Do you understand what's actually going on?

My online work lately has shown me that less than 1% of people do.







Do you understand what's actually going on?

Most people are completely ignorant/unaware to some of the most powerful and important things affecting their lives.

Get the heck in here and let's all figure out together what's really going on.

I expected this to take several posts to get to the heart of the matter, but the very first post nailed it on the head in as few words as possible. I literally got intense chills and goose bumps at how perfect that first post was.

If any of you have any questions then please ask now and let's all hash this thing out together and be a part of the solution ie. the Great Awakening is in our hands and we can choose to be a part of it or not. If we don't then the Great Reset wins instead; and if the GR wins then you and everyone you know will be put under totalitarian rule similar to China's.

I certainly don't know it all but I have put all of my being into understanding this, have prayed to God daily for guidance and direction in understanding it so that I can help others understand it, and am in tune with what's going on and have a good head start into this. So do a few others here.

So who has questions and what are they?

You'll always be in the 1% of knowledgeable people, because once more people start believing what you believe you just start believing something crazier and more far fetched.

The great reset = Technocracy, digital currency, slavery and destruction of western civilization =NWO under technocracy.


The great awakening = digital currency, elite paedo/technocrat exposure, not outright slavery like the first one but still control via digital blockchain currency and will probably end in slavery again once the technocrats regroup and take control again.



Either way imo the world is about to change MASSIVELY over the next 10 to 15 years.



The average person is an outright sheeple and has no clue whatsover about whats going on.

Thats why I have little faith either way is going to end well.

There are certain types of people who know, or believe they know, all this crazy stuff that is happening. Iโ€™m not making a judgement on what youโ€™re saying. But I always wonder, what is it that you want to happen? People get all excited and loud about how theyโ€™re taking over this and forcing you to do that, or post long essays online about whatโ€™s happening. Itโ€™s all explanatory. It all means nothing.

What do you want to happen after somebody reads it? What should they do? What action should be taken? Without that, to me it looks like somebody getting off on some kind of kick. Thatโ€™s just what it looks like to me. I donโ€™t know for a fact thatโ€™s what it is.
Entire NYPD should go on strike. You'll see then how quickly the mayor changes his tone.

There is one and only one way to stop the Great Reset. This is the 'Great Awakening' if we can succeed, but you must understand we are way far behind the Great Resetters. They right now have a high likelihood of success if things stay status quo.

So here is how we win and defeat them. It requires two things:


- mass awareness of it

- organization, from the local to the national to the international level, against it


They have laid the groundwork for the active phase of the Great Reset for a very long time.

The GR will either be defeated or it will succeed and if it succeeds then the world as you know it is going to be radically altered in all ways and in all ways you don't like unless you like totalitarian government with total police states, total surveillance state, loss of all rights and private property, and you becoming what is in effect a slave.

2020 - 2030 is the active phase of it. They plan to have it fully completed by 2030. You thought 2020 was bad? It's only getting started.

They've made the false excuse that they have not only the right, but the command to do this against us and without our consent because 'climate change' and 'because virus' demand they do so. Screw them. Thesepeopleare the devil's pricks and are going to have to be defeated by us all if they don't cease and desist, which looks unlikely at this point.

From 2001-2020 terrorism was the primary excuse for creating a significant part of the needed requirement for the current active phase of the Great Reset. 'Terrorism' made possible the creation of the massive surveillance state, anti-terrorist law enforcement and military, deep state, and mass media control that included the total intertwining of our TV and internet media with the deep state ... all of which are necessary to be able to prevent/surveil/interdict any resistance to their overthrow of the country and installation of totalitarianism.

To make a long story short, it becomes evident after much reading and watching of all they're saying and doing that they want to make the US and rest of world like China. They benefit greatly from the slaves in China and so they want that now in the US and all over now. Apparently they've been asking, 'why can only China provide our slaves. We have all these people in the US and all these other countries that we can turn into our slaves also.'

There is no such thing in reality as 'communism.' There is not now nor ever has been a 'communist' country - at least not how Marxist communism describes it. Of the dozens of Marxist revolutions that succeeded, not a single one of them created the promised 'social ownership of the means of production' or the 'classless, stateless society.' The exact opposite of those things happen instead. The reason why is because 1) theoretical communism is literally an impossibility in a large, modern, diverse society and 2) the true nature of Marxism is that it's actually just a highly intelligent scam to overthrow a free people and enslave them under the scammers' totalitarian rule. That's what they want to do here and globally.

A Soros shill like Trump isn't going to save the country. On the contrary he's helping destroy it right alongside Soros. When Trump finally says Soros' name for the first time and then describes in detail what he's been up to ... along with warning publicly about the Great Reset in detail and accurately ... then and only then can he be trusted again. However I highly suspect he will refuse to do those two things ... especially given his/Ivanka's/Jared's relationships with Soros and others of that cult. I know many people have hope but it's wholly unrealistic hope until we get mass awareness and organization, neither of which we have. A disorganized mass of unaware fools following a Soros shill aren't going to save the country. They'll only help those destroying it.


