[PAA-Discuss] Gorbachav of the Pentagon? read this second. Lee

[Ron and Kris Graham]

I wonder if this article was written by an anarchist, Robert. The tone of
the article seems to have strong anarchist tendencies or perhaps, I'm wrong.
Perhaps a libertarian wrote it. I noticed the reference to socialism and
capitalistic socialism and the seeming negativity toward welfare, Social
Security and other things. I very much lean anarchist, however, historically
anarchism has never lasted anywhere for very long without being crushed.
With that being said, I think anarchism can work for an individual or a
small group of individuals. I'm not sure it could ever work in a town or
city or state. On the subject of socialism, I'm not sure we'll ever get a
socialist government here in the U.S. We need a government of, by and for
the workers, but I don't see it happening. I'm not sure what we are going to
eventually have. I have tried to have a conversation in the past with a
group of people, including you, about the pros and cons of anarchism,
socialism and communism and was told I was being ridiculous and speaking
with white trash language. I suppose one is not allowed to speak freely
these days even among so called leftist individuals. Even supposed far
leftists can be narrow minded and judgmental when one questions their chosen
doctrine. I think we must be open to ALL possibilities if they embrace human
and environmental rights, egalitarianism and equity.

 

Thanks for the article, Robert. It was interesting to say the least. I do
agree with you that we are surrounded by the "blue pill" people, and they
seem perfectly happy to remain ensconced in their illusions.

I believe we are surrounded by the blue pill people........

 

There are none so blind as those who will not look. If you are one of those
who will look, take a look around. You are surrounded -- surrounded by
millions who will not look. These are the blue pill people. Who are these
blue pill people and why won't they look? 

"The Matrix" may be only a movie, but it presents some scenarios with much
relevance to our current situation. In the movie, Neo meets Morpheus and is
offered an opportunity and a choice. Neo can take the red pill and see the
truth for himself, or he can take the blue pill and return, comfortably
unaware, to the illusion of the Matrix. There he can live out his life
undisturbed by the truth. The truth depicted in The Matrix is an extreme
version of modern socialism. 

In the futuristic scenario of the movie, a massive array of human beings are
kept in self-contained pods that resemble artificial wombs. These
"row-cropped" human entities are maintained in their pods, from their in
vitro conception until they are no longer useful to the Artificial
Intelligence (AI) entity. The AI entity needs certain things from these
"humans" for its own sustenance, so it continuously breeds new human crops
and extracts from them what it needs. In return, the AI entity supplies the
humans' needs with several permanent intravenous connections and a neural
link. The neural link provides the pod-bound humans with a complete illusion
-- the Matrix. In the AI-created illusion the humans have a normal life in a
real world. In reality, however, the civilized world was destroyed some time
ago and humans have been harvested as crops for the benefit of the Al entity
ever since. The Matrix is a complete digital holographic type "world"
created by the AI entity to mentally contain its human crops while it
extracts what it needs from their pod-bound bodies. 

In the movie, when Morpheus is about to offer Neo the choice between either
the red pill or the blue pill, he explains: 

"You're here because you know something. What you know you can't explain --
but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life; that there's something
wrong with the world; you don't know what it is, but it's there, like a
splinter in your mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought
you to me. Do you know what I'm talking about?" 

"The Matrix," Neo asks? 

"Do you want to know what it is? The Matrix is everywhere, it is all around
us. Even in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or
when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, when
you go to church, when you pay your taxes; it is the world that has been
pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth." 

And Neo asks, "What truth?" 

"That you are a slave Neo, like everyone else, you were born into bondage;
born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch; a prison for
your mind. Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to
experience it for yourself." 

Those few humans who were either born into reality, or have successfully
taken the red pill, become the focus of the movie's story -- their attempts
to destroy the Matrix and liberate the mass of humanity that lives
completely encapsulated in their pods and the illusions fed to them by the
powers that be -- powers that will go to any length to maintain the
illusion. 

