The only thing that stops violent men from raping you and your society are other men who are equally willing to be violent in stopping the rapists. — Gad Saad

Civilizations die by suicide, not by murder. — Arnold Toynbee

Stupidity defined

“Stupid” generally refers to a lack of intelligence, common sense, or good judgment, often describing actions that are foolish, careless, or irrational. It can denote someone who is slow to learn or understand …

The West’s final IQ test?

The longevity of nations and civilizations has varied widely over the course of human history ranging from a hundred years or so to thousands of years. What is striking is how little serious attention is dedicated to the matter of our collective longevity and the question of what sustains it.

How is it that the subject of our very survival is regarded as anything less than the highest of priorities? Was/is it a case of too many distractions? Or is our society’s seeming indifference regarding its continuance attributable to the fact the majority of people assumed it was/is a given? As will become clear, I’m not among them. Over the course of the last three or four years in particular, I’ve been viewing the West’s prospects as a matter of national and civilizational intelligence or “IQ”. And my conclusion is that chronic stupidity in its various forms is dangerously debilitating. My thesis is:

Virulent or endemic “stupidity” manifests in various forms and is often life-threatening. It can be terminal, not just for individuals and organizations, but also for nations and civilizations. Once the decline has begun, reversal become almost impossible as two symptoms of acute systemic stupidity are blindness and/or indifference to the deteriorating state of one’s society.

In Part 1.0 of this series, I argued that the Covid-vaxx biowar/campaign was, in effect, a real world intelligence test. The results of that test should be troubling as the majority failed it. Seemingly, only about 15-20% of the population in Canada and across the West possessed the discernment and the will to resist what has been proven in many cases to be a physically injurious and in many cases, deadly, albeit planned deception. (It’s understood that some individuals in the of 80-85% were wary of the vaxx but acceded to pressure from their employer in order to retain their jobs and income.)

Those inclined to dismiss this analysis, should read this brief extract from a 1981 interview that Michael Salomon conducted with Jacques Attali, the French-Jewish ‘shadow president of France’. Note the latter’s disdainful reference to and expectations of those he describes as “the weak”, “the fearful” and “the stupid”.

The future will be about finding a way to reduce the population … Of course, we will not be able to execute people or build camps. We get rid of them by making them believe it is for their own good…. We will find or cause something, a pandemic targeting certain people, real economic crisis or not, a virus affecting the old or the elderly, it doesn’t matter, the weak and the fearful will succumb to it. The stupid will believe in it and asked to be treated. We will have taken care to have planned the treatment that was the solution. The selection of idiots will therefore be done by itself: they will go to the slaughter-house on their own.“

The demons that stalked us in the the eighties didn’t abruptly abandon their vision for the future of the planet. They play for keeps. Consequently, I suggest we view the mass migration campaign embraced by the West (2014 to present) as another feature of the globalist agenda and another real world IQ test. It may in fact be the ultimate test. Given that the real world seldom allows for do-overs, I suggest that failing the mass migration test could be fatal. If so, it’s not unreasonable to conclude that countries that have embraced and continue to embrace mass migration policies to their now obvious detriment were/are, in effect, too stupid to live.And by extension, the same conclusion could be reached regarding Western civilization as a whole.

Assessing the adverse impacts of mass migration policies

I see nothing in the West’s embrace of mass migration that suggests the policy was the product of strategic foresight and diligent planning and execution. The window in which strategic foresight was critical closed long ago. Now, it’s time for an honest assessment of the policy’s impacts. I’ll leave it to others to celebrate it’s merits. I’m interested in mass migration’s adverse effects on Western nations and the threat it may pose to their individual and collective futures. And while it will be far from a comprehensive, this analysis will be free of the usual politically-correct inflections, rationalizations and denial.

Such an assessment is late by at least a decade. In reality, serious scrutiny should have been triggered by what occurred on New Years eve 2015-2016 in Cologne, Germany. That night, approximately 1,200 women were reported to have been sexually assaulted. While these women were in public spaces, they were surrounded and assaulted by large groups of men. Those responsible were identified by officials as: “… Muslim men of Arab or North African origin.” The Cologne police chief did his best to rationalize, and semi-normalize the assaults. Here’s his sanitized account of the event.

“…the Cologne police chief suggested that the perpetrators had come from countries where such sexual assaults by groups of men against women are common. That suggestion was confirmed in a Federal Criminal Police Office report in June 2016, which also identified five more factors contributing to the occurrence of the attacks: group pressure, absence of police intervention, frustrations of migrants, disinhibition caused by alcohol and/or drug use, and disinhibition due to lack of social ties with indigenous German society.” (Wikipedia)

In retrospect, three features of Cologne’s night of infamy were noteworthy in that they foreshadowed ugly developments that became increasingly apparent during the next decade. And they remain true today. The first is the obvious disregard of the newcomers for their adoptive country’s societal norms. The second, consistent with this, is the marked difference between the frequency of sexual violence perpetrated against women by migrants versus native German males. (The incidence of rape in Germany increased by approximately 72 percent between 2018 and 2025.) And the third was the cowardly, almost traitorous response of the country’s authorities which attempted to sanitize the behaviour of the predatory newcomers. Ultimately, authorities largely shifted responsibility for the security of German citizens to the citizens of the country themselves. Thus, German girls were subsequently advised to exercise greater vigilance in the vicinity of male refugees, wear rape whistles and take other personal safety precautions.

The Cologne incident should have been a flashing red alert for all the West. It wasn’t, as the migrant importation campaign continued unabated across the West until the present. Some European countries like Hungary and Poland, however, wisely declined the open door EU immigration policy despite the pressures. Today, Polish politicians celebrate their nation’s prescience and citizens of migrant-inundated EU countries look enviously at the relative tranquility of the rogue nations. But for the majority of Western nations, as of year end 2016, the hard lessons of mass migration were yet to be learned and even farther from being decisively acted upon.

The mass migration crime problem

It’s apparent that the mass migration policies implemented across Western nations over the last 15 or so years have resulted in marked surges in the crimes statistics of host nations. Champions of the policy will, like the Cologne police chief, offer many explanations for the crime problems. — everything except cultural incompatibility. of course. The hard reality is that none of their alternative explanations, to my knowledge. has led to a lessening of the problem or meaningful solutions.

The culture clash however, should have been expected and was no doubt anticipated by the architects of the mass migration campaign. The West’s mass migrant-welcoming nations can be characterized as possessing open, technologically-advanced, liberal, high-trust, merit-based cultures based on Christian values. How exactly are such cultures compatible with those of migrants from Northern Africa and Muslim nations like Afghanistan, Syria, and Pakistan, for example? The stark differences should be apparent to anyone who has objectively compared these nations with Western nations on any basis. It could be history, social norms, politics, governance, religious beliefs, gender relationships, worldviews, world contributions, aspirations or “other”. By almost any measure, the differences are real and the contrasts obvious. The onus is on those who promote mass migration to demonstrate the compatibility between the native culture and those of would-be migrants.

The headlines and article extracts cited below on the subject demonstrate first and foremost that mass migration brings a dramatic increase in crime. The second is that among their crimes, there’s an obvious propensity toward rape. Again, there’s no surprise here in that the Islamic view of the status of women differs significantly from the Christian view. And the fact that Western women are uncovered, means they may be treated as “fair game” by Muslim men. Rape is frequently described as a weapon of war. If so, the war is going badly for Western women. Most are unlikely unaware they’re caught in the midst of an intense conflict with outcomes potentially exceeding those of previous world wars.

Gang shootings, rapes and no-go zones? Government blamed as Sweden battles crime wave (RT, July, 2018)

In Germany, Despite comprising roughly 14.6 percent of the population, foreign migrants were responsible for 58.5 percent of all violent crimes. (May 2024)

Sadly, Japan is going to be experiencing a crime wave similar to what is happening in Europe, led by Muslim and black criminals because a small minority of the Japanese elite want to remake Japan … (May 2024)

NYC: “Rapes spike 11% in NYC in just one year, as fallout from weaponized mass migration worsens” (July 2024)

Foreigners make up 31% of Italy’s prison population, largely from Africa and North Africa, and 67.5% of crimes committed by foreigners are attributed to illegal immigrants. Overall, they account for about 30% of all crimes nationwide. Among minors, the problem is even more severe: non-EU youths represent only 1.5% of Italy’s population but are responsible for 65% of muggings, 50% of thefts, 48% of robberies, 47% of sexual assaults, and 40% of physical attacks committed by their age group. (November 2025)

UK: The Office for National Statistics (ONS) reported a 4% rise in total crime in England and Wales for the year ending March 2025, with knife crime up 7% and shoplifting soaring 24% to 470,000 incidents. (July 21, 2025)

England and Wales: Over 100,000 foreign national convictions in just three years (2021-2023) (March 2025)

Crimes of rape tripled in three years across Spain (May 2025)

Foreigners now commit nearly half of all rapes in Austria; Syrians largest group of suspects (April 2, 2026)

Crime wave in Sweden: Government’s immigration policy blamed for gang shootings, rapes and no-go zones

In fact, sexual offences in Ireland increased by 17% between 2017 and 2018.

All but the most ideologically-blind and deaf would find it hard to deny the reality of predatory migrant behaviour towards women and Western society in general. The adverse outcomes from more than a dozen years of mass migration are many however, and extend far beyond the litany of rapes, assaults, theft, murders, drug dealing and gang shootings.

Much more than an intractable crime problem

It’s unlikely that Western governments will ever provide their citizens with full and honest accounting of all the costs and negative consequences associated with the mass migration. The political leaders and bureaucrats responsible for the policy were/are too controlled, too indoctrinated, too self-interested and too cowardly and insecure to hold to truth and transparency. Thus the spin continues. This essay is intended to highlight some of the costs and adverse consequences of mass migration and characterize the threat it poses to the West. In doing so, it will perhaps render undiscussable subjects more discussable, while encouraging others to initiate conversations on a taboo subject.

