I use to be a normie.

But I’ve learned truth is rare, necessary for survival and hard to come by,  so now I’m a collector of data points.  I collect data points until a picture emerges which may point my way to truth.

I am of the age of the US-Vietnam conflict era.  Too young to be drafted, but I did get a draft card near the end of the war.   I remember being in high school and watching “the most trusted man in America” tell us “…And that’s the way it is,” at the end of each broadcast.  The  name of this trusted figure was Walter Cronkite.  I later learned this man couldn’t be trusted at all. In fact Walter had a big secret to hide.   See video.   I remember the nightly body bag count and seeing black body bags and flag-draped metal coffins full of dead boys about my age being loaded into the back of large military planes for shipment back to the USA. Neither I nor any of my friends in high school knew why we were way over there fighting this bloody, unwinnable war in a land far, far away.  We were told we were fighting against the Godless communists who desired  to enslave us all, but something just didn’t seem to make sense to our young minds.

I remember the Vietnam memorial –the wall of names– and I remember mothers going to that wall to see their son’s name and to make a trace of their memory.

I was nine when someone shot the president  in the head in broad daylight.  I still remember the horrible feelings I had that day.  I remember the Warren Report and thinking something is just not right, but I accepted the official story and moved on with my life.

I remember the attacks on 9/11 and I remember the official story as told by the news media and by the 9/11 Commission thinking something is just not right about this story; so this time, I paused and started to observe and study.  Yes, I did move on with my life, but I had enough data points to start asking questions about what I believed to be true.  And I did.  The answers were unexpected.

I read a lot of books, written mostly by very careful historians who do not make their statements lightly, or  without the documentation to back them up. Some like Antony C. Sutton paid a price for their honesty.  Among my favorite are:

Reading List: 

• Anglo-American Establishment by Carroll Quigley (June 1, 1981)
• Tragedy & Hope: A History of the World in Our Time by Carroll Quigley (Jun 1, 1975)
• Tragedy and Hope 101: The Illusion of Justice, Freedom, and Democracy by Joseph Plummer, Introduction by G. Edward Griffin (Apr 24, 2014)
• The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy And Its Geostrategic Imperatives by Zbigniew Brzezinski (Sep 18, 1998)
• Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution: The Remarkable True Story of the American Capitalists Who Financed the… by Anthony C. Sutton (Jan 1, 2012)
• Wall Street and FDR Hardcover March 1, 2007 by Antony C. Sutton
• Wall Street & the Rise of Hitler Paperback – June, 1976 by Antony C. Sutton

What I learned

We were lied into the following wars by our government and by our media…

• The Spanish American war
• World War I
• World War II
• The Korean War
• The Vietnam War
• The Invasion of Iraq
• The Invasion of Afghanistan
• The attack and intervention in Libya
• The intervention and civil war in Syria
• The civil war in Ukraine

James Perloff does an excellent job summarizing many of these lies in his PowerPoint and lecture.

So today in the year 2020 as I sit here writing these words, I am no longer a normie.  I don’t believe anything our government or our established media tell us.  What they say is just another data point to consider; to collect and to compare with other data points — and observable facts, when available.   What I do know, is that these lies cannot be a mistake;  and are therefore used to control and enslave us — to herd us like livestock to be skinned and rendered– so long as we believe the lies.  The cure is simple.  Stop believing their lies and do it now.   If you don’t want to be treated like livestock, stop acting like livestock.

The solution above was exposed some 500 years ago in an excellent book called ‘The Politics of Obedience: The Discourse of Voluntary Servitude’ by Etienne de la Boetie
