Do you see it, yet..?
"One of the leading lights in furthering the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party was none other than Prescott Bush, father to George Herbert Walker Bush and grandfather to G.W. Bush, both future presidents and G.W. H. Bush as head of the CIA. These war criminals have maintained their popularity among right-wing Americans mostly due to a compliant media that has obscured their Nazi-loving history from the populace at large."
My name is Simon, I am unvaccinated. And for that, they branded me.
They called me selfish and dangerous, and labelled me a "Grandma KiIIer."
They stripped away my rights to work, travel, access hospitals, and even shop for groceries, all because I stood firm in my right to bodily integrity. It reached a point where there were Twitter users actually advocating for my death and it was me who got suspended from this platform and not them.
I was eventually proven right. But rather than admitting their wrongs, these perpetrators just brazenly moved onto the next topic: climate change!
But I won't let them get away with it and will remind them daily of their shameful deeds and their own words, because I don't want to wake up in a 15-minute city owning nothing and eating bugs.
Cheers!
Revolution is not something any politically mature person who understands how it works in practice shouts on social media, publicly, in recorded and monitored broadcasts, let alone announces it as a title of a twitter space.
Revolution is something you either work quietly towards behind the scenes, in private meetings with no mobile devices present, or forget about and you remain quiet about.
It is not a game. It is not a joke. It is not something that others will do simply because you proclaim it. Given the potential repercussions, I think it is important that people understand that it is pointless to shout things like revolution publicly on social media platforms, and much wiser to instead consider the holistic situation, including realistic feasibility, cultural and political sustainability, response from authorities, etc. and how misleading it is to others to be shouting things when there is no planning, follow through, or teeth. It is in fact both naïve and deceptive for others to be inevitably led down the garden path in the arms of the revenge of repressive authorities, in traps like January 6th at the Capitol Building in Washington.
It is in my view much better to remain silent on things that can't be delivered and followed through. Words without actions can only lead to alerting authorities to find ways to silence you and remove your current freedom on trumped up charges.
Sometimes it is best to remain silent, and some conversations should only take place offline.
And if it was instead direct democracy you wanted to talk about, then don't call it revolution, or pretend that is not what you originally called it.
And if you can't translate your words to actions, just don't use them in that way.
The societal changes that are truly culturally sustainable in the long term are hardly ever revolutions, they are inclusive evolutions based on bottom up cultural change, largely based around inspiring cultural ideas and productions that seep through and imbue the entire fabric of society in an irresistible way.
How Belief in Science Stripped Morality from Truth
If we go back before Descartes, what do we have?
We have Christianity. And in Christianity, truth was understood as a belief in a certain set of moral teachings as codified in very specific books.
That was the truth: it’s there, it’s written out, it has to do with morality. And what has that been replaced with?
It has been replaced with the belief that truth is science. Now what has changed there?
What has changed there is that actually something went missing. We lost something along the way. And what is it?
It’s morality.
You see what happened?
Where is the morality inherent in science or in what we consider science?
There is none, as such.
So in this passage from the belief in Christianity to the belief in science, we’ve done away with morality and I don’t think that was accidental. We are holding onto these beliefs of control.
Eugenics for example, was born with scientific so-called progress, this belief that there are biologically superior beings than others, and therefore we can dispense with those that are inferior. The same thing with races. I know a lot of people try and argue that’s not what he meant, but in the subtitle of The Origin of the Species by Darwin, he writes: The Preservation of Favoured Races. Yes, he means it in a biological sense, but it’s all there in a subliminal sense. It’s all already there. It’s all setting the world up for eugenics, which is basically a form of, of control over other humans. And that is what happens when you dispense with morality altogether. I think we should consider turning it on its head from the start. I think we should think that evidence was maybe the wrong place to put our hopes in truth.
We talked about the film that I produced called The Book of Vision, which is about modern medicine turning the human into an an object, or a set of objects, which are the organs, and it’s almost as if what we did with evidence is this: we’ve objectified truth. So truth doesn’t exists but in an object, and the object is the evidence. That’s what Descartes has done. In parallel, what we try and address in the film, The Book of Vision, is that that it is not where truth lives. It’s not in objects as such, and it’s actually in certain practices that as humans, we actually do. Not necessarily truth arriving, but truth searching. In Christianity that was turned into some monastic practices of stripping away superfluous things: asceticism. You’d strip away the superfluous, you’d look within, and you’d find that moral core within you that you could really tune into, and then you would become a purified being. That was very much directed toward the self because the external truth had almost already been decided in certain books.
