Facebook Targeting Conservatives


Armstrong Economics Blog/Conspiracy Re-Posted Jul 5, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

It is very disgusting how these people have used their wealth to try to create a totalitarian form of government as long as they are at the top. Facebook is warning people now about conservatives who value the Constitution should be censored. Facebook feature warns users when they might have been exposed to extremist content or if they know someone who is becoming an extremist — prompting concerns it may target conservative voices and stifle free speech.

Γ ∂ N CONSƮANƮINЧS M, crowned bust of Constantine facing, wearing chlamys, holding globus cruciger and akakia.

However, the overthrow of the Constitution they consider to be the new “norm” and anyone who dares to resistance is an extremist. This reminds me of the Iconoclastic dispute in the Byzantine Empire. Leo III the Isaurian began the ban on Icons claiming that any image of Christ was to be outlawed. There were people dragged out and killed for their resistance. Leo’s most abusive legislative reforms involved the forced baptism of all Jews and Montanists in the empire in 722AD. He issued a series of edicts against the veneration of images (726–729AD) which became known as the Iconoclasm war (“icon-breaking,” therefore an iconoclast is an “icon-breaker”). This appears to have been a thinking process that was influenced by the rise of Islamic prohibitions against images.

History warns that this will turn to violence. People were killed for protecting icons. There are surviving sources that Constantine V, who followed Leo III, moved against monasteries, and threw relics into the sea. he outlaws any invocation of saints. He went as far as to order monks to parade in the Hippodrome arena, hand-in-hand with a woman, in violation of their vows. People died defining icons and in the second icon purge in 765 St Stephen the Younger was murdered who was considered a martyr to the Iconophile cause. They seized monasteries and ended all religion in such places forcing monks to flee to the fringe of the empire to escape imperial authority.

This anti-conservative is an uprising no different from the iconoclasts. They believe that there should be no images venerated – PERIOD! Today, this too is a religious cult. Instead of venerating images, they are against freedom of thought, wealth, and the right to pursue happiness which was once guaranteed by the Constitution.

The entire Iconoclastic movement came to an end only with the death of Theophilus (829-842AD). That movement failed, as will this current trend. Hitler too lost, but it was not without a cost. These people trying to change the world want to shut down anyone who disagrees with them and they have the audacity to call resistance extremists? Their hand are already stained with the blood of people they wanted dead denying reliable drugs just to increase their power using COVID.

Keeping the Balance

COMMENT: Civil unrest is defivately rising, your models are so good at looking far into the future!
With incidents like this, I really find it interesting reading public comments on social media are empathetic and typically left leaning.
I also find it interesting how ignorant the left are in not realizing that they are violating the “rights” of the right by oppressing their views.
I don’t know where this is going, or when it will end, but people in Canada are definitely polarizing and it’s instigated by our states media
Very happy to see that you are presenting information …… From both sides of the fence as neutral as it can be in these interesting times. Maybe the protesters on both sides will wake up and realize it’s the gov pulling our strings; as did Orwell in 1984.
N, BC, Canada

REPLY: It really is very important to stay neutral. It is absolutely critical to document what you have and to present it without the extreme ranting that so often emerges today. I know a number of people thought I was just a Trump supporter. Now some who criticized me have written to apologize and have now realized this is not a Trump v Biden crisis – this is a global agenda and Trump was just in the way.

We are entering the separatist phase. The civil unrest which is creating polarization is the very thing that leads to the separatist movement. I have been asked to write a book on how the parallels of the decline of Rome are alive and well today. I have been rushing to get this finished. They want this is stores rather than a report so more people will get to see it.

A Critique of mRNA Vaccines


Armstrong Economics Blog/Vaccine Re-Posted Jul 4, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

This is a reasonable 25-minute video on COVID-19 and the mRNA vaccine. Pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole discusses the virus & the vaccine including how it works & the spike protein impact. Also, he discusses the implications of vaccination for people who already have COVID-19 antibodies. The real question: why are governments mandating vaccines or pushing them? Have they just been bribed? There is no independent review standing between the companies and the people. That is our greatest problem — TRUST. Meanwhile, Twitter bans anyone for even claiming a family member died from the vaccine. This is really getting out of hand. Twitter should be shut down as an agent of propaganda. How will we ever get the truth with all this political censorship?

