad” or “happy” or “upset” or whatever they have to say to give the appearance that they’re on top of the human condition.
Eventually, significant numbers of people will tailor their self-awareness to what the machines point to, name, label, declare.
Thus, inventing reality.
The wolf becomes a lamb, the lamb becomes a flea.
And peace prevails. You can wear it and see with it.
Eventually, realizing that Glass is too obvious and obnoxious and bulky, companies will develop something they might call Third Eye, a chip the size of half a grain of rice, made flat, and inserted under the skin of the forehead.
Perfect. Invisible. Of course, cops will have them. And talk to them.
“I’m parked at the corner of Wilshire and Westwood. Suspicious male standing outside the Harmon Building.”
“I see him. Searching relevant data.”
Which means any past arrests, race, conditions noted in his medical records, tax status, questionable statements he’s made in public or private, significant known associates, group affiliations, etc. And present state of mind.
The cop: “Recommendation?”
“Passive-aggressive, right now he’s peaking at 3.2 on the Hoover Bipolar scale. Bring subject into custody for general questioning.”
“Will do.”
No one will wonder why, because such analysis resonates with the vastly reduced general perception of what reality is all about.
People mimic how machines see them and adjust their human thinking accordingly.
Hand and glove, key and lock. Wonderful.
As the cop is transporting the suspect to the station, Third Eye intercedes: “Sorry, Officer Crane, it took me a minute to dig further. Suspect is an important business associate of (REDACTED). This is a catch and release. Repeat, catch and release. Printing out four backstage passes to Third Memorial Rolling Stones concert at the Hollywood Bowl. Apologize profusely, give subject the tickets, and release him immediately.”
“I copy.”
“This arrest and attendant communication is being deleted…now.”
Here is another long-term trend that’s conspired to produce humans who want to interact with machines in a virtual world: child-entitlement.
Give a child what he wants when he wants it. Every time. Become a slave to your child’s immediate needs. (And when you’re exhausted from that routine, just set him up in front of the television set, where he can experience fast-cutting shows that entrain his brain to accept a shortened attention span. More reduction.)
It’s easy. And 30 years from now, a child won’t even want his parents, because his companion, friend, and guide, his personal machine, a little cube he carries around with him, will understand him so much better.
“Good morning, Jimmy. It’s me again, your friend Oz. How are you feeling? Happy, sad? Let me do a quick scan. I see you’re a little sad…”

The creative flowering of humankind
by Jon Rappoport
January 3, 2013
Over the past several months, I’ve written articles about how I put together my two collections, The Matrix Revealed and Exit From the Matrix.
There were many threads, many investigations, and much history, some of it personal.
And then there is the why behind it all.
The basic human response to the world around us, unless that response is repressed, is creative.
It’s so natural and direct, one wonders how it can get lost.
The world is a work of art; therefore, it reminds people of creating art themselves.
So easy, so simple. But then the static interference sets in. The static of “should” and “must.” The demands for obedience. The fear of freedom transmitted from person to person.
These elements set up like clay and then they harden. They form a subconscious mold into which life must be poured.
At the highest levels of perverse power, societies and civilizations are made larger and more encompassing. The should, the must, the obedience, the fear are institutionalized.
I’m reminded of science fiction novelist Philip Dick’s remark: “Because today we live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups…So I ask, in my writing, What is real? Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo-realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms…They have a lot of it [power]. And it is an astonishing power: that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind. I ought to know. I do the same thing.”
Who will create your reality?
A baby crawling across the floor picking up objects and grasping them, biting them, looking at them, is not only exploring this world; he is gathering material and sensations and images for creative output. He is very much an artist, diving into new experience, from which he will make, unless stopped, imaginative responses.
Imagination, intensely pursued, long enough, begins to break apart the Matrix of trance-like normality.
Creative action is never predictable. It blooms in all directions. It supersedes systems and established patterns. It crashes internal programming. It is not a slave to past, present, or future.
When the creative life takes over, the old rationality of caution, obedience, hardened dead ideas, boredom, and frustration begin to disintegrate.
Space is new, time is new, energy is new.
Here is the list of elements in my collection, Exit From the Matrix.
First, the brand new audio presentations:

All the audio presentations are mp3 files. You download them.
What has been called The Matrix is a series of layers. These layers compose what we call Reality. Reality is not merely the consensus people accept in their daily lives. It is also a personal and individual conception of limits. It is a perception that these limits are somehow built into existence. But this is not true.
What I’ve done here is remove the lid on those perceived limits. This isn’t an intellectual undertaking. It’s a way to open up space and step on to a new road.
That road travels to more and more creative power, joy, and fulfillment.
During that great adventure, the individual experiences what has been labeled “paranormal” and “synchronistic” and “magical.” These words really don’t do us justice. They only hint at what we are and what we can do.
