Russia building “Safe City” surveillance grid
Moscow mayor’s office will collect CCTV data from throughout Russia as part of his friendly total surveillance set-up
Riley Waggaman
You have such a nice face. Would you mind terribly if Sergey Sobyanin, the Techno-Khan of Moscow, stored it in his centralized data center, forever?
And would it be okay with you if he identified your soft, supple face, even if you live in Chelyabinsk and have never stepped foot in Moscow?
Yes, of course that’s okay. You are flattered Sobyanin craves your face in such a passionate and intense way.
Kommersant has the steamy details:
The Moscow Department of Information Technologies plans to finalize a unified data storage center, at the facilities of which the capital’s face recognition system operates, to centralize the collection of video streams in all regions of the country.
From a technical point of view, this is logical, experts admit, since now no region can afford full-fledged computing power to process such a volume of data. The centralized analysis of video information becomes relevant in the face of an increased terrorist threat and the search for people who evade mobilization, participants in the Internet search market believe.
Round one of partial mobilization is basically (officially?) over, but we’re sure Sobyanin can utilize this “centralized analysis of video information” for all sorts of prole-hunting, and not just Evader-hunting.
There’s a precedent. In February 2020, Sobyanin announced that compliance with COVID quarantine measures in Moscow would be monitored using the city’s facial recognition system.
As we documented in July, cities across Russia are becoming very Smart—and very, very Safe.
And the smartness and safety-ness grows exponentially with each passing day:

To begin, Russia is legally correct to defend itself against NATO, which broke legal agreements against it. Russia is bringing war crimes tribunals, a legal mechanism to resolve wrong doing. Russia is requesting the UN to investigate US bio weapons labs in the Ukraine. Again, Russia is taking a responsible and legal tact to resolve a very evil thing done against both itself and the people of the Ukraine. For this, I am grateful and I have respect.
Simultaneously, as others have pointed out, there is a wider war against all of humanity. When I look at Russia, I see their political leadership as wholly on board with this agenda. As of now, China and Russia are leading the pack to implement the WEF’s vision of global fascism against most of the world’s people.
Saying this is not to deny that many nations dream of doing such a good job. UK is coming right up, as is Canada and Australia. The US is only lagging behind a bit, I believe, because we have a second amendment.
The WEF’s stated goal is to move power from the West to the East. As far as I can tell, that is exactly what is happening. I don’t see any good guys here.
If it were true, why you guys complain about Western CCTV programs…this goes far beyond as one would expect it from totalitarian NAZI shithole country!!! Obviously it is needed in a country full of thieves, thugs, murderers, rapists and mafiosi…but wait the country is governed by the NAZI mafia then it is only for controlling the enslaved citizens…that’s why we should get asap rid of this country in its current form!!!
I’ve lived in Moscow. And had a good time (an understatement). Read news beyond ‘The Moscow Times’. Ventured off the beaten track…
And why was that? Why not wallow in dystopia as some would expect?
Maybe the key is to make the most of things. To not spend one’s whole time whingeing unnecessarily. After all, what’s the alternative? A hankering after one’s homeland ? Being in a foreign land merely for profit…??
I would suspect the roots of ‘whole-life-enjoyment’ are made early in life.

Just saw this on the TV listings:

Here’s how it ends:
Rage at government incompetence over the handling of the deadly pandemic!
Intrigued by the Wiki category “Films about the COVID-19 pandemic”, I thought I’d check it out:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Films_about_the_COVID-19_pandemic
Just look at them! Dramas, romantic dramas, comedy dramas, zombie movies – hell there’s even a couple from those ever so subversive South Park boys, one of which has a synopsis which starts:
Really radical questioning stuff!
I’m pretty sure Sergey Sobyanin’s wife just loves him to pieces. Perhaps they enjoy filming their love making trysts in the bedroom…
When societies continue to produce his measure of mind, what can we expect as a result? (The phenomena is obviously not limited to Russian populations)
Karl Marx spent his entire life as an anti-Russian shill under the protection of the British aristocracy. From his bizarre pamphlet claiming Palmerston was a Russian agent to his support for the Crimean War to his support for Poland against Russian via the 1st International Working Men’s Association to his final days preparing revolution in Russia. A model of discretion and obfuscation when dealing with “the bourgeoisie” at home he knew how to go for jugular of regimes the British didn’t like. It was all about fighting for socialism in far off places: a bit like some elements in the anti-lockdown movement fighting for freedom in Russia and China
Big brother is watching our every move!
Did anyone else catch the latest James Corbett/James Evan Pilato episode of New World Next Week? There was the strangest thing.
Mr. Corbett definitely believes there’s a streak of realism to all the nuclear talk. Not that he’s alone; but I did kind of get the impression that most “alt media” has concluded it’s all for show.
If indeed it is all for show, that kind of puts Corbett out on a limb. A bit strange.
Putin is right about the West but for the wrong reasons.
Ukrainian Flag
Perhaps this site should display the Ukrainian flag at the top of the page.
denied. Riley adds balance, debatably ; )

I noticed a long time ago on forum’s the any Russia article disagreeing with Putin have the same type of bot vibe as anything that dares to mention that Trump is not helping.
