The Continuation of the Project for a New American Century

1984c.jpg

Back in September 2000, the neocon/Zionist think tank, Project for New American Century (PNAC), published a 90 page report called "Rebuilding America's Defenses - Strategy, Forces, and Resources for a New Century." PNAC was founded by neocon/Zionists William Kristol and Robert Kagan and included many of the neocons that infested the Bush administration starting in 2001.

The gist of the report and in keeping with their 1997 "founding principles" was that the U.S. should rule the world ("seek to preserve and extend its position of global leadership") by using the biggest and baddest military machine money can buy ("maintaining the preeminence of U.S. military forces.") The plan was for the Bush administration to commence a ten year plan to significantly upgrade U.S. military, intelligence and security programs and increase the national budget required to do it. They admitted they had a tough row to hoe convincing the American people however and made the most amazingly coincidental prediction in the annals of think tank recommendations.

"Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor."

One year later on September 11, 2001, they got their new Pearl Harbor and the United States Empire embarked on a ten year "defense" budget spree to accompany three wars, the Afghanistan war, the Iraq war, the War OF Terror, and a Nazi like Homeland Security police state for Die Homeland.

That ended with the Budget Control Act of 2011 and the required budget "sequestration" which began in 2013, an austerity fiscal policy supposedly to decrease the budget deficit by 2021. Defense, intelligence and related programs were not exempted which of course the republicans have moaned and groaned about since. Prior to the previous election, the Joint Chiefs of Staff were out on the congressional hearing and oligarchy media circuits complaining about how the sequestration has severely impeded their respective service's ability to militarily rule the world. Now that the republicans are in charge, the dogs are loose again.

Of course, they would have been if Hillary Clinton had been elected, no doubt about that. Ruling the world is a completely bipartisan project.

The bipartisan budget bill Congress passed and Trump signed into law begins a Phase Two of "Rebuilding America's Defenses" with much the same overall goal of a ten year plan to greatly increase the budget of defense, intelligence and homeland security programs so they can continue their quest for their New World Order. That can only mean more war, killing and destruction. It will be combined with a ten year plan to decimate, privatize and pulverize all domestic federal government programs, particularly the "entitlement" programs.

Think about what has happened since 9/11/01. Now think about what could happen in the next ten to fifteen years. Not just what could happen, what the ruling class is TELLING us WILL happen.

This time they don't need another "new Pearl Harbor" because they've already made it clear the United States government and those that control it (you can say "we" if you want to, but I won't) are in a "great power struggle" now with Russia and China. They are at the final stage of the plan for the New American Century, taking on the two primary challengers to American global hegemony. The "Main Event". The American public appears so docile now they don't even need a fucking false flag event. All they have to do is wave North Korea, Russia and China in front of their faces, while they're watching the Winter Olympics from South Korea, and Americans will pay their taxes for imperialism to the unconstitutional Internal Revenue Service without a whimper.

Ya, it's insane, it's always been insane, but it's true.

They're doing exactly what many of us have said for years they would do, taking the final steps toward global hegemony while turning this country into a fascist military police state.

Many saw it coming, heard of George Orwell?

"The deal, which reached Trump’s desk only because of support from congressional Democrats, expresses the oligarchic character of American society. Behind the factional mudslinging and mutual recrimination between Democrats, Republicans and Trump, it is the corporations and the military-intelligence agencies that dictate government policy. All sections of the financial aristocracy agree: the desperate social needs of working people must be subordinated to private profit and the preparation of the American military machine for a major war.

The budget agreement provides the military with $1.4 trillion over the course of the next two years, a 13 percent increase from 2017 and 7 percent more than what the White House requested. The size of the year-to-year increase alone—$80 billion—is larger than the combined annual military spending of every other country in the world except China.

An additional $71 billion is earmarked for “overseas contingency operations,” i.e., ongoing wars, indicating plans to continue indefinitely the 17-year-old war in Afghanistan and escalate the war in Syria, where US air and artillery strikes killed over 100 Syrian government-backed forces on Wednesday."

http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2018/02/10/pers-f10.html

Oh, they also allocated 20 billion for infrastructure spending. Most no doubt to go to large corporations while the half a trillion needed continues to be ignored. Further evidence Trump is just a joke and our political system is a farce that only represents the one percent oligarchy.

