“Truth is treason in an empire of lies.” – former U.S. Senator Ron Paul

1. Introduction (China is the Blueprint)

Many would argue that the People’s Republic of China has the most comprehensive and sophisticated censorship control grid in existence.

Having lived and worked in the Middle Kingdom for 13 years until late 2021, I tend to completely agree with that premise.

Why?

During my lengthy stay in this enigmatic country whereby its citizens are predominantly indoctrinated, herded, and restrained pretty much from cradle to grave, I have spend a considerable amount of time in observing how such a relatively small government lead by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) could exert such a mammoth level of influence and control over its populace of 1.4 billion souls.

The extent to which the CCP has transformed China into a totalitarian surveillance state has been long in the making. The days of Mao’s Cultural Revolution where marked by purges, struggle sessions and public shaming, among other methods. In the present day, the masses are more easily constrained through digital shackles and checks.

These come in various forms which include things such as social credit scores, biometric surveillance which includes facial recognition technology, digital ID cards, among many other methods, certainly including the infamous WeChat super-app.

As for the latter, the WeChat app, I am quite familiar with it for two reasons. First, I used it for many years while living in China. But more importantly, in my last two years working in China, I primarily taught several hundred employees at Tencent, the maker of the app. I taught students in multiple departments at various levels ranging from developers to high-level executives who report directly to the CEO; in doing so, I learned a lot about the orientation of the all-encompassing app and how all departments are shaping its dominance. The company is structured into many divisions and departments, including some like Big Data and AI.

Suffice it to say that in China, everybody uses WeChat and use it to pretty much do everything from buying goods, paying for a taxi ride, socialising, playing games, going to the hospital, ordering food, and accessing online services.

Every single thing they do using the app is recorded on Tencent servers and are accessible as Big Data through AI.

These range from purchasing behaviours, to how much time they spent online playing computer games, to were they have been, what they have eaten, who they have communicated with, what social media posts they have written, what travel tickets they have purchased, and so on, and so on.

And though Tencent, its employees, and its CEO, Pony Ma, will tell you that all of this data is private, the company is obligated by law to fork over any data the CCP requests.

In order to access social media outlets in China, citizens must first register using their state identification.

Online anonymity does exist, but it is quite rare.

The online surveillance apparatus in China is largely fuelled by Big Data and AI.

Much more could be said about China’s dystopian surveillance system, but let’s leave it at that.

In short, it is the envy of any country/government that wishes to exert a very high level of control over its subjects.

[Addendum on 2024-04-02] I have come across the following video produced from The New York Times which provides a detailed overview of the breadth and width of surveillance in China:

• The New York Times: How China’s Surveillance Is Growing More Invasive | Visual Investigations (June 22, 2022)

2. The Bigger Picture

With regards to all the fuss surrounding the various censorship bills that are in the works in Canada and elsewhere, it is primordial to take a step back and look at the bigger picture, a 10,000 foot overview if you will.

We must first consider what is their (note that I am being purposely unspecific in defining who they are for the moment) rationale or motivation for introducing these bills and getting them enacted as laws.

2.1 What is censorship?

Before doing so, we must first contemplate the very nature of censorship.

At its core, censorship entails the silencing individuals, suppressing information, or suppressing truth.

Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary dictionary has two entries for the word which are as follows:

“the action of preventing part or the whole of a book, film, work of art, document, or other kind of communication from being seen or made available to the public, because it is considered to be offensive or harmful, or because it contains information that someone wishes to keep secret, often for political reasons.

and

a system in which an authority limits the ideas that people are allowed to express and prevents books, films, works of art, documents, or other kinds of communication from being seen or made available to the public, because they include or support certain ideas.”

The reader may notice key words and phrases in these definitions such as:

• “offensive,”

• “harmful,”

• “information that someone wishes to keep secret,”

• “political reasons,”

• and whereby an authority “limits the ideas that people are allowed to express,” and

• “other kinds of communication from being seen or available to the public.”

As can be observed from the list above and, in short, we can see a variety of reasons on why to censor.