As noted above, the most apparent adverse result of mass migration is an unmanageable crime problem with an off-the-charts incidence of rape and assaults topping the list. Mass migration in Western nations, with particular attention to Canada, is also resulting in or contributing to:

• An annual drain of billions of dollars in government budgetary expenditures: This is the cost of providing newcomers with accommodations in asylum hotels, monthly family living allowances, healthcare and other “essential” goods and services. The annual cost ranges widely depending upon the country. Ireland’s government is spending more than €1 billion every five years. It costs the Canadian government $6.34 billion annually and the US government reportedly spent more than $66 billion on immigration in 2023.
• Housing shortages and inflated house prices: An influx of migrants has made purchase of a first home for young adults and families difficult ,if not impossible. A Federal Reserve working paper suggests the Biden illegal immigrant wave caused 30% increase in house prices.
• A demand overload on the physical and social infrastructure: It’s not simply a matter of insufficient classroom space, but also the need for more teachers, social workers, police officers, health care workers, and judicial system personnel. For example, I hear friends reporting the inconvenience of long waiting lines for health care and public services. I read of teachers in some European centres with large migrant populations reporting they are overwhelmed with the challenge of managing over-crowded classrooms with a majority of immigrant children lacking language skills and amenable to the behavioural norms of their classrooms. And I read that the failure to prosecute a majority of offenders in the UK Justice system is due to system overload. We also read that migrants are pouring into Ireland in the midst of a housing crisis “putting immense pressure on every aspect of the nation’s infrastructure.”
• Outmigration/displacement of the native population: According to the 2026 “Youth in Germany” (Jugend in Deutschland) study, for example, 21%are actively planning to leave to find a better life, while 41% can imagine moving abroad in the longer term due to economic anxiety and high housing costs. A 2026 study by the German Center for Integration and Migration Studies found that 17% of the native German population has considered leaving. Stats Canada reports that annual net outmigration for that country has reached 120,000.
• Devaluation and displacement of the domestic cultures and religious values
• An exodus of businesses and investment dollars from the country: For example, Canada’s poorly conceived and managed immigration policy is antagonistic to Canadian business and investment interests. In general, the country’s policy mix and governance are displacing skilled professionals, entrepreneurs and investment while replacing its high value human resources with an abundance of unskilled, low skilled and under-qualified migrants. It’s a costly tradeoff. For more on the subject of the country’s loss of business and investment, see Jack Mintz’s “How do we stop business and capital from heading south?”
• A lack of jobs and thus higher unemployment for native students in the food services and hospitality sectors in particular: Canadian students seeking summer employment with the Tim Hortons restaurant chain in Canada, for example, must now compete with 4,000 East Indian workers employed under the federal government’s temporary foreign workers program.
• Wholesale looting of social programs and benefits: Minnesota’s Somali’s community has been engaged in fraudulent abuse of social services estimated to have cost US taxpayers $1 billion. The US Department of Justice has charged nearly 100 individuals — the majority of which are of Somali descent. Total losses could add up to $9 billion. This wasn’t petty theft. Nor were the proceeds used to buy necessities for needy kids. Rather they were used to fund lavish lifestyles, high end real estate purchases and the purchase of luxury vehicles. Yes, there were also native white perps. That said, I surmise that on average, the commitment of native Minnesotans to responsible stewardship of government resources, financial or otherwise, would be significantly stronger than that of Somali immigrants. The producer of Bantu City Diaries finds that in general Africans are less civic-minded, as reflected in the deteriorated state of their cities. This lends credence to the notion that African migrants are likely to possess a relatively weaker sense of civic duty and patriotic attachment to their adopted country. Elsewhere, in Austria for example, it’s reported that 84% of welfare fraud suspects are immigrants. (See “Suicidal Empathy …”)
• The fragmentation and religious colonization of communities: While historically migrant populations tend to cluster, it can be problematic when newcomers lack English-speaking skills and prefer to insulate and isolate themselves from the larger community. I suggest that this, in effect, shrinks the common ground of community members and erodes social cohesion. The introduction of a system of Sharia governance for enclaves of Muslim migrants and its subsequent coercive application to the wider community is a form of religious colonization and conquest. It’s not simply that Islamic values differ from core Christian values, it’s that religious Islamic governance under Sharia law is incompatible with with secular Western governance.
• Reduced national literacy rate and collective IQ: Consider that, “The number of people who are illiterate in Sweden is expected to exceed 800,000 in winter of this year, with researchers expecting the number to soon reach 1 million.” Thus the country has literally become measurably less literate (“stupider’) due to mass migration.
• Reduced professional and occupational standards:It’s not unusual to read of immigrant use of falsified professional credentials (for starters, many lied to get into the country). One also reads of unqualified or non-credentialed foreign imposters infiltrating the fields of education and health care. Then there’s the DEI-inspired lowering of standards to accommodate minorities including immigrants. Tragic commercial truck and bus accidents have put a spotlight on the failure of license certification systems in Canada and the US to screen out inadequately trained, inexperienced irresponsible immigrant drivers. The Humboldt Broncos hockey team bus crash of 2018 is a case in point. It killed 16 passengers and injured 14 leading to the driver’s conviction on 29 criminal charges. (See “Sidhu tells victims….”
• An unsustainable long term economic burden on the country: Years of state-supported mass migration and the associated multiplicity of costs can lead to economic collapse. We read for example that Germany has added between 5.5 million and 6 million people to its population since 2014 (the equivalent of absorbing a population equal to that of Denmark). It’s been costly: “Germany’s cities are collapsing under a €30 billion deficit in 2025, and even mayors of the neoliberal, pro-mass migration, ‘center right’ party … are finally admitting the globalist system they helped create has driven the Europe’s strongest economy straight into the wall.” (See: “How globalist mass migration policies are turning Germany into a third-world welfare colony“)
• Degraded lifestyles: Elevated crime levels inevitably mean citizens are less secure and correspondingly less able to enjoy the personal freedoms that were once a given in their country. This includes the freedom of young women to walk about their cities and towns and enjoy public spaces including parks for example without the scourge of “sex pests”. (There’s no shortage of social media posts from young, white women live-streaming for their own protection while being harassed by male immigrants.)
• Increased government censorship and suppression of speech rights and freedoms: Migrant-embracing Western governments have seemingly adopted two-tiered policies favouring immigrants. One now reads reads that in some countries, the monthly allowances paid to migrants significantly exceed pensions issued to their own dependent citizens. We also read of instances where citizens who criticize the conduct of foreigners (deemed “hate-speech”) are being more harshly treated by the courts than convicted criminal newcomers. (See: “Activist/Journalist, James Havey arrested …”) Instances where special treatment by the courts have been followed by repeat crimes (assault, stabbings, rape, homicide) have served to fuel growing public outrage and a corresponding loss of confidence in national governments.
• Additional national security risks: Suffice to say a significant percentage of migrants to the West have not been adequately vetted. They have either unlawfully penetrated porous borders, deceived credulous or overloaded immigration officers or eluded or defeated the country’s screening systems. We repeatedly read that large groups of migrants entering the West are “fighting-age” men without wives and children. I have also read of covert arms and armaments shipments into certain countries., Ireland being one. Thus, mass migration has introduced a national security threat of unknown proportions.
• Reduced appeal as an international tourist destination for host nations
• Partial/selective assimilation and persistence of inhumane religious practices:There’s an assumption and an expectation that migrant populations assimilate into the host society adopting the culture, language and core values of the dominant culture. The promoters of mass migration contend that the extending citizenship to migrants, in the interests of “diversity” enriches the domestic culture and improves the lives and lifestyles of migrants and their children. This is a misleading assumption in that migration’s motivations may be mixed. Specifically, they may be drawn to the West for economic reasons while retaining a deep-seated distain for liberal Western values. This is is apparent where tenets of migrants’ religion clash with Western beliefs, values and practices including the latter’s conception of human rights.

Author, Naomi Wolf found the persistence of age-old cultural practices among Somali immigrants living in the US disheartening. (See: “A Stop Over in the Heartland”). While the Somalis enjoyed vastly improved lives and including good paying jobs, she reports that the tradition of extreme genital mutilation of young girls continues. The practice is banned in Minnesota, but Somali families have a work-around. Young girls are now sent outside the US for “vacation cutting”.

Canada — a cautionary tale

Canada reduced its temporary resident arrivals and fixed its permanent resident target at 380,000 in 2026. This was after admitting about 4 million immigrants during the previous decade and roughly half a million a year based on its 2022 plan. It’s reached the point where approximately 23% of the Canadian population is foreign born. It’s not surprising then that the country is experiencing the full array of migrant issues plaguing Europe and flagged above. And while official denial reigns, it’s taken a toll. Charles Lammam, a Canadian economic and public policy researcher observes:

“Recently, the 2026 World Happiness Report showed Canada dropping to 25th overall. Back in 2012, we were 5th. As economic output per person has stagnated, performance on everything from health care wait times to violent crime severity has deteriorated alongside it.” It invites the question: “What happened”? Canadian tech entrepreneur and author, Mark Jeftovic, contends that “energy” was Canada’s single biggest failure. How does a country sitting on the fourth largest oil reserves end up importing between 500K and 600K barrels/day from the US? But he considers Immigration the smelly elephant in the room, “Canada’s masterpiece.”

“For decades we skimmed the cream of the planet. Skilled, educated, motivated people from every culture and country, selected through a points system that drilled down on simple KPI: can you come here, integrate, and build something? Successful applicants kept their heritage, celebrated it, added it to the mix, …and got to work. We took people on humanitarian grounds too, generously so, but never more than we could economically and culturally absorb.“

Former British Columbia MLA, Renee Merrifield and CEO of Troika Group would agree on both points. In her assessment, Canada has been on the trajectory of “a managed decline for the last decade”. It’s management of its natural resources is indicative. The country’s decline can be attributed in part to the government’s failure to consider how immigration and domestic migration trends interact with the economy and housing.

The “failing” verdict on Canada ‘s performance didn’t await an official government announcement. It was rendered by wide awake Canadians and foreign observers. Many of the former have voted with their feet. It’s reflected in their decisions to relocate their homes, employment, businesses and investments out of country. (Merrifield notes that 155,000 educated professionals have already left over a five year period leading up to 2025 and early 2026.) Stats Canada reports that “overall global emigration out of Canada topped a record 120,000 people annually. (See: “Canada is scooping up gravel….” and other references on the movement of people and investment from Canada). Ironically or tellingly, approximately 99.5% of our “elbows up” Prime Minister’s investment holdings are outside of Canada.

There’s something salutary in the politically-incorrect, candid assessments of ordinary citizens and critics unaffected by Canadian propagandists. A professional hockey player who played on both sides of the border finds the Canadian pretence of moral superiority off-putting and the country’s policy perspective short-sighted. Canadian Alex West, a self-identified retired structural engineer, who has lived and done business internationally comments, “I think Canada has failed the IQ test — miserably.” American comic Rob Schneider calls out “dumb Canadian retards” and the country where the government offers same day assisted suicide. Talk show host, Bill Maher declares, “After 11 years of Trudeau-Carney, Canada has become the laughing stock of the world.” It seems that the only debate among Canada’s harshest critics would be whether the country is terminally ill, stupid or completely insane.

In summary, Canada’s record of the last decade is objectively seen as a cautionary tale, the result of misguided, incoherent and ultimately self-harming, woke, leftist policies. It’s something the majority has yet to accept. And it leaves me wondering if the on-going burden of the country’s migrant population will be the dead weight that destines Canada to a state of permanent economic malaise. Contrary to what some would have us believe, immigrants from undeveloped and developing countries don’t quickly transition from the “dependent” to “productive contributing citizen” category. The social and economic burden can continue for years. (See: “Denmark studied 321 Palestinian refugees for 30 years — the results weren’t what they expected” and “Suicidal empathy: Three quarters of refugee-linked households in Vienna rely on taxpayer handouts”.)

Resistance rising — near-boiling frogs awaken

The history of the West over the last 15 years or so of mass migration is one of denial, looking the other way and studiously ignoring signs of pending disaster. The Unhappy New Year celebration in Cologne in 2015-16 was just one indication of the inevitable clash between migrant cultures and motivations and those underpinning Western nations.

