Our World of Lies - Russia Sanctions Hitting US & EU Poor

'It is a fiction that “Western democracies” are self-governing. How can people self-govern when they live in a world governed by false explanations serving hidden agendas?'

By Dr. Paul Craig Roberts: If the inflation narrative we are being fed is true, the sanctions policy of the US government makes no sense as the worst sufferers are the American and European populations who are paying for the supply restrictions in higher prices and interest rates.  

As Russia is an exporter of energy and minerals, higher prices result in more export earnings.  It is Americans and Europeans hit with the high prices who are experiencing the sanctions.

Ask yourself why with supply shortages, disrupted supply chains from the mindless lockdown policy, and rising inflation the US government drove inflation higher by inhibiting supply with sanctions.  Is the cause of the current inflation Federal Reserve money printing or is the cause the reduction in the supply of goods and services caused by Washington’s Covid protocol and “Russian sanctions”?  

Ask yourself why the Biden regime is more concerned about gangster-state Ukraine than it is about the US inflation rate and the welfare of American citizens.

Swedish Prime Minister Admits Progressives' Open Door Policy Has Been A Disastrous Failure After Migrant Riots

Sweden’s progressive open door policy for large numbers of migrants has led to the creation of parallel societies and gang violence, according to Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson.

Authored by Paul Joseph Watson: Andersson made the comments in the aftermath of nationwide riots by migrant gangs over the Easter weekend that left a hundred police officers wounded.

Sweden’s approach to Islamic extremism and its failings in accommodating large numbers of migrants is the primary cause of the disorder, according to the Prime Minister.

“Segregation has gone so far that we have parallel societies in Sweden. We live in the same country, but different realities,” said Andersson.

“Integration was poor, and alongside, we have experienced intense immigration. Our society was too weak, while money for the police and social services too little,” she added.

Orwellian Ministries Of Truth In Effect Around The World

"Fascism Comes Wrapped In A Flag."

Governments around the world pledge to erect ministries of truth over the internet; Canada's bioethicist-driven eugenics agenda continues apace as the euthanasia drive ramps up; and Roe v. Wade threatens to ignite Civil War 2.0 in the US, because feminists want women to have the right to terminate children up to 5 years old.

The Contrarian Curse

What if all the new consensus memes are as wrong as the ones they replaced?

Authored by Charles Hugh Smith: I have the Contrarian Curse, and I have it bad. The Contrarian Curse is: as soon as the herd adopts your previously contrarian view, you start questioning the new consensus, just as you questioned the previous consensus.

Example #1: fiat currencies are doomed. After all, if creating "money" out of thin air solves all our problems, why not just let everyone print as much as they want at home? Oh, wait, only the super-wealthy and powerful get the newly created "money"? Oh, that makes it really sustainable, doesn't it?

Now the hot meme is the US dollar is expiring and gold / commodity-backed currencies will replace it atop the heap. Many of us on the fringes have pondered alternatives to fiat currency, and so this becoming mainstream is a real sea change.

Which immediately arouses my contrarian curse. Ok, so exactly how does a gold/commodity-backed currency work? If gold or wheat declines (as measured in purchasing power to everything else), does the quantity of currency shrink to reflect this decline in value? Can the currency supply only expand if gold/commodities rise in relative value? Can the issuing central bank just keep emitting new currency without expanding the reserves of gold/commodities?

What about private banking creating new "money" by originating new mortgages and other loans? What's backing all this new privately-created "money"?

The Global Kidnapping Of Western Medicine Turns Hospitals Into Killing Fields

We must fight for the Hippocratic Oath or lose all faith in medicine in The West.

On the ground level, patients are reporting patterns of disrespect from their physicians, nurses and other health workers. Worse are the outright maltreatment of patients.
