The Mark of the Beast

~ MKW Publishing ~ 9 Comments

This title really shouldn’t surprise anyone who has been paying attention. It’s coming, at first through what looked like benign offerings of technology to make life easier. Covered in Convenience, or dependence? But this is more than that, this is an intrusion into our bodies, to make us literally part of their system, no longer a consumer or mere bystander, but assimilated with it.

It seemed for the longest time, the barcode was the representation of the mark of the beast, as told in the bible, that no man shall buy or sell, lest he have this mark. Each product mostly has to have a barcode these days, but you can still trade without it. So, maybe money was the mark then, without that you cannot buy or sell? But you can, because you can still barter and trade with goods, eliminating the money in the transactions altogether, just like the good old days.

What they really seem intent on though, is eliminating people being part of a normal daily transactions, apart from the buying and consuming bit. A conveyor of customers that you can just scan – do you not see the correlation? They scan barcodes of products to keep track of them, and process them through a database of transactions for the purpose of analysis. Usually for the purpose of continued marketing, i.e., are people buying that product, how much do we need, re-ordering etc. So put yourself now as that product, with your inserted chip and barcode tag, slight upgrade from your national security number, although it will be tied to it, integrated with your digital ID. Once you start on that conveyor belt, you don’t actually know where it goes do you? And as they scan more people and analyse the data, they will adapt those systems for said requirement, but as the algorithm interprets them, from a robotic and sterile viewpoint. There will be minimal interaction with other people, unless they too are part of the conveyor. I know a little we’ve all secretly dreamed of having a shop to ourselves, or wishing that the people would be replaced by machines so we didn’t have to talk to anyone, or smile, or be polite, because sometimes we just aren’t feeling it. But on the flipside, how many have just popped to a shop to be able to see and be around people, when maybe you aren’t in the best place in your life. We used to joke about GP surgeries being full all the time because old people needed someone to talk to, so they would be there. Not anymore obviously, but the point being, that people need other people for the most part.

Once you are in the system though, by way of boimetrics, facial recognition and digital I.D, it will be very hard for you to be in control of your own life and make your own decisions. And maybe you struggled with those things anyway and welcome the new way that is coming, but the majority do not seem to be on board, not voluntarily anyway. So, they are trying very hard to coerce, blackmail and manipulate people into accepting their ‘access systems’, where they get to decide what, where, who and when. It can seem scary I know to be responsible for yourself, your whole life and decisions, but what is even scarier, is the thought of some else doing it all for you, throughout your entire life. The parent that just won’t let go, or ever let you leave home, and needs to know what you are doing all the time, and decides when you can and can’t do things, decides what you eat, if you can work etc. We used to call that controlling and abusive, but for some reason because it is the face of a corporation doing it, people seem fine with it. And because they want to do it to everyone, that seems ok to for many, just shocking. Behind these corporations are people, greedy manipulative people who are used to getting their own way and when they jump, they pay people to say how high. That’s who wants to be in charge of your life, and little by little they are being let in through the front door, being invited, just as a victim needs to invite a vampire into their home to give them extra powers, it seems to be the case here. So, all I can advise, is that people don’t be so willing to be a product on the conveyor of consumerism, because just as those things you used to scan were useful to you, you become useful to someone else, you just won’t know why yet…

They’re looking to squeeze …(poetry)

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

They’re looking to squeeze

Every last drop

Of your living soul

And they just won’t stop

It seems our lives

Have been forsaken

They will not give it

Power is taken

So before you give in

And may want to relent

It’s not run its course

And nowhere near spent

So gather your strength

For what is now right

When cometh the time

For freedom you fight

For that which you love

And do hold most dear

You’ll need a sharp focus

To look through all the fear

And see what it is

That they’re trying to hide

Work out where this goes

And then to decide

~

Which side you are really on

Flat or Round?

~ MKW Publishing ~ 8 Comments

As we know, there is much debate around this subject, and some seem to find even the idea of questioning it to be a disgrace. As if you have suddenly become Rumpelstiltksin and asked them to hand over their first-born child. I don’t think there should be a problem around having the conversation, and if someone ends up thinking I am stupid because of it, then so be it. But as we have seen of late, the establishment seem rather keen on having a certain narrative in place, and the advantages it holds. So, I will examine the flat earth or globe earth question from my point of view and what advantage it may pose to have one being believed over the other. It has been part of the historical narrative for a while now that people ‘stupidly’ believed the earth to be flat, they drew it, talked about it being so, put it in stories and it was so. But then something changed, they ‘discovered’ it wasn’t apparently around 500 BC.

