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…

Pubs, Inns and Taverns

~ MKW Publishing ~ 2 Comments

It’s a pressing issue right now, and the tip of the iceberg for the decimation that seems to be in play. But lots of people seem to miss the point of how important pubs are and have been, especially in helping to shape our notorious ‘island mentality’. They have a rich, colourful history and have played an important role. But they are also social places, where if you put the consumption of alcohol to one side, has many benefits to the wider community. Of course, they have played their own part in nefarious activities in the past, and been haunts of all sorts of types, but on the whole they have been known as a place for the normal folk to enjoy each other’s company, food, a drink and a laugh. And information, and solace, and respite, and so much more.

But times they are a changin’. And what of the pub and the old ways that are on their way out by force, some people say they are outdated and there’s no need for them anymore anyway. People drink too much, it’s too expensive and doesn’t pose any continued social benefit. That it is clinging on to a bygone era and just because we always have, doesn’t mean we always should. And I agree with that, but not entirely on this one. Of course, it’s ridiculous that energy companies can be allowed to just hike their prices by 400%, and it shouldn’t be so, that people are forced out and the forced death of an industry, jobs, communities and more. Because it won’t just stop at pubs, it’s shops, bakeries, gyms, restaurants, care homes, hospitals etc. It’s crippling what they are doing and very real lives and livelihoods are going to be lost and under threat while they play their ‘virtual green game’. Because they do not do as they say, in fact the complete opposite. So, while you are meant to cut back, spend every penny of savings you have (and get in debt if you haven’t got any), sit in the dark and think of better times. They are not cutting back though, are spending others money like it is water and are lighting their own homes and lives at our expense. I suspect it makes others feel nauseous too just thinking about and seeing what they are doing.

But that is where we are being rendered mute, and helpless. Like you are in a big tub, and it keeps being filled up with water by someone. You say you’re going to drown, they just keep putting more in and shrugging at you. They are slowly pulling up the ladder at the same time, expecting you to just tread water until you run out of energy, then drown. It’s a set up, and one you aren’t meant to navigate successfully or survive intact. That is the point. Once you realise that, their choices and decisions make more sense, and you realise they need to be ignored, like the inane rantings of a madman should be.

Give thought to what jobs and industries there will be once the highstreet, towns and communities are changed even further beyond recognition. While they take away normal hardworking jobs, they are stealthily replacing them with tech jobs, monitoring jobs, enforcer jobs, security jobs etc. That’s how you split society further, by offering ‘new jobs’ to replace, and survival instinct works in different ways for different people. There will be plenty who decide those jobs are worth it so they can feed themselves and their family. Because most of the time, that’s the starting point for people, food, shelter, clothing. If you can get people at that stage, make them insecure and worried, you’ve mostly got them. Further in, thinking is not as malleable.

So, it may seem like just a pub, or just a bakery, or a library, or a gym, or a cafe, but they aren’t. They are a lifeline and part of the community at large and necessary. But when they are stripped back, minimised and corporatized, something quite soulless seems to creep in and is trying to take over that last pocket of freedom and trade. All of it.

Giants

~ MKW Publishing ~ 9 Comments

There has been talk of giants for generations, hundreds of years in fact across multiple continents in varying forms. It could just be that some tales are just too fantastical and stay with us for reasons unknown, or it just could be, that it’s because they were whispers of truth, turned into tales and stories to make sure they stayed with us. To help us to understand that there once was a different time, of giants and titans, of Myths, monsters and legends, when a different atmosphere was perhaps around us and these things were not so out of the ordinary. They seem so outrageous now because everything has been ‘normalised’ and scaled down, but who is to say we will not have a time like that again one day.

Frost giants and Azguard – mentioned briefly in the linked article above, but I had no idea how intricate the lore is, and how when it is read in the context of their being far away frozen lands, inhabited by giant unknown beings, it doesn’t sound as crazy as it once did. Stories of cities in the sky and other things start to link in as well, if you are so inclined to that train of thought.

Jack and the beanstalk – this one is just a children’s story, and fun to think there could be magic beans, but that is not what interests me about it. Take away the magic means and cow to market bit, and focus on the tall tree like structure that grows up into the sky, to the land above. Where there are giants.

Titans / Nephilim – going back to biblical times, and written in the books of Enoch there are titans (think of the film Clash of the Titans, where they are in their godly giant palaces above, tinkering with and setting the fate of man). There are also the Nephilim, which were supposed to be of giant stature and are part of the angels who were cast out and procreated with humans. Lots to unpack there.

The Giants Causeway – In Ireland there is geological wonder called the giants causeway, literally names after a Giant called Finn MacCumhaill. And if you look around the whole British Iles, there are a strange number of tales and folklore about giants, things named after them and records of them. Makes you wonder if they really are all just made up, well, makes me wonder anyway.

Long Meg – There is a tale of a Giantess at the time of Henry VIII, who lived in London Town but came from the countryside. Most might think nothing of it, but having visited a site up north of what is claimed to be large neolithic stones called, Long Meg and her Daughters, I wondered. And we all know it’s fairly easy to make something either stick, or drop from history. Through the cunning use of inquisitions, burning, torture and ridicule, they usually got everyone singing the same tune, if you catch my drift.

