Unhappy Thoughts For the Fourth of July

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

The human race, being a collection of stupids, continues to make decisions that imperil itself.

For example, a simple mistake in a warning system about incoming ICBMs can end all life on earth.  The supersmart idiots who invented nuclear weapons did not think about the possible unintended consequences of their handiwork.  They wanted to defeat the Nazis, and that was the limit of their imagination.

If you don’t like that example, consider this one.  The digital revolution has made us dependent on communications and control systems, such as those that operate power systems, that can be fried by superflares, which the sun on which we depend has every 2 or 3 thousand years, and shut down by hackers.  https://www.airspacemag.com/daily-planet/yet-another-looming-disaster-180972494/?spMailingID=40059465&spUserID=NzQwNDU0NzQ5NDMS1&spJobID=1542273286&spReportId=MTU0MjI3MzI4NgS2

As I understand it, the same thing can happen from a nuclear blast in the atmosphere.  When power systems go down, nuclear reactors can overheat and produce Fukushima meltdowns.  Try to image the consequences of a large number of such meltdowns.  Yet, we have adopted a technology that subjects us to these kind of risks as well as to an Orwellian police state existence.

Why?  Because the human race is mindless.  Unlike highly intelligent non-human animals who are capable of rational decisions, humans can’t see beyond the end of their noses. The smell of money is what they respond to.

And there are health risks of technology, such as those associated with the rollout of 5G.  See for example:  https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2019/06/29/5g-the-stupidest-idea-in-the-history-of-the-world/

Nevertheless, 5G is rolling out as it serves material interests, that is, corporate profits.  The external costs of these profits, if the many dissenting scientists and medical professionals are correct, will greatly exceed in medical bills, infertility, anguish, shortened life spans, and so forth, the totality of profits from 5G.

But don’t think your government, or the 5G corporations care.

Americans take their soma in the form of brainwashing and have become brainwashed sheep.  As far as I can tell, they will remain brainwashed sheep until they are beat into non-existence. Are brainwashed people capable of rebellion?

No one on the coming 4th of July will call for an uprising against our easily identified oppressors.  The reason is that everyone allowed to speak publicly is in the pay of our oppressors.

Americans are so firmly locked into The Matrix that it is problematic that they can be rescued.

When the world faces “the Great American Democracy,” the world faces a brainwashed public in the grip of material interests who are backed up by nuclear weapons, controls over the use of which have been consistently removed since the Clinton regime.

On the Fourth of July brainwashed Americans will wave the flag and chant: USA, USA, USA.

Yes PCR, a hand full of tribes play majority roles in the somnambulating Civilization we have constructed.

The Stupid People, which is, by far, the largest tribe on Earth.
The Tribe that has an uncanny knack with the money.
The Violent tribes.
And a very small, powerful, extremely prosperous, highly pampered tribe known as the Evil Fuckers. They laugh and play while they stay behind the stage out of any kleig light.

As soon as the System breaks down due to any of those Tribes’ leaders and their henchmen jeenyusses in IT, politics, the Military, there will be a cosmic fireworks show filled with frolic: EBT cards not working, computer failure,Ebola pandemic, EMP blast, nuclear war, ….wunderbar, yes?

Until then we will have just have to settle for watching (and avoiding) stupid people, violent people, and all the rest of the somnambulists. For the fireworks we will just have to be satisfied with Fourth of July fireworks displays in the U.S.A.

Will those doing the chanting be democrat communists or just plain old democrat socialists. Too bad patriotism is not the primary “ism” in America today.

The mindless stupidity PCR speaks of is bipartisan, equally, not one more than the other.

Good fucking grief.

Furthering the NUCLEAR HOAX on the eve of July 4th?

http://mileswmathis.com/trinity.pdf

Use your fucking brains people.

Even if they went boom- which they don’t- why would you build thousands of ultimate death machine weapons (megatons of TNT seriously?) when it would be far safer and far more PROFITABLE to just fake them? You know… a hoaxed zillion dollar weapons program shared and sabre-ratted among the Jewish-governed governments on the UN Permanent Security Council.

Not a single nuke used in warfare or terrorism in 74 years? What a joke. The money was just funneled into conventional war, just like NASA’s money and they their fake moon landings.

Hiroshima is looking pretty good today after the conventional firebombing (sold to the public as nuclear bombing along with Nagasaki) cleaned out all the clutter.

Miles Mathis IS interesting to read. Really. He’s also a total fucking moran.

Be careful you don’t become infected (although it seems to have already happened).

Well, while old Paul does tend to wander around a bit, it is hard to argue with his first paragraph. We see the proof in that pudding here every day.

The doctors and medical industrial complex doesn’t make any money if you’re well. More sickness = more money.
Infertility cuts down on the population explosion.
Shortened life spans are a way to get out of paying the various unfunded pension plans and SSI due.
5G maybe a valid reason for the often made fun of tinfoil hat.
