Transcript for 5/3/24: HYBRID WAR FOR A RADIOACTIVE WORLD
Plato once argued that when democracy ripens, and go unattended it will become rotten and a tyrant can seize the moment.
He is usually of the elite but has a nature in tune with the time — given over to random pleasures and whims, feasting on plenty of food and sex, and reveling in the nonjudgment that is democracy’s civil religion. He makes his move by “taking over a particularly obedient mob” and attacking his wealthy peers as corrupt. If not stopped quickly, his appetite for attacking the rich on behalf of the people swells further. He is a traitor to his class — and soon, his elite enemies, shorn of popular legitimacy, find a way to appease him or are forced to flee.
Eventually, he stands alone, promising to cut through the paralysis of democratic incoherence. It’s as if he were offering the addled, distracted, and self-indulgent citizens a kind of relief from democracy’s endless choices and insecurities. He rides a backlash to excess—“too much freedom seems to change into nothing but too much slavery” — and offers himself as the personified answer to the internal conflicts of the democratic mess. He pledges, above all, to take on the increasingly despised elites. And as the people thrill to him as a kind of solution, a democracy willingly, even impetuously, repeals itself.
Plato, of course, was not an apocalyptic clairvoyant like the apostle John nor was he like Nostradamus. His analysis of how democracy can turn into tyranny is a complex one more keyed toward ancient Greece than the United States.
But how remarkable is it that we can take a passage from Plato’s Republic and apply it magically to our own lives here in the 21st century?
Plato’s prediction can apply to any democracy, at any moment in history.
Even more frightening was a vision George Washington had about the future of America that was never taught in my public school but it should be read because it appears that the father of our country saw terrorism come to our soil and a nuclear explosion that would level our country to ruin.
Washington told his vision to Anthony Sherman, who recounted it to Wesley Bradshaw, publisher of the National Stripes.
Washington told Sherman that a doppelganger of himself came to him as if opening a window gave him a vision of the future.
Washington was quoted as saying “Gradually the surrounding atmosphere seemed to fill with sensations and grew luminous. Everything about me seemed to rarefy, the mysterious visitor also becoming more airy, and yet more distinct to my eyes than before. I began to feel as one dying, or rather to experience the sensations that I have sometimes imagined accompany death. I did not think, I did not reason, I did not move. All alike were impossible. I was only conscious of gazing fixedly, vacantly at my companion.”
Washington said that he heard a voice saying to him “Son of the republic look and learn.”
There was a dark cloud and then it lifted showing him what are called the four perils of America. The first peril foreseen by Washington was that of the War of Independence, the second danger was the Civil War, and the third was a second revolution and civil war, complicated by the invasion of America by armies from Asia, Africa, and even Europe.
Then in his vision, there is a grave prediction. Washington then said
“Instantly a light as of a thousand suns shone down from above me and pierced and broke into fragments the dark cloud which enveloped America. At the same moment the angel upon whose head still shone the word ‘Union’ and who bore our national flag in one hand and a sword in the other, descended from the heavens attended by legions of white spirits. These immediately joined the inhabitants of America, who I perceived were well-nigh overcome but who immediately, taking courage again, closed up their broken ranks and renewed the battle.”
Once again Washington was not a seer, or a magician but he did see a future where the United States would be witness to an attack from a nuclear weapon that has the light of a thousand suns.
It is not at all out of the question that are leaders have received visions and have had occult leanings.
As you probably can tell apocalyptic visions are not limited to those who wear sandwich signs declaring the end in near.
Adolf Hitler’s deputy, Rudolf Hess, was obsessed with the occult. He attempted to read minds and used astrological star charts to inform his battle plans. It was Magda Goebbels the wife of Hitler’s propaganda master Joseph Goebbels who introduced him to Nostradamus.
Goebbels had manipulated Nostradamus's writings to indicate that he predicted the invasion of Poland in 1939,
He also said that Nostradamus foretold that England would be steeped in blood for 290 years.
Goebbels knew that there would be a way to convince the world that Hitler was the promised savior of Germany by using eschatology or end-of-the-world prophecy as a method to manipulate a fearful and poor people.
