Deny the Weaponmaker’s Credo


Deny the Weaponmaker’s Credo


  The Future Isn’t What it Used to Be

“Life – which you so nobly serve – comes from destruction, disorder and chaos. Now take this empty glass; here it is, simple, serene – boring. But if it is destroyed…” The weapon dealer dropped the glass of water on the floor and continued as he glanced at a busy bevy of mobile gadgets that appeared as if by magic, “…look at all these little things, so busy now, notice how each one is useful. What a lovely ballet ensues – so full of form and colour.” The little mechanisms clean up the mess, brushing away the shards and mopping up the water before another device provides the smiling salesman with a freshly filled glass.
 
             “Now think about all those people that created them – technicians, engineers, hundreds of people who will be able to feed their children tonight, so those children can grow up big and strong and have teeny weeny children of their own and so on and so forth, thus adding to the great chain of life.  “You see… by creating a little destruction, I’m effectively encouraging life…”

Some people will try to convince you that free markets can be trusted to deliver the greater good to the greatest number. Many will tell you that governments have no business interfering with business and any intervention in corporate matters is self-defeating, narrow-minded protectionism.
 
  What a load of bullshit. Markets aren’t free and the playing fields are about as level as the mountains of the Moon.
 
   If modern governments can’t curb thugs, thieves and bullies and protect their citizens from the heavy hand of intrinsically competitive and soulless corporations, then why bother to vote or huddle under the holey umbrella of their useless ‘protection’? All governments evolved from the rudimentary beginnings of systematised protection rackets, in which bullies enforced their lore and orders at the point of a hunter’s sharpened stick, with or without the assent of their stone-throwing tribe. Now that the human tribe is finally learning to stand up on its hind legs again and beginning to grow restless, the predatory hunters are becoming nervous.
 
  Security is still the only irrational rationale for the continuing existence of protectionist nation states in the new millennium – but who do we really need protection from? Is our world at the mercy of rapacious nations, hungry populations, feuding tribes and incompatible creeds – or are we manipulated by invested interests that make use of age old squabbles and stupid rivalries to further their own racist control freak agendas?
 
   Come on – wake up and smell the burning oil and gas. A mere handful of competing groups of well-heeled gangsters runs the world. As in most cultures throughout history, those we need protection from the most are faceless but dynastically-minded authoritarian thugs who perpetuate their misery-making empires by terrorising everyone else. They’re the ones who really decide where their modern corporate military front-men generals will next release their bulletproof-armored pawns.
 
   These monopolist pillar-pariahs of society somehow think they can continue to shift the heavy load of their accrued karma onto everyone else’s hardworking backs. They fervently believe they can continue to get out of jail for free until well after the fat lady sings - when their bullshit hits the windmill and falls in everyone’s water supply, and they can retire to well-fortified, thoroughly stocked happy country manors and bunkers, maintained by servile lackeys and locked-in servants.
 
  Their governmental underlings – those glorious ‘leaders’ whose smiling faces are so painfully familiar to us all - come in a distant third in the culpability stakes, well behind greedy industrialists and the paranoid military. Even when presidents and ministers appear to be the ones who are wielding sharp nuclear-tipped sticks and irradiated bullets, those sticks and stones are truly the weaponry of others - who are even now preparing to once more dangle their mercenary wares over our heads like a radioactive Sword of Damocles, demanding obedience from a new generation of the duly terrified reactionary mob.
 
  Many individuals and even whole entire nations are wising up; GOD is a small group of families involved in Guns, Oil and Steel. The weapon smiths are the bankers are the fossil fuel monopoly are the chemical manufactures are the bomb makers are the private jail operators are the nuclear power producers. They’re the offspring of Rex Mundi, the self-styled kings of the earth, the dividers and conquerors of yore - makers of weak ends and wreckers of Monday freedom, who have made unwilling robotic nine-to-five slaves of the inventive children of creative freeborn Humanity.
 
  Wake up. It’s all a lie. You’re all the offspring of tribal natives who were pulled from their ancestral homes by their long flowing hair, and almost everyone is a survival-oriented slave to a conquering empire; but all empires fade, and sometimes they all disappear at once. Almost everything you’re told by pontificating pundits, convincing teachers and well-read experts is wrong; no matter how artfully contrived their models are, most of our learned tutors’ premises are fundamentally askew and there’s no security in an intrinsically corrupt edifice.
 
