Reader’s Links for May 5, 2022

Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.

  1. The MSM blackout on objective thinking towards Ukraine has been a spectacle, has it not, in terms of its effectiveness in shutting down meaningful discourse. Another line effort in play. I keep getting emails from my child’s school to donate money to the cause. What a presumption of shared virtue signaling this is against a backdrop of diminishing discretionary spending. Why, I can no longer go near the subject with my Belarus friend. There is no room for discussion.

    If public opinion can be characterized as a state-driven trade based on a fictitious narrative, I now take the other side of this trade firstly and reflexively. I will reconsider later. After all, how can one side with the likes of Dear Leader, and his pet parrot, the CBC?

    Using the Ukraine as a grand hole to fkcu in, our masters clearly see limitless utility and possibilities in this geopolitical Pandora’s Box. Capturing the false moral high ground excuses and enables all subsequent rights trespasses. Need another plandemic to shut us down? Let the next “bug” be an “accidental” Uke bioweapon release. (The CCP says it has done its part.) Weaponized food? Easy now. Fifty years of economic malfeasance climaxing in a cornered Federal Reserve? Whew, they say, thanks for the excuse to print more. In fact, we can now print limitlessly due to the growing war effort, and every disaster that spins from this, while we skim our take.

    Every line effort requires its own Iwo Jima to plant its flag in. This high ground provides durable strategic advantage. Hold this hill using media machine guns.

    If innocent Ukrainian lives are regarded so cheaply, why should we think for a second that our own vaxx injuries and deaths matter? After all, it’s the same people pushing both lines.

    There is in Issue 16, March 22, 2022 an article titled:
    Ottawa Freedom Convoy: Tears Down Illusion of Democracy In North America

    Tyrants living in their ivory tower echo chambers are panicking as they have no idea how to interact with actual human beings organizing themselves around such non-mathematical principles as “freedom,” “Justice” and “rights”.
    No there is no limit to the tyrants power!
    When the oppressed man finds no justice,
    When the burden grows unbearable, he appeals
    With fearless heart to Heaven,
    And thence brings dow his everlasting rights,
    Which there abide, inalienably his,
    And indestructible as starts themselves.
    — Friedrich Schiller, Wilhelm Tell’s Rutli Oath

    by Matthew Ehret

    Who would have ever thought that Canada would. E a spark plug for a freedom movement against tyranny?
    As the editor of a Canadian geopolitical magazine for over ten years and author of four books on Canadian History, I am a bit embarrassed to say that I certainly didn’t think that Canadians had this in them.

    The monarchy of the North” certainly isn’t something that exudes revolutionary sentiment — having been founded on such non-revolutionary principles as “Peace, Ordinance and Good Governance” which have stood in stark contrast to the significantly more inspiring “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness “ enshrined in the founding documents of our Southern cousins. Even our founding 1867 documents ( drafted over a champagne fueled month of hedonism in 1864) explicitly calls out the purpose of confederation not as a means of “ supporting the general welfare” as was the case of the USA’s constitution in 1787, but rather” to promote the interests of the British Empore.
    But here it is.

    Countless thousands of Patriots have driven across the country to bunker down in Ottawa in peace and high festive spirits which I had to see with my own eyes to believe demanding something so simple and in-tainted by ideology: freedom to work, provide for families and a respect of basic rights as laid out in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms ( a 1982 upgrade to the embarrassingly oligarchical British North American Act of 1867).

    Mainstream media and political hacks have been working overtime to paint the Freedom Convoy that converged on Ottawa on January 29 as an “insurrections movement” full of “white supremacists”, “Russian stooges”, and “Nazis” out to “overthrow the government”. Even the Bank of England’s former Governor ( and World Economic Forum Trustee) Mark Carney chimed in on the February 7 stating that “this is sedition” and that “ those who are still helping to extend this occupation MUST be identified and punished to the full force of the law”. Carney, the perennial financial darling of Goldman Sachs and the city of London (and Prime Ministerial hopeful) called for a targeting of all those who donated money to this domestic terror operation.

    Faced with an organic civil rights movement of blue collar truckers, farmers and ten of thousands of supporters who have convened in Canada’s capital to demand a restoration of basic freedoms, the current Liberal government has failed to show even an ounce of humanity or capacity to negotiate. This shouldn’t be a surprise for those who have seen the hypocrisy of the new-Liberal “rules-based” order ideologues in action over the past few years who are quick to celeb the “ liberty “ of citizens of the Ukraine, Hong Kong, or Xinjiang when outcome benefits the geopolitical aims of detached technocrats hungry for global hegemony. The moment genuine self-organized labour movements arise demanding basic rights be recognized, then the masks come off and the rage of tyrants show their truce faces.

    so instead of negotiation and discussion around principled constitutional issues as the protestors have requested, we have instead seen only threats, slander and more threats ranging from cutting off 10 million of the of funding raised on GoFundMe on February 4, and then another 8 million raised on GiveGoSend on February 10. we have seen the government impose a state of emergency first in the city of Ottawa followed by a full province wide state of emergency on February 11 justifying cutting off vital supplies of of fuel to the truckers and their families who have been camped out in -22 degree Celsius temperatures. Edicts making it illegal to provide supplies to the protesters under threat of fines ranging up to 100 thousand dollars and one year in prison have been drafted and patriotic citizens who have organized for their right to not live under a dictatorship have been stigmatized by the media as “insurgents”.

