7 Steps to Tyranny—Killing the Internet Softly
Does anyone reading this remember the growth of the Nazi movement in Germany in the 1930's? It was patriotic. It was inspiring. It was okay what they were doing. It wasn't so bad. It only hurt a few who probably deserved it anyway. It created a little conflict, but only to right a few wrongs from the previous world war. It was a necessary evil to ensure that Germany would survive in the future. It proved to be a sobering necessity to strengthen Germany's standing in the world. My God! How could it come to another world war?
It started as patriotic, but ended as a sobering necessity that descended into oblivion. Could it ever happen again? Would anyone care if it was happening right now?
Why would anyone ever want to kill the Internet? Control, that's why. Restrict freedoms, step-by-step, until any opposition becomes impossible. But you do it in a way that seems reasonable (at first)—like the reasonableness of the Patriot Act or the TSA. Then make everyone dependent on one source for everything. Sound like a sinister, Orwellian world?
Believe it or not, it has been happening for the last century. The forces of evil have been gathering steam.
Would you have accepted a simple denial from Hitler and his forces in 1936? "What? Us up to no good? Of course not!"
1. Control healing by funding only the methods that promote the end-goals of greed and totalitarian control.
A century ago, the Rockefellers funded medical colleges that submitted to their vision of "health care." Nearly all other forms of healing have been "proven" ineffective and outlawed, all without peer reviewed research.
2. Introduce illness by creating chemicals that allow greater productivity so the food industry is hooked, but that slowly make the body ill so it's harder to point the finger at the source.
Gradually invade food production with more and more chemicals, like arsenic for chickens in the 1940's—fat, juicy poison. Use mercury in dental fillings—the same amount of mercury that would condemn a lake resides in most mouths. Safe? People exhibiting mercury poisoning symptoms may think something else caused them simply because they've been told that mercury in their mouths is safe.
3. Control the food and drug industries so that they promote the end-goals. Cures are made illegal, healthier options are restricted or eliminated. Illnesses are maintained, never resolved.
Growing out of an agricultural division of chemistry, the FDA became the regulatory agency it is today. The pharmaceutical industry became big business. And once agency employees left government, they often enough found cushy jobs in the very companies they regulated. Conflict of interest? Would you believe their simple denial?
4. Deregulate banking. Allow sources of income to be milked dry despite the detrimental effects on lives and economies.
The banking ills of 1929 remained forgotten when legislators started to deregulate banking in the 1980's. The foxes were now left to look out for the chickens.
5. Restrict travel. Make it harder to travel. Put in place mechanisms and procedures that would allow for a totalitarian grip on travel.
The changes with 9/11 were only the beginning. See how easily we rolled over and allowed it to happen. Of course, if we knew that it was all staged to make us think there was a danger, we would be outraged.
6. Restrict communication. Cut back on mail and place termination power for the internet in the hands of an unrestricted few.
The United States Congress is now considering legislation to allow unmonitored control over the Internet. No legal suit needed. Merely pull the plug on those sites that offend the beast of tyranny.
7. Establish a new, electronic form of ID-currency. Imagine a personal microchip imbedded in your body as the only method to be used for commerce or identification. Revelations, the last book of the Bible, talks of this—the "mark of the beast."
If you don't believe Aaron Russo, then check out the NBC Evening News where implanted chips by 2017 are lauded as "progress."
To be sure, there are other steps to this slow legacy of power grabbing—like the slow tightening of a python. When it becomes too uncomfortable, it is already too late to do anything about it.
Women's liberation was meant to fracture the family, but in a way that made it seem like we're doing justice to the feminine side of society. By this we make children dependent upon the government for guidance. And once the women are in the workforce, their new lifestyles make it impossible to go back and reclaim the family.
Patriot Act? It's not about being patriotic. That's idiotic. It's about greater surveillance power vested in an unsupervised few. No more checks and balances. Then, when dissent becomes illegal, it's easier to track down dissenters and to eliminate them. Years ago, capitalists were condemning the evils of communism, but was it meant only to distract from their own, very similar totalitarian plans?
The Beauty of a Dead Internet
The Internet would not be destroyed, just killed and reanimated—a virtual zombie doing the bidding of a tyrannical few. Sound impossible? It's happening right now under the guise of "helping the poor entertainment industry fight the growing threat of piracy." Sounds nice, but is that really the purpose? The trick has always been to produce a restriction or a control, but to label it as something far more desirable. You have to admit, such a sneaky strategy is almost "sexy."
Imagine a world where bankers and other elite control all commerce. Your bank account can be wiped out if you are found lacking or somehow undesirable to the few.
Dissent? Try it. Your website no longer exists. Your email swallowed into a black hole of electronic currents.
If someone wants to gather a resistance movement to target one company, it fails because there is no forum in which to build such a movement. Each citizen becomes like Neo before he learned the truth of the Matrix—trapped in a dream—a false reality of apparent security.
The power we enjoy today, but use with casual disinterest, won't exist in such a world. Your voice will be silenced, your freedom of movement curtailed, your ability to live compromised.
And here's a video of Jay Rockefeller telling us how the Internet should never have existed. He makes it sound like a good idea to place hefty restrictions on the Internet. Very clever indeed!
"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing."
—Albert Einstein
The Orwellian Nightmare is Upon Us
God save us all!
But don't give up hope. Simply prepare yourself. Do what you can to help others and prepare for the Kingdom of God to come.
Faith is about fearlessness in the face of evil.
Update: 2011:1212
Federal agents raid a Mormon food storage facility demanding a list of people's names. Hmm-m-m! No warrant? Just intimidation? Is it true?
If it is true, then the Patriot Act seems to be gaining a new purpose (perhaps one intended all along). Would terrorists store food like this? Would concerned citizens who are worried how crazy their government is becoming?
And it seems detention camps are being set up by FEMA in preparation for Martial Law.
I remember when the movie, "Red Dawn," showed detention camps in America, but it was a foreign aggressor who implemented them in that fiction. Now, it seems the old strategy of creating a problem and supplying a seductive solution is being taken to the next logical step. Create unrest then solve it with detention centers. And use the U.S. military to "keep the peace" (or start the unrest).... Didn't that used to be illegal? Ahh, the times are a changing!
