I grew up in the Midwest, in the '50s and '60s, attending Methodist churches and Sunday Schools.

If Methodist churches can be corrupted this way, ANYTHING can be corrupted.

Your post reminded me of SciFi author and mathematician Vernor Vinge's concept of ubiquitous law enforcement -- which we are homing in on every-more closely.

It's NOT a good thing.

Ubiquitous Law Enforcement

Vernor Vinge, a science fiction author and professor of computer science, has discussed the concept of "ubiquitous law enforcement" in his work and presentations. This idea refers to the potential for technology to enable comprehensive surveillance and enforcement of laws, where every action can be monitored and regulated.

Vinge introduced this concept during a presentation at the Computers, Freedom, and Privacy conference in 1996, where he explored how fine-grained distributed systems could allow for such control.

The notion of ubiquitous law enforcement has been referenced in various contexts, including discussions about the implications of advanced surveillance technologies and the potential for government and commercial entities to exert control over digital and physical spaces. For instance, the development of tools that can enforce laws mechanistically has been highlighted as a significant factor in shaping future societies.

This concept has also influenced other works, such as the novel "Rule 34," which draws on Vinge's ideas about the challenges posed by a society where every law can be enforced through technology.

In addition, Vinge's ideas have been part of broader conversations about the balance between security and privacy, and how technological advancements might affect individual freedoms. The potential for a future where law enforcement is pervasive and technologically driven raises important questions about the nature of freedom, privacy, and the role of government in a digital age.

Thanks for the post, bubble_bursts. I've known that the City of London is a Cabal center of nastiness, but did not know about its origins -- or the 1666 connection with Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill. (Hell, I didn't know about the "One" in the name).

Trump and leaders of some of the Arab nations may have put into motion such a Reformation for Islam during Trump's first administration, and while brokering the peace and other understandings he helped create at that time.

I'm sorry I don't have any sauce for that, or details; it's just something I remember reading about, probably here, and whether it's true or not isn't something I can even guess at. But it wouldn't surprise me; Islam's true nature is ever-harder to keep hidden and doesn't bode well for Muslim nations' relationships with the rest of the world.

The whole damn movie is relevant. The Matrix was perhaps the biggest Red Pill ever created up to that point, and remains one of the best.

Excellent post, Tetartos_Ippeas.

We need more of this direct calling-out of Islam's true nature.

There are hundreds of books about radical Islam on Amazon. How Americans can STILL lack understanding that Islam is as much a military-style scheme to take over the world (including by widespread deceit and violence) as it is a religion, escapes me.

From the Amazon description of Heretic: Why Islam Needs a Reformation Now by Ayaan Hirsi Ali (Author) --

Today, she argues, the world’s 1.6 billion Muslims can be divided into a minority of extremists, a majority of observant but peaceable Muslims and a few dissidents who risk their lives by questioning their own religion. But there is only one Islam and, as Hirsi Ali shows, there is no denying that some of its key teachings—not least the duty to wage holy war—are incompatible with the values of a free society.

For centuries it has seemed as if Islam is immune to change. But Hirsi Ali has come to believe that a Muslim Reformation—a revision of Islamic doctrine aimed at reconciling the religion with modernity—is now at hand, and may even have begun.

Unless and until such reformation has taken place, no Western nation should allow Islam within its borders.

I've been harping on this for years, including here on GA.

https://constitutioncenter.org/the-constitution/full-text

Article IV, Section 4

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

"a Republican Form of Government" means one where the PEOPLE choose their representatives, which REQUIRES that ELECTIONS BE HONEST AND FAIR.

The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes. (First published in the mid-1970s, this Amazon page says 2000 but I have an old copy from 1976)

Jaynes speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium b.c. men had no consciousness but were simply obeying the voices of (what they thought of as) the gods.

Highlighted quote at the Amazon page:

Indeed, language is an organ of perception, not simply a means of communication.

The Introduction (on The Problem of Consciousness) and Chapter One are worth the price of the book themselves, and discuss, among other things, the many things we do daily WITHOUT consciousness -- such as driving a car while daydreaming or playing a piano (assuming one is beyond the "having to think about it" stage).

From the Intro:

O, what a world of unseen visions and heard silences, this insubstantial country of the mind! What ineffable essences, these touchless rememberings and unshowable reveries! And the privacy of it all! A secret theater of speechless monologue and prevenient counsel, an invisible mansion of all moods, musings, and mysteries, an infinite resort of disappointments and discoveries. A whole kingdom where each of us reigns reclusively alone, questioning what we will, commanding what we can. A hidden hermitage where we may study out the troubled book of what we have done and yet may do. An introcosm that is more myself than anything I can find in a mirror. This consciousness that is myself of selves, that is everything, and yet nothing at all -- what is it?

And where did it come from?

And why?

Apparently not, so why don't you enlighten me?

To me: A person or group telling the TRUTH about something ISN'T a psyop -- UNLESS it plans to start telling the occasional LIE to the audience it has cultivated. Pseudo-MAGA suddenly slamming a real MAGA individual for no reason, for instance. Like, say, trying to discredit a perfectly good source of information and people (Like Dr. Makis) who use it.

We've seen plenty of that over the past years, but I haven't seen Slay News do that yet.

Have you?

I don't read everything it puts out by a long shot, but what I have read typically includes sauce and tracks with other sources I trust; they often feature studies I've read about and/or checked out directly before.

