Psychopathic Dreamin’

April 9, 2010

John Robb, a former Air Force officer who gave us the book Brave New War and who blogs about 4th Generational Warfare (essentially, anarchic terrorism within a horrific global dystopia) at his website, Global Guerrillas, is now at work on a new book, in which he proudly shares a snippet at his latest post:

Visualizing Breakdowns
04/09/2010

Here’s a small slice of a scenario I built for the new book (still in process):

In a little more than a decade after the 2008 financial crisis, the steady hum of portable generators was a common feature of most cities and suburbs in the formerly prosperous nations of the G8. They usually kicked on shortly after lunch, when the central power systems shut down. In some built up areas, particularly in the favelas that had sprung up around many of the major cities, complete multi-megawatt electricity grids had been built with bailing wire and twine.

The arrival of the generators and ad hoc power networks arrived not long after the second financial collapse. In that crisis, many of the less financially able power companies went bankrupt, caught the crossfire between high commodity prices (oil, natural gas, and coal), customers unable to pay, and a global financial market unwilling to extend credit or facilitate transactions. The loss of power only lasted a couple of months, but people remembered, and those able to afford it began buying generators in bulk. Fortunately, the temperatures that summer only reached the mid nineties in most of the country, and the deaths due to heat exhaustion were limited to just over ten thousand, mostly elderly, citizens.

What I am unable to figure out is the following:

  • Is this the fantasy of a independent technological sci-fi dreamer;
  • Or, is it a psychopathic brain that views this future with glee;
  • Or, are we looking at a globalist military actor seeking to predictively program this “vision” into their audience, contributing to the eventuation of this bizarre future?

Or, is this merely a tactic of psychological warfare – seeking to increase general fear levels in order to create an environment within the human brain that is more conducive to propaganda programming?

No matter the determination, whether listed here or not, one can be pretty damn sure that the material Robb is publishing is authorized by establishment circles.  For if it was not, Robb’s credibility would be attacked, in the media and elsewhere, for actively promoting a chaotic and dystopian future.  In short, he’d be framed as another Patriot nutcase, and hauled on to the most politically dialect television programs available and chastised.  The fact that he is left alone to discuss this material is very telling.

‘You can become wealthy by creating wealth or by appropriating the wealth created by other people. When the appropriation of the wealth is illegal it is called theft or fraud. When it is legal economists call it rent-seeking’

– John Kay, “Financial Times”.

In regard to Clay Shirky’s, The Collapse of Complex Business Models, Clay should do a little more historical homework, because the elite always crash the system to transfer enormous wealth while blaming it on the public. These are not organic events, as Shirky would want us to believe, but come about through system design that is intentionally deceptive to those with normal human biology (ie. the vast majority that are not psychopathic).

Here’s some of what Shirky would like for us to believe:

“Complex societies collapse because, when some stress comes, those societies have become too inflexible to respond….When societies fail to respond to reduced circumstances through orderly downsizing, it isn’t because they don’t want to, it’s because they can’t.

In such systems, there is no way to make things a little bit simpler – the whole edifice becomes a huge, interlocking system not readily amenable to change. … Furthermore, even when moderate adjustments could be made, they tend to be resisted, because any simplification discomfits elites.

When the value of complexity turns negative, a society plagued by an inability to react remains as complex as ever, right up to the moment where it becomes suddenly and dramatically simpler, which is to say right up to the moment of collapse. Collapse is simply the last remaining method of simplification.”

While reader of Shirky’s blog may want to become familiar with Jean Baudrillard’s work on Simulacra & Simulation, Clay might want to start with this book by Fred Harrison…

The Predator Culture: The Systemic Roots and Intent of Organized Violence
Fred Harrison