2.2 Why all the Censorship?

It is no secret that we have witnessed a tremendous amount of censorship during the Covid 19 Pandemic which has been perpetrated or facilitated by various institutions including health authorities, the mainstream news media, government agencies, and social media platforms.

Much of this censorship has been driven by the desire to suppress so-called misinformation and disinformation particularly surrounding the Covid-19 origins and related mandates, measure, and vaccines.

A major problem with this has been who exactly gets to define what is considered as misinformation and disinformation?

In addition, in the absence of complete information, it is nearly impossible to determine what can genuinely be considered as mis- or dis-info.

Accordingly, censoring information based on the contention that something may be considered mis- or dis-information is flawed, at best. A fallacy.

“Trust the science,” and “the science is settled” are phrases that we have often heard during the pandemic.

Yet, real science is never completely settled, nor should we completely trust it given that previously unknown facts, information, circumstances, and evidence may surface.

Parties who have called for censorship or the suppression of information related to Covid-19 have, in large part, included:

• Governments at all levels

• Public Health Agencies

• News Media

• Global supranational institutions such as the United Nations and the World Health Organization (WHO)

Moreover, the “safe and effective” claim about the Covid-19 vaccines that was frequently uttered during the pandemic by health authorities, medical doctors, and politicians has been proven to incorrect given the abundance of data and research that has been published in the past few years.

So we must now turn to the question of why, or what has been the motivation for suppressing or censoring the information.

This important question is not only limited to aspects surrounding the Covid-19 Pandemic, but is now applicable to a plethora of other societal issues ranging from war to transgender issues to climate change and more.

2.3 Handlers & Enablers

There is a dual theme that will be recurring in this post: handlers and enablers/facilitators (sometimes called minions or useful idiots).

The handlers are comprised of the parties who wish to establish and maintain certain narratives (such as “climate change is destroying the earth”, for instance).

They are those who yield a significant amount of power and influence over our institutions (governmental, regulators, associations, business, etc.).

For example, they include the likes of the United Nations, the Global Banking Cabal, the World Health Organization (WHO), and the World Economic Forum (WEF), the United States Military, but to name a few.

The enablers or facilitators are those who do the bidding of the handlers.

These include political leaders, regulators, union leaders, professional association heads (such as Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons, Bar Associations), some lawyers, judges, and influencers (in various entertainment industries such as music, movies, and sports).

There are surely more, but these are some that often figure as key enablers since they hold positions of influence in which they can facilitate the wishes of their handlers.

Their handlers often include those who fund their campaigns, push and provide funding for various agendas, e.g., the woke / transgenderism agenda, open borders.

Such handlers include billionaire-class “philanthropists” such as the Gates’, Rockefellers, and Soros’ and their charitable foundations, NGOs, lobby groups, public and private corporations.

Actually, the word philanthropist is perhaps not the most accurate; the word philantropath could be more fitting.

As for some specific examples, it is no secret that George Soros has funded many politicians and District Attorneys (DAs) in the United States as well as outfits such as Black Lives Matter.

Bill Gates, through his Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Gavi Vaccine Alliance, is the major contributor to the World Health Organization (WHO) and thus yields a significant amount of power and influence over its policy-making and agendas.

As for lobby groups, it is worth noting that in the United States, the pharmaceutical lobby is, financially speaking, the largest group yielding influence on congressional lawmakers.

Screenshot image of ‘Leading lobbying industries in the United States in 2023, by total lobbying spending (in million U.S. dollars)’. Source: Statista.

In addition, Big Pharma are some of the largest advertisers for major mainstream news media outlets.

Needless to say, Big Pharma holds a tremendous amount of influence over not only governments and their health agencies, but also the mainstream media.

Are we starting to see how the “safe and effective” narrative may have been promulgated and maintained during the Covid-19 Pandemic?

After all, the pharmaceutical giants which have sold billions of doses of their experimental injections to governments around the world have made billions in profits over the past few years. Here the figures for Pfizer and Moderna for 2021:

Screenshot showing 2021 sales for Pfizer and Moderna. Source: The Guardian – From Pfizer to Moderna: who's making billions from Covid-19 vaccines? March 6, 2021.

