The OffG View: Fake binaries, fake crises, fake heroes
In two years of lies, the pandemic has revealed at least one undeniable truth – we really are living in a “new normal”.
They kept telling us “Covid” would usher one in, and for once they weren’t lying.
The world is different, and we need to live in it as it is, rather than pretending the old rules still apply. The entire geopolitical paradigm has shifted, and we need to shift along with it.
One of our editors recently wrote this on our Telegram channel, and it really is the best summation both of the current situation, and OffG’s editorial position.
There is a titanic struggle going on right now globally between the forces of darkness/enslavement and the human desire for truth and freedom.
It’s not about Biden v Trump
It’s not about Labour v Tories
It’s not about Russia v Ukraine
It’s not about East v West
It’s not about men v women
It’s not about LBGT v straight
All those things are either pure theater, invented controversies, or internal struggles between rival gangs of exploiters.
The real struggle is the one the “pandemic” lie inadvertently exposed to us all in stark clarity, and which we are all now being driven to forget as quickly as possible by all the above distractions.
It’s between us as individual humans and the techno-fascism that is being rolled out globally.
It’s between truth and the matrix of lies we are being invited to live in, populated with fake binaries, fake crises, fake solutions and fake heroes.
The choice is ours. Wake up or get in line for the New Normal global prison.

You’ re right !!!
All my posts re David Icke etc have disappeared again, WHY???
Ignore please, my bad, apologies.
Is Putin fighting to stop the clot-shots? (Edward Slavsquat)
Labour vs Tories….
Is Project Starmer in trouble? I’ve seen several articles suggesting he might be. It’s probably just an attempt to make his dullness slightly interesting – but I wonder if there’s some frustration at his uselessness and his inability to sell certain agendas and/or march others forward more quickly? I’m also wondering if TPTB have accepted, after Biden/Harris, that there are some limits on who they can ram down the public’s throats?
The name being mentioned as a replacement is Wes Streeting. He ticks some boxes: 1) Background of apparent poverty 2) Recovery from cancer story to restore faith in allopathic medicine 3) The Israeli lobby love him 4) He’d march forward the LGBT agenda.
The ghastly Andrew Rawnsley throws a mjaor hissy-fit about the Labour leadership today. If Starmer fails, it’s because he’s too good for us! We are not worthy!! 9Even Rawnsley calls Starmer’s leadership “mixed” which is a bit like the Pope saying the Bible’s mixed – or past Popes anyway, back in the day when “is the Pope Catholic?” was a rhetorical question).
The greatest binary: Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard! Imagine caring about this….
TPTB realised some time ago that celebrity trials are a useful tool of social engineering. They can get things into the MSM that they’d otherwise refuse to cover as well as dramatising one of their key agendas (obviously #metoo here).
The world is different, and we need to live in it as it is, rather than pretending the old rules still apply. The entire geopolitical paradigm has shifted, and we need to shift along with it.
The old rules?
Freedom to be responsible?
Honor?
Courage?
Integrity?
The celebration of God and all His blessings as we keep His Word?
Those old rules?
Sorry, They still apply and will apply always.
And then you say “the real struggle is between truth and the matrix of lies we are being invited to live in, populated with fake binaries, fake crises, fake solutions and fake heroes”
There is a grave contradiction here. Are we to uphold the truth or make a truce and accept the invitation to live within the matrix?. Are the ‘old rules’ no longer ‘applicable’ or are they the eternal personal and civic expressions of the truth to which you refer? Your ‘editorial position’ is untenable.
True thar
“The real struggle is between truth and the matrix of lies” Sorry, but I don’t see any contradiction here. The writer is clearly stating that we have to choose between them.
Right on. Like Klaus pronounced on behalf of those who presume to make history, going back to the old abnormal is fiction (or feection). And to insure that, psychological warfare for the new abnormal is all about fictional problems and controversies so monsters like him can misdirect us into the latest final solution. Totalitarianism feeds on fakery. To make Orwell fictional again requires getting real with resistance to the totality of agenda like that of the Great Reset, mounting the enduring and organized resistance, in our real lives beyond the digital (c)age, to fight the war being waged against us on all its fronts.
They the parasites are pointing out what they want not understanding the human spirit of what we want and can do to them.
“The world is different, and we need to live in it as it is, rather than pretending the old rules still apply.”
No, No, No.
There’s a third option:
Rather than pretending the old rules still apply, we kick out BOTH the old rules AND the ‘new normal’ insanity.
Simples.
We start from scratch, and we start as free individuals, at least until the New Insanity makes that literally impossible.
The proposed definition of “waking up” in this articlette really looks exactly the same as the blind acceptance and denial to which the current ‘authorities’ want us to subscribe.
Real waking up means the realization of what a human being actually is, this being the reason why we must fight tooth and nail to keep lunatics out of our representative offices.
I have no patience with anyone who throws in the towel at this critical stage of human evolution.
Still, starting from scratch requires rules that are agreed on, enforced and based on eternal axioms. It cannot be otherwise and to deny it is infantile.
Son to father, “I’m sick of you telling me what to do! I’m joining the army!”
You must have some patience if you still think there is a “we” …
‘The real struggle is the one the “pandemic” lie inadvertently exposed to us all in stark clarity, and which we are all now being driven to forget as quickly as possible by all the above distractions.
It’s between us as individual humans and the techno-fascism that is being rolled out globally.’
You missed out some binaries there.
In fact you demonstrate (through this comment) why this website has failed to point to any serious solution to the problems it does so well at identifying. If the only meaningful struggle is between the individual and the techno machine, then it is over from the start, the discussion is moot and not even worth having. Only some kind of collective action forms political response, or ever has.
What can bring people together with a sense of common purpose ?
Perhaps our opponents (‘fascists’ as you call them) are bound and driven by a historic and deep rooted sense of common purpose, one tied to certain ideas – the discussion of which is forbidden in the ‘acceptable discourse’ within mainstream and alt media alike ? According to the intellectual climate of the Guardian and OffGuardian both, we have to confront the issues as individuals, powerless, unincorporated. This is why things only move in one direction : one side can draw upon the power of collective action and common purpose, the other, even if awake to some of the issues, is not allowed to draw upon the only resources that offer hope of redress.
OffG has stood by its principle of questioning narratives, but only to a point within its comfort zone of inoffensive, individualistic liberal framing. Certain historical, political narratives stand here as unquestioned, sacrosanct, holy cows. Until the principle is applied consistently, then the framing remains distorted. Remember how distorted your framing of the world was before you studied 9/11 with an open mind?
Fine to criticize articles, authors and comments, but “why this website has failed to bla bla bla…” is a non-starter.
YOU (and the rest of us) are the whole point of this website, and if you have anything to say, for heaven’s sake just say it.
“This website” is simply a window in which we can advertize our views.
After all, the editorial articles here can be ignored as easily as anything else with which we don’t agree, and our opposing views are not censored.
OffG is not a religious cult with “leaders” whom the readership must follow, nor has it ever hinted at such a bizarre scenario.
To get to the only real issue you raised, “What can bring people together with a sense of common purpose ?”, I would say that it is the free decision of like-minded individuals to do exactly that – to come together.
But my emphasis would be upon the “like-minded individuals”, rather than those who subscribe – as a group – to this, or that, organized ideology.
OffG has never made me feel that I should agree with its leadership. Far from it.

