"You're gonna pledge blind allegiance, and call yourself 'American' for a government that fucks you on a regular basis?!"

― Doug Stanhope *

What if you suddenly contracted Gulf War Syndrome?

"How could I?" you ask. "I'm not in the military, and have never been to Afghanistan, nor Iraq."

How about if you found yourself in the hospital, in need of a blood transfusion? What if that transfusion came from a soldier who has Gulf War Syndrome?

Obviously, the answers here are: "Well, then you'd suddenly have Gulf War Syndrome, as well, and would have no recourse but to suffer with it."

"Where did Gulf War Syndrome come from, and what is it?" you inquire.

Gulf War Syndrome is an amalgamation of diseases knowingly caused by the United States government.

You can attempt to debate this, but when the U.S. uses depleted uranium (DU), lethal vaccines, and biological, as well as chemical weapons on its own soldiers, the polemic ends. There's such a mountain range of evidence ― firsthand testimony, official documentation, photographic, and video ― damning the government, to deny such would be lunacy.

"Depleted uranium? What's that?"

Depleted uranium is one of the most deadly substances known to humans. Depending upon exposure levels, it can kill within days, or over a period of years.

Depleted uranium ― comprised of uranium-238, uranium-235 and uranium-234 ― will be around longer than Earth has been in existence. This planet we call home has been tactile roughly 4.5 billion years. Uranium-238 has a half-life of 4.5 billion years. Hence, if you had a pound of U-238 today, in 4.5 billion years, you'd still have half a pound of it.

Depleted uranium causes a host of horrific diseases ― including an array of cancers ― as well as the most severe birth defects. We're talkin' babies born with no heads; infants birthed without limbs, nor eyes; some with single eyes in the middle of their foreheads ― living cyclopes. Newborns delivered with organs outside their bodies; covered in immense tumors; and some that are simply formless fusions of putrefied blood and flesh, unrecognizable as Homo sapiens.

And these genetic birth defects aren't confined to the Middle East. Chock full of depleted uranium, U.S. soldiers are coming home and fucking their wives, who are giving birth to severely deformed children. **

All this was brought to you by what you refer to as "your" government. So, the next time see a military enlistment propaganda commercial, destroy your television, and never look at another one. When you watch some ignorant imbecile preparing to join the armed forces, show him or her the movies Beyond Treason or Gulf War Syndrome: Killing Our Own. Break out YouTube testimonies of Gulf War veterans the likes of Dennis Kyne or Dr. Doug Rokke.

"Why would the U.S. government perpetrate such atrocity on its own soldiers?"

If you haven't been watching, government not only doesn't care about you, it hates you! I don't know how much more emphatically this has to be proven, before you acknowledge such. In this case, "you" denotes the entire populace ― which includes "its soldiers."

Government steals from you, and disguises this thievery as "taxes." It threatens you, and euphemizes this malevolence as "laws." It enslaves you, and informs you it's for your own benefit. It slaughters you ― via GMO proliferation, implementation of a monetary system, nuclear testing, etc. Why the fuck would it stop short by not annihilating "its own troops," as well as its citizens, via biological/chemical warfare and depleted uranium?

It's brainwashed you to believe electric cars aren't feasible. Thus, we're forced to use deleterious internal combustion engines ― which have caused countless deaths from cancer. This, in the face of the fact electric vehicles were produced before gas-powered, and winning races against fossil fuel-burning cars over a century ago.

Suddenly, electric-powered semi trucks are "magically" possible, but for over a hundred years, we just couldn't figure out how to create viable clean engine vehicles?! ***

***

Government has drowned you in radioactive fallout from Fukushima ― doing nothing to mitigate this problem, even though it has the means with which to rectify it…at least for 100 years. **** *****

***** https://youtube.com/watch/…

Government has sold you a bill of goods on nuclear power ― an energy source that uses the most lethal products known to humans, and produces equally virulent waste for which we've no method of disposal. ******

******

How many times do you have to be shot ― at point-blank range, no less ― before you realize somebody's trying to kill you?!

You can conjure up as many fake excuses ― and thus continue to lie to yourself ― that government is somehow here for your benefit. In the meantime, however, bureaucracy will destroy us all. It won't stop until each and every one of us ― including those within government ― is dead.

"The president would never do something like that to us. I'm proud to be an American!"

"I fought for your freedom, and I resent your accusations!"

"Okay, if that's your opinion."

I love that last one, since it's only "my opinion" government has nuked the fuck out of the populace. We all have proof of each and every atomic "test" government has conducted on us. *******

******* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nuclear_weapons_tests

In addition, we've ironclad evidence government destroyed the electric vehicle as a feasible method of transportation. ********

We also possess countless examples of how government profits off our suffering from cancer. Just look around you at how much money bureaucracy would stand to lose if they announced a cure for this disease. Making, and keeping, people sick is huge business!