So, we have a round earth now, with all the maths and maps making it all nice and neat. I wonder if they had a system of vilifying people back then if they didn’t believe it, like they did with other things they insisted people ‘believe’, with very severe punishments if you didn’t. But I figured if you decide on the answers and make sure you only teach that method and reasoning, you can easily move that thought through an academic community. I used to be amused by people getting irate about people believing one or the other, my response was always that I don’t actually mind which one it is, because I’m never going to know and it doesn’t not change what my feet are stood upon.

But I have changed that viewpoint slightly, because it may well be that I don’t mind, but it’s the why that niggles at me. Why would they want us thinking it’s round? And the opposite thought too, why would they want us to think it’s flat? Both given equal time and energy with no bias. And I have come across some very interesting theories along the way, some I think are fascinating and to me hold merit and are worthy of attention. And even though I may not agree with their entire theory, it gives me ideas about how it may have been manipulated to how we know it today. One in particular I am intrigued by is the crater earth theory / bigger earth theory.

Which theorises that we are on both a flat surface area in a crater, on a much, much bigger earth. And the other ‘craters’ are the other ‘planets’ we see and are told of being reflected onto the dome of the firmament. So, when they say they go to Mars, maybe they do, because it’s over there, not up there. Once you fall into the crater theory, there are many ideas that come from it. None provable of course, but they make sense. So, I tend to then go to the why again. Why would they want to lie?

If you knew your world was suddenly much bigger, much more amazing and far reaching, would it change how you see it? What you would do in it? Where you might like to go, if you knew it just went on and on. Still vast distances, but exploring to the ends of the realm. It would be harder to contain people if they knew and were working together to discover that. But as with much in this world, there are gatekeepers to this information and opportunity. Like if you found the fountain the youth, would you run and tell everyone about it? Or an endless bucket of money, would you share it all out continuously so everyone had enough and it’s worth appeared diminished? Or would you keep it, hold it, save it, for yourself? And this is where people and greed go hand in hand, whether it is through selfishness, or the illusion of value, I’m not sure, probably a combination though with some meanness thrown in.

So, although the world may be one or the other, I treat it as a Schrödinger problem until I have solid information I can verify – it is both round and flat. But what I am most interested in and can unpick, is why they would want you to think something, the advantage it holds to them for us to believe we are on a precarious spinning ball, flying through space. That we should ignore the parts of physics that would dispel that, and focus on the parts that apparently neatly tie everything up, although they are subject to change or can be updated at any moment if they decide. And I am all for new information, but not just for the sake of it. It has been shown that there is much you can convince people of, and through the use of technology it is not hard to create what you want people to see, literally, so we are left to work through what is available. The things that don’t quite add up or make sense, shouldn’t be overlooked just because someone told you to, give them a bit of time and thought and come to your own conclusion, whatever that may be…

Convenience or Dependence?

~ MKW Publishing ~ 6 Comments

In the midst of this ‘energy crisis’, they feel it necessary to tell you every day you won’t be able to afford things, this and that will be cancelled, what is the most expensive appliance to run and so on.

So, I will take a look at that idea and break it down. Again, I have spent years giving thought to and researching social history and how things came to be the way they are, and indeed, how were they before. I’ll talk about obvious ones so you know what I mean.

Washing Machines and Microwaves. Both became mainstream before I was born, but were still rather pricey as I was growing up. We didn’t have a washing machine for years (or indeed a microwave), instead had to go for trips to the laundrette with my mum, getting to sit and watch all sorts of people doing their domestic chore in public. Then we had a twin-tub machine, where after it was washing, you had to hoist over the heavy wet washing into the spinner section. Then being able to rent one became a thing, and my mum rushed to get her first proper washing machine, and every week we went to the shop with the rental card to pay our instalment, sometimes just me going. Seeing how, for what looks like a little amount consistently, you can have something big. Although once I learnt of the interest charges and length of time on these things, I realised where the money was in it as a business, and it was for the people renting these appliances out.