The budget deficit will only increase because of the military spending, i.e., the insane quest for world hegemony, to over one trillion per year setting the stage for social program austerity, going after Social Security and Medicare primarily. They're flat out telling us what comes next, unless they're stopped.

"At his weekly press conference, Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan reiterated his pledge to wage war on entitlement programs. "The military is not the reason we've got fiscal problems. It is entitlements."

"After signing the budget bill on Friday, Trump said the social spending in the agreement was “waste.” He added that “costs on non-military lines will never come down if we do not elect more Republicans in the 2018 election and beyond.”

What was that stuff about Medicare for All, Improved? That seems so long ago now. In a different day, a different age. Now the plan is to try to elect enough "progressives" to the democratic party who support Medicare for All, Improved, so that some day, in the far distant future and a galaxy far, far away, the Congress of the United States of America will enact it. Ya, right.

The only way it's going to happen is if the people of this country get to decide.

Because make no mistake, this was a bipartisan budget deal between the duopoly political parties. There is no difference when it comes to imperialism and war, Wall Street and who they really represent. The United States is not a democracy, never has been and is completely controlled by the super-rich and the systems and institutions they own.

This is some serious shit. The next ten years are going to be brutal.

What are the options for those of us who want justice from those ruling us?

There's the political system. Voting and trying to influence our so called representatives by calling or emailing them, signing petitions or protesting in the streets. But that doesn't work because both major political parties are completely owned by the oligarchy and the political system allows no chance for third parties to challenge their power.

"The Democrats have only disdain for those who sought to pressure them to the left. Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown said of constituents who appealed to him to vote against the budget deal,

“If the suggestion is if I’m spooked by them or they affect my voting record, the answer is of course not.”

The only chance appears to be an organized movement of some kind outside of the election system with the primary purpose of changing this political system into one that does represent the people and removing the sociopaths and psychopaths from power. Perhaps a global working class movement against global oligarchy and rule by the rich. Perhaps an antiwar/anti-imperialism movement either nationally and/or internationally. Something has to be organized outside of this political system of electing so called representatives to challenge the power of the "ruling class". It should be an absolute given that trying to elect different politicians to the two oligarchy controlled political parties is not going to make a dent.

If not, they're telling us what will happen, just like they told us in 2000, and it doesn't look good at all.

@The Aspie Corner has to come down. What should replace it is debatable but there's no debating the consequences we're facing now. Just read an article this morning from the Financial Times, an oligarchy controlled capitalist publication that warned about the increasing wealth inequality with absolutely zero efforts from our government to confront, only to perpetuate and accelerate like with the recent taxscam bill and now this new budget. The ruling class knows the deal, they've always known the deal, but they damn sure aren't going to stop their gravy train, or even slow it down.

get even a glimpse of the America he writes about in his 1984? Turns out he was off by 16 years, or so, but there's no doubt the fruits of his dystopian nightmare started in 1984 if not before. But 1949? When the book was written? The post-war years were pretty good, WWII vets moving into the 'burbs, people buying much newer cars... life was good. Yet out pops 1984. Strange. And stranger still practically dead nuts. I need to read again, haven't read since college.

their new Pearl Harbor. 9/11 was no kwinkidink, was an Inside Job, just as many books have illustrated. The FBI, NSA had known, of course, about the impending "attack," having intercepted communikays re. same. "Ace Elevator" had been in the building for weeks before 9/11 "upgrading" the elevators (that were installed by Otis). Those elevators allowing techs to wire the building with explosives. You just know Kristol and the PNAC crowd were rubbing their (hands) with glee as the towers came down, G. Dubya announcing their perpetual "War on Terra." Exspurts agree that airliner fuel could not reach temps high enough to weaken the steel in that building to the significance required to drop it like a rock. No way, no how. Eventually unaffected steel on the lower floors stopping those upper floors in their tracks. Terrists didn't wire the buildings for implosion, Deep State did. What PNAC wanted - a new Pearl Harbor - Deep State obliged. 9/11 was an inside job. The job needed to accomplish Kristol's wet dream.