On top of this, we've innumerable cases ― as well as a paper trail as blatantly definitive as the 405 freeway ― proving government has nuked us with depleted uranium. ********* **********

To those who understand, yet fail to acknowledge what's being done to us, your deranged excuses sound like the ramblings of lunatics…because they are.

"If they're doing it to everybody, it means they're doing it to themselves, as well. Why would they do that?"

One need look no further than the proverb of the scorpion and the turtle:

A scorpion was sunning itself by the edge of a lake. As the day progressed, and the Sun descended behind the trees, he grew cold in the shade. Gazing across the pond, he longed to be on the other side, where the sunlight had yet to be extinguished by the foliage, and the warmth of the day remained.

Unfortunately for the scorpion, he was unable to swim.

Scrambling to the edge of the water, the arachnid spied a turtle preparing to enter the lake.

"Excuse me," the scorpion approached. "Would you be so kind as to give me a ride on your back across the pond?"

"Are you fuckin' nuts!?" the turtle replied. "Look at the size of that hook on your tail! You'll sting me halfway across, and kill me. Beat it, douche bag. I've got swimmin' to do."

With that, the turtle immersed his toe in the water, and prepared to float away.

"I don't mean to sound contentious, but if I sting you, while I'm on your back, we'll both drown, won't we?"

The turtle ― stoned like a woman in the Old Testament having sex out of wedlock ― thought about the scorpion's rationale for a moment.

"Fuck! You're right, man. What logic would there be in killin' yourself?"

"Exactly!" responded the scorpion.

"Shit! Hop on, amigo." The turtle offered up his shell. "Let's do this before I lose my buzz."

Smiling, the scorpion climbed atop the turtle's back, and they headed into the lake.

Halfway across, the scorpion stung the turtle.

"What the fuck, asshole?!"

Immediately, the poison took hold, and the turtle began sinking. "Why the hell'd you do that!? That's not even logical!"

Submerging, as well, the scorpion replied, "It has nothing to do with logic. It's in my nature."

I don't wanna hear:

"Congress didn't know!"

"They kept the information from the Senate!"

"The president wasn't briefed!"

Congress, the Senate and the president are government. Since government is guilty, that means "all government!" You wanna sign up with the enemy ― i.e. bureaucracy ― so you can have your multi-million dollar mansion, and your six BMWs? Well, when we catch the government's balls in a vice, that means those are your testicles we're squeezing.

"The use of uranium emissions, and the destruction of Iraq's nation — Iraqi's infrastructure — has turned Iraq into a radiological, and chemically toxic, nightmare; a sewer; a garbage dump for eternity."

― former Director of The U.S. Army Depleted Uranium Project, Major Doug Rokke, PhD. ***********

***********

Remember when George Bush told "Iraqi" citizens:

"The tyrant will soon be gone. The day of your liberation is near." º

º Ibid.

Again, how do you "liberate" a populace by nuking the shit out of 'em!? Iraq is now so irradiated, it might as well be Pripyat, near Chernobyl.

"How could you use hundreds of tons of depleted uranium over Iraq, knowing that its half-life is four and a half billion years? It'll blow in the sands of the desert forever. It'll be in the air that the Iraqi people breathe. It'll be in the vegetables they eat, and it cannot be filtered out of the water supply.

So the further irony is that in the process of "liberating" Iraq, we have devastated its environment for eternity." ºº

ºº Ibid.

These bastards we've allowed to be in charge are lunatics, hell-bent on "owning" everything, and decimating us in the process. Is it gonna take cancer to destroy your body, before you do something? Are you gonna have to birth a kid with one eye, before you stand up to the enemy — known as government — and eradicate it!?

"Just imagine if any American city had 12,000 homes destroyed, causing the people in them to suffer and die. Hospitals were bombed, utility companies destroyed, and there was no effort whatsoever to help the suffering civilians." ººº

ººº Ibid.

It's estimated 125 to 200 Iraqi children are dying every day, due to the United States' "liberation" plan. These kids can't find water, nor food which hasn't been contaminated. They're perishing from cancers and other diseases caused by the U.S. releasing biological/chemical weaponry, and depleted uranium on them.

"The estimates — as far as the Iraqi casualties, among the children, and amongst the civilian population of Iraq, since the Gulf War I — is on the estimate of two and a half million." ºººº

ºººº Ibid.

"How is this depleted uranium dispersed?"

