How un-patriotic of them! Sadly, you don't have to be an ex- or current NSA employee to see it. All it takes is a reasonable person to pay attention (I know, this is the problem) to the web of disinfo and it is obviously a shit show. As far as I can tell, here is where we are:

The Western political regime has been failing for a long time, and has maintained a constant "crisis-mode" in order to keep the facade up and the dissent down.

The financial fraud has long since engulfed the entire economic system of the west, to where now virtually every market is dominated by these fraudsters.

To placate the inattentive masses, the narratives (political, social and economic) must become more and more bizzare in order to maintain the look of "sanity."

The corporate press are so desperate to maintain the failed narratives and faux polarities that little or no truth is revealed by the former 4th estate.

Because of the ongoing narrative, people die every day - through murder, hardship and suicide - so that a few can benefit from this failed society.

The most powerful and technologically advanced military in the world is still serving this failed regime.



If you try to find reason or good social conscience in any of it, it will do nothing but make you mentally ill, because all it is there to do is to hide the truth and to cover the tracks of traitor elites that will destroy everyone rather than relinquish power. All of these tools and centralized powers will soon be turned upon Americans in true and all-out snake-eats-tail fashion.



Since I have let go of the otherwise meaningless narratives peddled on MSM and by gov talking heads, I really do see where much of it all fits together. What I'm saying is, there is much less cognitive dissonance when you realize that your society actually is caving in on itself. The best thing I can suggest if and when you come to these conclusions is to set long-term constructive goals that assume the above is true. Don't panic. Make goals. Here are some I came up with:

-become as self-reliant as possible, and as little reliant upon the gov as possible.

-without evangelizing it, always be prepared to help your loved ones understand it.

-have an emergency action plan (or plans) to cover a variety of contingencies.

-teach yourself as many skills and trades that would be important in a post-financial collapse world.

-network with your neighbors (face-to-face, not on FB, ffs).

-stay in shape.

-don't wallow in the sadness of a society that is destroying itself, or you will reflect it in one way or another (substance abuse, depression, etc).
