And this is why us Brits voted to leave the EU… not realising our own government was equally as corrupted. 2016 opened our eyes to a lot!

Indeed. I blame Tony Blair too; he was warned not to get involved with Afghanistan and Iraq, warned that fighting men would invade his country. It’s happening right before our eyes.

A very good read Erik and very informative about this situation.

Just be aware that Rumble is currently banned in France and has been for a long time. The only way I can see Badlands is because I come in and out of France regularly and have the Rumble App. You cannot download the app when you are actually in France nor copy across a video or article to watch on a search platform.

The lengths they will go to suppress truth. I suppose VPNs could come into play at some point.

"People get ready, there's a train a comin'

You don't need no baggage, you just get on board

All you need is faith, to hear the diesels hummin'

Don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord

So people get ready, for the train to Jordan

Picking up passengers coast to coast

Faith is the key, open the doors and board 'em

There's hope for all, among those loved the most

There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner

Whom would hurt all mankind, just to save his own, believe me now

Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner

For there is no hiding place, against the kingdom's throne

So people get ready there's a train a comin'

You don't need no baggage, you just get on board

All you need is faith, to hear the diesels hummin'

Don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord"

Thanks Erik! I didn’t know much about the ADL so i found this on their site:

ADL is the leading anti-hate organization in the world. Founded in 1913, its timeless mission is “to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all.” Today, ADL continues to fight all forms of antisemitism and bias, using innovation and partnerships to drive impact. A global leader in combating antisemitism, countering extremism and battling bigotry wherever and whenever it happens, ADL works to protect democracy and ensure a just and inclusive society for all.

1913??? What a coincidence 😉

God bless!

When the obfuscation of a religion is complete and you know the kind of evil you will create such as The Fed, it is genius to also make a social overseer to ensure anyone who starts calling you out is debunked as an antisemite. Fiction writers got nothin on the truth 😉

Thank you for an interesting read, Erik.

Time will tell…which makes this movie unbelievably important…actually to both sides. One thing is absolutely certain, the Marxists - called Progressives in this country for over a century now - can not tolerate independent, free thinkers who have evolved beyond their control of warped educational standards of control. What a formidable enemy we have become! They HAVE TO censor that however they can. Too late, in my opinion 😉❤️🇺🇸🌎

>>Truth Social was in the works since at least 11/18/2011, five years before Trump became POTUS.

If this is true, what does that say about the dev team? Subpar, or deliberately constrained? Functionality and UI is limited (to put it charitably) and if it really has been "in the works" for that long, you'd think there would be a lot more meat on the bones by now. Let's hope they have parallel, fully realized version of the code base under development that we just haven't seen yet...

The Deep State has been holding up the DWAC/Trump merger for two years which means Truth Social and Trump don’t have access to the money. It has been unprecedented. Once TS gets the money they can make improvements. Truth Social is obviously seen as a threat for the Deep State to risk so much to suppress it.

Shareholders just approved a one-year extension to the investment window (DWAC is a SPAC and thus bound by a bunch of special rules). DS thought the investors, mostly smaller retail (and conservative) investors, were too stupid to figure this out. Yet another unforced error -- Trump certainly does have a way of goading people into stupid moves.

Also remember that much of what we now consider 'social media' was developed by CIA, NSA, FBI etc. and then 'seeded' to 'commercial' firms. They knew that platforms like this would develop organically and decided to get ahead of the curve, to keep control.

It's amazing what you can do, given unlimited federal funding.

Hi Free Human ! 🙋‍♂️🇫🇷

I read a lot of months ago a very technical story about a large part of the whole IPv4 adresses index which had been sold by the Pentagon to an obscure firm just at the time of the transition of power.

I think it could become a useful and powerful tool to avoid a full blackout OR to angle and take out very BIG predators (or dark / censoring actors) ...

Only time (AND the timing of events) will tell us !

Hi Free Human 🙋🏼‍♂️🇫🇷

I've read your link twice before commenting back here.

I used Deepl to help me better articulate this complex answer:

As they explain it, it looks like a pretty trompe-l'oeil facade in plain sight.

