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.

What happened to society that people feel justified to spit on the dead and put their feelings of hatred and shameless self gratification before those who are grieving?

Is Gen X the last generation taught manners?

Honestly! Libertarianism is a cancer in society.
Your rage at Senator Lindsay Graham is irrelevant. It’s your burden. Not the burden of his surviving family and friends who are grieving.

It’s customary to offer condolences to surviving family and friends of someone who recently died.
The grieving are under no obligation to acknowledge your rage and disgust.

What idiot started the rumour that expressing your rage, hate and disgust for a dead human being is appropriate before he’s buried?

Are you a human being or not?

@SoMersVick @saucyseawitch Spirituality is not a religion, but it connects us to the bigger picture.

As social animals, it’s in our nature to be part of a whole community and function as a valued member of a diverse group. It’s why evolution selected us for survival: our propensity for interdependence.
@SoMersVick @saucyseawitch But interdependence is also a vulnerability when too many of a community are removed by war, pestilence or climate changes.

The more advanced a society is, the more specialized its members are for the survival of society. Remove too many and society collapses.
@SoMersVick @saucyseawitch When society collapses, the worst of humanity emerges. Like Trump, his father before him and thousands of other wealthy merchant class opportunists.

When regulated, through laws and enforcement, capitalism created huge advantages for human beings.

New thread 🧵

Canada is on a defined path.

If you haven’t recognized it yet, you should soon.

PM Carney isn’t appeasing Trump. He’s buying time. While PP & CPC religious nut minions & libertarian avarice mongers undermine LPC at every turn.

We are preparing for war people.
I don’t kid about this. It’s not an educated guess. I’m not hyperbolizing.

This is real.

Perhaps Canadians don’t understand what a key role Canada played in the WW2 supply chain for war materials.

There’s a reason Trump wants control of Canadian natural resources.
Canada has what the world wants.

We develop what the world needs for weapons, food, clean water, educated workforce, and we are stable, having never fought a formal war on Canadian soil since war of 1812.

While Métis rebelled in 1870 & 1885, that was a rebellion, not war.

I’ve been asking people to reconsider their adversarial approach to this situation for years. These pleas occasionally get a like, but the public has not shifted its behaviour.

I sometimes feel powerless to impact others, but then I realize I’m up against military grade PSYOPS.
I understand the mechanism of this PSYOPS. I’ve described it in detail, to no avail. People still resort to stereotypical defence tactics when they perceive themselves under attack.

And we are under attack. It’s been relentless since 2015. So this is engrained behaviour now.
It’s like a reflex arc. Or a Pavlovian response. But it gives me hope that others can see the aggravated nature of continuing this behaviour arc. It will continue the process of dividing us more and more until reconciliation is impossible. Like it is in the US right now.

This is what I am talking about John. Smith is attempting to circumvent treaty obligations. Legitimizing separatists’ binding referendum through trickery.

This is how indigenous people have lost land, rights, freedoms and dignity in the past.
Governments just run roughshod over indigenous rights and a small elite group of individuals benefit.

This is exactly why indigenous people don’t trust government. Because so many with malignant intent use the legitimate authority of govt to perform illegitimate acts.
If a referendum is held in October, those stolen voter profiles will be used to reject Canadian federation? Which will lead to a binding referendum being scheduled, and all investment in Canada to dwindle and an economy that’s contracted to recession or depression levels?

This is the big issue the public must recognize.

Alberta is not getting out of this situation without it becoming extremely uncomfortable & awkward. Because our opportunity to do this the calmly & without a fight ended May 30, 2023.

So stop searching for the easy path.
There are no options before us that include easy, cakewalk, simple or nice.

If you’re a polite person who has trouble with conflict, you’re going to be uncomfortable.

There are no two ways about it! You will feel uncomfortable and want to run & hide.

But that’s not an option.
It is Canadian democracy’s survival at stake. It’s under existential threat and unless we remove this regime because they are deeply corrupt, we will lose our democracy, our country, our constitution, our human rights.

I’m not sugar coating the problem or required solution.
