Reflections on a pre-
revolutionary situation
Seemorerocks
We are living in a freak show (or something like that - words fail me).
I watched the Tru News late last night and it helped me to understand what is at stake.
At present an estimated 1 million people are pouring into Washington DC in their masses all egged on by a media that is baying for Donald Trump's blood.
One does have to wonder what happened to Covid-19 and "social distancing"
But now the excuse is that racism is a bigger threat than covid-19 (all of a sudden!)
Going through the material from TruNews it is obvious what is happening and that is a coup. Even if we don't get a "storming of the Bastille" at the White House it is obvious that this is over; the Republic as the world has known it is over.
Leaving aside the pretty extreme rhetoric from Tru News they are correct. Once you have Trump "agreeing" to send the troops home you are leaving the capital open to whatever forces are going to have their day.
Now you have the mayor of Washington DC renaming a street "Black Lives Matter" and then this in large yellow letters.
Meanwhile these armed folk have appeared in Washington. Whether they are hired prison guards or military contractors it seems that they may be there to protect Trump given that he has been betrayed by the military and those around him.
Steven ben-Noon of Israeli News Now talks about this here
Meanwhile, this is what is going on
I have few words to describe the mass insanity that has overtaken the world. Imagine taking away all protection from the capital (and we are talking, not only about protection of the president whatever you think of him but of social order itself.
Imagine even contemplating defunding the police (who by the way have been trained to act this way by the Israelis (both Rick Wiles and Steven ben-Noon point this out).
What are they going to replace them with? Armed militia from the ranks of Antifa?
It is high time people start to look at history. Revolutions start off being for the downtrodden and always end up hurting those who they are supposed to help.
Even now the black communities have been the worst victims of the looting with inhabitants of poor communities losing everything to the actions of the looters.
Who asked these people to come into this man's neighbourhood.
There is a great deal of cant and hypocrisy about all of this.
We have a lot of white, privileged and rich people shedding crocodile tears over the death of George Floyd who seems not to have been the paragon of virtue that he is being portrayed as.
This is not about race or even police violence. The police are a STATE institution and someone gave the order for them to be trained in this way - quite possibly the very same people that are pushing this narrative.
It is about CLASS and about poverty. Who is talking about the genocide of Native Americans amongst these people? The very same Geoff Bezos' and others who are pushing this narrative are the very same people who are pushing people into poverty and also criminalising poverty.
I have a friend who knows what discrimination and police violence is - his own uncle was murdered by police- and yet he is not buying into this narrative. He is far too canny and sees it as it is - a coup, a new strategy when another one failed..
Imagine how this woman has been denounced and vilified for speaking out!