I put this collection together because it expresses, explains, and shows, in detail, how the individual can rediscover and reclaim his/her true power.
That process, that engagement, that life, is beyond solving problems. Our problems, at the core, exist only because we have “misplaced an infinity.”
Everything I’ve done and written in the past 20 years has been aimed, one way or another, at bringing back that infinity, seeing through the layers of disguise, and moving ahead on the sunlit road we all desire.

Duck Dynasty On Trial
by Jon Rappoport
December 27, 2013
Author’s note: Based on experience, I know at least a few people out there will believe this is a factual account of a true trial. Brain damage? Public-school education? Drugs?
No, this account isn’t real.
It’s more real than real.
I have never met Phil Robertson. I’ve never watched Duck Dynasty. The last time I ate duck was 1968. I went back to chicken and turkey. I’ve seen ducks. The ones with green heads are attractive. I believe ducks are well-behaved, in contrast to their distant relatives, geese, which are a quite nasty bunch. And that’s it.
This is a transcript of the secret trial of Phil Robertson, patriarch of Duck Dynasty.
The trial was held in chambers, with only a robot stenographer present, as a third party, on May 2, 2014, in the US Federal Court of Public Speech and Hate Crimes, Judge Tomas de Torquemada presiding.
The Judge conducted an interview of the defendant and rendered an absolute and final verdict.
The transcript was leaked to this author. The anonymous leaker is now being sought by Homeland Security. His whereabouts are unknown. It is rumored he has gained “asylum” in the swamps of Louisiana.
Judge Torquemada: Good morning, Mr. Robertson. I see your gag and shackles have been removed. Are you comfortable?
Phil Robertson: My mouth is fuzzy, Your Honor.
Judge Torquemada: Fuzzy? Fuzz? Is that a derogative reference to the police?
Phil Robertson: What? No. My mouth is dry.
Judge Torquemada: Do you own a gun?
Phil Robertson: Yes.
Judge Torquemada: Do you ever think about guns in a positive light?
Phil Robertson: Sure.
Judge Torquemada: Indicates an undiagnosed psychiatric condition requiring treatment. For the record, I want to state that, contrary to media reports, the defendant has not been placed in thumb screws or a stock. Homeland Security had, in fact, brought these devices to the defendant’s cell, but upon examination, they were non-functional.
Phil Robertson: Your Honor, the cops set a speaker outside my cell and blared loud music for two days.
Judge Torquemada: Correction. These were federal agents, not “cops.” The purpose of the music was to deter you from hate-ruminating.
Phil Robertson: Why am I on trial? This is a federal proceeding. My conflict was with a cable television network, a private corporation.
Judge Torquemada: True, but when the public response rose to a pitch of 147 [a federal “red-line” index-measurement], it became a national security issue.
Phil Robertson: Security against what threat?
Judge Torquemada: Hate speech is a kind of bomb. Its detonation creates ripples. To put it another way, it is a highly contagious germ. Permitting it to spread unchecked results in escalating levels of hate directed toward protected groups.
Phil Robertson: So I’m a disease carrier?
Judge Torquemada: Your words, sir.
Phil Robertson: I was being sarcastic.
Judge Torquemada: Sarcasm directed at a law-enforcement officer is a crime. Haven’t you seen the “no jokes, please” signs placed at airport security checkpoints? The stenographer will note that Mr. Robertson has just committed a class A felony. Let us proceed. Mr. Robertson, did you voice, in a magazine interview, the opinion that homosexuality is a sin?
Phil Robertson: I did.
Judge Torquemada: And when you made that comment, were you acting the role you play on your television show, Duck Dynasty?
Phil Robertson: Are you kidding?
Judge Torquemada: Another piece of sarcasm. Stenographer, make a note. .
Phil Robertson: On the show, I’m myself. I’m not playing someone else.
Judge Torquemada: Why did you assail homosexuality?
Phil Robertson: I didn’t assail anything. But I believe homosexuality is a sin.
Judge Torquemada: On what basis?
Phil Robertson: The Bible, which is the word of God.
Judge Torquemada: In other words, religion.
Phil Robertson: My religious conviction.
Judge Torquemada: Are you aware the Constitution mandates a separation between Church and State?
Phil Robertson: I’m not a government employee speaking on behalf of the government. I’m a private citizen.
Judge Torquemada: Yes, but when your statements become public, and when they take on the characteristics of a contagious organism, the government must assert a position vis-a-vis public life. Public life is the government’s domain.
Phil Robertson: Since when?
Judge Torquemada: More sarcasm. You’re piling up offenses, sir. As you may know, holding strong religious feelings of a fundamentalist nature is listed, in various law-enforcement manuals, as one of the telltale signs of potential terrorist activity.