So the only way to defeat it is 1) mass awareness and 2) organization. We have neither yet and most people are clueless about it and living in a blind fog to what's rapidly developing right in front of them. THAT is what the Great Awakening is in a nutshell. They will without question try to destroy the GA by any and all means possible, including but not limited to the use of controlled opposition agents and infiltration and subversion of the movement to destroy it.

One of the key moves that must be made is that we cut off all trade with China as long as they are ruled by the Communist Party of China or similar. THAT is a HUGE part of the current problem. Without them gaining immense wealth and power by bloodletting us, with help from domestic enemies here in the US, none of this Great Reset would be happening.

The primary problem isn't a virus. The primary problem is the highly-coordinated, tyrannical, totalitarian Great Reset government response.

Everything major going on now isn't about a virus, or riots, or terrorism or etc ---> It's about control; taking more and more control until global totalitarianism is created. To make a long story short, the scam coup plotters intend to turn the US and the whole ****ing planet into a system just like what China has now.





This is what I think is an interesting post by me from Aug 2019

If they decided that it was time for communism in the US, then that's who would win and what would happen.

(and that's exactly what they're leading us towards)
That was before the active phase began and the virus was released.

This poem from long ago breaks my heart every time I read it, because it relates perfectly to today...

"My dear son
I am so sorry you are going to have to live under communism.
It seemed to come so quickly.
I didn't think their lies could win.
I guess we were so busy with other things.
Not enough of us spoke up for freedom when we had the chance."






also important to understand is the role that all of us sending money to China has played in this...

Weightaholic posted this the other day and it's important to repeat it here ...


The China Hack and How to Reverse It
https://prospect.org/economy/the-chi...to-reverse-it/
...
"It wasnโ€™t a particularly new or innovative idea. Vladimir Lenin saw the opportunity a century ago: โ€œThey [capitalists] will furnish credits which will serve us for the support of the Communist Party in their countries and, by supplying us materials and technical equipment which we lack, will restore our military industry necessary for our future attacks against our suppliers. To put it in other words, they will work on the preparation of their own suicide.โ€

But the Soviets couldnโ€™t take advantage of our fundamental flaw because our predecessors understood the risk and never allowed our systems to integrate. Plus, unlike the Chinese, the Soviets had few products the West wanted; and Cold Warriors recognized the USSR as a prime geopolitical adversary. For a long time, America refused to deal with non-free-market societies.

But as time passed and the Soviet Union collapsed, Nixon made his famous overture to Chinaโ€”and our business sector set their sights on big, juicy, billion-person China, which was a more complex hybrid than the USSR. It had all the right ingredients. Cheap labor. A massive market. Indifference to the environment. And growing competence at manufacturing. American businesses lobbied our policymakers hard for the opportunity to take advantage of those incentives. In pursuit of individual self-interest, we pushed aside Chinaโ€™s human rights record and our tradition of only dealing with countries that bought into our system. If we brought them our trade, so the thought went, our values would follow. This became the U.S. government line as China was welcomed into the WTO with no conditions. Only China didnโ€™t change. Instead, unwittingly, we worked โ€œon the preparation of [our] own suicide.โ€ Because China understood that we would blindly pursue profit over principle, and seduced every sector of business and manufacturing the same way they seduced Hughes, Loral, and McDonnell Douglas.
..





We had a trade embargo against communist China(rightfully so) until the early 70's when comrade Kissinger ended that and I have no doubt he knew exactly what the eventual outcome would be ...


The US is involved in trade with a massive communist country, that's what's wrong.
That should have never been allowed to happen. It's a highly irrational decision for a free country to make; but for communist subversive immigrant-made-secretary-of-state Kissinger it was likely more rational than not.
A capitalist country cannot have free and open trade with a communist country. Such a thing does not exist because there is no such thing as a free and open communist country.
As long as it continues the US will continue to be bled dry until its economy is destroyed and it's standard of living is no better (and most likely worse) than that of the communist countries.
ie; The -only- answer is a total trade embargo with China(until/unless they become capitalist and democratic) and all socialist-communist countries, any other countries that have centrally planned economies/command economies, and/or those that do not allow true private ownership and control of business.




There was a trade embargo with communist China up until the 70's. It was highly successful. The Communist Party of China was dirt poor and would have collapsed around the same time as the USSR if we had never lifted the embargo and started sending them a massive river of wealth. It should have never been lifted. It is irrational for us to do anything else other than to begin a new full trade embargo with them. We should return to that full trade embargo with them, permanently, as long as China is ruled and owned by the Communist Party of China.



