Some things in Politics Don’t Make Sense Except in the Light of Depopulation
What is the Survivors Guide to Earth?

One cannot begin to comprehend the motives of the Uber-Bankers by what their tools, our misleaders, say and do, but the effects of their actions likely betray the true plan.
We are meant to despise Trump for the brutality of ICE, nabbing the Venezuelan president, diverting energy to AI data centers, bombing a girls’ school in Iran, starving Cubans, and shredding the US Constitution.
We are meant to finally reject the two-party system and recoil at the entire Epstein Class. We are meant to be so horrified by what the IDF did to Gazans that we deny Israel’s “right” to exist as a Zionist government. I suspect we are even meant to want Iran to take One Vengeance for All upon the evil US empire that has turned on its own citizens.
Every war starts with a massive propaganda campaign that defines an evil enemy. This time the enemy is national sovereignty. Truth is being weaponized against us. We will be offered a new form of global government—promoting “unity” and “human values”—whose economy is not based on the war industry but on a peace industry.
A peace industry, that should terrify you.
Limited Nuclear War
It does not matter whether or not oligarchs really are fighting each other for power or if it’s all a World Wrestling Forum-style performance. It doesn’t matter if the Orange Megalomaniac really thinks he will be CEO of Trumplandia built on the ruins of Gaza or if he just wants to get rid of his pushy Zionist patrons by goading Iran into wiping Israel off the map.
I try not to get distracted by the day-to-day crises (Why did they do that? Are they stupid?) because we know where this is ultimately headed (if we don’t stop it). They’ve been telling us for decades. The New World Order is destroying the Gulf states oil industry and getting the US Empire out, in order to focus on forming the North American Technate, which Orwell refers to as Oceania in his novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. (The UK is destined to be its airstrip.)
Orwell based his dystopia on what James Burnham, forerunner of the Kissinger/Brzezinski crowd, wrote at the time. The Managerial Revolution: What is Happening in the World, published in 1941, argues that technical experts would eventually displace the traditional capitalist class and assume control of the economy through centralized economic planning. Enter Palantir, Oracle and other AI surveillance companies.
Just prior to the opening of Orwell’s narrative, the world had gone through a limited nuclear war. IRL, Iran will be nuked, according to this line of reasoning, then there will be retaliations.
Over 8 billion barbarians are at the gate, rattling the bars. Demoralization and further depopulation must be the next step if the New Order is to succeed.
What is the Survivors Guide to Earth?
Survivors Guide to Earth, fronted by Mathew Cooke, is an apparently well-funded campaign, which has suddenly popped up on everyone’s social media feeds decrying Trump, Israel and nation states generally. Cooke has gulped down the bait and is promoting a new New Deal, a cryptic variant of the New World Order, the Great Reset, and Build Back Better.
Perhaps he means well, but he is misguided. Here are some of the main ideological points of the program:
- We don’t need national borders. Instead everyone should live according to “universal” human values.
- Metaphorically, we all share the Earth’s labor pool in the same way we share Earth’s water supply.
- We deserve a government that cares about the economic rights of everyone.
Cooke supported Bernie Sanders’ campaign in 2016 and still seems to be in the ideological camp that believes in a big strong impossibly benign government. In his new videos, Cooke is a full-blown conspiracy theorist, which is permitted now since the partial release of the Epstein files. But he does not identify the concentration of power as the problem. Instead, he argues the opposite that different national ideologies and borders are the problem.
The impotent tools that the Survivors Guide to Earth offers are unionizing, divestment, boycott, and protest. Consider the title, the survivors’ guide; this is a guide to a future wherein a number of people have not survived because they thought they could vote their way out of this mess. Cooke is handsome and hip, an engaging speaker for the disaffected masses. But he is not the right guide.
I’m not sure we need guides at this point. It’s obvious what we need to do: plant a garden, or learn to make ethanol and biodiesel, or learn how to repair machines and electronics, or learn some other practical skill. In other words, try to survive without government.
We’re lucky; the technocrats are not quite ready to roll out their new system. The data centers are not complete, and so far, they have failed in their PR efforts to make the public want AI governance. But we won’t be able to resist technocracy unless people recognize that alternatives exist to the kinds of systems that got us here.
Voluntarism, Anarchism and Self-Organization
