Part 1

Today Mariana Mazzucato tweeted that she signed a letter demanding a global vaccination campaign.

In case people don’t know Mazzucato, she’s one of the economists working to reset the global economy.

I highly recommend her books. google.ca/search?q=Maria…

Instantly there was a comment from what seems to be American (North Dakota) Indigenous Twitter. (NDN is a common acronym for “Indian” in Canadian and American Indigenous Twitter)

“ndndn” is an active spreader of disinformation promoting natural immunity. An anti vax narrative.

One might get the impression that this account is left wing by reviewing the accounts it follows; prominent centrist and progressive academics.

But then you see FEE and a number of retweets of FEE information.

FEE is the acronym for the Foundation for Economic Education.

FEE is a far right Dominionist movement front organization primarily concerned with the indoctrination of youth across North America with far right Austrian Economics, Christian beliefs and Paleolibertarian values.

FEE is associated with some of the GOP Republican’s top academic influencers and propagandists. That includes a few Canadians & a well known Canadian far right think tank.

Fraser Institute is training teachers & school aged children in “free market” economics across Canada.

If you review the Alberta New Curriculum, financial management will be included grades 7-12. This is where the financial management curriculum originated. From an American academic associated with FEE in conjunction with Fraser Institute.

It’s indoctrination. Not a curriculum.

Upon further observation it becomes apparent that “ndndn” is an active anti vax far right saboteur.

But this account is aiming its disinformation at the left. Wherever it can sow doubt.

This is where disinformation on both sides of the political spectrum is originating.

I don’t mean this one account. But in crossover accounts like this one. Accounts that operate on both ends of the political spectrum. Spreading disinformation indiscriminately.

Here are a couple followers of this account. I’ve seen both quoted & retweeted by Canadian accounts.

There is crossover propaganda occurring. The far right is influencing the progressive left, especially targeting indigenous communities.

Socialist Anarchists & far right libertarians share many beliefs & values. The most obvious being their affinity for rugged individualism.

Another being their disdain for federal governance. Libertarians feel constrained by legitimate federal authority. They want it eradicated. Which is the definition of anarchy.

So why does this matter? Why have I assembled these data points?

This is why.

This is one of the conservatives campaign strategies.

Target left libertarians with propaganda that enrages them about LPC scandals & policy.

Then recommend casting a vote for conservatives.

For the sake of the confederation of course. 🙄

That’s why “progressives” and conservatives keep repeating talking points or sound like they’re reading from the same page.

They are.

Progressives who have been radicalized tend to be left libertarian and socialist.

By equalizing everyone (taxing only wealthy), left libertarians believe “natural” leaders will emerge and worker groups will voluntarily unite to run proletariat run businesses.🙄

What can I say, they believe in utopia. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Anarchists are the reason Occupy Wall Street failed.

My point is, there isn’t much difference between a left and a right libertarian. Their objectives are the same regarding moderates and centrists. Eliminate them. Using whatever means.

Moderates appreciate legitimate authority, legislation and regulations.

Libertarians want no rules. A free society.

Voluntaryism.

Not to be confused with Voluntarism.

The far right has been indoctrinating the progressive left with libertarian socialist dogma.

Rejecting legitimate authority. Sound familiar?

Demands (not requests) for policy changes; literally defund the police; UBI; Proportional Representation; “he bought a pipeline;” climate change failures; WE Charity; JWR~SNC; safe drinking water; suing FN children, burning churches; MMIWG; Residential schools.

Those are some of the issues that contain partial truths blended with propaganda.

Most of those issues involve the indigenous community.

The accusations and smears come from both ends of the political spectrum.

It took me a while to figure out how the far right had compromised indigenous communities and convinced them to adopt libertarian beliefs. But I found it.

Left libertarianism. Individualist libertarianism.

Libertarian beliefs are anathema to traditional indigenous beliefs.

I grew up in a traditional community. Surrounded by people who espoused indigenous Métis beliefs, values and behaviours. Not one of them was libertarian. I have First Nations family. None of them were either.

I knew the moment Wetʼsuwetʼen issue emerged in 2019. Something’s up.

The far right is predictable, not very imaginative and fuelled by one thing; avarice.

When Harper was in power, he tried to remove Treaty Rights from First Nations. The modern treaty he signed with a BC First Nation assigns property rights to individuals within the community.

That means a band member can sell property they own within reserve territory. Permanently extinguishing claim to land title for every FN & any of the resources in the band’s territory. FN have communal not personal property rights. No one person owns the land. Every member does.

So who benefits?
China.

The China Canada FIPA gives asymmetrical power to Chinese nationals.

Why are we building a pipeline to the coast? So we can sell oil sands to China and other Asian buyers (India, Indonesia, Malaysia, etc). Lots of oil sands. Unmitigated development.

But what would that require in Canada?

It requires bypassing the Canadian Court system that First Nations and environmentalists petition for legal rulings to stop or limit unmitigated resource development.

Harper’s modern treaties fit the bill.

When First Nations cede territory permanently, there would be no court filings delaying projects and preventing pipelines. It would be free sailing with barely a hiccup. There would be protesters, but police have been redirected to protect property rights, not peace & safety.

Harper had plans for KXL, Kitimat, Eastern expansion, & there was talk of exploring the Canadian North for fossil fuel development. Every one of those projects had plans to access foreign investment. Including China foreign investment.