Or do you have another reason to assume Slay is a psyop? And what's the purpose of this one?

https://ourworldindata.org/explorers/covid?Metric=Vaccine+doses+and+confirmed+deaths&Interval=7-day+rolling+average&Relative+to+population=true&tab=chart&country=~NZL

There are many charts on this page (you're right, by the way, the link in the Slay News article goes to the front page of the website, but the page with the relevant charts and data is the in this sentence), and the one at the top of this comment is relevant but not the only one that backs the claim.

Interestingly, a bit over 250 COVID jabs were administered PER 100 PEOPLE in New Zealand. It's very hard to believe (even on the basis of just this chart) that most COVID deaths were NOT among people who had been "vaccinated" -- and this is far from the only information I've seen that supports this.

I don't care whether he's real or an anon.

I care whether the information he posts under his name is true and I appreciate the references he posts with his articles.

You're trying to focus me on something trivial. Is the information REAL or not? THAT's the FIRST question.

The SECOND question is: why would a psyop spend time publishing the TRUTH unless -- like Q -- he was working for the Good.

The only reason I can think of is to gain the trust of an audience, only to betray it later.

Haven't seen "Frank Bergman" do that yet.

Have you?

That's fine -- the NAME alone of Slay News is enough to put some people off, but the fact that Slay covers REAL NEWS and includes LINKS to reference material, including actual studies, is the point: Slay is an example of someone putting together a site for REAL NEWS, and having someone here (VaccinesCauseSIDS, who generally posts solid material) slander them without sauce -- because there ISN'T any so far as I know -- really pisses me off. Especially since it's in part a slander of Makis, who reposts Slay regularly.

Recent example:

https://makismd.substack.com/p/news-dutch-scientists-expose-fake

which is a repost of https://slaynews.com/news/dutch-scientists-expose-fake-data-death-rates-among-covid-vaxxed/

which includes this link:

Sure, Bedminster. A psyop that tells the truth about the COVID "vaccines" and includes links and references. How awful!

Who would be paying for such a thing?

I understand your viewpoint, Olddogg, and there's an argument for it, although the argument includes whether the State has the right to regulate (in this case) longlines in the ocean.

In August 2020, the pair of divers came across the longline connected to a buoy about three miles off Jupiter Inlet and, believing it to be illegal, cut it, freeing the apex predators and grouper in the process, according to court documents.

The men reported their actions to state wildlife officials and brought the line back to shore – but were later hit with federal charges and ultimately found guilty by a jury two years later.

“In our mind, the entire time, we thought we were uncovering a crime rather than committing a crime,” Mansell said.

Now, I'd actually prefer that a market (i.e., civil society) organization, like the original Underwriter's Labs or the National Fire Safety Association do such things, but either way, such things must be done if we don't want the tragedy of the commons to become a normal state of affairs.

The pardonees (is that a word?) THOUGHT they were releasing animals that had been illegally and cruelly snagged on a longline (and it IS cruel, whether it's legal or not). Maybe they should have been punished, but not NEARLY as harshly as they were. So I'm glad Trump pardoned them; the punishment here did NOT fit the crime in my view.

So: just my opinion.

Great point.

Sane, decent people of goodwill -- regardless of their religion or lack thereof -- need to participate in politics to some extent and in whatever fashion they feel is right. Ignoring politics makes for a simpler and easier life, but leads to tyranny.

Coercive governance is an unfair system -- forcing actions (including prohibiting actions that don't violate natural law) is Evil, and even America as envisioned by the Founders did that to some degree, despite our being a Republic with (on paper) limited government power -- and I'm not just talking about outright slavery.

I'd love a truly civil society, where everything from law enforcement and corporate regulation to national defense was market-based, because the best alternative is what we already have: a small, restrained government that becomes a bloated tyranny and globe-spanning, war-mongering Empire. NOT what the Founders wanted, but as Franklin hinted, exactly what was most likely to happen. ("A Republic, if you can keep it").

As long as we allow the Ring of Power to remain in this world, we need to be vigilant against it's constant corrupting influence. That means we must actively oppose Evil, and particularly Evil becoming exponentially more powerful by seizing government's coercive power. Nearly every problem in modern-day America (and around the world) stems from THAT.

Oddly, Bergman articles at "Slay News" (and articles by other authors) contain verifiable links, while your post provides none, and no sauce whatsoever.

Dr. Makis often reposts Slaynews articles, and I often post about them here.

The thing is, I don't just blindly do that. I follow the links in the article AS I READ IT before posting about it.

Below are just three random examples of Makis posting Slay News articles; all of them slam the psyop of the COVID "vaccine" bioweapons. All have links you can follow -- and I have.

If Slay News is a psyop, they've gone to incredible effort, creating websites for scientific journals among other things.

My guess is that Slay News isn't a psyop. The psyop is you.

Or perhaps you encountered a psyop page yourself and believed what it said.

2937 is the perfect drop for this discussion, Joys1Daughter.

I especially like "This is a crossroads in the history of our civilization . . ." comment from POTUS. Gives me chills every time I read it, because the statement is absolutely true: we win this, or we lose everything. And it has to be done right. I believe that Trump and Co. are doing it the right way -- and just today we saw more evidence that America's rogue/treasonous judiciary problem is being taken care of.
