Building bridges when the cause has been hijacked

I remember something my late friend Michael C. Ruppert told us one night in our weekly CollapseNet conference call regarding Alex Jones. "Alex Jones is a liar and a trojan horse and anyone who lays their bed next to his will regret it". This was in regards to a conversation that had been sparked by a new employee that had seen a few of his documentaries and had mentioned something along the lines that in his own way Alex Jones was helping.

Mike was adamant however that Alex Jones would only destroy the truth, not help it. This was in a time long before the Trump / Jones media alliance when Jones was lesser known, the Obama being from Kenya thing hadn't even happened yet, Alex Jones was still producing convincing documentaries about the New World Order.

Mike would often call Jones a liar on air on his show the Lifeboat Hour and dare him to sue him for it. He just wanted the opportunity to expose him in court.

Alex Jones for his part ignored Mike. If you've ever had the chance to listen to Alex Jones during his call in segments (or really any segment) you know he is quite animated and typically goes on the attack instantly. One of Mike's listeners called in to Jones' show one day, asks what he thinks of Mike Ruppert's ideas, Jones cuts him off and responds "Ya I know Mike", and went to the next caller.

So why am I telling you this story now? Because it's the beginning of understanding what's truly needed to bridge the political divide in Canada.

Mike was right, again, the guy was always fucking right. Alex Jones did destroy truth, everything Alex Jones has ever talked about, true or not, is now tarnished with the same brush and at the same time those who haven't had the guts to see thru it yet are being lead further and further away where the cause they're fighting is owned and marketed by the enemies they claim to be against.

If you've been following the Kelly Jones saga with her ex husband you know they've been having legal battles. I read something the other week I found quite interesting.
For Kelly Jones, the support for Trump was a betrayal of the libertarian, free-thinking site she believed InfoWars and Prison Planet had been at the outset.
“They have been reduced to the mouthpiece of the person who is going to go down as the most terrible president and the most destructive force this country’s ever seen—and for what? Because Donald Trump calls Alex on the phone and pats his head?” she said. 
“One of the reasons that I speak out is that I am appalled and actually terrified by the power of my ex-husband and PJW influencing the election and influencing the nation’s politics. 
“I would never believe they could support Donald Trump. He’s a despot. InfoWars was always anti-tyranny, pro-constitution.” 
Within the space of a year, Watson had gone from suggesting Trump was secretly working for the Democrats to becoming a favorite agitator in the Twittersphere of Donald Trump Jr. and his fringe media acolytes. 
Watson’s hoax video alleging that Hillary Clinton may be a drug-addict suffering from an array of serious ailments ranging from syphilis to a brain tumor kickstarted a mainstream news cycle that reached tens if not hundreds of millions of voters.
Let's not forget that Watson was originally right about Trump and the pied piper strategy, before flip flopping, this should be well known fact by now. But it's not, it's knowledge that has been lost in a new vicious Left vs Right where the truth has been covered in a massive array of conflicting narratives and sources.

We are left with the age of Trumpism, and have an even more contorted version of it here in Canada that is geared to suiting our particular political climate with energy production being at the forefront of our version with the globalists supposedly enacting an elaborate plan via networks of NGOs, carbon taxes, etc. to stop Canada from developing it's resources. Instead of InfoWars, we have Rebel Media, which if you didn't know Ezra Levant was on InfoWars recently.
"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false" -CIA Director William Casey, 1981
I stopped writing this blog because the truth became pointless. Real discussion around the globe is basically dead, critical thinking is dead, rock is dead, and nowhere have I felt this as much as I have in my home of Alberta. The destruction of the truth turning into a war of narratives doesn't just affect those who end up sucked into the void of misinformation, it affects the very ability to bridge the gap between the warring sides.

The warring sides in Alberta are having two very different discussions, discussions that can never meet and find common ground. This war between the people is a deliberate and perfect way to halt any real opposition to the government actions that are serving the interests of no one except the banking elites. A bridge will never be able to built between the sides if either side is outright dismissed.

So the true irony for me is that I've started this blog again, for the same reason I stopped it, because the truth doesn't matter anymore. I've observed first hand the discussion in Alberta devolve and the aggressive war tones build. I've watched as the topics and causes I've written about are hijacked and used by the very system I and so many others have been fighting.

It will be impossible to fight Kenney's messaging without acknowledging the tarnished truths, because the fundamental core of Kenney's fabricated war is built on the ashes of those tarnished truths. Those truths are still out there, being weaponized thru neglect and padded with a web of lies.

R.I.P. Michael C. Ruppert, you always had it right, right from the start.

  1. .. for obvious reasons, I include Alex Jones, Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, Sean Hannity & Tucker Carson among the most diseased Americans on the planet..

    Examining Canada I find the likes of Stephen Harper, Jason Kenney, Joe Oliver, the late saint Jim Flaherty, Ezra Levant, Hamish Marshall, Pierre Poilievre, Arthur Hamilton, Paul Godfrey, Jenni Byrne to be cut from similar cloth

    As one descends through such ranks.. we see Mainstream Media and evangelistic political parasites like Matt Wolf, Peter Kent, Tony Clement, John Baird, Brad Trost, Ken Boessenkool, Michelle Rempel-Garner, Lisa Raiit all thriving along with clingon enablers like Andrew Scheer, Christie Clark, Doug Ford or Maxime Bernier

    Such disgusting posturers and corrupted political parties need to be bulldozed aside before Canada can clean up the rubble and rebuild our governance and electoral processes..
