Tucker released a series of powerful interviews recently. Is the stranglehold on information and freedom of expression finally being revealed to the public at large?
Starting with the Dems, since I was one for so long, I was surprised at how many of my leftwing friends never Questioned Authority when the CDC said a terrible Covid pandemic had arrived and, later, how indignant they were about people who refused the mRNA shots. Their denial was impervious to information about our marvelous natural immunity that, nevertheless, needs some tending (i.e. very good nutrition, making sure to be much more replete in vitamin D than the FDA feeble standards, etc). And currently, their denial is even greater than ever about the irrefutable, incredibly high rate of All Cause Deaths, as if they think it’s a character flaw to admit they were conned. Of course they were conned! By expert manipulators! (A big reason I could see it was that I’ve been a health nut for decades and had long ago learned to see through the claims of government agencies that are controlled by Big Ag and Big Junk Food and Big Pharma.)
Similarly, but with different excuses for their huffy anger, my Republican friends easily blame BLM, gay marriage, critical race theory, Pro Choice “baby murderers,” and/or immigrants for the ills of society. Really?! Black people or LGBTQ people have no legitimate complaints about structural bias and opportunities denied based on racist, sexist, or snobby stereotypes? A lima-bean size ball of cells matters more than a low-paid single mother of 4 or a college student whose birth control failed? We documented citizens don’t have any immigrants in our family tree? (These are why I couldn't just switch parties, hence I'm a Decline to State voter.)
Both “sides” have been fired up by canny newsmakers as being true patriots while the other side is heartless. Could fomenting strife be party leaders’ universal strategy for getting more campaign donation$ whenever their respective base$ are furiou$ at their opponent$?
Doesn’t that fury close the door to civil debates about how to cooperate in solving the many problems we face today?
Both sides are shooting themselves in the foot if they listen to their “leaders” (whether it’s the DNC or MAGA groups) because neither group has a clear majority. We need each other. Two MINORITIES can become one MAJORITY and get the changes that the 1% so effectively (and invisibly) blocks at every turn.
We need to listen to uncomfortable ideas with open minds, assuming the good intentions of our neighbors and relatives who disagree with us.
Step one: let’s quit the name-calling and put downs.
As you are coming from the left & trying to be centrist & seek allies on both sides, please read more & take time to think about topics you have assumed are beneficial / perfectly understandable as a Dems supporter. You haven't understood the conservative's objections at all only scolded them for having these opinions. James Lindsay's Discourses yt channel is a good place for starting to understand the academic marxist underpinnings of CRT.
As a long time subscriber, this is one of your best pieces. We have all been had, it appears. The more voices that see that, one hopes the better for us all. Thanks for writing this.
Tucker is performing some of the most valuable journalism on the planet now. Truth movements make strange bedfellows. Tucker and Russell have very different politics, no doubt, but they are comrades in the most important battles we’ve fighting now. I have to take Russell in small doses, I must say, but he and Tucker are both heroic light workers in my view. I have no idea what Pinchbeck is talking about, to be honest. Maybe psychedelics aren’t the answer for everyone.
It’s great to see Carlson & Brand’s brave stances and the large viewership they have: 200 million and 6 million+! NPR and NY Times, once favorites, have shown themselves during the pandemic as propaganda rags for the war machine, big Pharma and security state. I love Carlson, Brand’s and your perspectives and truth telling in the face of all the propaganda. It’s nice to have the meaning making. Love most of the comments you get, plus there’s a few dissembling/hing missing ones that keep it from being a big mushy love fest. Thanks as always!
I appreciate that Tucker is willing to go some places that no one else with his media reach will venture. He is part of the independent media rebellion, which I support with enthusiasm. But I can't help wishing his intellect were a little bigger and his ego a little smaller. He was intellectually outclassed by Putin. It was clear he hadn't done his homework. Putin's knowledge of the history of the Russia-Ukraine relationship was scholarly, and Tucker didn't know enough to balance his one-sided history. There is a reason that the Ukrainians hate the Russians, but Tucker never once mentioned the word Holodomor. Even on US political history, Putin seemed to have deeper knowledge than Carlson. I'm glad to see Putin's perspective presented to the American public, but the interview could have been even better.
I appreciate your reference to Holodomor. The distinction between the Soviet Union and today's Russia is hardly drawn distinctly enough in political commentary.
And thanks for leading me to find Pyotr Wrangel's "Always With Honor" -- I'll definitely hunt up this important book. Wrangel's description of his encounter with Romanov family members wearing red ribbons of sympathy for the Bolsheviks is something I have not heard of anywhere else.