Both washing machines and microwaves entering the household on a normal basis meant a big change to the dynamic of said household. And one I didn’t really appreciate at first, and probably not really for a long time even after I was aware. It changed time. Suddenly women, and any domestic men at the time, had more time on their hands and I didn’t realise why I hadn’t thought of it. The amount of time it used to take to complete certain manual chores was much more than today, so if you are spending all day cooking, cleaning, washing, shopping etc, that’s a whole day. But no more. You can have all that done within a couple of hours now, just by filling up a few machines and pressing a button or two. And maybe some loading/unloading. Minimal interaction and movement seem to be the point of these things. Which is great, if as a person, you have limited mobility or dexterity, but for the average person, why would you want something or someone doing everything for you if you are perfectly capable? Unless you have something else you need or want to be doing, and that is where it got interesting to me. Because it seems that people need tasks and something to do, without anything but boredom we usually find ourselves out of sorts and naturally gravitate towards self-destruction in some cases. Some are content perhaps to just sit with their thoughts on an ongoing basis, which may possibly be as inactive as they are. The majority however, would rather be doing something, with their time, energy and resources. But those three things have been commandeered and are not entirely within our control anymore.

They helped to make certain things affordable as it was cost effective to them, cut down time on the need to be in the home, more workers to join the workforce. It’s a win win for them. More industry, more taxes, more consumerism. But what of the lose lose for us? Less time with friends and family, less money because they increased the cost of things, so two incomes in a household didn’t make it any better for many. And more consumerism had led to a greedy throwaway attitude, which has unfortunately extended from the inanimate objects to people. They are now often viewed as expendable and replaceable, while constantly mentioning we will be obsolete. We were useful to build things for them that would be useful to replace us, and build better things for them.

Weirdly though, it seems we have allowed ourselves to become obsolete in this, by becoming so dependent on all the gadgets and devices they have installed into our lives, and finances. People start to forget how to do the manual things, things by hand, using your own initiative and strength.

And each of those devices have a cost, both to our sense of purpose as noted above and as purported by a certain henchman of the overlord, and there is also a cost in monetary terms. And we are seeing the finances laid bare of how much it really costs to live in their world of ‘convenience’, where that word is now being redefined too, because they are the ones who decide how much these cost, and they make vast amounts of money through it. They tied you in with meters for the electricity, hive systems now which require more batteries each year to maintain than I have ever known in my life, just to be able to adjust something from an app, which I don’t have or use. I can use my hands to turn a dial just as much as i can use them push a button, but turning the dial didn’t used to cost anything. The phones which require power and cost to run, the internet which require power and a contract, TV licenses, taxes, fees, bank charges, service subscriptions, etc.

Strip that all back, quite recently as well, and there was none of that, ‘convenience’ or cost – covered in my article There was a time before, people didn’t have each area of their daily life intruded upon in the grotesque fashion it is today, but the small implementations towards it were. And so has the social engineering to make it so. They made it so that they were your parent, caregiver and warden throughout your whole life, from ‘Cradle to Grave’ as the idea went in The Beveridge Report, as they say, all things start with good intentions. And whether it was with good intention or has been made to look that way is past the point, because this is where we are now, with the results in full swing. The idea was planted in people’s minds that they would be looked after from birth to death. It seems that post war posed a unique opportunity for a new social order, having brought everyone together under the banner of a ‘shared event’ (I will go into that further in another post).

So, I ask you, do all these devices and systems really seem that convenient after all? And what they propose for the future – further systems, log-ins, implants, chips, targets, restrictions and procedures, all dependant on electricity and you being part of the consumer conveyor belt that feeds their lives. And there is where we find we actually have a co-dependency happening, a symbiotic relationship we don’t really want, but they require. Almost like those parasitic insects that need to keep their host alive to be able to live and survive themselves. Which is why they maybe want us to think that we are so disposable, and expendable, constantly hearing news that we are ‘no longer required’ for the future, it can be done without us. Almost sounds like when someone is afraid you will leave, and they say you will never be happy without then, you’ll never cope without them, but inevitably, we always do. That does not mean we always will, but it should be noted and recognised when appropriate.

