US Military Apologizes For Posting Uncomfortably Honest Tweet One of the biggest obstacles in getting people to realize how deeply propagandized they are is the cognitive dissonance which comes rushing in when one considers the implications of viewing the world free from the lens of military psychological manipulations. The sociopathic propaganda engine slipping up and stirring the populace from their slumber is nothing to complain about, the actual reality of our actual situation is.

Leaked Mueller Report Proves Barr Lied; Collusion Theorists Vindicated The walls are closing in on Trump. Needless to say, this completely vindicates the many alert reporters who rightly pointed out that Barr's assertions about the Mueller report could be gravely dishonest, and that there was no way to know whether or not it had determined collusion between Trump and the Russian government.

Nothing In Any Conspiracy Theory Is As Bad As What's Being Done Out In The Open If we could see with fresh eyes what is being done to us and our fellow man right out in the open, we would recoil and fall to the ground trembling in abject terror. The only reason we don't treat these terrible things like what they are is because they have been normalized for us to the point where we take them for granted and assume that's the only way things could possibly be.

Hating Neocons Is Becoming Mainstream Again, And It Is Excellent The idea that it's fine and normal for America and its tight network of allies to use any force necessary to ensure world dominance and anyone who says otherwise is a Russian agent has been hammered into mainstream consciousness over the last two years, and it's going to take a lot of work to extract it.

Trump Assassinates Iran's War Hero, Risking All-out War The US has admitted to assassinating Iran's most beloved military leader, General Qassem Soleimani, in a drone strike which seems very likely to ignite a full-scale war. Six others are also reported killed, including Iraqi militia commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis. Gen Qassem was well-known and hugely popular

Revolution Is Racist. Populism Is Sexist. Economic Justice Is Homophobic. After their failed attempt to use Trump's far-right following to make his fanatically neoconservative opponent look electable in 2016, they simply shifted to using the exact same tactic for 2020. This is less about getting a more presentable face in the White House than it is about herding rank-and-file Americans into supporting the neoliberal neoconservative power structure

In Refusing To Defend Assange, Mainstream Media Exposes Its True Nature Mainstream media outlets and those who thrive within them have no intention of rocking the boat and losing their hard-earned privilege and access. Conservative mass media will continue to defend the US president, and liberal media will continue to defend the CIA and the FBI. Their silence is a tacit admission that they are nothing other than stenographers and propagandists for the most powerful forces on earth.

Flirting with Nuclear Holocaust, US Cyberattacks Russia's Power Grid NYTimes has published an anonymously sourced report titled "U.S. Escalates Online Attacks on Russia's Power Grid" about the placement of potentially crippling malware inside the Russian power grid. If Russia had done this to the US, we have vowed a nuclear retaliation. In 1962, the world was almost blown up in a face-off over missiles in Cuba. Today's crisis is more serious because the man in the White House is clueless.

Jeffrey Epstein Dies Of "Suicide" Some reports claim that Epstein has been on suicide watch due to a prior alleged suicide attempt three weeks ago when he was found unconscious with bruising on his neck, others deny it. If he wasn't, it's weird because he obviously should have been, and if he was it's weird because it failed.

Duped in a confusing, abrasive world where it's hard enough just to get your legs underneath you and figure out which way's up, let alone come to a conscious truth-based understanding of what's going on in the world. But the people doing the duping are having a hard time holding onto everyone's hand, and their grip is slipping. We'll find our way out of this dark room yet.

Twitter's 'Hide Replies' Function Serves To Appease The Elitists Of The Political/Media Class I honestly think the annoyingness of a certain candidate's supporters on Twitter prevents other reporters/analysts from pointing out that said candidate's campaign obviously isn't going that well," griped the popular statistician/establishment narrative manager Nate Silver

In A Society Built On War, We Must Do More Than Just Prefer Peace it is not enough to merely not be a warmonger. It is not enough to simply have a preference for peace. Our responsibility to truth and justice does not end in our non-participation in warmongering, because the wars go on regardless.

Mass Media's Phony Freakout Over Bernie's WaPo Criticism Is Backfiring The ability of the ruling class to manipulate the way people think, act and vote is the only thing stopping the public from using the power of their numbers to force real changes and create a new system that is not built upon endless war, ecocide and exploitation. The mass media propaganda engine is now at its weakest and most vulnerable point ever.

Biden Can't Return Things To Normal, Because Trump Is A Normal US President. That's The Problem. Wanting America to go back to how it was before Trump is wanting the conditions which gave rise to Trump. This is like landing at the bottom of a well and wishing you could go back in time to a few moments earlier when you were merely falling down the well.

There Are No War Heroes. There Are Only War Victims. The real problem is that the United States starts unjust wars constantly and spends soldiers' lives like pennies. It probably is nice for the families of war victims to tell themselves comforting stories about how their loved ones died fighting to make the world a better place, but people are dying here. Human lives are more important than the psychological comfort of those who would prefer to lie to themselves.