These two guys - Brand and Carlson - get it. And this statement, “It seems to me that authoritarianism now is being deliberately veiled in an insidious language of care, concern, safety and convenience," describes exactly what has been going on in Canada under Justin Trudeau's Liberals.
Outstanding article by itself and it's fascinating how much discussion is shown in the comments. We so very much need people to discuss this serious information now. Thank you.
Brand is upper levels of the peerage. Related to at least 6 dukes. He also performed for the queen. Only cousins are allowed to perform for her. So he’s higher up in that Jewish phonetian chain
Of course. They have been push this divine feminine agenda. She’s from Hawaii ironically. I don’t doubt your assertion. Either way it’s irrelevant. She’s is just another actor like the rest of the asshats. They control nothing. The nwo has already conquered the world ld and has been running it. Only now they want us eliminated.
In response to energy. I know people who work in coal and nuke plants. And they do waste a tremendous amount of energy. I can tell you they have been shutting down these plants. And some of them are not even a year old. I don’t really know oil people. But they are heavily pushing this carbon sequestration. And I do mean heavily. It will destroy land. Destroy the micro flora content and produce dead soil. And since all data online is mostly fabricated bs. How do we know oil reserves are dried up? I think they want new tech new players to burn more of our money. Solar only generates like 20-29% energy. Rest is displaced as heat. Honestly. It just all sounds like a death cult. All this green tech is incredibly destructive. Again I don’t discredit your theory. I just wish I knew someone in oil. Bc that seems to be the only way to get the truth today. All data is compromised
Truthfully. I don’t disagree. A lot of that is over my head but I do know what they are doing in medicine and farming. This new CRISPR tech allows them to control us all. Just by inserting a chip or more than likely nanotechnology. So perhaps they want us all controlled. I won’t be a part of their collapse. I’m too skilled. And truthfully the future is dismal so if I perish so be it. However I do have to say it goes beyond all that. These psycho all subscribe to the author Alice P Bailey. Her books are published via lucis trust. (Get it). I think there is more to this story or world than we understand truthfully.
From what I can see Russell Brand’s focus has been on the medical freedom movement. “MAGA” doesn’t seem like the right label for that. Trump still brags about pushing C19 vax approvals through. And “shills” generally don’t get targeted by the media for smear campaigns.
What if it's all of the above depending on where you stand at any given time? What if both "sides" are up to the same dirty tricks and those of us without the time, energy or attention to dig deeply into issues are being hoodwinked regularly? What if some on both sides are guilty of said hoodwinking and some are not? What if there's no coordinated meta-conspiracy or even a couple, but many scared people with power trying to hold onto it casting sticky nets of glamour that make it difficult if not impossible to know what "truths" are real and which are fabricated?
It's never one thing or another but a combination of factors, just like there's never one good guy and one bad guy. If you write a story with a good guy and a bad guy and one is pure evil and one is pure goodness, everyone knows it's not true becuase that's not how life works, so why do we expect it to go that way and get all bent out of shape because people act badly when they're frightened and when they have a lot of power the ripple effect of their bad behavior spreads far and wide?
Most people think they're "good" and doing the right thing most of the time. "But I'm a good person" has to be one of the most common statements made by people who've done wrong and can't figure out why they're in trouble.
Recently I saw a poll (and I have no way of knowing how true it is) showing the number of people who think it would be ok to cheat to win an election. The number on both sides (R&D) was similar. If true, both sides are so terrified of losing that they can't be trusted.
I used to argue with my mother about the bible. She's a hard right Catholic and I have a background in languages and linguistics. I'd beat my head against a wall trying to show her "the truth" about the texts she would stake her life on that she believes are The Truth by revealing multiple possible translations. Language itself is problematic. I'm not trying to prove any points here about who's right or wrong or telling the truth or obscuring it. We all do all it. We're just in a time now where we get it that much, if not all of what we're told is spun to try and get us to believe what will help one side or the other retain or reclaim power.
Oh boy... I think we're pretty much on the same page. I don't think anything is stable about now and for the next few years.
Astrologically speaking, Pluto entered Aquarius earlier this year and will regress back into Capricorn from early September through mid-November (note - election timing). Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008-2009. If you think back through those years, you'll note that this coincides with the dismantling of structures that we once held as the bedrock of our society. These are Capricornian structures and Pluto brings profound transformative changes and challenges. "He" (think mythologically here) rules everything hidden and taboo, the unconscious and subconscious, power, compulsions, primal drives and deep psychological processes. "His" role is to expose and highlight abuses of power, corruption, secrets, taboo topics etc... all that dark material that those in control want to conceal. That process is almost finished in Capricorn... we'll see the last hurrah around the election.