2300 claim inside job

Granted, anyone can make any claims, we could trade opposing views all day long.
One is going to eventually come to his or her own conclusions.
I personally have never been a "9/11 Truther," thought it was b.s., it never could have been pulled off. Then was exposed the announcement on British tv that WTC 7 had fallen - 20 minutes before it had. Makes one go hmmmm... Then, the fire never got to 1100F, was closer to 800F.
Anyway... my conclusion is the 9/11 Truthers are right. This was an inside job, or an incredible, unbelievable Terrist job. Your mileage may vary.

@Wink @Wink

are comprised mostly of students, without degrees, mostly in engineering fields unrelated to structure, like electrical, computer, bio, civil, chemical, environmental. I've browsed the list and verified that.

Engineers and architects design buildings; demolition professionals bring them down. Still, there are many architects and engineers who agree with the demolition professionals that because demolitions require access to critical support structure, requiring extensive removal of internal constructions, buildings need to be completely emptied of all other activities, including all regular business, security and maintenance, for weeks prior, and require the full cooperation (and in this case, including their eternal silence) of all security and maintenance management and staff, and nothing even close to that happened at any WTC building.

That does not rule out a conspiracy to allow or even assist a "new Pearl Harbor". It just rules out organized building demolitions, other than large fuel-laden aircraft, having been a part of it.

It has always amazed me that Occam's razor can apply to so much ... but somehow not to 9-11.

Did certain people "look the other way" while terrorists plotted the 9-11 attack? Quite possibly. That would have been enough to get their "Pearl Harbor" moment. The collapse of the WTC buildings was lagniappe.

Like the Kennedy assassination the -ahem- 9/11 "investigation" was left to those that likely committed the crime. The fact that there still are "Truthers" out there strongly suggests the "facts" of 9/11 are horse$h!t, or that these people have too much time on their hands. And, like the Kennedy assassination we'll still be talking about 9/11 - and attempts to end the by then 67 year war - 50 years from now. That PNAC and the Cons needed a "Pearl Harbor Moment," and one just happened by in the form of the 9/11 attack, has to be the biggest kiwinkidink of all time.

@Wink Several good points emerge from this, whether or not one agrees with the general thesis.

1. Criticizing Zionists is no more anti-semitism than criticizing Nazis is anti-Germanicism.
2. Balkanization of the Near-Middle East is well underway. Some of this may be desirable in one sense, as the boundaries crafted by the self-serving, dying British empire at the end of WW2 were a complete fiction of ethnoreligious and cultural realities pre-existing the war.

In regard to one point, it was my belief that Marvin Bush, dubya's brother, was in charge of WTC 1 and WTC 2 security, not the entity which Bollyn mentioned.

One clear memory of mine

is sitting in my crappy upper flat on that evening, in tears, watching footage of the collapses and thinking, "Some people unfamiliar with the physics of compression will mistakenly think that debris ejected out of windows by air pressure is from planted explosives." Still, I never dreamed it would start a movement that just won't accept reason. The sad outcome is that it serves as distraction from and ridicule for investigating what level of involvement the neocons in power actually had in 9/11.

At a time like that, watching a horrendous disaster in process, in tears over the appalling deaths of thousands of people, the shocked mind may well attempt to minify the impact by taking comfort in technicalities.

However, that aspect, like others, (virtually everything to do with 9/11 leading to questions - and/or proven to have been highly profitable to some while stripping wealth and power from the American public and many others - in myriad ways, as with the Clintons, PNAC, etc.) has been comprehensively addressed and needs to be considered in light of what the incident was used to 'justify': The War On The World.

Investigations such as these have been initiated precisely due to the refusal of those in authority to do so themselves, or even to retain essential evidence from the scene of the crime for one to be conducted, and distraction in plenty has been supplied by those connected with such as the PNAC, et al, agenda or whose careers/income may depend upon supporting the official story and/or denigrating those questioning it.

Illustrations provided at source, from video of the event, demonstrate the points made below; I'll highlight the captions from these, so as to differentiate them from the main text. But I feel that these need to be pretty much in our faces, so that we have to go a little bit out of our way to not see them.

http://www.ae911truth.org/news/355-faq-5-what-caused-the-ejections-of-du...

FAQ #5: What Caused the Ejections of Dust and Debris in the Twin Towers?

Clusters of horizontal ejections raced down the North Tower, at times accelerating faster than debris was falling outside the building.