Hitler knew that Oracles would convince his people to follow him into hell. Hitler was able to use the writings of Nostradamus to encourage the success and support of his military blood purges. Winston Churchill, England’s Prime Minister, and the United States responded by publishing other predictions of Nostradamus which foretold Hitler’s fall. MGM Pictures produced a short film called “Nostradamus Says So”, which was shown in movie theatres all over the United States during World War II.
As I have demonstrated from time to time History rhymes -- and with all the new technology used in pushing propaganda -- it is obvious that it is the end of the world as we know it -- but many people are not feeling fine,
The propaganda is working overtime -- and it is becoming confusing to the faithful as secular organizations are now exploiting the apocalypse as a tool for power and division.
Or unfortunately, it could mean that we really are experiencing a dispensational psychosis and that we will all participate in an end-of-the-world experience -- that has been foretold in various scrolls, seers, and biblical passages.
Today not only does peer pressure have its manipulative effects, but prophecy, and religious zeal have now created ill effects that may harm this country and its future.
It is all been foretold in many areas and by many people who know that society’s mental psyche ebbs and flows toward tyranny.
As Plato warned democracy is ripe -- and it is rotting from the top down.
This morning there was a headline on the Drudge report that looked like it could easily have been placed on a newspaper being read by someone on the TV Show FALLOUT.
There was a picture of a destroyed statue of liberty with the headline:
APOCALYPSE GOES MAINSTREAM
END OF WORLD CHATTER NEW NORMAL.
Well hear is a toast to all the listeners messaging me, telling me that I have sounded crazy with all of the Apocalypse talk. It seems that again we have our fingers delicately feeling the pulse of a nation that feels like they are a deer in the headlights,
The Psy-op is working, as we discussed it would and now we have apocalypse trending on Google and X.
You can pretty well figure out what is on the minds of young people today -- besides the war crimes that are being committed in the middle east.
They are concerned about issues of A.I. which now can calculate your estimated expiration date.
We knew this would happen, just like teenagers asking a Ouija board when they are going to die Artificial intelligence can apparently calculate that too.
The AI Death Calculator can make predictions with an accuracy rate that has reached 78% in controlled environments. Creators of Life2vec, the scarily accurate death calculator invented by US and Danish scientists, are warning of a new threat to those curious about learning when they shake this mortal coil — copycat “de-terminator” apps that hijack personal information.
Unveiled in December, Life2vec is not yet available to the general public or corporations — the software is stored at Statistics Denmark-- ready for marketing -- now all we need is an A.I. app that can predict the end of the world -- or at least give us a clue as to when the bombs are going to be dropped for a radioactive planet that we can build back better.
Another concern for youngsters is the whole Climate Change scare. The other concern is pandemic diseases and biological warfare are well-known threats.
Reporting on these challenges and dubbing them a potential “apocalypse” has become common in the media – so common, in fact, that it might go unnoticed or may simply be written off as hyperbole.
I know that it is easy to write it all off as hyperbole, but it has to be considered at least -- not the end of the world -- but at least the end of us.
Also we must also consider the apocalypse theater we have been witnessing from Red Heifers to now -- White Buffalos.
A Texas ranch welcomed a rare white bison calf last week.
They named him Unatsi the Cherokee word for snow.
To American Indians, a White Buffalo Calf is the most sacred living thing on earth. The calf is a sign to begin life's sacred loop. Some American Indians say the birth of a white calf is an omen because the birth takes place in the most unexpected places and often happens among the poorest of people.
The Sioux, Cherokee, Commanche and Navajo celebrate the birth of a white buffalo as a sacred omen indicating that their prayers had been heard and portending much better times.
To American Indians, a White Buffalo Calf is the most sacred living thing on earth. The calf is a sign to begin life's sacred loop.
There is some hope in a world hell bent on destroying itself.
Humans have been fascinated by the demise of the world since ancient times. However, the word apocalypse was not intended to convey this preoccupation. In Greek, the verb “apokalyptein” originally meant simply to uncover or to reveal.
Well, it most certainly is a time of revelations as everything seems to unravel and the truth is coming forward-- truth that certainly is being censored by powerful propaganda masters -- they are schooled in the art of cultural massage, homogenizing every story in favor of the current administration.
Do the apocalyptic fears we read about most actually pose the greatest danger to humanity? Some journalists have recently issued warnings that a nuclear war is more plausible than we realize.