In a recent series, I have written about how various agendas have been aggressively pushed by certain parties (handlers) along with their complicit foot soldiers (i.e., their enablers, or minions). And I would strongly encourage the reader to read the examples provided therein; for, they showcase the modus operandi by which these agendas get funded and carried out. The ‘Open Borders’ is one I would recommend as suggested reading.

To sum up, in order to gain a clearer view of the BIGGER picture, it is important to consider that handlers and enablers are instrumental in the realisation of these ambitious projects; and, as such, they have very strong vested interests in maintaining certain narratives that help fulfill these self-serving agendas, at the expense of the masses, of course.

It is a damn shame that their minion enablers have sold out – whether through coercion, financial or power-seeking incentives/motives.

It it thus our collective duty and obligation to remind them – especially our politicians and institutional leaders – that they ought to be working for we the people rather than these outside interests.

2.4 Digital ID & CBDC

All the censorship bill, laws, and the silencing of individuals are but precursors and prerequisites to the bigger prize which include the roll-out of Digital IDs and Central Bank Digital Currencies, or CBDCs for short.

For the oligarchy who control our international banking and financial systems (see next section of this post), their ultimate goal is to get every citizen on earth linked to a Digital ID and then associate that ID with a CBDC – be it a national or global one.

We know that during the Covid-19 Pandemic, many countries adopted Vaccine Passports which acted as de facto IDs. People could not get into certain venues without it. Yours truly, included.

Although the pandemic is largely in the rear-view mirror, such kinds of Digital Vaccine Passports are being fine-tuned to be employed in countries that will adhere to the World Health Organization’s revised International Health Standards (IHRs).

In fact, the European Commission and WHO have launched a “digital health initiative” to this effect.

With this tool of tyranny in place, they can more easily establish Social Credit Score-type systems to then easily silence any individual who doesn’t obey their rules.

They can easily be de-banked or completely shut out of the financial system, and be restricted in purchases and their travels.

If you are unfamiliar with Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), I have provided a good introduction to them in a prior post. Here are a few excerpts:

“CBDCs are digital currencies that countries propose to replace their current cash, coin, and digital entry systems which would thenceforth entirely reside on a centralized (or decentralized) blockchain or ledge

Moreover, people and companies would hold the digital currency in their digital wallets, make digital payments for the purchase of goods & services, transfers to others, etc.”

Without going into too much detail about the nature of CBDCs, suffice it to say that they are extremely frightening in that every single financial/monetary transaction would be scrutinised by the system for approval and direct taxation (if applicable).

In addition, the issuer of these digital currencies would have the option of increasing its supply base which could have devastating consequences on countries’ economic well being, as I have showcased in a recent post.

For more information on the subject, consult The Mark of the Beast (Biometric Digital ID + CBDC) section of one my prior posts.

3. The Handlers: Banking Cartel’s Interoperable International Infrastructure

I will occupy

I will help you die

I will run through you

Now I rule you too

Come crawling faster

Obey your master

Your life burns faster

Obey your master, master

Master of puppets, pulling your strings

Twisting your mind, smashing your dreams

- Metallica, Master of Puppets

Now for the 50,000 foot overview.

First, I must broadly define who these “handlers” are.

By handlers, I really mean those atop the most powerful positions who are pulling the strings.

Atop of this hierarchy or pyramid of power, we find 2 groups:

These two groups consist of:

1. the “Banker Elites” which actually comprise the most hidden set of individuals; they are members of multi-generational wealthy families such as the Rockefellers, Rothschilds, etc., i.e., the ones that never appear on the Forbes Richest List; and
   

2. the Bank for International Settlements (as an extremely powerful supranational corporate entity)

This is where the real power lies, folks.

And the people who figure among these two groups command an unmatched level of influence and authority.

As such, they are the handlers who steer the course of events.

