A Storm in the West: The Liberal Intellectual Paradigm is Broken by Alastair Crooke
The liberal intellectual paradigm is broken, along with its associated technocratic governance structure.
This collapse transcends the red/blue schism, highlighting the need for a change in economic governance due to dysfunctionality in Western culture wars.
Western liberal elites are seen as incompetent in governance, failing to grasp the severity of their situation.
They do not understand that the financial architecture that previously offered effortless prosperity is well past its usefulness.
The West displays an "almost pathological dissociation from the real world" in words and actions.
It is likely the West will continue to live in its alternative reality until forcibly expelled.
The current crisis is structural, not merely populism or polarization.
Power is so diffused and fractured that meaningful reform is impossible — leading to "vetocracy," where everyone can block but no one can build.
Modern global neo-liberalism is disconnected from reality and competency, partly due to Friedrich von Hayek's message that government interference leads to serfdom.
The neoliberal paradigm rests on the delusion that human motivation is purely utilitarian, based on utility maximization, which many philosophers argue is an untestable assumption.
It subordinates human and community well-being to markets, presuming excess consumption suffices as recompense for inherent vassalage.
Historically, significant industries or key technologies have always involved planning and government encouragement; globalist liberal ideas are described as ideological or magical rather than scientific.
A historical remedy for political sclerosis—when a state becomes incompetent—is coercion through "proscription": formalized purges stripping elite interests of resources, property, and forcing obedience.
U.S. critic Walter Kirn predicts a shift in American priorities: less focus on philosophical or long-term political questions, more on competence.
Brussels and the EU technocracy are entranced by the Obama-era U.S. and hope to expunge Trump’s influence, mistaking cultural power for political power.
American conservatism is reportedly evolving into something rougher, less sentimental, more centralized, coercive, and radical.
Many in the middle class facing economic hardship despise the oligarchs and the Establishment, potentially moving toward violence.
The current U.S. administration values individual greatness and contributions to civilization; Trump is likened to Homer’s "kleos" and a figure seeking personal and national greatness.
Alternative comparisons for Trump include figures like the Gracchi, Tiberius, Caligula, or Nero; some argue the middle and working classes are suffering financially.
Economic hardship is exemplified by claims that nearly 40% of small businesses were destroyed after COVID-19, with billionaires doubling net worth — indicating upward wealth redistribution.
The economy is seen as artificially inflated by a stock market bubble, which will eventually burst, benefiting "big boys" while wiping out retirement funds.
The stock market is the primary indicator the mainstream cares about.
American exceptionalism is criticized as a key reason for the U.S.'s disregard for international laws and accountability.
Childhood Vaccines Cause Autism, a Review of 850 Studies Concludes by Rhoda Wilson
Toby Rogers reviews over 850 studies and concludes childhood vaccines cause autism.
This challenges the mainstream "science is settled" narrative, revealing no true consensus.
Rogers criticizes studies claiming no link, suggesting they are part of a "vaccine/autism cover-up."
He states CDC internal research shows MMR and thimerosal-containing vaccines cause autism.
Over $2 billion has been spent by the U.S. government on genetic studies, which have failed to explain more than 1% of cases.
Rogers argues that causation studies suffer from circular reasoning, assuming safety and not properly testing vaccine effects.
Specific assumptions include: vaccine studies assuming safety without proper placebos, gene studies ignoring vaccination status, and epigenetic studies assuming vaccines are not a factor despite toxicants in vaccines.
Autistic regression—children losing previously acquired skills—occurs in up to 88% of cases, suggesting toxic exposure.
Parent eyewitness testimonies link regression to 'well baby' vaccine appointments.
Six reliable studies comparing vaccinated versus unvaccinated children support the conclusion that vaccines increase autism risk about fourfold.
Vaccinating preemies, C-section delivery combined with vaccination, and vaccination without breastfeeding significantly raise risk.
The Expose claims government and Big Tech actively censor this information, relying solely on reader support, unlike mainstream outlets funded by government propaganda.
