Beyond Meat or Beyond Ridiculous?

We’ve heard much of late about synthetic meat being pushed on society. They try to paint a terrible picture of real meat and how apparently damaging farming is to the environment. But instead they want to build factories and give you a processed synthetic version, which also needs resources, but also lots of chemicals, and has less nutrition.

Suddenly some of the previously well organised and placed ‘protests’ against meat make sense. The school friday walk outs, extinction rebellion, and the current ones against milk or oil. They want to influence a certain impressionable section of society, through very well funded groups. Funded by the very industries often they claim to be trying to bring down, like the oil one.

But they want farmers out of the way and being in control of our own food gone. I covered this in If you control the food, but with every move they now make a further attack on our way of life, it needs to be connected for people. Sales aren’t looking good already for beyond meat, people say it tastes horrible. Which then makes me wonder about all those protein based vegetarian products they have touted for years as being healthy. Why isn’t that being pushed more? Why try and design a more complicated, costly, not as good version of something we already have that is just fine? Forcing through quotas and culls for healthy animals, cutting the lifeline off for many with one action. Taking a life, a livelihood, and food for many as well as the genetic lineage from the stock pool.

This isn’t about animal or people welfare to them, it’s about stats, charts, projections, profits and control. You would do well to start using your local farm shops, grocery shops and paying in cash. Learning about nutrition and growing, take responsibility for your own life and food a bit more if you can. It’s all tied in together, as we all are in the bigger picture that unfolds at a frightening pace. They talk of destroying the economy, industries and society in such a casual manner that we must not forget how serious the implications are for all they are doing. There is nothing casual about this, or accidental and it isn’t incompetence, however much we would like to think it is. Stay sharp, there are some more strange times coming our way…

It seems to be falling…(poetry)

It seems to be falling

And breaking apart

The house of lies

That was used to start

A coercive attack

And divisive move

With sinister purpose

Which now we can prove

Was used as a weapon

And fearful tool

To get their results

They had to fool

A number of people

And get them in hand

Reading the script

That they had pre planned

Because it would seem

That despite all the loss

The heartache and grief

They don’t give a toss

Yet something now happens

A few folks have stirred

And have realised

Just what has occurred

~

And how wrong it all really was

There Was A Time Before

Not to be confused with The Before Time 😉 article, which is of a more recent past. This one goes back a bit further, and concerns electricity, high prices, bills and the current orchestrated ‘cost of living crisis’ which looms over the country. From one ’emergency’ to another, eh? Don’t get me wrong, we are in an emergency, just not the one they say we are, which is neatly distracting everyone from what they are up to and have done being the cause of the problem.

While paying attention over the years, I noted that they seemed pretty keen on blocking up old fireplaces, and building new houses without them. I thought then it seemed folly, what if there was a grid issue, or we couldn’t produce electricity for whatever reason? I grew up without central heating as a constant, and we relied sometimes on an open fire, or bottled gas heaters when we didn’t have it, so it seemed an obvious thing to keep, from my point of view. As a manual back-up for a weak, overloaded system which at some point would surely fail, or be restricted. And here we are, and not quite by accident I must say. There is a reason they took away people’s ability to heat their own homes, and are looking to impose further regulations and restrictions on wood burners and fires. Do you see the pattern yet?

So, let’s go back to the not-too-distant past, where we didn’t have electricity running freely into every home and being available ‘at the flick of a switch’. Everything still worked, albeit by different means and at a different pace, but we had shops, pubs and inns, hotels, houses, industry and commerce. So, I find it quite strange how suddenly we are being told, and quite incorrectly I might add, that we must cut back, and not have enough power or fuel to provide heat, or enough to grow food or transport. All those things revolving around their quota of ‘carbon output’. Which they invented and decided the scale for by the way, fixing the system to their own advantage as has been done for a rather long time. So, how is it, that for many centuries, without constant electricity and invention of all these electrical gadgets and conveniences, did people manage to sustain themselves? How did villages, towns and cities thrive and go on to build huge empires? Quite the mystery.

Yet now we have this wonderful thing called ‘electricity’, we are going down the pan, fighting amongst ourselves repeatedly and in more elaborate ways, and using it to enslave humanity within a digital prison. Doesn’t sound very advanced to me, just presenting the illusion of being so, to trick people into thinking because it is digital and technological, that it must be progressive. When clearly it is not so. It’s being used for destructive purposes and not for advancement at all, instead it is being used for enslavement. Electricity was our first tether, seemingly followed by the wires, cables, phones etc. Now we have wireless we are led to believe that electricity is actually now just all around us, without the need for cables and wires at all, making it seem more open. Still tethered though. But to them, they who provide the ‘access’ to it, gatekeep it. Charge you for it, bind you to it. They want everything dependent on it, in their world you will need it to have food, shelter, employment, friends and generally what they call a life.