Search always brings up the same sheets called news. The Web Papermill roller has changed little since we used (Today’s) Yesterday’s news as Bog paper or starting a coal fire to heat the home & water tank.
There’s just more cartoons that’s all, some call commercials to make Money.
How much does it Cost now To Spend A Penny? The Bog didn’t have A Flush back then either.
I remember, others Out There will also remember, We are Not Dead YET.
Putin makes speech condemning the west and its actions globally, Waggaman turns up to tell us how bad Russia is.
Transparent.
Does Waggaman believe that the disruption, murder and mayhem caused around the world by the US and its allies for decades can be compared to the actions of Russia in any way? Of course he doesn’t. He’s just here to muddy the waters. Dilute the evil. On this platform.
Transparent.
fair comment, but
yo is stuck
in geopolitik shtuff, whilst really,
a much wider War on Humanity is on.
I can see why you’d think that but it isn’t true, that I’m stuck on geopolitical stuff.
Seeing the absolute state of everything has led me way beyond that, to where I’d probably accept its all the fault of alien overlords at this point.
I don’t:know how much more the poor globalists can take. Dear Russia, please stop destroying the globalists .Thank you,
The most insidious surveillance is that conducted by big tech. https://gregorygarrett.substack.com/p/darpas-lifelog-surveillance-program
I live in South East Europe in the city of 1.5 mil where 10500 cameras are watching every street. Our borders are under surveillance too. Our bank accounts are monitored too. Our every movement is recorded by our smartphones.
All data is streamed and collected in US. No cry wolf. But Russia….. It’s badass.
So why on Earth would you willingly carry a smartphone around with you?
Typo: implementing
If Moscow is so bad and the big P is so evil why are you still living there? In case you haven’t read, they are implemented “smart cities” in all countries.
Isn’t that the point of the article?
Yes because the whole world is turning into a global prison and Russia is no different.
How is it.. things aren’t so bad dude. A little expensive these days but hey wages have gone up too you know, unless have zero skills to offer then you get the bottom wage.
Not ‘is turning’, Pavol. It already is a global prison, the prison bars are just being strengthened.
I want Riley, Iain, and Kit to tell me if the magnets stick to the vaxxed peoples. How much personal experience they have. I have almost 500 experience.
Come on, smart guys, tell me.
???
a better ? “do vaxxed people stick to powerful electro magnets”. Can a vaxxed person safely be scanned by a 31 Telsa Nuclear Magnetic Resonance NMR scanner? What happens to the vaxxed persons cellular internals when a NMR 31 or 44 Telsa magnet is activated? 1 depends on the vax? 2 depends on time since vaccination? 3 has no effect? 4 destroys the nucleus of the cell, 5. opens the cell membrane for outside extracellular content to travel inside (intra inter cellular) transport. or 6. for inside to outside transport? circle one please. Like so many things about the vaccination we the governed are not allowed to know? Like a God, only the maker of the VAxx knows? Its not that we are dumb, stupid, or whatever we are victims of being kept ignorant. Maybe there is a paper on this subject if so please post it
I love these resetters. They’re doing a great job. Let it be a reset for the dirty morons.
argh, aye, but naww
i do not know, nor for me to decide. it is all rather sad, honest.
all the mental behaviours, empty hurry, insanity palpable, angry faces. moron actions,
moneymoneymore, rushrush rush, more, do as yer told, blahhhh to the google.
we know. and many we may never see again, in any realm.
we’ll all be reset,
maybe ours will be a shining star?
CCTV is also the China Central TeleVision 😆
You bet the Chinese are eying the huge neighboring lands of Siberia full of recourses.
If Russia collapses due to Anglo Atlantic stupidity, the CCP won’t hesitate to take “their” huge part of the pie, for free thanks to the Neo-con men.
If Russia falls due to the use of NUKES by those with an interest in defeating Russia, and forcing European and German Industry to move west across the Atlantic, and the world survives, China will be next and after that you will be a slave to the one world government.
a post taken from another website which was taken from the link below. i think it relevant to your statement about vulture China, If Russia falls China will need to settle who gets what part of fallen Russia with the USA, most likely that will end in a hot war. ..
I post the statement here. for your consideration..
“A formal example of a plutocracy, … is the City of London.[10] The City (also called the Square Mile of ancient London, corresponding to the modern financial district, an area of about 2.5 km2) has a unique electoral system for its local administration, separate from the rest of London. More than two-thirds of voters are not residents, but rather representatives of businesses and other bodies that occupy premises in the City, with votes distributed according to their numbers of employees. The principal justification for this arrangement is that most of the services provided by the City of London Corporation are used by the businesses in the City. Around 450,000 non-residents constitute the city’s day-time population, far outnumbering the City’s 7,000 residents.[11]”
quote from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plutocracy
what happens if Russia takes out this city of London(said by some to be crime and corruption capital of the world)? Nothing! The external corporations will still survive.. if you back Russia into a corner, they might respond by taking out the manufacturing base and oil transporting vehicle of every global corporation who supplies the Western world. What then, we all starve? All of us have a problem because of corporate greed and the inability of governments to control it. The governments have become the proxies of the corporations; hence it is the governments fighting the corporate wars in Ukraine and in just about every other war since corporations were allowed.