EXPLOSIONS THE ONLY RATIONAL EXPLANATION FOR SQUIBS

By John-Michael Talboo
squibs Images like this one reveal that the squibs were not merely puffs of air, for they have the same hue and consistency as pulverized solid building materials.

Question
What caused the "squibs"? Could they have been just puffs of dust being pushed out of the World Trade Center Twin Towers by falling floors? Are they visual evidence of explosive charges?

Answer
The isolated ejections 20-60 stories below the demolition front appear to be composed of pulverized building materials, including concrete. There was no known mechanism by which building materials being pulverized at the zone of destruction could have been transported so far down through the inside of the building and to the exterior. Air conditioning vents would not have tolerated such pressures, and there was no other "channel" in the building to deliver “compressed air.”

squibs Multiple analyses have shown that the ejection speed of the squibs was too high, at 100+ mph, to have been the result of air pressure. These are explosive speeds. They have also been clocked at 160 to 200 feet per second.

There is no reason, on the “dust puff” theory, for such blasts to be as isolated as they were. Massive air pressure which would have been delivered by the (missing) “pile driver” down through the elevator hoistways and out through a given floor would have broken most or all windows on that floor — not created the highly focalized pinpoint ejections seen on the videos. The breakage of one or two windows on a given floor would not have relieved enough pressure across an entire floor area to prevent the breakage of many other windows nearby.

squibs _fox_news The squibs identified in the WTC videos occurred 20, 40, and 60 stories below the destruction wave.

Another problem with the “dust puff” theory is that the pulverized building materials would not have been transported so quickly. Air would have been pushed ahead of such materials, resulting in transparent puffs of air flowing through the freshly broken windows.

nist-photo-release-explosion Video evidence has revealed that violent ejections occurred before the North Tower began its descent.

Physicist David Chandler has also shown that some of these ejections came from the corners of the buildings. Since there are no windows on the corners, these ejections could not have been the result of air pressure.

Furthermore, calculations performed by Dr. Crockett Grabbe show that the horizontal ejection rate of the squibs is disproportional to the floor and debris descent speeds that are allegedly responsible for them. As Kevin Ryan has shown, the ejection speed of the squibs from the towers also matches the speeds recorded for ejections caused by explosives.

As to these ejections appearing only after the collapse initiation, it should be noted that the North Tower's antenna dropped before any other building movement is seen, which is evidence that demolition devices were working on the core before any squibs were seen emerging out of the perimeter walls. There is also video showing that some of these ejections occurred even before the collapses began. See Visible Explosion at World Trade Center and WTC 1 collapse initiation — visible signs.

horizontal_ejection_clusters Close examination of network video shows clusters of horizontal ejections racing down the North Tower, at times accelerating faster than debris is falling outside the building.

The fact that ridicule has long been used as a standard 'message control' method by corporate industry/TPTB and their lackeys should not stop us from questioning implausible and destructively self-serving narratives. Or from demanding independent investigation on matters of potential fraud and affecting our lives, our basic, human/Constitutional rights, and our deaths.

(Sorry you're stuck in a crappy upper flat, though; a lot of us can empathize.)

@Ellen North
I leave some doubt for the non-believing scientists and engineers, but having witnessed a routine building drop from a few blocks away in downtown Rottenchester, in the mid-'70s, the towers dropping into their own footprint looked exactly like that. The four or 5 story bldg. in Rottenchester took about 2-3 seconds to drop, over so quick your jaw dropped in amazement. I still hold some doubt for the sentiment held by science people that this somehow was a normal fall, but my eyes tell me otherwise. There just are Way too many hanging chads for this drop to be normal.

A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE COLLAPSE OF WTC TOWERS 1, 2 & 7 FROM AN EXPLOSIVES AND CONVENTIONAL DEMOLITION INDUSTRY VIEWPOINT
by Jim Hoffman

The article critiqued here, A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE COLLAPSE OF WTC TOWERS 1, 2 & 7 FROM AN EXPLOSIVES AND CONVENTIONAL DEMOLITION INDUSTRY VIEWPOINT , is one of several technical articles defending official explanations of the total collapses of the World Trade Center towers published shortly before the fifth anniversary of the 9/11/2001 attack.

