So many warnings, so many solutions, and so many
people who couldn’t care less.
LONG AGO: A man named Noah (the
conspiracy theorist of his time) warns his people that
a great flood is fast approaching. His preparations
for the event are largely dismissed as crazy, and he
is constantly the subject of ridicule and mockery.
Even as the heavy rains turn torrential; the people
continue to laugh, eat, drink and dance…right up until
the water level rises high enough to sweep them all
away.
1912: As the
RMS
Titanic takes on water; word spreads among the
passengers that they must prepare to abandon ship.
Many refuse to board lifeboats because they are
convinced that the vessel cannot sink. Some stay in
the lounges to socialize while others return to their
cabins and fall fast asleep. The lifeboats aboard the
Titanic
have the capacity to accommodate 2/3 of the
passengers, but many of them are sent away nearly
empty because some people refuse to take the crisis
seriously.
1913: While treasonous
politicians conspire to relinquish control of the U.S.
economy over to European central banks; Congressman
Charles Lindbergh, Sr. warns:
“This Act [the
Federal
Reserve Act, Dec. 23rd 1913] establishes
the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President
[Woodrow Wilson] signs the Bill; the
invisible government of the Monetary Power will be
legalized. The people may not know it
immediately, but the day of reckoning is only a few
years removed. The worst legislative crime of the
ages is perpetrated by this banking and currency
Bill. The new law will create inflation whenever the
trusts want inflation. From now on, depressions will
be scientifically created.”
His warning is ignored, and by 1929, America falls
victim to its first “scientifically created”
depression.
PRESENT DAY: The United States
has entered into yet another “scientifically
created” depression—brought about by the same
unsound money policies—controlled by the same corrupt
banking cartels.
Somewhere in America; a young man wearing an “End
the Fed” T-shirt stands alone—across the street from a
Federal Reserve Bank—shouting the prophetic words of
Thomas
Jefferson through an amplified bullhorn:
“If the American People allow private banks to
control the issuance of their currency, first by
inflation and then by deflation, the banks and
corporations that will grow up around them will
deprive the People of all their Property until their
Children will wake up homeless on the continent their
Fathers conquered.”
Many passerbys snicker while others stop to stare.
A marked police cruiser pulls to the curb and demands
that the young man leave the public sidewalk. He
reminds the officer of his first amendment right of
free speech and peaceful assembly. The officer
reminds him that he couldn’t care less. He
pulls a Taser from his utility belt and fires two
probes into the boy’s chest—sending him to the
ground—where is subdued, and then loaded into the
backseat of the cruiser before being hauled away.
Among the gathering crowd, few gasp in disbelief
but are afraid to say a word. Others point and laugh
while the rest join in a morbid cacophony of cheers
and applause.
It is a scene that is becoming far too common.
Across America, peaceful dissent and protest is being
met with brute force, while ordinary citizens stand on
the sidelines watching in amusement as the face of
their fellow countrymen meet the stamping boot of the
police state.
The
Constitution has become a relic, and those who
live by it are becoming a nuisance to those who would
like to see it torn to shreds. Word has come down
from on high that these protests must end. A new
strategy to quell dissent is being deployed through
mainstream media personalities, who have been given
orders to reign in their flocks by controlling and
limiting their mode of expression.
In the days leading up to
Glenn Beck’s
“Restoring Honor” rally, the self-described
rodeo clown instructed attendees not to bring
signs or posters. Most complied, some chose instead
to bring flags or dress up in colorful “period piece”
costumes.
Weeks later, in a two minute segment of his Fox
television program, Beck addressed his obedient flock
and pleaded for them to abandon their signs and
costumes altogether. He referenced a new website by
Think Progress, which
Beck alledges was launched, “for the sole
purpose of making you in to the crazy costume person,
the racist or the conspiracy theorist. They are going
to try to make you into anything that you are not.”
Instead of encouraging his viewers to be
discriminating in the signs they hoist or the clothes
they wear, he suggested that his viewers give in to
the criticism. Beck told his people to, “Dress
normally” and to, “Take the signs down.”