To do so (and as cowards) they employ their enablers/facilitators (see next section) for their dirty deeds. Because of this, they command from the shadows and we rarely hear who they are, or their names. Like cockroaches, they do not wish to have light shone upon them. Not one bit.

We sometime refer to them as the super-elites or the banking cabal.

Now that we have defined the term handlers, we can focus on showcasing how they go about conducting their nefarious business.

A perfect illustration of this has been masterfully presented by an exceptional journalist – Kit Knightly whose articles are often published in Off Guardian.

Knightly really nails in in her January 1, 2024 article 2024: The Year Global Government Takes Shape.

3.1 It’s all about Interoperability

As the gifted author has so perfectly encapsulated the super-elites’ plan bring about a global government, I wrote an entire section (The Great Reset: A Fascists New World Order) from a previous post citing and borrowing from her stellar work.

In it, I first highlighted the preciseness of her article’s introductory comment:

“Global government is the endgame. We know that. Total control of every aspect of life for every single person on the planet, that’s the goal,” she commences in her piece.”

I added:

“These people have riches well beyond what anyone could ever dream of.

What they want, ultimately, is absolute control over us whom they see as useless eaters, or idiotic sheep that are easily led to the slaughter.”

I also pointed out that Knightly correctly noted that they are not overtly establishing a global government that will do away with nationhood; but rather, that they intend to obtain the same effect by subverting nations’ and citizens’ sovereignty using three key tools:

1. Digital ID

2. Digital Money (CBDCs)

3. “Climate Action”

In a subsection of my post I really dive into the interoperability aspect about how these three pillars intermesh with one another to birth a Frankensteinian apparatus of total control over humanity.

Should they be successful in their implementation, they will get it.

The dangers posed to personal freedom and sovereignty from such a beast system would be immeasurable.

I already discussed Digital IDs and CBDCs which comprise the first two of three pillars. But, the third – “Climate Action” is the glue by which they will bind not only the first two, but also straitjacket us into their climate cult. In other words, they will limit our choices and actions based on our carbon footprints.

I warned about this back in October of 2022.

If part of your social credit score entails your carbon footprint, you could see your purchases limited, and travels restricted.

You’ve already purchased too much gas for your automobile this month, sorry your money won’t work at the gas station.

You’ve consumed too much red meat this month, sorry your money can’t purchase any more beyond your allowed quota.

While these examples might seem superfluous exaggerations of how digital money can be used in such a system, these kinds of restrictions are already happening in places like China and have been promoted by the likes of the IMF.

Watch the following video from the 6-minute 35 second mark:

As can be attested by the video above, Bo Li, the Deputy Managing Director of the International Mafia Federation – sorry, I meant of the International Monetary Fund, or IMF, indirectly warns you of the dangers with regards to the programmability of CBDCs.

In short, CBDCs can be programmed with a whole bunch of restrictions and these can be precisely customised and tailored on national or regional levels.

Scary as hell!

The only way the infrastructure described above (particularly with regards to financial surveillance) is possible is through the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data.

With hundreds of millions of financial transactions taking place every day, the data is enormous.

Control is the name of the game, however. And nobody does it better than the Chinese Communist Party in China.

I lived 13 years in China. And, as alluded to earlier in this post, in my last two years working there as a teacher, I mostly taught students at Tencent, the largest gaming company in the world and maker of the all-encompassing super app called WeChat, and I learned a lot from that experience.

I taught in various departments ranging from gaming, to finance, Big Data, and many others. The amount of data collected by this single app on Tencent servers is incredibly mind-boggling. It is largely used for direct-advertising, but also for a slew of other reasons and purposes.

A large part entails surveillance.

Everything, literally everything, users do with the app is stored on servers. A user’s social media comments can be censored in a millisecond if it falls out of line with the whims of the Chinese Communist Party, or CCP.

Tencent has no choice but to follow the required policies of the CCP and to fork over private user date if asked. That is the law.

The point here, is that the level of sophistication in the collection, monitoring, and surveillance of user data and behaviours is quite Orwellian to say the least.

Well, as I mentioned in the introductory section of this post, China is the model.