Following publication of Blanchard's article, The National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) published its Answers to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ). Whereas NIST relies heavily on the straw-man technique, primarily highlighting claims based on fallacies, Blanchard appears to address several serious arguments against the official explanations. However, he fails to articulate these arguments and skirts them with replies laced with fallacies.

Blanchard's article, published on August 8, 2006, may have grown out of inquiries such as this letter by Greg Henricks. ...

EXPLOSIVE TESTIMONY! / MacQueen NYFD 9/11 witnesses
Yoryevrah

Published on 14 Jun 2007

Graeme MacQueen, Founding Director of the Centre for Peace Studies (McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario) reads testimony from New York Fire Dept. firefighters:
Angel Rivera: "When we hit the 19th floor, something horrendous happened. It was like a bomb went off. We thought we were dead. The whole building shook."

NYFD Asst. Commissioner Stephen Gregory: I thought that I saw...low level flashes...I saw flash-flash-flash, and then it looked like the building came down. You know like when they blow up a building, when it falls down? That's what I thought I saw."
Firefighter Daniel Rivera: "At first I thought it was... Do you ever see professional demolition where they set the charges on certain floors and then you hear, 'pop-pop-pop-pop-pop'? That's exactly what, because I thought it was that, when I heard that frigging noise, that's when I saw the building coming down."
NYFD Captain Karin Deshore: "Somewhere around the middle of the World Trade Center there was this orange and red flash coming out. Initially it was just one flash. Then this flash kept popping, all the way around the building, and that building had started to explode." The New York City Fire Department, under the direction of Fire Commissioner Tom Von Essen, collected the testimony of 503 first-responder EMTs, Port Authority police, and firefighters. It came to 12,000 pages. The 9/11 Commission, run by White House appointee and insider, Philip Zelikow, rejected the testimony, just ignored it, not germane to the foregone conclusion. Also, somewhat explosive. This film was made for the Vancouver 9/11 Conference, June 22-24, 2007 and presented there by snowshoefilms. (part 2 of...?) yoryevrah

There are other groups of experts addressing different areas of the PNAC, et al, story.

And while I know nothing of this site, much of the material here is familiar to us all:

http://www.oldamericancentury.org/pnac.htm

Their Goal: The neoconservative agenda

Established in the spring of 1997 and funded largely by the energy and arms industries, the Project for the New American Century was founded as the neoconservative think tank whose stated goal was to usher in a “new American century”. Having won the cold war and no military threat to speak of, this group of ideologues created a blueprint for the future whose agenda was to capitalize upon our surplus of military forces and funds and forcing American hegemony and corporate privatization throughout the world. In their statement of principles they outline a fourfold agenda:

1) Increase an already enormous military budget at the expense of domestic social programs

2) Toppling of regimes resistant to our corporate interests
3) Forcing democracy at the barrel of a gun in regions that have no history of the democratic process
4) Replacing the UN’s role of preserving and extending international order

(This all can be read in their own words at www.newamericancentury.org)

Their Method

According to their own document, Rebuilding America’s Defenses ( .pdf format ) their stated goals would never be realized “absent some catastrophic catalyzing event –like a new Pearl Harbor”. (page 63).

George W Bush, whose political career has been nearly fully funded by the energy and defense industries was appointed by the Supreme Court after the disputed election of 2000. Immediately he appointed signatories of PNAC documents to the top levels of the Whitehouse and Pentagon.
It has now been proven that once Bush had all of his top levels filled by the PNAC, that our guard against terrorist attacks was let down.

Richard Clarke, whose position as terrorism czar was promoted to a cabinet level position under Clinton, was subsequently demoted from the cabinet and reassigned by Bush to other projects. Dick Cheney himself, has said that Clarke was kept “out of the loop”.
Paul O’Neil, former Secretary of Treasury, has stated that the Bush administration did not treat Al-qaeda as an imminent threat.
The Bush administration ignored and denied the existence of a presidential briefing entitled “Bin Laden determined to attack inside the United Sates” until it was revealed to the public. Testifying before the 9-11 commission, Rice referred to this as an "historical document'. We were led to believe that this was the only warning. It has since come out to the public, that she was lying. Lying 52 times over. It has now been learned that Condi didn't disclose that they had, in fact, received 52 warnings in the months leading up to September 11th.
The Bush administration needed a “new Pearl Harbor” to implement the PNAC agenda and they let down their guard until it occurred.