Phil Robertson: I’m not a terrorist. I love my country.
Judge Torquemada: So you claim the Bible condemns homosexuality.
Phil Robertson: It does.
Judge Torquemada: I’ve read the relevant passages. Would you admit the Bible is an example of hate speech?
Phil Robertson: No.
Judge Torquemada: But you see, it is. And therefore it should be banned, or at least censored to remove the offending statements.
Phil Robertson: God made those statements.
Judge Torquemada: And you believe in this God. So you are aiding and abetting. And God is guilty of hate speech. He should be censored as well. If he existed, he would be.
Phil Robertson: He does exist, sir. I’m sure He’s watching this trial.
Judge Torquemada: I’m taking that as a veiled threat against a federal official. Clerk, make another note. This is an act of terrorism under the Patriot Act.
Phil Robertson: You’re right, it is a threat. But it’s not coming from me.
Judge Torquemada: You’re delusional, sir. You, knowing the mind of a fictional God? You needed treatment a long time ago. Anti-psychotic medication, at the very least. Perhaps shock treatment or a partial lobotomy. It’s too late now, though. This trial will proceed. By the way, do you have an unlicensed vegetable garden on your property? Do any of your relatives sell lemonade by the side of the road? Have they ever brought a toy gun or a picture of a gun to school? Have they ever posted a political statement on Facebook? Stenographer, make a note to launch an investigation into these potential violations.
Phil Robertson: What happened to a jury of my peers?
Judge Torquemada: I am that jury, by proxy. I am every citizen who has ever suffered at the hands of haters. I take my responsibility seriously. I carry that burden with pride. I am also no one. I earn no fame from my position. I serve humbly. I refuse personal gain from this work. I believe in the ultimate Oneness of the people and the State.
Phil Robertson: You lost me there. How can you be no one? You’re a judge. You decide cases. You’re supposed to refer to the law of the land. The First Amendment right to free speech. And where does any law state that the people and the State are the same thing? I disagree with all of this. You’re just cooking up a sentence for me. The people are above the government. The government was created to serve the people. This isn’t a dictatorship.
Judge Torquemada: You’re wrong on every count, Mr. Robertson. One, I make my decisions on behalf of the people. Two, free speech doesn’t extend to incendiary pronouncements. Three, the people and the State are very much the same thing, because the State is the embodiment of the people’s needs. For the good of all. We’re all in this together. If we weren’t, we would have chaos. My job is to cull the outsiders, who are a threat to the Whole and the common social contract. You’re also wrong when you claim the government shouldn’t take you into custody and put you on trial. You attack gay men, a protected group. That’s a crime.
Phil Robertson: I wasn’t attacking them. I was saying they’re wrong. They’re committing a sin.
Judge Torquemada: Yes, and statements have consequences.
Phil Robertson: If we had to account for all the consequences of what we say, if we had to be responsible for every interpretation another person might place on what we say, we’d all be silent.
Judge Torquemada: That option has been considered. I take it you have no intention of retracting your injurious statements about homosexuality.
Phil Robertson: I wouldn’t retract my religious faith, either.
Judge Torquemada: Will you throw yourself on the mercy of the court?
Phil Robertson: I’m not seeing any mercy here. “The court” is slicing a whole lot of baloney.
Judge Torquemada: And your God will punish me for it?
Phil Robertson: That’s up to Him.
Judge Torquemada: How would he punish me?
Phil Robertson: He has his own court. He makes the rules.
Judge Torquemada: Care to hazard a guess?
Phil Robertson: I don’t know, maybe seasoning and roasting you on a spit?
Judge Torquemada: Where is his mercy, then?
Phil Robertson: He sent his only Son, Jesus, to die for all our sins. So we could be redeemed. That’s seems like mercy to me.
Judge Torquemada: Toward the son?
Phil Robertson: Toward all of humanity. His Son could take care of Himself. He endured His suffering and pain.
Judge Torquemada: I’d like to see you burning at the stake on a boat floating down the Hudson River.
Phil Robertson: I’d like to see you when you meet your Maker fifteen seconds after you die.
Judge Torquemada: Before I pass sentence on you, sir, I’d like you to understand the bigger picture. Make no mistake, you are an obstruction to the aims of the State, and I will remove the obstruction. But on a different level, and this is important to grasp, the whole embroilment between the “the people of faith” and the “gay community” is a shadow play designed to distract the population from the theft of their world.
The new world coming into being has nothing to do with “rights” or “special interests” or “protected groups.” These are ultimately fictions of convenience. The new world is entirely composed of special interests, by which I mean giant corporations that are taking over the production of all significant goods and services, and their distribution.
