Hold strong: The cruelty increases with desperation

To be optimistic for once: It’s always darkest before dawn. That is, the reason that the elites are lashing out so cruelly is that they are getting more and more desperate as some of them can’t help but notice that the wheels are coming off of this whole rent-extraction contraption that they’ve built.

Sloppy Jenga TowerSome of the other are just yanking Jenga bricks out of the tower of the global economy as fast as they can, utterly oblivious to or uncaring about the degree to which they’re destabilizing their own future ability to pullout bricks.

They still have a lot of power but, in their desperation, they’re forced to invest increasing amounts of political capital to get what they want.

“The beatings will continue until morale improves.”

Just in the last year, we’ve seen a much-larger percentage of people switching from lulled and gulled consumers to captured consumers; they are still active participants but they now know that they’re being duped. You have to put a lot more work into keeping the balls in the air for a propaganda system where the participants are awake or waking up to it.

Their desperation and cruelty comes from trying to beat people back to sleep, á la “The beatings will continue until morale improves.”

As many more victims as their terrible rule will take, this is already an admission that it will come to an end. They are now legitimately terrified that this will happen.

“The reason why Western leaders have realized that they have to be even more cruel, and suppress speech even more actively hands-on.

“[…] This administration is doing things that actually undermine the very fabric of American society. Beyond colonial exploitation, beyond the death and destruction, beyond the upholding of violent systems like white supremacy, Americans actually at least had a couple things that they advocated for unconditionally, like free speech. And now they’re eroding that fundamental principle. They’re eroding that fundamental constitutional protection at the behest of a foreign state.

“And I’m telling you right now, I speak to Americans all the time, people from very different backgrounds than mine, and they’re angry, too. So, it’s up to all of us to activate them. It’s up to all of us to motivate them.

“Become undeniable, become unavoidable, and keep up the pressure no matter what.”