Metaphorically, at least some of the frogs in the now-simmering multicultural pot on the stove have glimpsed their future and despite the official denial and “racist” smears, there’s no unseeing it. The possibility of their displacement and the erasure of Western culture is now discernable. According to Eurostat, as of January 1, 2025, 46.7 million people living in Europe were born outside the country. This is about 10.4% of Europe’s population of 450.6 million people. The percentage of the population with immigrant backgrounds living in large cities in Europe is much higher than the average. Conservative political critic, Eva Vlaardingerbroek cites the migrant populations in cities like Amsterdam (56%); The Hague (58%); Rotterdam (almost 60%). With London at 54% and Brussels at 70% as indicative of the future. She concludes, “The Great Replacement Theory is no longer a theory. It is fact.”

Those aware of the pattern and its negative outcomes for Western society are rightly feeling nervous, angry, and betrayed by traitorous political leaders and their national governments. Courtesy of social media, the masses are awakening to the nature of the political psy op. Their adversaries’ accusations of “racism” and “bigotry” are losing their effect. Street-level resistance and the demand for change are growing. Consider for example:

• A CSA poll conducted for CNews, Europe 1 and JDD, found that 76 percent of French people overall want the army called in to battle drug trafficking in “disadvantaged neighbourhoods.” The percentage support from French woman is 80 percent.
• Sixty-seven per cent of Britons believe immigration is “too high”. Farage’s promise to deport foreign criminals is backed by 37% of poll respondents.
• The number of migrant hotels that have been torched in Northern Ireland since 2018 now exceeds 40.
• Protesting crowds in Netherlands chant what many in their population are thinking by now, “I want my country back”!
• Patriotic nationalist groups are forming to push for an end to mass migration in favour of re-migration. The Dominion Society of Canada is one example.
• European politics is becoming more conservative, nationalistic and Euro-centric. The rise of Germany’s AfD Party is indicative of the shifting tide. Patriots for Europehas become the third largest political alliance in the European Parliament. On June 17, the EU parliament formally adopted the European Return Regulation to “harden immigration rules and quicken deportation”. And a group of Pan-European activists are campaigning under the banner of Save Europe Act to gather the 1 million petition signatures across seven member states required in order to “compel an institutional EU review”. The group has collected almost 600,000 signatures to date.
• Denmark’s government is considering a ban on Islamic call to pray and bouka and niquab in classrooms while Sweden ponders paying immigrants to go back home.
• Portugal has approved a ban on burkas in public spaces.
• The Trump administration has publicly commitment to the “largest deportation program in American history”.
• Ireland (as noted earlier) and Britain are in a state of revolt with an expectation the new PM will take action regarding the Independent Inquiry Rape Gang Inquiry Report. Because the crimes contained in the report are, among other things, linked to England’s immigrant Pakistani community, it is likely to increase UK support for tougher immigration laws, deportation and re-migration.

I can’t name a European nation that’s supported mass migration that hasn’t witnessed riots, anti-migration protests or other forms of resistance to the national policy. The push back manifests in many forms. In some cities, locals have organized volunteers to patrol their streets to protect members of the public. In some locations, vigilant citizens are administering “light” street justice and turning migrants predators preying on children or young woman over to police. As frustration with migrant crime and abuses continues, the severity of street justice being administered is likely to increase.

It’s not unusual to see videos of Irish men chasing loitering migrants considered potential predators out of playgrounds and away from school yards. Citizen patrol efforts are not enough, however, because young women in Germany and the UK for example continue to live-stream videos of male migrant (“sex pests”) harassing them. Oddly, not that long ago, “me-to” feminists in the US were labelling it a “rapist culture”. They seemed to have overlooked the migrant cultures they were welcoming into the West.

An awakened citizenry’s rejection of the multicultural delusion and its self-defeating gospel of “diversity” is also playing out in social media debates. “Truther” memes and maxims with incisive messages are widely shared. A photo or video of an intoxicated migrant standing in the street threatening passers-by with a machete or defecating is ammunition for truth warriors. Their satirists respond with captioning such performances a skeptical reference to “future doctor”, “engineer”, “architect” or “scholar”. And amid the satire bullets, social media political commentator, Zachary McRae states the conclusion “Immigration without integration is invasion”.

The satirical captions beneath images of migrant crime and misconduct echo the 2015 pre-election advisory of candidate, Donald Trump. His understatement. “They’re not sending their best” drew attention to the calibre of migrants entering the US from Mexico. The same might be said of the quality of migrants entering the West from Northern Africa and the Middle East. And the meme that best captures the likely result is: Import the third world, become the third world. For those with eyes that see the deterioration of once clean and relatively safe city streets in Europe, the UK and Canada, it’s increasingly difficult to refute the claim.

American economist, social theorist, and political commentator, Thomas Sewell sums up the mood of Westerners, Whites in particular, who increasingly see mass migration as a white replacement. Sewell observes: “The average person is not okay with what is happening, and White people in Australia and around the world are rightfully upset and frustrated.” It’s noteworthy that increasingly, first generation immigrants in the West are publicly voicing their concerns about the implications of permissive Western immigration policies. Some are sufficiently disheartened with Canada’s decline for example, they tell those who may be considering following in their footsteps to stay home.

Some foreign observers with the same backgrounds as migrants entering EU and other Western nations are puzzled by the passivity or timidity of White Westerners in particular. The Nigerian social critic, commentator and producer of Bantu City Diaries, examined the displacement of the the native white British population in numerous communities in London and wondered aloud “why white people are so tolerant”. Others are perhaps concerned by Westerners naiveté. African-American social commentator, Frank Zanu, has publicly told fellow African Americans, they would have much to worry about if “their people” (Africans) ever became a majority in the US. The implication is the country’s decline would be assured. Zanu invites his critics to ponder the current state of any African country. He is, in this observation, confirming the popular meme. If a first world nation imports third world populations in sufficient numbers, it will become like the third world.

Until recently, with a few key exceptions, Western politicians and governments have been relatively blind and deaf to the concerns or their citizens regarding the outcomes of mass migration. They better learn to read the room. The public temperature is rising. Armstrong Williams, writing in Zero Hedgewarns, “What is unfolding across parts of Europe, particularly in the UK under Prime Minister Keir Starmer, should serve as a warning to every Western democracy wrestling with questions of immigration, national identity, social cohesion, and the limits of political tolerance.” The limits of political tolerance have now been reached and are about to be breached. But directing all of their anger at migrants or even national leaders would be misguided. Ultimately, we must search out their puppet masters, the beneficiaries, the string pullers and the architects behind the weaponization of migration and its operations.

A sobering conclusion

Western nations, Canada included, have in general, failed the big IQ tests of our time. The biggest one, because it deceptively possessed the greatest destructive power is mass migration. Our leaders have long ignored the prescient advice of discerning citizens and critics, the experiences of other countries and the lessons of history. Enslavement and death are the usual fates reserved for those who ignore the proverbial canaries in the coal mine or act too late regarding the writing on the wall. The law of reaping what one sows has never been repudiated. And we will continue to reap more of what we have experienced over the past decade. The harvest of assault, rape, murder, theft, fraud, and budgetary expense will continue to grow. The reality is that the costs and consequences associated with mass migration have become unsustainable.

The leftist political partisans, parasites, propagandists, paid promoters, sold out politicians, profiteers and useful “woke” idiots have, until now at least, ruled the day. Their lies, deceptions, delusion and treachery overwhelmed the objections of quieter patriotic conservatives. If the West remains in their thrall and on the current path, it will be complicit in its own conquest. And the outcome will have been achieved without a kinetic struggle, confirming Toynbee’s observation that Civilizations die by suicide, not by murder.

The primary means whereby the West will be destroyed isn’t complicated. It’s explained in a November 2025 article in the on-line magazine, The Burning Platformentitled, “If demographics is destiny — we’re screwed”. The disparate rates of reproduction of Western nations, which are failing to replace themselves, and the immigrant populations is the mechanism. The author states:

The illiterate, mud hut dwellers are pumping out more illiterate 3rd worlders at a rate five to six times as high as the rich developed world countries. With a required replacement rate of 2.1, in order to maintain a static population, the U.S. and most of the countries in the developed world are in a self imposed death spiral.

We didn’t get here over night or by accident. The track was laid down over a period of decades. The author explains that since the fifties, a “globalist cabal” has shaped the social-political context leading to the destruction of the West (more on the architects of our fate in Part 3.0)

The data is dire for the Western world and Asia, particularly China, Taiwan, South Korea, and Singapore. The U.S. fertility rate is at an all-time low, down 55% from its peak in 1957. It is down 40% since the early 1970s, when women, brainwashed by feminist tripe, joined the workforce in droves, and murdered 63 million of their unborn children, in the name of women’s rights. This is what the woman’s movement, created by the globalist cabal to advance their agenda of destroying the western world and replacing it with their one world order, has wrought.

Ordinary citizens in the West had no vote in their nations’ decisions to adopt mass migration policies and they derive no obvious net benefit. What is obvious is their quality of life has declined, their legacy discounted, their culture displaced and their nations burdened with intractable problems and growing expenditures. The obvious conclusion: Mass migration is an existential threat to Western civilization and native populations and cultures. Again, we were warned. JD Vance, addressed the 61st annual Munich Security Conference in February of 2025 urging his audience to make mass migration a top priority. “And of all the pressing challenges that nations represented here face, I believe that it’s nothing more urgent than mass migration.”

His remarks should have carried additional weight given the timing. The day before the conference, an Afghani asylum seeker had rammed his car into a crowd of German protestors, killing a mother and her young daughter and injuring 44. Referring to the the attack, Vance asked: “How many times must we suffer these appalling setbacks before we change course and take our shared civilization in a new direction?”

Put differently, Vance was lamenting: “when will we ever learn!” The ability to learn is a defining feature of intelligence. So the real questions becomes: Are we as nations and a civilization still capable of learning and change. Or, in the language of my former boss: “Are we (collectively) too stupid to live? There’s no joy in sharing my conclusion, but there’s also no defence in denial.

I believe that barring divine intervention and a revival of the spirit of the West sufficient to ignite a righteous patriot revolution, our nations are destined for early death and our civilization is destined for extinction. And if that occurs, the appropriately-worded epitaph would read: too stupid to live. That said, the embers of what once made the West great aren’t yet fully extinguished, so the Resisters’ struggle will continue. But make no mistake as to the challenge that infectious, chronic stupidity presents according to Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion in that it leaves behind in human beings at least a sense of unease….Against stupidity we are defenceless.

Westerners have been in a long stupor — propagandized, paralyzed and puppeted by our globalist overlords and their minions. This was their plan. This essay is intended to serve as an alarm awakening those who remain entranced. You may have heard it said that the prospect of a hanging in the morning clarifies the mind. We’ll soon find out if it’s true. I’ve described the prospect and means of our figurative “hanging” and my watch says it’s about five minutes to midnight.

How Evil is Your Organization?