The men who operate that program are kings. The population of earth will be the labor force and the consumers. In their leisure time, they will take their little pleasures as they see fit.
You, sir, are a temporary fleck of contagion in this bloodstream, because the kind of freedom you represent, in cartoon form, is independent of the State. The new freedom is under the roof of the giant factory and the giant office building and the government building and inside the warrens of workers’ living quarters. It is freedom inside the system.
As limited as that freedom will be, it is based on superficial physical pleasures. Choose this pleasure or that. If having sex with inanimate objects became a popular trend, it would first be tolerated, and then eagerly championed. Whatever it takes to sustain the workers’ sense of personal satisfaction.
Do you glimpse the real perspective now, sir?
I could sentence you to death or life in prison. I could lock you up in a mental institution, where doctors would work on you and, after a few years of treatment, you would never be able to think a cogent thought again. But instead, I will take a humane course and release you back into the world.
I’m confident that, within a year or so, you’ll find yourself in the middle of an unseemly scandal, and your reputation will suffer irreparably. You will be a stained man, another popular figure who faded into obscurity.
These scandals have a way of surfacing without warning…if you get my meaning…
Phil Robertson: I’m a simple country boy, Judge. A lot of what you just said went by me—
Judge Torquemada: Really? I doubt that. You’re no barefoot redneck. You and your family were rich before Duck Dynasty ever became a television show.
Phil Robertson: Any person can voice his opinion. That freedom has all those ripples you spoke about. It spreads. Other people wake up. This isn’t a little thing. It’s bigger than big. I know you want to stop it. You’re in a bad place with that. It isn’t going to work.
Judge Torquemada: Oh, it’s already working. We’re an army of disciplinarians. We’re everywhere.
Phil Robertson: Who’s in a delusion now? Your thing’s boomeranging. You people went too far. Most Americans are willing to settle for live-and-let-live, but you want a lot more.
Judge Torquemada: I’m still a fifteenth-century man, Mr. Robertson. I want a confession from you. I’ll settle for one between us, in this room. Now. Alone.
Phil Robertson: A confession of what?
Judge Torquemada: Your sins.
Phil Robertson: That’s between God and me.
Judge Torquemada: You’re missing the point. Between you and “your God,” now stands the State. You have to go through the State. All roads are built that way.
Phil Robertson: Okay. I confess to being right about what I said in the magazine interview. And the last time I looked, a man doesn’t have to apologize for being right.
Judge Torquemada: Don’t you understand? There is no more “being right.” Every statement a person makes is judged by its effect on others. That’s the filter.
Phil Robertson: Then why didn’t the State just censor my interview?
Judge Torquemada: Because we’d get too much blowback. In this day and age, we use media and public reaction as our censor. We invent public reaction when necessary.
Phil Robertson: I’m outside the State. What I have as a human being isn’t given to me by the State.
Judge Torquemada: That’s all changing. Soon, it’ll be obvious to everyone that they have all the diseases and the mental disorders the State says they have, from cradle to grave. And that’s just one example of how the great change is coming about. People will have only the money the State says they have, only the property the State says they have, only the freedom to assemble and travel the State says they have.
Phil Robertson: That’s not America. That doesn’t have anything to do with America.
Judge Torquemada: America is a fantasy that’s dying out. It’s just a name, a word. America is part of that new world I mentioned. It’s a contributing member. It abides by international rules, for the good and glory of the whole body.
Phil Robertson: Here’s another part of my confession, Judge. You’re a madman.
Judge Torquemada: Correction. I’m a servant of the cutting edge. You’re a throwback. I’m the new revolutionary spirit. If people knew me, they’d hail me as a most humane creature toiling on behalf of the poor, the suffering, the ignored, the oppressed. They’d build statues of me. I’m an officer in the poor people’s army. And our ranks are growing every day.
Phil Robertson: You’ll be stopped.
Judge Torquemada: Do you realize how hollow that sounds? You’re talking from the past, Mr. Robertson. You’re a desperate man flailing against change. You’re a small ogre in a swamp, stomping around and gibbering. Already, new events and stories are superseding your outbursts.
Phil Robertson: You’re a loser. You have nothing of your own. You’re an empty shell. You’re just a reflection of the mob.
Judge Torquemada: Finally, something on which we agree. I never wanted to be anything more. I’m the sum total of what people believe they need, which is satisfaction delivered to them by the State.
Phil Robertson: If, tomorrow, people woke up, you’d just fall apart like dust.
Judge Torquemada: Ah, but you see, they won’t wake up. They don’t want to. They don’t want to be independent. Think about this. If the best that can be offered, in the way of a strong independent man, a hero, is you, a cartoon on a television show, then what chance is there that we’ll see a return to individual “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?”
Phil Robertson: I’m not trying to be a hero.
