We are living in a world where our own governments have declared war on us. And most people haven’t even noticed

The absurd and pointless sanctions imposed on Russia will cause far more deaths in the UK and the EU than the fighting in Ukraine will kill.

The huge rise in energy costs is going to force millions to turn their heating off. Economies which were struggling to recover from the pointless and destructive lockdowns will slide back into a long-term prescribed decline. The widespread and massive increase in prices will result in roaring inflation, interest rate hikes and massive, unending poverty.

And, I repeat, the sanctions imposed on Russia will cause more deaths in Western Europe than they will cause deaths in Russia and they will cause more deaths in the UK alone than the so-called war in Ukraine will cause in that country.

It’s war.

But the war was declared on us by the people whom the innocent and the naive think of as running our governments. Actually, the conspirators declared war on us years ago. And the people whom we think are in charge are controlled by the billionaire conspirators.

Covid was merely the most notable salvo in a war we are destined to lose unless we can learn to pull together and ignore the propaganda and the treacherous mainstream media. If we do lose, it will be because we are divided, obsessed with trivia, don’t follow the big picture and are constantly weakened by the incessant whining and aimless chuntering of the trolls.

Just look around at what is already happening.

Inflation is about to fly into the stratosphere.

Innocent and ignorant people assume that inflation is something that only really affects countries such as Argentina or Zimbabwe. It doesn’t. Inflation in Germany was a major contributory factor behind World War II, and in the 1980s inflation in America went over 20%. In the UK, interest rates hit 17% and home buyers were delighted if they could borrow money at a mere 15%. I suspect that if inflation got anywhere near to that level there would be ten million British families finding themselves on the street – homeless and penniless.

You will own nothing and be happy. Remember?

And, of course, throwing Russian property buyers out of London will inevitably lead to a housing market crash. That’ll push even more people into losing their homes.

You will own nothing and be happy.

The energy price rises deliberately caused by government policies will mean those figures will double in the next twelve months. That’s not a wild prediction; it’s a dark black promise. Check out my track record on www.vernoncoleman.com As long as you ignore the insane mumblings of the mathematical modellers it’s not difficult to work out what will happen next.

And it is already clear that high food prices and broken supply chains will mean that hundreds of millions more will starve to death in Africa. No one, not even Black Lives Matter, seems to give a damn about that.

No one ever asked the public if they were prepared to impoverish themselves – or die – to make a rather pathetic and ineffective point to the Russians.

Russia doesn’t want its war to be over quickly. Putin can see that his war is doing far more damage to the West than to Russia itself.

And yet, as with the climate change fraud and the covid fraud, commitment to these absurd sanctions has been global. Numerous companies are giving in to pressure from tiny but noisy groups on social media and have severed all ties with Russia. Shareholders have not been asked if they agree with what is being done in their names, though in a number of cases the damage done to the companies involved will be catastrophic and possibly terminal.

The real victims will be today’s and tomorrow’s pensioners who will be severely impoverished by this gratuitous virtue signalling arranged by company chiefs anxious to be well regarded on social media and well rewarded in the next honours list.

Most wars seem to start for petty reasons but the people are usually manipulated into supporting them. Conflicts are created to satisfy some requirement of those in charge. The requirements can always be summed up in two words: power and money. Wars often seem to start for no good reason; often over minor diplomatic incidents. Britain and Spain started a war in 1739 after a Captain Robert Jenkins appeared before a House of Commons committee and showed what was left of the ear which was allegedly cut off by Spanish coastguards in 1738. The Franco-Prussian War of 1870 began after the Prussian chancellor deliberately provoked the French into declaring war.

The carefully designed war currently being fought was triggered by the West and no one would give a damn about it if the media hadn’t been paid to promote it and build up the outrage. As Sun Tzu said: ‘All warfare is based on deception.’ War these days is always a media event. The Americans won every battle in Vietnam but somehow managed to lose the war. The Viet Kong consulted Sun Tzu so maybe that gave them an unfair advantage.

The fake pandemic was scripted, packaged and produced by professionals. And this so-called war is no different. It’s ‘Wag the Dog’ again. The billionaire conspirators are conducting their war with neat precision; manipulating the compliant, liberal, leftie luvvies with terrifying skill.

Sun Tzu said a lot of things but try this one: ‘The strategy of positioning evades reality and confronts through illusion.’ He knew what he was talking about, that Sun Tzu. As with the covid illusion we are forced to confront a tactical trick designed to keep us at a disadvantage because we are fighting something that doesn’t exist, cannot be defined and when it does appear to exist is constantly changing.