U.S. and Coalition soldiers are given bullets and bombs filled with this stuff, and told to fire at will. Depleted uranium rounds come in 20, 25, 30, 50, and 120 millimeter shells, "bunker buster" bombs, and cruise missiles. Once these projectiles hit a target, they explode, releasing their lethal cargo into the environment.

"The incidence of childhood cancer in Basra — [a city in Iraq with nearly three million people] — now has gone up 700 percent, or seven times. We've never seen this in medicine before."

― pediatrician, and president of The Nuclear Policy Institute, Helen Caldicott, MD ººººº

ººººº Ibid.

Much of the Middle East is arid desert. Sand in this region is carried vast distances, via dust storms. Hence, depleted uranium deposits in Afghanistan and Iraq end up elsewhere. There's strong indication ― based on uranium spikes thousands of miles away, that coincide with the dissemination of this lethal material ― it already has.

"People all over the world are going to inhale this dust, in various concentrations — depending upon the weather patterns, and the weather flows.

So there will be a big spike of uranium genetic damage in the world genome population, not just in the people, but in the animals — in the earthworms, in the birds, in the rats, in the deer; in every single living system that lives in zones where this uranium will have gone to.

And this will lead to increases in infertility, to increases in birth defects, to increases in cancer, increases in a whole range of illnesses. It's a very, very serious problem."

― Scientific Secretary of the European Committee on Radiation Risk, Dr. Christopher Busby ºººººº

ºººººº Ibid.

So, next time you're voting, and thereby giving the enemy life, realize by doing so, you're perpetuating this genocide. A genocide not only of those in Afghanistan and Iraq, but of you, and your immediate family, as well.

THE BIG PYRAMID SCHEME

"All plastic is oil. Most paints, all pesticides, are made from oil. Everything from toothpaste to toothbrushes is made from oil. There are seven gallons of oil in every tire. There is nothing anywhere, in any combination, that will replace the edifice built by fossil fuels. Nothing."

― Michael C. Ruppert *

What would happen if Earth suddenly ran out of oil? Do you even realize oil is a finite resource, and will someday run dry?

It's true. There's only so much of it in the ground. When it's gone, it's gone.

What's more, we don't know how much oil is left in the planet. We don't have technology to determine such. Hence, we're left to guess. We can keep plunging our machinery into the soil, but we're not sure where, or if, rich reserves remain.

We do know oil will someday run out. We'll always have a scant amount, but nowhere near enough to keep things running the way they do now. Oil is vital to our society. We're addicted to it!

Without it, not only do cars stop running, but manufacture of vehicles becomes obsolete, since oil is required to build them. Tires are made of oil, and so is much of your auto's interior ― from dashboard to stick shift, and anything plastic. What about the rubber around your windows, and belts, cables, caps and tubes within your engine?

Machines used to fabricate cars require oil. You can't construct these mechanized tools without petroleum to transmit the parts they're comprised of.

And we're just talkin' cars here. What about planes, ships and other modes of transportation? All rely on oil, in order to become a reality. No more oil means no more plane flights…anywhere…for anyone.

But let's ponder beyond travel. Since your cell phone is largely comprised of plastic, your days of texts and Tweets are numbered. Walk around your house, and determine how many items within are composed of, or use, plastic in their manufacture.

A preponderance of containers; receptacles your laundry soap comes in, and the plastic bags used to carry them from the grocery store. Air conditioning covers, bath mats, condoms, credit cards, drills, key parts, licenses, office supplies, pill bottles, sunglasses, tool handles ― and so much more ― use plastic in their final products.

But even items not comprised of plastic require oil to become a reality. Your house wasn't produced without prodigious petroleum. There's fuel to power saws, used to cut the trees down. And then, of course, there's oil to ship those trees ― on petroleum-burning trucks ― to the lumberyard.

From there, that raw wood is cut into pieces customized for your home. This requires labor. Labor, no less, who drive to their "jobs" in vehicles powered by fossil fuel.

That finished wood is shipped to a manufacturer who packages it, using plastic.

If oil ran out tomorrow ― since we're unsure how much is left ― society may collapse.

A few more things we know: As long as there's money, people lie. Thus, those extracting oil will never admit they're running out. It's bad for business, and revolutions destroy corporations. As a result, we might be nearly dry, and not even aware of it.

We also know it's far more expensive to drill for oil offshore than on land. Thus, when current top producers ― like Saudi Arabia ― begin mining petroleum in the ocean, you know they're runnin' low. Offshore oil rigs, used by this nation, are cause for concern. If ample petroleum is left in Saudi Arabia, why would those doing the extracting spend exceedingly more to drill for it at sea?

Known as Peak Oil, it's the maximum amount of petroleum humans will extract from Earth. Peak Oil represents at least half of this planet's supply. After that, everything is in decline. Due to how quickly we consume it, perhaps steady decline.

