The Golden Road to Unlimited Socialism

 

 

My good friend Concerned American at Western Rifle Shooters Association recently wrote to Vlad and me. He wanted to ask our East Bloc contacts who grew up under communism the following question:

“What lessons, if any, can be taken from the collapse of the Soviet Bloc and applied to those of us stuck in the upcoming fall of the US Bloc?”

Vlad and I forwarded his message to a number of our translators who have experienced communism. Four of them have replied so far, and more are expected. I’ve collected the first group below.

I expect WRSA and Vlad to mirror this post, and will add an update with links for the mirrors when they appear.

Update: The WRSA post is here.

The first report is from DarLink, the only member of the team who grew up in the Soviet Union. She later moved to Israel, and translates both Russian and Hebrew for Vlad and me:

I have a nearly constant sense of déjà vu these days…it feels like my past is inescapable; I simply cannot leave the USSR.

The signs are everywhere:

A senile leader, lying media, a lawless society, corrupt institutions…

The fall is coming and I don’t think we can stop it.

  • Food shortages.
  • Medical supplies shortages.
  • Water, electricity, gas will be shut randomly and for unknown periods of time.
  • The government will run out of money and we the people will be left to fend for ourselves.

Prepare in anyway you can:

Get out of the cities — warmer areas where you can grow your own food are the best, in my opinion.

If you are alone, gather some friends/relatives in a group and do it together — you will go back in time technologically, and living off the land is easier in a group.

Learn to grow anything that can nourish you and your family.

Learn to hunt.

Prepare alternative sources of water.

If you can rig your own electro grid, do it.

Learn a craft others may need and would be willing to pay for in goods.

Money will be useless for a while — have stuff you can trade.

Get guns and ammo to defend what you have — others WILL try to rob you of anything valuable.

The situation, most likely, will be different from state to state, and some will have it harder than the others — if you are in a blue state, leave.

It may not be obvious, but Russians actually had it easier and suffered less than Americans will — they were less spoiled, had less stuff, and their fall was less destructive because there wasn’t much there anyway.

It’s up to us.

Start preparing.

The second report is from CrossWare, who grew up in Hungary under communism. She emigrated to Canada and lived there for a number of years, but returned home when political repression in Canada reached an alarming level:

The media and opposition now using the same playbook to gallop towards absolute state power

Watch the following clip with a lot of awareness. Its an interesting dance you see play out here, ending with the government appeasing the “opposition” by explaining that lockdowns and most importantly, the vaxx pass may go on forever, so long as they can justify it with “variants” and what not.

That’s layer one. But the thing most interesting, is how the same kind of phoney opposition you see on legacy media, is used now in government.

When you watch any media interview of a politician, say CBC for example, but it’s just as true for CTV, Global, etc., you see journalists pretending to be harsh and stern with the politician by asking questions about why they are not doing more of what they already want to do, and sooner.

In other words, when they launch another ‘variant’ of the Corona virus at the public like a propaganda bomb, the journalists never ask why they don’t wait and see if it has any real danger to it, or present any experts who think the entire response by the government to the virus was a bad idea, or show that personal freedom also has a cost in lives.

They always, and I mean always, demand to know why the government doesn’t immediately lock down the public, or force more vaccines, without even mentioning that all the carriers of the new Xi Omicron variant actually were fully vaccinated. They demand more state control every time. Its astonishing. But not.

(And on that note, you can hear a moment of honesty creep in when the NDP leader actually says out loud and consciously that the danger of having an end date for the vaxx-pass is that people who don’t want the vaccine know they just have to wait out the clock.

This is proof that the plan is to make everyone take the vaccine, and not to defeat the virus! because if it was about the virus, who cares if anyone takes a vaccine, so long as the threat is gone!)

And in this clip, the opposition-in-name-only make the same demands. They want the Conservative government to restrict more rights, more freedoms, for longer. And of course, well it would be undemocratic for the government not to oblige the media and opposition, wouldn’t it?

Much like this display in the Federal parliament from just the other day. When all parties came together to pass a bill to destroy freedom of speech in Canada, and the entire parliament gave themselves a standing ovation for several minutes. Not one dissenter.

This is about a bill misnamed to make it appear to be about opposing violent forced methods to make homosexual people heterosexual. Its called the ‘Anti-conversion therapy bill’. But in reality, this is a one way law that only forbids people from talking to children and others when they have been persuaded they are “trans” or some other attitude which they may have never thought of before, and suggesting maybe its a phase, or a fashion. It does not prevent your child’s teacher from trying to convince your healthy hetero-child that they are gay, or in need of sterilizing and mutilating surgery to become something wholly unnatural. That remains state subsidized.

Australia today

First, an interview with a woman who was near someone who tested positive and how her life went after that. Remember, no one in the story is actually sick. As far as we can tell from this video, not even the person who tested positive which was the excuse for setting off this chain of events…

According to the detainee, people who speak out against these measures are being punished. That is the slam dunk showing this is political and not medical or scientific.

