Tilting at Windmills – Timshel (archive)

(archived from June 3, 2015)

by Scott Creighton

With the recent setbacks such as Obama getting his Trade Promotion Authority (fast tracking) and yesterday’s passage of the U.S. A. “Freedom” Act, one can’t help but feel we’re tilting at windmills out here in blogger land. Some would say (and have repeatedly said) that we’re fighting an enemy that doesn’t exist. One that we have created ourselves out of targets we can’t possibly understand. That we fear the future and wish to return to a simpler, more romantic period that we have idealized because we simply can’t adapt to the world as it is now.

Currently we’re looking at a countdown to the fascist TPP and TTIP, which by all rational accounts will end the sovereignty of every nation that signs onto them and decimate legal protections set forth by those countries on behalf of global business interests in terms of environmental protections,  worker’s rights, consumer’s rights, internet freedom, privacy protections, small business protections, intellectual property rights and so much more.

The Miracle of America Unfolds – The Kafkaesque State of the Union (archive)

Obama’s reboot of Bush’s Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007 is only PART of the Kafkaesque picture

The globalists are salivating. They are poised to make a huge grab for that brass ring that only undemocratic, executive action can provide. The kind that unelected unaccountable technocrats in places like Greece, Ukraine and Detroit can make. And these guys are doing it right here in the states before our very eyes.

But don’t worry, the globalist guy who brought us the nightmare of NAFTA and brought Haiti the nightmare of neoliberalism says it’s unavoidable and legal and in 20 years or so, even the peasants will approve.

The Tumblers are Clicking into Place – TPP, CISPA and the Rise of the New Mammon Dawn (archive)

Yes, Shelly, there really are monsters in the world.

It is ironic in a way that the government thinks it’s alright to have a record of every single call that an American makes, but not alright for an American citizen to know what sovereign powers the government is negotiating away.” Congressman Alan Grayson

No. It’s not ironic. It’s completely logical when you understand the “unified field theory” of it all, otherwise known as our history. Then it makes perfect sense.

Yesterday I had to defend my theory on the Snowden psyop when a long-time reader suggested I was making connections that simply weren’t there; seeing some kind of overall agenda that blinded me to the real value of the selfless efforts of Edward Snowden and Glenn Greenwald.

Maybe you should ask yourself if you are losing it. You are so caught up in some unified field theory that sucks up everyone and everything. I really appreciate your focus on neoliberalism the Snowden stuff and and Greenwald seems a stretch “  DBShell

Unfortunately I guess I am losing it. If I ever had “it”.

Yes, there is a unified field theory at work here. And yes, there is a reason all of these things are coming to fruition at this moment in time. Like the tumblers of a lock, they all have to line up, to click into place at just the right time, in just the right alignment, for the masters of the universe to open the gates to their New Mammon Dawn (mammon: material wealth or possessions especially as having a debasing influence)

And they are… whether one wishes to see it or not.