The IDF is preparing to conduct an operation in Rafah, and that could cause the entire Middle East to erupt in flames. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is pledging that his forces will eventually move in no matter how negotiations for a temporary ceasefire with Hamas go.
We have seen airstrikes in Damascus which triggers apocalyptic worries as biblical prophecy calls out Damascus as a center that will be onliterated in the last days.
To make things sound more apocalyptic and Biblical you must listen to Benjamin Netanyu and his comments -- they are chilling.
Netanyahu said that Israelis were united in their fight against Hamas, whom he described as an enemy of incomparable cruelty. “They are committed to completely eliminating this evil from the world,” Netanyahu said in Hebrew. He then added: “You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible. And we do remember.”
There are more than 23,000 verses in the Old Testament. The ones Netanyahu turned to, as Israeli forces launched their ground invasion in Gaza, are among its most violent—and have a long history of being used by Jews on the far right to justify killing Palestinians.
As others quickly pointed out, God commands King Saul in the first Book of Samuel to kill every person in Amalek, a rival nation to ancient Israel. “This is what the Lord Almighty says,” the prophet Samuel tells Saul. “‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”
This is horrifying -- and yet we are not to speak openly about this for fear of retribution,
A member of the Knesset has called for a second Nakba, in reference to the expulsion of Palestinians that Israel carried out in its 1948 war with Arab neighbors.
Casting the enemy as Amalek reinforces the idea of wide bloodshed and makes people wonder if this is part of the prophecy as it is quoted in a political way-- with very horrible repercussions.
French President Emmanuel Macron who once said he wanted to rule France like the God Jupiter, is warning that French troops could be sent to Ukraine if Russian forces break through the Ukrainian front lines.
Macron said the issue of sending troops would ‘legitimately’ arise if Kyiv and President Volodymyr Zelensky made such a request.
The Economist said Macron gave the interview after delivering a keynote speech last week where he declared that Europe is ‘mortal’ and could ‘die’ partly due to the threat posed by Russian aggression.
Russia's war in Ukraine may spread into a 'hybrid World War 3' situation which would leave Europe suffering from radioactive materials and a potential war with NATO nations.
Experts believe areas of Europe will fall to "ecological catastrophe" should Putin's forces overcome the defending Ukrainian troops, and it could spark copycat wars across the globe.
The Globsec group has warned a "sudden drop" in Western support and aid packages to Ukraine could be the triggering point of Russian victory. It would leave an "actual nuclear threat" in Russia's hands following their withdrawal from nuclear deterrence treaties.
Those nuclear threats may continue to grow as the aftershock of Ukraine's war loss spreads rapidly through Europe. Polish President Andrzej Duda has already stated he will launch nuclear missiles if necessary, and radioactive "contamination" may follow.
The report read: "Continuing risks of nuclear contamination in Europe, caused by artificially provoked technogenic catastrophes like on Nuclear power plants with consequent after-effects of humanitarian and ecological catastrophe on the entire continent."
Experts believe as Russia expands into other parts of Europe an all-out war with NATO which will not exclude "nuclear components" will begin. New theatres of war may open in other parts of the world too, with alliances between Russia and North Korea formalized.
The group warned "Russia might feel ready at some point to attack other states like Georgia, Kazakhstan and Moldova," and a "conventional war of NATO countries with Russia" would increase.
According to Bloomberg: US intelligence officials assess that Russia and China are working more closely together on military issues, including a potential invasion of Taiwan, prompting new planning across the government to counter a potential scenario in which the countries fight in coordination.
“We see China and Russia, for the first time, exercising together in relation to Taiwan and recognizing that this is a place where China definitely wants Russia to be working with them, and we see no reason why they wouldn’t,” Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines said Thursday in testimony to Congress.
Republican Senator Mike Rounds of South Dakota asked Haines about such a potential scenario during a hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee. He also asked the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency about the Pentagon’s planning for such a possibility.
Rounds said that the “the bottom line is that, basically, if we were to have a conflict with one, chances are that we would have a second front,” affecting planning, equipment, and manpower needs.
“Certainly it’s a possibility,” Haines said. “The question of just how likely it is, I think differs depending on the scenario.”
Haines added that intelligence assessments indicate there is “increasing cooperation in the ‘no-limits’ partnership” between Russia and China “across really every sector of society: political, economic, military, technological and so on.”