   Everything any public authority can tell you about economics, history, agriculture, the nature of time, light or gravity, human longevity and healing capacity, the structure or age of the universe, the true availability and abundance of energy supplies, your innate psychic abilities, ecological sustainability or the existence of other life in the multiverse, is based on utterly false premises, misleading data and outdated dogmas.
 
   Their classically derived information is good as far as it goes, but in the light of what we really know today – the true information emerging at the cutting edge of unfettered research – that’s not very far. All our vast tree of knowledge is still but a sapling, and many of its branches will one day be shaded out by more overarching concepts. Most of what we teach our children is about as accurate in its portrayal of the universe around them as the quaint beliefs of the medieval era.
 
  Ever since science and medicine became just another couple of profitable businesses our advancement has been thoroughly vetted and controlled. We’ve been going around in wobbly circles for half a century, trapped on a treadmill of Cold War concepts and ideas. More advances have been made in the last decade than in all the millennia since the world last tilted twenty degrees, almost fourteen thousand years ago. You probably won’t know how or why it’s possible to derive energy and fuel for free, or that most of our past is invisible to the eyes of cultures mired in the superstitious notion that human civilization and highly developed cultures are a solely modern occurrence.
 
     Not only are those who ignore the lessons of history oft condemned to repeat them, but our history is far older and more intricate than textbook-quoting archaeologists and historians can possibly realise. Despite all the obvious clues handed on silver platters to supposedly fearless and open-eyed researchers for centuries, the narrow scope of academic pursuits and the funding structures that effectively control all knowledge force those in ivory towers to toe the line if they want to be published – and thereby survive, or as some prefer to put it, contribute.
 
   The protection racket extends into every nook and cranny of the pyramidal human hive, but heavy-handed threats are rarely required - there’s no censor like a self-censoring student or researcher who knows how to tell their teacher or boss what they want to hear.
 
  Our civilizations are far too hierarchical and top-heavy to make the dissemination of the truth possible; it isn’t in the perceived interests of those on the top to tell anyone under them what’s really going on, any more than it’s wise for a slave to tell their master what they really get up to when the overlord’s back is turned – or for a low-paid technician to swiftly inform the upstairs office when they’ve just dropped a stick of plutonium in the acid bath.
 
  Chances are you’re living a lie in an illusory concrete matrix poured over the living flesh of a vast telepathic global deity; chances are the stars aren’t nuclear furnaces but vast agglomerations of energy pouring into our realm from deeper, higher implicate dimensions; chances are you’re an immortal entity living in an intricately conceived fantasy that’s maintained by the interweaving dreams of billions of half-awake minds - but even an utterly socialised insect can escape the hive, or even help to change its hell-bent direction.
 
   Space and time are not what we think they are, and the nature of your consciousness is the true unrevealed mystery of the ages. Take the time to take a look.
 
  The future is writ on water; anything is possible. Many governments are already managing to reign in corporate excess and those who would engage in outdated shows of military muscle. The population of the world is far more free, better nourished and educated than it has been for many generations. We may not have quite realised it yet, but we can do whatever we want.
 
  History isn’t over, and the world won’t go out with a man-made bang. Global suicide isn’t that easy and you don’t go anywhere – you simply have to start all over again.
 
   Creating the closest possible semblance to paradise on planet Earth - for every mother-loving individualistic one of our vast sprawling tribe - is a far more challenging and rewarding pursuit than perpetuating the gangster elite’s stranglehold, by continuing to work for them and do their bidding. Becoming the evolutionary you always knew you wanted to be is a great artistic endeavour, a noble calling and a vocation of which to be proud; your grandchildren will admire you if you make room for them - instead of cursing you for your purblind selfish greed. What are you doing tomorrow?  
 
What are you doing right now?

Who Let the Gods Out?

Who Let the Gods Out?
 
