The Trick

In 2009, New York Times journalist David Barstow won the Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting. He wrote in the run-up to the Iraq War that every single major media network had featured pro-war "impartial experts" who were in fact government sock puppets from the Pentagon. Barstow's report revealed how the government, the Pentagon, and all the major television networks misled Americans into war.

As Robert Evans wrote in Five Stories the Media Doesn't Want You to Know About...

"When Barstow won the Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting in 2009, most television pundits were busy hyping swine flu. Brian Williams had the balls to report that the paper had won five Pulitzers, and even mentioned the subject of three of the stories they'd won for. He just chose not to mention the one they got for pointing out that he's a government stooge."

That Pulitzer Prize winning story went down the Memory Hole, and the war criminals walk free.

Do We Know What The Word "Over" Means?

Apparently not.

The other team won. They took the ball, got on the bus, and went back to their gated communities. Just because we're still wandering around the field doesn't mean there's a game still going on.

The Occupy Movement will last until The State moves them out. It will be brutal. It will be violent. And it will not be covered truthfully on the Nightly News. Oh there will be hundreds if not thousands of cell-phone videos of The State wiping out the Occupy Movement on YouTube but the story most Americans will believe will be the one presented on their wide-screen TV's. They didn't tell us the truth about Iraq ... why would we think they'll honestly cover the routing of the Occupy Movement?

We've got to realize that psychopaths play for keeps and they have enough power to use it to stay in power. They don't play the Right vs. Left Game. They control the game. They push buttons to make Conservatives jump one way and Liberals jump another.

Imagine for a moment John McCain winning the presidency in 2008. Imagine the response from Liberals when McCain announces the surge in Afghanistan. Imagine the responses from Liberals about the handling of BP's oil blowout in the Gulf, the talk of "clean coal," or revitalizing the nuclear power industry. Though it might make Liberals cry ... Obama's only job as our first black president was to sell us a load of crap we wouldn't take from John McCain.

So they won. We lost.

Now what?

As Clinton Callahan wrote in Beware the Psychopath, My Son...

"There are only two things that can bring a psychopath under submission:

"1. A bigger psychopath.

"2. The non-violent, absolute refusal to submit to psychopathic controls no matter the consequences.

"If individuals simply sat down and refused to lift a hand to further one single aim of the psychopathic agenda, if people refused to pay taxes, if soldiers refused to fight, if government workers and corporate drones and prison guards refused to go to work, if doctors refused to treat psychopathic elites and their families, the whole system would grind to a screeching halt."

Well ... it isn't possible to fight established psychopaths with bigger, meaner, crazier psychopaths. So, to survive, we must pursue option 2.

We can't follow Gandhi's, "You must be the change you want to see in the world." Because personal change doesn't equal social change. Go ahead. Change yourself all you want to because the psychopath doesn't give a rat's ass about your personal growth.