Socialism, capitalism, feudalism, representative democracy, and communism all end up creating centers of power that exploit the people. Voluntarist systems, which recognize the greatest degree of individual freedom, may start out chaotic but don’t remain so for long; they rapidly self-organize to create a means of exchange (currency), public infrastructure, rules for using the common finite natural resources, and the maintenance of borders.
As soon as such systems try to tackle more—education, social welfare, etc.,—they unnecessarily create levers of power that can be seized by psychopaths at some point. No matter who has been in government, our health agencies have been hellbent on making us as unhealthy as possible. Our defense agencies drive us to war and make us unsafe. Our educational systems brainwash. It’s all too Orwellian. On the bright side, it’s a lot easier to give up government assistance when it is so clearly out to kill us.
Yes, we should all value cultural programs, education, research, product safety testing, charity for the poor. But it is our job as individuals to support such programs free from government coercion and control. Think of all the time and money that is wasted trying to put the Best Leader in office when that could go directly to local welfare and cultural programs of our choice instead.
Are Borders Racist?
There will never be a global utopia constrained by universal values; corporations will compete for finite natural resources and those who kill and maim the most will win. The best we can do is decentralize power, which is not possible without separate nation states and somewhat self-contained economies.
National borders are functionally equivalent to the semi-permeable membrane of a living cell. Membranes make healthy and intelligent life possible.
Although progressives like Cooke think that it is “nationalism” that pits citizens against newcomers, the truth is that migrant workers have always served the interests of concentrated powers, large corporations and the wealthy, who want low-wage workers. Land ownership needs to be limited to citizens and land needs to be as accessible to as many citizens as possible. No hoarding.
Following Benjamin Franklin’s lead, Tereza Corragio argues in How to Dismantle an Empire that local community banks should hold mortgages on the land in the community so that the interest paid stays in the community. It’s simple pragmatic ideas like this that will save us from technocracy, not “universal” values.
Although Cooke argues, I think rightly, that the natural resources and public infrastructure belong to the people of the land, I suspect that the Uber-Banker’s plan is to pervert such ideas by “tokenizing” public infrastructure, land and other natural resources. And, via various stablecoins that are “tethered” to the national debt, the citizens will receive meager rations. The data center that manages the tokens will take a cut.
This is the new “stakeholder capitalism.” But that’s not ownership; that’s not even as good as a membership a Sam’s Club. It’s a digital prison.
Natural resources, such as minerals, oil, and precious metals, should be extracted, processed, and sold to citizens by non-profit cooperatives, over which citizens have voting rights and an interest in protecting their ecosystems. It is the for-profit corporate monopolization of natural resources and public infrastructure that leads to fascism. It’s not factories or other kinds of corporations. That’s the lesson behind the Georgist inspired board game Monopoly. Private entities do not have a right to extract the finite resources that they did not create. Libertarians who deny this end up recreating the conditions that lead to wars for oil and land.
Contrary to what Cooke argues, we need to undo the social programs (those levers of power) that were invented to treat the symptoms of the problem of corporate monopolies on natural resources and public infrastructure.
Invert the Pyramid of Power
In this view, in the US, the federal government would function merely as the Treasury and the Building and Grounds Department of the fifty states, supplying the Greenbacks to build and maintain all transportation, communication and energy supply infrastructure, ports and public buildings (courts, schools, hospitals) but making no decisions about how to run those systems, which should be run by local village/town cooperatives.
The oligarchs are taking down the system that brought them to power. They will have a narrow window of time in which to erect the new stakeholder capitalism and digital prisons. That time of chaos will also be our opportunity to build the world we want locally.
Meanwhile…
Good news: I have a new novel coming out.
I have not been producing my usual supply of anti-transhuman/technocracy essays lately because I’ve been preparing for the release of my social satire novel The Girlie Playhouse on April 7th from Heresy Press. Although it’s tempting to be distracted by the war porn, I remind myself what I’m fighting for, the kind of life I want to live when technocracy has failed, when I will have the luxury of tending to my garden and enjoying the arts and sciences.
I wrote this novel over thirty years ago, making fun of various waves of feminism in the 1990s. It’s finally okay to criticize that nonsense. It’s a funny book and humor is cathartic.
So please consider supporting my work by ordering a copy. Feed the Amazon beast or other big bookstore. Or support Oblong, the little bookshop in my village which is hosting a signing soon.