Everywhere you look the virtue signallers are busy showing us how wonderful they are. All around the world Russians are being isolated and punished for the sin of being Russian.

Soprano Anna Netrebko withdrew from the Metropolitan Opera rather than repudiate her support for her country’s leader – a certain Vladimir Putin. Funny, I hadn’t noticed that the US was at war with Russia. And the career of conductor Valery Gergiev also seems to have collapsed for the same reason. Tennis players and other athletes are isolated and pushed into impossible situations by thousands of flag waving indignant journalists who are, I suspect, waving flags because they’ve been told to do so.

In Wales, the Cardiff Philharmonic orchestra cancelled a Tchaikovsky night of music because Tchaikovsky, who died around 130 years ago, was born in Russia and may have visited Ukraine on his holidays. Perhaps he was spying for Putin. This has to be the most utterly stupid example of virtue signalling I have ever come across. Virtue signalling is now probably taught in schools.

Chelsea football club, which has the misfortune to be owned by a Russian, is under all sorts of bizarre restrictions (like not being allowed to sell tickets to supporters or to sell food to those with season tickets). Bizarrely, however, other big football clubs which are owned by people most of us wouldn’t like to invite to tea are allowed to continue their activities unhindered. Last Saturday, the 12th of March, for example, Chelsea played Newcastle United which seems to be owned by people from Saudi Arabia. Readers will remember that it is alleged that citizens of Saudi Arabia killed a journalist from the Washington Post who criticised the country. The United States intelligence agencies confirmed that the Saudi crown prince approved the murder of the journalist. Oh, and Saudi Arabia’s military intervention in Yemen has created what the United Nations calls `the worst humanitarian crisis in the world’. There may be people who wonder why Chelsea is considered `bad’ but Newcastle United is considered `good’.

Celebrities and virtue signallers everywhere put pressure on governments to do more to help the people of Ukraine. The British Government responded to these bleatings from Schwab’s collaborators by offering £350 a month of taxpayers’ money to people who take immigrants from Ukraine into their homes. The irony is that if the hundreds of celebrities expressing their concern had paid the taxes they probably owe, the entire population of Ukraine could be put up in five star hotels.

You can see what will happen, can’t you? Crooks will cram 12 Ukranian exiles into a terraced house in Wolverhampton or Salford and claim 12 x £350 a month.

There are oddities, inconsistencies and mysteries everywhere you look.

When the oil price went up the value of British oil shares went down. This bizarre contradiction was a consequence of the fact that big investment companies have been frightened away from oil companies by woke, global warming cultists (the sort who like to glue themselves to roads to delay ambulances). Inevitably, pensioners, whose funds are probably still heavily invested in the big oil companies, will be the ones to suffer most.

The billionaire conspirators, now terribly close to victory, will be delighted to know that over a million Ukraine citizens are now displaced persons. The conspirators will be pleased by the pain, the cost and the chaos this will cause. Individuals from Ukraine are now allowed to travel all over Europe – even though two thirds of them are wise enough not to have received a single covid-19 jab. Doesn’t that rather blow a large hole in the rules restricting the movements of the unjabbed?

I bet you that on hearing this, the Bilderbergers ordered another dozen crates of champagne for their next shindig. In Germany, citizens have been told to pack essentials (including medicines) into a bag so that they can leave home quickly if necessary.

And with all media eyes fixed on the third great fraud of the last two years (the other two, of course, being the climate change fraud and the covid-19 fraud) all sorts of bizarre and oppressive laws are being quietly introduced.

It is now illegal to stare at someone in London. Anyone seeing someone staring is ordered to report such incidents to the authorities. It will, therefore, now be illegal to stare into space, to try to read someone’s T-shirt or to admire a hat.

A publication called `The Independent’ ran an article entitled ‘What happens when you get your period during a war?’ You couldn’t make that up, could you?

The seemingly insane woman who apparently owns Scotland allegedly wants us to start shooting down planes flying over Ukraine. This would obviously result in the start of World War III and I can only assume that she will receive extra points from Schwab et al for promoting this lunacy. This is the woman who lives in one of the coldest countries in Europe but doesn’t want fossil fuels, fracking or nuclear power. And probably doesn’t want people burning peat either.

The masked hordes who still fill our shops and streets appear to have lost what little brain tissue they once had. I entered a supermarket the other day and saw a long queue waiting at one till. Everyone in the queue was wearing a mask. None of them seemed to have noticed that there were two other tills open – both with staff members waiting quietly and with nothing to do.

