Another 5-Star Review: Blinders Keepers

Posted on October 30, 2022 by johnrachel

Just got another 5-star review for “Blinders Keepers”, posted all over the book-o-sphere. Specific incidents aside, as whacky and outrageously funny as it apparently is, I think it’s astonishing how well it captures the absurdity and circus-like environment of our current politics.

It Is What It Isn’t

Posted on January 30, 2022 by johnrachel

Yes, we’re buried in mountains of bullsh*t, propaganda, fake this, fake that, deep fakes, false flags, manufactured crises. Lies are flaunted openly with brash impudence and total impunity, even celebrated. Being a great liar, if not openly lauded, seems to be quietly admired. That’s the world we live in. It is what it isn’t. It’s probably not what it appears to be. Truth is relative. Facts belong to the highest bidder. So … is there a solution to this mess? Anything we can do to reverse this descent into cognitive chaos? Continue reading →

Looking For Change in All the Wrong Places

Posted on June 15, 2021 by John Rachel

According to a recent report, 62% of our fine citizens, judge that the $715 billion official 2022 defense budget proposed by President Biden, is right on target. In fact, 17% of those polled think we need to spend more. I will credit the Deep State and MIC with a true victory here. The massive psyops brainwashing of the American public has been a resounding success! Continue reading →

No Negotiating With Terrorists

Posted on March 10, 2017 by johnrachel

U.S. terrorism expresses itself internationally as wars, regime changes, special operations missions, economic manipulation and interference, cyber and propaganda warfare, and is implemented with the forward-basing of troops and often outright military occupation of 140 countries. While we can find fault in the workings of the loose collective of institutions which make up what is now called the Deep State, much direct blame for our terrorism can be assigned to the CIA. We now have little choice. The CIA and all traces of it must be eradicated. “No negotiating with terrorists!” Continue reading →

A Nation of Relentless Savagery

Posted on January 29, 2017 by johnrachel

We kill efficiently. We kill without remorse. We kill without hesitation. In 2016, the final year in office for our Nobel Peace Prize president, the U.S. dropped 26,171 bombs on seven countries, none of which have attacked America, none of which we are officially at war with. History will judge the U.S. as Martin Luther King, Jr. did in his historic address: “The greatest purveyor of violence in the world …” When you file your return on April 15th, recall that this is where a nice chunk of your tax dollars went last year.

Paying For The Peace Dividend

Posted on October 12, 2016 by johnrachel

Be as skeptical as you want, paying for the Peace Dividend with a major realignment of our priorities and tax law, is the easy part. Fighting off the barrage of pseudo-scholarly neoliberal propaganda will be the challenge. The autocrats who now being criminally enriched by the current regime of crony capitalism and pay-for-play politics will battle this with every dirty trick they can come up with. Truth and fairness are on our side. We must not waver. We can pay for this. We can do this! Continue reading →

Dealing With A Shark Attack

Posted on September 30, 2016 by johnrachel

How do you deal with a shark attack in a swimming pool? You drain the water and watch the shark suffocate. Same with ending war. Drain the pool of funds and the militarism will stop.

The Peace Dividend strategy is exactly that. Drain the pool of funds which our insane neocon-infested military establishment — which includes the DOD, NSA, CIA, DHS, Congress, and the White House — abuses with its never-ending wars and delusional pursuit of world empire. No money. No more unnecessary wars. Continue reading →

How to Become a Target for State Assassination

Posted on March 4, 2016 by johnrachel

The absence of war is not peace. More accurately, in our times the absence of war is a truce. A truce is the abatement of conflict with no guarantee that war will not break out again. Peace is a state where no conflict is ongoing or possible. Continue reading →