As long as Amazon, Ebay, Walmart etc etc etc etc etc etc and all their shoppers are making communist China filthy rich to the tune of + hundreds of billions more dollars to them and away from us every year, year after year after year, leaving the US going to China in horribly-irrationally-bad trade with a centrally-planned and highly-fully-100%-radically competitive communist slave economy, then China's golden age will not only continue but continue to grow in size and power and wealth while our share continues to shrink.
We've made humanity's largest communist country ever go from dirt poor impotent country to filthy rich superpower at our own expense.
Socialist-communist Americans including many right here at this forum love nothing more than seeing the rise of communist China and the downfall of the US and would prefer communist China to be the world's only superpower.
What will happen if we don't stop it and stop it soon is that the US will inevitably become more and more like China.
Ideally all trade with China would be cut (like we did and did extremely well under until a few decades ago) until they become more and more like us instead, in terms of multi-party democracy(instead of communism), private ownership of business labor and property(capitalism instead of communism), human rights, regulations, equal trade policies, end to the theft of intellectual property, etc.


The US economy was by far the strongest on the planet before Nixon/Kissinger decided to open up trade with communist China. It never should have happened whatever the reasoning given was(to isolate the USSR). Capitalist and free workers and business can't coexist in open trade successfully with the slave labor and centrally-controlled business of communism. The only way to deal with communism is to smother it in all ways. Communism seeks to do the same thing to capitalism.

US-China trade has done nothing but help China, while harming the US in innumerable ways.

There of course would be initial pain on the US as we reintegrate and reorganize our economy, but the long-term benefit would be infinite.


...

So in sum a part of the whole solution to the problem requires cutting off all trade with China and any and all other non-free countries, although that will sting a little and hurt certain businesses until we reorganize our economy.










Kissinger is to blame for this probably more than anyone else. He made sure two major things happened during his early years:

1) He made sure we lost the war to the communists in Vietnam .. a war that was already a sure win in 1969 when he came into power.

2) He made sure we opened up trade with communist China.


He was the instrumental driving factor in those two events.

Nixon and Ford were just his useful idiots.
















Henry Kissinger shakes hand with Le Duc Tho, leader of the North Vietnam delegation, on January 23, 1973.






On December 2, 1975, Kissinger meets a jubilant Mao Tse Tung at his residence in the Beijing Forbidden City complex.







Kissinger first met a highly suspicious Mao in China in early 1972 and assured him that he could make dirt poor communist China rich beyond their wildest dreams...

Sorry I somehow missed this post at first.

Help me on this if you have the time and can. You absolutely nailed the first post and that wasn't by chance.

Post about this if you can if you have the time and energy because I'm certainly not perfect myself in my understanding of it all.

You're exactly right.

It's often extremely difficult to accept that things aren't what we thought they were. It causes stress, anxiety, discomfort etc to do so and so a part of our brains want to stay happy and stress-free even if that means staying ignorant of imminent trouble coming.

I hate to sound cliche but an excellent metaphor is that it's just like a child sitting still and covering their eyes in the face of imminent danger instead of running/fighting/getting out of the way of it.

And you would have to do a lot of research too. Probably hundreds of hours. People just aren't going to do that.

You're right yet again and that's a big problem to overcome. (that's why Freemasonry is so damn successful - they have an easily-shared collective learning/plan/action)

The average person can't do the soul-searching thousands of hours long research like you and I and others have done.

That's a HUGE problem and question to overcome so how do we overcome that problem?

I don't have an answer to that. In that way I'm still just a child myself to this problem.

I think you have a gross misunderstanding what we were trying to accomplish that generation. The triangular diplomacy concept was very complicated. I would kindly ask you to research triangular diplomacy. You seem very qualified to put bias aside and take an alternative look.

The modernization of the worldโ€™s interconnected economy was exponentially exploding at that time. Itโ€™s hard for young people today to understand how grave a threat the USSR was to the west, and all other Capitalist nations. They wanted our wealth to share and would do anything to obtain it.

China was going to be a producer, either for them or us. Even with their adverse relationships, the USSR would have exploited China just as we did. We beat the USSR economically, and had we not have made that maneuver, they would have beat us economically. We would be communist by now.

The maneuver of them de-coupling didn't happen after the USSR breakdown. That was our plan, and the administrations of the mid-90s failed it.

Animosity towards our administration was created by decades of leftist having to tear down everything that we represented. When you see how massive of a landslide we won in the electoral college vote on our reelection, you can understand why the agenda against us had to begin. Please do not fall for it. Errors were made during every administration, ours was grossly exaggerated, and then the maneuvers we orchestrated have been highly misrepresented.

Especially the Vietnam criticisms, which also you should be able to look at from a different vantage point. Those criticisms are misrepresented more than anything else. We did not intentionally fail that mission. We corrected what was about to be a much bigger mistake.
The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer.

Now posting posthumous.