The Aftermath

Knowing what we know today, the invasion of Iraq was based on falsehoods and was an unnecessary and dangerous diversion from the effort to reduce terrorist attacks on the United States. Muslim anger at the United States is at an all time high. Iraq posed no threat to us and the process of containment was working. Most importantly, Iraq is in chaos, on the brink of civil war, and now a breeding ground for a hundred new Bin Ladens.

The PNAC members of our government told us that it would be “a cake walk”. That we would be greeted as “liberators”. That we’d see parades in the streets. Terribly undermanned, our military is in the middle of a quagmire where only the best case scenario was planned for.

The museums, the hospitals, the munitions depots, the nuclear facilities were left unprotected at the onset of the invasion. The ministry of oil was securely guarded.

Who has benefited from all of this at the expense of over a thousand US soldiers lives and tens of thousands of Iraqi civilian lives? The very arms and energy industries that funded the PNAC:

· Halliburton, once headed by Vice President Dick Cheney

· Bechtel, once headed by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld

· Trireme, a defense company started by Deputy Secretary of Defense, Richard Perle shortly before the invasion

And finally, one last question:

Where did the first oil tanker to leave Iraq after the invasion go?

Answer: Texas

We also know who's been creating, arming, training - and shifting around to desired-as-destabilized areas - terrorists, different groups of which may wind up fighting each other in other people's countries which TPTB wish to weaken and control... and a whole bunch more evils which many people also don't want to accept as being done by their 'exceptional' 'above international and domestic law' 'leaders'.

They're killing off the American population on a continual and increasing basis, for population poisoning/polluting/impoverishing profits drained off for the relative few, to 'normalize' the police/civil forces abuse, arrest and murder of citizens, to let them die of lack of health-care, homes, clean water and healthy nutrition, in too many ways to list - but it's still believed by some that putting ruthless corporate self-interests in government magically makes them incapable of getting what they want by such mass murders as 9/11, so far, smaller than those which they've been committing in other people's countries for so long. All for personal profit and power, at the cost of everything necessary to civilization and planetary life.

An independent investigation could clear up all doubt; would the innocent perhaps have been eager to clear themselves of all suspicion, rather than ignoring/suppressing/disposing of evidence and refusing any such investigation?

is that the government is so thoroughly corrupt and they are not even trying to hide that fact anymore. The WH is full of people so incompetent it's amazing that any work gets done there at all. But that's the point, isn't it? The work being done isn't coming from the WH, it is coming from the real masters of this country who happen to be the masters of other countries who are doing the same roll backs as are being done here.

Further evidence Trump is just a joke and our political system is a farce that only represents the one percent oligarchy.

Meanwhile the media is keeping people's focus on the 3 ring circus in congress that is the Russian interference plot. Make a good story, doesn't it. Another country denied our Chosen candidate the top position and if we don't fix it they are going to do it again. And again. And behind the scenes the owners are getting every regulation and rule that was passed to make them keep us safe gutted. As well as too many other things going on that we have no knowledge of.

Meanwhile, our ‘democracy’ has been one big consumer fraud. We have been duped by psychopaths in power who pull the strings of puppet politicians. Civic power has been fragmented by a corporate duopoly, keeping the populace in false hope for change in the electoral arena.

How anyone can still hold on to the hope that we are going to vote our way out of this is baffling. 12 years after Pelosi ran on rolling back the Bush abuses, 9 years after Obama ran on Hope and Change, we're still watching as the country continues whatever the hell it wants foreign policy wise while the rest of the country slides into a third world banana republic with lots of shades of fascism thrown in.

No it doesn't look good at all all, Al.

and organizing unions.

Looks like mainly food chain workers, but there are a lot of activities cited on their page, more than last time I checked a couple years ago.

iww.org

I especially like their philosophy of One Big Union. They support the idea of class, not craft. I've seen too many unions scrabble with each other for the crumbs. There's an application fee and monthly dues. Here's what the web page cites abut qualifying:
"
if you meet all of the following conditions:

You are a worker (not an employer);

You agree to abide by the IWW Constitution and regulations of this organization;

You agree to study the IWW's principles and make yourself acquainted with its purposes.;
"

I think you have an excellent idea there, Aspie.

