Okay, this one is fun! Serious 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz' by L. Frank Baum references.

In the image we see the tin man standing on the yellow brick road holding a sign. The sign says:

MONEY CREATION IS A SCAM ONLY A WIZARD COULD LOVE

At the very bottom of where the tin man is standing it says 'THOMAS X' with a coin to the right. The coin is too small for me to see, but maybe one of you can get a better look at it.

In the background is the Emerald City (aka the City of Emeralds), which is the Land of Oz's capital city.

If you feel like doing even a little surface digging, you can find a ton of great information regarding the multi-layered themes & symbolism of the Wizard of Oz story. Here's just a small sampling to get everyone started.

From: https://www.thevintagenews.com/2019/04/12/wizard-of-oz-symbolism/

According to Ranker, it doesn’t take much analysis to see that the book has a subtext relating directly to the politics of the 1890s; specifically it relates to the rise of Populism that was going on at the time, and to the debate over whether to hold on to the gold standard for currency or start using silver as well.

Did you know L. Frank Baum was a political reporter for awhile? He also lived in South Dakota and was present to see the rise of the Populist movement. I wonder how much that drove his perspective.

The Populist movement during the late 1800s focused on agricultural, labor, and taxation/currency issues. Specific to their attitudes on currency, from https://www.britannica.com/money/topic/Populist-Movement:

They [Populists] demanded an increase in the circulating currency (to be achieved by the unlimited coinage of silver), a graduated income tax, government ownership of the railroads, a tariff for revenue only, the direct election of U.S. senators, and other measures designed to strengthen political democracy and give farmers economic parity with business and industry.

There is some great symbolism in Baum's story. Here are some examples listed in the Vintage News article.

Dorothy:

Dorothy, the main character in the novel, is said to represent the average American. Her character represented the best of what was valued as the American character; she was kind, showed spunk, was level-headed, straightforward, and was willing to face the unknown to find answers to the issues she was faced with.

The Scarecrow:

The Scarecrow represents those farmers [note - the farmers who were under significant financial duress due to weather, pests, etc.]. The Scarecrow thinks he doesn’t have a brain, which parallels the view that Easterners in the country had of the farmers of the Midwest region, as being generally irrational, uneducated, and ignorant. The character shows a good deal of common sense as they make the journey to Oz, and a lot of resilience, proving that he is far less stupid than many people might think.

The Tin Man:

The Tin Man was said to represent a dehumanized and mistreated factory worker, who, through no fault of his own, has had his self-worth chipped away by outside forces. He represents factory workers who were suffering in the economy of the time and was even covered in rust when Dorothy and the Scarecrow first encounter him, representing the high levels of unemployment that were prevalent in the 1890s.

The Cowardly Lion:

The Cowardly Lion is, according to Littlefield, a representation of William Jennings Bryan, who was a hero of the Populist movement at the time. Bryan was even referred to as a lion in the press. He was a huge supporter of the “Free Silver Movement” and moving away from a gold standard.

The Wicked Witches:

The Wicked Witches are interpreted as a representation of the major financial-political interests that held sway over American politics. When Dorothy’s house falls on the Wicked Witch of the East, it’s a reference to smashing Wall Street’s power. Her sister, the Witch of the West, symbolizes the financial elite who lived in the western region of the country such as railroad magnates, bankers, etc.

The Cyclone:

The cyclone, according to a discussion of the story on the Wicked website, may represent the Free Silver Movement or perhaps just political upheaval in general.

Farmers of the Midwest wanted the dollar to have value equal to fixed ratios of both gold and silver, instead of just gold. The financial establishment was against this proposal, which caused a tremendous amount of debate among the politicians of the day.

Dorothy's Slippers:

Dorothy’s slippers were made of silver in Baum’s story, not of ruby. The change was made for the film in order to take advantage of the power of Technicolor. The silver slippers were, says Littlefield, yet another reference to the farmers’ desire to have money be tied to both silver and gold.

The Emerald City:

The Emerald City and the Royal Palace of Oz are placeholders for Washington, D.C. and the White House — the seats of political power and possibly also a reference to the greenback dollar.

The Wizard:

The Wizard, unsurprisingly, represents the President of the United States. In the story, the wizard is a charlatan who has convinced those around him that he wields great power, but who doesn’t really have much power at all. That point is highlighted when he asks Dorothy to go kill the Wicked Witch of the West for him.

Interesting side note - if you do a search of Q's drops for 'wizard', you will most often see that word used in conjuction with warlock [Wizards & Warlocks]. https://qposts.online/?q=wizard&s=keyword

Here's a Q post search for 'gold'. The most significant statement in this context seems to come from drop #2619 [Gold shall destroy FED.] https://qposts.online/?q=gold&s=keyword

Interestingly, there are no Q posts that mention the word 'silver'. Hmm. https://qposts.online/?q=silver&s=keyword

Okay, this is just a small dig. I know there's more to be found, but at least this is a start. :-)

I missed this one, but here's a post from u/94f450d: https://greatawakening.win/p/17rSxOicI5/us-debt-clock-tonight/c/

Social credit scores and digital currency, anyone? I'm sure the deep state would never abuse such a system.

HERE IS AN ADDITIONAL SECRET WINDOW I MISSED:

This was posted by u/JohhnyMagnum357. Very interesting graph pointing out the dollar to silver ratio: https://greatawakening.win/p/17rSeUzZXn/new-usdebtclock-message-i-like-t/c/

General questions/observations (in no particular order):

Who owns & runs USDebtClock.org?

How are they gathering the data shown?

Is the data accurate?

What can we learn from the data?

What data should we be tracking most closely?

Note the intimate intertwining of financial data and Biblical references in the images.

Great digging posted by u/Kingslea re US Debt Clock ownership and data gathering. Hopefully someone can verify/add to this information.

The National Debt Clock is owned and maintained by the Durst Organization, which was founded by Seymour Durst, a New York real estate magnate who adjusted the tally via modem until his death in May 1995. After his death, his son Douglas became president of the Durst Organization, which owns and maintains the clock. Artkraft Strauss has been keeping the figures current since then.

Post #2: https://greatawakening.win/p/17rSo1OOod/x/c/4Tz0NMXqWHf

This is interesting: During World War II, Artkraft supplied custom metal work to the United States military, including hand-made airplane wings and containers for installation in aircraft and tanks. When blackouts and energy shortages limited their ability to illuminate their signs through electricity and neon, the company developed alternative methods, including the use of rechargeable battery packs and dangling mirrors that picked up ambient light.