But in reality, you don’t need it for any of those things, they can all be achieved through manual ways and means. It’s just ‘easier’ and more ‘convenient’ to use electrical machinery and systems. Or at least it was. The goalposts have changed, dramatically, and so must our thinking towards it. What they show as the future is rather sterile, ordered and emotionless, more like a simulation of a life, but without something very important. Reality. Which sounds odd I know; how could you possibly have a life without it being reality? It seems you can, by way of their virtual augmented future plans, it’s easily done. But we have already started to slip towards it through living online, being heavily integrated with online systems and procedures already. It’s an alternate reality being constructed around us, slowly and piece by piece. My article It was a piece at a time, shows how it can be done without people even noticing. So, by the time it switches, you know no different and accept the almost seamless slip from one reality into the next, as it seems somewhat familiar by now.

It does appear as though their entire future is based upon electricity and the need for it, without it none of their systems can work. The digital ID’s and scanned QR passes into every establishment wouldn’t work, the constant monitoring online and cameras, wouldn’t work, the ability to beam propaganda into every home and TV screen, wouldn’t work. Their omnipotent illusion just wouldn’t hold up without it, and the strange future they seem to have planned for countries by way of control through these mechanisms, seem wholly dependent on it. A key to their success perhaps, without it, the whole system fails. But society and people can thrive without it, and certainly can when it isn’t being used as a weapon against us. Power means power, literally.

The sum of all recent… (poetry)

The sum of all recent

And worldly fears

Destroying the future

Now taking our years

Time we should realise

That can’t be redone

A darkness that’s spreading

We just can’t outrun

But if you could see

And now understand

That what did occur

Was meticulously planned

And put into place

From the longest age

Laying foundations

And setting the stage

For a sinister plan

No longer in mind

An audacious plot

The heist of mankind

There’s still but a chance

Although maybe slim

That we don’t have to be

At their beck and their whim

~

We do not have to be slaves to the system

Life has now taken… (poetry)

Life has now taken

A rather odd twist

A darkness that’s spreading

And one to Resist

The fabric of humans

Is under attack

Something’s now changed

There’s no going back

A new way is coming

Who knows where it ends

A need to stop wrongs

To then make amends

Before they take over

And mean we are spent

They want full control

In their plan to augment

And take what we are

To make something new

Discarding the old

And trying to screw

What has come before

And to make you forget

Accepting instead

Their buckled reset

But now is the time

With new eyes to see

And to think of a world

Where folks can be free

~

Don’t let it become a myth

Face Of A Clown, In Story Town

You may have guessed what the overall theme of this is by the title, if not, you will. Clowns have never sat well with me, and is the case for many I have learnt along the way. There may be various reasons for this, as the list of references below may reveal. But there is a crossover for me, into pantomime dames and other garish forms of ‘entertainment’ which use an overly exaggerated version of something, often in a stereotypical way, for you know, entertainment. But I have never found the representation of a ‘woman’ in these situations to ever be appealing or even funny. I cringe at panto stuff, but understand because of times past that apparently men were cast in the female roles for those things because women weren’t allowed on stage. Don’t get me wrong, when done correctly, men in drag or as dames can be hilarious and very on point. Some of my favourites being Monty Python, Kenny Everett and Lily Savage. So I decided it must be something else I am not enjoying about it, something not as obvious and which wasn’t funny.

The recent story time debacle going on has made me think about it and what it is that I personally don’t like or find comfortable about it, to revisit the theme as it seems remarkably similar in the way it is being presented. Just a bit of fun for kids. Firstly, I personally see no reason why you would need to dress up for story time, unless the outfit was appropriate to the story – i.e., Princess story = princess dress, dragon story, dragon outfit, relative to the activity and wouldn’t it be more fun to have the children also engage in dress up, after all, they enjoy it the most don’t they? Children can be very easily distracted and if they have something visual to look at kind of demanding their attention, then how much of the story is really going in anyway? But recently as the stories are being reported more and people protest to them taking place, I can’t help thinking the outfits and make-up of these ‘performers’ are really quite terrifying. I have been watching horror movies since I was a child, I know disturbing. Rather demonic and overwhelming on the senses in my opinion, and to a child who may take that imagery home with them, mull it over and give it lots of thought without any real context or understanding is a potential concern. To me anyway. Maybe not so much to others.

The reason I have an issue with garish presentation specifically being aimed at cashing in on children’s love of bright, sparkly, shiny colourful things, is because it’s been used before for nefarious purposes.