SAFE city surveillance has become a global necessity for both, or all, sides, as it is useful to identity Trojans, embedded warriors, assassins. So the next new industry will be face mask, eye ball masks, finger print proxies, and the like.
I think China. Iran and Saudi Arabia, are about to join in the war on the Russian side. Xi does not seem to be interested in expanding his territory, he speaks as a supporter of everyone’s sovereignty and seems only to want the trade and to get that trade he needs infra structure, which the Chinese Belt and road initiative is rapidly building..
That is 3 wrong assumptions in a few paragraphs in my view.
More Russian bashing from Riley. Tedious.
That isn’t an argument that refutes the assertions of the article.
Try harder at not just making ad hominem attacks.
got that right
must be kit’s CIA spruke for his ratheon lockheed boeing
dirty HIMARS death merchants
meanwhile IZRA-HELL slaughters the sons and daughters imprisoned in the IZRA-HELL
PALESTINE CONCENTRATION EXTERMINATION DEATH PRISONS!!!
Russian bashing? Can you expand as to why this is Russian bashing? I’m a little behind on this one.
To some people, telling the truth about a government amounts to bashing the country which the government is managing on behalf of a group of elites. Keep in mind, there are people out there who desperately cling to the Putin illusion, it keeps them going, and they hate anyone like Riley who bursts their bubbles.
Remember when it was just “Sputnik V is a placebo, it’s just saline solution, Russian leaders wouldn’t hurt their own people”? Happy days….
That was the exact same play I heard from the Trump / Q lot.
That they was starving the Democrats of Adrenochrome and the vaccine was placebo and Trump Team would never do that as in issue the real jabs it was for show only
Elites going down -Trust the plan. 😂
Some people cannot give up the idea a hero is coming to save them. While that is indeed learned behavior, it seems a really tough one to get people to see through that. An utter waste of time while they argue about which one is the good guy and which one is the bad guy, and perhaps that’s the point of it. Our owners have used that tactic since the beginning of time to divert our attention while they consolidate power, and it still works.
I myself had something of a Putin illusion circa Feb 2022 – but I wasn’t “desperate” (well, desperate to hang on to the illusion at least; otherwise getting more desperate by the day!) – I have found Riley’s work to be extremely useful (if quite depressing) in revising my assessments since then. Isn’t that what it’s all about? Constantly adjusting, revising, testing and not just clinging? It’s just too bad the mayor’s vigilance against the “terrorist threat” was not sufficient to save Dayra Dugina.
Seems no one actually works for a living anymore. They just stroll around taking selfies of one another and complaining about the resolution…
Thank you for sharing this article.
All the knowledge on earth is worth nothing, if we continue to accrue and not do. Albeit, it all boils down to what we do with what we know.
A great start would be to acknowledge an idea from Catherine A-Fitz, withdraw ALL or most of our cash out of the banks. If we did it in great hordes, ‘they’ would soon get the message.
Where I live, diesel is $2.39/L while hi-octane (98) is $1.59/L … if we can’t see an enormous lot of gouging going on, then we are the cause of the problem/s, be it surveillance-on-steroids to wage-fixing. It is past time we staged a ‘fight-back’ because talk is cheap, it is time for action, writ large. It is time to stop bending over and being sucked-in by media gossip-columnists paid to distract all with frivolous nonsense. TAKE YOUR $$$ OUT OF THE BANK, co-ordinate your intentions with as many friends and colleagues as possible, to v-signal message. Time to scare the manure out of the banker-wankers, they have obviously enjoyed too much power for too long.
Have a great day all …

Beware the Down-Vote Troll. Almost every comment prior to this comment has at least one. I’ve noticed this trend in other posts but here today it’s especially bad. Not sure anything can be done except to just ignore them.
There is something that can be done: ask OffG to end the silly voting system. (No, it’s not me giving the down votes – I refuse to have anything to do with the voting system.)
I don’t mind the voting system but it’s obviously flawed and one could certainly argue that the system doesn’t accomplish anything useful.
BTW, I gave your comment an upvote.
Bots gonna bot?
naw, it saves waffle and echo,
despite its flaws.
Yo,
let us all just recognise it for what it is, and it’s -ve cascade..
heid-hunter morons. paid probably. and we all.
i enjoy a good red thumb, there is a time and place,
but was generally unusual for most posts bygone..
now seems standard fare, across general blather…?
just ignore,
they try and lower the tone variously ; )
According to this article,
https://www.tooltester.com/en/blog/the-worlds-most-surveilled-countries/
the most surveilled countries in order are China, US, UK…. Russia isn’t in the top 10.
However, Russia is #7 in most CCTV, with China & US leading the list as usual.
It’s good to know I’m living in the 2nd most surveilled country in the world. Ah, good old USA freedom (TM).

Republicans as designated “Right” stooges now take over the “surging”
role of Evil Covid!