Judge Torquemada: For a few weeks, you were, to a fraction of the population. It was a tempest in a teacup. It’s over now. You have nowhere to go. That’s why I’m making my offer.
Phil Robertson: What offer?
Judge Torquemada: Why, to join us, of course. Work on the winning side. Expunge your sins. Take your place in the force that is shaping the new world.
Phil Robertson: Doing what?
Judge Torquemada: Speak on behalf of the poor, the suffering, the oppressed, the needy, the victims all around us.
Phil Robertson: My faith is in Jesus, and He speaks for the suffering in His way.
Judge Torquemada: Exactly. You want to express your deep faith? Do it in that fashion. Come back in the public eye as the defender of those who can’t defend themselves. Emphasize that part of your savior’s message. We really are in this together. You only have to see it. All that other misdirected action—throwing the money changers out of the temple, making accusations against the wicked, decrying evil—it’s unnecessary. By serving needs of the needy, and nothing else, all our goals are achieved.
Phil Robertson: I don’t decide what Jesus should or shouldn’t have done.
Judge Torquemada: Stop thinking in terms of deciding. That’s the old way. Just do what’s best for everybody.
[Robo-Stenographer 240s-vT2 note: At that moment, the room went dark. When the lights came back on, a few minutes later, both the Judge and the defendant were gone.]
Update: (AP) July 2, 2014: “The family of Duck Dynasty patriarch, Phil Robertson, has finally confirmed that Mr. Robertson went missing after a trip to Washington DC two months ago.
“This coincides with the national uproar stemming from an unconfirmed report that Mr. Robertson has shaved his beard, cut his hair, and has purchased a gay massage parlor in San Francisco.
“The scandal has exploded globally across websites, blogs, and tabloids. Even mainstream news outlets are carrying the story and reporting new developments on a daily basis.
“A gaggle of conspiracy theorists claim the unconfirmed massage-parlor-purchase report, which they call a blatant falsehood, came from a highly placed government source. White House Press Secretary Edward Bernays brushed aside these claims as speculative paranoia.
“‘Why would the government concern itself with such matters in the first place?’ he said. ‘Duck Dynasty? We’re talking about a television show. Some people like to imagine the government is forwarding a culture war. We have far more important issues to deal with. We serve the needs of the people of the United States. Furthermore, as the federal brain-mapping project reaches the end of its first stage, researchers have discovered that freedom is merely a series of neurochemical reactions, which can be switched on or off by an external operator…’”

The Monolith: How I put together The Matrix Revealed
by Jon Rappoport
December 6, 2013
I’ll get to The Monolith in a minute. It’s quite fascinating. First, here is the breakdown of materials in my collection, The Matrix Revealed:
250 megabytes of information.
Over 1100 pages of text.
Ten and a half hours of audio.
The 2 bonuses alone are rather extraordinary:
My complete 18-lesson course, LOGIC AND ANALYSIS, which includes the teacher’s manual and audio to guide you. I was previously selling the course for $375. This is a new way to teach logic, the subject that has been missing from schools for decades.
The complete text (331 pages) of AIDS INC., the book that exposed a conspiracy of scientific fraud deep within the medical research establishment. The book has become a sought-after item, since its publication in 1988. It contains material about viruses, medical testing, and the invention of disease that is, now and in the future, vital to our understanding of phony epidemics arising in our midst. I assure you, the revelations in the book will surprise you; they cut much deeper and are more subtle than “virus made in a lab” scenarios.
The heart and soul of this product are the text interviews I conducted with Matrix-insiders, who have first-hand knowledge of how the major illusions of our world are put together:
ELLIS MEDAVOY, master of PR, propaganda, and deception, who worked for key controllers in the medical and political arenas. 28 interviews, 290 pages.
RICHARD BELL, financial analyst and trader, whose profound grasp of market manipulation and economic-rigging is formidable, to say the least. 16 interviews, 132 pages.
JACK TRUE, the most creative hypnotherapist on the face of the planet. Jack’s anti-Matrix understanding of the mind and how to liberate it is unparalleled. His insights are unique, staggering. 43 interviews, 320 pages.
Then there are several more interviews with brilliant analysts of the Matrix. 53 pages.
The ten and a half hours of mp3 audio are my solo presentation, based on these interviews and my own research. Title: The Multi-Dimensional Planetary Chessboard—The Matrix Vs. the Un-Conditioning of the Individual.
In 1987, when I was researching my book, AIDS INC., I took a side road. It was prompted by a conversation I had with Jack True. He was telling me about experiences he’d had with his patients under hypnosis.
“Some patients present with a monolith,” he said. “They come across a symbol that is there in the subconscious. Sometimes it looks like a closed door. Sometimes it shows up as a blank wall. Sometimes it’s a geometric shape. One patient actually called it a ‘brick sky.’