Five Reasons I'm Excited About Tulsi Gabbard's Candidacy Hawaii Representative Tulsi Gabbard has announced her intent to campaign for President of the United States. She's not perfect, she's a major long shot to actually win, but Tulsi Gabbard's campaign for president will definitely shake things up in all the right places, and good things will come from it. Which is why all the right people are outraged by her bid today.

The persecution of Assange is so blatantly, obviously wrong that the only thing stopping people from seeing it is empire propaganda. You don't have to be well-read. You don't even have to be smart. You just have to have to have eyes that are unfiltered by narrative manipulation. Anyone with common sense and a beating heart in their chest can see this is wrong.

The Empire Keeps Proving Assange Right About Everything What we now know for certain: that a vast, sprawling superpower, with so many extremely tight alliances that it is effectively the center of a globe-spanning empire, is working to extradite an Australian journalist from an Ecuadorian embassy in the United Kingdom so that it can punish him for publishing facts.

The Persistent Myth That Trump Opposes War The notion that Donald Trump is some kind of peace president, or even the notion that he puts any more inertia on the US war machine than his predecessor did, is contradicted by all facts and evidence we have available to us. Trump has not ended a single one of the wars his predecessors started, and has added dangerous escalations against Venezuela, Iran, and nuclear-armed Russia.

Chelsea Manning Supporters Raise A Quarter Million Dollars In Two Days In just two days after Manning was released from prison, more than 6,000 donors banded together to pay off the $258,000 fine assigned at a thousand dollars a day by a federal judge on top of imprisonment to coerce her to testify. Fundraising was so enthusiastic that it had overshot the goal and reached $267,002 before the GoFundMe was closed.

America's Two-Headed One-Party System There's a scene from John Steinbeck's The Pearl that's been coming back to me over and over again ever since I started writing about US politics. I find it amazing that this scene hasn't become a political meme yet, given Steinbeck's fame and given its perfect illustration of the fake two-party system that we see in western so-called democracies.

New CNN Assange Smear Piece Is Amazingly Dishonest, Even For CNN CNN has authored an unbelievably brazen and dishonest smear piece on Julian Assange, easily the most egregious article of its kind since the notoriously bogus Assange-Manafort report by The Guardian last year. It contains none of the "exclusive" documents which it claims substantiate its smears, relying solely on vague unsubstantiated assertions and easily debunked lies to paint the WikiLeaks founder in a negative light.

More Evidence That The UK's Russia Narrative Is A Verdict In Search Of A Crime There are no crime scene forensics implicating the Russian government as evidenced by how ridiculously all-over-the-place the narrative about how the poisoning occurred is, and there are no laboratory forensics proving a connection to the Russian government. According to the spokesperson's statement, that leaves only the say-so of British intelligence agencies.

Corrupt and unaccountable power has responded by detaining, silencing and smearing him. The persecution of Assange has proved his thesis about the world absolutely correct.

Moreno: Assange Can Remain At Embassy, So Long As He Doesn't Practice Journalism The western empire's agenda to silence a dissident journalist, which President Moreno is now fully facilitating, proves beyond a doubt that the world needs the truth-spreading work of WikiLeaks more than ever, and it proves that Ecuador was right to shelter him from persecution in the first place. Walking back on that to fall into imperial sycophancy after all these years is shameful.

Assange's Imprisonment Reveals Even More Corruption Than WikiLeaks Did The completely fraudulent arrest and imprisonment of Julian Assange arguably exposes more malfeasance by government and media powers than than what has been revealed in all WikiLeaks publications combined since its inception. And we can use that as a weapon in waking the world up to the dystopian manipulations of the powerful, in the same way we can use WikiLeaks publications.

Not because of our impeccable manners or our sparkling personality, but because our skin is a certain color.

Why aren't they providing for their kids? Why isn't money going toward giving their children quality healthcare and education and making sure they have everything they need? Are they poor? Is there some sort of substance abuse problem?

Belmarsh Prison Inmates Prove More Ethical Than Entire Western Empire Inmates of Belmarsh prison had a superior understanding of Assange's plight because they wouldn't have been affected by media narratives. They would simply have seen what's right in front of them, with their own eyes: a nonviolent prisoner being caged in solitary confinement 23 hours a day for no discernible reason.

How To Actually Effectively Cope With Your Covid-19 Anxiety A lot of people, especially the "plugged-in" types who like to pay close attention to what's going on in the world, are getting into some looping stress patterns over the Covid-19 pandemic that are unnecessary, unhealthy, and unhelpful.

The Trump Administration Is Losing The Narrative Battle Over Iran I'm expected to write something about the Trump administration's warmongering against Iran over an attack on a Saudi oil refinery, because that's typically what I do in this ongoing improvisational exercise of mine: I write about the behavior of the US war machine and the propaganda that is used to bolster it.

Eight Thoughts On The Christchurch Attack Three people are currently in custody in New Zealand for terrorist attacks on two mosques in Christchurch. As of this writing, 49 people are dead and 48 people are being treated for gunshot wounds. Explosives were found in two vehicles but none were detonated. It was the worst attack of its kind in New Zealand's history.