Thanks Riley ! Keep up The Good Work…
In the days of the Soviet Union the MSM told us every bad thing
about the USSR so we’d have no illusions about that place,
would discourage us from wanting to move there…
The MSM made clear “there’s no where you can run to,
there’s no where you can hide !”
( For consolations we were given Credit Cards & The Movies)…
So where to escape to today but to Retreat from the Social…
(‘covid’ sowed dis-trust, “keep your distance !” – and Maggie
Thatcher’s Wet Dream “there’s no such thing as society !”
came true !)
Every spy camera tells us ” They Dis-trust Us ! We Are All Suspects !”
(mental cases & suicides abound)…
Well, my Credit Cards are maxed-out, but there’s still The Movies: i can
dream of being Wonder Woman, or The Hulk, or one of the Genetically
Defect Super Dudes taking on The Dark Forces…Such are the
consolations of learning “Russia ! You wouldnt wanna live there !”
“Retreat from the Social…
(‘covid’ sowed dis-trust, “keep your distance !” – and Maggie
Thatcher’s Wet Dream “there’s no such thing as society !”
came true !)”
Libertarianism and individualism are now the dirty words – it’s communitarianism that now rules. A virtual, synthetic, fake communitarianism maybe but still communitarianism….
Up till now only over fives have been “offered” the shot which means there is an enormous part of the population who have the nerve to dodge the vax axe. But it’s time for these “freeloaders” to live up to their impending deaths as babies are to be “considered” for inclusion.
https://www.ukcolumn.org/video/uk-column-news-26th-october-2022
Latest UK Column – final destruction of the NHS which is now a joke as the money shifts over to the private sector. Meanwhile escalating deaths (yet another DJ being the tip of the tip), none of which of course makes it onto the media which is now saturated with the apparently seismic significance of the rise of Sunak, repetition of Evil Putin meme, ominous omicron (or whatever) hovering in the background etc.
Also, from 25 minute mark, Vaccine Harms Debate a total charade as expected and (this is where I get irritated with UKC) the jumped up little shit who so casually waves away concern about vaccines (under the now soul-destroyingly boring sneers – “climate denial”, “moon landing denial” etc.) is considered to be an “ill-informed person”. He’s nothing of the sort. He’s yet another cloned deep state stooge who knows perfectly well he’s being held by the balls.
“Evil Putin”, The Dirty media!! Stupid fifth column about stupid George – like Born for each other. 👬
How dare you! Or possibly, thank you!
Virtual wards = remote care in the home = set up to fail = speeded up depopulatation.
One of the barriers – perhaps the biggest – is that most people are too “nice” i.e. they honestly think that those creatures up there “wouldn’t do that!”. They would, they do and they will continue.
They’ve set up dying at home as “people’s choice” – and of course like any good lie there’s some truth in it. I’ve had two experiences in an NHS ward in the last five years (one as patient, one as visitor) and it’s not somewhere anyone wants to be.
They’re trying the same trick with depopulation – the birth rate is collapsing because it’s “people’s choice”. People want more independence. They’re just mocking the free will delusion. People may make free choices, but not in circumstances of their own choosing.
Wow !!! What a surprise, a 30 year old “Capitalist Converted” failed country reverting to a complete “Surveillance State”…. 30 years ago, Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street Vulture Capitalists invaded the Fallen Soviet Union with drunken “Boris” in charge… They raped, pillaged, and sold off everything they could “Capitalize on” and now Vlad has turned out to be too smart, too tough, at times, for GLOBO-CORP to deal with…
Funny when an American Puppet ruler gets replaced with an “Independent Ruler”, how quickly we rush to spread our particular brand of “LIBERTY”…. “USA”..”USA”…”USA”… “BOMBS for PEACE” !!!!!!!! HaHaHaHaHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
That’s all true. But it doesn’t absolve Putin et al from installing a dystopian surveillance system.
Vlad is the one installing GLOBO-CORP, but i guess you’re not one for details.
WEFs Dr Yuval Harari has just made headlines again. This time he states that:
“You will have a small elite that will make all the decisions even if it doesn’t benefit the majority of the population….If bad comes to worse, scientists will be the Noah’s Ark for the elite…. leaving the rest to drown”
Well, thanks for that Yuval, I’m sure the rest of us slaves and useless eaters as you call them will look forward to that! However, I still can’t believe the global population will allow your elite pals to get away with it. Who said any resistance on the part of the proles is futile? As for the “scientists” we only have to bring the Convid fiasco to mind.
https://s3.amazonaws.com/archives.halturnershow.com/Yuval-Harari-Elite-Survive-You-all-drown.mp4
I don’t understand the hate he gets
He’s actually calling them out and their plans and their agendas and how they see the world and he actually using the term elites
I don’t see many else who speak in such description to be honest.
It’s not a question of hating the man, it’s a question of the WEF agenda that Harari supports that is going to screw us all. Be happy! 🙄
And, yet, he is part of that very same ‘elite.’ That’s the only reason he’s allowed to “speak out.” They do like to tell us in no uncertain terms what they have in store for us. A version of “Hunger Games” and “Colony” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colony_(TV_series) combined.
