Illusory Guilt
Todd Hayen
You are not destroying the planet. You are not a cancer to the earth that must be wiped out. You are not killing your neighbour, or your neighbour’s children, by not wearing a mask. You are not responsible for the death of untold millions because you didn’t get the vaccine.
Yeah, you are a heathen if you throw garbage out the window of your car. Yes, maybe you could do better as a steward of this planet and as a participant in the enjoyment of nature and the life sustaining resources it offers.
Yes, you (and all these “you’s” certainly includes me, folks) are overtaken by evil at times and run amok with your selfish bullshit and a few of you end up hurting, or helping to hurt, a lot of good folks as well as mucking up the planet.
But get over yourself. You are not going to destroy the planet. That is all propaganda. What you will end up destroying is yourself! There is no question about that.
But you are not big enough, powerful enough, ugly enough, or evil enough to destroy much of anything but yourself and maybe your children. You won’t even destroy humanity. Some of you may help destroy the human race, and a lot of innocent creatures to boot, but humanity will survive. Or, more accurately, humanity will survive if God wills it to. I would not blame Him, however, if He just gave up on us after this current fiasco.
So, let’s get back to the planet. Yes, much of the damage we are doing is real, but we are far from destroying this magnificent blue ball (oops, I mean “magnificent blue disk”—take your pick, I am an equal opportunity Earther).
The earth’s time perception is in millions of years—one million years is equivalent in earth’s perception as one day is to us (if that). The earth will most definitely survive—as mentioned before, it is WE who will not. Yet again we have been brainwashed to believe that we must “change our ways”—all for the wrong reasons—i.e., because we are destroying the world. We wear masks because if we don’t, we are destroying our fellow human beings.
(Another example I will focus on in a minute.) Strange that this odd, twisted sense of altruism has been made into a weapon. But it is deeper than that—it isn’t because we care about the planet, or care about our fellow humans, it is because we feel guilty, and we have been brainwashed to feel that way.
So, do you think I am saying we just shouldn’t give a rat’s ass about the planet, and continue to trash it like there is no tomorrow? No, I am not saying that, what I am saying is that we should be more responsible for the right reasons, not for some crap that is crammed down our throats as being the scourge of the planet and that we don’t deserve to be alive.
What are the right reasons? Love, Character, Responsibility, Stewardship, Decency, Respect, God, Belief in Ourselves, Empathy, Compassion—need I list more?
There are more reasons to cite. You, I am sure, can think of them. However, Guilt is not on the list.
Guilt is a self-serving emotion (or whatever you want to call it). Guilt happens when you feel badly about yourself, and the guilt persuades you to do something in order to no longer feel badly about yourself. We should do things because we know they are the right things to do, not in order for us to “feel better.” But isn’t that the mantra of our current culture? “Feel better”? “Be happy”? “Be safe”? On and on.
Remember, in a galaxy far, far, away, words like “character,” “morals,” “bravery,” and “virtue,”? Probably not.
So, it is easy to think that people who hang themselves with guilt from the tree they feel they have forsaken, are virtuous people. These are the people who really care, they are the ones who will do anything to save our planet.
Nope. I don’t think so.
They feel guilty.
And they were coerced into feeling guilty by the government, by the WEF, UN, and WHO, by the likes of Greta Thunberg and a scad of others operating within the agenda. Guilt, guilt, guilt. Again, I am not saying we should ignore these problems, and some of them are indeed very real, but we must tackle them for the right reasons, not because we have been guilted into it.
The frenzy over climate change is probably the most obvious example of what I am talking about here. There certainly is a problem with human pollution. But are humans really responsible for what we are told are radical changes in temperatures and global sea levels?
I am not going to go into this issue here, as most of you I am sure are quite familiar with the hype being shoveled out regarding climate. But who’s to blame for all of this mayhem if it were as the agenda claims it to be? Us, of course.
It is that plastic bag we didn’t recycle, or the gas guzzling car we drive to our measly job every day, or the farting cows we like to eat.
Interesting how so little attention is paid to the millions of tons of industrial waste dumped into our rivers and oceans by the mega corporations out there, or the radioactive sludge dumped into the Pacific by you know who, or the jet setter’s jets flying to meetings here and there to discuss what other guilt that can be dumped on the billions of useless eaters who are all, surely, responsible for this mess.
