The "Harm Reduction" President Keeps Killing People: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!
Listen to a reading of this article:
Boy this United States-led world order sure is working out great. This was definitely worth killing millions of people in imperialist wars for.
The "harm reduction" president just bombed Afghanistan and Somalia and added further sanctions to Cuba.
As total mass media blackouts on important news stories become more common, the challenge increasingly is not just obtaining newsworthy information about the powerful via whistleblowing, investigative journalism etc, but also finding ways to get that information seen by people. Which is awful, but it also means people like you now play a much more important role in the media, because you do not need to be an investigative journalist or whistleblower to find fun and creative ways to get important critical information in front of peoples eyes.
Those who can get people to actually see critical information are just as important as those who obtain that information, because since the media will not report on it, getting it circulating online is highly important.
If you can do this, you are making a huge difference. Find ways to distribute information by packaging it in fun and interesting ways to get it to go viral online or offline; use memes, distribute flyers, give talks, anything you can think of to open peoples eyes to what is going on, and you will be doing humanity a tremendous service.
All the journalists and whistleblowers do important work, but their work will not make a damn bit of difference if nobody sees it. We can not all do what they do, but we can all help spread awareness in our own unique and creative ways.
The most important thing is getting unauthorized information over the walls of the echo chamber of people who already know about it. We all kind of talk to ourselves in our little circles, so we want to get ideas and information out to people who do not normally hear such things.
The cool thing about having a United States president with obvious dementia symptoms is it makes it clear that the administration is running independent of his authority, which is like training wheels for the reality that all administrations are run independent of any presidents authority.
"Hmm, it turns out a presidential administration can run fine even if the president has a degenerative neurological disease. Perhaps the presidency is not as important as advertised. Perhaps the most powerful government in the world is not being run by its elected officials at all."

If the president were in charge then the presidency which campaigned as the anti-Trump would not be continuing all of the Donald Trump administration policies that powerful people care about. Yet it is.
If Kamala takes over for Joe, all that will change is the United States will go from having a fake puppet president with dementia to having a fake puppet president who does not have dementia.
"It is not dementia, President Biden has a speech impediment!
A speech impediment which causes a rapidly exacerbating shift in personality and demeanor and ability to organize thoughts over a period of several years!"
While everyone is fighting to make sure all United States of American schools teach kids that slavery was bad and the KKK is immoral, perhaps you could get them teaching kids that murdering millions of people in other countries for power and profit is also not good.
Basically what happened was a hundred years ago some communists overthrew the Russian Empire, and then the entire worldwide capitalist class spent the next century inventing propaganda and surveillance systems and robot and drone technologies to help make sure that can never happen to them.
Me: We need to end the system which destroys our environment for profit and leads to widespread mass murder and injustice and world-threatening nuclear escalations because if we do not everyone will die.
Army of weird idiots: You just do not understand economics bruh
I have not one shred of respect for the position that one must not criticize vaguely progressive politicians because "they are the best we have got". The fact that a few shitty imperialists are "the best you have got" is the problem. A system which filters out any politicians who are not shitty imperialists must be criticized.
"Do not say the shitty imperialist is a shitty imperialist! They are the least shitty imperialist we are allowed to have!"
That is exactly why you do need to say they are all shitty imperialists! Only being allowed to elect shitty imperialists is a huge problem; you can not just not talk about that.-Caitlin Johnstone (caitoz) July 23, 2021
I go on binges of focusing on China a lot because the success of the imperialist propaganda campaign against Beijing honestly freaks me the f-ck out.
It is really, really creepy watching more and more peoples minds fold and transform into tools of the Pentagon in real time. It is like watching a zombie outbreak.
A big part of the problem is that just as the insane do not know they are insane, the propagandized do not know they are propagandized.
Criticize all the anti-China propaganda that is going around and people say "Why are you defending a government that wants to take over the world and harvest my organs and give me a social credit score??"
And they think that is normal.
They have no idea their mind has been hijacked and made into a tool of cold warriors and the military-industrial complex; they think they are defending an objective reality. This is a major challenge, because nobody is going to remove a blindfold if they do not believe it exists.
The last secretary of state openly admitted the United States is sanctioning Iran into the Stone Age so that the people will get so miserable they rise up against their government, and yet when protests happen in Iran due to shortages caused by sanctions there are still people who buy it.
Every mistake I have ever made in this job was the result of listening to other people instead of trusting my gut and moving with my own intuition and inspiration.
I am too experienced at this point to ever let anyone cajole me into writing about their pet topic in their way.