The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was over 200 years ago, but historically, Pluto in Aquarius has brought up themes of collective fracturing and decentering that correlate with revolutions which break down the centralized power of the monarchy and church, and transformation of human consciousness that shifted the Earth from being the center of the universe to the sun and the heliocentric model. Pluto in Aquarius will push us to allow for the death of ideals when we reach a state of clinging to them too tightly, and to be open to shifting idealistic visions to align with the ways in which the world and reality are actually changing.
And that's just one of the indicators that we're in a critical time of change. Neptune and Saturn meet up at 0° Aries (the initiatory point in the zodiac - marks the spring equinox in the N. Hemisphere) in early 2026, which is the beginning of a whole new cycle between these two planets who only come together once every 35-36 years (most recently in 1989 - think about the dissolution of the USSR. This cycle has been an important one in Russian history). Uranus will move into Gemini in 2026 and the US has always been at war during the transit of Uranus in Gemini (this doesn't mean I think we're in for a hot war then but it doesn't not mean that either). I could go on, but I think this answers your question reasonably well.
I wasn't trying to concluded anything in my post above - just asking questions because I feel like with all the conspiracy theories flying around (and I'm not saying they're wrong), I feel like it's important to respond to what's in front of us individually and collectively (ie just the fact ma'am) rather than make up stories that fit with our biases and then act on them. We just don't know a lot of things and a lot of people are throwing information around as if it's concretely factual when it seems to be true.
PS Part of my reason for writing this was to remind myself. I'm the first to admit that a good conspiracy theory makes my mouth water... and I've taken myself down many a dark rabbit hole.
People looooove their breads and circuses. First of all tucker is cia. And brand has at least 6 dukes in his peerage. He is extremely high up in that royal family phonetian line. He is controlled op. Nothing either of these 2 parasites say can be trusted. Things aren’t going to change people till you start waking up and getting a clue as to what lies we live under. But all you people do is watch your bogus tell lie vision programming
What do I think? Thanks for asking.
Starting with the Dems, since I was one for so long, I was surprised at how many of my leftwing friends never Questioned Authority when the CDC said a terrible Covid pandemic had arrived and, later, how indignant they were about people who refused the mRNA shots. Their denial was impervious to information about our marvelous natural immunity that, nevertheless, needs some tending (i.e. very good nutrition, making sure to be much more replete in vitamin D than the FDA feeble standards, etc). And currently, their denial is even greater than ever about the irrefutable, incredibly high rate of All Cause Deaths, as if they think it’s a character flaw to admit they were conned. Of course they were conned! By expert manipulators! (A big reason I could see it was that I’ve been a health nut for decades and had long ago learned to see through the claims of government agencies that are controlled by Big Ag and Big Junk Food and Big Pharma.)
Similarly, but with different excuses for their huffy anger, my Republican friends easily blame BLM, gay marriage, critical race theory, Pro Choice “baby murderers,” and/or immigrants for the ills of society. Really?! Black people or LGBTQ people have no legitimate complaints about structural bias and opportunities denied based on racist, sexist, or snobby stereotypes? A lima-bean size ball of cells matters more than a low-paid single mother of 4 or a college student whose birth control failed? We documented citizens don’t have any immigrants in our family tree? (These are why I couldn't just switch parties, hence I'm a Decline to State voter.)
Both “sides” have been fired up by canny newsmakers as being true patriots while the other side is heartless. Could fomenting strife be party leaders’ universal strategy for getting more campaign donation$ whenever their respective base$ are furiou$ at their opponent$?

The old divide & rule tactic just keeps on keepin' on...thanks for articulating my life-long observations 😉

Tucker speaks to the denial held by many, because they can't handle the truth. That's the compassionate view. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOs3DGD_D1o
They won't admit the truth, even when they're about to die.
Thank you Justin for putting this in. I enjoyed the serious humour that has the strength to look at the real mess we are looking to clean up.
Many Thanks for your reference to this helpful talk by Carlson.
And thanks for leading me to find Pyotr Wrangel's "Always With Honor" -- I'll definitely hunt up this important book. Wrangel's description of his encounter with Romanov family members wearing red ribbons of sympathy for the Bolsheviks is something I have not heard of anywhere else.

Tucker is just another tentacle of the PR Team that provides us with the matrix.
Please elaborate. I am curious. Why would they put Tucker up to telling the truth?
See 'Limited Hang Out'

Judging by his photo, I would say Pinchbeck is always either drunk or hung over.