The term was first introduced by geologist and geophysicist M. King Hubbert, decades ago. Hubbert correctly projected United States Peak Oil ― that is, the maximum amount of oil produced in the U.S. ― would be reached in the 1970s.

Many believe we've already achieved Peak Oil, globally. Others feel such is a long way off. Without a method of determining how much petroleum remains, how are we to know?

Doesn't frenzied use of this resource ― without a suitable back-up ― seem a recipe for disaster? Isn't determining how much oil is left, so we can monitor our consumption of it, more intelligent?

If you reside in a freezing tundra, you don't chop down all the trees at once, burning them immediately, for warmth. If you did, you'd die. First, you determine how dense the forest is, and how deep it goes. From this, you conclude how many trees you can fell, so you won't run out in the middle of winter.

"Until mankind surrenders to the fact that it lives on a finite planet, and it must have balance with that planet — with the planet's resources, with the animal life and all the other life — there can be no happiness for anything. Anything. It's all about getting balance back. […]

The challenge being faced by the human race now is either evolve, or perish; either grow up, or die." **

** Ibid.

Hydroelectric semi trucks are currently being produced. As such, will our fuel conundrum be mitigated when oil runs out? Even so, what of the countless other products we depend on every day, thanks to petroleum? How will those be replaced?

Peak Oil or not, this resource will run dry. Now that we're dependent on it, how do we replace it? What if technology we're reliant upon today, isn't available tomorrow? When oil runs out, will only the monetarily rich be able to afford vehicles and other items currently at our disposal?

It's not solely a matter of running out of oil; it's how detrimental our consumption of Earth's resources has become.

Due to fracking, folks in the Midwest are able to ignite water that's emitting from their home faucets. ***

***

This is water people drink! Gulpin' gallons of methane can't be good.

And what of the hundreds of earthquakes suddenly occurring in Oklahoma ― where fracking's immense business? Damaging the planet, in blind pursuit of cash, is retarded! You're willfully ruining the one and only spaceship you travel on, in order to collect a bunch of useless strips of paper. Would you drill holes in the cruise ship you're at sea in, so you can fill your bank account with cash? You're sick; mentally deranged.

"It's like Chief Seattle said: 'Not until you have killed the last fish, and cut down the last tree, and poisoned the last river, will you discover that you cannot eat money.' " ****

****

Blinded by greed, you don't care what you're doing to this planet ― the only home you have in this cosmos. Nor do you care what you're doing to humanity, which includes yourself. That's insane, and even the most articulate of tongues can't mount an argument to refute such.

"All of the leaders of the industrialized world who are talkin' about growth, and who are serving the IMF, the world bank, and the U.S. dollar hegemony, and infinite growth, monetary paradigm — which is a pyramid scheme — have absolutely no concern; a complete psychotic disconnect for our relationship with the planet." *****

*****

Lunatics you elect as "leaders" are psychopathic. Moreover, you're emulating them. That means you're striving to be psychopathic!

You'll never understand what their end game is, because they're insane! They solely want to "win," even if doing so means killing themselves in the process! There's no way to comprehend madness, because it's madness. There's no rhyme nor reason to it.

Take a look at what you've become. This is the creepiest of conclusions. It doesn't have to be this way. You have the power, and can eliminate this evil.

"An ear of corn has value; a barrel of oil has value. […]

The people who have run the monetary paradigm — the economic paradigm — since money was first invented, have wanted to mystify it, and to make everybody believe that only some expert could understand the mumbo jumbo of the priesthood of money." ******

******

Again, money is only strips of paper; IOUs. There's nothing complex about it. Attempting to make yourself appear "wise," because you "understand" money, only makes you look like a douche bag to those plugged in to reality.

"Three things only anybody needs to know about the way money works around the world, today:

One. Fiat Currency. What is money?

If I were to take a bill out of my wallet — and I reach in my wallet, and I pull out this bill — it's $20. Wow. Okay. Can I eat it? Can I roll it up, and chew it? Do I get calories and vitamins? No, I don't.

Can I crumple it up, and throw it in my gas tank? Is the car gonna go anywhere? No, it's gonna clog the fuel injectors, maybe.

This is only a symbol. This doesn't mean anything; it's fiat; it's created out of thin air, because somebody turned on a printing press. That's all it is. […]

Then we have something called fractional reserve banking. If you were to bring me a $10 deposit, I could make $90 worth of loans, based on just having that $10 in my drawer, because it's all calculated on the premise that not everybody's gonna come in and want their cash all at once. That's called a run on the bank. […]

Pretty much everybody is understanding how compound interest works. The higher the interest rate on your credit card — for those people who had 20, 25 percent cards — that means they're creating that much more money, if they don't pay cash every month.