And this is what is currently being planned and is coming to the X platform, formerly known as Twitter (see my ‘Elon Musk’s X Empire-building, a Trojan Horse to Rule us All’ article in this regard).

Both the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) are quite present and interested in the ways that China implements and uses its infrastructure to impose a totalitarian approach to governing.

To simplify things here, the interoperable infrastructure that was mentioned earlier in this post will be enabled by AI and Big Data for total financial surveillance and control.

This is actually quite technical in nature, but I have provided a summary of how it will work in a previous post based on the BIS’s own projects called Project Icebreaker and Project Aurora. Simply click these two links if you wish to dig into their devilish details or watch the following official videos:

We can easily see their PROBLEM-REACTION-SOLUTION (Hegelian dialectic) hard at work in these two videos.

They always frame things as problems in order to generate a reaction which will lead to the implementation of their [already built] “solutions”.

To sum up this section on handlers, I will invite you to another little-known secret called the Toronto Protocols which showcases a much larger blueprint for this new world order / global governance structure that has been meticulously planned as far back as 1967.

4. “Harms” Acts / Censorship Bills, Laws being implemented around the Globe

There is no shortage of bill, laws, and horror stories of egregious diktats that have been enacted in Western countries.

Without getting into an interminable list of such occurrences, what is paramount to understand here is that these so-called bills and laws are not primarily in place to protect individuals from online or offline “harms,” (though there are legitimate cases and concerns for these); but rather, they have been designed and implemented as weapons of censorship to muzzle anyone who is critical or vocal of any of their destructive agendas.

These agendas include (non-exhaustive list):

• UN Agenda 2030

• Woke Ideology

• Open Borders

• The Covid-19 Scamdemic

• Inclusive Capitalism

• Climate Scam

These are all key components of their greater system of influence and control over governments, businesses, institutions, and the greater global population.

In other words, the nefarious dynamics of each of these components serve to help bring about their Beast System of total control.

So, one of the key questions that remains is: who are the enablers helping the handlers to weave the greater web of control?

5. The Enablers & Facilitators: The People & Parties who are pushing these bills & laws

While the handlers commanding in the shadows are essentially out of reach, the parties we really need to focus on, counter, and impede are the enablers and facilitators, i.e., those who carry out the orders delineated from the top.

They are sometimes referred to as the foot soldiers, minions, or even useful idiots.

Often, these people believe they are among a special class of privileged elites who are more intelligent than us, and who have been chosen to facilitate the machinations of their handlers.

They are often self-centered, narcissistic individuals who are void of a moral compass.

Collectively, they seek to impose their will on others. And since they are often the ones who hold important positions in government and other key institutions, they are in a great position to cause a lot of damage.

And that, they have.

This has been on full display during Covid-19 not only in Canada with the likes of Justin Trudeau (among many other figures), but in many other countries.

Watch the following video from the 8-minute mark:

Like I said earlier, I could provide many examples of such instances. But for sake of brevity, I will merely point the reader to my very recent article (Bombshell Report: Exposing the Actors behind Canada’s Online Harms Act (Bill C-63)) which demonstrates the level of sophistication behind how the enablers are mobilised to facilitate or bring about the plans of their handlers.

6. The Digital Gulag: what society will look like if they get their way

Once again, I could provide an exhaustive list of many nightmarish scenarios which would exhibit the absolutely dystopian and tyrannical totalitarian system of control which could be imposed on us should this beast system fully manifest itself.

But also for the sake of brevity and to assuage the reader’s related feelings of angst and fear, I will merely forewarn of the costs involved with being ignorant, complacent, and indifferent about it.

Once all the cogs of this beast system are in place, it will be extremely difficult for individuals to exit from it.

In particular, I am referring to two things in particular:

1. A dystopian system of financial control; and

2. A digital gulag, or system mass-censorship, punishments and inescapable persecution.

Needless to say, this is not what we want in society.

Should sweeping bills such as C-63 in Canada and the ‘TikTok Divestment Bill’ – formally H.R. 7521 Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, (a Trojan Horse) in the United States become law, I fear that this is exactly the kind of system that is going to unfold.