And then, of course, we have the guilt over potentially killing grandma (and everyone else) with our nasty Covid germs. So, let’s mask up because we feel so guilty. Since we are guilty of killing the planet with our humanness, we are certainly guilty of spreading a nasty contagion from our filthy, guilty, bodies.
Even if we are certain we have no disease, or even certain that the masks do nothing to block the muck spewing forth from our open orifices, we will still respond to our guilt for being so disgusting. Wear that mask, you pariah, it is the least you can do in response to your hideous guilty self.
And when the jabs came out? Same story. Rid yourself of your reprehensible repugnance through vaccine purification. Pay your debt to your fellow human beings and to the world by sterilizing your humanness and turning into a nano-bot, synthetic DNA, transhuman.
That really is the only way you can dispel yourself of the horrible, mind-numbing guilt you have for being alive. You maggot. You despicable, deplorable, useless eater.
So, if you believe that, go back to square one and start realizing again who you really are—a human being made in God’s image—the embodiment of love.

Guilt is just fear of pain.
In Canada plastic bags, straws and people are Villains.
I just stayed in a hotel, by chance, overlooking the cruise industry-primarily Disney.Day after day hundreds marched on an off-while fleets of taxis lined up three blocks long.Across the way, freighters idle in the harbour-and their masses of containers loaded and stacked on shore.A new Amazon “fulfilment “ Center built on Vancouver Island:21 trucks riding down the highway carrying your pet toys to your door and we are supposed to care about the environment.
Guilt is a god made in the image of those guilty of crimes against humanity from presuming to be gods themselves, beyond good and evil. The abusers who blame victims (you made me do it) must make them guilty of faults to be corrected by discipline and punishment. The psychopaths who rule over us likewise do so for our own good because we are all too evil and must be saved from ourselves. The priests presiding over the temple granaries at the origin of ‘civilization’ must wield myths to mystify masses and cover their original sin of power over life and death of the dispossessed. Sacrificial cult and culture is the magic by which subjects are misdirected from common wealth and welfare to build pyramid schemes of power to honor jealous and vengeful gods. The technocrats and transhumanists who would dispossess us of any remaining possibility to rebel (final solutions) must make us… Read more »
Ritual sacrifice = Voluntary tax.
Guilt = Ultimate mind control.
In a world that prefers security to justice, there is loud applause whenever justice is sacrificed on the altar of security. The rite takes place on the streets. Every time a criminal falls in a hail of bullets, society feels some relief from the disease that makes them tremble. The death of each lowlife has a pharmaceutical effect on those living the high life. The word ‘pharmacy’ comes from ‘pharmakos’, the Greek name for humans sacrificed to the gods in times of crisis.
—Eduardo Galeano
”humanity will survive. Or, more accurately, humanity will survive if God wills it to. I would not blame Him, however, if He just gave up on us after this current fiasco.”
Well, that made me laugh. Of course humanity will survive and of course God wills it to. That’s basically what this shit is about.
I wouldn’t argue with you. I was just being silly.
Playing Devil’s advocate for a minute, I’ve traveled a fair bit and seen some disgusting results of pollution, notably in Indian rivers. I understand other areas in Asia are even worse. I’ve also seen smogs in USA and the explosion of car ownership which is likely to get even more pronounced as “Third World” countries become increasingly consumer economies. Couple all this to burgeoning population expansion and you have an exponential worsening of pollution/air quality which, however you look at it, is detrimental to a lot of people’s health. Most of the people that will suffer are poor so don’t matter to TBTB. But, they’ve discovered that these poor people are currency. They can use their suffering as a stick to beat the rest of us with and so we get the net zero nonsense/ agenda 2030 etc. Obviously, anyone criticising their laudable efforts to control “climate change” is a… Read more »
Amen Todd! Well said brother.
Thank you, man.
It is easy to dupe people who have been brainwashed to see themselves as mere cogs in a soulless, mechanistic universe devoid of spirit/intelligence/purpose/meaning, duped and manipulated into conforming to a socioeconomic political system designed to enrich a super small elite and their minions while the bulk of humanity suffers under their boot heels. So now the plutocrats are playing god creating “synthetic embryos” designing implants ostensibly to “augment” us aa they are work to turn us into Zombies, automatons and lethal “vaccine” pin cushions.