If behind that pretty facade lies something as accomplished as some form of artificial intelligence, or powerful quantum computers, it might as well ALSO provide the infrastructure functions of an alternative AND SOVEREIGN "Internet" to enable sovereign nations (who said anything about Sovereign Alliance??) to function in the event of a blackout of the DARPA-created World Wide Web.) to function in the event of a DARPA-created World Wide Web blackout, and if you add to this the capabilities provided by Elon Musk via Starlink and SpaceX and his Neuralink research, this pretty "bourgeois" facade could well conceal an overwhelming power.

I just hope it is managed by Good Guys, even if some could come from Russia, China, India, Israel or maybe North Korea !!

Trumpist,

As many of us know, we are in 5GW. All warfare has, for centuries, involved propaganda.

Propaganda is calculated to confuse the enemy or to throw the enemy off in what the side using the propagnda's capabilities are.

We know there are good guys and bad guys. Question is; which will end up in control, good or bad?

I believe that the tactics of the good guys comes much closer to showing both an understanding of the best use of propaganda and the efforts by the bad guys to down play the capabilities of the good guys and up play their capabilities is a very potential harbinger of ultimate failure on the part of the bad guys.

Time will tell but if I was a betting man, my bet would go with the good guys.(i.e. Truth social, star link, et al and not with DARPA and the man whose prime accomplishment is eating ice cream cones).

There are so many shades of grey involved, and the deep state, the military and the cabal all love "stacking functions", so I think there are multiple levels of functionality being enabled. I don't think there are any "truly white" hats out there anymore, so who knows which functions will get activated. Musk tries to make the public think his hat is "very light grey", but I am not buying it. He will play both sides until he sees another opportunity to further consolidate power. Isn't that his ultimate intention for "X" anyway - the "one ring" to rule all transactions, even the ones performed at a neuronal level in people's brains? He's a trans-humanist too (from a line of them) even though he sometimes says he has great fears about AI. I think he's fine with it, as long as he's got a firm hold on the power plug :) We're just spectators, and likely collateral damage at this point, until enough major upsets take place in the current power structures to give ordinary people a window of opportunity to take some scalps. Unfortunately it won't be from those at the very top - they are too hidden. And they're probably all 98 and bald anyways :)

The perfect timing of every step made along this story makes me think about Space Force (and why not Elon Musk's StarLink ?).

That had been prepared a very long time ago and has been realized swiftly and stealthily like a much covert operation !

Excellent assessment of the powers that be as they continue to ramp up their totalitarian tightening of individual freedoms as more awaken to the truth being exposed daily; it’s accelerating and escalating and the cabal is becoming increasingly more dangerous and more public in their intents. Truth Social and Rumble didn’t exist when the clamps were tightened; now millions more are seeing the truth as totalitarianism reaches our own backyards. Millions will not comply with the new plandemic rules and whatever else the cabal deploys, and likely millions will abandon X if Musk bows to EU control after exposing the US 3-letter government’s banning here. Time will surely tell and likely sooner than later.

God bless you, Erik.🙏

Great piece. This is precisely why the new word 'malinformation' was created (newspeak). The controlling entities had to acknowledge the content they contested was factual (true), but as it ran counter to the official state narrative and agenda, it therefore still had to be shut down, on the basis that it harmed the public good. 1984.

I don't get it... I don't do Twitter or X what ever you call it. I'm not a fan of Truth Social! I think you restrict communications by limiting characters. Less than 500 some questions can't even be set up with that few characters. So you limit the deep conversations on the real questions that require a good background set up to ask the question. If I was Musk, I'd tell EU to pound sand and if they wanted X or Twitter in their countries they would allow free speech. Yes I've been shadow banned on Facecrack. I never really bought into their DARPA Life Log information stealing and building backgrounds on everyone. My personal exposure is very limited. Yes my info is out there for those who want to do the digging. Most won't reach beyond the first page of items on a search engine. Any real researcher knows that most of the stuff on the first page of a search engine is the propaganda the Lame stream media wants you to know and not the things you really need to know. Great article Helps me understand Twitter a bit having never been on the site.... Peace...

Maybe if influence Truthers weren’t so resistant to Truth Social a lot more could be done waking up the normies! It seems they don't want to let go of hanging around the "Cool Kids" at X. Pretty pathetic. Maybe the left that you all drool over on X, you could bring over to TRUTH Social. If you all leave then X will be THEIR echo chamber. All I ever hear are the Truthers whine about X hoping it will "get right". Like I said , PATHETIC!
