The Century of the Self Documentary
~ SINCE THE EARLY part of the 20th century, “Experts” have been working hard to control everybody through advertising, propaganda, government policies– using Freudian notions at first (see the The Century of the Self Documentary above). Theories based on incomplete understanding of human nature are bound to go wrong, but you have to crush a few chickens to make omlettes.. or something like that.
That’s all old news– the latest is behavioural science, distilled into the cuddly-sounding but evil rality of “The Nudge”. After all, American radicals– schooled in Saul Alinsky’s rules for radicals– are all about theory versus reality, and boiling down all the mysterious richness, complexity, and tradition of actual people gathered into societies into “how do we get the rats to choose what we want?
It’s all about compliance, docility, doing what the government and elites want, with a minimum of fuss. Friendly smiley-face totalitarianism. The 20th century dreams of utopia are not dead, but the complete state is ever-more possible and deadly, through technology. It is a horrible hope, a dehumanized society, a domination of the many by the few. “The Nudge” is devilish psychological technology intended to create self-enslaving people. What a tiny-minded puny imagination our would-be masters seem to possess.
Just FYI, type thing. ~

~ A DISCOUNT WAR could paralyze the U.S. in a matter of seconds, and lead to the death of 90% (about 297 million) of the population within 2 years.
The threat? A high-altitude nuclear strike– three nukes spaced across the U.S.– which would issue an Electro-Magnetic Pulse (EMP)– like an invisible lighting-strike, only covering a huge area. This doesn’t kill people, but will melt all unprotected electronics, shut down the power grid for years, and knock America off the world stage for generations, if not forever. No electronic or electric power, computers or cellphones, no cars, pumps, air-conditioning, banking– across most of the U.S. = plague, famine, civil chaos, death of the young and old, and the sick, and all the rest. Instant AD900.. except most people have no idea how to live without technology, as our recent ancestors did.
The Sun Is Just Waiting…
A new group has been formed in the U.S. including Frank Gaffney, to try and raise awareness, harden the electrical grid and electronic equipment from devastating EMP or solar events, improve U.S. defences against a possible nuclear missile EMP strike, and make sure the government at national, state, and local levels get prepared. There have been reports and blue-ribbon panels and warnings over the past 10 years and more.. but Washington is politically-driven, not reality-driven.
The sun WILL electro-magnetically smack us at some point, and we have only now to fix ourselves up in preparation, and only ourselves to blame. Some rogue state/ terrorist/ CIA special op gone wrong MAY hit North America or Europe with an EMP-nuke seeking to cripple us, world-economy be damned.
This is only theoretically on Obama’s radar. One possible reason for his ill-advised collaboration with al-Qaeda in Syria is the old appeasement thing, where you hope the alligator will eat you last. He still thinks he’s in control of the world, via charm, brilliance, and a killer golf-score. He’s not, and better Presidents of days gone by would be warning him to lean back on Russia, the Norks, stand up in a friendly by clear way to China, and seek to do the right thing world-wide.
The Talking Head
Sadly, he’s Bush 2.0 with most of the foreign policy, and has no clue or pattern in his head whereby to respond properly to international threats. As a true-red communist, he’s convinced that people are inherently good, will tend to want & do the right thing (given enough regulations and threats), and therefore he’s an innocent abroad in many respects, letting the evil forces in the world grow larger, totalitarianizing American even more, and leaving the forces of good and good will worldwide to languish, fighting alone & leaderless.
Remember: he never did any real-world job, really. A million dollars of Ivy League, then running a foundation, hanging with radical political peeps, and then the story yet to be told of how he and his cronies manufactured a presidency out of nothing. Past presidents ran businesses, served in the military, ran universities, and had real-world skills to deal with real-world people and problems.
Reality Bites
Turning the power off for years and years by solar or nuclear EMP is as real-world as it gets, and unlike other spin-doctored crises to keep people stressed and obedient, this one ends everything for everybody. Mind you, given the dreams of some environmentalists of a small stustainable population, maybe that’s part of a plan, too? I dunno.