Be aware the adoption of the ‘normal’. You are being framed, if you know you are being invited to contract with an offer, you are free to choose not to accept it.
Normal in this sense is a conditioned sense of self and world.
Natural can also be misused, but can point to that which is ‘of itself’ ‘as is’ or without artifice or man-u-facts.
The breakdown of a social masking ‘reality-adjustment’ holds an opportunity or Call to align in reality, as is, or a priori to our narrative conflicts under an Authority problem.
Without the Call to reintegrate and align truly, a cycle of compression or gathering seed qualities of potentials for expansion in new growth, are lost to mere contraction, limitation and death. There Is a Choice within a mindset of meaningless choices, and this is to see such a mindset as no longer representing who and what you truly are, and have joy and freedom in being (if it ever truly did!). So to notice its patterns, and choose NOT to use them. This is not at all to choose to oppose them in yet another polarised refinement of strategic identification under a world that makes you in ITS image. (with your consent).
So we can withdraw consent at the level of reactive behavioural impulses, by pausing or desisting them from reinforcement as our habit or ‘normal’.
‘Control’ mind wants to define in order to predict and control, so will seek to keep us in a crab barrel world. But a fundamental faith or trust in our being, in existence itself is a movement OF being that knows itself in the living and giving, and not in the grasp of a proprietary possession. There is a balancing of Self and ‘normal service’ that requires discernment such that we act from a wholeness of being instead of consenting to a disconnect of a mind running a head of, and getting lost in its own spin, as a sense of limitations, constraints and strictures set in dying structure.
True answers are not a re-manipulation of symptoms, to a ‘balance of powers’ demanding sacrifice, but a confluence of self interest or revealed needs. This is another shift from pathogen-driven to a terrain guided sense of life.
We do not truly ‘live’ in the spun out ‘reality distortions’ of a mind made mad by its own reversals of cause and effect. Thoughts cannot really imprison mind. But we can ‘fall asleep’ in our thinking, to become normalised to see and react as if there is no other way of seeing and being.

Will people like Sayers ever realise that nobody gives a fuck about what “the British” think?