@snoopydawg Ya, the oligarchy corporate media force feeds the issues, but the alternative media invariably follows in it's own way. Trying to dispute the lies, point out the dangers, etc., but it still distracts. Makes it difficult to set a focus on a revolutionary agenda and goals.

@Big Al As you correctly state, we mostly are talking about distractions, not about things that need to get accomplished. We talk about Müller, not Fight For 15. We talk about email, not MFA/SP. We talk Democrats, not war of terror.

The only chance appears to be an organized movement of some kind outside of the election system with the primary purpose of changing this political system into one that does represent the people and removing the sociopaths and psychopaths from power. Perhaps a global working class movement against global oligarchy and rule by the rich. Perhaps an antiwar/anti-imperialism movement either nationally and/or internationally. Something has to be organized outside of this political system of electing so called representatives to challenge the power of the "ruling class". It should be an absolute given that trying to elect different politicians to the two oligarchy controlled political parties is not going to make a dent.

The way I see it, there are only two ways out of this mess. Non-Participation or Revolution.

Non-participation is not really a viable option for many people due to lack of resources to sustain a meaningful boycott and/or work stoppage.

That leaves option number 2. The Revolution will not be televised, nor will it be planned. It will erupt like spontaneous combustion.

"Thank God I have no children!" -- Me, every day

I saw the handwriting on the wall when I figured out (in 1975) that I'd never know the prosperity my ancestors were able to take for granted. I'd have needed my high school diploma, alone, to be enough to get me union scale employment or better, as I've never been athlete material (which pretty much precludes debtless college in my home State of Colorado in the late 1970s).

And I refused to bring children into the world poor, in the hopes of later improvements. Children deserve better than that.

Anyway, I hear you with respect to your descendants. Thank God I have none!

@thanatokephaloides I did get married, but we made the choice not to have kids because we both have disabilities that make raising them difficult to impossible. Not only that, but what would said kids have to look forward to when they reach adulthood? Not much.

Add to that the fact that we have a class of people who are literally eating this country alive, education, infrastructure and employment have gone to total shit despite PresiDunce Dipshit's constant boasting to the contrary and there you have a recipe for total disaster.

The only thing we can hope for is that when the economy crashes this time, it hits the god damned porkies where it hurts. Hard.

What we need (globally or just here in Merica)is a day of no purchases...none. Ideally, this would work better if everyone could abstain from buying for a week or more, but one day would crash the elite's world like no amount of "protests" could ever do. If one day of no spending is too severe for most folks, boycotting one large corporation at a time would also work wonders...beginning of course with a day long (week long, month long) boycott of Walmart, next Target, Wells Fargo and so on.
Folks, you gotta hit them in the pockets, it is the ONLY thing they care about. If you don't believe me...look at the devastating effects the Montgomery bus boycotts had on Montgomery. Cops were actually out there trying to FORCE folks to ride the bus!

We aren't the only ones who are talking about setting up boycotts because we know the PTB want us to use the protest as a vehicle for change. But we know exactly how they would deal with massive protests. They would meet them with their brutish thugs who would have no problem putting them down. And throwing people in jail with such harsh penalties that they'd scare everyone else off.

I like your suggestions for who to hit first. Walmart's stores were part of what started the devastations of mom and pop stores as well as jobs. I'd think that Lowes or Home Depot would be next. They closed down the small hardware stores. Unfortunately too many people use Amazon and I think it'd be hard to get enough people to boycott it. But we will let them know that they are in our crosshairs. Banks and gas stations should be easier so they can be in the first round.

@snoopydawg Street protests are so 20th Century. The PTB caught on to protests a long time ago and now the retaliation for protests are swift and harsh as you've noted. But what can they do when we decide NOT to buy as a form of protest...which is really a boycott? The PTB know we are much stronger than we think, and it is to their advantage to make us believe we are helpless to bring on hopelessness. Once the disease of hopelessness takes hold, the boot is easier to inflict on the face...forever.
I like your idea of banks and gas stations as easy targets. One day of not buying gas from a large population of us will have the oil companies crapping their panties.

@Lookout
Is to begin locally. We would never get the press coverage for a national upheaval. Begin locally, and inform our locally elected officials about our plans which would get local news coverage and hopefully streamed for more national coverage.
Boycotts usually begin small, but gain momentum when more people know and agree. We are all tired of being beat up by this horrible economy, it is about time we do something about it. They have the elections so rigged we lose before we begin. So strategically we need to move around the obstacle.