Calvin Mulligan, May 11, 2026 (c) All rights reserved

How evil is your organization? Seriously? There’s a subtlety to the infiltration and progression of evil within the walls of organizations and institutions that seemingly eludes many in leadership. Consider, for example, that at one point in 2021-22, the president of one of Canada’s leading medical associations congratulated the membership for its outstanding contribution to combatting Cov*d. It was mind-boggling moment for the critical observer.

As one of the many “civilians” who remained clear-eyed and objective concerning the toll the lockdo*ns and magical vaxx solution were taking in injuries and lives, it felt like the president was living on another planet. In reality, the medical institution was, at the national level, blissfully presiding over what likely will be judged the most grotesque medical crime in human history with casualties world-wide numbering in the tens of millions.

Similar detachments from truth and corresponding moral inversions were, and remain on display in the realms of education, justice, religion, entertainment, academia and “other”. The question is how to account for the phenomenon when it’s not necessarily a case of evil actors or psychopaths?

Author, analyst and IT network thought leader, Martin Geddes, provides an answer in a recent article entitled: “A diagnostic scale of institutional evil”. The subtitle sums his thesis nicely. “Wickedness no longer requires monsters, only machinery”. Thus, as Geddes puts it, removing pathological elements may not necessarily restore institutional integrity. His article calibrates institutional degradation from right-side-up, grounded purpose and operation to detached moral inversion and institutional evil. Geddes identifies tangible markers in a each of the five stages in the decline to unconscious institutional evil.

I recently stated I would rejoice if RFK Jr. elected to bl*w up the CDC and the FDA, both of which have exemplified institutional evil. My measure of utility and licence to operate is simple. When it become apparent that significantly improved client and public outcomes would result if the institution in question were destroyed, its prompt disassembly becomes a moral imperative.

Hopefully, your organization hasn’t reached the advanced stages of degradation, but you may be surprised at what an audit may uncover. To ensure it doesn’t, share the five level diagnostic scale with your director of Organizational Development and recommend its application. It could have two beneficial outcomes. First, you may be able to arrive at a realistic indication of where your organization is situated on the scale. Second, flagging indicators of degradation and enacting the necessary corrective measures could be life-giving and soul-energizing for your organization and your employees.

The Lisa Beaumont Story, by Calvin Mulligan, April 24, 2026 (c) draft All Rights Reserved 

I feel like I don’t belong in the this world — I’m here but I don’t belong. — Lisa

Early years

Note: Names of individuals have been changed to protect their privacy.

Lisa, the first of seven children born to Jean-Philippe and Marie-Anne Beaumont of Ottawa, arrived on December 15, 1960. The family’s circumstances at the time were far from welcoming for baby Lisa. Jean-Philippe, an alcoholic and chronic wife abuser, was incapable of fulfilling the role of father. His stints in jail and regular weekend booze parties in the family home made the possibility of a normal childhood for Lisa remote. So, it was decided that her maternal grandparents would become her caregivers, an arrangement that remained in place for significant segments of her childhood. 

Their home became Lisa’s home for the first six years of her life and again from age 12 to 15 years. During the interval she lived with her parents, her grandparents’ home remained her weekend refuge as that’s when Jean-Philippe hosted parties with his coworkers in the family home. Looking back, Lisa recalls the occasion, at the age five or six, when her grandfather told her, “Today, you’re going to meet someone … it’s your dad”. I can’t imagine what might have gone through the mind of this young child as she pondered meeting this stranger. 

Jean-Phillippe, the product of a dysfunctional home, was a man with a reputation. At one point, his drinking antics earned him the nickname “Shotgun”. (It wasn’t until his fifties that Jean-Phillippe had his come-to-Jesus moment and changed his ways.) Unsurprisingly then, it fell to Lisa’s grandparents to provide her with some semblance of security, stability and instruction in life’s basics. It was her grandparents who took her to church regularly, taught her the virtues of hard work and thrift, helped her set up her first bank account and encouraged her in her school work. 

Lisa recalls feeling that she was different from her peers for her entire life. She doesn’t recollect ever identifying with one of the various student cliques in junior high or high school. She had a circle of friends, but she didn’t necessarily conform to their thinking or behaviour. Lisa recalled, for example, that on occasion she would skip class and join her friends when they would sneak into the bush to smoke pot. Yet she refrained from the pot-smoking.

At age 17, Lisa lost the two familial pillars in her life. Her grandmother, “memère, passed in April of 1978 and her grandfather, “pepère”, committed suicide in September of that year. With her grade 11 completed and both grandparents gone, Lisa found her life tilting in a new direction. She had begun dating a classmate named Bernie, during her first year of high school. The relationship progressed to the point that they began cohabitating later that year and were married in 1979. 

Marriage, kids and career 

Lisa operated a flower arrangement business from the basement of their home while Bernie worked for the Parks and Recreation Department of their township. Their marriage produced two sons, Jules and Marcel within four years, ending abruptly on November 13 of 1985. Lisa had returned home from a coffee visit with a friend to discover a note from Bernie on the top of the stove. It said she had one week to pack her things and move out. It was decided that Bernie would be keeping the two boys. With help from Legal Aid, Lisa navigated the divorce process to a conclusion in early 1987.

By that point, Lisa was enjoying the company of her dad’s neighbour, Tyler. The two  married in August of 1987. Her second marriage produced a third son, Edward, and unfortunately it would have an even shorter life than the first. It came to an end four years later when Tylor decided that he wanted out. Their divorce was finalized in August of 1992. So, by the age of 32, Lisa was a twice-divorced mother in need of work. Looking back, she recalls multiple occasions amid the turbulence, when she felt like she wanted to die. It seems she was haunted by something psychologists would describe as an unhealed “father wound”.

Lisa and Tyler agreed that he would remain in their apartment and Lisa would move into an apartment one floor above. Tyler applied for welfare and took care of their young son, Edward. Lisa found employment in a local Ottawa flower shop. The income supplemented her part time job at a local hospital, which became a full time job later that year. In 1995, Lisa’s career moved in a different direction. She became a bartender at a motel in Vanier district of the city, and earned her certificate in bartending. 

Two years later, in 1997, Lisa began work as a bartender with an expanded list of job duties at at another Vanier bar. About a year later, she began dating Marty, a winter regular at the bar. Marty moved into Lisa’s apartment in 1999. In 2003, Marty  bought a swimming pool business and Lisa became office assistant. According to Lisa, the business had real potential. Marty, however, lacked the aptitude or the patience required to provide good customer service and it steadily declined, leaving Lisa to manage the winding up of the business.  

With the pool business no longer viable, Lisa found herself looking for a job again. This time she landed one with Lumsden Brothers Cash ‘n Carry in Ottawa, a subsidiary of Sobey’s. The job was short-lived. When the store was sold in March of 2006, she found work at a new Sobey’s store in Orleans. It would also be also short-lived. Within the year, she learned of a job opportunity at a residential care home in Orleans. So, Lisa resigned and joined the care home’s housekeeping department in June of 2009. 

A confrontation and decline

Marty and Lisa’s common law relationship followed a similar pattern of decline to that of the pool business leading to a separation at one point followed by reconciliation. But the relationship remained troubled. Things came to a head in the spring of 2016. Lisa had become aware of Marty’s cheating, and confronted him about his texting other women. The two continued to cohabit for an additional seven years, but their relationship spiralled steadily downward. It was a period marked by frequent bickering and increasing wine consumption on Lisa’s part.  

The pressures in her life culminated in new stressful highs in 2018 and 2019 due to a combination of developments. She and Marty were often bickering about his outside love interests. Her son, Marcel, had acquired a serious drug problem and was also showing symptoms of bipolar disorder. Lisa had been left to pick up the tab when he failed to make the payments for a new truck purchase. And to top things off, a supportive male friend exited Lisa’s life. The barometer of her distress, her daily wine consumption, had now reached a litre or more on occasions.

Temperature rising

In December of 2019, Lisa decided to accompany her youngest son, Edward, to Boca Chica, Dominican Republic. It would be a chance to get away from some of the pressures in her life. Edward, a chef, had resigned his job in Ottawa and decided to relocate to the DR, to begin a new life with his Dominican girlfriend, Rita. From an early age, Edward had demonstrated non-conformist tendencies that had taken him into the realm of so-called “conspiracy theories”. Some of the subjects uncovered in his truth-seeking also resonated with Lisa, adding to her suspicion that she was living in a false  reality.

The trip provided a pleasant escape, but it didn’t erase Lisa’s problems. She returned home to find Marty was still Marty, a man with a wandering eye and a cover story for every deception. The tensions in Lisa’s life were building on multiple fronts and destined to converge.

The Great Deception and a personal crisis

The WHO announced a public health emergency of international concern on the 30th of January 2020 and declared it a pandemic on March 30. (Wikipedia). On February 4, 2020, the Diamond Princess cruise ship was quarantined at Yokohama, Japan. Media reports claimed that over 700 passengers and 150 crew members were infected with a novel SARS virus labelled Covid-19. There was something about this story that struck both Lisa and her son, Edward, as odd. She’s can’t put her finger on exactly what it was — the  quarantining of the entire ship, the claims regarding the threat posed by the so-called novel virus or the media spotlight given the story. Perhaps it was all three. Things were getting strange. 

That said, some thing appear to have remained constants in Lisa’s otherwise turbulent life. Her faith in “the most high God” endured throughout. She points out that it doesn’t hinge on an attachment to a any particular religious institution or denomination. She considers these to be avenues of deception and control. Against this backdrop, the year 2020 would be a pivotal year for Lisa in terms of her spiritual journey. Edward had become an adherent of the Gathering of Christ Church. At his urging, Lisa completed a series of bible study classes the church offered on-line. She’d also heard about the “Bikers’ Church” in Vanier, Ottawa. She was impressed by its commitment to serving those from all walks of life and, curious about its teaching. So, she occasionally watched its Sunday broadcasts. 

Looking back, it seems clear that something was stirring in Lisa’s spirit leading to a series of life-changing decisions. At one point that year, she largely abandoned alcohol consumption. Upon learning that her MD was about to retire, Lisa secured his medical  support for an extension of her stress leave from her job at the care home. The same month, she dumped out all her medications. This included medications for depression, high blood pressure and cholesterol. Why? Her response is an emphatic, “Because it’s all fake.” In December of 2020, frustrated by her employer’s repeated calls to return to work, and knowing it would demand she get vaxxed, Lisa submitted her resignation. 

A wedding amid the madness 

In January (2021), Lisa returned to the Dominican Republic to attend her son, Edward’s wedding. It was apparent that Covid-19 paranoia prevailed both in Canada and abroad. She was required to wear a mask in order to fly Air Canada to her destination. The Dominican Republic, and seemingly the vast majority of its population, were dutifully compliant “covidians”. The Uber drivers wore masks. Her son’s in-laws in the wedding party, one of them a medical doctor, wore masks, even in Edward’s apartment. Their resort hotel required guests to use a disinfectant shoe bath before entering the premises. And the hotel restaurant had adopted the absurd “masks-when-not eating-or-drinking” policy. Masked servers stood soberly at the buffet to serve guests their portions.