“But in every case, it locked up the patient’s ability to recall or explore under hypnosis. It was like a giant obstruction on a road. However, these patients could describe something about the nature of the symbol. In every case, they said it was broadcasting a message: ‘THIS IS REALITY.’
“The patients were in awe of the symbol. It had a deep emotional effect on them. It was as if many different realities had come together to form this single mass, like separate pieces clicking into place.”
Jack went further. He stated that the symbol induced a profound passivity in his patients, as if they’d come upon a force greater than anything they could overcome.
Jack subsequently devised strategies to take apart the mass, the symbol, so that these patients could rid themselves of their passivity and access huge amounts of previously blocked energies.
Well, I was blown away, because my research on my book had followed a parallel course. I’ll explain.
The AIDS cover story that had been invented by medical researchers was all about One Reality, one disease condition caused by one virus, one description about how the infection destroyed the immune system, one label, one symbol for the condition: “AIDS”.
When, in fact, that was “the obstruction on the road” which was blocking further investigation. In fact, the whole “Oneness” myth was a lie. A gigantic lie.
A very, very convincing lie. An awesome lie.
The truth was, so-called AIDS was many different conditions (realities) which had been falsely welded together, through massive propaganda.
That was the key to unlocking the puzzle. And it was the key for me to move into new territory with new energy and confidence.
I’d been stalled at the wall, but now I could advance.
The awesome symbol, “AIDS,” had been shattered to pieces.
Since the publication of my book, I’ve of course investigated a number of other subjects, and in each case, there was a symbol, a monolith, an obstruction, and in every case I’ve taken the monolith apart to discover that it’s hiding a plurality of scandals and crimes and deceptions.
The One concealing The Many.
These monoliths are very, very effective because—and this is vitally important to understand—they mirror the tendency of the subconscious mind to fall to its knees before A Single Symbol, a Monolith.
People gravitate to single causes, single explanations, single symbols in every area of life, and they don’t penetrate further.
This is an aspect of the Matrix.
False unities are the meat and potatoes of very high-level propaganda. They are launched in politics, economics, organized religion, science, psychology, the military, mind control, in all the academic disciplines.
As an analogy, consider a painting in which the three-dimensional perspective has been radically shortened to eliminate the background. But the background is really where all the action is. The foreground is the false Oneness.
Grasping all of this allowed me to go further than I thought possible in putting together The Matrix Revealed. My method of investigation altered radically, and I hit paydirt.
The Matrix is a multi-layered, multi-dimensional operation, seeded with delusions that collaborate with the subconscious tendency to buy those delusions.
Your freedom and full power emerge when the subconscious is made conscious.

Part 8, How I put together The Matrix Revealed: psychokinesis
by Jon Rappoport
November 22, 2013
Here are the nuts and bolts of The Matrix Revealed. It is enormous in scope.
250 megabytes of information.
Over 1100 pages of text.
Ten and a half hours of audio.
The 2 bonuses alone are rather extraordinary:
My complete 18-lesson course, LOGIC AND ANALYSIS, which includes the teacher’s manual and audio to guide you. I was previously selling the course for $375. This is a new way to teach logic, the subject that has been missing from schools for decades. (Click here, for the detailed FAQ and Lesson Plan Outline).

The ten and a half hours of mp3 audio are my solo presentation, based on these interviews and my own research. Title: The Multi-Dimensional Planetary Chessboard—The Matrix Vs. the Un-Conditioning of the Individual.
Over the past couple of months, I’ve been describing threads that led me to put together The Matrix Revealed.
Here is another one, which came as a bolt from the blue, because it involved science. It demonstrates that true science can expose the ultimate fakery of the Matrix, while fake science bolsters the fraud.
About 12 years ago, I extensively interviewed Dean Radin, the author of a scientific classic, The Conscious Universe.
The interview confirmed and expanded on Radin’s published findings. Here is the most accurate statement I can make about those findings:
Studying the entire history of paranormal lab experiments; selecting from that published literature all well-formed and properly conducted studies; Radin discovered that the overall statistical evidence was clear: paranormal ability was demonstrated beyond the factor of chance or the rules of probability.
Many of these studies tested psychokinesis, the ability to influence matter with mind alone. In such studies, this ability exceeded chance or statistical probability as well.
Radin didn’t stop there. Having done the exhaustive research, and having published his findings, he reviewed the major criticisms leveled at him by other scientists, and he responded to their detailed analysis with convincing analysis of his own.
In a half-sane world, Radin’s book, The Conscious Universe, would have caused a widespread revolution.
That it didn’t merely testifies to the hidebound preconceptions and fears of scientific establishments and media outlets.