    Emergency Measures Act invoked:
    Then on February 14. Justine Trudeau, followed by Deputy Prime Minister and WEF-Trustee Chrystia Freeland took turns announcing the invocation of the Emergency Measures Act which itself had been formerly known as the “War Measured Act” last invoked nearly 50 years earlier by Justin’s father Pierre Elliott Trudeau as a “solution” to the RCMP-directed terror cells deployed across Quebec and culminating in the month long “October Crisis” of 1970. the act’s name was changed in 1988 although it’s function is entirely identical.

    Under the Emergency Measures Act, the deep state of Canada managing Trudeau has adopted the Mark Carney program outlined on February 7 of targeting bank accounts of all Canadians either involved with the convoy directly or having supported the convoy via the online donations or cryptocurrencies. What might those individuals suffer for the crime of having offered support of participation in the protests? Those “deplorable insurgents” are facing the threat of seeing their bank accounts indefinitely frozen, and if they own businesses, having their insurance policies cancelled. The “big 5” banks of Canada have this been “deputized” and given full legal protections from being sued from those whose lives will be damaged by the shutdown of bank accounts.

    One thing has become apparent this far: the threats are not working with the truckers and other protestors renewing their commitments to remain in place and even four provincial premiers (from Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec and Manitoba) denouncing the emergency measures.

    The Canadian Civil Liberties Association has also denounced the act saying: “the federal government has not met the threshold necessary to invoke the emergencies act. This law creates a high and clear standard of good reason: The act allows the government to by ordinary democratic processes……..The Emergency Act can only be invoked when a situation “seriously threatens the ability of the Government of Canada to preserve the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of Canada” and when the situation “cannot be effectively dealt with under any other law of Canada”.

    Fissures Across the Establishment

    Due to the inflexible Borg-like inability to negotiate with an organic civil rights movement suffered by all technocratic Davos-creatures, major fissures have begun to break throughout the political establishment of Canada.

    Already two members of the Liberal Party have gone renegade, breaking with Canada’s holy system of whips and loyalty to party above conscience demanding that Trudeau repeal the immensely unpopular and useless Covid measures. on February 8, Liberal MP Joel Lightbound commented that Trudeau’s vile generalizations of the protesters have only served to “wedge divide and stigmatize” Canadians making the point that he has only seen a wide diversity of races attend the freedom convoy in Ottawa and across the provinces. One day later, a second Liberal MP Yvette Robillard broke party ranks re-emphasizing his support for Lightbound’s statements and warned that many others within the party share these dissenting views and will soon speak out if changes are not affected soon.

    In the Conservative Party, a coup of sorts took place on February 3 when opposition leader Erin O’Toole was ousted by his own caucus for sounding too much like a World Economic Forum ghoul and for the first time in over two years, an actual counter voice of opposition can be heard in the halls of parliament with demands by every single Conservative member of parliament to end the lockdown mandates and support the nation-wide protest movement.

    on provincial levels, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec and PEI have announced a repeal of their Covid mandates including vaccination passports, while Quebec has stepped back from the anti-vaccination tax which was threatened by Premier Legault until only a week ago.

    Even NDP head Jagmeet Singh who had labelled all protestors white supremacists just a few days ago reversed his tune—perhaps due to the overwhelming presence of Sikhs in the federal and provincial convoys.

    Freedom Convoy Nightmares for Technocrats in USA land Europe

    Meanwhile the Biden Administration has given its full support to Justin Trudeau to use the full force of the federal power to shut down the protests ( conflating the blockade of US-Canada trade in Windsor and Manitoba as being tied directly to the Ottawa protests……which it isn’t).

    Perhaps Biden is concerned that the example of the convoy has spread not only across nations of the Trans
    Atlantic Community and Five Eyes Cage, but also to the USA itself where a parallel American Freedom convoy will leave Southern California for Washington D.C. on March 5 involving tens of thousands of American truckers.

    Former Obama Asst. Sec of Homeland Security and frequent CNN commentator Juliette Kayyem delivered her disturbing comments to this festering problem which must be stopped at all costs saying: “Trust me, I will not run out of ways to make this hurt: cancel their insurance; suspend their drivers licenses’ prohibit any future regulatory certification for truckers etc.. Have we learned nothing? These things fester when there are no consequences”.

    How this process will unfold in the coming days and weeks is impossible to determine. The illusion of Liberal democracy which fueled self-aggrandizing government virtue signaling technocrats lecturing “bad” authoritarian states of
    Europe how freedom should has collapsed.

    One thing is certain.

    Those tyrants living in their ivory tower echo chambers demanding the world to conform in their ideal post-nation state utopias are panicking as they have no idea how to interact with actual human beings organizing themselves around such non- mathematical principles as “freedom”, “justice” and “rights” which are inalienable to all citizens – even if they live under a monarchy.

    BMO and the Government of Canada freezes Druthers’ bank account and credit card. Donorbox also cancels Druthers’ campaign. ON February 14, the day the Emergencies Act was invoked, BMO froze the only bank account Druthers uses for the “crime” of directly financially supporting the truckers, citing a Facebook post made by creator Shawn Jason as part of their evidence. Donarbox also removed the Druthers-Truckers campaign from their platform. “As of February 28, Druthers bank account is still frozen.