Extreme, but not much different than our modern system of corporate
government and capitalistic socialism. The governing powers need things from
us, not the least of which is our consent. To obtain our consent we are fed
all manner of benefits. We are programmed from an early age to believe that
such benefits are necessary. To obtain these benefits, a number of conduits
are attached to each of us. Adhesion contracts like Social Security, a
driver's license; voter registration for a pretended choice of social
masters, bank accounts where credit is manufactured for our use and other
memberships, registrations, licenses, deeds and permits to insure the
conduct of our affairs will be confined within the "matrix" of corporate
governance. 

We are given our own numbered "pod," a social net provided by the
government. Educated according to mandates of the state, our belief system
is further cultured by corporate media. 

There are various forms of "welfare" should we succumb to poverty or
disease. If we are threatened or in danger we can call 911. Government's job
of "securing" us is made easier by the massive database tracking our
movements, our finances, the location of our homes and businesses and our
tax records. When old age creeps up, we can rely on government to take care
of us. 

The corporate/government/financial interface combines to create a massive
illusion of benefits -- the American dream. For the price of a promise to
indebt our future labors, pay our taxes and play within the system, there
are seemingly limitless toys, castles, comforts and consumables for those
who believe in this Matrix. For half our productivity taken in taxes (the
other half in payments) and the deeds and title to whatever we think we own,
government and its private affiliates will take care of us. 

To live in this Matrix, all we have to surrender is any genuine sense of
independence, personal responsibility and our right to live freely and
actually own the fruits of our labors. 

And, like in the movie, a contingent of agents are deployed to combat any
renegade humans who have a will for freedom from the Matrix which surrounds
us. 

As Morpheus explained, "The Matrix is a system Neo, and that system is our
enemy. When you are inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen,
teachers, lawyers, carpenters, the very minds we are trying to save. Until
we do, these people are part of that system and that makes them our enemies.
You have to understand that most of these people are not ready to be
unplugged and many are so hopelessly dependent on the system, they'll fight
to protect it." 

Why will blue pill people fight to protect a Matrix that enslaves them? It's
all they know. And all their toys, castles, comforts and consumables will be
gone without the Matrix. Their whole illusionary existence will evaporate,
leaving them naked and alone. 

What won't the blue pill people in our current "real" world look at? They
refuse to acknowledge they are they are funding their enslavement to a
socialist homeland police state. Last month, a few "red pill" people
traveled to D.C. for an eloquent conclusion to Freedom Drive 2002, exposing
the fraud of the l6th Amendment, the IRS, and the federal income tax. But
the blue pill people remained comfortably in their coma, ever willing to pay
a tax they do not owe. They fund Congress and the Nazi/moron president's
implementation of America's new Third Reich, so they can feel "secure." 

And, so the blue pill people can finally understand what really happened the
morning of September 11, 2001, Henry Kissinger, the angel of death and
global tyranny, will investigate the facts and tell us the blue-pill truth.
Will Americans really believe the Doctor of genocide? 

Hidden away on the 6th floor of the Department of Justice building is the
secret FISA Court. U. S. attorneys have been going there for years to get
secret search warrants from in-house, rubberstamp judges under the guise of
"national security." This parallel "legal" system can order clandestine
searches of citizens' and non-citizens' homes. From the "evidence" gathered,
we can be secretly declared "enemy combatants" and held indefinitely at U.
S. military bases. 

Remember the detainment camps those paranoid conspiracy theorists told you
about years ago? 

U.S. officials claim they can detain and interrogate enemy combatants until
the executive branch declares an end to the war on terrorism. This includes
no access to lawyers or family members; investigations, interrogations,
trials and punishments can be held without the protections secured by the
Constitution. The Nazi/moron president's administration says there is ample
precedent for what it is doing. Are we following the "ample precedent" of a
man named Hitler? 

