How do you persuade a populace to embrace totalitarianism, that goose-stepping form of tyranny in which the government has all of the power and “we the people” have none? You persuade the people that the menace they face (imaginary or not) is so sinister, so overwhelming, so fearsome that the only way to surmount the danger is by empowering the government to take all necessary steps to quash it, even if that means allowing government jackboots to trample all over the Constitution. This is how you use the politics of fear to persuade a freedom-loving people to shackle themselves to a dictatorship.

My Family Fled Communism When I Was 6. Now We Fear Our Nightmare Has Followed Us Here
Can my cow fat skin-creams make me a target here in the United States similar to my dad in communist Romania? Following the State of the Union address, I found the state of the nation surreal. I kept skimming past articles about the Democratic Party’s proposed economic stimulus packages, collectively known as the Green New Deal. They propose to fund unsustainable sectors like solar panels—which are already heavily government-backed—by targeting more self-sufficient industries, like meat production. In order to earmark raiding the cookie jar of productive businesses to fund those that aren’t paying for themselves, Democrats have to demonize the target in order to implement punitive measures such as meat…

Earth to Trump: America Is ALREADY A Socialist Country
So it seems that something in Trump’s State of the Union speech has gotten the MAGA crowd all excited. Was it this? “My administration has acted decisively to confront the world’s leading state sponsor of terror: the radical regime in Iran. It is a radical regime. They do bad, bad things.” Or this? “Two weeks ago, the United States officially recognized the legitimate government of Venezuela — (applause) — and its new President, Juan Guaidó. (Applause.)” Well, yes, probably. But the money quote that government cheerleaders will be shoving down your throat for years to come is no doubt this: “Tonight, we renew our resolve that America will never be…

Starving Venezuelans’ Warnings To The U.S.: “Socialism Is A Big Lie!”
Lured in by the lies socialists tell about how great it would be to have government control every aspect of everyone’s lives, Venezuelans are now disgusted with how much they have suffered. Some are even warning the United States about their horrific daily lives in socialist Venezuela. Venezuela is a perfect example of a democrats dream “democratic socialism.” However, people are starving and digging through trash cans in order to find the least rotten food to eat. “You do not ever want anything close to socialism,” one Venezuelanprotestor told Campus Reform, a college news website. During a recent rally at Washington, several other Venezuelan victims of socialism also warned against the dangers of…

Finally Admitted! “New” Tech Can Beam Voices Directly into Your Head
Well, if you’ve seen our film ‘The Minds of Men’ already, or otherwise looked into it, then it won’t surprise you, but this is very real technology that is now in the process – apparently – of being mainstreamed and justified as a useful commodity. You won’t believe how they are justifying using tech to beam voices directly into people’s heads! (And that, after decades of painting people into the ‘paranoid’ and ‘crazy’ corner, filled with tin foil) Source: Truthstream Media January 27, 2019 Aaron and Melissa Dykes Related Posts:Social Media, Universal Basic Income, and Cashless Society: How China’s Social Credit System Is Coming To AmericaScience Is Starting to Catch…

Beware the Emergency State: Imperial, Unaccountable and Unconstitutional
“For seven decades we have been yielding our most basic liberties to a secretive, unaccountable emergency state – a vast but increasingly misdirected complex of national security institutions, reflexes, and beliefs that so define our present world that we forget that there was ever a different America. … Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness have given way to permanent crisis management: to policing the planet and fighting preventative wars of ideological containment, usually on terrain chosen by, and favorable to, our enemies. Limited government and constitutional accountability have been shouldered aside by the kind of imperial presidency our constitutional system was explicitly designed to prevent.”— David C. Unger, The…

10 Numbers That Prove That We Are Rapidly Becoming A Nation Of Government Dependents
Source: The Economic Collapse Michael Snyder As the middle class disintegrates and poverty grows, more Americans than ever are becoming dependent on the government just to survive. Today, we live in a country where most workers do not earn enough to support a middle class family, and we are seeing the homelessness crisis spiral out of control in major cities on both coasts. During this election cycle, many conservatives have been freaking out that an increasing number of Democrats are openly embracing socialism, but the truth is that we are already most of the way to becoming a socialist country. In fact, as you will see below, more than half…

The Enemy Of Humanity Will Never, Ever Look Like This Again
Source: Caitlin Johnstone Rogue Journalist September 29, 2018 Caitlin Johnstone There will never, ever be another Adolf Hitler. History doesn’t repeat itself. Human behavior patterns repeat themselves, because humans are deeply conditioned animals, but history doesn’t repeat itself. Anyone who says it does is confused about how time works. Consumers of mainstream culture have been trained to watch out for the next Hitler the way evangelical Christians are trained to watch for the second coming of Jesus. References to Hitler are ubiquitous in movies, television, literature, and of course in political discourse, and understandably so; he is the clearest, purest example of evil in living memory. A genocidal dictator leading…

I Really Don’t Feel Like Submitting To Socialist Tyranny. Do You?
Source: The Burning Platform September 6, 2018 by Kurt Schlichter Socialism’s legacy is heaps of bloody corpses scattered across a landscape of hunger and despair, but the youthful neo-commie hipsters infesting our colleges and coastal cities want to give it another try here and now since they’re smart and they won’t screw it up this time. Uh huh. Because when I look at millennials, I see a generation of achievers – achieving unbroken eye contact with their iPhones, achieving hitherto unimagined heights of undeserved self-regard, and achieving convincing their parents to support them into middle age. If anyone can make socialism work – by which I mean the pipe dream…

Socialism: So Bad Women Are Willing To Be Sexually Abused To Escape It
Source: SHTFplan August 1, 2018 Mac Slavo The democratic socialist nation of Venezuela’s collapse is showing just how far people will go in order to escape the horrors of big government. In fact, the situation in Venezuela has gotten so bad that women are willing to risk being sexually abused in human trafficking rings in order to escape the horrors of socialism. Unfortunately, the harsh reality of government is bearing down on real people and making life incredibly miserable for those stuck in Venezuela. It’s also no walk in the park for those who have managed to escape. The Washington Post detailed one woman’s plight, and it’s a disturbing and harrowing…