Oz-Rita, who sent ALL this material in, adds the following:

Be aware this was filmed 1 week ago, however, this is now allegedly happening to hundreds of HEALTHY people in Northern Territories.

We must keep a close eye on what’s happening. Keep up to date with what’s going on in NT here – www.instagram.com/voice_of_firstnations

This next video is Northern Territory’s Chief Minister Michael Gunner, explaining his views on those who oppose mandatory vaccinations. “You are”, he explains, “An antivaxxer if you support, give comfort to anyone who opposes the mandates”. I had to add a comment or two at the start and end. But the video itself is unedited. It is as he said it is.

Link to Reignite Democracy Australia, with a lot of recent news. An MP finally crossed the floor. It’s a start.

Coram Deo in the comments is adding some excellent materials. Please check the comments for a lot more solid material indicating the decrepit state of Australian democracy and liberties. Will add them as able. Below, Craig Kelly objects:

***AUSTRALIA: HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES DEBATES: CRAIG KELLY – I CANNOT SUPPORT THE BILL
video – 14 mins 56 secs
House of Representatives Debates : Corporations Amendment (Improving Outcomes for Litigation Funding Participants) Bill 2021 This Orwellian named Bill does the exact opposite . It uses Soviet style ‘price controls’ which will only make it more difficult for Australian small business to access justice. Shame on the Liberal Government for pushing such legislation which will only protect the big end of town.

AUSTRALIA: SENATOR GERARD RENNICK: PARLIAMENT SHOULD NOT BE HOLDING PEOPLE TO RANSOM
video – 13 mins 3 secs
For those of you saying I’m holding the Parliament to ransom, I say this:
“Parliament should not be holding people to ransom!”
This morning I spoke in support of a bill that would ban governments and businesses from discriminating against Australians who have not received a Covid vaccine.
For months now, I have received letters and messages from Australians and their families who have suffered from adverse reactions to the Covid-19 vaccines, currently being mandated by many employers and governments across the nation. Some of the reactions are serious with victims suffering for months whilst others have sadly died in what appears to be from an adverse reaction to their vaccine.
We must stand up and fight for our rights and civil liberties.

 

Interview with Montreal author, Matthew Ehret on Canada’s authoritarian leaders, past and present

We first became aware of Matthew when he was interviewed on the weekly Reiner Fuellmich Corona Webcast. He had an unusual and interesting but quite knowledgeable understanding of Canada’s communist leaders of the past and present. He has also written two books, one of which is inset in the video at times.

We don’t know much more about this Montreal author but we hope you find this interview interesting and informative.

Klaus Schwab’s school for revolutionary world leaders

Ever wonder why so many leaders are young, stupid, unaccomplished lefties with thin resumes? Well the explanation may be right here. Not just leaders, but a LOT of ‘health ministers’. Like Canada’s minister of health, who has exactly zero medical training and was in fact, a graphic designer. But somehow, she is a first world country’s minister of health. And we can all see how well that’s going.

Thank you Oz-Rita for the herculean effort required to translate these videos, and RAIR Foundation who wrote it up here really excellently.

Another Dystopia comes true: ‘Solving’ the inequities of math

California Is Planning to ‘De-Mathematize Math.

The spotlight is once again on the State of California and its proposed new mathematics framework for grades K-12. The proposed framework would “de-mathematize math” and encourage the use of a “trauma-informed pedagogy,” as an open letter to Governor Gavin Newsom signed by more than 900 professors of math and science from across California put it. The framework also rejects the idea of natural or innate giftedness among children and discourages allowing students to be placed into accelerated courses even if they have mastered the material covered in the course.

No doubt, this effort to level the playing field stems from a noble desire. Learning to “solve the problems that result in societal inequities” is important. But the fact is, replacing the teaching of actual math with lessons or pedagogies grounded in the work of social justice is an injustice; it’s not justice to force students of vastly different mathematical or other learning capabilities to consume the same material in the same way when we know that learning needs differ from child to child.

The article goes on like that for a while. But the key phrase is: “The framework also rejects the idea of natural or innate giftedness among children and discourages allowing students to be placed into accelerated courses even if they have mastered the material covered in the course”

This would clearly apply to children that may not be gifted, but just interested enough to really apply themselves and get good. To them, being called gifted is an insult to all the work they did. Nonetheless, there will be no reward for any who by inspiration or perspiration, manage to get ahead of the curve.

Anyone who has not read the Kurt Vonnegut Jr. story, Harrison Bergeron, which was written sometime before 1976 if I recall correctly, as that is about when I read it, is well advised to either read it or watch a low resolution version of the film, embedded below. Perhaps you might offer a comment as to its relevance.