@longtalldrink

how do we get it started? When the Flush Rush advertises were boycotted the country joined in and they didn't take long to become effective. I only vaguely followed them on ToP, but a new one was found it went on the list.

Our work isn't going to be as hard because we've already picked our first target. We just need to get the word out. This is what we need to decide. How will we go about this? Facebook and Twitter are obviously not going to used for spreading the word. I don't know much about Reddit though, but if it's a good platform we can use it.

As I said, we aren't the only ones talking about this. The other alternative websites have had their ideas on the boycott. I don't go to Walmart except for when my family gives me a gift card for them. I'd rather sell it and have the cash.

Thoughts?

Any conventional internet communication will be immediately censored. Boycotts are sedition. Steemit is an interesting structure for writers and movements. It will never replace the collaborative sensitivity and intellectual testing of an intentional community like this one, but here's the thing:

https://www.steemithelp.net

It is blockchain based communication, which means that it has holographic memory and transparency shared among millions of computers. It cannot be censored. Writers are rewarded with cryptocurrency, as well, when things catch on. That's where a boycott could be organized and go viral. I think that would be a very serious thing, but I haven't really analyze how it would work. The pushback would be draconian. I imagine media would be used to assault the population.

In the end, I don't think there's enough leverage to change the planned depopulation of the throwaway people of America. The US will sell the infrastructure and public land opportunities to foreign investors to finish the asset-stripping. The American colonists will be worked for profit to service a debt they can never repay. Social services will no longer be necessary, Americans have consistently rejected government's obligation to provide the People with human rights, like freedom from hunger or housing for everyone, so the nation has no moral imperative at all. Frankly, I don't think most People will even notice. They'll adapt and build more prisons for themselves, happy for a job. Obviously fascism must follow and encourage them to be good Americans.

I think only a very few People are too sensitive to this to escape through denial. I have learned over the years how few of them there are. Perhaps one in a 100,000, at most did not succumb to a lifetime of brainwashing, while maintaining their sanity and their moral compass. They will suffer. For them, helping young people to emigrate (soon) is a worthy thing. Getting them set up with support in a better country is the right thing to do. Perhaps they will succeed and send for you to join them. That's what families have done for millennia. Migration is normal for this species; it's evolutionary. We are all the descendants of such families, but we forgot. Something happened to us.

Unless the world steps up.

The US is a nuclear threat to the entire world, now. The death of the Empire has taken an ugly turn. The US global carnage has long been obscene, but there has been no outcry of alarm or protest coming from the American people. Perhaps their minds are too destroyed by the intervention of propaganda. In that case, depopulation may be a neutral event.

Unless the world steps up.

Even more unfortunately, there will be nowhere on Earth for anyone to escape to, if this is allowed to continue in its universally destructive rampage.

And I have been hoping for ages that something like Steemit would begin to appear, but people can't join without their being able to text you, which shuts out not only the poor but those who wouldn't have a tracking phone if they were paid to have one, both of which categories include people like myself... (Edit: I never go anywhere, it's the principle of the thing.)

It's very sad that people can or will not boycott the criminal corporations literally, if incrementally killing them and life on their planet even to save their lives and planetary life support system. A concerted, permanent boycott effort could break their political/military, etc. power, probably in relatively short order, as they would not operate at a loss for long and as much of their wealth seems to be based on their own stock prices and 'bubble' investments.

(Back to the instant time-outs, usually doesn't sneakily post on these, but sorry if this doubles.)

Edited because I somehow wound up with 'universality' without noticing. Too bad that couldn't happen with boycotts of criminal corporations, successfully voting in Progs only and US health-care.

Literal puppet-masters of fungible resources they see only as dysfunctional machines anyway.

This is how psychopathic perception is limited; they cannot understand - and perceive as 'weakness' rather than essential species survival values - the human feelings that they lack, which seems allied with long-term thinking as they are incapable of making allowances for such as health, happiness and life itself, all of which is disposable to them where they believe it will not directly negatively impact themselves. And they are incapable of understanding that, especially when that mind-set is imposed large-scale, it will.