Meanwhile, the Congress has passed the American Gestapo Authorization
(Homeland Security) Act which defines a terrorist as: 

"The term "terrorism' means any activity that -- involves an act that is
dangerous to human life or potentially destructive of critical
infrastructure or key resources; and is a violation of the criminal laws of
the United States or of any State or other subdivision of the United States;
and appears to be intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; to
influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or to
affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or
kidnapping." 

As a test for social compliance, 838 blue pillers recently passed blissfully
through an unconstitutional random roadblock in Pittsburgh without "seeing"
the real "terrorists" in Homeland Security's new America -- the police state
(See page 22). Is our present police state "dangerous to human life" and
"destructive of critical infrastructure" like the Bill of Rights? Is it
"against the laws" (18 USC 241; 242) to deprive a citizen of their right to
travel and be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects? Do random
roadblocks, by design, "intimidate or coerce a civilian population?" What
happens if you don't comply with the roadblock? 

The next test for blue pill compliance will be mass inoculations for
smallpox. Will the blue pill population literally trample all over each
other to get their shots as some officials predict? Has the vaccination
"matrix" been so well entrenched in the blue pillers' minds that they will
actually let mercury, monkey puss and aborted fetal tissue be injected under
their skin based on an unproven theory that such things promote health and
prevent disease? 

And what greater "matrix" is there, than our current "fiat;' financial
system? We "believe" that a piece of paper with the picture of a dead
president has the value of the number printed on it and that one dead
president is more valuable than another. We don't even consider that the use
of this dead president paper is the direct cause of our own enslavement. 

Have you ever seen your bank account? It's not there. Only the
slight-of-hand practiced by the teller and the accountant behind the scenes
makes this illusion look real to the blue pill people. 

How deep does the rabbit hole go? Near the end of the movie, the Matrix's
agent Smith acclaims the virtues of the Matrix to the captive red pill
people's leader Morpheus: "Have you ever stood and stared at it? Marveled at
is beauty; its genius? Billions of people, just living out their lives --
oblivious."

Ron did not send his response to Lee to the discussion list, but I thought
it was an excellent explanation for why he feels we are in the end days of
the American Empire.

The American tax base is not able support a military budget that exceeds a
trillion dollars a year. The difference has been made up by borrowing
through T- bills and (oddly enough) from our competitors in the global
market place. This practice of increasing debt simply delays an inevitable
economic collapse. 

 

Think of it as a homeowner who continuously re-mortgages a house because
they keep buying crap they don't need. Eventually their ability to defray
debt can't continue because of income shortfall. If the homeowner can't
increase income (pay raise, overtime, or theft) or reduce spending,
bankruptcy ensues and the creditor(s) take the property. 

 

If the United States continues spending more than it makes and borrowing
more than it can repay, economic collapse will happen. How will we know it
is coming? It will be signaled by devalued currency, rampant inflation, and
repressive taxation. It could be prevented by increasing productivity,
tipping the balance of trade in our favor, and by slashing government
spending on the war machine. The first two have been tried with no good
results. The third won't happen because OUR elected leaders represent global
corporatists and special interest groups that are extra-national. We have
the best government that money can buy. The American people are about to be
chewed up and spat out!

 

Like any pulp fiction detective knows you follow the money. Who benefits?

Yes, whatever that means. If we are drawing in our empirical arms as Britain

I agree. The coup happened over forty years ago, but there is good news.
Imperialism is not sustainable. I believe we are living in the last days of
the American Empire.

Or Obama is shot and Biden gets the message and the coup, which happened
some time ago, as when the Kennedys and MLK were dispatched, has already
happened. I put the wrong -- good, but not the best -- article in hpn re
Obama's massive power struggle with the American military machine/Woodward's
book. Bummer. Now I need to find the better one. Lee

Ron and I believe Obama would never have been put in the position of
President and Commander in Chief of the U.S. military if he was not part and
parcel of the problem. If on the offbeat chance Obama garners support within
his administration and possibly with some members of the CIA, Pentagon and
FBI to get rid of the rogue forces within those agencies, then an attempted
coup will most likely be in the works.