Slight side note – I looked up where April Fools came from the other day, as I have been looking at different calendars around the world and in the past. I already knew we have moved the year from April to January, as the tax year is still running to the old one. New year’s eve used to be at the end of March, and April marked the start of the new one. Then some bright spark decided to change it to January (you see where they can then change time, add things, take it away), and everything changed. 1752, they moved it. But not everyone remembered or was on board, so they took to mocking anyone who celebrated new year on April 1st. Calling them fools.

Six fingered giants – Afghanistan, it seems we have recent stories of giants too, not just old school myths. This one during the Afghanistan conflict, where soldiers encountered a six fingered giant in the mountains they say and a number of soldiers were killed rather gruesomely. There have also been a few strange stories emerging from the desert regions, so who knows.

Patagonia – many a traveller and explorer wrote of there being giants in Patagonia, they are named as such and drawn on maps of that time, talked about in local lore, stories, paintings, legends etc. So, I do wonder if they simply were eradicated and then removed from history as much as possible. To make the world an ordinary, scaled down, small version of itself. To hide the true size and fantastical past of this realm, and what it and we are capable of? Perhaps.

BFG – A fictional story by Roald Dahl, and a very enjoyable one I read and watched as a child. And although is meant to be purely fictional, made me think of other lands inhabited by other creatures, lands just above us, or below us. And dreams are another kettle of fish, but the strangeness of this story did not pass me by. It’s not just a simple story about giants, there is more to it, but for this article, it’s about giants.

The Selfish Giant – a moral tale for children, but doesn’t just feature an old grumpy man as with Ebenezer scrooge, no, this one is a giant. Could just be as with the BFG, a story for children and nothing more.

There may be nothing to the tales and legends, and it could all be nonsense. But sometimes I can’t help thinking it isn’t…

I have also recently written a new fictional short story about giants, which can be found here – In the mountain

Long Meg

Changing Into What Exactly?

~ MKW Publishing ~ 7 Comments

They make no secret of it; it is not some wild conspiracy and is in fact being implemented in front of us and around us. Changing humans from what we are, into something else. Augmented humans seem to be on the horizon, as well as disrupted, corrupted and spliced humans too. A mixture of fiction and fact is always at work, so I try and dissect one from the other, to work out what is happening, what is likely, and what really is, still total fiction.

The Island of Dr Moreau – it’s been a difficult read to be honest, not an uplifting story by any means and somewhat of a chore to get through, but get through it I did. I haven’t seen or read any other version having avoided the movie, and have gone for the original story by H.G Wells. It’s bleak and cruel, and highlights an obsession with making animals more human through ‘medical intervention’. It is what it is, but makes me think of current people we have at the head of institutions who also seem to be instigating and overseeing terrible experiments of animals and humans. I wonder if they are trying to do the opposite at all, to make humans more animal like?

Pig Hearts in people (surgery) – this was hailed as a breakthrough, and for some I’m sure it is. But for me, it was another step forward in the weird landscape we call society. Firstly, I wondered how it is that we can be compatible for such a major organ with just an average animal, leading to thoughts of wondering if there has been some tinkering previously. Could it be that we have actually engineered all the domesticated animals around us already? Or that pigs originally came from humans? Sounds wild I know, but I followed the thought, realising that if it were so, it would be a very good reason why you weren’t supposed to eat them (religions of Judaism and Islam). And as usual, I will put in a movie reference here which started the idea forming all those years ago for me. Willow. The witch put a curse on the invading army soldiers and turns them all into pigs. Simple, yet enough to get me wondering.

Animal cells used in medications, notably Monkey kidney cells used in vaccines, recent and of old. There being a particular incident in the 50’s where millions of Americans were given contaminated polio vaccines, which were infected with a simian virus SV40, which can cause tumors and cancers. Turns out Monkeypox didn’t occur in the wild as a side point, it developed in macaque monkeys held in a facility being used for testing in central Africa. So much has developed under the watchful gaze of mankind, and by their hand.

Shapeshifters/Changelings – we have many legends about these, and of there being something else that lives amongst us, sometimes looking like us, but through mimicry. I sometimes wonder if it really could be possible to have a being that can alter themselves at a molecular level, but then I think how stupid, now we are talking T-1000 or X-men type stuff. Both of those in particular about liquid metal being part of the skeletal frame, or the basic material for the structure. Yet still I wonder and although a slight deviation from the man/animal theorem, it still seems relevant when you think of the new obsession of assimilating us with chips and implants.

Following into their want for human beings to be ‘plugged in’, as many a movie reference has inferred, hooked up and integrated with the mainframe. A certain international organisation seems to have a nominated mascot who is the mouthpiece of how they want us to be bio-mechanical beings essentially, being constantly monitored, tested, observed and upgraded. Weird huh? Yet they gleefully put these plans forward and explain how and when. Just not really covering the why, or at least the real reasons for it. But you can make up your own mind on what their purpose really is, but what is out there for everyone to see, is that they do want control. Of your daily activities, thoughts, fears, aspirations (if there are any left), and generally of your future. So that is where you do get to take an active role, unless you already consider your life forfeit and have already accepted their new regime and landscape. But if you do not and have not, and you have chosen to live, then now is the time…