This brings to mind Rene Girard and his scapegoat theory–blame, unite against, destroy–problem goes away.
Humanity, a practice (not just our species) & antidote to inhumanity.
Humanity v inhumanity. We all pick a side its just a question of perception & matter of practice.
We are what we practice & reap what we sow.
Choose wisely & practice well. ✌️❤️
Ecological argument from the Precautionary Principle [PP]: we should act as the degradation of the earth is real because there is no alternative; inaction is fatal; if the degradation proves mistaken we made the earth more hospitable for all of humanity; if the degradation proves real, we made the earth more hospitable and mitigated the worst of the degradation. If the infallible practical argument is applied to human degradation — manifest as economic imperialism, colonialism, dehumanisation and alienation — there are no bad outcomes. We make the earth more hospitable for humanity whichever is morally the highest good motivated by real altruism and not guilt. Conversely, inaction to end imperialism is morally evil as deprivation of the good (privatio boni) as self-preservation. What sort of action is required to end human degradation, imperialism and so on? Long argument short: the same sort of actions that would end human degradation would… Read more »
you’re always the commenter that i am a tad wary of; as most of your comments are above my IQ level; but gotta feeling you’re right more times than not!! Keep’em coming!! RGB-Y3 out!!
Wary of me! I’ll say it easy: there is no psyche — just alien animation by the economy. When the economy is going well as one world imperialism the psyche is ‘happy’ (eudaemonism). When one world imperialism falters the psyche regroups — like the perennial phoenix it is — at a more local level, but not as anti the one world imperialism — as a new form of palingenesis or rebirth. The individualistic psyche is happy imperialism and the collective psyche is the regrouped ‘we’ form. The nationalists with the tiki torches are easy to spot, the more subtle mindfuck is the seemingly plausible form of the Grossluge or great lie. The great lie is not a person, but a pesonification of the psychic mood of a people, a place, or a nation — especially if it feels hard done by by seeming loss of privilege and encroaching centralised control.… Read more »
The devil’s in the details. Philosophy is all generalizations. And all generalizations are wrong. Exactly how are you going to “end earth degradation”? How and with what and by what means and what are you going to prioritize and what are you going to minimize and how are you going to pay for it all? Just for starters on the details part.
Youse is all guilty, especially youse young persons !
For over 70 years i’ve rarely been asked to produce ID to “prove” i’m me, but this latter decade or so ! So it got me to wondering: the politicians seemed to have had a reasonable amount of trust in us over the decades, but no more. So what is it about the young that’s caused the politicians to become so distrustful that they need to track n trace them 24/7 x 365 ? I dont hear of any talk about the need for “Revolution” among the young. In fact they seem to be terribly compliant. Maybe they’re complying because they’re guilty ? Maybe they’re suspect because they are too compliant ? Whatever it is, the politicians are intent on finding out. Hiding in plain sight, indeed !

…meanwhile, RFK Jr. prefers Jerusalem to Berlin.
Clearly: otherwise he would have at least mentioned the Totalitarian public ‘Blackout’ & Brainwash, in the Western MSM, over the Corporate Fascist Coup of German Energy Policy and the Industrial Economic Sabotage & Terrorism directly related to the destruction of the Nordstream PipelineS. You’d have had to be asleep to believe it & V.D. Leyen… Yet,

Are you in the mood for a nerve-wracking non-fiction book? Then pick up Gerhard Wisnewski’s The Titanic Assassination. Just in time for the 111th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic (April 15, 1912), the renowned investigative author is reissuing this book that revolutionized Titanic research – largely to the exclusion of the public, of course. Bravely ignored by the mainstream, it was soon out of print. By popular demand, Kopp Verlag is lifting this breathtaking non-fiction treasure and reissuing it! After all, the sinking of the Titanic is red-hot: as a symbol of a doomed society, whose members are nevertheless sailing to their doom with their eyes open. It would be interesting to find out whether this was really just a chain of unfortunate circumstances – or whether it was intentional. What was and is there to discover after such a long time? Answer: everything. Because whether it’s Pearl… Read more »

It is the SUN that should feel all the guilt for being variable with its output. The SUN is the true culprit of short term Climate Change! General pollution is another matter altogether. The lack of will by the people to demand the means by which to deal with all the plastic so much enjoyed as convenient packaging is chocking the rivers and oceans and creating mountains of garbage. The lack of will? Is that the problem? Who is responsible for this problem? Netflix? And does anyone really know how responsible corporations are with disposing of their industrial by-products? Are you not voting in the more responsive government? The guilt, the responsibility, transferred to the consumer, to the people, from the corporations is offset by the wealth transferred from the people to the corporations, transferred all the way up to the entities, the likes of BlackRock and Vanguard, hidden in… Read more »
No one owns the world.