Kremlin Spokesman: “There is no war in Ukraine”
May 12, 2022
Freddie Sayers meets Dmitriy Polyanskiy.
First Deputy Representative of Russia to the UN Dmitry Polyanskiy joins Freddie Sayers to discuss the nuclear threat against NATO members and possible conclusions to the conflict in Ukraine.
00:00 – 00:42 – Introduction
00:42 – 02:11 – Does the Russian government believe they haven’t invaded Ukraine?
02:11 – 04:33 – If the focus was solely on Donbass. Why is there military activity in other parts of Ukraine?
04:33 – 07:40 – Is Donbass still part of Russia, in their government’s view?
07:40 – 09:21 – Is it a humanitarian intervention?
09:21 – 11:59 – Was there actually a retreat in Kyiv, or was it part of a plan?
11:59 – 13:21 – Dmitry’s statement on the loss of Russian troops.
13:21 – 15:16 – What are the definitions of success for the Russian government?
15:16 – 18:46 – Is there a diplomatic solution to the invasion of Ukraine? What would make Russia withdraw?
18:46 – 21:09 – How does Dmitry think this invasion will play out?
21:09 – 24:51 – How will Russia react to Sweden and Finland joining NATO?
24:51 – 29:22 – Is there a possibility of a nuclear escalation?
29:22 – 33:25 – With all the losses and on the Russian side. What does success look like for them?
33:25 – 41:16 – The denazification of Ukraine
41:16 – 42:50 – Concluding thoughts
why do people keep pushing this deeply unsettling androgynous android down our throats?
how does a literal who? get access to so many influential individuals?
perhaps it’s just me, but the thing known as freddie sayers doesn’t seem entirely human
Following the great dumbing down of the last few decades, there was a need by the establishment to create sources which are at least somewhat intelligent. Hence, the “intellectual dark web” and UnHerd. In general, I pay very little attention to establishment sources, but some of Sayers’s interviews are worth watching. It’s interesting that there’s no record of which school Sayers attended (I would guess somewhere like Charterhouse), so it’s possible he’s some sort of AI, shapeshifting creation.
I pay very little attention to establishment sources, #
97% of everything you post is military intelligence = establishment.

An American called Margaret Anna Alice has been posting excellent (often lengthy) articles re. this heinous global scam ever since it saw the light of day.
Here’s her latest: would be excellent if all the ‘sheep’ would agree to read it.
“Letter to the Menticided: a 12-step Recovery Program”, at:
https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/letter-to-the-menticided-a-12-step
This was excellent! Thanks for the link!!!
My pleasure! Yes, it truly is an excellent article, totally agree! She writes many such items, all very much ‘to-the-point’, addresses these vital areas.
As I said above, it’s a document that all the ‘sheep’ on the planet should read. But the tragedy is that they won’t… most of them refuse to accept anything that doesn’t come from their beloved TVs…
Thanks!
King Elon will save us. BitChute said so. Elon and Trump love us. La la la.
The cryptocracy seeks to manage our relationship with nature 100%, making nature out to be a constant source of new threats to us. Any narrative which maintains there is a truth to the entire “COVID” fraud is assisting this goal.
biophobia…. its been around since the Old Testament and we are now seeing its logical conclusion.. it is no accident but an infection by non-biological parasites that seed the fear in human minds.
The model is the ancient city-state, with high walls: full control over the inmates, who may only go out for farming, skirmishes, etc.
I maintain that you need to differentiate between Covid, a disease, and the political maneuvering around it. Just as incidents like 9/11 happen (tolerated, encouraged or not) and then capitalized on to push changes on society that would normally be met with extreme skepticism a global pandemic can be adjusted to suit the purposes of whoever controls the narrative.
The problem we’re facing these days is that narrative control is wearing a bit thin in places, there are numerous collisions between the reality that’s being sold and the public’s perceptions. This is where carefully crafted disinformation comes in. There are countless examples of this but I think the most interesting one currently unfolding is what’s going on in Northern Ireland. Here you come face to face with ‘democracy’ being all about persuading people to make the ‘correct’ choices. Usually it works — the result might be close but it always seems to be ‘close enough’ — but occasionally people get it wrong and that’s when the gloves come off. To me this election was not about a united Ireland but effectively a referendum on Brexit. The people of NI have obviously made the wrong choice in demonstrating their interest in staying close to Europe (represented by Ireland) despite an electoral process that’s quite obviously rigged against them (one party is given favored status because that party has the ability to maintain a narrow majority in the UK Parliament). It will be interesting to see how this gets handled by the Whitehall spin machine, especially as it has its hands full selling wars (cold and hot), austerity (you’re not really suffering from food or fuel poverty and anyway its someone else’s fault — default is “global market” but there’s any number of bugbears that can be used.
This is just a warm up for the main event, of course, where a minority tries to abrogate rights of the majority in the US. Here we have had minority rule for years but as people are now at some pains to keep telling us, we’re actually not a ‘democracy’, we’re a ‘constitutional republic’. This walk back from democracy has been going on for a couple of decades, probably longer, but its starting to get quite nasty as the minority pushes against the mass of people who originally didn’t want to be bothered but now are finding themselves being harassed. (Meanwhile our lack of democracy won’t stop us actively promoting it overseas, often to all manner of unsavory regimes!)
Why the persistence of this notion that the rulers can capitalise on unforeseen events but can never actually create these events? To posit an exceptionally deadly virus leaves you impotent since such a presupposition justifies everything the government does, even if labelling it “opportunism” or “incompetence”. Ditto 9/11 as external attack.
Of course ‘they’ can create crisis events. But its like farming — you can plant and tend crops or you can keep your eye out for anything growing in the wild that looks useful. Natural events happen all the time and they don’t have to be pandemics. So there’s usually a ready supply of crises (or things that can be blown up into a crisis) without the trouble and expense — and potential risk — of creating them from scratch.
Once again I recommend reading “The Shock Doctrine”.
To extend that metaphhor, some of what they have found “growing in the wild that looks useful” have been fully operational farms with all the latest facilities … which just happened to be there!
For those who have been saying a lot of people are beginning to wake up to at least the vaccine scam (and I admit not being one), here’s a little reward – a little “I told you so” moment for you guys.