Resistance from the people would not be futile. However, I’m pessimistic that will ever happen. In Australia, 97% of the people got at least their first C-shot; averaged out, around 70% of the people complied with C-shot coercion in the western world. Ya think they will rebel? … Maybe, against the few renegades.
Yes, VT I agree: “Resistance from the people would not be futile”.
I was a born pessimist, but now I am a bit more optimistic. People will only put up with things for so long until a situation develops when they can take no more crap such as Convid and all that goes along with it.
Furthermore, I do not believe that it is possible for the so-called “elite” to establish total control of the whole world in the way that they believe they can, and you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.
More people are now beginning to see through their ideological propaganda and psyops programmes which have caused untold numbers to suffer from known sociogenic or psychogenic illness in the name of Convid-19, the latter also includes the usual seasonal flu and flu-like illnesses (nothing to do with alleged “pathogenic viruses” that are always blamed on flu-like signs and symptoms). The proof is out there and need not be repeated here.
I do believe that the restoration of the Common Law – the true Law of the Land is essential outside of their corrupt so-called “legal system”. By becoming a member of the CLCourt people can train as true peace constables appointed by the Common Law Court system. That seems to be the only peaceful way that true justice can be restored, and only then can the appropriate prosecutions be made against corrupt leaders and collaborators who are responsible for the criminal offences that have been committed against the people, and who still remain in service to those who wish to further enslave us and destroy what semblance of freedom and human rights we have left.
commonlawcourt.com
We need to leave maritime/cannon law and make our own land-based laws…..without the involvement of the vatican this time.
I agree that’s why I’m asking and hoping enough people will have enough common sense to join the Common Law Court (international) to help restore some semblance of justice and freedom. Otherwise, nothing good will come out of the current situation and everyone will suffer in the long run.
If people continue to believe that a peaceful solution to the problem won’t work by using common law principles, courts and constables then they have already lost the quiet war being waged against them and true justice and freedom will remain a forlorn hope.
By the way, the TV series The Handmaid’s Tale, depicts a NWO type dystopian theonomic totalitarian society which binds fertile women called “Handmaids” into child-bearing slavery for the society commanders.
The government of Gilead establishes despotic rule in the former USA after a civil war. The ruling elite commanders are religious fanatics but in name only as they brutally subjugate women who are not allowed to own property, read, handle money or have careers. Those who break the rules are brutally punished or murdered, and some are stoned to death. June Osborne after being captured on her way to Canada was bound into slavery as a Handmaid and was forced to accept her new name (legal fiction) Offred, by Aunt Lydia usually armed with a cattle prod!
I mention this as we were bound into slavery without our knowledge when our parents registered our birth certificate with the state. The good news is that the contract was fraudulent as there wasn’t full disclosure of the terms and is null and void. The bad news is that most people are still not aware of the fact and the consequences.

“97% of Aussies got their first covid shot”. Are you sure Veri Tas? Can you give links please.
“.If bad comes to worse, scientists will be the Noah’s Ark for the elite…” Yuval’s middle name happens to be Noah. Puts a whole different meaning on his quote.
Yes, MH, but those scientists will, of course, be Black Magicians, well versed in Black magic which most people do not believe that such things exist. They think Black Magic just refers to a box of chocolates! When science is used for ignoble ends, it is by definition Black Magic and the ‘scientists’ are the Black Magicians.
Whether you like him or loathe him yuval Harari has been telling us this for years. There a good reason now for all of us to wear(PROPER) maskS and sunglasses at all times
Off topic:
How do you make a government sponsored line appear oppositional and radical? Easy: you report – in suitably breathless tones – that it is being deflected, starved of funds etc. Hence:
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2022/10/covid-inquiry-mystery/
“There is still no explanation as to why the judge chairman Lady Poole, the lead counsel Douglas Ross KC and three other lawyers have all quit the public inquiry into the handling of Covid in Scotland. This is an astonishing event. The inquiry currently is not happening. But nobody in the media seems particularly to care.”
Ooh Craig you are so daring! Going where others fear to tread! Bravely enquiring into the collapse of this investigation of covid – OOPS! – investigation of the handling of covid!
“As regular readers know, I have avoided commenting much on covid on the grounds of lack of expertise.”
Really? Well isn’t it odd how Craig forgets such modesty when he says,
“One major issue I have not resolved in my own mind is whether covid-19 was a natural development or an escape from a laboratory of a man made variant.”
Obviously you don’t need experts for that issue, Craig!
Note how Craig has put in the first comment:
“I realise people have very strong opinions on this subject. I look forward to reading them. But please keep them polite and reasonable.”
Well that’s me out!
Jesus! These comments are DUMB! Here is one Julian Bond:
“Can we please stop with the conspiracy theories and the obsession with lockdown. And maybe focus on some real issues.”
Such as?
“Profiteering on PPE, Furlough support, lockdown support?”
Cutting edge stuff!
“Covid is airborne. Why are we still denying this, and still not acting on it?
Get these masks on!
“Vax for kids is not an after thought. There’s really no reason to delay or put additional obstacles in place to stop it happening. Why did this happen?”
Vax the kids!
“There will be another pandemic. What lessons can we learn from this one to prepare for the next?”