Fred Harrison draws on global-wide case studies to show how the violent birth of nation-states, whether the result of territorial conquests or colonialism, splits the population into two classes, victors and vanquished. This division is perpetuated and legitimated through the system of land tenure. The pathological consequences – as diverse as failed states, organized crime (mafia), religious fundamentalism and the re-emergence of piracy – are the result of the violent uprooting of the original inhabitants from their homelands. Understanding the territorial basis of political power and wealth is the pre-requisite, Fred Harrison argues, for making sense of issues as diverse as genocide, narco-gangsterism, terrorism and fascism. The struggle over land and resources, he contends, is at the root of all of today’s global crises. Some attempts are being made to restore land to those in need, ranging from the offer of land in Afghanistan to the Taliban as an inducement to set aside their violent strategies, to the sharing of the rents of oil in Nigeria to entice eco-warriors into mainstream politics. But these piecemeal tactics fail to synthesise the conditions for peace and prosperity. “The Predator Culture” provides a framework for truth and reconciliation in what has become a violent world that is slipping dangerously out of control.

William Black, a product of the Kansas City School of Economics, and who helped bust Keating during the S&L crisis, is just awesome in this round
of interviews.  He exposes the financial fraud in the recent bailouts, and shows Obama’s complicity.

Listen to Lauryn Hill tell her audience to “just get out”
of this system of oppression, a system of  “social purgatory”.

“I Get Out” (lyrics)

[Singing Chorus]
I get out, I get out of all your boxes
I get out, you can’t hold me in these chains
I’ll get out
Father free me from this bondage
Knowin’ my condition
Is the reason I must change

[Verse 1]
Your stinkin’ resolution
Is no type of solution
Preventin’ me from freedom
Maintainin’ your pollution
I won’t support your lie no more
I won’t even try no more
If I have to die, oh Lord
That’s how I choose to live

I won’t be compromised no more
I can’t be victimised no more

I just don’t sympathize no more
Cause now I understand
You just wanna use me
You say “love” then abuse me
You never thought you’d loose me
But how quickly we forget
That nothin’ is for certain
You thought I’d stay here hurtin’
Your guilt trip’s just not workin’
Repressin’ me to death
Cause now I’m choosin’ life, yo
I take the sacrifice, yo
If everything must go, then go
That’s how I choose to live

[Pause]

[Singing rest of Verse 1]
That’s how I choose to live…
Hehehehe, awhh
No more compromises
I see past your disguises
Blindin’ through mind control
Stealin’ my eternal soul
Appealin’ through material
To keep me as your slave

[Singing Chorus]
But I get out
Oh, I get out of all your boxes
I get out
Oh, you can’t hold me in these chains
I’ll get out
Oh, I want out of social bondage
Knowin’ my condition
Oh, is the reason I must change

[Singing Verse 2]
See, what you see is what you get
Oh, and you ain’t seen nothin’ yet

Oh, I don’t care if you’re upset
I could care less if you’re upset
See it don’t change the truth
And your hurt feeling’s no excuse
To keep me in this box
Psychological locks

Repressin’ true expression
Cementin’ this repression
Promotin’ mass deception
So that no one can be healed
I don’t respect your system
I won’t protect your system
When you talk I don’t listen
Oh, let my Father’s will be done

[Singing Chorus]
And just get out
Oh, just get out of all these bondage
Just get out
Oh, you can’t hold me in chains
Just get out
All these traditions killin’ freedom
Knowin’ my condition
Is the reason I must change

[Singing Verse 3]
I’ve just accepted what you said
Keepin’ me among the dead
The only way to know
Is to walk then learn and grow
But faith is not your speed
Oh, you’ve had everyone believed
That you’re the sole authority
Just follow the majority
Afraid to face reality
The system is a joke
Oh, you’d be smart to save your soul
Oh, when escape is mind control
You spent your life in sacrifice
To a system for the dead

Oh, are you sure…
Where is the passion in this living
Are you sure it’s God you servin’
Obligated to a system
Getting less then you’re deserving
Who made up these schools, I say
Who made up these rules, I say
Animal conditioning
Oh, just to keep us as a slave

[Singing Chorus]
Oh, just get out
Of this social purgatory
Just get out
All these traditions are a lie
Just get out
Superstition killing freedom
Knowin’ my condition
Is the reason I must die?

Just get out
Just get out
Just get out
Let’s get out
Let’s get out
Knowin’ my condition
Is the reason I must die?

Just get out
