The United States Has Zero Moral Authority: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!

Listen to a reading of this article:

Post-Iraq the United States has zero moral authority. The narrative managers aim to suck you in to arguing about the minutiae of the inner workings of the latest target of the empire, when in fact a simple "Shut the f-ck up, it is none of your business" is all they deserve.

What the United States and its proxies are doing with Yemen is universes more horrific and universes more urgent than what Russia is doing with Ukraine.

The Ukraine invasion that never arrives is showing us once again that when it comes to Russia you really can just completely ignore all the so-called "experts" in the mainstream media. Just dismiss 100 percent of everything they say. Any random schmucks best guess is better than theirs.

The United States has spent years accusing Russia of inflaming far right extremism in America and that whole time they were fixing to ship weapons to Nazis in Ukraine.

President Putin should run an aggressive propaganda campaign insisting the United States is about to invade Mexico and threatening severe repercussions if it does, then when the invasion fails to materialize take credit for it and say it is because of his bold actions against the Joe Biden regime.

"Oh, right, it is not like the United States already has a history of annexing Mexican territory or anything, you despicable White House propagandist. And I guess you have never heard of a little thing called IRAQ??"

Saying we need to defend Ukrainian democracy is like saying we need to defend Iowas fjords.

To be a westerner is to be continuously inundated with made-up stories about evil tyrants who want to terrorize the world while living under a vast empire that is actually terrorizing the world.

It is like they are actively trying to become parodies of themselves.-Caitlin Johnstone (caitoz) February 13, 2022

Boy I feel sorry for all those ignorant assholes who do not watch the news and have no idea that President Putin is invading Ukraine and Donald Trump was a Kremlin agent and Saddam had WMDs and capitalism is totally working and the United States of America is the greatest country on earth.

Looking to the mainstream media for truth is like looking to a prostitute for love. That is not what they are there for. That is not their job.

The type of financial blockade they are setting up in Canada today will with 100 percent certainty be used against other protest movements which pose a problem for the powerful tomorrow. Including the ones you support.

It is not about Zero Hedge.

It is not about Russian propaganda.

It is not about Covid misinformation, election security, foreign trolls or QAnon.

It is about ruling power structures needing to normalize and expand the regulation of online speech to protect consent for the status quo.

Few people understand just how important it is for the powerful to control the narrative about what is going on in the world.

It is the primary thing standing between the status quo and revolutionary change.

They would do anything, and I mean anything, to keep it.

When governments and their media mouthpieces keep offering diverse and unrelated reasons why online information needs to be more strictly controlled, it is not hard to see that the strict control of information is itself their real objective.

Today they are back to focusing on "Russian propaganda". Tomorrow it will be back to "Covid misinformation" or "domestic extremism" or some other justification.

But that is all they are: justifications. For something they already intend to do and have been working toward for a long time.

It is like if some stranger kept following you around telling you all different reasons why it is very important that you hand him your wallet. At a certain point it must occur to you that it is not really about those reasons he is giving you, it is just him trying to get your wallet.

The United States empire does not promote democracy, it violently opposes it and subverts it at every opportunity. Opposing the planetary domination of the United States empire is what promotes democracy.

-MSM: How can we peer deeply into the mind of President Putin to understand his motives and goals??

-Putin: I want an end to NATO expansionism and for these clear red lines I have listed to be respected.

-MSM: Nobody knows what he wants. It is impossible to tell.-Caitlin Johnstone (caitoz) February 16, 2022

Westerners are so propagandized that the ones I encounter find it easier to believe I just so happen to support every evil regime in the world, whether capitalist or communist, than to consider the possibility that the United States regime is the real evil and I simply oppose that evil.

They actually imagine I am looking at each of the governments being targeted by the United States empire, thinking "Hmm, this Kim Jong Un has some good ideas. Oh look, I also agree with Vladimir Putin! And the Iranian government as well! All their positions sound good to me."

I mean, how brainwashed do you have to be to think that??

It can not possibly be because the United States and its allies are quantifiably the most destructive and murderous power structure in todays world, and opposing such a beast is a completely normal thing that literally everyone should be doing.

Person criticizing the most powerful and destructive government on earth = RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA!!

Entire western political-media class pumping out uniform plot hole-riddled narratives about governments who disobey Washington,D.C = just the normal news teaching you what is true.

Hollywood movies allow us to fantasize about beating up murderous villains, stopping terrorists and defeating evil empires without having to actually stand up to them in real life, which we do not want to do, because we are afraid of them, because they are our own government.

Internet communists like to talk tough about supporting violent revolution but we all know we are so far from any kind of real revolution at this point in the game that it is about as brave as saying you are willing to fight Skeletor.

Hollywood, Silicon Valley and the mainstream news media are just as integral a part of the empire as its military.

Do not worry if people call you a "contrarian".

Frequently disagreeing with mainstream consensus is probably a sane and healthy thing to do in a profoundly sick society.