In short Julian is “daringly” telling us ….. exactly what the media have been telling us all along!
“Can we please stop with the conspiracy theories and the obsession with lockdown. And maybe focus on some real issues.”
Yes, indeed George – real issues like the conspiracy practices (not ‘theories’) of TPTB that have screwed us all so far and with more to come and what can be done to remedy the situation – I’m open to suggestions, but nobody seems to know what to do that will work – do YOU???
I’m getting more and more depressed. Compliant masses and mafia-like machinations against any groups with expertise and funding to rise up against the corruption. I think we’ve well and truly lost.
but, refuseniks multiply, they do, it seems locally.
: )
powder dry amigo, forward!
VT, one would think that from all the people who post here that regard themselves as reasonably intelligent, very few have come up with any viable strategies to deal with the situation that is now upon us. Small wonder why you are “getting more and more depressed” as you put it.
Being informed repeatedly about what’s going on day after day and what might happen in this quiet war being waged against us with its silent weapons and exposing it, is one thing, doing something else positive about it is another.
I think people in general have reached the ‘let’s wait and see what happens stage’ expecting things to go back the way they were, and with some believing that it already has, at least to a certain degree (the so-called “new normal“), which is not the case. However, some do like to live in cuckoo land!
Everyone here obviously knows full well judging by what’s already been written here that there’s more bad stuff to come and appear to be content with writing about it either before or after the NWO agenda continues to unfold and become manifest, instead of writing about what can be done to stop it by peaceful means.
I must be living in cuckoo land myself because when I ask for any positive suggestions in that department that may help remedy the situation, it usually falls on deaf ears and next to none are ever forthcoming – why is that?
Aye, convid was the end of me ever trusting Craig Murray as a credible source again. I was having serious reservations about him anyway, but now I think he’s just another spook. Too bad my Dad likes to quote him word for word and pretend the words are his own when we talk about plitical matters.
Thanks to our humble correspondent!
You’ve helped me understand why Israel is soft pedaling condemning Russia for its brutal aggression against the democratic Ukrainian, ahh, state. No one can set up an effective, total surveillance apparatus without Israeli technology and there you go.
BTW, do you think you could do us a favor and go down to the Donbass and give us the scoop? You could crowd fund your trip and probably have enough left over for a flak jacket and a good helmet. We really need someone brave enough and humble enough to do some real investigative journalism in that part of the world.
And some people keep insisting that Russia’s 4IR is “better,” like Matt Ehret defending “Zero Covid” and QR codes. Someone on Riley’s blog came up with a good name for such people, EastAnon, like QAnon for the East.
The practical solution is an accurate spludge gun that hits the lens and covers the screens and eyes of the surveillance cameras or even just a paintball gun, or even something that might do more damage when thrown
The Mission should you choose to except it: Night Paintball and Clingfilm groups.
Good Luck Jim
This tape will self distruct in 5 seconds…
But whoever fires the gun will be caught on film.
Good use for excess, surplus masks. Put(in) a mask on the nearest camera.
Anyone who has lived in the UK knows all about video surveillance. A lot of it was first generation — analog cameras feeding banks of monitors — but it would be naive to think that it was never upgraded, especially with the widespread use of ANPR.
All facial recognition systems are is ANPR for humans. Early systems like that in the UK were relatively crude so license plates were designed to be machine readable. Those days are long past, though, and now even the variety of plates used in the US are easily read by cameras and so now the technology is extended to people. Its not just faces that are used to track you, your gait is also a characteristic. (I should mention that the earliest prototypes of facial recognition systems were in the UK where they were tested on crowds at football matches.)
In keeping with our world-wide propaganda campaign — “us” good, “them” bad — we have an article here about how the Russians have joined the crowd. They’re actually a bit late to the party. The UK was a pioneer in mass surveillance, the first computer based system being deployed as a pilot program in Belfast in the 1970s. The US mostly uses outsourcing for ANPR type tracking because of legal and budgetary issues but the Federal government has some very sophisticated equipment, samples of which can be experienced on Interstate highways at checkpoints near the Mexican border. So I wouldn’t worry about “them”, its “us” that’s more important. After all, how long did it take for the identities and itineraries of the London bombers in 2007 to be publicized — two days, wasn’t it?
I absolutely agree. It is camera after camera. A lot of money paid by us to follow our movements.
Instantly, the immaculate passport is now standard biblical in state sponsored psyop like immaculate conception.
Usher my only concern is, why does the CCTV footage for theses dangerous terrorists that appear on the news always look like grainy.? surely the CCTV would be of better quality.>?
The good news is, this question was asked on quora. 🔭

Reminds me – covid, cult of the immaculate infection.
Take another walk on the acceptable surface, Martin. You, like this, will totally destroy your neurons. They want you to feed them a little truth every once in a while. 🌧 😉
Very true.
The London bomber was T Bliar.
At last a comment from someone who knows something about IT surveillance and its main problem.
“I have seen the enemy and he is us” — Pogo Possum
Technology is much more fragile and wrought with massive breakage issues than many imagine. I think somethings they can attempt with some level of experience such as digital currency and degrees of fuzzy logic AI to manage populations. I think smart cities are more pipe dream.