People are stronger than they know, and are more important than they realise. To minimise that existence is a cruelty in itself added to all the others heaped unnecesarily upon us. We create our own reality they say and currently are allowing that to be highjacked by the darkest type of vision. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, if we don’t want their cold, sterile, monitored digital prison that appears to be coming, then we better get on it and start constructing our own future reality, right now.

The Face Of A Clown – A Masked Reality

~ MKW Publishing ~ 4 Comments

This is a follow up piece to The face of a clown, in story town. Within an hour of posting it I was recommended to checkout a YouTube channel with a series of vids on clowns being of the Nephilim origin. Even more interesting as I was working on a piece called Myths, monsters and legends where I mention the Nephilim, no coincidences go unnoticed. It’s a rather intriguing subject it seems and is heavily tied in with masonic symbolism. Clowns, jesters and tricksters. Lots of things are relevant and without knowing it I have been piecing this together too over time.

The Nephilim were apparently Giants, with very pale skin and red hair. It seems lots of ancient cultures have a depiction of sorts to giants, and modern culture has scaled them down, but kept the red hair and pale face. I mention a number of them in my previous article, but hadn’t really considered their extra purpose and imagery. Even making more sense maybe why the panto dames are exaggerated versions of women, because they are ‘tricking’ the viewer. It’s not meant to be a passable version, its purposely overdone. They say nature warns you of danger with bright colours, maybe we do the same through the medium of warning with costumes and a certain look and reading the body language like we used to. Who can say for sure. A theme of black and white stripes appears to follow it too, and zig zag patterns, noted for being a theme in David Lynch productions. But they are also the lines in hypnotising imagery, so there may be something to it, I need to give that a bit more investigation.

But trying to entice children with bright colours, buffoonery and magic isn’t a new thing. We have funfairs, carnivals, theme parks and pantomimes, all with a frontage of fun, smile and excitement, but with an undertone of sinister, mystery and macabre. Or maybe that’s just me. Maybe other people just see the fun smiley bit. But throughout childhood we are given clues, and hints at what we should really be afraid of or looking out for.

Scooby Doo – it might seem a silly one to include, because I, like many others thoroughly enjoyed watching it for its inanity and fun element. But we all knew what was going on, usually something very nefarious with the appearance of it being something supernatural. Taught some of us to always look further than what is being shown. Other detective shows along the way after that probably helped, if you were inclined to watch them as I was.

Fairy Tales and stories – these are obvious and hopefully everyone who grew up reading them understood the undertone or message being given. And although in them something dastardly was always happening to the children and it focused on them, I couldn’t help but wonder of the adults in those tales. How it was that they came to be so weak, manipulated or corrupted to be so evil or ambivalent to those children. Usually, the heroic efforts of the children gave me hope at the end, that there could be some good and justice, even when surrounded by evil.

Just because it is bright and shiny and children appear to be playing along, they are sometimes sharper than we give them credit for. How did we all spot the weird stuff as kids? Many didn’t, but an awful lot did. And still do, when something isn’t quite right, there is a spidey sense that goes off and means you have to pay attention, and ask questions and find out why an internal sensor went off. And seeing people’s faces is very important usually to gauge someone’s intent or general mood, which you cannot do when they are performing. Putting on an act is called so for a reason, because it is acting to a point, but at what point does it stop being an act and the persona or alter ego crosses over, and becomes the dominant force or personality? Expression of self is important, but there should be a self-governing line, because while you should be allowed to express yourself, others should definitely be allowed to either not approve, or not pay any attention. Because I ask myself, how much of the recent weird crazes and societal issues or abnormal ideas we have, would have been minimised if they didn’t have a constant audience for it? The internet is the new mask of reality, we can hide behind it, reach out with it, get feedback, advice, distractions, and much more, in seconds, all day and night. And those who would be like the clowns of old, don’t always wear make-up, they don’t need to. So, while you should keep a sharp eye on those who would seek to deceive you with appearances, remember there are those who mingle as average folk, looking just like everyone else…

A Lost Generation

~ MKW Publishing ~ 5 Comments

Anti-depressants, suicide rates and a very strange social and political landscape is laid out currently for young people (and people of all ages it would seem, but young children and teenagers in particular are getting a very stacked deck right now).