But…
Many will try to convince you that they (or their ‘god’) do.
I’m thinking this kind of exhortation, while on here certainly preaching to the choir, will do little to change any of the minds of the true believers. Relative to a god, or whatever it is you’re preaching, good grief man. Faith in a god, of which there is zero proof, is no different from faith in government. It’s still faith in some positive entity that doesn’t fucking exist.
We’re under attack by fellow humans and we have to stop them. Belief in a made-up entity is just as bad as belief in a crooked politician in this war. It ain’t gonna help and all it does is give some a crutch to avoid the real fight. But whatever gets you thru the night, man.

Great article Todd, thanks for that. If it’s of any interest to anyone reading this comment, please don’t feel guilty about your effect on pollution and this planet. I happen to work in the waste industry (my personal role is to convert waste solvents mainly from industry into fuel), but on the site that I work at we have a waste to energy incinerator. I have worked in this industry for over 25 years. I can tell you all, in all honesty what we as individuals produce as waste is minuscule by industrial standards. For starters, all those waste batteries you place in the special bins for recycling, guess what? Incinerated, nothing recovered except heat and energy, same as all those Lithium batteries, can’t recycle them and they’re so lethal they’re even difficult to incinerate safely.

Governments and NGOs are the ones destroying ecological systems on this world. The individual person has nothing to do with what is happening to the planet. We only have a few hundred years of recorded weather data and cannot in anyway accurately extrapolate that over millions of years. It is an accepted fact that there have been fossils found of modern homosapians that carbon date to over 30 million years. Meaning that the theory of evolution is total BS and already disproven. They just refuse to let the general public know this fact. We are dictated a false narrative of history. This is not to suggest it is all lies. It is to suggest it is sprinklings of truth wrapped in lies. Revelation and the Apocalypse isn’t an event, it is a cycle. A cycle that has repeated many times, because we lose our connection to real history. The trajectory… Read more »

True, it is not the ‘Planet’ we need to save; the actions we take must be to save us, ourselves and our friends, children and community, way of life and a proper human diet. The actions the Oligarchy want us to take, is to save them and only them. We must rebuild community and seek self sustenance (buildingbeartaria.com & Beartaria Times), we must rewrite art and literature (Arkhaven Comics), we must refind the medicine (Gut and Physiology Syndrome by Natasha Campbell-McBride, Weston A Price, Aajonus Vonderplanitz). Many are already building it.
There is no Sustainability, Diversity, Inclusivity or Equality, it is all just Oligarchy. Get over it and start to build away from the bullsh*t. It’ll collapse and you will not. Best wishes.
As usual, ongoing geoengineering is left out of the picture. Wake up. GeoengineeringWatch.org.
It’s been horrendous all “ summer” Handley a peep from alt media
Geoengineering would necessarily be left out of any rendering of “illusory guilt” because those attempting to foist guilt upon the rest of us DO NOT admit to its existence. Therefore, they cannot ever use it as a source of their guilt trip.
Just wondering. If global warming is a hoax, why do they need chemtrails?

If you are relying on a god to save humanity then humanity is doomed
If we rely on Christus’s words we are doomed? I miss your suggestion reversed.
