At the often stomach-churning BlacklistedNews.com, some rays of hope

I've always said that all we had to do to win it fast is start doing everything to THEM that they do to US -- within the law. Many cases of it occur; the most delectable may very well be when freedom-seekers take the high-tech surveillance wizardry the Establishment exploits to the fullest against us, and turn it on our oppressors:

Polish protesters send up ‘Robokopter’ drone to spy on police

The video below showing a civilian operated drone chopper filming riots in Warsaw, Poland last Friday is a great example of the democratization of what was until very recently, military-grade tech. This is a straight up ISR drone that’s flying high above the streets of a major city taking camera footage that was once the exclusive domain of high-priced news choppers and government helos.

That article would also be the high point in the tedious course of this Occupy movement thing so far, which has been long on vague sentiment but short on focus. Where's the beef?........ Speaking of high tech, isn't it good to know that a whole continent somewhere is turning against Mr. Chertoff's cancer generators?

Europe bans 'naked' airport scanners over cancer fears

Controversial ‘naked’ body scanners, already in use at Manchester Airport, could be withdrawn after EU chiefs warned that they could pose a health risk due to the radiation they emit.

This item won't do anything for your respect for Germany, but what a nice spike on the chart of Britain's brain waves:

Germany's secret plans to derail a British referendum on the EU

Germany has drawn up secret plans to prevent a British referendum on the overhaul of the European Union amid concerns it could derail the eurozone rescue package, leaked documents obtained by The Daily Telegraph disclose.

The Blacklisted News homepage is 19 print pages long, but the above are about the only signs of hope showing in it at present. Translation: the situation is very, very bad! Do your friends and family a favor, won't you? Figure out to some way to calmly get it across to them that there's a cannon pointed at their head and the ground is being yanked right out from under their feet.

They've got to know it.

Communism, again

Our title today has many uses. Just a few:

* You woke up again this morning, and likely again found yourself in a communist country.

* Outright, official communism dominated the earth for most of a century, and after its supposed fall with the destruction of the Berlin Wall, some people were surprised to find that the replacement leaders in many of those countries were..... communist!

* During that whole awful period -- from the publication of the communist manifesto to the fall of the Wall -- anyone scanning the world political scene from the east, where communism was strongest, to the far west (the USA) where people were supposedly freest, an honest assessment would have held that what one saw here as well was in fact..... communism!

* The word has been quietly dropped from the political vocabulary. But today in the real world, it is again being written up for the fraud it truly is! Hey, this Takimag writer is saying the same stuff I do including communism's real origins and missing modern context, but much funnier. Enjoy:

Trending online news topics often cough up amusingly odd juxtapositions, such as when “Auschwitz” was #2 behind “LeAnn Rimes” and right ahead of “Holiday Bread Recipes” on Yahoo!’s home page. Although I didn’t get a screen capture, I swear to whatever God will listen to me that a few days ago, Kristallnacht was trending on Yahoo! amid a pack of similarly weighty topics such as Justin Bieber and Snooki.............

What the hell was Kristallnacht doing in the news?

Pithy Carolina Journal headlines

The editor of grade B+ NC print paper's editor gives his take on Occupation:

http://www.carolinajournal.com/jhdailyjournal/index.html
To recognize the Occupy movement for what it really is, we didn’t need to wait to watch the Carnival of Souls now playing across the country – the filth, the intimidation, the violence, the weapons, the drug overdoses, the killings, and the Penn State-like conspiracy of silence about sexual assaults. Based on the movement’s illiberal ideological assumptions and the foolishness of camping out in pubic parks as a strategy for political change, we knew that the protests would become increasingly desperate and shrill, revealing the true colors of their instigators.

Leftists push to annex North Carolina to New York City (was this article written up there?):

http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2011/11/16/2778997/foes-gird-to-fight-same-sex-marriage.html

Jeremy Kennedy, the campaign manager for the anti-amendment coalition, which filed paperwork Nov. 7 with the state, said the organization is modeling its effort, in part, on President Barack Obama's successful grassroots operation in 2008 by developing a broad network of local advocates and volunteers in various communities. "It's a big operation, a big undertaking," said Kennedy, who led an unsuccessful effort in Maine to get marriage equality for same-sex couples.

In the same mailer (in case you missed it in our vibrant PN egroups), this headline:

Human trafficking ‘is real, it’s in North Carolina’

I heard a radio discussion on the subject today while driving through NC. They referred to "human trafficking" over and over, but you know what? That's only because they know this curse on us all is the result of leftwing agitation, propaganda and legislation -- and that ergo new, more elaborate buzz has to be sprayed to hide the shocking reality of it.

You see, there's only one word that covers the vice in question, and that word is "SLAVING". Slaving has returned to the supposed land of the free as a direct result of the leftwing takeover or media, politics, education and everything else. Leftists' religion bears the silly title of "diversity and tolerance", by which they're actually calling for promiscuity and passivity. Promiscuity meaning chaos as a matter of policy and law in order to destroy the social setup -- and passivity on the part of anybody who doesn't like it!