Oh, I don’t like the concept of “charity”. It is demeaning and keeps people dependent. What we need is a just world where every adult has the opportunity to live and thrive. How to achieve this without handouts is the question. I do not believe in the notion that human beings just want to do nothing with their lives.
My ambition was never to work but i had to get a job to support my ambition.
No one can amass a fortune with their own two hands.
Exploiting the labour of others or becoming a landlord or speculator are how ambitious Folks grow Rich.
Dunno, unlike the mega wealthy and most multi national corporations in aUStralia I paid my taxes for forty five years, including Howard’s (“There will never be”) GST.
I’ll continue to accept my pension ‘handout’ until I shuffle off this mortal coil.
I think I might know how it all ends, Starmer goes and Trump glances at his itinerary and sees Rainy Angela, immediately thinks of Stormy Daniels and goes in hard, she knees him in the spuds, and follows with an uppercut, cue Vera Lynn singing We’ll meet again.
It’s kind of appropriate for this baboon world, after all AI says we are between 35 and 45 in the top 100 brain size. Sperm whales have 7x our brain by weight.

The Window of Opportunity Approaches !
All the oil cargoes in transit at the start of the Sneak Attack on Iran have

‘Even if hostilities were to end this weekend it would take weeks to months
till the first deliveries would start to arrive into ports In Asia, Afrika, Europe

Behind the scenes, out of the glare of headlines, governments are preparing.
Only a foolish government would let this Window of Opportunity pass
without exploiting it to tighten its grip, to put into place more of The Plan’s

If only there were depopulation. Sadly, it’s the opposite – too many people.

I thought some kind of insight was being offered judging by the title but unsurprisingly it’s just another online pundit. And someone punting their book.
Let these celebrities go, there is nothing to be gained listening to social or mainstream media.
Live for love not anything material.
Do the next right thing for people, forgive and move on.
Don’t trust your feelings, they pass.
Have gratitude for what you have – if you’re reading this then you have enough to get by.
Grow humility.
With these we can live well without all the trash thrown at us to deviate from a satisfying life.
Just mho.
Trump Signs Executive Order On Psychedelic Drugs With Joe Rogan As Iran Shuts Hormuz
Well, that is also a vision.
But if I were to be very clear, yet absolutely strict, I would rather opt for the solution of a (moral, nothing more is needed?) court that punishes every immoral act severely, always keeping in mind: “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
So, worldwide, there must be a reporting point that punishes *every* immoral act that cannot be resolved between two people. So, for example, anyone who charges interest is guilty. Anyone who cannot keep their hands off the neighbour is guilty. Anyone who lends at interest is guilty. Anyone who pays their help less than agreed is guilty. Anyone who makes underhanded agreements is guilty, and so on.
Every immoral act must be punished. Anyone who does not respect another is already guilty. Anyone who does something that disturbs even one person on earth is guilty. No noise pollution, no poison, no bad food, no oppression, no weapons (the very idea!), in short, do nothing that even one global citizen could disapprove of.
That is easy to arrange via computers. One complaint and the offender stops until an investigation has taken place. Every law should be approved by 100 percent of everyone; one against, the law does not pass. That is how it should work, it seems to me. People are sometimes too unreliable to act otherwise than strictly but fairly.
That’s my form of globalisme; a global moral system, absolutely and easy. That’s for a little beginning tot stop bad immoral people, even those who can’t understand.
Btw, Blair was 11 when he wrote this?
Sound good, just, if we would all just adhere to and if those courts of law were to apply Natural Law. However, I can see conflict arising from your sentence: “… do nothing that even one global citizen could disapprove of.”
What about those who consider themselves to be the arbiters of morality – such as what kind of clothing is ‘moral’ for someone else to wear? Or: Whether or not anyone has the right to impose so-called medicines on another?
I believe that ideology, especially religion, is an impediment to a) true alignment with the divine and b) to living in accordance with the standards of Natural Law.
What about those of us who are to old to survive without government.
Lovely as revolution sounds, in our own personal interest, we’re against it.
Unless we have a big, young, capable and adaptable family that loves us all to the dickens.
Oligarchy-manufactured talking points tells us THE aliens ( outsiders ) coming to invade/infect us and invisible viruses or commies (monsters under the bed)
the same screamer of border control which is oligarchy-manufactured talking points tells us that 15-minute cities are a bad thing.
15-minute cities mean going into other zones, districts, and ”invading” them like migrants virus’s aliens then?
but migrants and borders are a bad thing for outsiders.
Bipolar logic washed down with believing in the FAKE nuke threat that appeals to the Daily Mail / GB news readers’ logic.
The fake Alien invasion plan could be implemented as them saving the world from Nuke Armageddon, the digi Tec is ready, the back story of nukes being disabled by UFO’s has already been sown.
Several Aerospace companies announced they were on the verge of anti gravity tec back in the 50’s as detailed in ‘the hunt for zero point’.
do people still believe in the existence of nukes? surely not.
When underground testings are done, the explosions register as earthquakes on the Richter scale. OK, don’t call them nukes, call them Earthquake bombs if it pleases you :-))
AI surprisingly quickly threw in the towel on defending the big bang bollocks, once the zero point field was admitted, then the analogy of throwing a pebble into a pond refuted all its defense of this Jesuitical scientific heresy.
The fact that this is an electric universe, is obscured by this long discredited theory. Once it is gone, the release of the miriad of free energy technologies will be the death blow to degenocrats.
We are forgetting one major thing – human nature, it won’t matter what system is eventually put in place – human nature will find a way to corrupt it, or beat it, or get around it in the long run.
One hopes you are wrong about that. I used agree. I tend now to think that there is a “human nature” – than most people fall within – and then there is a – “psychopathic” human nature. I’m much more concerned with the latter than the former. And it is clear that in ANY SORT of hierarchy psychopathic human nature rises to the top like pond scum.
They lack any kind of morality – and that’s a prerequisite if you want to climb the PTB’s greasy pole of advancement – sadly there’s plenty of folk out their willing to give it a go.
Isnt the “followers” more interesting? Why do people corrupt or prostitute themselves to (those who have) money. Milgram test a.s.o.?

