    Meirsheimer says himself in this diatribe that he is at home with "his people" in China. He also says that he is a man in the wrong century which I think sums up his entire lecture pretty well. He seems to me to be living in the past and judging the times we are in by those standards.

    Back to Mexico, back before the Conquistadores, there was that human sacrifice, what could be more evil? It was entrenched into the culture and we saw it in Mel Gibson's movie, "Apocalypto":

    Human trafficking, drug smuggling, I think there is a demonic force out there and sure, it's everywhere but maybe a bit easy to see in Mexico:

    Here's a human trafficker via Faithwire, CBN: ‘Arrested For Human Smuggling?’: Shocking Video Leaves Some Saying Woman Is ‘Demon Possessed’ – Faithwire

    Kind of spooky to watch, demonic possession is with a very small minority I would guess, but I do think it exists and I saw it at this church retreat once, less than a handful really seemed possessed with Sister Fatima Vivas of Nicaragua evangelizing and laying hands on people.

    Indeed. But I think anyone taking his words at face value would have been dismissed as unsophisticated. Did you notice how readily he labelled people as fascists? He also conveniently omitted some details about the Maidan incident that might have changed the message he wanted to convey. Watching him reminded me of the saying "You rear a businessman and buy brains". Looking at academia these days, it's hard to discount the likelihood that many "brains" have been bought.
    It seems to me that power in the world is held by a very small number of people who pull most strings and control the public narrative. I was reminded of that when I heard that Mark Carney is something of a mouthpiece for Trudeau. Didn't the same Mark Carney head the Bank of England in the lead up to the Brexit referendum when the globalist line was that Brexit would see instant economic collapse in Britain? Carney probably claimed to be neutral but I don't think there was any doubt about his being very much a Remainer.

    As often as not revolutionaries end up being little different and often worse than the rulers they rebelled against. How can anyone know whether any of post-revolution Russia's leaders were more popular than the Czar? The beheaded king of France was probably more popular than Macron or any any of his opponents are now. Is there really all that much difference between "you will own nothing and be happy" and "let them eat cake". I don't think so other than that there is no reliable record of Marie Antoinette ever having made that statement about the peasants.

    I will be very surprised if the US and Russia go to war over Ukraine. Lots of posturing, internal conflict in Ukraine, plenty of military hardware sold, but no full scale war. Climate change offers better opportunities for controlling us pawns on the global chessboard.

    That video is horrible and sad. I imagine that someone who would do this to another person must have either very grave psychological issues or could very well be suffering from oppression.
    One would have to hate others (and therefor themselves) very deeply to do this sort of thing and not be very self destructive.

    Investigative reporter Joshua Philipp tells Alex Newman: The whole world is living under some form of Marxism

    Thursday, February 10, 2022 by: Kevin Hughes
    https://www.naturalnews.com/2022-02-10-whole-world-living-under-form-of-marxism.html#
    (Natural News) The Epoch Times senior investigative reporter Joshua Philipp told “The Sentinel Report” host Alex Newman that the whole world is living under some form of Marxism.

    “The whole world is under some type of Marxist influence, whether it’s through China and other countries, whether it’s through the government where they actually do control the government or whether it’s through the culture as we have in the United States and other parts of the world. We’re all living under some form of Marxism,” said the award-winning investigative reporter. (Related: Chinese communist conference plots how to ‘promote’ the ‘powerful weapon’ of Marxism.)

    Philipp added that Marxism is often misunderstood as an economic system and that it was recognized previously by Austrian economist-social philosopher Ludwig von Mises and many others as being a metaphysical theory.

    Marxism is a religion and a belief

    “It was about metaphysics and ontology. In other words, it’s a religion – it’s a belief. The debate on Marxism ended prior to communism, because the communists could not win debates on economics and sociology. And the reason we debate communism on economics now and why a lot of people take it as an economic system is because that’s where the debate ended,” Philipp explained.

    Philipp added that Marxism believes in dialectical materialism, which means the struggle of opposites.

    “It means that you identify the tactic of it. The physical tactic of it is to identify any system, invert that system, flip it upside down and then create a social movement around the inversion. And then you use that to agitate the existing values, culture, religion or whatever of that society until you wear it down and eventually dissolve it,” said Philipp, who has done research and investigations on the Chinese Communist Party, subversion and other related topics.

    “And they believe that through this destruction of morality, religion, belief, culture, family structure, you can basically boil man down or break men down or break society down to those granular level and from that rebuild the new communist utopia, rebuild the communist man. That’s what communism is.”