  “There are two great powers… and they’ve been fighting since time began. Every advance in human life, every scrap of knowledge and wisdom and decency we have has been torn by one side from the teeth of the other. Every little increase in human freedom has been fought over ferociously between those who want us to know more and be wiser and stronger, and those who want us to obey and be humble and submit.” 
- From The Subtle Knife by Philip Pullman
The New iDeal  
There will always be some malformed loony who can misuse any information, particularly when it relates to sources of energy or power; it takes very little imagination to see why this is possible. It’s always been the case and has often been used to justify impediments to our freedoms. All technologies are double-edged swords.
            That’s no excuse to keep the Earth’s populace unaware of many of the technologies, techniques and ideas discovered and developed over the last human lifetime. While we use transport and communication devices based on nineteenth century thinking and twentieth century mass marketing, the jewels in the crown of our civilization lie stashed in vaults - and utilised only by the few who are aware of them - to the detriment of everyone else. 
      
       Suppressing new ideas to preserve the status quo only serves the interests of those in positions of power. The main misuses of new technologies are perpetrated by those who would suppress them. 
       Corporations must recoup their research and development costs, and this is another excuse to keep superannuated technology limping along while vastly superior forms are saved for later exploitation. Our industries are aimed at producing dispensable disposable toys whose performance is based on fashion and false economy. Modern cultures produce ‘consumable’ goods with built-in use-by dates like they were going out of style – because style is almost the only thing that changes when ‘new’ models hit the streets. The mindset of today’s production and manufacturing is as outmoded as the notion of war, upon which it’s based; in wartime, industrialists amass huge amounts of wealth by making things that are literally thrown away and must be continually replaced. In wartime most environmental considerations are thrown out with the bathwater. Using the same principles to operate a global civilization is a very silly way to progress, as we are all beginning to understand. 
       None of the technology we consume is ‘state of the art’. Little of it is created to help Humanity or propel us into the pleasurable leisure age that we could all so easily be living in today – instead of this corporate rat-race where time is a luxury and multitudes of desperate wage-slaves swallow the line that they must work until they’re ready to die. All the crap we buy and own and that we burn the planet to consume is made for one purpose alone – to make money. If it wastes ever more expensive energy that we have to pay corporations to provide, so much the better for the corporate usurpers of our governments. None of our civilization is made to last.  
       Do you think the new immortality technologies now coming online will be made available to you? Maybe – if we can turn this hell-bent, amoral juggernaut of money and production for its own sake, into something that actually serves Humanity instead of Mammon. If we learn to like each other we can all learn to SMI[2]LE and have a great time.

       There’s no point any longer in attempting to censor the new ways of understanding nature and physics – and the amazing new technologies and concepts that HAVE been suppressed for the last century, during an era of apparently unimpeded technological advance. This writer has witnessed and investigated many of the new devices that are continually emerging and can vouch for the fact that so-called ‘free energy’ is very real. The ideas and principles that still make paradise on Earth possible for us all - even as our options for survival appear to be narrowing - keep arising again and again, when anyone observes nature with an open mind. Nature’s insights are irrepressible. The principles behind accessing freely available energy are easy to understand.

 

         Up until now, if it can’t easily be weighed, measured - and above all monopolised and SOLD - a groundbreaking technology or theory will be suppressed for as long as possible, in the hierarchical, hidebound caste systems that still give structure to – and program - our newly emerging post-industrial cultures. The Enlightenment-inspired scientific and political revolutions of the last centuries partially transformed the way we run the world, but government by the wealthy for the wealthy is a vampire we have to kill again each generation, to make sure it stays dead. It often reappears in the guise of democracy.
 

         The free flow of information is an indispensable tool if we’re to dig our way out of the abyss we’ve created for ourselves. The principles of freedom and free access upon which the internet was founded are more than mere ideals – they’re the model for a new age. If we simply deny corporate and private thugs the things they crave – our time, attention and money – they’ll stop sucking our life’s blood away.  We can destroy the privatised, compartmentalised hoarding of truth and stop having to PAY for the shared birthright and domain of us all, bequeathed to us by all our ancestors and each other – knowledge and education, information, research and real debate. We create a new world by turning our backs on the shrinking corporate ‘mainstream order’ and letting it dry up as a torrent of new streams of life and consciousness erupts in unexpected places. The inventor if the World Wide Web didn’t patent it or make any money from his invention – he gave it to us all for free!
 