Bruce Lee’s daughter harshly criticized Quentin Tarantino for a scene in his movie, “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.” She said her father was stereotyped in fight scene with Brad Pitt. Tarantino acknowledge her right to criticize, but essentially told the other ‘woke’ critics to take a hike. This was the right thing to do, otherwise the criticism does not end and creativity is destroyed. 

I like Tarantino’s over-the-top revenge movies, but I disagree with the leftist director politically. Still, it’s good to see someone in Hollywood willing to stand up to the woke mob. Bill Maher is another who is pushing back against the humorless hectors who want to shut down comedy and creative freedom throughout America’s entertainment industry. The worst thing is what John Cena did. He delivered a disgusting, groveling, and sniveling apology to the communist Chinese simply because he called Taiwan a country. It is. 

The Chinese Communist Party has become instrumental in funding Hollywood studios and theaters. In exchange they demand editing rights over scripts. Naturally, they remove anything that does not portray the communist Chinese in the best possible light. They will not allow positive comments about the Taiwanese or Tibetans. Both Chinese and American audiences are subjected to Chinese propaganda in movies.

In 2012, the ChiComs successfully influenced a remake of the movie, ‘Red Dawn.’ The Chinese were the invaders in the second movie and the communists can’t stand to be shown as the bad guys. Hollywood didn’t want to lose the large and valuable Chinese audience, so the antagonist was changed to North Korea. The ChiComs still blocked the movie in their country anyway.

It’s not even ironic that China IS the country most likely to stage a ‘Red Dawn’ invasion in America. In fact, it’s already happening. China promotes division in the USA while stealing our military and corporate secrets. They helped the Democrats steal the election for Biden. Their spies are everywhere—in our military, security agencies, Congress, and especially in our colleges. The Chinese are using political correctness and ’woke-ism’ to destroy what’s left of American culture. They especially want to do away with our Second Amendment.

The Chicoms want the USA to self-destruct. This will allow them to invade and take over more easily. China Joe is closely following that script

Give Me Liberty of Give Me Death


Armstrong Economics Blog/Opinion Re-Posted Jul 3, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT:  Distrust of public health officials may be a major factor in people refusing to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Nearly a third of Americans believe officials are lying about vaccine safety, a number that rises to almost two-thirds among those who say they don’t intend to get vaccinated against the coronavirus.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 32% of American Adults believe public health officials are lying about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines. Forty-eight percent (48%) don’t think so, while 20% are not sure.

SB

REPLY: This is what is emerging. When politics crossed the line and tried to use COVID to create climate lockdowns and bring in the Great Reset, they lost all credibility. I do not care if people start dropping dead on the street. I will not get one of these vaccines. They can shoot me, and I would say thank you. Fully Vaccinated people are still dying. Six fully vaccinated just died of COVID in the most vaccinated country.

I cherish my liberty and without it, I prefer death. I have been to communist states. I went behind the Berlin Wall before it fell. I have seen the nightmare that awaits when the left gets control. No thank you! These people cheering the left have no idea that to target the rich that they hate so much, they themselves will surrender all their freedom as well. Absolute delusional fools. You cannot tax only billionaires without everyone proving they are not a billionaire. The burden of proof is always on you. They don’t bother to tell you that.

A number of people have written in suggesting we ban together and buy an island. That may be a good hedge against the insanity of these people. They have no idea what the Revolution was all about or what inspired the words of Patrick Henry – give me liberty or give me death. There are some things that are worth fighting for. What Babylon Bee put out is funny, but sadly becoming reality.

They Lack Charisma


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Jul 2, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: I agree. It seems that they are trying to use Jan 6th for support and make conservatives the enemy.  However, are they succeeding?  They certainly do not have anyone that is a charismatic speaker.  It seems despite the media’s attempt at making this a big deal, that at least half the population is not buying it.

This must be part of how they are failing.  Maybe they should have tried pulling this off when Obama was in office?