He then shared about a conversation he had with his
daughter, who suggested that she really didn’t care
what people said about her clothing. His fatherly
response to her was, “well, other people do,”
and then concluded by suggesting that the
lesson for the day was: “Don't give the media even
a chance to typecast you.”
This is a clever psy-op using lots of double speak.
Beck is actually conditioning his people to be shamed
over the use of signs, loud speech and clothing with
political statements. By instructing his people to
avoid criticism, he is actually projecting that he
concurs with the criticism itself.
Once these people accept that this behavior is a
social faux pas, they too will join into the criticism
and demonization of those who hold signs, use
bullhorns or wear T-shirts with statements like
“9/11 Was an Inside Job,” or “Don’t Tread on
Me.”
Beck also suggested to his viewers that instead of
bringing signs, they should bring their children.
This is an even more sinister plan. The idea here is
to use children as a tool to further demonize
protestors. At certain events, Beck’s “quiet” minions
will show up—with their sons or daughters in tow—and
confront more passionate demonstrators and remind them
to, “Keep it down-- children are present.”
I’m sure you can envision how that will look on the
evening news.
But this strategy to quell dissent is not confined
to the establishment right. The establishment left
has its own plan, ripped straight from the pages of
leftist icon
Saul Alinsky’s “Rules
for Radicals.” Rule #5 of that book states:
"Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.
It is almost impossible to counteract ridicule. Also
it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to
your advantage."
On October 30, 2010—the Daily Show’s
Jon Stewart and Stephan Colbert of the
Colbert
Report will be staging duel rallies in
Washington D.C. to spoof Glenn Beck’s “Restoring
Honor” rally and the
Tea
Party movement in general.
While we all enjoy good satire from time to
time—even when the ribbing is done at our
expense—these particular events should not be merely
taken at face value.
The home page for Jon Stewart’s “Rally To Restore
Sanity,” describes the event as,
“…a rally for the people who've been too busy
to go to rallies, who actually have lives and families
and jobs (or are looking for jobs)… Think of our event
as Woodstock, but with the nudity and drugs replaced
by respectful disagreement.”
Respectful disagreement? This is sure a stark
contrast to the liberal left that pioneered the
explosive, ‘in-your-face’ anti-war, anti-fascist
movement of the 1960’s and 70’s. Today, the liberals
seem to have no time for that. But apparently some
will at least be able to find the time to attend a
mock rally of tomfoolery that serves no other purpose
than to further alienate the left from the right.
The page goes on to read, “We're looking for
the people who think shouting is annoying,
counterproductive, and terrible for your throat…bring
your indoor voice”
Yeah, God forbid that we annoy our oppressors with
our grievances or scratch our throats while exercising
our first amendment rights. The reason we’re in the
mess we’re in is because too many people have been
using their “indoor voice” for too many
years. Silence and complacency are the only things
that are counterproductive. I shutter to think what
might have happened if
Paul
Revere had been stopped midway through his
midnight ride and convinced that his “shouting”
was “annoying” and “counterproductive.”
The liberals have lost their mojo when it comes to
demonstrations. Their recent attempts to counter the
Tea Party movement with a Coffee Party movement have
thus far been an epic failure. During the Bush years,
there was at least some semblance of an anti-war
movement. But as soon as Obama took office, that all
but disappeared.
The popularity and effectiveness of
Town
Hall confrontations and Tea Party
demonstrations has overshadowed the liberal voice.
Now, they are turning to more drastic measures by
using ridicule to shame and silence their opposition.
Even some Tea Party groups, who many believe are
free of establishment control, are starting to sound
like they have been co-opted, and are preaching the
same rhetoric as Glenn Beck.
Amy Kremer, chairman of the Tea Party Express,
recently said, "The time has come for us to put
down the protest signs and pick up the campaign signs
and get engaged. We have stood on the sidelines for
long enough protesting."
So now we have both the establishment left and
right working in concert to stifle the steadfast
American tradition of dissent. The right will be
cordial, the left will laugh and the criminals in our
government will have nice quiet streets to travel down
as they take this country straight to Hell.