This is not surprising.

The low oxygen levels caused by their masks had doubtless reduced their capacity for rational thought.

And the covid-19 jabs have, of course, also damaged their brains.

Could the jabbed zombies now be responding to subliminal messages telling them to put their masks back on?

Nothing is now impossible.

The conspirators are following a playbook built on propaganda. The fraudulent war will mean more laws and more restrictions. Thousands of un-jabbed Ukranians wandering across Europe will give the conspirators a chance to boost covid numbers and re-introduce lockdowns.

We are living in a world that could have been invented by Lewis Carroll.

We are living in a world where our own governments have declared war on us.

And most people haven’t even noticed.

We need to remain constantly aware and suspicious.

Eternal paranoia is the price of freedom

THE NEW TYPE OF NON- CONSCIOUS INTELLIGENCE DRIVEN BY NON-CONSCIOUS ALGORITHMS IS GOING TO DESTROY WHAT IS LEFT OF DECENCY IN THE WORLD

 The idea that humans will always have a unique ability beyond the reach of non-conscious algorithms is just wishful thinking.

The fact is, as time goes by it will be easier and easier to replace humans with computer algorithms, not because they are getting smarter and smarter but because humans are professionalising.

One would have to say are we all such naive bonkers that we are going to allow algorithms dictate our lives.

The answer so far appears to be yes. We are going to become militarily and economically useless.

Technical difficulties or political objections might slow down the algorithmic invasion of the job market but while the systems might need humans, it will not need individuals.

These systems will make most of the important decisions depriving individuals of their authority and freedom.

They are already assembling humans into dividuals ie. humans are becoming an assemblage of many different algorithms lacking a single inner voice or a single self.

Its time we realized that if we continue down this path allowing large corporations platforms to introduce algorithms willy nilly with no overall vetting as to whether they comply with our values we will be replacing the voter, the consumer, and the beholder.

The Al algorithm will know best, will always be right, and beauty will be in the calculation of the algorithm. Individualism will collapse and authority will shift from individual humans to autonomous networks.

People will not see themselves as individuals but as collections of biochemical mechanisms that are constantly monitored and guided by a network of electronic algorithms.

We are already crossing the line. Most of us use Apps without any thought whatsoever.

You might say that every age has its organizing principles.

The nineteenth century had the novel, and the twentieth had TV; in our more modern times, they come and go more quickly than ever—on Web 1.0 it was the website, for example, and a few years later, for 2.0, it was the app.

And now, another shift is underway:

Today’s organizing principle is the algorithm. (Though you could productively argue that our new lingua franca will either be artificial intelligence or virtual reality.)

Algorithms rule the modern world, silent workhorses aligning data sets and systematizing the world. They’re everywhere, in everything, and you wouldn’t know unless you looked. For some of the most powerful companies in the world—Google, Facebook, etc.—they’re also closely held secrets, the most valuable intellectual property a company owns. 

Perhaps it is naïve to believe algorithms should be neutral? but it’s also deceptive to advance the illusion that Facebook and the algorithms that power it are bias-free.

They are not neutral.

Facebook is intended to be the home of what the world is talking about. Their business model depends on it, even if that’s an impossible goal. As such, with now well over a billion users, and still growing, it’s worth asking:

What role should Facebook play in shaping public discourse? And just how transparent should it be?

After all, Facebook is mind-boggling massive.

It accounts for a huge portion of traffic directed to news sites; small tweaks in its own feed algorithm can have serious consequences for media companies’ bottom lines.

What can be done? ( See previous posts)

Evolution will continue and will need to do so if we humans are to exist.

We therefore should welcome all technology that enhances our chances of this existence in as far that it equates to human values.

All Algorithms that violate these values for the sake of profit or power should be destroyed.

After all if humans have no soul and if thoughts, emotions, and sensations are just biochemical algorithms why can’t biology account for all the vagaries of human societies.?

If Donald Trump is the best that twitter Algorithms can produce it appears to me that there is a long way to go and it’s not too late to change course.

WITH THE OUTBRAKE OF WAR IN THE UKRAIN THIS IS NOT THE TIME FOR THE REST OF US IN THE WORLD TO CLOSE OUR EYES AND GO ASLEEP

 The war will have many far-reaching consequences, most of which we can’t predict yet. It is not mature enough to cause a major market crash which is an unfortunate possibility.