What I have just described is a pyramid scheme.

We live in an infinite growth paradigm, which requires growth forever. It's not that Bernie Madoff was a pyramid scheme, or [Allen] Stanford was a pyramid scheme. The whole economy is a pyramid scheme. The whole global economy cannot be sustained. It requires infinite growth, but infinite growth collides with finite energy." *******

******* Ibid.

I hate writing these blogs! If we existed in a rational paradigm, I wouldn't have to.

Even more painful is the fact I have no support. The information I'm disseminating ― an amalgamation of facts ― is so hurtful to consider, even my friends refuse to peruse. I've been writing for more than a quarter of a century, and my material goes largely unread. That's agonizing!

Such stated, I'm superlative at my craft, and aware I'm distributing truth. Still, why do I torture myself?

"If there was a German in 1932, '33 who had the foresight to look ahead, and to see what the inevitable end result of the Third Reich would be, if there was somebody who had seen that coming, do you honestly think that they could — in good [conscience] — turn around and walk away from it, and pretend it wasn't there? […]

We are all collectively, as a species, responsible for what may be the greatest preventable holocaust in the history of planet Earth; our own suicide. How do you walk away from that? How do you sleep at night? Who is anybody — who are you — to tell me it would've been easier to walk away? […] Because to walk away would've meant to compromise; to walk away would've meant selling out." ********

MARS DIRECT

"The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space — each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision."

What does selling phone plans have to do with coordinating a manned mission to Mars?

Absolutely fuckin' nothing.

How 'bout stocking shelves at Kmart?

Not a goddamned thing.

Your security guard gig?

Still no correlation.

Do we actually believe government ― the same institution that makes us homeless, when we don't pay its extortion fees, disguised as "taxes" ― has this overarching plan to transform our wasted lives of servitude into a trip to the Red Planet?

Are we so naive we think, by sweatin' it out as Subway "sandwich artists," in some fucked-up, and completely invisible way, we're bringing humanity closer to colonizing one of our nearest planetary neighbors?

As we scrub toilets, at downtown office buildings, are we exuberant in our knowledge we're providing an escape plan for our kind, when Earth is no longer habitable?

Are we fuckin' high?!?

NASA ― the government ― is a joke, and wants nothing to do with space exploration, nor the colonization of Mars. Such is only too obvious. Cosmically, we never get anywhere, and anytime somebody discovers how we can, bureaucracy destroys their plan.

These fuckers want us trapped on this planet. If prisoners can escape, they're no longer prisoners, are they?

Ever asked yourself how we went to the Moon 40-plus years ago ― during an epoch without personal computers ― but now, in an age of near-instantaneous global communication, we can't go anywhere in our solar system?

How is it we were able to land on the lunar surface pre-VHS days, but in our paradigm of cloning and 3-D printing, we're stuck on Earth, traveling nowhere else?

Again, government wants you here. If you stray, they can't control you. If you realize interplanetary ― as well as interstellar ― travel is feasible, you're gonna demand they pump all that cash they're counterfeiting into doing so. And they'd rather spend those useless pieces of paper on perpetuating wars ― wars they monetarily profit from, no less.

In a money system ― which is solely about control ― you ain't goin' anywhere. They'll lie to you they're working on "it," but "it" furtively means "nothing."

If you lived on a desert island, wouldn't the first thing you thought about be how to escape? Then why haven't you ever ruminated about how to get to Mars?

You do realize Earth is a desert island, from which you've no feasible evacuation plan, should this planet no longer be habitable, don't you? Say there's an errant asteroid headed our way, that will obliterate life on our blue-green speck of dust. Where are you gonna go, and how are you gonna get there? You don't even have lifeboats built with which to float into the vast cosmic ocean, do you?

Why do you think that is ― being it's so blatantly important?

It's because you've been brainwashed to believe that selling insurance, being Scottsdale's "number one real estate broker," or driving for Uber not only matter, but are integral to our survival, as a species. The above definitively proves they aren't, and you're simply being used up and executed, in this sick pyramid scheme.

In the midst of this comes the Mars Direct program, as designed by former Martin Marrieta aerospace engineer Robert Zubrin. Bob was tired of hearing the same excuses from government, whenever he asked, "Why the fuck aren't we going to Mars?!" Thus, he and a colleague devised a viable modality for setting foot on the Red Planet.

Zubrin's methodology is known as Mars Direct, and it was heralded worldwide by laymen and fellow scientists. Even NASA claimed they loved it. Of course they hated it, since it meant a feasible escape plan for the slaves. Hence, because it's doable, they shut it down.