Please remember that. Don't let anybody around you say "human trafficking" or any other totally fraudulent thing cooked up in commie think tanks to keep the sheeple clueless and apathetic. You don't call Obama the president anymore -- why make the torture of women and children sound like some kind of business deal with the word "trafficking"?

Other cases or word fraud abound: let's bring back the totally lost terms "abortionist" and "VD". New generations need to feel the horror and demoralization we all did on learning that such things existed! If leftists really want "change" I don't think it's too much to ask that things be called by their truthful names regardless of what the copy editors at Time or Newsweek might think of it.

To end on a more upbeat note ("karmic overtures"!?!?):

Mass mailer claims that 100 rich moonbeams want to pay more taxes

Is this an early April Fool joke? A trite little shill trick?

Can rich people really be that dumb?

Wait a minute -- this is from the capitol of Taxachusetts. It likely is real.

Share This: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – November 15, 2011 Contact: Maz Ali, 617-423-2148 x101, mali@responsiblewealth.org Wealthy Taxpayers Say, 'Tax Us More,' in Open Letter to Super-Committee Boston, MA – United for a Fair Economy (UFE) has published an open letter to Congress’ Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction, or the “Super-Committee.” The letter was signed by more than 100 members and supporters of UFE’s Responsible Wealth project who are business owners, investors and wealthy individuals in the top 5 percent of the U.S. economy. The letter calls for the majority of deficit reduction to be achieved with higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations. The twelve member Super-Committee has been tasked with negotiating a plan by November 23 that will reduce the federal deficit by $1.2 trillion, in addition to the nearly $1 trillion in cuts made in August. All of the signers have incomes of more than $200,000 and are willing to pay income tax at a 39.6 percent rate, as outlined in President Obama's proposal to allow the expiration of Bush-era tax cuts for upper-income households. Among the signers are 15 people with incomes in excess of $1 million who support rates of at least 45 percent on themselves. The signers hail from 23 states, including 6 of the 11 states represented by members of the Super-Committee. Recent polls show that the majority of Americans, including wealthy people, strongly support higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations. The letter includes two additional key principles: At least half of all spending cuts should be made by reducing unnecessary military expenditures. None of the spending cuts should adversely impact beneficiaries of key social programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, education and other programs relied upon by low- and middle-income families. If the Super-Committee fails to negotiate a deal by November 23, $1.2 trillion in automatic cuts – half from defense, half from domestic programs (Social Security and Medicare exempted) – will take effect in January 2013. United for a Fair Economy and the signers of this letter believe that no deal is better than a bad deal. Together, they urge Super-Committee members to reject any proposal that does not meet the above principles. Read the letter at www.faireconomy.org/super-committee The following individuals are available for comment regarding this letter: Arul Menezes, Research Manager and Software Architect, Microsoft Research, WA: “As an upper-income taxpayer whose wealth was entirely earned, rather than inherited, I feel my success was in great part due to the egalitarian and meritocratic society I encountered when I came to the U.S. That society has been all but destroyed by the current tax code. Today, much of my income is from capital gains and dividends. I find it grotesque that these should be taxed lower than income from work.” Phillippe Villers, President of Grainpro Inc., Concord, MA: “I am willing to pay more taxes to save the American economy. As an investor, I make decisions based on the opportunity offered, not the tax rates for wealthy Americans. Cutting Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security will not help to revive our struggling economy. I strongly oppose any compromise in the Super-Committee that does not include new revenues from those who can afford them, like myself, for half or more of this deficit reduction plan.” Jim Wellehan, President of Lamey-Wellehan Shoes, Auburn, ME: “I find it terribly frustrating that other large national and international companies pay little to no taxes. To continue with an unfair tax code is to encourage cheating. We should tax incomes of all types at the same rates, be they from capital gains, rent, dividends, interest or work.” Lee Farris, Federal Tax Policy Coordinator, United for a Fair Economy: “Much of the federal deficit is due to the 2001 Bush tax cuts – which largely went to the wealthy – and to two expensive and unpaid-for wars. The automatic cuts, while still very harsh and unfair to low- and middle-income families, would be better than a deal in the Super-Committee that does not meet the principles outlined in our letter." United for a Fair Economy (www.faireconomy.org) is a national organization working to close the growing income and wealth divides in the U.S. Responsible Wealth, a project of United for a Fair Economy, is a network of 700 business leaders, high-wealth and upper-income advocates of progressive tax policies and corporate accountability. ### 29 Winter Sreet, 2nd Floor | Boston, MA 02108 US

The great Webster Tarpley gives the final lowdown on the Occupy movement

We've been through months of hazily- and murkily-defined occupations in downtowns. We've been through umpteen theories, pro and con, as to what their main point is. I've tried to give them the benefit of the doubt on some counts. But ultimately, it's mush.... of a type, says Webster Tarpley, that is 100% planned and designed for a purpose: to shore up socialism and the age of Change.