Throughout her visit, Edward made a point of noting the many “stupid” health protocols they encountered. When it was time to leave the country, Lisa was obliged to provide a negative PCR test to the airline before boarding (the known inaccuracy of the PCR test notwithstanding). The covid clampdown didn’t end there. Lisa’s home and native land was firmly under the spell of its medical magicians and their authoritarian enforcers. Once home, Lisa would have to remain quarantined in her apartment for two weeks. 

Lisa soon discovered that the 24/7 covid-vaxx propaganda campaign had turned many Canadians, particularly those in the medical profession, into vigilant little “soldiers” for the cause. Lisa recalls she and Marty had guests while camping in their motor home near Cornwall that summer. They were Marty’s friend Gerry, his wife Maureen, a nurse, and their two children. At one point during their visit, Maureen asked if she might step inside to see the interior of the motor home. Lisa invited her inside for a quick tour. In the course of their conversation, Maureen asked Lisa if she had gotten vaxxed. Lisa replied “Absolutely not!” The response triggered a scornful, “People like you…..” retort from Maureen. Lisa is still taken aback by the self-righteous conduct of her guest. 

In September of 2021, Lisa returned to Boca Rica in the Dominican Republic at her son, Edward’s urging. This trip was different. Edward was convinced Canada was headed for economic collapse and suspected the government would enforce a vaccination requirement on its citizens. Lisa had stored her household belongings with her second son, Marcel, before her departure for the Dominican thinking she might decide to make it her permanent home. Marcel subsequently decided to join his mother and brother and sold her belongings before his departure.

The relocation plan was not to be. Lisa changed her mind about making Boca Rica her permanent home in the wake of a jarring family incident. She returned to life in Canada in December minus many of her household items, including a prized dinnerware collection that Marcel had sold before his departure for the DR. Covid restrictions were easing. At this point, the Canadian government’s two week quarantine requirement no longer applied. 

Note: In the spring of 2021, Both the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms and the Canadian Constitution Foundation launched legal challenges to the Quarantine Act requiring that international travellers were to be quarantined at government-designated hotels upon their return to Canada. 

Personal changes 

Back home, Lisa continued on her personal campaign to improve her health with dietary changes. An acquaintance from her travels had sparked an interest in the value of food supplements. In August of 2023, Lisa became a distributor for a manufacturer of food supplements. The business offered her the prospect of improving her diet and potentially making some money on the side. Lisa integrated several of the company’s products into her daily diet and took the additional step of deleting pork and “bottom feeders” from her diet. (She bases this on a prescription from the book of Leviticus in the bible). The changes appear to have paid dividends as Lisa reports losing 40 pounds, having more  energy level and becoming calmer.  

As a means of promoting food product sales, Lisa created a YouTube channel where she regularly posted uplifting motivational content. She hasn’t gotten rich from product sales, but she has enriched the lives of hundreds of her followers with her posts and inspirational videos segments featuring daily walks with her dog, “Bear”. One of her posts generated close to 9,000 views. 

The battle for hearts and minds

I wondered what information and news sources sustained Lisa throughout the brutal war waged on the hearts and minds of Canadians. She says that she largely abandoned mainstream media at the outset, shifting to a variety of alternative sources of news and spiritual nourishment. Lisa followed the journey and briefings of several resister-truthers appearing on French Facebook. One of her regulars was Daniel Pilon, a man who billed himself as “Chroniqueur Libre-Penseur”. Daniel, a member of the Truckers’ Freedom Convoy protest, started an on-line radio station called Radio-Réveil, offering insights into what was actually transpiring. 

She also followed many other “truthers” posting content on Youtube. One of particular interest was lawyer Andre Lafrance, who travelled throughout the US in his RV, stopping at towns and cities along his route. His updates were revealing. In a capsule,  he found nothing of public health significance occurring at ground level in his travels. Lisa also found the story of police officer, Max Ouillet of Laval, Quebec, intriguing. Max quit the police force after investigating and discovering the hospitals were empty. Thus Max, among others, played a role in refuting the ever-popular “overwhelmed hospitals” lie. 

Lisa also recalled the revelations of honest, independent medical doctors, researchers and other professionals unbeholden to the Establishment. One was Dr. Lucie Mandeville who took her investigation of the Covid-19 Plandemic to Sweden, Mandeville reported to her Canadian audience that calm prevailed in that country in striking contrast to the medical theatre being staged in Canada. Lisa had also followed the alternative media news reports regarding the Trucker Convoy following its arrival in Ottawa in January of 2022. One source referenced earlier was Daniel’s reports on Radio-Réveil. While she was unable to visit the convoy downtown, independent journalists like him confirmed her conclusion that the government narrative was “fake”. Lisa laughs upon recalling the array of her alternative news sources she tapped, “I guess I was a conspiracy theorist”.  

Sickening side effects 

At home in Ottawa in retirement mode, Lisa encountered some sobering signs that her retirement from her job at the care home had been timely. In early 2022, she bumped into Frank, a former colleague who held a second job at a local Superstore. Frank had gotten vaxxed in order to retain his job at the care home and told her about his misfortunes. One of his thighs was racked with pain. Despite this, he’d gotten a second vaxx, something that seemingly added to his pain. The reactions were severe enough to send him home briefly to recover, and in both cases his employer had been unsympathetic. It seemed as if its only concern was how quickly Frank could get back to work. To make matters worse, Frank’s 20 year old son, also vaxxed, was also plagued with serious health problems.

In the Spring of 2024, Lisa bumped into Frank, accompanied by his wife, at a local Walmart. It was obvious that he’d lost weight. Frank confirmed that there had been no improvement in his condition. And his son had had to get a colostomy and now wore a collection bag. Frank’s misfortune didn’t end there. His wife, Maria, also vaxxed, was now undergoing treatment for brain cancer with the attendant risk of metastasis. 

Given the family’s serious health situation, Frank had quit his job at the store as holding two jobs had become too much. He informed Lisa that a significant number of colleagues at the care home had resigned their jobs and in several instances were suffering from serious health conditions. Lisa, touched by his devastating situation, offered her prayers and encouraged Frank to get in touch if there was something she might do to help.

Endings and goodbyes 

By the fall of 2023, endings of one kind or another had become thematic in Lisa’s life. It wasn’t just her trust in government, the media and the medical professions that had ended. Her relationships with now former friends and vaxx-indoctrinated colleagues and family members had also ended. In retrospect, she believes it was the hand of Providence that brought her back home from the DR in December of 2022 for another ending. Marty was sick and losing weight as throat cancer and other undiagnosed maladies gnawed at his body.

Despite his controlling behaviour and long-running unfaithfulness, Lisa decided she no longer wished to engage when he became combative. Instead, she would “kill him with kindness”. The effect must have been disarming in that at one point, Marty confessed, “I don’t know you any more.” On November 9, Marty exited this life via the federal government’s MAID program. Lisa reflected on what had, at times, been a psychologically and emotionally-abusive relationship. She put Marty’s departure in Providential terms: “God took him out of my life.” Looking back, she blames herself for not leaving him. 

The goodbyes continued. On May 23 of 2024, Lisa’s dad, Jean-Philippe, aged 86 years, also departed via MAID. Lisa was uncomfortable with his decision as he wasn’t in pain and it seemed inconsistent with his now Christian faith. That said, it was his choice. The next goodbye came in the Spring of 2025. Lisa’s beloved Shih Tzu, her companion for more than seven years” had been having seizures since January. On April 2025, she bid “Bear” adieu. 

Casualties of war, rebuilding

Lisa’s world has changed dramatically. During our first informal chat at the shopping mall in Orleans, I sensed a note of loneliness mixed with melancholy in her tone. She lamented that in the wake of the Covid-vaxx war, “… nobody talks to you.” As a compatriot, I could relate. It’s a lingering effect of an unconventional war that’s left many reeling in the wake of two kinds of casualties. One is that of vaxx-related injuries and deaths. A second is that of damaged and lost relationships. In Lisa’s case, the camaraderie and interactions she once enjoyed with co-workers and friends are gone. The same can be said of her former relationship with family members and relatives. Suffice to say, the cumulative effect has left her feeling excluded and alone.

There’s also some disillusionment in Lisa’s tone regarding the distancing that occurred when she made her position known to others — in person or via social media. It can be as blatant as the reaction of Maureen, the nurse in Lisa’s motor home that day or more subtle. Friends and family members she once thought “had her back” suddenly didn’t. As hard as it is to imagine this many years later, most of Lisa’s family members were pro-vaxx and remain so. She says the same of her son Edward’s in-laws, all devout trust-the-government vaxx believers. Lisa’s disillusionment concerning their appetites for propaganda is obvious: “I can’t believe how much people believe without questioning”. 

My experience tells me that the differences aren’t simply a matter of individuals’ stances regarding the Plandemic and the Covid vaxx. The divide is much bigger than that. It concerns one’s faith in, or conversely non-confidence in governments, the public health system, medical doctors, the pharma industrial complex, corporate media and so on. In reality, resisters like Lisa and the as yet unawakened inhabit significantly different realities and hold very different worldviews. 

Lisa faces the challenge of reconfiguring her life on a new, different plane. She admits that the process hasn’t been easy. She can’t simply go out and recruit new friends of course. “It’s lonely out there. There are too many fake people”, she says. Nonetheless, she prays that God puts “good people” in her path each day. It’s a process of patient venturing into new unknowns, something she feels she needs to become more comfortable with.  

Having hobbies can be therapeutic in times like this. Lisa learned how to crochet in her teens. Decades later, she puts her crocheting skills to work on a near-daily basis. When we first met, she gave me a crocheted heart, and on our second visit, a clover leaf. At the end of one of our library interviews, she led me to the parking lot and proudly showed me the multi-coloured cover that she had crocheted for the rear-mounted spare tire on her Jeep. I had to admit it was a first for me. 

Further Reflections

Lisa has no regrets about her vaxx-related decision and her stand. This is a woman who told me the day we met that she would rather die alone and unvaxxed than, in effect, be a guinea pig in someone’s medical experiment. As we wound down the interview, I asked if she had any advice for others based on her experience. “Don’t trust your government…they don’t care about you. You have to think for yourself … Question, question…”

She’s grateful for the divine and earthly help she has received throughout the war years. “God most high” is at the top of her list. She also values the role her questioning son, Edward has played in her political and spiritual awakening. It was Edward who often brought the anomalies in the official “Plandemic” narrative to her attention. Edward and Rita have given Lisa a grand daughter. Lisa brightens when the subject of her granddaughter arises. She proudly tells me that little Sofia is home-schooled by her parents and vaxx-free.

Lisa is seeking some sense of that larger purpose God has in mind for her life. I gently suggested that she’s been quietly growing into it. Her habit of spontaneously gifting acquaintances with her crocheted calling cards is an example of its expression. Lisa is instinctively uplifting others. One of the recipients of one of her crocheted hearts told me that the simple gesture had “made my day”. 