Now, I’m not saying that that’s where we should go back to. I’m saying that should be as important as anything that we can see as science. The whole history of cultural, moral teachings as codified in in religious books is just as important as anything we call science. One has not supplanted the other, one is not better than the other, as we’ve been presented. First of all, I would say put those on the same level, at least, if not actually, on a different one. Let’s practice these together so that we don’t go back into the same kind of to and fro, because in a way science came because the codified books became too restrictive, and then science becomes too restrictive. I’m not saying that we should just go back to the codified books, then we’re just going to end up with science again, which I don’t want.
I’m saying let’s go even further back and let’s look at Ancient Greece and let’s look at what happened there in the dialogues, the Socratic dialogues, and in the practice of speaking to each other and speaking truth. Truth-telling, or free speech, which is a practice they had a word for: parresia. That was quite fundamental for democracy: that this was a practice that actually took place, this free speech. The person who speaks freely, they know they speak the truth. It’s difficult for us to understand because we are so caught up in the Cartesian view that you need evidence, that we find it difficult to understand that at the time they had an idea of truth, and it was not linked to evidence. They would probably laugh at you if you would bring an object and say: “This in my evidence!” Someone’s right if they say this in my evidence? They would laugh at you because they would say: “No, you, you’ve got to fight this yourself!” Following your own sense of what’s truthful, meaning moral truth, not relying on, secondhand notions.
We turned it on its head, but back then you knew that you were speaking the truth because you really felt it. Because what you spoke coincided with a kind of moral self, set within yourself, and coming from a moral culture outside of you, much older than modern science.

SIGNS CLIMATE DECLARATION:
THERE IS NO CLIMATE EMERGENCY ‐ CLAUSER & a global network of over 1,609 scientists and professionals has prepared this urgent message:
Natural as well as anthropogenic factors cause warming
The geological archive reveals that Earth’s climate has varied as long as the planet has existed, with natural cold and warm phases. The Little Ice Age ended as recently as 1850. Therefore, it is no surprise that we now are experiencing a period of warming.
Warming is far slower than predicted
The world has warmed significantly less than predicted by IPCC on the basis of modeled anthropogenic forcing. The gap between the real world and the modeled world tells us that we are far from understanding climate change.
Climate policy relies on inadequate models
Climate models have many shortcomings and are not remotely plausible as global policy tools. They blow up the effect of greenhouse gases such as CO2. In addition, they ignore the fact that enriching the atmosphere with CO2 is beneficial.
CO2 is plant food, the basis of all life on Earth
CO2 is not a pollutant. It is essential to all life on Earth. Photosynthesis is a blessing. More CO2 is beneficial for nature, greening the Earth: additional CO2 in the air has promoted growth in global plant biomass. It is also good for agriculture, increasing the yields of crops worldwide.
Global warming has not increased natural disasters
There is no statistical evidence that global warming is intensifying hurricanes, floods, droughts and suchlike natural disasters, or making them more frequent. However, there is ample evidence that CO2-mitigation measures are as damaging as they are costly.
Climate policy must respect scientific and economic realities
There is no climate emergency. Therefore, there is no cause for panic and alarm. We strongly oppose the harmful and unrealistic net-zero CO2 policy proposed for 2050. If better approaches emerge, and they certainly will, we have ample time to reflect and re-adapt. The aim of global policy should be ‘prosperity for all’ by providing reliable and affordable energy at all times. In a prosperous society men and women are well educated, birthrates are low and people care about their environment."
10k military-age men storm an Italian island in a span of 3 days, outnumbering the 6k who live there
This is happening all across the West but on a more subtle scale. Western civilization as we know it will be gone within a generation.
I’m very grateful that alert and fast-acting protectors from Gavin de Becker and Associates (GDBA) spotted and detained an armed man who attempted to approach me at my Hispanic Heritage speech at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles tonight. The man, wearing two shoulder holsters with loaded pistols and spare ammunition magazines was carrying a U.S. Marshal badge on a lanyard and beltclip federal ID. He identified himself as a member of my security detail. Armed GDBA team members moved quickly to isolate and detain the man until LAPD arrived to make the arrest. I’m also grateful to LAPD for its rapid response.
I’m still entertaining a hope that President Biden will allow me Secret Service protection. I am the first presidential candidate in history to whom the White House has denied a request for protection.