Narrative Is Crumbling Over five decades, the Overlords have taken control of the media which Americans rely on for news, and simultaneously conducted psychological research on how to influence peoples' thinking. They have been devastatingly effctive propagating obvious lies and getting huge numbers of people to trust them. But in 2020, the lies are becoming so outrageous that average people are beginning to question their source.

Some attempts to explain these things will come from a well-informed and intellectually honest place, and some will come from a myopic and intellectually dishonest place.

In their own land, where their own daughters and sons will be impacted. They focus solely on shaky allegations against a target of the CIA and the Pentagon which are alleged to have happened in Sweden.

Assange Sentenced 50 Weeks For Bogus Bail Charge Assange is charged with "conspiring" to help Chelsea Manning avoid detection while leaking evidence of US war crimes and malfeasance, which is something any investigative journalist who publishes leaks would do. The charge is a bunch of words designed to twist standard journalistic practices into just enough of a crime to get Assange onto US soil for "non-political" reasons.

Assorted Thoughts On Politics, Humanity, And The World Russophobia and an uncritical emphasis on Trump has been used to scaremonger an annoyingly large percentage of American progressives from focusing on wanting change to focusing on wanting things to go back to how they used to be. Wanting things to go back to how they used to be is wanting the conditions which created Trump.

Daily Inspiration — Just Because We could only hide our leaf wings for so long. One day a man sneered at an old woman on a bus in Ballarat, and she said, "You're not fooling anyone, Gaia." Suddenly great wings with leaves for feathers burst from his jacket, and from the back of her heavy coat, and from the backs of everyone on the bus, one by one.

Prison Is Neoliberalism's Social Safety Net: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix "The problem with trying to work within the system to fix the system is that the system is not broken; it's working exactly as intended."

Assange Has Been Arrested For US Extradition. The Time To Act Is Now. The same government which tortured Chelsea Manning is in the process of extraditing her publisher so that they can silence him forever. Everyone who has ever denied that this was happening needs to hang their heads in shame for scoffing at a very real threat to press freedoms everywhere when they could have been opposing this obscene agenda. It's time for some serious soul searching.

Imperialism Is Capitalism's Life Support System: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix Without the US-centralized empire constantly sabotaging socialist governments, propping up global financial institutions and controlling commerce and currency at gunpoint, capitalism would've died long ago.

US Re-Imprisons Manning To Force Her To Testify Against WikiLeaks The United States government has just re-imprisoned one of the nation's greatest whistleblowers to coerce her into helping to destroy the world's greatest leak publisher, both of whom exposed undeniably true facts about war crimes committed by that same United States government. Truth tellers are being actively persecuted by this same power structure.

America's Long History of Trying to Determine Who Rules Syria The CIA organized its very first coup in Syria in 1949 to overthrow a democratically elected president and install a military dictator. The U.S. has never given up trying to determine who rules Syria, comments Caitlin Johnstone

Want To Serve The Empire? Help Circulate Its Propaganda Narratives! All you have to do to help ol' Uncle Sam spark off them shiny lil' Tomahawk missiles and incinerate those goofy foreigners for geostrategic control and Raytheon shareholder profits is this: just go around repeating the same stuff your buddies at the US State Department say about governments we don't like.

Trump Supporters Are Hurting Assange With Their 4-D Chess Talk At a time when everyone should be out in the streets shaking the earth and protesting the Trump administration's prosecution of Julian Assange for exposing US war crimes, those who continue to support this president have one message and one message only when it comes to the WikiLeaks founder: Don't do anything. Relax, wait and see, trust Trump, and don't do anything.

Why Australians Should Fight To Bring Assange Home Prominent Australian/British WikiLeaks activist Somerset Bean has launched a GoFundMe with the simple goal of circulating 1,000 giant posters throughout Australian cities in the lead-up to our May 18th elections calling for Julian Assange to be brought home. The posters urge Australians to contact their representatives and put political pressure on them to stand up for one of our nation's best and brightest stars.

"Assange Is Not A Journalist!" Yes He Is, Idiot. Anyone with a functioning brain can see that Julian Assange is indeed a journalist. Publishing facts so that the citizenry can inform themselves about what's going on in their world and what's happening with their government is the thing that journalism is. Duh. The need for an informed citizenry is the entire reason why press freedoms are protected so explicitly under the US Constitution.

Another Gem from Caitlin Johnstone Whoever has the gold makes the rules, but whoever controls the narrative determines who gets the gold. What's coming up in a mere generation or so is one of three possibilities: total freedom, total slavery, or total annihilation. Sorry centrists, there is no incremental option. Humans are such explosively beautiful wizard giants. It would be a goddamn shame if we wiped ourselves out before truly seeing that.

There Are No War Heroes, Only War Victims: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix It's still really, really weird that we don't all talk about Yemen all the time. It's like there's someone in the room being tortured with a blowtorch and we're all just chatting about politics at the dinner table without noticing.