Lisa habitually collects bits of wisdom she can share with followers on her YouTube channel. Paradoxically, it’s when she herself needs a “pick me up” that she’s prompted to post something inspirational for her audience. Life’s little synchronies can provide such timely spiritual boosts. Lisa recalls setting aside a scriptural excerpt on the subject of trust for posting in some form at at latter date. A few weeks later, the perfect encapsulation of the message, a quote from Shakespeare, appeared in her daily calendar. She promptly found some artwork to serve as a backdrop for the text and posted the piece. The text  reads:

Even the people who betray you are part of the plan. Love all, trust few. Do wrong to none.    

The statement appears to speak to many aspects of Lisa’s Plandemic experience. It’s an encouragement to rise above the assaults and injuries and continue on her upward spiritual path. They are parts of a larger and more glorious plan. In fact, it seems to me that the quote speaks to Lisa’s entire life. 

Author’s note: One evening after my interview with Lisa, I returned to the core question of what it was that had enabled her to stand firm amid a full-strength propaganda hurricane and its aftermath. I stared at a chronology that I’d made of the major events in her life, and then it hit me like the proverbial brick on the side of the head.

Lisa had been an outsider …. someone who had stood apart from the crowd from birth. The group, or the “herd” as it’s termed in less kindly terms, had never been her reference point when it came to making decisions or choosing her path. The gaslighting, bullying, and intimidation that resisters were subjected weren’t new to Lisa. She’d experienced it throughout much of her life. 

In light of the above, the answer to my question was clear. Lisa has been unconsciously developing the psychological, emotional and spiritual muscles and the endurance to withstand the Propagandemic test over the course of a lifetime.  

2026 — Welcome to the Great Awakening (draft)

Babes, Bots and the Demons in the Machine 

Calvin Mulligan, January 28, 2026 rev Feb 8, 2026 (c) All rights reserved

Artificial intelligence and its applications are now ubiquitous to the point where most of us are no longer conscious of the extent of the integration of AI with human reality in our personal and business lives. I’m listening to AI generated music as I write. Last evening, I listened to an analysis of the bullion market offered by an AI construct referred to as “Asian Guy”. And most of us fight weekly to make ourselves understood to AI bots serving (or trying to serve) as customer service reps and intermediaries for public services providers and on-line retailers. (I still object with “I want a human, please”.)

It appears that an AI-managed future offers both alluring benefits and less discussed risks. Now we unconsciously embrace its efficiency, illusory omniscience and willingness to do the hard, complex and tedious work. But on some occasions, we will also find ourselves cursing its intrusiveness and complicity in mischief and in serious criminal activity. This is also the Age of Deception.

Living in a sea of deception

We have no choice. We’re forced to live our lives in a world of ubiquitous deception. We’re told those mainstream media headlines are fake, the events behind them are staged, those juicy commercial offers are fake, and those phone calls from Indian, South African and other call centres are fake. We’re learning our history is fake and many of the events appearing on our screens in the wider geopolitical realm are staged “false flags” —  specialities of the CIA, MI6 and Mossad. We have learned that many of the so called protests we’ve watched on our screen are also fake — courtesy of rent-a-mob services and professional protestors. (One investigative reporter reported he had found a particular woman appearing in 100 different protests.)

And if all that’s not enough to get one’s head spinning, the general public is awakening to the fact that many of those portrayed as kings, queens, popes, presidents and Prime Ministers are not the real thing. Rather they are CGI fabrications, mask-wearing actors, doppelgängers and cloned stand-ins. There are reportedly two or three Donald Trumps and at least one of them has referred to various individuals in his administration as being from “Central Casting” perhaps as much as 15 times. Fakery is big business.

This is the era of deep fakes — ever more convincing “digital forgeries” of humans capable of deceiving even the most aware including family members. The fake personas are manufactured by using face-swapping, voice-cloning and lip-synching technologies. I read that voice modulators enable impersonators to sound remarkably like the originals they imitate. Thus, the personas of public figures like Kevin O’Leary and Donald Trump are “borrowed or stolen to hawk financial schemes to us on social media.

The personal experiences I am about to describe are a microcosm of what’s occurring at the intersection of ubiquitous AI and what feels like peak deception. It illustrates the predatory nature of the dating site catfishing AI bot. And it also illustrates the danger of ever letting down our guard and suspending our disbelief. Is this why someone declared cynically: “Only the paranoid survive”?

The on-going systematic infusion of artificial intelligence into the human realm will bring ever greater risks. And while some will welcome immersion in an illusory world of AI, many of us, for a variety of reasons will remain steadfastly committed to tangible reality. We want  the real thing — real human to human connection and real human to real world connection. But it will be a struggle as our sense of what is real becomes hazier.

Those of us seek authentic connection, must continuous sharpen our skills in terms of our ability to discern between AI fabrications and their ploys on the one hand and real life and real humans on the other. The disclaimer here is that I am far from knowledgeable regarding IT, AI and their vulnerability to hacking and abuse. Rather, I tend to acquire sufficient understanding to become operational with a particular technology. I am confident, however, that I’m not alone in this regard.

Judy and me

About four years ago, a young female Asian student, supposedly enrolled at Rutgers University, connected with me on Linked-in. This female, I’ll call her Judy, commented respectfully on the depth of my career experience. She wondered if I would consider mentoring her. I thought it a bit odd that Judy want so far afield for mentoring and shared a personal photo with her request. I engaged nonetheless in order to find out who this person was and exactly what kind of help she was seeking. I searched her name in the meantime and found a partially completed LinkedIn profile in her name, referencing Rutgers University. I began by asking Judy about her program of study.

In the course of the conversation, Judy indicated she wasn’t physically on the campus at Rutgers, but had transferred her studies to a University in Australia as I recall. I probed further and was told that this wasn’t entirely a matter of locating a better program in her field of study. Rather it was because she had encountered sexual harassment in the US. My BS radar began to ping. But I continued the conversation hoping to discover the sure signs of a bot. I decided the best route was to focus the conversation on the human aspects of our being as AI may have difficulty comprehending emotional nuance.

I led the conversation into the realm of our respective upbringings. I asked her about the biggest influences in her life as a youth growing up in China. She told me that she’d had a very industrious mother whose example inspired her. I had provided career coaching to Chinese students in Canada in the past, so this wasn’t unusual to hear. Besides, I could relate as I also had been blessed with an industrious and self-sacrificing mother.

In recent years, I had become intrigued by the field of  forensic linguistics. (As you may recall, forensic linguistics played a pivotal role in the capture of Unibomber, Ted Kaczynski in April of 1996). I wondered if Judy’s use of language might provide definitive signs of her true nature.  My earlier experience on dating sites told me that those engaged in “catfishing”, given their lack of mastery of the English language, often misuse English prepositions like “of” and “to.” And many of those errors seemed to be attributable to English-as-second-language Asians. Yes, Judy’s use of English terms was rather mechanical in places, but overall it was high quality English. Besides, she had presented herself as Chinese, so some errors were perfectly understandable.

But some of Judy’s replies to my questions didn’t compute. They were non sequiturs. As an example of a non-sequitur, you might ask someone: “So, how did your family earn a living?” “The weather was very warm where we lived”, would be a non-sequitur. Judy’s dialogue contained a few of them. What was surprising and mildly annoying was her persistence with her claims to personhood. She always had a comeback or rationale to cover the previous anomaly when I brought it to her attention. When I asked why was she sharing a whimsical, full body photo with her profile given her concerns about sexual harassment, for example, she blew it. She claimed such openness was a feature of her culture. That got my BS metre flashing red. Meet Judy, “the AI Bot”.

The dreary fakery of dating sites

Flash forward to the present. Despite a rather dismal previous experience with on-line dating sites, I found myself giving them another go in 2025. My old grievances quickly resurfaced.  Their confusing multi-platform, integrated marketing model is one of them. Ultimately, my biggest complaint is the prevalent fakery.

It seems like the catfishing is constant and pervasive. Then there’s the matter of the profusion of questionable “likes” by subscribers opposite. It was almost as if it was a default feature of the program, rather than an express indication of a female subscriber’s leaning. The  preponderance of what I call “empties” or “ghosts” is equally annoying. These are dozens of profiles consisting merely of a photo, a name, a province or state, location and age with absolutely no supporting details about the individual.

There are the usual age-old games of course — photos of twenty or thirty somethings seemingly posted by 55 and 65 year olds. When it comes to dating sites in general, the photos range from studio quality to shadowy and grainy images shot up to distances of fifty feet. A subscriber must also see beyond the various forms of image “enhancement” such as use of photo filters or other forms of female subterfuge. And there are obvious fakes. Sarah Jones is listed as 45 years of age and from London, Ontario. And somehow in the mix there’s another Sarah Jones 45 from Winnipeg, Manitoba using similar descriptive phrases in her profile. Both it seems like to laugh “until their cheeks hurt”.

Olivia — real or fabricated?

It’s fair to say that by the time I encountered the profile of “Olivia Baker”, I had reached the point of dating site fatigue — cynicism actually. I casually clicked on her image and voiced my annoyance with all the fakery, thinking this individual had perhaps had a similar experience. Her profile indicated Baker was a woman who loved animals and lived in Tadoussac, Quebec. Olivia responded to my contact immediately and expressed an interest in our getting to know each other. “She” suggested we move to a more private social media platform. I hesitated, knowing this was contrary to one of the basic cautions. Olivia insisted it would be more private, however, and I went along at her urging.

We chatted freely — me in my usual open, and relatively unguarded fashion (not recommended). The back and forth conversation continued over the next three days before I concluded Olivia Baker was an electronic fabrication. The catfisher had employed a fake profile and photos stolen from somewhere in cyberspace. “Olivia” was a Judy Plus — more sophisticated but a mischievous bot nonetheless.

Olivia’s conversational connection was polite, grammatically sound, and largely coherent. I wished the chatty, smiling Olivia to be authentic and allowed the exchange to continue beyond early signs of fakery. In short, I gave “her” the benefit of the doubt. As my suspicions grew, I did a reverse image check on her photos on Google. It came up empty, but noted the photos could have come from private sources. Ultimately, however, there was no escaping the fact I was connecting with an AI bot based on a profile constructed from photos stolen from somewhere in cyberspace and a concocted profile.

Telling anomalies 

While the experience is personal, I believe the instructive value of my experiences with “Olivia”, “Judy” and other bots, are instructive. So here are the anomalies that may serve to help others discern between bonafide humans and AI bots in this or other kinds of settings.