I typically do not rely on anything for anything. Considering what humans have done with God’s “material experiment” I wouldn’t expect him (or whatever pronoun you are comfortable with) to save humanity. I suppose if I rely on anything from God, I rely on Him sticking to his fundamental axiom of love expressed on this material realm. In this regard, love includes death, decay, rebirth, creativity, and yes, even suffering. But, the foundation being love, humans should essentially suffer to the extent animals do (certainly not animals under human control, but as animals would if no humans existed…i.e., “suffering with dignity”) I think we, as a species who are special in God’s eyes, have failed God, or at least the task God has set before us. Therefore I would not expect much from him other than to save my eternal soul…but that’s another story. As for this article…I do not… Read more »
A nicely written piece Todd, as usual. Forgive me but I think your position would gain strength by leaving “God” [sic] out of the picture. If nothing else it would make the matter less complicated, more, ahem, economical (in the sense of saving unnecessary effort).
Thanks.
Christ is “a God”. God is not “a God” but only God without a. “A God” can thus only be Christ (or another out of many more ordinary Gods). We repeat David: “If you rely on a God to save humanity, then humanity is doomed”. But Christ saved humanity in the context Todd describe. God regretted his creation, erased nearly all of it under Noah’s Arch, but then he decided to not give up on humanity and gave us his promise in form of a rainbow. So by Christ a God, humanity is already saved! We just have to try hard to live as God describe in the Commandments or live as Todd write in more popular terms. If David is correct, it means humanity is doomed if we rely on this basic understanding. All right, then I am just asking when and how is humanity then saved if we… Read more »

The astute Charles Fort was interviewed by a reporter toward the end of his life spent collecting from reputable newspapers bizarre anomalous events from around the globe. The reporter finished the interview by asking Fort whether he has come to any conclusions regarding his work of many decades. Fort replied very succinctly with the simple statement, “I think we are being farmed.”
You have to rely on the guy driving the truck not to run you down. You have to rely on your neighbor not to shoot you. You have to rely on your electricity and your refrigerator and the local nuclear power plant guy not to fall asleep on the job. You have to rely on your boss to pay you, or your clients to pay you. I hate it when people say they don’t need nothin from nobody. You do too.
Exactly.
FREE WILL.
We can only save ourselves and God isn’t anyone’s baby sitter.
God wants you to help yourself; it is written and spoken since ancient times; not rely on him to save you or let the rulers of this world demoralise you into helpless despair!
God helps those who help themselves.
That’s what the oligarchs are doing…
What has humanity ever done to indicate that it could save itself? If you’re relying on humanity to save humanity then humanity is doomed.
Doomed
Humanity is doomed. It’s just the way things are. Evolution would eventually create a species that could defeat any predator and which could alter the environment to what it thought was to it’s own advantage. The emergence of that species was of course the beginning of the end. Take radiation. Life emerged on this planet because it was a radiation and meteorite free oasis in a radioactive universe. Mankind, the end product of evolution is busy making the planet radioactive. With nuclear power plants, with nuclear weapons, with mobile phone networks and so on.
Good read as ever Todd thank you. And a, rare these days, piece without grammar or spelling errors – it shows your..maturity.
Guilt is easy to collect but difficult to let go. For any normal human that is, but the evil perpetrators of all this, they cannot possess guilt about their actions surely or it would destroy them at the scale of it – I mean at BillyG and world leader level and above. How then can they be so sanguine seemingly? It makes me wonder if they are possessed or actually of another planet.
Thank you! And it shows I have the maturity to have a good proofreader! She does an amazing job!
No, the perpetrators are of course guilt free. And even the guilt that they encourage us to possess is not empathic concern, it is a selfish guilt. Guilt of any sort is not psychically healthy…it is based on a “i want to feel better” foundation. Concern for being a better person more aligned with goals in character and values is not driven by “guilt’…that sort of concern is healthy…again, in my humble opinion.
Hey Todd
Send your proof reader my way. They are an essential part of the process, and like us, fairly rare.
They don’t have a soul – it’s that simple.
I read an article just yesterday that now – if the article was not “disinformation” – now BillyG wants to bury thousands of trees in order to help “save” the planet. Proof positive that madness does not cure itself.
Here’s something we can all take to the bank: human beings are fundamentally incapable of guilt. The few – very few – practicing ascetics being the exception that proves the rule.