Disrupting Your Circadian Rhythm Will Increase The Risk For All Kinds Of Health Problems by Joachim Bartoll
Disrupting the 24-hour sleep/wake cycle harms cognitive function and increases risk for cardiovascular, metabolic, mental, and cancer-related diseases.
The body's natural rest, detox, and healing occur at night; interference causes toxin buildup and cellular damage.
The circadian rhythm is governed by a "master clock" in the brain and synchronized by environmental cues ("zeitgebers"): light, darkness, temperature, and social interactions.
Hormones like cortisol (day) and melatonin (night) regulate alertness and sleepiness; growth hormone is released during early sleep if bedtime is before 10 p.m.
Timing of activity matters; morning and daytime exercise is recommended, while evening activity interferes with winding down.
Studies show older adults with earlier, consistent activity patterns have better health metrics.
Modern life and diet have shortened lifespan; historically, humans could live 120–130 years, possibly 150 with a natural diet and limited toxins.
Today’s plant-based processed diets, drugs, vaccines, and toxins are blamed for halving natural lifespan.
Diet is crucial; consuming species-inappropriate foods, especially plants, poisons the body and reduces lifespan.
Recommendations include: sleeping 7 hours before 10 p.m., outdoor activity, early eating, and physical activity earlier in the day.
Humans are obligate hyper carnivores; late-night eating and post-evening exercise harm sleep, detox, and hormones.
NATO Is on the Verge of a Full-Blown War With Russia by Michael Snyder
Western nations providing long-range missiles to Ukraine now permit deep strikes into Russian territory.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz states there are no range limits on weapons supplied to Ukraine by Britain, France, Germany, or the U.S.
This escalation risks triggering nuclear war.
NATO is close to full-scale war with Russia, with potential nuclear consequences.
The author questions Western leaders’ decision-making, asking how the U.S. would react if missiles targeted major U.S. cities.
NATO, not Ukraine, will choose targets, with the U.S. providing targeting info.
Trump is seen as a potential peace broker but has recently criticized Putin and Zelenskyy.
Russia responded with skepticism, implying Trump’s comments indicate emotional overload, and thanking him for facilitating negotiations.
Russia is responding to Ukrainian attacks, including drones, with increased tensions.
An attempted drone attack on Putin is noted as a possible trigger for escalation.
Russia is strengthening alliances with Iran, formalizing military and economic cooperation under a 20-year agreement.
Pope Leo’s Subservience to the IRS by Jacob G. Hornberger
Due to U.S. law, Pope Leo, as an American citizen, must pay U.S. income taxes.
Refusal risks indictment, arrest, extradition, prosecution, and imprisonment.
The U.S. government insists no citizen, including the Pope, is above the law; income belongs to the federal government.
The case of Irwin Schiff exemplifies consequences for refusing to pay taxes.
Renouncing citizenship incurs an exit tax; refusal to pay leads to prosecution.
Historically, Americans lived without income taxes and the IRS for over a century.
Living under government seizure of income equates to serfdom, not freedom.
True freedom involves keeping and controlling one’s earnings.
The author advocates abolishing income tax and the IRS to restore sovereignty—using Pope Leo’s situation as a reminder.
Should Vance Have Kissed the Ring? by Eric Sammons
Vice President J.D. Vance, a Catholic, met Pope Leo.
Traditional greetings include bowing and kissing the ring; Pope Francis reportedly resists, Leo does not.
Vance chose to simply shake hands, citing U.S. protocol: representing America, not acting as an individual Catholic.
The author argues this was appropriate; customs are cultural, not moral or doctrinal obligations.
Omitting such customs does not equate to abandoning faith; it respects national protocol.
The Left Was Going To Ride the Race Grift All the Way To Permanent One-Party Rule by Paul Dragu
Democrats aimed to use race politics ("the race grift") to secure permanent one-party dominance.
They sought to buy loyalty of Black and Hispanic voters by claiming Republicans are racist.
The strategy is failing, with Democrats losing support nationally, per New York Times analysis.
Trump gained support in many Black and Hispanic counties; Republicans increased vote share in nearly half of U.S. counties.