The Toxic/Pernicious effects of corruption in human nature would be limited to very small groups if not for secretive organisations like the Police and associated outfits, informants, spies, those who spread rumours, and CIA and the likes.
I can assure you they’ll be secretive and morally corrupt sects and groups in the future, it human nature for some to want to have control – the next generation of the controllers are in the making you can find some at WEF’s Young Leaders.

Some are already in place, being picked decades ago – it a conveyer belts of obedient psychos, who follow orders.

So, I guess that AI government will be a good thing? After all, humans are simply beyond rehabilitation, so we need a machine to govern for us. We obviously now need it to think for us, as most have outsourced that function to God only knows how many automated “tools” that at the end just dumb down humanity a bit more every time they are used. So why not, let’s just turn it all over to the machines, we won’t need to work anymore, won’t need to leave the house anymore, and I’m sure they’ll feed us more than enough for mere survival. The wars will end. Psychopaths will not be in charge of the algorithms once the machine is up and running, so no more problems with greedy fucks gaining control. It’ll be great.
I just found out today there’s a data center that may go in about 10 miles or so from me. There is a meeting at City Hall on Monday to find out more, and I’m sure the real truth of just what this thing will be, it’s utility use and water use, will be totally transparent, and they’ll take all citizens complaints and concerns very, very seriously. It is going onto a 250 acre lot, but I’m sure that won’t create any problems. That city is already warning us against any unfounded “speculation,” and so we must wait for the facts from those in charge. We all know how bad it is to do any of your own research, we mustn’t do that. We will see what they say, God help me keep my mouth shut and not say anything resembling that pesky CT, wouldn’t want to get myself labeled as one of those loons.
AI can be a useful tool to humanity in the right hands, unfortunately it can also be used against us not just to control us but to kill us, it all depends whose hands AI is in, and right now much of it is in the hands of the latter, warmongering control freaks who see AI as another wrung on their ladder of control and destruction.
Would we be better of with a AI government, well again its humans that programme it – so the human element comes into it again, so no would be my answer. Whatever the human hand falls on – there’s a chance of corruption and immorality.
Lizzyh7, you must question everything, not only is it in our nature to do so – it helps awaken society knowing what they are doing with regards to that site, they’ll probably palm folk of with a BS explanation of what it does – at least you are aware of this – which more than some folk are.
A Datacenter is a hot energy consuming bomb in the middle of a society.
It is spreading its heat +3C in 5-10km radius, and use energy and fresh water so people within 100km radius will have to pay 4-5 times for the same.
It produces no real jobs other than for lay-off companies and social problems. The IT jobs on the Centres are deadly boring.
Some people say it can be a useful tool for humanity but not how. They never mention how it is or can be useful. The reality is they are for military use only!
I believe in the basic goodness of human beings if only we grew up in a system free from micromanagement and artificial scarcity. These two factors are what keep us haggling over the thin slice of what our (not-quite-human?) controllers offer us from the material riches of our universe.
Depopulation? But they care a lot….

After some badgering AI admitted that our privately owned Fiat currency costs us a minimum of 210 billion annually, add the payoff by G Brown to the fiscal protection racket run by the COLC in 2008, and it amounts to 6.05 trillion this century.
That’s without scams like PFI, The theft of North sea oil, and the Cabal’s creation of money to buy itself Assets and property that massively diminished the wages and savings of the 99%.
End debt slavery, Nationalise the money supply and vote for policy not party, cancel the national debt, and seize all assets and property bought privately with QE money Now!!!