But the book did cause a stir with the public, and it most certainly registered with researchers who could keep an open attitude long enough to study Radin’s detailed work.
Here is one type of study that has been performed many times. Volunteers are placed before a case in which there are numerous holes and pegs. From the top, small balls are dropped downward. The volunteer is asked to try to mentally influence the paths of the balls, so more of them end up in holes to the left of center or right of center.
The case is built so that, normally, half the balls would come to rest in holes to the left of center, and half to the right.
Analyzing the entire range of such published studies, Radin concluded that random chance, probability, statistical expectation had been exceeded.
Overall, the efforts of the volunteers to influence matter with their minds had succeeded.
To put it broadly, the limits of reality are not what most people think they are. They extend beyond common consensus on what is possible.
The limits on us are not what most people think they are.
In his groundbreaking and shattering work, Radin met the challenge that many researchers sling at paranormal events: “If they exist at all, they’re not repeatable, so they mean nothing.”
Radin’s method, the meta-analysis of many, many well-performed studies, showed that repeatability was, in fact, present.
Outside the laboratory, there are events and instances of the paranormal all around us. We participate in them. We cause them.
Here is just one type of example. A person experiences some moment of physical discomfort. He then, essentially, “allows it to exist.” He refrains from resisting it. Or he consciously moves into a meditative or relaxed state.
However one wants to describe it, the result is instantaneous or nearly so: the discomfort vanishes.
On the other hand, and he can test this if he wants to suffer, he can fight the discomfort, and it remains or gets worse.
Of course, rank materialists will try to explain all this away by claiming that the cessation of discomfort was actually an automatic physical response of the body.
In truth, it is a voluntary choice.
Matrix propagandists always opt for ironclad reflex explanations. They always look for automatic chemical or biological processes.
What they never acknowledge—because it would topple and destroy the very foundation of their enterprise—is our capacity to direct non-material thought and, therefore, affect material events. Under no circumstances will they ever admit to this.
It’s, among other things, professional suicide.
Soon after interviewing Dean Radin, I spoke with a medical doctor about Radin’s findings. Naturally, without knowing a thing about it, the doctor rejected the whole field of paranormal inquiry.
So I did a little experiment with him. I asked him to notice, somewhere in his body, a sensation of any kind.
After some back and forth, he relented and told me there was a slight “fizzing sensation” in his leg.
I then told him to fight it, to push against it. Again, we had to discuss this, because the doctor refused to admit he understood what I was asking him to do.
But finally, he went along.
He said, “The fizzing increased.”
Then, I asked him to allow the sensation, to withdraw himself from it, to adopt a “hands-off” attitude.
He said, “It went away.”
I said, “So?”
What followed was a most amusing explanation, delivered from his authoritarian pulpit. He took almost five minutes. The technical jargon lost me almost immediately.
When he finished, I said, “You don’t really believe all that, do you?”
He stared at me like a machine that’s just had its circuits crossed.
“This is silly,” he finally said.
And it was.
A highly educated man, using his education to become an android.

Art is dangerous to authorities
by Jon Rappoport
November 20, 2013
Art is dangerous. It makes people move out of standard-response channels.
They don’t see what they’re supposed to see anymore. They see what they’re not supposed to see.
That’s why colleges teach brain-deadening courses in art history. Every attempt is made to codify the students’ reactions.
I’m not just talking about political art. I mean anything that truly comes out of reliance on imagination.
Those who run things—and their willing dupes—want reality to look a certain way and be experienced and felt in certain ways. These limited spectra form a shared lowest common denominator.
Even so-called spiritual experience is codified. It’s called organized religion. I call it “give money to the ceiling.” You give your money and they tell you high how the ceiling of your experience is and what you’ll find when you get there.
Art has none of these limitations. It’s created by people who’ve gone beyond the shrunken catalog of emotions, thoughts, and perceptions listed by authorities.
Art, by which I mean imagination, throws caution to the winds. It invents realities that engender new reactions, never before experienced. It blows apart old rigid perception.
The hammer blows and the soft propaganda of the common culture install layers of mind control: “See things, experience things in these prescribed ways.”
Over the years, I’ve encouraged a number of people to become artists. Aside from the work they then invented, I noticed their whole approach to, and perception of, life altered radically.
Their sense of vitality, their courage, their adventurous spirit came to the foreground.
Mind control, externally applied and self-induced, is all about putting a lid on creative power. That is its real target.
The one trap an artist—which is to say anyone who lives through and by imagination—has to avoid is thinking of himself as a victim because he is “an outsider.”
Outside is good. Outside has great strength.
When an artist invents himself as a victim, he then goes on to lash out at people who have nothing to do with the fate to which he’s consigned himself.
Authorities in any society, no matter what they call themselves, are invested in systems that will maintain a status quo of perception. They are constantly producing new systems for that purpose.