Apart from weapon manufacturing companies like Raytheon and Lockheed Martin — who are openly telling their investors that tensions between the countries are good for business, there will be what I call Scap other companies making profiteering where the sun does not shine. 

So we need a list of these companies TO EXPOSE them and BOYCOTT them.

For now, the sanctions imposed on Russia are not targeting energy. But that can change if the conflict evolves further. ( IT HAS JUST BEEN ANNOUNCED AS I WRITE THIS POST THAT THE USA/EUROPEAN UNION/AND BRITAIN ARE TO STOP PURCHASING RUSSIAN OIL AND GAS.) 

RUSSIAN CRUDE IS HEAVY OIL. AS SUCH IT CAN NOT TO REPLACED WITH OIL FROM OTHER SOURCES AS MOST REFINERIES IN EUROPE ARE SET UP TO HANDLE HEAVY OIL TO PRODUCE PETROL. 

Of about five million barrels of crude oil Russia exports each day, more than half of that goes to Europe.  Russian gas accounts for about 40% of the EU’s natural gas imports.

In the meantime the other wars – Afghanistan – Ethiopia – Yemen – Syria – South Sudan –  Israel/Palestine  – Equality vs Equity – Covid – all but ignored. 

There are 10 official wars and 8 active military conflicts recognized by the United States.  Everyone requires the same level of sanctions which are now to be applied to Russia. 

                                            —————————–

We already have an ever-growing list of companies taking action against Russia with “Collateral Damage” to all of us so the opportunity to hike prices by blaming the war is yet to be seen.

Large corporations will no doubt capitalize on anti-war sentiments, the same is doubly true for oil companies, banks, and energy.

Doesn’t it make you feel good knowing that these multi-billion dollar corporations will be able to cash in on the death of thousands of innocent Ukrainians?  

The fact that advertisers have to use the values of our movement to sell us products reflects just how strong our anti-war struggle has become.

This gobbledegook is the kind of thing that corporations pay tens of thousands of pounds for.

So let’s start with THE EDF. 

French nuclear stations are the backbone of the European power system, and the outages have contributed to higher power prices across the continent along with the wider gas supply crisis.

Here is an 85% state-owned company that has had a monopoly for years on energy squandering billions in the public funds now increasing the price of electricity by 54% coming in April amid a cost of living crisis as inflation and food costs rise.

EDF Energy was compelled to help out as a swathe of energy suppliers collapsed in the U.K., getting paid 168 million pounds to take on more than 200,000 domestic customers from failed providers. In total, the company added more than 650,000 residential accounts last year.

It was fined £6m by Ofgem for sending “misleading signals” to the National Grid about how much electricity its power plants could generate. The energy regulator found that for more than two years, EDF frequently inflated the minimum amount of power that it said its West Burton B generator plant could supply.

While EDF normally generates the bulk of its electricity from its network of 56 nuclear reactors across France, many are near the end of their 40-year lifespans and around a dozen have been shut or will be soon to carry out safety inspections over corrosion risk.

Much of the £20bn construction cost of the new EDF nuclear plant Hinkley Point C nuclear plant in southwest England in 2026, will be funded by the addition of £1 a month to consumer bills applied through a mechanism currently making its way through parliament.

This is what is to come.  EDF the energy price cap on certain deals is rising by 54% a year.  The price cap is not an absolute limit on your bills.

The sheer scale of these energy bill increases will cause real concern and fear for families and households. 

                                        —————————

“Successive governments have welcomed the oligarchs and their money with open arms, providing them with a means of recycling illicit finance through the London ‘laundromat’, and connections at the highest levels with access to UK companies and political figures.

For example 

Lubov Chernukhin is a Russian banker and married to Putin’s former finance minister. She has spent a fortune buying time with politicians, including £160,000 to play tennis with David Cameron and Boris Johnson. She paid £135,000 for “a night out with Theresa May”. The most recent donations—last quarter—to the Tory party include £80,000 from Chernukhin.

                                    ————————-

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is casting a pall over neighboring countries, with war jitters spurring panic-buying of gasoline, cash shortages, energy price hicks, etc. 

After reading about the greed and hypocrisy of all these corporations I bet I know what you are thinking. You are going to reject all this consumerism and get yourself a Stop the War Coalition T-shirt. Am I right?

If so, is it a case of subliminal advertising? Or is it the power of one of the largest political movements this country has ever seen? You decide.

Today, Russia provides 10% of the world’s oil. Do you want to make that oil worthless?

Show Putin, you don’t need it. That’s what accelerating the transition to a clean energy future will do.