Remember Vladimir Putin has used apocalyptic language in reference to his cause and that is to DE satanize Ukraine -- and China has its own apocalypse to run without God getting in the way.
The key point is that both religious and secular views of the end of the world make use of the same word. The meaning of “apocalypse” has thus expanded in recent decades from an exclusively religious idea to include other, more human-driven apocalyptic scenarios, such as a “nuclear apocalypse,” a “climate apocalypse,” a biological apocalypse,” or an “AI apocalypse.”
In short, the reporting of apocalypses in the media does indeed provide a revelation – not of how the world will end but of the ever-increasing ways in which it could end. It also reveals a paradox: that people today often envision the future most vividly when they revive and adapt an ancient word.
The apocalypse scares in essence revive a mediaeval cosplay. A thousand-year-old fear that was used to convert people to Jesus or create soldiers for holy war.
Political communications scholars Christopher Wlezien and Stuart Soroka demonstrate in their research that the media are likely to reflect public opinion even more than they direct it or alter it. While their study focused largely on Americans’ views of important policy decisions, their findings, they argue, apply beyond those domains.
If they are correct, we can use discussions of the apocalypse in the media over the past few decades as a barometer of prevailing public concerns.
Following this logic, we collected all articles mentioning the words “apocalypse” or “apocalyptic” from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post between Jan. 1, 1980, and Dec. 31, 2023. After filtering out articles centered on religion and entertainment, there were 9,380 articles that mentioned one or more of four prominent apocalyptic concerns: nuclear war, disease, climate change, and AI.
It is as if the apocalypse is a trigger point in our DNA and that perhaps the reason everything seems crazy is because people are literally, losing their minds over the possibility that the end of the world is so close you can taste the fallout.
This is why these themes seem to be ubiquitous in our TV and Movie entertainment -- it is all Hollywood thinks about and thus it is all we think about.
Studies suggest that the more reality TV people watch—and I would posit that it’s all reality TV, entertainment news included—the more difficult it becomes to distinguish between what is real and what is carefully crafted farce.
“We the people” are watching a lot of TV.
On average, Americans spend five hours a day watching television. By the time we reach age 65, we’re watching more than 50 hours of television a week, and that number increases as we get older. And reality TV programming consistently captures the largest percentage of TV watchers every season by an almost 2-1 ratio.
This doesn’t bode well for a citizenry able to sift through masterfully-produced propaganda in order to think critically about the issues of the day.
Yet look behind the spectacles, the reality TV theatrics, the sleight-of-hand distractions and diversions, and the stomach-churning, nail-biting drama that is politics today, and you will find there is a method to the madness.
It is the secular world jumping on board with the religious paranoia that is the apocalypse --and in turn, creates the division that we see and the concerns we have for Israel and Palestine.
The Cold War pales to the Frigid war that we are now a part of --one that could erupt in a fire so great people will burn as stubble according to the bible.
It is written in Isaiah:
"Surely they are like stubble; the fire will burn them up. They cannot even save themselves from the power of the flame. These are not coals for warmth; this is not a fire to sit by."
We have become guinea pigs in a ruthlessly calculated, carefully orchestrated, chillingly cold-blooded experiment in how to control a population and advance a political agenda without much opposition from the citizenry.
Those who see the apocalypse as a form of salvation and claim to know the end of the story -- will be the first to see the destruction and strife that will be performed by the powerful elite that read the bible too -- but their goal is to exploit what is being taught --and excising what they feel is inconvenient to their cause.
They want to pass laws that affect how we read the bible or interpret scripture -- it is in total violation of the First Amendment -- do we not see the attacks on the religious and does this not make it more obvious that we are dealing with those who abuse prophecy as a Psy-op.
What if current events were merely manufactured to sell an idea? What if that idea is predicated on an ancient archetype, seeded into our minds for thousands of generations? Would it work? Is the Apocalypse nothing more than a manufactured psyop?
An idea can be spread like a virus. It can be a contagious idea this is why it is said to be viral. It is resilient and there is no cure for this particular mind virus. The problem is that if you do not respect it, or check it with wisdom it certainly can consume you like a cancer.
Weaponizing the apocalypse is one more tool in the box of hybrid warfare.
You have to wonder if the idea of the end of the world defines us now in the 21st century.
