Dissidents Must Understand The Difference Between Fact And Narrative
Dissidents Must Understand The Difference Between Fact And Narrative A politician can run a flawless campaign, say all the right things from a place of authenticity, hold wildly popular positions and an impeccable public record, but if they say things which upset the powerful, the narrative can be reshaped to paint them as crazy, incompetent, […]
The Decline and Fall of the European Union
The Decline and Fall of the European Union This exhaustion of the neocolonial-neofeudal model was inevitable, and as a result, so too is the decline and fall of the European integration/exploitation project. That a single currency, the euro, would fracture rather than unite Europe was understood long before the euro’s introduction as legal tender on […]
Money: How Its Past Predicts Its Future
Money: How Its Past Predicts Its Future What is money, where does it come from and more importantly where does it go?

For Hollywood, ‘Vice’ Remarkably Astute about Politics
For Hollywood, ‘Vice’ Remarkably Astute about Politics Adam McKay’s movie may be flawed, but it’s still must-see for his depiction of how Cheney amassed power by exploiting Watergate, an inexperienced president and 9/11, writes James DiEugenio. In 2015, director Adam McKay did something unusual in Hollywood. He made a good film out of a good […]
Slip of the Imperial Mask
Slip of the Imperial Mask O’Reilly then said about Putin: “But he’s a killer, though. Putin’s a killer.” Trump responded: “There are a lot of killers. We’ve got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country’s so innocent?”–Feb 4, 2017 I remember the day well. It was the day when the leader “of […]
Globalist Disinformation Spotlight On – Mohamed El-Erian
Globalist Disinformation Spotlight On – Mohamed El-Erian In this new series of “Spotlight” articles which I will be publishing intermittently I plan to highlight specific individuals who work within globalist institutions or who often express pro-globalist sentiments.

Is the Historical Subject Returning, Wearing a Yellow Vest?
Is the Historical Subject Returning, Wearing a Yellow Vest? If someone were to ask me the meaning of politics, I would say that it is concerned with the contestation of power; that it is agonistic, even antagonistic. And that it has to be, because what it contests is the balance of power wielded by different […]

The Essence of Control Is Its Concealment
The Essence of Control Is Its Concealment For thousands of years “control” of humans, both at the micro individual and macro collective level, was obvious and institutionalized. It was the way the world worked, with pharaohs, chiefs, kings and queens, along with their sycophant and supporting courts, wielding power and control at the top. Arrayed […]

Neofeudalism Isn’t a Flaw of the System–It’s the System Working Perfectly
Neofeudalism Isn’t a Flaw of the System–It’s the System Working Perfectly Fakery is always precarious: the truth about the asymmetries of power might slip out and spread like wildfire. I’ve been writing about neofeudalism and its cousin neocolonialism for seven years: 500 Million Debt-Serfs: The European Union Is a Neo-Feudal Kleptocracy (July 22, 2011) The […]
Can the ‘Yellow Vests’ Protests Go Global?
Can the ‘Yellow Vests’ Protests Go Global? When it comes to the relationship of U.S. citizens to the politicians and bureaucrats in Washington D.C., there’s no indication that anything remotely resembling self-government is happening. Rather, the relationship is far more like that of a servant to a master. From the October post: Americans are Stuck in […]

Manufacturing Truth
Manufacturing Truth If you’re one of the millions of human beings who, despite a preponderance of evidence to the contrary, still believe there is such a thing as “the truth,” you might not want to read this essay.