Technocrats would like you to believe that hooking your brain up to some super-brain computer will fulfill your needs and desires. They seek to prove that all invention, all creation, all art, all imagination is merely a set of calculations within a closed system.
This effort betrays their own despair. They see no way they can truly create.
It is the vacuum in which all elites live. They build up a frozen dead consciousness of models and algorithms and “solutions,” and they seek to impose it, as reality, on the minds of populations.
Essentially, they’re saying, “If we have a soul-sickness, you have to have it, too.”
It’s called hatred of life.
On the other hand, individual creative power launches from a platform of freedom and rises through layer after layer of greater freedom.
From that perspective, authoritarian power looks like a sick-unto-dying charade.

Insanity in the poisoned society
by Jon Rappoport
November 19, 2013
This article refers to GMO labeling, but also to toxic pharmaceuticals, harmful vaccines, and other chemical assaults on human health and life.
There is a myth that the free market wins out against all odds. The consumer decides. He buys what he wants, and doesn’t buy what he thinks is unhealthy. Pretty to think so, but false.
There is another factor at work.
It’s called: crime.
It’s a crime to poison people.
If you’re the CEO of a corporation which sells poison under any name, in any package, a state or federal attorney should have your ass in court, and then in jail. For a long time.
Label the poison products as “different?” That’s a stop-gap measure which comes after the failure to prosecute. It’s a solution put together with scotch tape and paper clips, and anyone who fails to realize that is sound asleep.
Ballot initiatives to demand GMO labeling of food? Okay. But without also accusing corporations of selling poison (GMOs, Roundup)? Clueless. Ridiculous.
Unless…you really had a free market. If you destroyed any and all government enforcement-support and funding and phony praise of Pharma, big biotech, and other chemical companies, if you instituted a Wild West out there, a free-for-all, where anybody could sell anything and label it anything, then you might see some interesting results.
People dropping like flies, illness spreading like pools and lakes of cyanide, citizens gunning down sellers and purveyors and CEOs.
Then consumer choice would take on a whole new meaning.
But in this world, the one we live in, have you seen a single Big Pharma CEO put in prison for 50 years after killing thousands of people with a drug he sells relentlessly? A drug which he knows causes death?
Of course not. He pays a billion-dollar fine, after already making $30 billion on the drug, and he promises to straighten up and fly right.
If his factory releases toxic chemicals into the ground and water, causing cancers, he fights in court for years and ends up paying a settlement to families.
This is the sickening truth. And make no mistake, it is the government that protects and supports and bows down to these vicious criminals.
The government already runs its own labeling operation on pharmaceuticals. As skewed as it is, it’s supposed to give the consumer information he can use to make a choice.
But every year in the US, by the most conservative mainstream measure, those drugs kill 106,000 people. That’s over a million deaths per decade. (See Dr. Barbara Starfield, “Is US Health Really the Best in the World?”, July 26, 2000, Journal of the American Medical Association.)
Would you work in a campaign to force drug companies and government to provide more accurate labeling information, unless that campaign aggressively attacked the corporations and government for supporting and protecting poisoners?
And why would you even need to launch that attack in the first place?
Because the Justice Department is a criminal racket that protects sellers of poison.
They’re an active partner in a kill-and-maim operation.
Take off the sugar coating and look at the truth.
So when a worker for one of the GMO labeling ballot campaigns comes to me, whining and complaining and screaming, because I criticize the leaders of the movement, I know I’m talking to a person for whom the label, “political amateur,” would be a massive compliment. That person is entirely clueless.
Good intentions don’t add up to victories.
Here is what these willing and idealistic people are told by their leaders, if you scrape away the PR and get to the bottom line: “We want you to work for us so we can get a ballot measure passed. Now, we’re not going to attack the bad guys who poison people every day. We’re never going to do that. We just want to give the consumer a choice when he buys food. That’s all. We want to get along. We’re coexisting with corporate agriculture. Get used to it.”
Insanity.
Imagine you live in a community where killers are on the loose. You know a big company on the hill is sending these men down your way to commit their heinous crimes.
But the local government denies the existence of this operation. They say the evidence is inconclusive.
Now you get an idea. You’re going to certify all the non-killers in the neighborhood. They will wear badges labeled “safe.” Any person not wearing a badge in public should assiduously avoided.
Your community (non-government) leaders tell you, “We’re not going to criticize the company on the hill. We’re not going to build a crescendo of outrage that will push the company against the wall. We’re not going to march on the mayor’s office and demand he arrest the CEO. We’re just going to associate with the ‘safes.’ We’ll only have ‘safes’ as friends.”
What does that mean? It means you’re going to erect a bubble and live inside it and hope that the killers will stay away from what you call safe.
