A farmer, tired of rats destroying his crops and stealing his grain, came up with a clever but cruel plan. He threw a dead pig into a deep, abandoned well. Attracted by the smell, nearly 80 rats rushed into the well to feast on the carcass. At first, everything seemed wonderful. There was more than enough food for everyone, and the rats ate until they were satisfied.
But when the food was gone, they discovered something terrifying. The walls of the well were too steep to climb. They were trapped. Days passed, and hunger turned into desperation. Desperation turned into aggression. The rats that had once eaten peacefully beside one another began fighting for survival. Eventually, they began killing and eating each other.
One by one, their numbers dwindled until only a single rat remained. Its eyes were bloodshot, and it had survived by consuming its own kind. Then the farmer returned, lowered a rope into the well, and rescued the last surviving rat. But he didn't save it out of kindness or compassion.
The farmer knew the rat had learned to survive by hunting other rats. When he released it into his fields, it would continue killing its own kind instead of eating his grain. The farmer had turned his enemy into his greatest weapon.
And that is the lesson of divide and conquer. Those who control the trap don't need to fight the battles themselves. They simply create the conditions in which others turn against one another.
The rats believed their enemies were the other rats. They never realized that the true enemy was the farmer who had put them there.
The greatest danger isn't always the enemy standing in front of you. Sometimes it's the one who created the conflict and stands quietly watching you destroy each other.
Before you turn against your neighbor because of their political beliefs, ask yourself who benefits from keeping Americans divided. While we fight each other over Republican and Democrat, we may be overlooking those who profit from the conflict. Perhaps the real question isn't which side you're on, but who built the well—and why they want us fighting at the bottom of it.

Reminder of the contents of Russell Brand’s children’s book The Pied Piper of Hamelin packed full of creepy, satanic references. Anybody buying his Christian cover story needs to give their head a wobble. Recorded three years ago.
@Olieka1@rioferdy5 Anyone that thinks that Rio Ferdinand (once of England and of Man U) has any sort of intelligence at all might need to consider their own intellect and empathy. Nothing to be sorry about. Let's be realistic, He's WEF as is David Beckham. That should be a primary consideration
How long is the stench of the “sham” going to corrode the meaning, worth, and very essence of the Premier League?
Listening to commentary about Manchester City’s players matching the defiance of their ownership and triumphing in adversity.
Listening to fans chorusing the names of the men running the club, wearing masks or displaying banners of their faces and jibing: “We’re Man City, we’ll cheat when we want.”
Victory being framed as “a lovely moment,” a show of togetherness as though some grave injustice has been imposed on City, rather than their hierarchy being found by an independent commission to have orchestrated financial doping on an industrial scale.
Their opponents and the rest of us wondering if any of this actually matters now and how much of it ever did?
There can be no business as usual pretence. We need a full stop to the absurdity.
You still think the world ISN'T run from one center?
Kim Jong Un, ruler of the most "isolated" country on Earth, went to school in Switzerland. Under a fake name. Minutes from Bern.
Bashar al-Assad trained as an eye doctor in London.
Xi Jinping's daughter studied at Harvard under a pseudonym.
Pol Pot studied in Paris. So did Deng Xiaoping and Zhou Enlai.
The "enemies of the West" keep getting shaped in the West.
Now look at the "friends."
Macron. Jacinda Ardern. Sanna Marin. All WEF Young Global Leaders, picked BEFORE they ran their countries.
Merkel and Blair? Both in the WEF's "Global Leaders for Tomorrow" class of 1993. Years before either took power.
Klaus Schwab said it out loud at Harvard in 2017:
"We penetrate the cabinets."
His words. On camera.
The kings and emirs of Jordan, Qatar and Brunei all trained at ONE British military academy: Sandhurst.
Bill Clinton and three Australian prime ministers went through ONE scholarship, created by the will of Cecil Rhodes.
Imran Khan, Benazir Bhutto, Indira Gandhi, Aung San Suu Kyi, Viktor Orbán: all Oxford.
Shahs, princes and kings: Le Rosey, Switzerland. They literally call it "the school of kings."
And every year since 1954, around 130 politicians, bankers and CEOs meet behind closed doors at Bilderberg. No press. No minutes. No statement.
Meanwhile the world's central bankers gather every two months in Basel, at a bank whose building Swiss police cannot enter.
Different flags.
Different anthems.
Different "ideologies."
Same schools. Same clubs. Same rooms.
They fight on your screen and dine at the same table.
You were told these are coincidences.
How many coincidences does it take before you call it a system? Follow the classrooms, not the flags.
Every single cell of my body is horrified by this.
The baby is like a puppy or a doll to him.
There is no evidence of oxytocin making him want to nurture this baby.
You know why?
Because oxytocin when secreted in males brings forth a playful instinct not a nurturing instinct as with mothers.
Fathers are not mothers and never will be or can be. Being gay doesn’t change that. Being trans doesn’t change that.
The male body interacts differently with oxytocin.
This is damage in real time.
Every Parent should watch this video.
Now I understand why that father followed his daughters to the toilet despite the backlash he faced.
We live in very dark times
A Florida man found a legal loophole to block a Flock surveillance camera using a 12-foot-tall protest sign.
77-year-old Carl Gunn legally blocks a Flock license plate camera in St. Petersburg, Florida, by sitting on a public sidewalk and holding a 12-foot pool skimmer pole with a “DOWN WITH FLOCK CAMERAS” sign. Because he remains on public property and never touches the equipment, police confirmed his protest is lawful.
This is Mervin Raudabaugh, an American farmer who turned down $15M to build a data center on his land. Instead, he sold it for $2M to a farmland trust to protect it as agricultural land forever.