John Wayne Gacey – He was a serial killer in the 70’s who killed lots of young men. And one of his side hobbies was being part of a clown club, which gained him the name killer clown, but he didn’t kill as a clown. Interesting though is what he had said about why he enjoyed being a clown “acting as a clown allowed him to regress into childhood”. That is why it’s on this list.

IT – We should all know this clown Pennywise, either the original (to which I refer), or the remake, or the book. An awful and very scary depiction of a clown in full demonic mode. Enticing a child with a red balloon. Honestly, I thought about little Georgie for a long time after that.

McDonalds – Yes, the fast-food chain. Who’s main advertising tool was a clown, weird really for food. And food that has turned out to not be the healthiest, a slight leap from serial killers to bad nutrition, but neither are in the future interests of the child. Gratification and profit seem to be heading of the wheels of these machines.

Child catcher (chitty chitty bank bang) – Need I say more? Possibly not, but I will. Lollipops and music, to lure the children into the cage.

Hansel & Gretel – a gingerbread house and sweets to lure them in.

Pied Piper of Hamlin – music and dance to get the children to follow and be led to their abduction.

The last two may be Fairy Tales, but I believe there is always a thread of truth running through them too, as with movies and stories that remain with us. All of these things highlight a child’s tendency (and some adults too), to have their attention taken with something that seems bright and bouncy, but without knowing what is really going on. I don’t fully understand the need to expose school age children from nursery to secondary school to drag acts. I have read an account of a private school in the states that had a drag act sprung on them in church service. Heels and sequins parading up and down the aisle, for what purpose I cannot imagine. Why is it that we have a niche part of the adult entertainment industry suddenly being inserted into educational environments, religion and everyday society and events? It’s baffling to me.

What is also baffling, is how women have been slagged off and vilified for years for wearing heavy makeup, and what some consider to be inappropriate clothing but now it’s men doing it, that’s fine and we just clap and say well done. I really don’t get it. She’s a slapper or a prostitute for wearing that, but he’s a hero. Am I the only one thinking WTAF is going on here, are we actually in the Twilight Zone? Maybe it is just me that sees the overdoing of the outfits and makeup as a cover for something, whether they are hiding from themselves or something darker, that remains to be seen, but having to outwardly express yourself in such a garish manner, means you are compensating for something in my view. Why aren’t you comfortable as you? Why the extra razzle and dazzle? I just see painted faces and outfits pretending to be something, rather than it being an expression of self. I think I must be missing their whole point. How can you ever be you, if you are trying to be something or someone else?

Then and Now

History is doomed to repeat itself, and other phrases of that nature, presume to let us know that if we don’t learn the lessons of the past, we will be fated to the make the same mistakes thereafter.

But I do not think it’s that simple. One cannot simply make the mistakes of 100 years ago for example, they were of their time, we are instead making all new ones. And it’s easy to distract people from now, by making them think of then, and that is where for some, the correlation ceases to exist for them in the now. But methods and ideals of the past as we are told, are being used currently, so they become present realities rather than long lost metaphors or atrocities. One I am reminded of by way of the current farming situation growing all over the world, is the famous photograph of America. The one with the huge pile of buffalo skulls, with the caption that to get control of the native population and control them and their land, they wiped out nearly their entire food supply. Control the food, control the people (covered in the recent article If you control the food). Another of those ‘past’ sayings that has remained all the way through the last century and now serves to haunt us. Because that is where we are. After they have tried to persuade, coerce, herd, manipulate and even kill people into following their plan, this is their last big guaranteed winning card. Or so they think. Because they need everyone to comply and go along with it, early on. To get weary of the toil, of the pressure and continuous threats to safety and wellbeing, for it to grind away at any hope and happiness there once was, and in its place to remain a useless and needy specimen.

People have actually started to push back, to pay attention and realise the depth of the situation. Indeed, there may be an element of disruption in their plans to overwhelm Europe with immigration, and in their digital net being cast to include more of our daily lives. But it’s not going smoothly or to plan it would seem, it appears there is a hurried, chaotic and disintegrating air about it while it unfolding around us. We can see it and feel it. Well, some can. But it feels as if a cycle is coming to an end, that there is a predetermined clock ticking down, bringing something with it. I suspect there is a very good reason we are distracted by Time and the powers that be make sure we have it drummed into us, and constantly repeated throughout our lives. As they do with history, regurgitating ‘facts’ and dates all lined up neatly into a chronological order so they can use it and refer to it as needed, to solidify their version of events and the past in our minds. Because if we did not know about history, how could we possibly know if we were doomed to repeat it? And maybe that’s part of the problem, and why we do repeat certain things or will always be doomed to the same fate. We are creatures of repetition and replication, it’s our comfort zone as humans, or for most. Maybe because foolishly somewhere there is a belief that ‘it will be different this time’ but it never is. Unless you can break the cycle you are doomed to repeat by way of education. The system of indoctrination is vast and far reaching, going back generations and means we are all Institutionalised in some way.