However the damage they can do is incalculable. This has a certain opportunity embedded for their target audience.
They have pieces but integration is way beyond “Klaus’s” pay grade. I suspect their main control will be fear. That has worked reliably for centuries. They’ve made the nuke story run its course for 80+ years. Few question it.
Once you ascend to power and get your hand on the spigot of public wealth for your cronies in the oligarchy, it hardly matters whether grand plans such as smart cities work. If they fail (or after a decade, whichever comes first), another anointed one posing as a political firebrand will come along with another scheme.
Yes, it doesn’t have to work for them to try it. They are not concerned with the consequences. Genetic manipulation is a good example.
All their high-faluting tech stuff is ‘null and void’ without a constant supply of electricity.
It’s called COMMUNITARIANISM folks. That’s what is driving ALL of this. Communitarian Law supersedes all international, national and local laws. The EU is literally the epicentre of Communitarianism, but we never hear about this ever, anywhere. That’s because these f***ing rats don’t want anyone to talk about it. So what can we do? We shout as loud as we can about it, anywhere, everywhere, to wake people up. I just persuaded some solicitor walking out of his office to read THE ANTI COMMUNITARIAN MANIFESTO by giving a quick explanation of what it is. You absolutely need to get your head around this stuff, because to be ignorant of it is to betray yourself and freedom.
Getting out in the real world to spread the good word is where it’s at. As the film Shadowgate revealed, what people in the truth movement need to understand, is that the authorities are VERY good at keeping us penned in the echo chamber of already switched on people. They control and contain the spread of information very effectively, it’s something they are masters of. So, armed with this knowledge, we throw a spanner in to their machine of evil by getting out on the streets to speak to the real people. They can’t do anything about it. Go to your local council meetings with flyers and leaflets and sources of what you know to be good information. Go speak to the people working at the councils. I had a priceless few minutes with some council people. I started off by asking if anyone in the council was talking sense about the genetic injection medical experiment, or if they were just all singing from the same hymn sheet in unanimity. When I demonstrated to them that they were all being experimented on and that they were illegally promoting this crap to children, they went as white as sheets.
Remeece, who penned the awesome tune Don’t Tek Di Vaccine and did loads of great real life on the street work with his friends at Footsoldiers For Freedom especially at schools which had a massive impact on young kids NOT lining up to be poisoned by the state, did a very good interview with Unity News Network which sets a great example and shows what guts and determination can achieve. We are just warming up. No-one has been arrested or charged so far for these massive violations of law and reason, and that must change. Whitty and Vallance deserve to…..
But the bigger picture is all about COMMUNITARIANISM. This is the driving force behind ALL the madness. Covid, smart borders, mass data collection, the notion that the “common good” is now more important than our individual rights (apparently that scumbag Dominic Raab might be making a comeback soon – when last in office he tried to piss all over UK law with his Communitarian driven changes to our Human Rights legislation which was all based on the “common good” – he is totally someone we should keep a very close eye on as a potential traitor)…..it’s all COMMUNITARIANISM.
Please, spread the word. All you have to do is get people to read a book. All the hard work has been done for us, by Niki Raapana and her daughter Nordica Freidrich. It is now our job to make sure that the word COMMUNITARIANISM is openly discussed, so people can easily identify this snakey f******g evil that has slithered its way into ALL of our countries and so called democracies.
SHADOW GATE – FULL FILM by Millie Weaver – 2020 (bitchute.com)
I heard someone say that communitarianism is software and technocracy is hardware. This past summer I was reading up on communitarianism and Agenda 21/2030. Literally anything and everything I could get my hands and eyes on. Then I discovered Alison McDowell’s research and it all made sense to me. A lot of dots connected for me.
…swing. You left a sentence unfinished.

It does indeed Mucho, it has usurped the Common Law or true Law of the Land and put a corrupt legal system in its place for one, but ironically it is only by people coming together to form communities for support, solidarity and to preserve what freedom and human rights they have got left that can challenge communitarianism. Otherwise its divide and rule. Communitarianism is an unfortunate loaded ideological term as it may be easily misconstrued and put people off forming their own community networks opposing what communitarianism stands for and the corrupt legal system which goes along with it.
According to an article by Niki Raapana entitled: On Communitarianism:
“Communitarianism Explained: “The Communitarian Network is a coalition of individuals and organizations who have come together to shore up the moral, social, and political environment. We are a nonsectarian, nonpartisan, transnational association…The Communitarian Network investigates issues and policies such as the balance between
rights and responsibilities in society, community justice, multiculturalism, the community’s moral voice, and developing global society”
But there’s more:
“Communitarians believe that all neighborhoods should be governed like Chinese collectives. They teach that mandatory volunteerism in the community is a moral obligation of all citizens, and that intervening and reporting on your neighbors is required to maintain their individual freedom……….A Communitarian is an academic elitist privy to the solution, and their position in the New World Order is one of the best-kept secrets in the world”.
Oh really! These so-called “best-kept secrets in the world ” are no longer best-kept secrets where NWO elitists and their agenda is concerned.