Policies causing poverty are reducing Democratic support; lower median income areas tend to vote Republican.
The "trans movement" and cultural degeneracy may alienate socially conservative Black and Hispanic voters.
The author hopes the Democratic Party will vanish, leading to a more center-left MAGA coalition and a new constitutional-oriented right.
The Pentagon’s 'Salvador Option', Al Qaeda Government in Damascus by Michel Chossudovsky
Western media has portrayed Ambassador Robert Stephen Ford as a "moderate," but he actively supported extremist groups.
Ford is linked to the "Salvador Option," involving covert death squads and sectarian violence, as in Iraq.
He was involved in recruiting and training death squads prior to Syria's 2011 uprising.
Ford reportedly met with Syrian interim president Al-Sharaa, who had ties to Al Nusra.
He allegedly helped prepare Al-Sharaa for leadership, involving British intelligence.
This contradicts official statements about bringing Al Qaeda figures to justice in Syria.
This Dystopia Would Never Be Accepted Without Extensive Indoctrination by Caitlin Johnstone
Society is a backwards dystopia where moral truths are inverted; genocide and war are normalized.
Extensive conditioning and propaganda from childhood create this acceptance.
Children’s natural moral revulsion is suppressed through indoctrination.
The "empire" employs sophisticated propaganda to maintain this reality.
To see clearly, one must approach the world with "fresh eyes"—free from conditioning.
Living with clarity and intuition reveals the insanity of the societal "nightmare."
Trump Criticizes Neocons? by Tom Woods
There’s a shift among some toward questioning U.S. foreign policy and neoconservatism.
Skepticism grows as establishment narratives—about Covid, Russia, and war—are questioned.
"Isolationist" is redefined as questioning nation-building, military overreach, and costs.
Trump criticizes "Western interventionists" and "neocons," emphasizing local progress and failure of foreign interventions.
He claims interventionist policies caused more destruction than progress.
The author suggests skepticism of foreign policy elites is essential to avoid deception and unnecessary conflict.
☕️ HUMPHREY HOWLED ☙ Tuesday, May 27, 2025 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠 by Jeff Childers
President Trump's tariff negotiations are making progress, despite media claims to the contrary.
Countries like Japan, Spain, and Canada are paying billions for tariff relief; Japan’s auto industry particularly affected.
EU fast-tracked trade talks after Trump threatened 50% tariffs; divisions among EU states are exploited.
China’s economy struggles under trade war pressure; unemployment figures are withheld, indicating instability.
Mainstream media highlight concerns over vaccine access and link rising cancer rates to environmental factors, dismissing vaccine risks.
The Supreme Court granted Trump’s emergency request to remove two federal agency heads, potentially limiting bureaucratic overreach.
This move is seen as restoring presidential power, not expanding dictatorship.
A law firm petitioned the FDA to disclose that pertussis vaccines do not prevent infection; the FDA refused.
☕️ OH, HARVARD ☙ Wednesday, May 28, 2025 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠 by Jeff Childers
The Trump administration plans to cancel all federal funding to Harvard, pressuring the university financially.
Harvard faculty, like Francesca Gino, accused of misconduct and losing tenure, exemplify "civilizational rot."
Gino, a "nudger," manipulated behavior during the pandemic; her data falsification highlights decline in moral standards.
Harvard’s morgue manager, Cedric Lodge, pleaded guilty to selling stolen body parts—another sign of decay.
The institution is linked to darkening oceans, with reports of ocean darkening and geoengineering proposals involving aerosols.
Harvard’s Solar Geoengineering Research Program, funded partly by Bill Gates, aims to reflect sunlight, risking ecological damage.
Concerns include reduced photosynthesis, crop failure, and global starvation; scientists oppose geoengineering initiatives.
Atmospheric haze and contrail phenomena suggest possible aerosol campaigns—"chemtrails."
Harvard is portrayed as a "zombified cathedral" engaged in occult-like rituals—manipulating behavior, necromancy, and sun management—indicative of moral decay.
