The wars will continue. No political solution is possible. The people are now inured to war. It is not an issue for most Americans. The media does not report the cause and effect of war in a truthful manner. If the wars are to be fought by the invisible poor and the flag-draped coffins arriving at Dover airbase are not shown\u2014to say nothing of videos and photos of uncounted innocents killed by the US government\u2014then most people simply don\u2019t care. They are not motivated to do much of anything about the situation. In this way, they are analogous to the citizens of Nazi Germany.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>2. Economic predation by the ruling elite, central banks, and the so-called \u201cone percent\u201d (actually more like 0.001 percent) will continue until the entire house of cards collapses. This will be blamed on whoever is president at the time. It may be Trump, or his successor, be he or she Democrat or Republican. It doesn\u2019t really matter which individual gets the blame for the coming catastrophe that will result in billions of people living in poverty or near-poverty. Anyone who knows anything about how the economy really works under the \u201cguidance\u201d of the Federal Reserve and its cartel of international banksters understands that the president has very little influence over economic policy. The task of the president, backed up by a raft of bogus and misleading statistics issued by government agencies, is to tell lies (he may not know they are lies) and blue sky bullshit about jobs and inflation.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>3. Because the corporate media does not tell the truth about the economy, most people are woefully ignorant and unprepared for the eventuality of a \u201cGreater Depression.\u201d This will result in civil violence never before experienced in this country and the government will respond with authoritarian measures.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>4. Increasingly, we are denied to right to speak and organize politically. The state is now in the process of making sure its critics cannot be heard on social media and the internet. Narratives counter to official propaganda are now considered domestic terrorism by the FBI, the state\u2019s political police force. Activists on the \u201cfar-right\u201d are considered racist, xenophobic, misogynist\u2014essentially \u201cfascist,\u201d although it is obvious many on the \u201cfar-left\u201d and even \u201ccenter-left\u201d have zero idea what a real fascist is. The state in league with corporations\u2014\u201cpublic-private partnership\u201d\u2014are fascist in orientation. Mussolini, whom we may regard as the grand-daddy of fascism, defined his authoritarian doctrine as corporatism. For most Americans, fascists goose-step in old newsreels and shove Jews in crematoria ovens. They have no idea the credit card they use to buy their corporate latte every morning essentially renders them slaves to real fascists.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>5. Donald Trump will likely escape the fate of impeachment, primarily because he is not guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors. Trump should be impeached for telling lies to the American people and engaging in war crimes, not for the patently absurd, vile, and vicious fantasies put out since 2016 by butt-sore loser Democrats led by the psychopath Hillary Clinton. It now (late December 2019) appears Trump may actually be reelected. This will result in further political and social polarization and a marked increase in violence. Again, this will provide the state with an excuse to implement draconian measures, including the rendition of political activists within the United States. The state has prepared for this since the late 60s (Rex 84, Garden Plot, Ollie North\u2019s plan to subvert the Constitution during a \u201cnational emergency,\u201d all should serve as examples).<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>6. The political strategy now used by the state\u2014fomenting division along political, sexual, racial, and perceived class lines\u2014will result in violence on an unprecedented scale. The so-called Left has demonstrated over the last few years that it is not adverse to openly advocating and using violence\u2014from shooting Republicans at baseball practice to the brutality and thuggery of Antifa and other \u201canarchists\u201d (they defy the definition)\u2014as weapons to score political points.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>7. As noted above, the strategy by the state and the global elite is to create division and violence that will require a violent \u201csolution.\u201d The Pentagon has prepared for this for at least a decade and police departments around the nation are now paramilitary organizations\u2014largely due to the effort of the federal government and the Pentagon\u2014that daily reveal a proclivity for violence, including the murder of unarmed and non-threatening civilians.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>8. Add to this stew of social and political toxicity the probability of a regional war in the Middle East initiated by Israel and the US (and the scary prospect of a military confrontation with Russia, China, or both), and we have a situation where political repression in America will resemble that of the former East Germany and the Soviet Union. The state adores war\u2014not only for the ability to centralize government and impose sacrifice on the people\u2014but as a sufficient cover to eradicate all political opposition.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>9. I believe we have few if any options. As noted above, the American people, by and large, are sufficiently indoctrinated and unable to organize effective resistance. It is far too easy for the state to divert the masses into meaningless and dead-end political sideshows, most obviously the idiotic circus to impeach Trump with its collection of inanities, magician illusions, lies, breaking of the rule of law, and spreading of venomous (and diversionary) hysteria.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>10. I see little reason to continue posting this blog. I am, in essence, preaching to the choir, all 200 or so who daily visit this blog. Granted, many of my posts are reposted elsewhere, but the effect, educative or otherwise, is at best minimal. I see little reason to continue. I do fear many of us will be prosecuted\u2014or at best have our internet resources curtailed\u2014and this will be, as the endless wars, of only minimal passing concern to a majority of Americans. After all, the corporate media has maligned us as Nazis, white supremacists, and dangerous terroristic conspiracy theorists. It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out where this will lead.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Endnote: I advise the small number of you who have pledged money to this blog through a monthly donation to end payments to my account.