• the responses to my questions weren’t always consistent. On the one hand, the “Olivia” persona appeared to have no time pressures, but on the other hand “she” was too busy to read the preface of my book at the Amazon.ca website using the “free sample” access. ( I concluded the bot couldn’t access the preface of my book and had to defer.)
• The replies, formulated in excellent English, came too quickly. Most humans think, articulate more slowly and in less precise terms. I could barely keep up.
• “Olivia” hurried the relationship moving to “we” or “us” language more quickly than one would in the normal process of getting acquainted.
• “Olivia” ignored certain questions. The woman in the photo had tanned skin. My questions about ethnic background and family history went unanswered.
• The persona was too nice — too solicitous, too complimentary too “welcoming”.
• “Olivia” crossed a line by being too forward, asking me how many women I was talking to (on-line) and insisted that we discuss the matter the following morning. (This was the self-sabotaging step.)
• “Olivia didn’t have good memory and was seemingly incapable of follow up. After insisting we discuss the topic (above), the following morning, Olivia “forgot” about it and didn’t connect for a day and a half.
• “Olivia’s” response to my challenge regarding her authenticity after the silence was  unconvincing (It was an out-of-season photo) and a story about being busy at work and “her” dad being hospitalized. (of course the explanation had to be something emotive like a sick parent)
• “Olivia” lost her composure when I pushed back regarding the out-of-season photo and lack of credibility. (I went into trolling mode.) The “whatchu mean by that” language of “her” response was inconsistent with the polite, well-spoken persona presented earlier in the conversation.
• “Olivia” stubbornly refused to acknowledge the fakery. In fact, days later, the construct  bounced back on line saying it appeared someone was trying to hack “her” account and we should move to another platform. This was after I had dismissed the fabrication as such.
• The Olivia bot wasn’t multilingual. In any case, it stopped engaging when I switched to French. It’s response was limited to, “I don’t understand what you’re saying”. (That’s funny given that an individual supposedly living in Quebec would have understood my basic French)
• The persona then resorted to out and out lying, claiming it has informed me earlier that it no longer lived in Quebec, but rather resided in the US. This wasn’t true.
• “The catfishing bot was devious in its apparent exploitation of information I provided earlier in the conversation. The information that I had provided  regarding my Christian background was integrated into the Olivia persona portrayed in the persuasive “money shot”. The photo showed a female relaxing on her sofa in the living room of her home  with an open bible next to her. (Perhaps a form of matching or “mirroring” of my interests).
• The persona lacked empathy proportionate to the situation. After a day and a half of silence, the explanation offered sounded too much like “the dog ate my homework” to be genuine. The text was a forty-nine word run-on sentence, again inconsistent with the good grammar used in earlier messages.
• Experience with other bots tells me they can’t always live up to their claims. For example, Samantha may claim to come from Smallville, yet oddly isn’t aware of a town 15 kilometres away.

Further thoughts

The trend line suggests our world will be bombarded with ever more sophisticated and deceptive human imposters. My experiences aside, the implications of AI’s penetration of almost every fact of our society and in some instances our very biology is unnerving. Yes, we’ve created an near infinite number of automated applications and amazing super soldiers, but I doubt the array of implications have been fully grasped. Subtle risks lurk beneath the surface of the humanity-AI relationship and hybrid creations.

One concern is whether our encounters with negative AI entities will cause a new kind of psychological and emotional trauma that prompts us to retreat and become excessively-guarded. In an AI-dominated world, it is possible to remain open, un-jaded and welcoming? Will we, of necessity, become less-trusting and less willing to engage with our fellow humans? Or, can we somehow learn the unmistakable earmarks of human authenticity, and thus equipped, effectively discern between AI entities and human beings?

My next door neighbour is an IT professional. Perhaps I should invite hime to serve as my chaperone if I ever venture back into the wild and untamed world of dating sites. In the meantime, it’s time for a change. I’m going back to face-to-face relationships.

Note 1: Clarity Check reports the following (February 21, 2026):

We analyzed over 1 million dating profiles. Here’s what we found:

• Over 50% were from people who weren’t actually single
• 30% listed their careers inaccurately
• 20% used stolen photos

Note 2. Clarity Check reports March 3, 2026:

• 26% of people have been approached by AI chatbots posing as real people on dating apps.
• Not catfishes using fake photos. Actual AI bots. Programmed to flirt, to build trust, and to ask for money.

They text like humans. They remember details about you.

Trump’s mysterious tease

How many remember this Trump moment from October 5, 2017?

“While taking photos alongside military leaders and their spouses before a Thursday night dinner at the White House, President Donald Trump cryptically stated reporters were seeing ‘the calm before the storm.’

‘You guys know what this represents? Maybe it’s the calm before the storm,’ Trump said, following a meeting with his top military commanders.” — CNN Politics, October 6, 2017

And when a reporter pressed, “What storm, Mr. President?’ Trump replied, “You’ll find out.”

The comment caught my attention; it was far too inviting for a futurist to ignore. Perhaps it’s because I don’t like nasty surprises. In any case, I asked myself what preparation for the Trump storm might be in order. The result was an essay entitled: Storm Preparation. Well, it’s almost eight years since the cryptic comment, and I’m going to suggest we’re about to find out exactly what Trump meant by the reference.

Parallel realities are about to intersect

One could argue that from the point of Trump’s election, America divided into two camps with the two populations experiencing two different perceptual realities. One group’s perception of their social and political reality was/is a distinct Democrat Blue. In this world, Trump is a tangerine-coloured Nazi-like dictator who, along with his rabid supporters is intent on destroying democracy and every right and freedom cherished by progressive believers.

Those in the Redish/conservative group believe that American and Americans had/have been captured by predatory foreign and domestic interests serving a global cabal intent on their destruction. Many in this group believe Trump is leading an historic struggle to defeat the deep state-allied Cabal and liberate America and its citizens. (Presumably, the October 5, 2017 White House photo op featured patriotic “White Hat” military officers supporting Trump)

It appears that the storm Trump referred to in 2017 is about to break publicly and the competing realities of these two groups are about to collide. One will prevail. The other largely fabricated world will collapse in the face of “hard” reality. The cognitive dissonance is likely to cause much wailing and gnashing of teeth as cherished illusions evaporate in the heat of the court testimonies, confessions, irrefutable documentation and public disclosure of long-hidden secrets.

The Trump team is doing what it can to provide for a soft collision. Close analysis suggests that it has been replacing beloved (albeit criminal, evil, compromised) icons serving the Dark side with actors wearing masks, CGI, doppelgängers (some surgically altered), clones and possibly even robots for several years.* Patriotic truthers are reporting that the war against the Cabal has largely been won. A house divided cannot stand — certainly not thrive. It’s time to fuse the two time lines/realities into one so America can heal and become whole again. It’s time to re-imagine and rebuild as the Great Awakening dawns.

Note*: According to geopolitical analyst, Benjamin Fulford, there is both a White Hat Trump (with multiple back ups) and a Black Hat Trump operated by the dark side. Fulford describes the first or the original as tall (6 foot 3″) and the dark hat version as “short and fat”.

Signals and signs of an impending storm

Several recent developments suggests the storm’s about to break. Here’s that caught my attention:

• Trump, Tulsi Gabbard and other officials in the Trump administration are naming names and calling for investigations into their links to an array of criminal and potentially treasonous activities. (examples: John Brennan, James Clapper, Hillary Clinton, Barrack Obama, Nancy Pelosi)
• Washington DC has been placed under federal control, presumably to clean up its crime problem. (truther analysts suspect that’s a positioning manoeuvre)
• National Guards are being dispatched to 19 states, presumably to back up local law enforcement officer dealing with crime and protect ICE agents deporting illegal migrants.
• Trump has suggested he will next be initiating National Guard clean up operations in Chicago, New York and other major American cities (Again, cleaning up crime is thought to be a cover for larger military operations in Blues cities to protect against Cabal resistance when their high profile players are arrested.) The recent raid on the home of John Bolton, former National Security Advisor, is likely a prelude)
• During Trump’s FIFA 2026 world cup announcement, a clear “comm” was sent. One Anon noted that none of the officials with and including the president were wearing ties. He interpreted this symbolism to read “no ties” i.e. “the US is untied”.
• A day after I selected this subject, @GenFlynn tweeted a synchronous meme: The headline text read (Washington) DC weather forecast today: cloudy with a chance of rain. The white clouds on a blue sky background formed a profile of Donald Trump. And the bottom line read; “A STORM is coming!”

Storm Preparation

Trump was in his first year in office when Storm Preparation was written, minus any insider information or contacts. The focus of the article was chiefly on the mental-emotional-spiritual preparation more than the physical. To borrow an expression from my Dad’s generation, a lot of “water has flowed under the bridge” in the nearly eight years since October of 2017. That said, upon re-reading the essay, there’s little I would change with the benefit of hindsight. It lacked the clarity of hindsight of course. Thus my appreciation of the nature of the storm, its scope and its potential for bringing widespread change was somewhat understated. And I certainly didn’t expect it would be eight years before it developed and broke into the public sphere. That said, I believe the advice I gave to myself at the time remains relevant.

There’s a lot of fog and disinfo out there, but my sense of what’s coming is a Category Five hurricane. The impact is likely to be profound and far-reaching. Figuratively speaking, hurricane force winds have been forecast for September through November. What’s one to do? I encountered some advice in 2017 that’s worth repeating: “Prepare, pray and get out of the way.”

Storm Preparation

November 14, 2017, rev. Nov. 20, 2017, Dec 6, 2017 © Futurescapes21C

You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. (Matthew 16:3)

Growing up on a farm, you learn to read the signs of coming storms. And when you have had a succession of hot dry July days and you see dark clouds building in the West, you hurry to prepare for the fury of wind and hail. You hustle from the field, park equipment inside sheds, ensure livestock have access to shelter and secure anything that could be blown away. Those who were good at reading the signs of what nature had in store and adapted accordingly were less likely to suffer potentially crippling losses. My guess is that the same could be said of those people capable of anticipating and adapting to social-political storms. Preparation and readiness count in farming, ranching and in life. Looking back, I wonder if it was those childhood lessons regarding the importance of readinessthat inspired my career in foresight.

US President, Donald Trump recently made a sly reference to “the calm before the storm” that’s has triggered a great deal of speculation.1No one is entirely certain what he was alluding to at this point. But it could be a hint that something big is coming and if so, some preparation may be in order.  Some suspect it points to war. But the meaning of the comment is opaque.  A disruptive event of some kind could well be coming.

The American Empire is in a dire state. Social and political divisions abound. America’s political leaders are corrupt, compromised and controlled by foreign and corporate interests. Big Brother is terrorizing citizens with false flags psy ops. And America’s foreign policy has made it the world’s foremost threat to peace. It all points to the need for a revolution. So the suggestion that a storm is on the horizon isn’t surprising. And it would be entirely consistent with my analysis that 2017 was to be a year of Deception and Disclosure.

This isn’t mainstream research or mainstream news. The controlled corporate media is, just that — controlled and indicative of the need for a revolution. It’s a bit different story in the independent alternative media. And while it has also been thoroughly corrupted and infiltrated, truth sometimes trickles through. Some sources in the alternative media and conspiracy research community have been describing a long-running covert struggle between forces loyal to the US Republic (“the Alliance”) and the ruling powers-that-be (Illuminati, Deep State, Cabal). They believe that the struggle is approaching a tipping point, and the Alliance now has the upper hand. Based in part upon anonymous insider leaks, these sources point to a recent series of events as indicators that the tide of the battle has turned.