          We support those who are destroying the planet by partaking of their systems and institutions or we nourish alternatives, by exploring and living them. The simple practice of actually living your ideals to change what matters applies to everything that needs changing in the current gangstercratic, barbaric feudal cultures that are birthing our new world.  However they masquerade behind their various isms and ocracies, the same primitive primates try to dominate their respective packs with the same ‘money or the gun’ tactics of bribery, blackmail and racist nepotism, dominated by the grunt with the biggest spear. Their doomed worldview is based on fear and can’t survive without it. How gauche. 
         We all know – or at very least sense - that truly great changes are upon us and the tried-and-trusted old ways will only serve to kill us all in this Brave New World that our willfully barbaric and competitive industriousness has made. We’re growing smarter than the grunts. And we can change it all without violence, with a minimum of turmoil. We can have all the time in the world.

          If we want a free world, the only way we can all have real security is by ensuring that everyone has enough - and that no-one and no group or nation hoards obscene amounts of the world’s common wealth while others have access to none - and half the planet starves amid plenty. The techniques and technologies to change all this and make anything possible are available now – but they can’t be monopolised and may not make anyone a personal fortune. They’ll just save us all. That’s the nature of real freedom and truly free energy.
 

         The distributed network model that’s emerging as a template for the new paradigm - where everything is interconnected and there is no central control, where unpredictable, creative, cooperative independence rules - like the Internet itself – is the model to follow if we’re to create a great and diverse future for everyone.
 
 
         
Many people have been hooked by the line that after the September 2001, the world has become a very different place. Half-truth hogwash! Of course it’s a different place – and we can thank our lucky stars that it is! Just when the world seemed hell-bent on a rollercoaster ride to mass catastrophe, a new generation of smarter, wiser, more compassionate human beings is emerging to take the whip and reins out of the arthritic claws of the fossilised warmongers of the last millennium – and replace them with a joystick and touchpad. Let’s give the agents of change a hand. We can all still have a future if we realise that we’re one dysfunctional family sharing one beautiful world. Our many nations and cultures are just spicy icings on the same capacious cake and it’s unlikely we’ll be allowed to leave the party until we clean up our mess.
 

         There are people and organisations that have set themselves up as gatekeepers of the new emerging physics and ideas, reasoning that dangers exist in free energy technologies that could be exploited by terrorists, for example. That’s only the case with centralised systems that control freaks want to operate – to sell you free energy like a priesthood dispensing indulgences. Small stand-alone power units can easily serve dwellings or apartment blocks and are far less dangerous than gas bottles to run and easy to maintain. They’d be useless to anyone with ill intent and most systems are clean to run, producing zero harmful emissions.
 

         Some of these free energy (or over-unity) technologies exploit the morphology of electrical and magnetic fields, others use resonance technologies and others create usable fuel (and abundant transportable energy) from water. Many are patented and can be scrutinised by serious researchers or skeptical dilettantes. Many work best when used on a small scale – unlike, for instance, the beamed power and flying transportation systems patented by Nikola Tesla a century ago. Most could not be misused any more dangerously than a kitchen stove. When we tie our individual power and transport systems into a loose neural network we’ll be able to close down all coal and nuclear ‘power stations’ – even if we merely use already available state-of-the-art solar, wind, tide and fuel systems.
 

        This is the real world – it’s not science fiction or (simply) the ravings of a conspiracy theorist. Do a little research and above all go out and see for yourself and you’ll begin to understand how much is easily possible. We can repair the planet and continue to make and grow all the things we need, so that there can be abundance for all. We can all have great, guilt-free lives (and unimaginably good ‘standards of living’) as well.
 

        The World Wide Web can be the ultimate instrument of repression, or the instrument of consensual liberation – the choice is up to us, here, now, and we vote with our time and our attention. Free your mind. Free yourself. Freeze out the old industrial corporations and their boring programs; ignore them and they’ll go away. If we live without their influence and turn off the vidiot boxes they sell us to hypnotise ourselves with, a new paradigm will rapidly grow, nourished by our own creations, yearnings, attention and time.

         The genies of free abundant energy are already out of their bottles. There are many ways to bypass the control freaks who try to rule our lives. There’s more than enough to go around if we just stop competing with each other and stop treating the globe like a replaceable football in an antiquated, mindless territorial game dominated by boofheads. There’s a whole new global ball game to learn. The principles behind devices, concepts and technologies that deliver electrical power and totally clean fuels for free are easily understood and communicated. See, for instance, Free Energy.

