Always Remember, War Is A Racketeering Operation (always has been and always will be)

On this day when we have been conditioned to glorify war as "necessary and honorable" let us take an honest look at the true nature of (and profiteers) of Modern Warfare

This will be a short post. I will be re-sharing my past posts on the subject of Wars being a for-profit enterprise (which are perpetuated using advanced life long psychological warfare ops and false flag operations) for those that are new to my blog and did not see those posts (last year and the year before).

But first, I would like to invite you to think about something. On this day we are overwhelmed with images and other forms of propaganda in schools, on the TV, the radio (and everywhere in between that statist regimes can reach) with a message that is intended to make us see warfare as necessary to “preserve freedom” and “protect democracy”.

We are told about war heroes and stories that involve situations like where a guy (or gal) chose to throw themselves on a grenade to protect their buddies on the frontline.

While a choice like this is certainly selfless and involves courage, have you ever stopped to ask yourself why that guy or gal was in that situation (in a place where two groups of humans have been pit against one another in a fight to the death by political, corporate and bankster interests) to begin with?

And have you ever asked yourself why something like a grenade (or a landmine, or a machine gun or a predator drone) exists (and continues to exist) in the first place?

Why are our tax dollars being used to continue to build more and more effective devices designed with the sole purpose of ending human life?

I`ll tell you why, because it is very profitable, that is why.

All throughout history, we have had wars instigated and perpetuated by statist regimes we were raised to trust and respect, money taken from us using the threat of violence (taxation) and given to war profiteering corporations.

And here in the year 2024, it turns out, you guessed it, War is Still a Racketeering operation in Gaza, Lebanon and on and on..

Considering the realities I exposed above, I would like to invite you to remember that we are not powerless when it comes to whether or not the racketeering operation that is war (whether it be kinetic warfare or psychological warfare) continues or not.

We can become an unstoppable global movement of satyagrahi. We can choose to continue to live our lives with joy, respect, purpose, love and clarity in our minds and hearts, refusing to affirm the legitimacy of insane fascist biosecurity mandates, technocratic edicts, war propaganda and peacefully do as those during the civil rights movement did.

We can choose to shine light on the truth through living by example and showing people there is a better path than fear, endless conflict, war and conformity to insanity.

We can show the oligarchs that we can thrive and exist in peaceful symbiosis with Mother Earth, each other and our fellow non-human beings without their dogmatic fear systems, wars, corporations, experimental synthetic products and corrupt degenerative government systems.

Finger pointing without taking responsibility for how our choices feed into the above listed parasitic industries/institutions is just scapegoating and excuse making. They cannot continue their deadly games without our complicity in supporting their systems.

In closing I will share another past essay that speaks to pathways I feel are viable in empowering us to starve the corporate parasites and chart a different path as communities and individuals that honors and nurtures life.

In truth, we are all the co-authors of this story, we cannot just point our finger accusingly at the ‘bad guys’ and then hope some ‘savior good guy’ will arrive and solve our problems for us. The actions each of us choose are the stepping stones and the beliefs we give our energy to are the mortar that holds them in place. We are all (each and everyone of us) the architects and sculptors of the path we find laid before our feet. Whether consciously or unconsciously we are weaving the fabric of the reality we will experience. Whether or not we give our time and energy to the scam of modern day statist regimes that call themselves democracies, We all ‘vote’ for what this consensus reality we all share will become tomorrow with our dollars (through what types of corporations and institutions we feed into perpetuating or withdrawing our support from), we ‘vote’ with our decision to speak truth (even when it is socially awkward or professionally risky) or outwardly conform (which in essence equates to ‘voting’ for the tyrants to stay in power and continue to garner more influence).

For this reason I included a section in Chapter 13 of my book (which is titled the Regenerating Communities and Nurturing The Gift Economy) that focuses on Voluntaryism.

Here is a link to some supplementary reading on that same subject which provides more in depth ideas (than I was able to fit into my book) relating to the immorality of involuntary governance (what we live under now) and the practicality of alternative ways of organizing our communities and broader society: https://ia802504.us.archive.org/10/items/the-voluntaryist-handbook-a-collection-of-essays-excerpts-and-quotes/The%20Voluntaryist%20Handbook.pdf

Each of us can do our part to become the antidote for a world full of humans that have been indoctrinated into a belief system that embraces endless war. We can chose to become beacons of peace, confidence and hope (embracing food and medicine sovereignty) and withdrawing as much of our support from institutions (that are responsible for perpetuating manufactured wars) as possible and instead choosing to focus our energy in the direction of healing communities, finding common ground and becoming the ones we have been waiting for.