As I write, his remarks are posted as a video front and center on this strange, intriguing homepage:

http://www.voxfux.com/

I clicked the first video whose link shows afterward and it's an equally trenchant interview between Tarpley and Alex Jones. The site came my way via this CRUCIALLY IMPORTANT summary of MASSIVE CORRUPTION AND DEGENERACY in the HIGHEST ECHELONS OF POWER as reported by MAJOR MEDIA:

http://www.voxfux.com/features/bush_child_sex_coverup/franklin.htm

Don't ask me what the "fux" part of the URL stands for -- maybe they're fans of the baroque composer and music theorist Johann Joseph Fux?....

Passion or performance? Fedgov troll notices his employer's galloping Orwellianism

Supreme Court "justice" calls the Obama administration on bringing Orwell's "1984" to pass! What next -- will cows fly over the moon?

Justice Breyer warns of Orwellian government
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/192445-justice-breyer-warns-of-orwellian-government

Stephen Breyer was put on the Supreme Court for one reason only -- to stuff it yet fuller of Klingons and reinforce their dominance over every aspect of ameriKan life. Believe his epiphany if you want, but I don't for a minute.

While we're on the subject, here's one of those sites everybody without exception should get hold to at some point in time -- it may slap our worldview in the face sometime, but it is brilliant overall!

http://studentsfororwell.org/

You know, the idea of calling judges "justices" has always struck me as, well, a crime. You can't walk around in that role every day without starting to imagine you are indeed not only a judge but an embodiment of just-ness! You'd go crazy with smugness as you realized that you and many around you were drunk with power and throwing it around "because we can".

Surely calling mere occupants of judicial benches "justice" is on the same plane with calling Obama "Mr. President". They don't refer to preachers as "religions" or "faiths", though they come very close by calling the more l'arned ones "divines", another of my pet peeves. Where do they get this? My cat, God rest his soul, was literally more divine than half of them!

When a judge is bad enough to be appointed to the Noxious Nine, one would think more people would see the disconnect* of it all and demand a redo of the whole shebang, but no -- it only magnifies the prestige of the the awe in which they're held!

.......Out of the mouths of babes, or rather the pens of ostensibly frivolous comic artists, MUCH truth doth proceed!

*apologies to all who oppose commandeering verbs for noun use.

IRS tyranny forces amerikans to bid USA a miserable "good riddance" in Canada.... so they think

Socialism kills. "Liberalism" poisons everything. Here's some more powerful proof.

Americans in Canada driven to divorce from their country
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/americans-in-canada-driven-to-divorce-from-their-country/article2229969/

It's easy to put crushing taxes under the "liberal" category, because it's "liberals" -- properly termed leftists -- that push for higher taxes, more "programs", powerful central governments and the like. I have a boyhood friend who's a flaming liberal. After 40 years of no politics, we finally had the big discussion a few years ago by email. He's a brilliant scientific mind and fun person but oh, his politics and economics -- he blithely, openly called for higher taxes, more "programs", and an ever more powerful ameriKan fedgov. But he denied being a socialist!

The above news story is tragicomic. (Much of life is, to today's paleo-conservative.) If ameriKans would be Americans again, and for instance abolish the hateful, demonic presence of the income tax and IRS here.... if they would quit voting ANYONE into office who had EVER voted for a tax increase, a giveaway program, a do-gooder foreign war, we could have our country back and nobody would feel they have to get out.

The tears and woe people are suffering on the way to becoming full Canadians are real, and it's very moving. But surely they know deep down there will be no hope for them there unless they are willing to take the bull by the horns socio-politically? Canada is going "new world order" big time, and their assets are really no safer there than here. Hope they don't ever try to express themselves on The Big Subject (you know, the one the boss doesn't even wnt me mentioning here) -- they may find their free speech exercise brings a fine or jail term.

How many of these folk are even aware of the real nature of citizenship? How many realize that the IRS which still ruins their day is not only a nuisance but un-Constitutional, i.e. unnecessary and evil?

The "comic" part is -- forgive me -- how they make sure to get right with the IRS before divorcing the USA, some paying all "missing" back taxes and a pile of fees and fines too. We could have helped them avoid all that and get a whole nother head on their shoulders, but they were likely preoccupied with more vivid and colorful things to attend to than taking a good look at the Constitution.

Another friend of mine from olden daze is a gal I knew in music school. When we ran into each other a decade out, I was a PN tax patriot, she a full System slave. She happened to mention having had a boyfriend who determined that she was way behind in what she owed the IRS and convinced her to send them a pre-emptive $5,000 giftie. A land of willing slaves, for whom government is in effect the biggest thing they answer to, is doomed.

What else should claim people's higher loyalty and fear, you ask? How about God -- or at least the inner voice that screams at every one of us that having your paycheck gouged by 20% or 40% each weak is dead wrong?

ameriKa is definitely going tohell in any case, and regardless of which of the "two" major parties is in charge at a given time or who gets elected president, everything gets worse. Great case in point on the radio just now via the Phyllis Schlafly report!