Bill C-63 contains a panoply of restrictions and excessive punishments that would strangle Canadians with regards to their rights to freedom of conscience, freedom of speech and expression, and press freedoms.

As per the statements of U.S. House Representative Thomas Massie, with the TikTok bill an Internet Hosting Service or even a website could be deemed a “foreign adversary” and thus shut down entirely:

That means, for instance, that an entire website like Rumble that is located in Canada could be deemed a “foreign adversary” and thus subject to censorship and other punitive restrictions, sanctions, and reprisals, or an outright closure.

Accordingly, content creators, like yours truly, who provide materials to this particular platform could see them completely removed.

Other websites and podcast platforms could suffer the same fate.

There are many more egregious provisions in each of these bills – too many to enumerate in this post. But suffice it to say, that their enablers are steadfast and hurried in their attempts to get these bills to become law so as to lay the groundwork for the censorship leviathan.

7. The Solutions

So what can we do about all this?

Is it too late?

While these parasitical handlers and enablers seem more desperate and time-pressed as of late in trying to madly push through all these heinous agendas and measures, there is certainly a window of opportunity to counter them.

This, of course, varies from country to country.

For example, it is more difficult in the European Union, given the uniformity of measures with regards to these agendas and related laws and policies across member states. We saw this in full swing during the Covid-19 scamdemic. And in the past couple of years, we are seeing how the censorship infrastructure is being cemented.

In the United States, at the federal level things are practically unfixable at this point. But at the state level, the situation is different. Blue states such as New York and California, for instance, are very much doomed. But certain red states such as Florida and Tennessee have more safeguards in place along with officials who actually respect individual rights and freedoms and the Constitution to a much larger extent.

In Canada, since Trudeau’s Liberal Government has taken power (at least on its facade), things have deteriorated significantly since 2015.

But all hope is not lost.

The mainstream media in Canada has taken a huge hit to its reputation. And there is an increasingly large portion of the greater population that are cognizant of their lies and propaganda.

As more independent media outlets and voices are revealing their many layers of corruption, it is becoming more and more difficult for them to obfuscate their crimes.

So, the first step is to continue to build on this trend by raising more awareness – especially at the local/community and grassroots level.

Many organisations such as the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), the Canadian Constitution Foundation (CFF), Police for Freedom Canada, and The Accountability Project (TAPCAN), but to name a few, are helping to shift the tide back towards freedom and justice.

The National Citizens Inquiry (NCI) has also been instrumental in informing the Canadian public about the hidden truths surrounding the Covid-19 scamdemic which was heavily promulgated buy the Liberal Government and its minion enablers.

Thus, the idea is to support these organisations, support independent media and voices such as myself (and many others) and to do your part to increase awareness.

7.1 Increase Awareness & Get Active!

As I alluded to in the previous section, the idea is for everybody get active.

It is not enough to just be aware or awake of what is going on.

The expression “Now that you’re awake, it’s time to for you to get out of bed.” rings ever so true.

It is very easy just to complain about things with like-minded people or to vent on social media. But it is much more constructive to be proactive and do something concrete about it.

Every action has a ripple effect.

Each individual has their own strengths. For some, it is writing. Others, speaking. Artistic ones, through music and singing. We saw this on full display during the Truckers Convoy in Ottawa.

Everyone has a voice and has freedom of conscience and freedom of expression in this country. Don’t ever forget that.

Over the past few decades, the machinations of political correctness and wokeness have thrust a shadow of self-censorship over us.

Many are afraid to speak their minds or speak up. This was quite evident during Covid-19. People were afraid of speaking out, lest they be cancelled by their own family members and friends.

We were (and still largely are) pitted against each other – the old divide-and-conquer tactic used by the ruling class to weaken us.

Don’t fall for it.

Have the integrity and courage to speak out when you see grave injustices being perpetrated, no matter who is doing it.

Most people have a pretty good innate sense of the difference between right and wrong. Listen to it. Trust it.

Everyone has a voice.

Use it!