As Robert stated:

"The question of whether we can do humans to Mars in 10 years is somewhat analogous to the question of how much rope does it take to connect two posts separated by a distance of 10 meters.

In principle, it could be done with 10 meters of rope. On the other hand, if you let the rope be tangled every which way, it could take an infinite amount of rope.

So the answer to the question is dependent upon whether you actually wanna connect the two posts, or whether you're tryin' to sell rope." **

**

According to Zubrin, NASA's plans for a manned Mars mission were all about sales. Paying proprietors ― those selling the technology ― was the name of their game. As such, the price tag for the government's proposals were astronomical. Hence, these "blueprints" were designed to fail, since government knew nobody would foot the bill.

Mars Direct, however, went the logical route. The only question this program asked was: "How do we get to Mars the simplest way possible?"

NASA plans would've loaded the spacecraft with fuel necessary not only for the initial trip, but the return to Earth, as well.

As Zubrin asks, "Did Lewis and Clark carry all the supplies they needed, in order to make it to the west coast?" Of course not. If they had, they would've been too burdened to move by an exponential amount of provisions. Instead, they lived off resources discovered during their adventure. Zubrin suggests such is needed for Mars Direct.

Robert's big on ERVs ― Earth Return Vehicles ― sent sans crew to Mars, prior the manned mission. These rockets hang out on the surface of the planet, awaiting arrival of their human pilots.

Within the ERVs, we've the technology to create methane oxygen ― rocket fuel ― from the copious quantity of carbon dioxide found on Mars. This propellant is stored in the ship's fuel tanks.

After the astronauts land, they carry out their directives, hop in one of the ERVs ― with a full gas tank ― fire up the engines, and head home. Again, Zubrin's Mars Direct is simple, and thereby viable.

The Hab ― the spacecraft in which the crew travel from Earth ― is left on Mars, vacant and awaiting a second mission.

When this next sojourn happens ― identical to the first ― a second Hab is left on the Red Planet, and connected to that which is already there. After the third mission, the same, and so on. By adding and connecting these living quarters, you build a small city on the surface, with room for half a dozen more people ― the number of humans a Hab holds ― each mission.

Thus, after 10 missions, you'd have 10 Habs on Mars, all connected together, able to accommodate 60 people.

Makes ya' wonder how big the village would've been on Mars by now, if we would've sent ERVs and Habs to the Red Planet all these years, instead of useless rovers.

NASA's proposals for a manned mission to Mars involved launches from Moon bases, and space stations. Zubrin sliced through the bullshit, asserting directives calling for such are seeking those, and nothing else:

"Let's pretend we're supporting a manned mission to Mars, and declare a lunar base is necessary, in order to reach the Red Planet. In actuality, though, all we really want is said base. Hence, they build our objective, and we quickly lose the 'impetus' for the Mars thing."

Stephen Paddock shoots up a concert in Vegas, killing 58 people, and millions mourn?! Vigils are created, flags are flown at half-mast, and mountains of money are accumulated on behalf of the victims. The obvious hypocrisy has been missed here.

Over a million people are slaughtered in Iraq ― most of them innocent civilians ― by U.S. and Coalition forces. Yet, throngs don't lament.

Not that it matters, since it's useless symbolism ― and therefore doesn't help ― but flags aren't flown at half-mast for these victims. Where are the mourners for this genocide? Why aren't trillions of dollars gathered for these innocents who've suffered irrevocably? A human life is a human life. It doesn't matter if you're erroneously labeled "American," or "Iraqi." It's another human being.

In these two cases, we're talkin' 58 folk versus well over a million! As such, doesn't our moral compass seem so far off, the needle isn't just spinning wildly, it's fuckin' broken, melted and permanently lost at the bottom of the Bermuda Triangle?

Again, why would you pretend to freak the fuck out over 58 people being killed, but remain indifferent about more than 1,000,000 obliterated? Doesn't it appear you've been brainwashed; indoctrinated into falsely believing those categorized "American" are somehow superior to those who aren't? That's gross, and you know it!

Why this departure from the Mars topic? If humans are gonna save themselves, much less get anywhere cosmically, this ludicrous ideology of "countries" has to go. Only when we realize we're all one, and therefore work together, will we save ourselves from ourselves.

How quickly do you think humanity would accomplish a manned mission to Mars, if we refused to adhere to this crazy "country" crap, and placed all our human efforts into traveling to the Red Planet?

Seven billion people workin' on this problem?! Ten years? I'm speculating, but that seems a little long. Five? Perhaps a year? We are talkin' seven billion people working as one, here.

