*WASHINGTON — *The House passed a measure Thursday aimed at limiting
President Donald Trump’s ability to take military action against Iran.


A mob harassed you?  Or do you mean ads?

Information which is privy to the legitimate state is appropriated and used
in non legitimate ways.  There is legitimate system (the one operated by
people sitting on chairs and making open debates, agreeing on laws etc)
then there is an illegitimate (thug) system which does the contrary of what
the legitimate system says, but then hides the evidence, So ultimately the
evidence is fabricated or manipulated to show that  the democratic process
is in place, but happens on the floor is much different. Just the data and
documentation are used/maniupated in such a way that it shows everything
was done by the book.  I ve been studying this for decades, now I have got
the model
working :-)

Regarding the ITV journalist who was taken down the moment his report
swayed from the BBC democratic regime version of the facts. was executed by
a military platoon
The official line is that there was confusion and he was killed as the
result of a complex situtation, but the reality is that he was executed by
a professional gunman, who does not respond to the legal system, who was
just executing orders who is paid for by taxpayers money, who think the
country is run by a democratic institution and by really nice people
sitting in congress. This is unfortunately not the case.

My problem with these general, ambiguous references is that not being

I was pointing to the dichotomy between what we perceive is the real world
(that the US is a democratic country) and the possibility that the US is
country run by thugs who operate outside the legal system and are really
good at fobbing everyone off. The US is also managing to keep Julian
Assange in prison in the UK< although he has not broken any UK laws, and
has committed no crime. This deviated system of outlaws uses the law (the
judicial system in the case of Assange) to do illegal things.  Julian is
being held in prison against the UK law which is specially designed to
guarantee individual freedoms. Isnt this totally perverse?
Thats is as specific as I can get.

controlled and restrained by regimes, or social norms,  or by the thugs who
fob everyone off with their miserable lies and misrepresentation of the
facts-

but as individuals can we live by our values? I believe that if each of us
can implement a value system in their lives, maybe the overall collective
responsible consciousness can emerge strong enough to counter the lack of
honesty of political institutions

What’s needed is a new political structure that allows citizens to organize

really great to see, I hope that
Assuming that what you have created work, or that other new models of
governance may work. it is only when people reach the same level of
consciousness as yours that they may seek to adopt or contribute to the
evolution of the model.
The problem for me lies with the consciousness

Yes, but until we as individuals remain 'deluded' or our knowledge, speech
is imperfect and limited,  we ll continue to struggle against our limited
cognition
I d say that until we continue to have the same problems throughout history
because we never cracked our own limitations/obscurations as individuals

we have governments, we have laws, we have law enforcement agencies
what happens when government and law enforcement agencies
operate illegally (pursuing illegal goals using illegal means)  by
perverting the course of justice?  This is the case here, I am afraid

It's like the folks who will come and rob you, beat you up, then go to the
police to tell that you robbed them, then the police arrests you, you are
jailed fined and scarred for life while the newspapers will tell the story
of how the thug is the hero. and everyone believes what is in the
newspapers, right?
This is the case here.