It can be amplified both online like with social media, and offline such as with your neighbours, in your local community, at your local Municipal Council’s Office, or at your local School Board, etc.

Craft your message. Keep it simple, clear, constructive, and non-confrontational.

Your voice really counts. And collectively, we can really shift our vibrant Canadian society back to one with a moral voice of reason.

7.2 Push Back on Lawmakers

People need to strongly urge their political representatives to not promote or vote for bills that remove our freedoms and liberties and remind them that this will not be tolerated.

Tell them what is wrong with specific parts of the bill, or the bill as a whole and that you, as their constituent, are in strong opposition to it.

Tell them you will vote them out of office if they vote in favour of these kinds of destructive bills like C-63 and S-210. Politicians care about remaining in power and being re-elected. If you threaten that, it will resonate more clearly with them.

If nobody does this, then the bills will pass and become law.

But if a large enough number of constituents do it, then that can be a game changer.

Do it collectively rather than alone. If you call or write your MP, get like-minded friends, family, and acquaintances to do so too.

7.3 Do Not Comply

When unwarranted bill become law, or by-laws / policies / mandates / diktats come about, know your rights and refuse to abide by them if they are against other laws (such as the Supreme Law of the Land).

Get properly informed.

Ally with others for strength in numbers. We saw this during the Truckers Convoy and it scared the shit out of the enablers.

If a large enough mass of people refuse to obey immoral and unjust laws or diktats, governments and their enablers will become mostly powerless. We saw this with Vaccine Passports during Covid-19, as the masses pushed back on the dystopian measure. Governments had no choice but to cease those measures.

Get creative.

When Quebec City issued a municipal order for home owners to declare their wood stoves, the vast majority didn’t.

When the city issued an order for them to cease using their wood stoves, they sparked them up and shared videos and pictures on social media in protest. My favourite one was the following since it included a lovely hint of humour:

Humour is actually a very powerful means of protest, as is music.

That is why we are even seeing a clamp down on comedians.

Human beings are clever and creative. And there are countless ways in which we can resist tyranny.

Gather and use your wits.

7.4 Choose Social Media Platforms that don’t Censor Us

Many alternative media platforms have emerged in the past several years to counter the dominance and bullying of Big Tech outfits such as Facebook and YouTube.

Rumble and Bitchute are good alternative video platforms, though the latter has been recently subject to many attacks. Brighteon which is heavily censored on the Twitter/X platform is another one to consider.

Substack is another great alternative platform, though it is beginning to receive pressure from outside forces to censor its truth-telling voices.

Decentralised blockchain-based platforms such as Hive.blog are also good censorship-resistant alternative platforms.

There are certainly many more. But the idea here is to explore which platforms are supportive of freedom of speech and don’t submit to bullies who wish to censor their users.

The same goes for payment providers.

It’s always a good idea for content creators to be on multiple platforms at the same time since they never know when they will be the next voice shuttered.

Shop around and have your Plan B and Plan C ready to go.

With all that being said, I sincerely hope that you will join me in preventing this beast system from ever seeing the light of day.

Thank you for your time.

And may God bless you all.

Support Independent Journalism

As an independent journalist, I take great care and pride in providing my audience with quality investigatory work and writings.

This is the kind of work that is seldom reported on in as much detail by the mainstream media, for they also tend to avoid the subjects and sometimes controversial topics that I, myself cover.

As an independent, I get paid very little for this work, for the bulk of my revenue comes from Substack subscriptions, and I am mostly surviving and supporting my family by means of personal savings.

You can support my work by considering a paid subscription to my Substack – Dan Fournier’s Inconvenient Truths (for only $5 a month, or $50 a year).

I am still waiting for a Founding Member for my Substack which could be you.

For one-time donations, you can also buy me a coffee.

If you are unable to support my work financially, it is greatly appreciated if you can share it on your social media feeds, for this brings additional exposure (and much needed eyeballs) which can lead to new paid subscribers.

Your comments are most welcome and appreciated and can be given in the Comments section below.

I sincerely thank you for your time and support.

In Peace & Liberty,