Public and private is one duality I’d be happy to keep.
Bravo – simple and to the point. Let’s keep it this way and focus on what needs to be done to manage around their evil plots which have one fatal flaw – they require compliance. We don’t have to give our power to them we can merely walk away.

Bingo! Nailed it! Dead-on! Bull’s eye! Hear, hear! and well said! 🤓
One of the biggest fake dualities – possibly in the long term the biggest – is nature vs. science/technology.
There’s no problem with science that seeks to understand nature’s workings. There’s no problem with the scientific method if it means knowledge gained through observation and experimentation.
The problem is that it’s been weaponised into a fake duality. Firstly, much of what’s passed off as science isn’t based on the scientific method (leading astro-physicists, for example, boast of the fact). Secondly, science advocates have been programmed to assume that anyone who questions anything they claim must be some sort of fundamentalist or evangelical (both of which movements are creations of the very forces also pushing science). Thirdly, science has been hijacked by those who don’t seek knowledge of nature to help it or to glory it but to overthrow it. They, the transhumanists fronted by Kurweil and Musk, imagine they can do so much better than nature but all they can create are pale imitations.
Pseudo science + Fear = LOADSAMONEY !!
Yes. The cryptocracy attempt to destroy and pervert nature. Their stated goal is always the opposite of what they are attempting to accomplish, so on the surface they use catch phases such as ”improvement” or ”advancement” or “inclusion”, but the real goals are racketeering, destruction, deception, perversion, control.
Imitation, mimicry and simulation are their trademarks. this is why they are so keen on VR and simulations of the real world.
They are desperate to replace everything with a fake.
And they act like everyone else is driven by ideology and bias but they themselves are driven by some pure, rational, disinterested search for truth. In reality, scientists and technocrats are anything but unbiased and dispassionate. In fact, great artists, or novelists or historians are very often far, far more capable of rationality than technocratic scientists, whose messianic streak and Puritanical revulsion from Nature As Is often renders them utterly incapable of true rationality.
Let me summarise: capital has corrupted science and technology.
Something is eating off fear. You can take it to the spiritual level if you wish, or just keep it material (though the distinction between the two is, I suspect, another fake binary). We now that there is profit in fear. From arms manufucktures to pills for hair loss, fear, fear, fear. Fear of the supernatural, fear of the natural, fear of the crowd, fear of being alone.
Yes. it is the same psychic parasite that has plagued humanity for 3 millennia… Yaldabaoth, a.k.a YHVH…
Bread and circuses – oh hang on, bread and crises – sod it, best to combine the two: a no bread crisis.
Many people around here believe that a global “techno-fascism” is doable. I don’t. Such a future would require a lot of fuel that we just won’t have. We will run out of cheap enough fossil fuels and there’s no scalable replacements.
Good old local fascism on the other hand; we haven’t seen the last of that fella …
What if oil was ‘abiotic,’ and naturally replenished within the earth’s bosom, as much evidence demonstrate?
I also believe you are correct, it is abiotic. Remember all the peak oil bollocks as the dates were shifted from the 70s to the 80s then the 90s then the early 2000s, its never happened and more and more oil is being ‘discovered’!
It requires a lot less fuel if people aren’t allowed to travel, and/or if there are a lot fewer people left to travel.
Plus, if the Georgia Guidestones give us any clue, they plan to eliminate about 85% of the human race.
Yes, you could maintain that number in perfect balance with nature.
There is absolutely no shortage of hydrocarbons. TPTB are not developing them cuz they want to make the earth unable to support its population. Here is part of a longer list. Almost anywhere you drill, you come across oil & gas– especially on the ocean floor cuz then you are already pretty far down.

http://journal-neo.org/2015/03/29/putin-s-new-mediterranean-strategy/ Engdahl. Cyprus recently confirmed huge deposits of offshore oil and especially natural gas.
12/13 Syrian government signed a 25-year deal with the Russian SoyuzNefteGaz company to explore for oil in the Middle Eastern country’s territorial waters off the Mediterranean coast, southward off Tartus. estimated to be oil and gas reserves comparable to one or more new Saudi Arabia-size regions . SoyuzNefteGaz main shareholder is RCB.

The discovery in late 2010 of the huge natural gas bonanza off Israel’s Mediterranean shores triggered other neighboring countries to look more closely at their own waters. The results revealed that the entire eastern Mediterranean is swimming in huge untapped oil and gas reserves. Preliminary exploration has confirmed similarly impressive reserves of gas and oil in the waters off Greece, Turkey, Cyprus and potentially, Syria. Greece: Major geological surveys were made. Preliminary estimates now are that total offshore oil in Greek waters exceeds 22 billion barrels in the Ionian Sea off western Greece and some 4 billion barrels in the northern Aegean Sea. [1] Greek analyst, Aristotle Vassilakis, “surveys already done that have measured the amount of natural gas estimate it to reach some nine trillion dollars.”Southern Aegean Sea and Cretan Sea are yet to be explored, so the numbers could be significantly higher.