They are now saying all the drugs for depression and anxiety they have been prescribing for decades, probably don’t help. The world of psychiatry is being redefined like everything else, so no surprises there. But the fall out for real people is there. They have also now miraculously found a stunning correlation between prescribing of anti-psychotic drugs to teenagers, and a rather high rate of suicide amongst the very same age group. They are being drugged, brainwashed at school, bombarded by the media and now society is being dismantled before their eyes. We may have had to contend with the first three ourselves growing up, and kids of the 70’s will remember it definitely feeling like society was going down the pan, but what is happening now will and is affecting the current and future generations. Giving them a new range of mental illnesses, which I am sure will get named in time, the studies and ‘cures’ will follow. As is the way, although the trust in those systems is rather quickly being eroded, as they are proving themselves to be gluttonous charlatans.

And in that way, we are all the lost generation, having had something taken from us and replaced with a overwhelming societal view that others decided for us. They have named each of us too, Gen x, Gen Y and Gen Z. Given us slightly different drugs, adapted teachings slightly to separate us from the last, making sure there is limited cohesion and shared experiences. It might sound silly but a small thing from school made me start thinking it. I put a line through the number 7 when I write it, and I had no idea that others didn’t, until I left school. I then started hearing about the difference between O’level, and GSCE, and what seems like a small normal change to update things, struck me as a really good way to make sure people from one generation to the next, don’t have the same skills, or teachings, or knowledge. Then I linked it to history and other things they teach, knowing that if the teacher is misinformed, then the students will be too. A very simple, yet effective way to make sure certain things you would like in the general populous as knowledge, to be so. And by naming a generation and giving it a cut-off point, it also helps to imagine you are separated, stand-alone, unique. And having your own time is special, of music, fashion, social changes – but it is not unique, and should help to bind us a society, bringing fresh and new perspectives on things and developing in a natural way. Instead, it has been used to help divide us, with a few little nudges along the way.

The boomer generation, the latchkey kids, the computer generation – those were the names I think before we were abbreviated to merely a letter of the alphabet. Our generational experiences summarised into one letter, I guess to minimise its meaning, to make it smaller and easier to categorise. But what of the new kids on the block, what I’m sure they will dub ‘the covid generation’ or something ridiculous like that, to define the era they came into being, or found themselves growing up. Then will be neatly repackaged as Gen-C. I have speculated in my article What comes next about them being called Gen-E, hinting at Generation Experiment. But we all are, and have been for more than an age or two. And what they will be called is irrelevant, it’s just a continuation of the old system, but with a new facade, a new front and image and new group to work on and with. That’s why I say we are all the lost generation, because so many decades and centuries have already been lost to those who seek to ‘parent’ us and give the appearance of holding our hand through life. But they are actually keeping us prisoner from life. More so in the last few years, but if you look back to their insidious creep into every aspect of life over the decades, you can see this has been coming for a long time. It was a piece at a time gave thought to that, and where it is headed. .

So, does understanding and seeing what they are doing change it? Not on the face of it, but change isn’t always obvious and it doesn’t always have to be big to make a difference. It all starts somewhere…

As It Goes

~ MKW Publishing ~ 1 Comment

As we watch the inevitable destruction of the economy really pick up pace, it is dawning on people now what’s going on, to a point. It may be pubs leading the way in the news and on social media, and with the reach they have, it can only help to be shouting it from the rooftops. But all businesses premises are going to be affected, and homes, schools, supermarkets and the list goes on. Covered yesterday in Pubs, inns and taverns.

But what of the mental impact it’s having on people. The anguish being caused directly to the people shutting up shop and losing their livelihood, and to the folk who have to watch it happen. Feeling helpless, angry and dismayed at what is unfolding. And rightly so. It’s a travesty, and not one that can be recovered from lightly – once they are gone, they are gone. Seeing and hearing constantly about terrible things happening, things that are coming, and nothing to look forward to can have a devastating impact on someone, child and adult alike. That by itself can be debilitating to some. Even if we did see it coming, they made it clear where it was going, but hoodwinked a lot of folk into thinking they would never let it get to this, while the rest saw the obvious switch, meaning it would actually lead to this.