The closest thing to guilt most people ever come is cuffing themselves around a bit for letting someone else “take advantage” of them. In other words, for not being ruthless enough to come out on top.
Thank goodness the planet will still be alive and well long after humans have wiped themselves off its face (which may not be that far off).
The worst you can say of humans is that they simply do what comes naturally. That’s not saying much, but it’s not really their fault: it’s what they’re programmed to do.
Come on, Howard… Humans evolved together with the earth – they are part of it. If humans ever do manage to wipe themselves off its face (and I agree that this may not be far off), then who will be left to say, “Thank goodness!”, or to enjoy the new reality? Our very consciousness of our earthly existence is an integral part of that existence, so if we suddenly cease to exist, the continuing existence of the earth won’t be of any importance to anybody. Nobody will be “thanking goodness”, nobody will be missing ‘the good old days’, and not even our favourite aliens will be interested in coming here. We mustn’t become nihilists. That’s what “You-Know-Who” would like. We must fight tooth-and-nail to defend what we consider to be good and worthwhile. Who knows, if, even as individuals, we cooperate with the earth instead of mercilessly exploiting it, we… Read more »
Humanity has simply gone too far afield from our earthly evolution.
7.83 HZ – the Schumann Resonance – is approximately the resonance/frequency humans evolved with. Now, thanks to our technology, the Earth is bathed in a frequency literally thousands of times stronger than that. How long do you think we can survive with something so entirely alien to our own natures?
And that’s only one of perhaps hundreds of natural rhythms humanity has skewed in order to make for ourselves a “better life.” Just to name two such rhythms: light/dark and noise. Much of humanity grew up “sleeping” in lighted rooms filled with the screech of TVs and what-not.
This simply cannot end well. If humans survive their self-onslaught, I for one shudder to think what they will be like. Morlocks anyone?
Good questions.
My take is that we should simply care enough to use all our positive talents to the full and not to think only of our material well-being.
Getting involved in some of our talents – the creative, artistic, poetic and spiritual ones – is an actual choice, and such choices can confront us with the wisdom that, “Man does not live from bread alone”.
In fact the thought occurs to me that even when we die, we are still Men – just so long as that is how we see ourselves, of course.
Exactly.
The trouble for/with humans is the conflict between doing what comes naturally, and rising above that.

The annihilation of the buffalo almost to extinction was a stated act of war and the ” US military ” never looked back, and they have continued to destroy the lives of millions …
I made a remark at work last week that if we really wanted to “go green” the first thing we would do is end the wars. The co worker I said that to had to ask 3 times “end what” before she understood. Deer in headlights stare. And this isn’t a libtard either. People don’t see it and they aren’t meant to. Since war only effects those who fight it, no one even thinks about it. Biggest single source emitter on the planet, but banning plastic or incandescent light bulbs and endless other restrictions are more important than ending endless wasteful destructive murderous wars. For fucks sake.
Pleased you got away with making such a comment. Society is doomed – a good shake up is inevitable now. Once thats over we can all be move towards our own reset, based on decentralisation.
But, boy, will people find it uncomfortable to decentralize – they have got so used to having everything done for them…
The green means dollares. The green dollar. Go green, the green wave.
Its not nature as people think, but dollares. The dollar is green. Symbolic.
Our society and language are filled up with references to religion: Churches in every little town. Worships on television.
Half of all rock music is about demons, wizards, hell, satan, graves, god, the saviour, death.
Our language: “For God’s sake, “To hell with it”, “For Satan, it hurt”.
When they hear green wave they think “doing something for our nature”.
When people hear other talk about God or religion, they will deny it exist, “I dont believe in this shit”.
Thats why they say people are asleep. See nothing hear nothing.
To eliminate wars, you have to eliminate war-mongers, and then keep at it as and when more of them crop up.
Let’s start another war to inspire peace… Mankind’s investment strategies are a bit warped, but it sells a lot of gas…
Don’t tell Greta! Poor kid …
Guilt, and the insidiously implanted fear of death, hell, god and damnation were very profitable for all of the old religions.
Insatiable Corporatism, and its incestuous handmaidens, science and technology, are the new religions.
Not to mention the media, which are also insatiable when it comes to sensational emptiness.