Why haven't Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk ― founder of Amazon.com and former CEO of PayPal, respectively ― joined forces in their quest to put humans into space? Both have taken great steps to initiate manned missions to the Moon and Mars, again respectively, but neither have broached the subject of working together.

Are we that brainwashed we can't see competition ― in this case, or any other ― hinders us from saving ourselves in an inherently violent Universe?

Both these dudes bitch about the cost of "this," and the cost of "that," when it comes to space travel. That said, I guarantee you the monetary system would be thrown out the window, if our backs were against the wall, and we discovered Earth would be destroyed in two years. At that point, we'd be colonizin' Mars like a motherfucker ― suddenly all "brothers" and "sisters" ― those non-existent, nationalistic boundaries "magically" obliterated.

Instantaneously, we'd shit-can this whole perfidious money thing, and cost would no longer be an object, since there would be no cost. Guess what, dumb-asses? There never was. It was all in our minds.

With both these billionaires working together ― telling NASA to go fuck itself ― we'd be on Mars in no time. With seven billion people working on this conundrum, and no impediments ― i.e. money ― we'd have already been on Mars, probably terraformed it, and currently using it as either a secondary, or primary, home.

You might falsely believe Bezos and Musk are geniuses, but how smart can they be, if they're not intelligent enough to realize the obvious?

They've missed a fundamental step, by courting a system that's overtly enslaving them. They, themselves, claim the cost of space travel is a hindrance. So remove that impediment ― i.e. eradicate the monetary system ― and suddenly you've eliminated the lone obstacle from not only getting into space, but saving your species.

After all, if we can't feasibly escape this desert island we call our planet, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk will die, the same as you, when the shit comes down. The only difference is, they'll have a bunch of useless pieces of paper in their possession, and you won't.

This system is insane! If authority declared old newspapers, instead of cash, were of tremendous value, suddenly that 98 year old at the end of the street ― who's stocked his home, from floor to ceiling, with moldy copies of the New York Times ― would be "rich!" This, even though you'd steered clear of his house for years, due to his crazy hobby.

Stop following; stop being led. Start thinking for yourself, before it's too late.

If we don't obliterate our species from Earth, or some commonplace cosmic event doesn't take us out, future generations aren't gonna give a fuck who "won" this war, nor that. There are no winners in war. We're all losers, since we're killing our own species. People will revel, however, in the day our kind first set foot on another planet.

FINDING NEO

"The problem was you had to keep choosing between one evil or another, and no matter what you chose, they sliced a little more off you, until there was nothing left. At the age of 25, most people were finished. A whole goddamned nation of assholes driving automobiles, eating, having babies, doing everything in the worst way possible, like voting for the presidential candidate who reminded them most of themselves."

― Charles Bukowski *

Eugenics: It's what's being done to us.

Eugenics is creation of a "master race," via thinning of the herd. In this case, though, the eugenicists are deranged lunatics. Thus, the result isn't some superior species. Rather, it's what we have today; scared, ignorant people killing each other over paper.

When envisioning eugenics, think Adolf Hitler and the extermination of anyone deemed "Jewish." The Boys From Brazil; blonde hair, blue eyes, or death. Logan's Run in real life; if you're 30, you're too old, and must die.

Those who demand this genocide harm themselves in the process. Consider the brilliant minds Hitler ordered obliterated. Minds that could have cured Alzheimer's, cancer, dementia, multiple sclerosis, etc.

What if Hitler had "won" the war? What if he subsequently contracted a life-threatening disease some "Jew" he sent to the gas chamber would have developed a panacea for? In his pursuit to "cleanse," Adolf may have destroyed himself, as well as countless "Nazis" who ended up dying of afflictions someone they exterminated might have remedied. All due to an elitist mindset.

But you're an elitist, as well.

"Me?! I believe in equality for all."

Sure you do. As long as "all" are "American."

"No. I'm cool with folks from other countries."

Yet, when U.S. soldiers slaughter a million in this nation, and hundreds of thousands in that, all you're concerned about is who won Monday Night Football. You feel your status as "American" affords you a privileged place among society's hierarchy.

"Again, I have no problems with those from other regions."

You may not, but your "leaders" do. Since you vote for these "commanders," and talk about them ― i.e. support them ― you're complicit in eugenics. You perpetuate a system that's killing us all.

And if you don't believe the U.S. is engaged in thinning the herd, grab yourself a copy of War Against the Weak: America's Campaign to Create a Master Race. Castrations, forced sterilizations, proposed euthanasia, and segregation were part of the U.S. eugenics plan Hitler found so enticing he just had to adopt it for his Third Reich.

Unbeknownst to you, your own government has ordered, and carried out, at least 60,000 forced sterilizations on fellow "Americans."