            Abundant power is everywhere and it’s easily tapped. With clean energy we can repair the ecosystem and allow people to live as they wish, in whatever ways they choose – as long as their lifestyles don’t involve hurting other beings or despoiling the planet. We can all live in a paradise where our burgeoning numbers will stabilise themselves as speed and greed is replaced by pleasure and leisure. The sky isn’t the limit – it’s the ground floor of heaven…
 

        The political and economic structures that make all this possible are already evolving– in the new era of distributed power and information they’re growing to suit the way we live, not the other way around - as in the old top-down pyramid scams run by self-serving jerks that conned our uneducated ancestors for millennia. ‘Welfare’ and ‘socialism’ and ‘the common wealth’ are actually shorthand symbols for universally agreed and agreeable concepts - not evil Trojan horses. Evil propaganda has tried to convince us to automatically denigrate decency and justice, by feeding our worst ingrained fears of being ripped off. If we instead learn to care and share, we can swiftly create a compassionate global family that cares for all its children.
 

        When making money is no longer the prime motivation of doctors, lawyers, politicians, tradespeople, inventors and other servants of wider Humanity, we’ll all easily afford free and excellent health care, transportation and shelter for all. When education is understood as an investment in the future and not something to short-sightedly attempt to make money from today, mass ignorance, imaginary class barriers and apathy will rapidly disappear. Everything that costs us all money – like war, illness, transport, education and energy - actually makes huge amounts of money - for someone. The racist fears of hidebound unethical assholes have dominated our histories for long enough.
 

         We won’t survive with this unsustainable and fundamentally uneconomical feudal world economy; in the times of catastrophic change we’re beginning to experience it’s cheaper to let millions or billions die (and still retain control over desperate viable populations) than it is to try to save them all. The control freaks who think they know what’s about to happen don’t believe there’s any way to avert disaster as food and water supplies dwindle and countries war over primal resources; they think they’re the smartest primates around and honestly believe that if they can’t see any other solution to our global dilemmas than reducing the world’s population, there isn’t one. Their self-fulfilling prophecies of doom and megalomaniacal hubris blind them to new ideas and methods that can save us all – because they can’t control them.
 

        All you have to do to be part of a world that keeps growing and thriving is to understand how and why anything is possible; when you see free energy devices and clean fuel systems actually working – as has this writer – you too may feel compelled to understand (all it takes to understand the basics is to listen as you sing in a bathtub or shower or bottle – see links above). When you see that real healing isn’t something you can buy, but is freely available to us all you can abandon the hypochondriac fears instilled in us by a self-interested mass media and ‘doctors’ paid by toxic chemical factories – and avoid the real manufactured poisons they convincing you to consume and smear on your body.
 

        When you realise that cities are not places of safety at all but hothouse cesspits breeding early death on all levels, you can find better reasons and ways to congregate together – or not. Cities are designed as power bases for power mongers and holding pens for the vassals of industrialisation – they’re not made to shelter and entertain happy people living full lives. Big cities that house the bulk of the population are a very modern phenomenon and are certainly not sustainable, let alone an eternal feature of our curious species.
 

           We can do far better. What kind of world do you want to live in? What kind of life do you really want? Do you think you can get there with more money? Or will it take still more? You can easily close this window and forget this rant, and continue to fund the survival bunkers of the idle ‘born to rule’ rich with your life’s essence. Or you can start enjoying life today – right now – and find others to share the fun with. It’s still a beautiful world, out there just beyond the dark Satanic mills. Just look - you can’t miss it! Do it now, while you have the chance.
 

        When a few million people know what’s easily possible – and why - the chaotic genie of abundance can never easily be trapped in its bottle again. There’s more than enough to go around. Learning what you really want and need – and don’t - is the easiest way to have a great new millennium. Did you ever wonder why you have to pay money to someone just to be allowed to live somewhere? Doesn’t that seem like evil extortion - to a fair, free and honest mind?  

Do you own your own life?   

       Freedom means stepping out of the chains you have made for yourself, and all possessions are chains. Do you want to be a link in an anchor chain that binds the world to a paradigm of megadeath and doom - or part of a fantastic ongoing party of liberation? Free Cyberspace!  Free your mind! Turn on, tune in and opt out. Hang the jerk who invented work and learn to enjoy life. You’ll be glad you did.