Yet, despite them ‘educating’ us in history, we only know what they decided to teach us. So much of it has been omitted, fabricated, bastardised, mistranslated, personally interpreted, stolen, hidden or destroyed. So, we are left with fragments of truth and real history scattered throughout a patchy timeline at best. As if the past and knowledge are a jigsaw puzzle, let’s say a 1,000 piece one. You get given 5 pieces that are real pieces, and 50 that are not to start you off, and then asked to decide what the picture is. You don’t really know, so you’ll have to ‘trust’ what they tell you it is or decide to wait and see. Throughout your life however, you start finding more pieces of the jigsaw, small pieces here and there in odd places, sometimes a handful at once. And as the picture begins to emerge, you are realising that it isn’t anything like you had been told it would be. Starkly different in fact. So, you want more pieces of the puzzle, you want to know what it is they didn’t want you to know. Because the only way things can be hidden away, is because they are known and exist as a piece of the puzzle.

We all may have our own jigsaw puzzles on the go, or not, and some people may be just fine with the given version of our past and history and for them there are no more questions. But for some of us, it does seem that there is an awful lot to be uncovered and rediscovered, and it really is starting to feel as if we need to get on it, time is getting on…

It all starts to unravel

I think I can see why certain people won’t accept the current state of affairs when it’s explained, is obvious, or plenty of evidence is being presented. Once you admit one thing, or understand what has been revealed, then it’s like a cascade event occurs. Or at least should. But I presume that there is a mechanism in some people’s thought process, that inhibits them from thinking it through. Because deep down they know, but it’s just too awful to admit, so they detach from reality to maintain their delusion of everything being ok. Because if you start to question the methods and motives of the ‘establishment’ and all its branches, and see what others see, it’s not a comfortable feeling. And not one that anyone would choose. But it has become starkly obvious of late, that we are not being looked after, or helped, or governed. We are being hoodwinked and led astray down a very dark path.

Many don’t want to, or can’t admit that. And many others have, and countless more are becoming aware of it daily. It’s an awful realisation to know someone or something that claimed to have your safety and best interests at heart, doesn’t. And in fact, means the opposite, to cause you and yours harm. You need to accept a number of things, firstly that you have been duped, secondly you are on your own, and thirdly, they mean you harm. It’s a lot to take in and adjust your way of thinking accordingly. The feelings you firstly get from being duped don’t have a timescale, and anger can linger and become destructive rather than be useful to drive you on, instead you get stuck. You need to work through the anger and reserve it for later. Secondly, understanding you are on your own can be quite scary. Where once you thought there was a system of help out there in the authorities for food, education, health and finance, is suddenly all on you. That can be isolating, frustrating and frankly quite terrifying if you’ve never considered it before. And thirdly to understand that there is a threat to your persons, just not the one you maybe thought it was. So technically that one should be easier, you just need to redirect your fear or worry towards the right target. Not always the case, but can happen.

So, where do you go once reality starts to unfold and the can of worms is opened? Each person will have their own experience of knowing what was and is coming and how long they have understood the mechanisms being put in place within society which will lead to one logical outcome. The digital monitoring and enslavement of humanity, one country at a time. They do not care if the cattle are happy, they just want what we can give them and need us to fit into their elaborate plan. Which is why I believe keeping people apart, separated and divided by petty and trivial matters works to their advantage, massively. Because we benefit and flourish in the presence and company of others, even just being near people is ok for some, getting human energy from each other. Recharging (and draining) each other, that’s why we are important. We can also share a range of information with people when in person, by way of language, expressions, observations, sharing thoughts, ideas and hopes. These are the things they want to monitor and control as well as your physical way of life. And it cannot be allowed to happen. Misery is a monitored man; I will tell you that now. They monitor you in prison, they put you in isolation in prison, and they have a lack of privacy in prison for a reason – because it is a punishment. So, anyone who would truly think that is a good option and way of life for the general population on a ongoing daily basis, is not on our side.