Obviously, they've segregated us, via the monetary system. Just hit Vegas. Homeless urchins in the street, on the verge of death, curled up in the shade of Trump Hotel.

When it comes to euthanasia, I'd say nuking the shit out of a population, and disguising it as "tests for our benefit" applies.

Castrations? There were more than a few carried out surreptitiously in the U.S., by unhinged psychos doubling as "doctors."

From the Eugenics Record Office (ERO), in Cold Spring Harbor, New York, douche bags Charles Davenport and Harry Laughlin were the main architects of this modern culling. That said, there were so many others who played key roles.

How 'bout Margaret Sanger ― founder of Planned Parenthood? What a woman! This freak was an advocate of forced sterilization for those she deemed unfit to procreate. That's right! The place from whence you receive your birth control pills was built by some chick who thought she was God.

So who made the grade, when it came to the U.S. eugenics kill list?

Anybody eugenicists didn't like on a particular day. "Feeble-mindedness" was a biggie for a while, as was epilepsy ― both of which eugenicists declared hereditary.

Whether these afflictions are due to lineage, or not, was of no concern. Eugenicists would fabricate test results, engage in pseudo-science, and lie, to promote their agenda. An agenda, no less, based solely on personal prejudice.

Don't like somebody? Choose one of their traits, get yourself some money muscle ― the Carnegies, Harrimans or Rockefellers ― and become a eugenicist. Is it any surprise all three of these disturbingly monetarily wealthy families funded eugenics research, making forced sterilizations a reality?

It got to the point fuckheads in this "field" did their damnedest to sway popular opinion that being poor was hereditary. What the fuck does not being able to collect useless pieces of paper have to do with your genes?! We're talkin' a stretch here wider than the gap between Dick Cheney and compassion!

Blindness was on the shitlist for a while, as was poor eyesight. Stupid as fuck, when you consider Warren Buffet wears glasses, but he's a multi-billionaire. Hence, do ya' fit him with cement shoes, or make him part of your cretinous club?

Teddy Roosevelt sported spectacles, and so did Herbert Hoover. Franklin's on the hundred, right? Maybe we should shuffle his inferior ass off, though, since he wore bifocals.

Truman wouldn't have been able to drop two atomic bombs on his own species, had a eugenicist ― big on the poor eyesight thing ― gotten their hands on him.

Again, no rhyme nor reason, because madness has no rhyme nor reason.

Throughout this insanity, one wonders: "Where's Neo? I can't find him anywhere."

He's with you all the time, because you are Neo. We all have the ability to be.

Again, when separated from this succubus system, we can accomplishing anything. Anything!

There are no limits to our abilities. Each of us can assist in S.O.S ― saving our species. We've been misled to believe we're inherently evil; our accomplishments extending only as far as accumulating dirty pieces of paper. That's not what we're about, but that's what we've allowed ourselves to become.

It's a waste, when you realize we should be traveling from solar system to solar system.

Instead, we settle for smoking weed in our trailers, and plugging our internal hard drives into the propaganda promoter every night, downloading the latest lies into our skulls.

We could be communicating with countless other species, to figure out what everything is about. Rather, we're just happy when the system leaves us alone for an hour, so we can play video games, and "escape."

It's plausible, by now, we wouldn't be three-dimensional entities. Rather, we may be dealing on four, five and six alternate planes, seeing what's been around us for millennia ― that which we're currently unable to experience, due to limiting of our abilities. In lieu of the amazing, though, we're satisfied showing our masters what good, little slaves we are, and happy in our incarceration.

"Job" applications ― replete with exuberant actors ― displaying unbridled ecstasy over the prospect of imprisonment. "Start a satisfying and lucrative career with Allstate, Taco Bell, or Walmart!"

Well, I'm not happy being a slave! I haven't been since I began unraveling this horse shit years ago. Hence, I am Neo ― here among you all, fighting for your liberation, and being attacked by you constantly. I'm strong. I have to be, in order to continue this battle.

You can be just as powerful, but you choose to be nowhere near what you're capable of. Mine is not an enviable position. That said, if it weren't for Neos ― since there are many of us around ― there'd be no escape from the Matrix.

"So, if there's a Neo, there has to be a Morpheus. Where's he?"

As far as I can discern, Morpheus and Neo are one, since I've offered up nothing more than the truth to those interested in taking The Red Pill. Anyone who continues to awaken also becomes Morpheus.

Makes ya' wonder if Larry Fishburne and Keanu Reeves comprehend the reality exposed by the movie they were making. Then again, who gives a fuck?! What matters is that we end our enslavement.

Shine the spotlight on the festering insects controlling our species. Expose them for the evil they are. These aren't your "leaders." You don't need to be led. You can lead yourselves. You've always been able to.