Remember when they introduced furlough? Billions on it, for people to sit nicely at home and play the game – and some of us said they were setting us up, and there would be a huge cost to it, not just in money. Well, now this is the next level of the same game, it was always a trap, and some just jumped right into it. Many did, millions in fact, and it was enough to lead us to here. Where there are still billions of pounds available to help you, but they don’t want to. They actually want the destruction, because no sane logical human being would continue down this route. Unless helping wasn’t on the cards. Once you understand they are actively trying to hinder and destroy, it makes a lot more sense when you look around. To What you see here.

Because to many it doesn’t make sense, as they are still thinking along the lines that it should. Which can also lead to getting a bit stuck, mentally. Toiling over the reasonable approach and end up becoming bewildered and exasperated at the lack of reason and logic. And there one stays, in a state of mild shock and never quite moving forward to the next stage, anger. Plenty are there already, don’t get me wrong, but they are also stuck, as the anger can’t be resolved and therefore festers and grows. Part of what they are counting on, but isn’t as straightforward as you might think. The consensus is, they will push for civil unrest, impose martial law, and then the implementation of the digital prison is rolled out in full. Which I don’t argue with, but that only works if the anger they have created, is not directed at them. It needs to be people against people, fighting each other for a place in the new regime. Division and hatred are used as weapons as much as any violence or artillery, but they are not as obvious, so many don’t even notice.

A major red flag should have been at the beginning of this debacle, when they announced that they had a ‘nudge unit’ of behavioural scientists drawing up plans to convince, manipulate, coerce and brainwash people into complying, but making it seem like their decision. I knew then they would use that against people when the time came, and indeed they did. Now when it comes to liability, very quickly becoming a taboo word, they very quickly positioned themselves away from responsibility, showing really why those coercive methods were used. But they still sound quite cold and detached when named as such, let’s call it what it really is. Fear tactics. Also dubbed Project Fear, i started using this name early on, as others did it seems, many of us saw it, recognised it and even tried to warn others. But fear can be paralysing, to body and mind, and not necessarily both at the same time. Your body can still be going through the motions, yet your mind is not quite taking part, instead just in stasis somewhere in mind.

And that is what they created and used to get people on board with their frenzied relentless pursuit of medical dominion over the population. A power that no person or corporation should have over the masses. Ever. But it really does seem as though they expected everyone to be fooled, and to roll over and turn into scared headless chickens, waiting for the next sign to know what to do. My previous piece Mass Psychosis or Run Around covered this from the angle of the people who did.

But what of now, where we are today, no longer in the grip of a manufactured ‘pandemic crisis’, we have lurched on to a ‘climate and energy crises’, where guess what? Simply money and restrictions can yet again save the day. Colour me shocked. Not only are we witnessing what appears to be the biggest money laundering operation in plain sight, everyone is being taken down with it, well, everyone at a certain level of society anyway. And whether they thought we would be too stupid to see it, or that everyone would just get on board with their sinister, heartless, illogical and deviant plans, I’m not sure. Given the stresses they have presented to people to now have as a daily routine, I suspect many people are not falling in line, or just going along with the new rules set before them. Enough are though, and that is where it gets interesting, because I have speculated on their being a split society in my piece There was always going to be two, and it seems a split is occurring. Not just with the divides of old – class, politics, money, race, employment, location, but with new ones added for foreign politics, personal medical history, illnesses.

It’s a systematic sensory overload, and one that many aren’t meant to make it through mentally, phsycially, emotionally or financially. Because if they can’t get to you physically, they will try to get to you mentally, through real or virtual threats and it’s a knock on effect. It suits their purpose for us to speculate, and although I might not like it, by even writing about it, I am helping in a small way to contribute to their project fear, by highlighting and detailing it. But I do it in the hope that by explaining it, and breaking it down into a logical format, that others may be able to see through the illusion that they have us all over a barrel, because at this stage, that it is only how it seems. We may not know where this goes or how this ends, but being afraid of the unknown shouldn’t make us just accept something that is known. Knowing when to Walk Away is important, both in body and mind. Keep your wits about you, stay sharp and try and keep your head above water, seems like a flood is coming…
