It's all clowns all the way down, isn't it?
Yep.
It’s going to get better as soon as the media landscape improves, though.
. . . aaaaaany minute now . . .
I wonder which comes first.
That.
Or.
The wealth starts to trickle down.
It's going to take a collapse of the United States to reset the cycle, and it's coming quickly.
Or could just release all the emancipatory technologies... reset back to the start of the suppression, availing all the good stuff we've been denied since?
“We already have the means to travel among the stars, but these technologies are locked up in black projects and it would take an act of God to ever get them out to benefit humanity… anything you can imagine we already know how to do.” — Ben Rich, former Head of the Lockheed Skunk Works
“It is easier for us to pay a private contractor to re-invent something so it will come out at a lower classification level, than to try to declassify it.” – Bennett Hart, then Deputy Director of the National Reconnaissance Organization
... As patent office whistle-blower Tom Valone mentioned at free energy conferences in the early [20]00s, there had already been over 3000 free energy device patents, secreted, by the year 2000.
We have so much headroom without the crooks who would destroy it all to hide their crimes of depriving us to maintain their power over us.
... No need for the act of god that Ben Rich mentioned... easier to pay private contractor to "re-invent", as Bennett Hart said... and easier ways yet if we just radically sublimate, radically provision...
VERY quickly.