I have a longer list; this is just a partial. Peak Oil is a hoax. And yes, of course gas & oil are abiotic.
David Icke has been saying the exact same thing for,oh,just the last
thirty years or so.
that is doesn’t matter who you vote for.the cult runs it all. yet he told everyone to run to the voting booth regarding the leave E.U vote as the elites had made a mistake.
Really? Interesting.
I trust you have read his books?
Worth watching, if its still out there, Was David Icke Right? Well, do the research and he was right on all counts so far and it will get worse when his other predictions and warnings come to pass, so we need to wise up but I fear to many peeps have spent their time very unwisely dismissing him and others as so called conspiracy theorists instead of researching which was ably confirmed by peeps sucking up the covid bollocks. If there is one thing we learn from history is we do not learn from history! Have felt now for at least the past 20 years, in fact since chemtrailing became so obvious, that the hard of learning deserve what’s coming and remember, a lot of these people claim to love their children, what a bunch of cretins!
Also, where are all the mainstream religions on what’s happening? Oh, silly me, it must that all loving god’s will!
What is worth a read if anyone can find it is The Falsification of History by John Hamer.
They are what prepared the ground for the current “new normal” . It takes time and generations of violence and lying to make such big lies seem like truth.
…”The choice is ours. Wake up or get in line for the New Normal global prison.”…
Unfortunately, it’s much more serious than that..Wake up or die is the reality of the current situation. The casualty rate from bio weapon injections could easily be as high as 3 billion souls in the next couple of years.
Well said, now let’s create a vision that we can unite around to replace their twisted Agenda 2030 technocracy. Together everyone achieves more – TEAM up for a Natural World.
I fear you’re missing the point somewhat. The concept of ‘individual humans’ is that we don’t need to create a vision that we can unite around’. If we are individuals we don’t need to think alike and unite around one single cause. It’s enough to be aware of the agendas that we are being propagandised into supporting and ignoring them. The rest of our lives is up to us as individuals to live.
ps I’m sorry if you were being sarcastic and I misread your tone.
There has been such a vision for hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years. In our modern world it is labeled “Luddite.” And anyone who comes close to it is automatically laughed off any platform.
Until enough people are willing to take science/technology’s dare and stand up and proudly call themselves a Luddite, nothing will change.
Humanity has spent millennia giving science and technology the benefit of the doubt. And for its largesse it now stands on the brink of extinction.
In science and technology, as in everything else, the bad will always drive out the good. But just enough “good” is allowed to proceed to make people think they’re actually benign disciplines which “a few bad apples” have spoiled.
War, too, is in that category. War is “good” when the “cause” is “good” – when, actually, war is always bad and always will be. There is no such thing as a “good” casus belli.
The day humanity stops making allowances, and excuses, for bad behavior is the first day of Utopia.

“Resilient” is one of the WEF’s buzzwords. that stone should be destroyed.

It’s full of esoteric references: ‘The Invisible Man’ is of course their beloved H.G. Wells; ‘A Man and His Dog’ references ‘A Boy and His Dog’, a story about a loner in a war-torn hellscape by Harlan Ellison that was made into a 1970s’ film…. I guess he’s grown up now; he supposedly set off on 23/4 (see my previous post about the numerology of that) and when did his son just happen to “die” but 3/3!?….
Are the Russians a remorseless killing machine or bumbling incompetents? Never mind the contradiction, they’re both and more – anything, so long as it’s bad!
Must be a pattern here. I remember the story of a 90 year old Afghan man who walked all the way to profit from our open borders in 2015. Beyond silly.
fool card tarot!
Sounds like the J who escaped the concentration camp, got hit by a bullet that only penetrated his clothes, AND dispatched a Nazi soldier with an axe! So badass!
Can’t even enjoy a pint these days. I wish good always wins and the truth will always be out..fuck it I shall enjoy my pint tonight. No compliance. No acquiescence.
Apart from the improper use of the word “fascism”, which originally meant the opposite of tyranny, this statement is absolutely true. As Evola said, it is the struggle to remain human in an increasingly artificial world. May technocracy go to hell.
Agreed, but it’s going to get a lot harder after 22nd May – see here:

Russia vs. Ukraine… East vs. West…
It was western technological transfers to the USSR dating back to 1917 that woke Antony Sutton up to the fakeness of the Cold War. The Red Terror was committed with Westinghouse rifles. What were capitalists doing transfering technology to their avowed gravediggers? “Greed” and “making money” couldn’t explain it so the dialectic had to be fake. Big capitalists turned out to be some of the biggest communists.
This isn’t to say that the Russians couldn’t make some decent technology of their own. The T-34 tank is probably the supreme example. T34 is 234 in numerology. Add that number left-to-right and it’s 54 which happens to be three lots of 6+6+6 (see also Studio 54). Read right-to-left and it’s 27 which is 9+9+9 (an inverted 3 6s) or three cubed which is another way of writing 33. That’s a lot of significant numerology to dismiss as coincidence. I must have missed the bit about numerology in Marx or Lenin…
We see the same pattern with vaccines through Moderna – or through Russia being a co-host of Cyber Polygon. If “Russian hacking” was real, why on earth would they be invited to your cyber-security event? Does anyone else notice the defeaning silence of the so-called MSM on this whole issue? Putin may be worse than Hitler and worse than ISIS – but don’t suggest there should be a ban on technology transfers!
Exactly. The allegedly mortal enemies US and USSR even fought as allies in the biggest war yet seen on Earth, but somehow the sheeple, including plenty of “analysts”, keep believing the antagonism was real, because the history books say so.
Your conclusion that because the US and the USSR fought as allies in a war, antagonism between them cannot be real is nonsensically illogical. They might have been allies in respect of one issue at one time, but adversaries in respect of something else at another time. Correspondingly, Germany and the US were enemies in that war, but became allies shortly thereafter and the Americans even hired the guy who invented rockets to work on their space program.
Were the US and the USSR mortal enemies? It depends on the level you’re talking about. Was there, somewhere at the top of the pyramid, some collusion, control over both sides, tacit or explicit agreement? Maybe. Maybe some of it. Did it matter for the zillions of people closer to the bottom, who got persecuted or shot? Hardly.
There is more stuff involved than meets your eye I’m afraid.
The “war” is not simply government vs. government. It’s international corporations. Since the invention of the corporation used to manage (and pillage) far-flung colonies – Britain’s empire – they have functioned as the means of extraction the world over – predominantly by the West, but most assuredly by the USA.
As corporations gained evermore power, along with the banks (which had been quite powerful in Britain,and exported to the US) they became the economic engine behind US imperialism. We see this throughout the Western hemisphere, Latin America and near and far East. (Major General Smedley Butler summarized this in War Is A Racket).
Regarding Nazi Germany and USSR it’s clear that US industry worked hand in hand providing much of the technological where with all – as they’ve done with China. The US military-industrial complex works hand-in-hand with the industrialists, and now Big Tech. Nazi Germany’s rise to power could not have happened, nor China’s without Western Industrialist/Financial/Tech hundreds of billions $$$ investment.
At some level there are adversarial arrangements which keep the game in play. The USSR always wanted to be a Western/US partner – and still does.
I have doubts that nuclear war has ever been a possibility. It doesn’t have to be. The mere propagandized threat and the imagination it presents is sufficient. (I liken it to invisible pathogenic viruses which have never been proven to in reality exist – but don’t have to because you can control much of the world’s population just by propaganda messaging.)
If ever off-guardnog decided to write Editorials, may they all be as clear, well-written and incisive as this. The nameless author has my thanks.
All the ducks are in a row ( i couldnt resist)
Virus,War,Famine,Climate,Gender,Energy,Despair
The masses are afloat on their graphenated valium
The nudge units have filtered the variables (thanks to us)
Only a few know the distinction between deity and technology
And some of those that do are still confused
Cue drum roll, cue your incredulity
I think “they” are about to offer us……
Something Better tm
They used to call it “leftfield”
I think we will need a new expression to cover this next bit.
Eyes and ears folks and be ready for the unexpected and keep that collective big bag of Hope real close.
And speak kindly to the awakening, the last thing they need is to verbally assaulted..
Uk can no longer process scrap steel, whilst an intriguing but irrelevant fact for many, an understanding of the cycle of “waste” informs what an indicator this is.
Trains a comin off the tracks, choo, choo
We’re not ready yet.
I think you are correct but the “Something Better” will only be fully operational when the alternatives look even bleaker.
I.E. When your mortgage payments and cost of living go through the roof, handing over your deeds for “Guaranteed roof over your head and income for life” will seem to be an attractive proposition.
‘for life,’ I’m sure that would be a reduced lifespan.
You ville eat ze bugs and like zem.
For your information (updated):
https://swprs.org/covid19-facts/
Glad someone thinks they are facts….not mine.
Tis the flu rebranded and weaponised Edith.
That’s all.
And that is a FACT, well said.
Serious question to you, Edith. What is wrong with the facts and the organization presenting them? Are they inaccurate and if so, why? I used the site as a reference often but not much lately. Not trying to argue. Just trying to understand what’s wrong with their information. Is Swiss Policy some kind of shill or are you another leftist “fact checker” trying to undermine truth? Just trying to understand.
There is no such thing as covid, all the fucking pointless little studies are just pointless even talking about
There was/is flu. There was/is masking. Great graphs of all cause deaths from year to year and month to month. Overall great statistics. Covid or flu the statistics prove that it was not a pandemic. Vaccines were never needed. Simple therapeutics could have saved huge numbers of lives. Large numbers of people were killed and maimed by vaccines that were never needed. PCR testing was questionable. Blah Blah Blah. It’s all there.
I look at the data as a polite and professional way of saying exactly what you just said. There are many idiotic high level leaders who truly don’t know what happened and only trust the CDC and WHO. Banging them over the head does not work. Their egos are in the way. You need to be gentle with them or they will close up and shut you out again. They need to be carefully led to help them draw the correct conclusions on their own. The opportunity is now. This site needs to be revisited now that the idiots are relaxing and opening their minds a little. The window won’t be open long. The State of Pennsylvania just called for a new mask mandate.
I did misunderstand Edith’s meaning and truly needed clarification. My bad for implying she might be a self anointed “fact checker”. Sorry if I got you excited. You should come by for a beer some time…………. Great beaches around here.
Thank you hopefully I will come visit the beach sometime….the sea is always nice
In some plces, all-cause deaths rose because of (a) enforced restrrictions (all harmful) including loss of income (b) withholding of medical care for other illnesses and injuries (c) withholding of known cheap cures (d) totalitarian crack-down on dissident administrators and experts (e) euthanasia before the jabs (f) the jabs.
Marilyn answered it for me,…smile. I am totally bemused that someone would think an ancient like me a fact checker…I am an astrologer who knew this shit was all a game from early days….when David Martin can find patents dating back decades then others could actually do some research….even last American vagabond was outlining Moderna own words about having spike protein computer generated shit before covid…so look rather than ask others to do your work for you,
It’s the gdmn flu. Nothing more nothing less. But people are so weak minded nowadays they can be convinced a turd is a slab of expensive gourmet chocolate.
This is part of the problem that you cannot lead a horse to water etc., so who checks the fact checkers and even more important is who appoints the fact checkers? At some point you just have to put in the hours to do the research but most people spend their lives looking at their fucking phones totally unaware of the world around them, what’s being done to them and what’s coming for them. The fat controllers must be pissing themselves laughing!
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS COVID
What a drag, Marilyn!
I want so so so much for Covid19 to have been developed by the US of As (under the direction of BackStabb OldBummer) in the bowels of Azovstal; tested on 4,000 plus Ukrainian and Georgian volunteers; found to be slightly more contagious than last years model, and unleashed at the Wuhan Military Olympics where US of As funded bio-lab was, indeed, working on corona viruses (but of different, more “natural” nature).
But … I’m willing to let go of all of this. Just give me another, equally valid reason for despising the US of As because as long as they exist, there will never be peace in this world. Because anything that hurts Them, helps humanity.
Their weapons of MASS DISTRACTION have become more insidious and more ubiquitous over the last thirty years.
Everywhere one looks it’s heads down and ignorance quotients up. From the drivel that passes for news to the dribble from the mouths of politicians, corporate types and social media influencers.
We are on a treadmill of trivial mediocrity.
It’s not exactly the Dark Ages, but it comes a close second.
Ours are actually the only true dark ages. No cathedrals being built, only 5g towers.
Same thing though, all about control.
The old Dark Ages likely made the population more resilient and creative,given how it was followed by the Renaissance,but I don’t see that heppening with this New Dark Age.
Relax. They didn’t see it back then …
Sad that 80% of the sheep are asleep.
Tuning in everyday to MSM for their brain washing.
By the time the majority realise life as we know it has changed, it will be too late.
A nation of boiling frogs.
Considerably more than 20% of Americans have tuned out of their MSM. Where they’ve got too many people corralled now is in fake alt-media like Joe Rogan.
That’s the problem, there’s plenty of controlled “alt” content (Peterson, Turley, Jones, the list is endless) and even genuine dissidents are mostly shallow and convinced that the main problem is feminism or homosexuality. Make a remark on the dire state of our ecology, for example, and they’ll immediately brand you a Greta idiot. Very few people get the picture.
A lefty through and through, isn’t he. He is beginning to see the error in his ways but he hasn’t switched yet. Anyone who likes Bernie Sanders is missing a few screws. And Rogan still likes him.
Even sheep can learn. MSM ratings keep dropping like a lead balloon for a reason. Wokeness has grown old. Crime is higher than ever. Inflation is sky high. Food shortages are everywhere. Interest rates are climbing. Just a matter of time before new construction shuts down and when that happens, look out. Won’t be long. Stop feeding and watering the sheep and survival instincts are going to kick in. It’s genetic. They will have no choice. When that happens, all hell will break loose. At the rate we are going, it won’t be long. Next election cycle (if there is another election cycle) there won’t be a Democrat left in Congress. Sheep can learn. Especially hungry ones.
I’m not so optimistic about sheep.
They need a good shepherd, whatever their individual genetic makeup might be.
At any rate it’s very limited what sheep can learn.
Perhaps they can learn – too late – that whether you go this way, or that way, an early death inevitably awaits.
I beg to differ. There is nothing new under the sun. The world has always been ruled through lies and deceit. The only difference between then and now is that the lies seemed not to affect us previously, in the way that it affected the people from Iraq, Afghanisatan, Africa. They were comfortable lies and they were lies that we could do nothing about. They’re not comfortable anymore.
But there is no difference between a comfortable lie and an uncomfortable lie. Or maybe two differences:
1.that the uncomfortable lie makes you realize that the conformtable lies weren’t comfortable for those who suffered under those lies. That realization makes a person friendlier, less arrogant, more cautious, which are all good traits.
2.That in order to challenge a lie, one must first know that he has been lied to. This becomes more and more present by the day for the population at large and so we might see some change as the lie will be challenged by more and more people over time.
It’s not all bad. Actions have consequences, and despair (through propaganda techniques) that is used abundantly through wording in the so called ‘alternative media’ is just a means to keep people in their cage.
And what we’re facing is definitely fascist, it’s obvious if you look https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKc0xmBNWDo

