-Caveat Lector-
Seems to be tradition that I do a Hippie rant, every once in a while, on CTRL. I
will limit myself to just one. I just have to state about all these weird war
games (since Vietnam actually) that I am convinced that something entirely
different is occurring behind the scenes on military bases and under the sheets of
the U.S. society. The past 3 months I have traveled throughout northern Europe
and throughout the midwestern U.S. People appear to be grouping and people look,
except for small children, quite frightened. The drug trade amongst minorities
appears to be winding down, the kids don't appear to have money much anymore,
their clothes show this. Society is having to face some important financial
changes now, esp. with perhaps Net trading becoming a way to distribute the wealth
differently, and more equitably, than the American Gulag wants (to control it).
And people are traveling in groups, seem to be scared to be even alone. It is
scarey. Quite. Traveling alone is scarey-er than it ever was. Some community
spotters are very hostile to outsiders in their areas and I noticed different uses
of different so-called non-lethal weapons in regions. If you notice this stuff,
are accustomed to it, it really does appear quite blatant. This article seems to
me in ways to be dated in terms of the lack of real view to it -- as does a great
deal of the news -- I have a new perspective on things.
The Dali Lama in NYC last week said some great things, penetrating the cult
silence, he said violence is pitting neighbors against one another in some very
real ways and that we are dividing up into two camps, the haves and have nots
(selected and unselected?). This is the American Gulag -- two ecomonic classes,
the recipe for facism (peasants and elite). And Richie Havens, at the REAL 99
Woodstock two days ago (Aug 15 - 17) said that "freedom" is in worse danger now
than ever -- I just about roared when I read his words: "The establishment was
wrong 30 years ago and the thing is STILL damn wrong for the SAME reasons..." --
you'd think after 30 years of Hippie Tries to straighten the crooked, corrupted
serpent cult crap out, we would have done it by now or at least raised children to
meet the challenge of a moral, free society opening up the belly of the beasts
real existance. No. Looks like Not. Now many of the Hippie's kids have bought
INTO it? The true leaders may still only be what is left of those leftist
thinkers -- 45 - 65 years old, what we may have left of the artists too are those
that haven't died yet. When the Gulag gets going even stronger, perhaps we will
have to face things in a different way. This new generation is ducking, covering
and assaulting people they don't know and with no regard for morality. This new
generation does not have visible leaders nor visible artists much nor visible
musicians much. Nope. Fame is a dirty word, it engenders paranoia. And frankly,
it appears that the counter-culture lost their children to another force.
If this country does not pass a zero pop growth AMENDMENT asap (to control
economics), and then begin publicizing exactly how the intl sex-porn syndicates
are tied to Intel agencies, and how these black projects actually operate, and IF
there truely are species amongst us which are not totally human, and publicize how
the govt has supported the training of a great many men in vicious mind control
tactics against others, we really are headed into some very very dicey cult crap.
God forbid, with the kids not knowing any better. I have learned something of
value in my travels, but some very hard to stomach things as well, and these
points and ideas, I will be putting on the Net in the next few weeks. I think it
is important material.