Not much I can say about the article; except Thank you Mr. Waggaman.

First Report West Is Pushing Ukraine to Negotiate
The German publication ZEITUNG.DE, citing American military experts, including retired representatives of the US Army command, says that the death toll among the Ukrainian Armed Forces exceeds 200 thousand people, or 15-20 thousand monthly.
If they count in territorial defense units that were not part of the army, the previous numbers would rise to about 387 thousand.
It is also reported that the West is secretly increasing pressure on kyiv to negotiate with Moscow.
[I doubt it, cuz US 101st Airborne is on the Romainian border]
The same disgusting, sleazeball shit they always use to justify every modern atrocity: computing space or speed or some other aspect of data accumulation.
How about some “experts” coming forth to ask why the fuck so much data is needed in the first place?
Guaranteed, when they come out with a data base capable of holding quatrillion terabytes of data, someone will suddenly discover a quatrillion pieces of data they absolutely, positively MUST HAVE – like every hair follicle of every human on the planet.
To make us safe, you see.
(Luddites of the world unite!)
As you know, any experts that come forth potentially lose their jobs, and are therefore no longer in the ‘expert’ pool, where they would otherwise have been available to give actual information to anybody who asked.
How I wish the days of tarring and feathering would come back.
A nice, clear, unambiguous message like that is long overdue, and the cosmically wealthy who run everything today need to be made to understand – when the fact comes to light that there is no actual money left anywhere – that THEY will be as much the “underprivileged minority” as anyone ever was.
Tarring and feathering? How about bringing back those classy Jimmy Hoffa designer boots? Probably not enough cement available… And the water pollution. Ugh…
Unfortunately Putin is part of that. Now thats just one city that will be turned into a prison step-by-step. No prisons neended, when we can turn whole cities into prisons. Also already in China.
And just imagine what it’s like in Palestine. They have just set up remote control machine guns directed by A.I. in the “hot spots”.
Jews are forbidden here. They were never involved in any conspiracy. (As in the one where they caught on the suspenders and Putin and Zelensky.) In kindergarten should be calm for children. 👯
Russophobias can be treated.
Even 10 years from now, Moscow will not have as many cameras as there were 10 years ago in London.
really nothing to write about?
yeah, just catch-up compared to sky-net west, agreed.
But stupidity – much more difficult to treat, and in some cases it is incurable.
Lol. Still think Putin isn’t a WEF stooge?
Safe City is a euphemism for Smart City.
Straight out of UN Agenda 2030 and the WEF.
Putin is just a mouth piece banker boss puppet POS.
He is surrounded by WEF people, that he appointed, or behind the scenes approved of the appointment. Personnel is policy.

Saddam
There are photographs of Saddam shaking hands with Rumsfeld. That diddn’t save his neck. The assault on Russia is the playing out of the Wolfowitz doctrine spelled out 30 years ago. Wolfowitz is among the more notorious of the neocons.
Making deals with devils rarely works out well in the end.
I find it hard to believe he hasn’t yet put back together a triumphant Pussy Riot led by a pardoned Navalny to get together with him to belt out the “Ode to Joy” in what was not so long ago Red (get it?) Square.
This would totally confuse the Russian populace (especially the Sputnik vaxxed) and make them even more docile and ready to accept the return of McDonalds, Coca-Cola, Heineken, Renault (forgive me, it’s a long list) with damages fully reimbursed by … yes! The IMF!
Totally wrong.
That is not an argument that refutes the assertion.
Read this, of you can, they try to make an actual argument.

Good for him.
Russia is a part of the globalists’ pantomime play, and ll of the planet-wide madness we’ve been experiencing was designed and implemented by a hierarchy that resides above the sovereignty of nations, at the very top of the global power structure. One does not simultaneously shut the entire world down over a cold virus, without first having control of every government on earth. For the sake of simplicity, let’s call this higher power the WEF or the ‘World Economic Forum’.
This ridiculous Ukraine war is simply the next phase of the global enslavement directive that began in earnest with the lockstep lockdowns in 2020. The end-goal from this deliberate destruction and rebirth of everything is a one-world-government where one entity will own and control everything on this planet, including you. In the WEF’s own words: You will own nothing, and you will be happy. Or else.
And those ridiculous Stepan Bandera fan boys are simply out for a fun Saturday night.
Wake up, those photos of Nazi tattoos are really but those dudes are not real Nazis. How could they be? Isn’t their president a scion of the most oppressed Europeans in history?
The real problem of humanity are the programs of mass surveillance not the Nazi tatoos.
We’ve been saying this for 7-8 months. Give something deeper: detail; where things start; and where they go; clearer outlines of the ultimate goal. We will not read it from you, but just another cowardly, though largely true, repetition of things.
Therefore, you will have a published and highly appreciated comment. That’s how it is here. 🌹
Bollocks
Happening all over. The UK system not as successful as the original human face-recognisers at Heathrow. Can always wear hat, glasses, moustache. We just have to get off their monetary system. In all countries.
Piloted in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars – it’s a dimension of those conflicts underappreciated.
And another example of what is tolerated abroad soon comes home to roost.