Very few people understand what fascism really was, and this guy isn’t one if them. If we really had fascism now, we’d see the economic and cultural conditions of the working class get better and better, as was the case in Italy and Germany before both nations were crushed by the capitalist-communist banking elite. Of course I have no hope that the stigma inculcated by 80 years of lies will ever clear. In popular culture, “fascist” is now synonymous with evil, and the Orwellian reality inversion is here to stay.
If you’re a working class person and you value money above freedom, fascism might not be a bad deal.
If you’re a working class person and you value freedom above money, what are your options?
I’m not seeing any really good ones.
No one knows the definition of fascism because everyone has a different opinion on what it is or was. The definition keeps morphing. A powerful word that so many people are clinging to in order to benefit their cause. And the causes are widely diverse and conflicting but yet they all claim to be fighting fascism. The word is more meaningless than ever. The word has become a joke. In high school history I learned that bad people were fascists because they overpowered and hurt other weaker people. What comes to my mind, oddly. ANTIFA.
For almost a century, the main propaganda effort has been to link it firmly to the worst aspects of the Nazis and Axis powers. The goal is to normalise and justify private finance and usury.
We live in an era of contrived illusions and fake realties foisted upon us by the global elites and their minions. They want us to believe their lies so they can further their agenda of world domination. It is not about capitalism vs communism or socialism, it is not about religion vs atheism or the dichotomies listed in the article. It is about freedom vs enslavement, enlightenment vs zombification and life vs transhumanism. The psychopathic 1% are planning a hell scape for us that makes 1984 and Brave New World look tame in comparison to the dystopia the overlords have in store for us. Don’t give in to the fearmongering, the deceit and the malaise of hopelessness and helplessness. THE UNIVERSE (THE ALL) is on our side we are part of it it is in every cell of our being and it is far greater than the miscreants who are attempting to impose their New World Order on us.
This short article is very much to the point. Keep up the great work Off-G!
‘What we are now living through is more than just a staggering imposition on everybody’s freedoms; it is also a massive campaign to falsify the truth. People consent to limitations on their personal freedoms when they accept the uncorroborated data and opinions conveyed by the media. Advertising has long gotten us used to a discourse that works better when it does not pretend to be true. And for some time, even political consent has been given without the presence of actual conviction – the assumption being that truth is not at stake in electoral speeches….’
‘Why is there still faith in falsity, even when the falsity is documented ? We should say that the lie is held as true precisely because, like advertising, it does not care to hide its falsity…’
‘Humanity is entering a phase of its history where truth is being reduced to a moment within the march of falsity. The false discourse which must be held as truth is true, even when its non-truth is revealed…’