Which means we need to discuss the can of worms. You know, the huge one getting bigger by the day, which we were laughed at for saying would happen two years ago. The one about a dystopian future, governments out of control and a certain pharmaceutical product being used to bring about illness, injury and death. Yeah, that one. Although I have written many articles about what I thought would happen, we are now watching it actually happen. The heart attacks and other side effects, the take-over of people’s lives by way of finance, the shut-down of rights, protests and liberties by governments in various countries. It’s all there, right in front of people now, and even the press sector seems to be getting a little jittery, and rightly so. It may be that their time has come and gone to be able to help us now, they too will be thrown under the bus like every industry gradually. They will not need doctors and nurses as they will have their medipods and personally trained staff, they won’t need pilots or police, robots have already been designed for that – if anything it will be software engineers who will be needed once it’s up and running (if not already). They will have smart cities in place ready to go for the populations they do want to keep, and keep them they will, in a controlled environment under their supervision. Or at least that seems to be what they are hoping for. Almost as if they have filtered through so much inspiration for an apocalypse and disaster that they are counting on using an illusion of one, rather than it actually happening. They want people fearful and frightened, scared of their own shadow and looking for a saviour, so they can present themselves as such. But the ones who ruined you, are not the ones to save you, just remember that…

Getting hurt by words

I’m sure many have noticed we appear to be living in a time where the phrase

‘Words are literally violence’

has entered the scene. And many laugh at it, as well they should. I’m from the not so far away time of

‘Sticks and stones may break by bones, but words will never hurt me’

so it’s quite a turnaround. And being honest, not a very good one. I believed and still do, that it’s meant for character building, preparing you for people in life, and to thicken your skin as the saying goes. Being able to take insults, or being laughed at is a life skill I thought.

But it’s a fine balance really isn’t it, and one that takes years to get right. We have all felt bad at some point because of others, either what they have said or what they have done. I believe you should listen to what people are saying and understand it, then have to decide what you take on board and what you discard, then move on. But many people are so self-absorbed, and thinking about what the words mean to them, I feel they overlook an important lesson and get stuck in the ‘poor me’ aspect. The lesson being, it usually says an awful lot about the person saying them, and sometimes, when you get to root of the why, it’s often nothing to do with you, so is a complete waste of your time to let it affect you. It’s their own anger, confusion or possibly just meaness coming through and being directed at someone else. A very sure way to deflect from their own feeling and failings.

I’ve had all sorts of insults in my time, and because I look at things logically, I usually analyse what they said, how it made me feel (if it did), then review it to understand if what they said is really what they meant. (People have a habit of not actually saying what they mean) And if they did mean it, where did it come from. That way, if I am at fault, I can usually see it, and will happily own up to said behaviour once recognised and apologise if necessarily or take action to correct it. But if it is their problem, I will definitely point it out to them.

So, how did we get to the stage where people think they are being physically attacked when they hear words that seem to shake them to their very core? Is it a lack of emotional maturity that means they can’t process what is happening, so a tantrum or meltdown may occur as with a toddler? It also could be a general lack of awareness and lack of basic communication skills. People don’t seem to understand that if you aren’t very good at communicating or lack vocabulary, you cannot explain how you feel properly to someone else. That could be quite isolating and frustrating, so you find any way you know how to get interaction and attention on whatever level is on offer. Even if that is a completely dysfunctional level.

Is it possible that there is a middle ground to be found, and that perhaps the extremes are being pushed in society because it does cause a divide of communication (left and right, red and blue, us and them etc), and means we have more difficulty explaining and expressing ourselves to each other and being understood. Which in turn leads to higher frusrations and wilder emotions, which can then cause outbursts and what we would call a failure to communicate. The people who think they are being punched with words do need to toughen up, that is for sure. Some cold harsh truths would do some people some good, and a bit of time to think them over without running to others for input before they have even given it thought themselves.

Others opinions and ideas can have a very big impact on what would otherwise have been your decisions, so make sure before you seek advice or feedback on things, you know whether you actally need advice or not. It’s very easy to panic or get overwhelmed and think you need someone elses input on something, but you don’t always know if the other person is either equipped to give said advice on that matter, or may not have your best interests at heart with the advice they give. Finding someone who is impartial and logical isn’t easy these days, if it ever was. Once you add feelings into that, it gets even more complicated. So try and be truthful to yourself and others, and know you can’t control how someone is going to feel about it thereafter, but don’t be unneccessarily mean, there is just no need for it. As we all know, the truth can hurt all by itself…

A need for people… (poetry)

A need for people

Who are most bold

To wade on through

The ones controlled

Who follow blindly

A fake narrative

Giving up freedom

And a want to live

Because this web

That they have weaved

Needed us all

To be deceived

It’s time and thought

They want to steal

So change the goalposts

Of what is real

It’s been playing out

For quite an age

The foundations were laid

For the grandest stage

To take what we are

And what came before

Making us humans

Just merely folklore