They include:

• recent filings of an inordinate number of sealed indictments in US federal courts (said to be in the thousands as of Dec 10-17);
• the alleged criminality of the Podesta Brothers and announcement the PD lobby group was shutting down;

• Donna Brazilie’s book exposing Hillary’s dirty election campaign dealings;

• the resignations of three top leaders at the Federal Reserve;

• the arrests of dozens of princes, billionaires and officials and seizure of 100’s of bank accounts in Saudi Arabia;

• the call for an investigation of Hillary Clinton’s “Uranium One” deal;

• seizure and analysis of the contents of Anthony Weiner’s lap top;

• the exposure of Hollywood’s pedophilia problem; and

• the release of the JFK files.

Others give no credence to the notion of a corps of “White Hats and a benevolent global Alliance of patriotic forces. It’s hard to say what is real and what is disinformation regarding the so called “coup-counter-coup” narrative, but some kind of struggle seems to be playing out. In any case, there certainly is a sufficient real world bases for a storm of incriminating revelations and criminal charges. Whether this will follow isn’t clear. Sometimes in nature, the wind redirects the storm clouds and they blow over, leaving us unscathed. You can’t bank on that however. Preparation, even if it amounts to no more than practice, is a good thing. But what constitutes preparation?

One alternative media source suggests followers “prepare, pray and stay out of the way.” I’ve also encountered a couple of sources that recommend that folks stock up with some additional food and water and have some cash on hand in the event things get tense in the US.  It is difficult to predict how an already anxious and divided US citizenry might react to a series of arrests involving key public figures, for example. Would there be widespread civil unrest and riots in the US? It’s hard to say how harried US citizens would react to political disruptions of this nature. The fact that trust in politicians and the government is at a low ebb wouldn’t help. And the maladaptive responses of Hillary Clinton supporters to her election loss tells me that there are good reasons to be concerned.

In a way, her followers were set up. The corporate media conditioned Hillary supporters to expect a win. It was Hillary’s turn after all. By the time the final week of the campaign rolled around, it was time for Hillary to measure the drapes before her ascendency to the Oval office.2And then, suddenly, it wasn’t. She lost and the cognitive dissonance was acute and tangible. The weeping and wailing continued for days and weeks. In fact, one year after the event, I read that resisters were encouraged to meet outdoors on the anniversary of the election to howl their displeasure at the skies. So it’s clear that many partisans haven’t yet come to terms with their reality. It seems that the coping skills of these folks, some perhaps social justice warriors needing colouring books, puppies campus safe spaces, aren’t good. The shock and abrupt  change of “storm” proportions could be significantly greater. And once again the mainstream media (MSM) has set folks up for a shock.

This potential shock factor associated with a major unanticipated development of the kind discussed above could register a 6 or 7 on the figurative human Rector scale. If the speculations are correct and crimes such as treason, child trafficking and corruption were involved, a takedown of the criminals would infect a large swath of US members of Congress on both sides of the isle. Because such crimes are international in scope, the reverberations would be world-wide, (see Israel, Saudi Arabia and beyond). The aftershocks could continue for years. Beyond this, rogue elements of the FBI and CIA are likely implicated in such crimes. The controlled corporate media may have misdirected the citizenry again. Trump’s enemies allied with the Cabal expect that Mueller’s investigation will incriminate Trump and impeachment will follow. At this point, however, it isn’t clear that Mueller has Trump in his sights.

The geopolitical order has been shaken and likely will continue to be. My sense however is the public is ill-prepared for world-shaking political storms. One doesn’t sit down and reconstruct their worldview in a day, even when presented with new realities. Disruptions can unleash a powerful combination of emotions: anger, fear, disappointment, surprise, and embarrassment. It can be psychologically overwhelming. I recall that within days of Hillary’s defeat, an author who diagnosed himself as suffering from “Post Trump Stress Disorder,” died.3

I was fortunate. Growing up on a farm teaches you that disruptive, even catastrophic events, whether it’s weather-related like a hail storm or it’s a prairie fire, can destroy crops and possessions in minutes. In time, you either learn resilience or your are beaten into submission and defeat. And my Dad didn’t candy-coat his worldview either. He alerted me to the fact that the world wasn’t necessarily what it appeared to be. The powers-that-be running the Big Show didn’t have the best interests of humanity in mind. We talked at length about the Illuminati, the Rockefellers and Rothschilds, and the latter’s control over the world’s banking systems and thus entire nations. He alerted me to the fact that the Federal Reserve, unlike its name, was not a US government institution, but a private entity. I guess you could call it a different version of the facts of life.

I’ve explained in an earlier commentary how the observations of U.S. Colonel Andrew Bacevich opened my eyes to the hard truth regarding America’s tyrannical foreign policy.4 Once the surface of the popular perceived reality is scratched and you get past the initial shock, it gets easier. You can grab hold of its edges and pull it back as you would remove a layer of worn linoleum covering an oak floor. In the process, you discover that a faux reality sometimes hides a hard reality beneath it. At that point, one can engage in denial and replace the linoleum, but it won’t erase what has already been seen. So for those unprepared for disruptive storms, whatever their nature, here are a few protective measures I have adopted for my personal well-being in The Age of Deception (c). If it even one helps one person, this commentary will have served its purpose.

Put your faith in God, not people. Even if admired leaders are given god-like status in government, business, entertainment, religious institutions, or on the international stage, the simple truth is their feet are made of clay. Flaws are a given.

Place the highest value on the truth versus material things.Is there anything that matters more in life than The Truth?

Empower yourself with a mandate for bringing light to darkness and telling the truth “in love” in a way you never have before.

Grant trust carefully, exercising discernment. The con artists, imposters and fake messiahs abound and they specialize in telling people what they want to hear. It depends on what is at stake of course, but when it comes to granting trust to people, it’s a bit like that hand-written sign that was hung next the cash register in rural businesses. Anticipating customer requests for credit, it read: “In God we trust; everyone else pays cash.”

Remember that not everyone has conspired against the truth and well-being of humanity.There are millions of honest men and women working in compartmentalized roles for corrupt institutions for the leaders of the Cabal without any idea what goes on at the top. They only become complicit if they choose to ignore the evidence.

Accept the reality of Evil. There comes a point when the crimes occurring in the dark can only be explained by the fact that Evil is a part of our reality. Satan hasn’t retired. He and his devotees are very busy.

Ally yourself with other truth seekers and truth tellers.Seek out wise people who aren’t influenced by mainstream media narratives or flavour of the week distractions. These are wise people who have their priorities in order and feet firmly on the ground.

Guard your heart and mind. There’s an intense battle raging for hearts and minds. Guard yours keeping in mind that ultimately, as Dylan said, “you gotta serve somebody.” It’s a question of whom you wish to serve.

Resist the propagandizing and mass mind control. Some observers have compared our current political environment and the endless propagandizing to that portrayed in Orwell’s classic, 1984. You can resist the mind-warping effect of relentless propaganda and disinformation by hitting the “off” button and developing new information sources.

Educate yourself as to the ways of the shadow government and the deep state.This means learning the history of Gladio and how psy ops and false flag are used to instil fear and shape the will of the population.

Forgive yourself. Let’s face it; we have all been fooled. The powers that be are masters in the art and science of perception management,and they have a lot of tools in their tool kit. It’s the Illuminati that are the manipulative criminals.

Cultivate a healthy skepticism when leaders or the media imply we need to just trust them. Cultivate courage, critical thinking, intuition and discernment regarding the truth.

Reaffirm to yourself and your family what it is that really matters.It’s probably not the next episode of The View, the next football game or the irritating employee at work. You can become purposeful and powerful. It’s been said that the most powerful people in the world are those who want nothing.

Avoid the snakes. The Cabal’s servants are constantly seeking new recruits to join their ranks promising as “Hollowood” does, fame and fortune. No thanks.

Expect casualties. Sadly, some folks will be psychologically and spiritually overwhelmed by the tide of change and the inversion of a reality they became attached to.

Be patient in the sense-making process. In time, the truth will become known.

Transcend the false dichotomy of traditional, partisan left-right politics.

Spend time outdoors celebrating the endless beauty and wonder of creation. It can be powerful therapy.

Brace for cognitive dissonance. Coming to terms with the collision between two versions of reality, while knowing only one is authentic, can be painful. I recall the account of feminist author, Naomi Wolf, who told an audience about her shock at first learning that her own US government was staging (false flag) attacks and terrorizing US citizens with “theatre.” Wolf had to go for a walk and have a good cry. In effect she was grieving the passing of a cherished illusion – that of a benevolent government.

A social-political storm may be about to erupt. If it does, as many in the  conspiracy research or “truther” community expect, the reverberations will be far reaching. Among other things, it could demand a lot of rethinking of what we thought we knew. Some mental preparation (“stress testing”?) for the impact and aftershocks of such a storm could be worthwhile. Right now, the skies are overcast. But it’s likely to get darker. I wish you peace amid any coming storms, irrespective of their nature.

Traversing the Valley of Creative Destruction  

About 12 years ago, I integrated a particular image into my annual reports to my employer regarding the state of our world and future trends. I borrowed it from Kevin Kelly’s little 1998 book, “Ten Rules for the Network Economy”. I incorporated it because it graphically portrayed the challenge of massive discontinuity — the kind that could abruptly leave organizations and industries stranded.

It was a simple line drawing of two “mountain” slopes separated by a deep valley. It illustrated the challenge of a company facing the decline of their existing market, and need to abandon present success, invent and begin the ascent to a new summit. For the unprepared, I assume it was Death Valley. In Joseph Schumpeter’s terms, it was the Valley of Creative Destruction where organizations shed the past while creating their future. But success is addictive and organizations aren’t comfortable letting it go.

I’ve been visualizing the “Valley Challenge” for our nation and for the West and the world in similar terms. Most people have difficulty imagining that almost all they know and are attached to is being swept away. It’s an important exercise, because as they say, reality doesn’t care about our feelings. And the reality is the existing order is dying under the weight of its corruption, and internal contradictions. It does’t matter where one looks — medicine/health care, education, justice, politics, government, science, research, journalism, or organized religion. They are largely failing the most basic test: “Is our sector serving to uplift people and advance the future of humanity?”

The sick state of the so-called “health care”, industry is illustrative. Its latest achievement: Administering a toxic Covid-Vaxx campaign estimated to have killed from 17-20 million and sickened and injured billions globally. The satirical meme reads: “Ask your doctor if a drug treatment with 15 pages of adverse effects is right for you.”

The satanic parasite has been killing the host — literally — accelerating our plunge into Death Valley. And while the programmed cheer, others are awakening to the schemes of our tormentors. They’re fighting the good fight, calling out the demonic forces, and unearthing truth. For the past 5 years in particular, I’be been peering through the fog of the information war. I’ve told you a story about a long-planned military take-down of entrenched dark powers and the potential triumph of new regime dedicated to peace and prosperity.

Today, I’m again hearing that the nations of the world are being re-organized into Seven Kingdoms, each with a designated “Kingdom leader” as follows:

Russia + Eastern Europe (Russia)
Spain + Western Europe (Spain)
South America + Caribbean (Brazil)
Asia (China)
Bharat (India)
UCAP – USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand + Pacific (USA)
Middle East + Africa (Saudi Arabia)

The tectonic plates are shifting. It’s time to let go of old, self-defeating, soul-killing attachments, lies and conflicts and prepare for the ascent up a new slope.