    He also pointed out that Marxism has its religious roots from Gnosticism and Hermeticism, as well as different types of satanic beliefs that can also be read in Marx’s old writings. Philipp added that Marxism was always a religion and Marx built his system on Hegelianism, which was developed by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, one of the well-known spiritual political leaders of his time.

    Philipp also said that Marx built his version of Hegel’s dialectical materialism.

    Hegel’s idea of “conflict leads forward”

    Philipp also expounded on Hegel’s idea of “conflict leads forward,” or the belief in social evolution. He said that Marxists believe that a society develops around stages, and their idea is to create a “struggle” like class or race struggle.

    The veteran reporter added that a Marxist takes different groups of people and drives them against each other because conflict leads forward, which Philipp said is like the critical race theory or the struggle of opposites, as Marx talked about.

    Philipp took note of the Marxist belief that the destiny of man is to perfect the creations of God, to perfect society and the socio-economic system and remake it in man’s image and to divorce men from God. He also believes that Karl Marx was not interested in the welfare of individuals.

    Marx, according to Philipp, believes that by destroying the creations of God he becomes godlike himself.

    Philipp also warned the viewers that they need to become aware of what the Marxists or communists are really aiming for.

    “They’re not trying to create racial harmony. They’re not trying to create social harmony. They’re not trying to create tolerance and these types of things. They’re trying to create hatred. They’re trying to create jealousy and they’re trying to create intolerance. They want the struggle,” he said.

    I almost forgot to post about this big story, the truth is slowly coming out. Hillary Clinton does need to be locked up, what is outlined in this arctile is a crime...
    (Maria Bartiromo mentioned it this morning and Steve Hilton is talking about it now on Fox News, if you are interested.)

    Clinton campaign paid to 'infiltrate' Trump Tower, White House servers to link Trump to Russia: Durham

    'Tech Executive-1 and his associates exploited this arrangement by mining the EOP's DNS traffic and other data for the purpose of gathering derogatory information about Donald Trump.' 2/12/2022

    God will judge no matter what man does. Truly I pray mercy on her soul for it is a terrible thing to fall into the Hands of the Living God as scripture says. May we all receive mercy on that dread day.

    In less than six hours, the city of Petropolis, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, recorded more rain than was expected for the entire month of February. There are dozens of deaths.

    Anyone think she's going to pay (or Obama, or Biden, or any of them save a couple low level operatives they throw out there)? Nope...

    "Once again, we see the conservative pundit class go bananas over the new motion filings from the Durham investigation in the last few days. Suddenly, everybody at Fox News is “expecting more indictments” at any moment! (How did that turn out for Sean Hannity and Dan Bongino the last time?) Suddenly, everybody is supposed to be excited that Durham’s crack team finally figured out spying activities against Donald Trump that occurred in July 2016.

    This is a mistake.

    The first question you should be asking yourself is why it took the Justice Department almost 6 years to figure out those spying activities.

    Let me use the proper analogy here. It’s like going back to your old ex-boyfriend who never treated you well because he called you once over the holidays. You know that it’s going to end badly before you even call him back — but you’re lonely and you can’t help yourself. It’s a troubled and abusive relationship — the one between FBI Special Counsel John Durham and American voters who want justice for the Russia Hoax. I don’t want to see you get your feelings hurt.

    Let me explain why you’re probably being played again..."

    I still hold out some hope Tom, that Durham and his current and coming indictments will indeed do something. I pray for justice and for some hope for the US.

    We have to keep Hope, but just stay steady and realize our system is already lost. Just watch what they're doing in Canada now, making up the rules as they go along and tonight they'll get brutal with those truckers after allowing BLM and Antifa to run amok for months unimpeded. The rule of law is long gone, there's a 2 tiered system now and they just flaunt it at us. It's part of their plan to take us down and rebuild our system, even conservatives are ready to throw everything out now as we've lost hope in our justice system.

    The true Hope we must keep is in God. He has a plan, Trust :)

    Absolutley and what they want more than anything is a fight to break out so then military can intervene. It is why they have been pushing and pushing 2 sides forever: black vs white, conservatives vs liberals, vax vs unvaxed, etc. If these two sides would engage in violence, look out. Now you know why BLM and antifa were allowed to do so much damage, they wanted a response from the other side, that thankfully did not happen or we would be in much worse shape right now than we are.