I suppose it could be said we all live within An Empire of Lies, immersed in a totalitarian propaganda environment … Advertisements (PR) for Capitalism’s consumerism , always promising satisfaction ,but “(i cant get no) Satisfaction !” (1960s longhaired pop group)…
They dumped consumerism 10-20 years ago. Reaganism/Thatcherism was a model for a particular moment designed to generate more wealth which could then be concentrated in the hands of the few. It’s not the ‘true’ ideology of the elite (they don’t have one: ideologies are just playthings).
The officially promoted ideology now is actually a kind of anti-consumerism.
Facebook is now Meta. A tube will send you macro-nutrients as you frolic amongst the gods.
Fakers faking faked fake fakeries.
It is the Mind that can only function with binaries. Black vs White is about its reach. Time for Evolution to come up with full spectrum vision/ feeling, which will avoid conflicts as it sees all facets of our diamond. AI is not it at all: it is just a non biological Mind extension, a fancy artificial leg. Needed is something totally different, which Mind itself can’t create because it can’t envision it at all. Could the primordial ape envision Mind? Could a plant envision free motion, or a fish life on land, or a rock life?
“Binaries” is not a dirty word…I’ve no problem with binaries…Imagine the confusion that’d reign if there were three sexes ! “Binaries”, they’ve gotten a bit of a bad rap lately, but where’d we be without them ?
True that for sexes digital makes more sense than analog. Two sets of toilets should do. Although Nature does make its occasional DNA replication “mistakes”, which sometimes turn into a new species.
Some things are genuinely dualities – but most aren’t. This obsession with dualities comes from the twin pillars of freemasonry which in turn has roots in older philosophies like Manichaeism.
Dialectics and therefore Marxism are slap bang in this tradition.
fake moon landings
fake pandemics
fake nukes
fake celebrity slaps
fake police killings
fake school shootings
fake trails
all the worlds a stage
True
Sadly, the nuclear explosions and the trails in the sky are real.
If this is a test, I choose the Pandemic and the slap.
And the actors aren’t particularly talented.
Stop the world I want to get off.
This is a Manichean view. What ever happened to intellectual distinction…. now we have arbitrary 25 word editorials.
Psssst…. It’s the spectrum…. Chhhht
Feel free to write your own fx.
We are drowning in words.

I prefer short and simple over wandering arrogant pontificating, myself. Just the facts Ma’am. Just the facts.