C

REPLY: They lack the charismatic person for their venture. I do not see Gates, Schwab, or anyone else with that charismatic nature. They said Hitler could really bring out the emotion in people and appealed to their patriotism. We have Schumer and Pelosi trying that approach, but they do not have what t takes. Of all the leaders I met, I would have to say Bill Clinton has that spark of charisma.

White House Brags July 4th Groceries Cheaper This Year, We Will Save 16 Cents on Our Cookouts


Posted originally o the conservative tree house on July 2, 2021 | Sundance | 479 Comments

This is not a spoof.   This is an actual broadcast from the White House Twitter account.  Apparently the Biden administration has hired the same public relations firm used by North Korea to manage their messaging:

Yes comrades, pay no attention to the actual receipts you receive from the local grocery store. Please ignore massive price increases in food you might be experiencing at the supermarket.  These things are simply illusions.  Despite the official inflation records on food pricing provided by the U.S. government, Bureau of Labor and Statistics [SEE HERE, Table 7], according to those who control the oval office our food is actually cheaper this year.

Comrades, we must appreciate the efforts of the Democrat People’s Republic of Krazy (DPRK) and congratulate the Biden administration for achieving a record-breaking new level of absurdity in the distribution of propaganda.  Smiles everyone, smiles…. you saved 16 cents.

On a serious note, this extreme level of gaslighting only highlights how the White House must be very concerned about what is about to happen to them in the next election cycle.  Even the most devout leftists are calling out the Biden administration in response to this tweet.  [Go Look At The Comments]

Even Baghdad Blitzer cannot pull this con off….

Is Hitler the Model Today?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Civil Unrest Re-Posted Jul 2, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Ironically, Hitler is the model. He turned the people against the Jews, not because they were Jewish, but he targeted the Jewish bankers first as the rich. Then that was extended down to business owners and eventually just get them all. It began as CLASS WARFARE and Hitler understood the value of language. Hitler was a highly charismatic speaker who could move crowds with his words. He knew how to do it better than anyone before him.

Yet, Hitler knew very well the value of propaganda which he elevated to a very significant role in his rise to power. Let us not forget that what happened in Germany on February 27, 1933, was an attempt by him to win over people to his party as the victim of Communists who wanted to join Russia. The Reichstag went up in flames from an alleged arson attack by Communists. This justified the entire Nazi movement and it worked.

This video of the Capitol Siege clearly shows there were government agents involved and the people were yelling at them for their clandestine acts. We hear no word about that. Only civilians went to jail. There is evidence that there were other operatives of the government involved using the people as cover. The Democrats ignore that and it will never be exposed.

The Democrats are doing the very same thing as Hitler with imprisoning 450 people for entering Capitol Hill, taking selfies, and calling it an armed revolution even though the FBI confirmed there were no weapons found. Pelosi and Schumer lied called it an armed insurrection. They even appointed Liz Cheney to their committee who is a Trump hater because her father manipulated Bush to create the Iraq War. There is so much blood on her family’s hands it is sickening. This is the woman to defend the government? January 6th was another false flag. (see also: false flags in history)

The Reichstag was staged and Hitler played on the equality of the Marxists and paid lip service to the left by adopting the name National Socialist German Workers’ Party. He was not a “Socialist,” but he manipulated them into supporting his agenda. Klaus Schwab is doing this right now with his World Economic Forum, preaching “equality” to get all the leftists to support a totalitarian regime. The youth think it is good to cancel people and to censor free speech because they are wrong.

Inside the World Economic Forum, they have ZERO tolerance for error. This same level of intolerance will be applied to this new world order they are pushing upon the world. Make no mistake about it, they have studied the tactics of Hitler. They are not planning to kill all the Jews, but they want to control everything and reduce the population as a whole.

At the Nuremberg trials, Field Marshall Hermann Wilhelm Göring (1893–1946) explained why the people followed Hitler.

 “Why, of course, the people don’t want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don’t want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood.

But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship.

With respect to a Democracy they argued, the people have some say in the matter through their elected representatives, and in the United States, only Congress can declare wars.

Göring replied: “Oh, that is all well and good, but, voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.”
