It seems that no one has yet stepped forward to re-educate Jordan B. Peterson.1 That’s not to say it won’t happen in time, because the Ontario Court of Appeal and then later, the Supreme Court of Canada (August 8, 2024) both endorsed mandatory re-education in Canada. Such is truly beyond comprehension! That’s the bad news — how far our “authorities” have fallen into authoritarianism.
But the good news is: It seems that fear of negative publicity, blow-back, or shame has kept the re-ed “experts” from surfacing. We may be at a tipping point between tyranny and liberty, but we have not yet fully tipped. Mandatory re-ed has been endorsed, but is not yet widespread. So let us remember the warning of John Basil Barnhill, the “noted anti-socialist writer, editor, politician, and debater during the first quarter of the 20th century.”2
"Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty."
And what is it “authorities” should fear? They should fear choosing reward over integrity; ideology over truth; corruption / coercion over honesty; ego over selfless service. They should fear exposure and consequence.
The good news also is: We Canadians are still free enough to give the “authorities” a little of their own re-ed medicine — not mandatory, but by invitation.3 Write, speak, suggest, blog about liberty, rights, freedoms, and history. Be grateful for the good “authorities” sometimes do, but forever expose and penalize the evil.
If we are to save Canada, those authorities who have been captured by the motivations of Reward, Ideology, Corruption / Coercion, or Ego must be brought to justice and consequence.
Jen Johnson, (former Alberta UCP candidate and now independent) MLA for Lacombe / Ponoka made an unfortunate analogy that was ginned up and cost her her UCP affiliation, but not her election. At the request of some of her constituents, she met with a transgender collective that she had allegedly offended. Here is the coverage by Rebel News of Jen’s meeting with one identifying as “Victoria”:
Here is my message to Jen (et al.), whom I have never met; who handled herself admirably in the face of Cluster B* manifestation:
Jen, take courage. This tyranny of self-appointed, radical trans/queer-voices cannot prevail if courageous people “live not by lies.”1 I’m sorry you had to endure this attempted Mao-style “struggle / denounce / reform” session, but you did not cave. And on the bright side, this “meeting” with diva/divo activists exposed the Cluster B traits that define so many of them. The futility of consulting with such activists could not have been more clear.
On the other hand, many dysphorics reject the tyranny of the radical activists who have “taken over and ruined everything.” Activists like “Victoria” (aka stage name, Karla Marx) do not represent the greater transgender community which does not demand that others parrot their narrative. What we did observe in your encounter was how despotic some activists can be as they tolerate nothing but affirmation of “self” and subjection of others. We could also see where our society is inexorably headed if we cater to reality-inverting ideologues. In the words of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, who knew the realities of the real Karl Marx:
[T]he simple step of a simple courageous man [or woman] is not to partake in falsehood, not to support false actions! Let that enter the world, let it even reign in the world—but not with my help.2
This year 2024 marks the 50th anniversary of Solzhenitsyn's publication of a parting plea to his countrymen and women: “Live Not By Lies.” It should be read in full with its nine bullet points every Saturday and Sunday AM on CBC.
Here is just a portion of the Live Not By Lies text:
[I]t is not every day and not on every shoulder that violence [including violence against truth/reality] brings down its heavy hand: it demands of us only a submission to lies, a daily participation in deceit—and this suffices as our fealty.
And therein we find, neglected by us, the simplest, the most accessible key to our liberation: a personal nonparticipation in lies! Even if all is covered by lies, even if all is under their rule, let us resist in the smallest way: Let their rule hold not through me!
And this is the way to break out of the imaginary encirclement of our inertness, the easiest way for us and the most devastating for the lies. For when people renounce lies, lies simply cease to exist. Like parasites, they can only survive when attached to a person.
We are not called upon to step out onto the square and shout out the truth, to say out loud what we think—this is scary, we are not ready. But let us at least refuse to say what we do not think!
This is the way, then, the easiest and most accessible for us given our deep-seated organic cowardice, much easier than (it’s scary even to utter the words) civil disobedience à la Gandhi.
Our way must be: Never knowingly support lies! Having understood where the lies begin (and many see this line differently)—step back from that gangrenous edge! Let us not glue back the flaking scales of the Ideology, not gather back its crumbling bones, nor patch together its decomposing garb, and we will be amazed how swiftly and helplessly the lies will fall away, and that which is destined to be naked will be exposed as such to the world.
And thus, overcoming our timidity, let each man choose: Will he remain a witting servant of the lies (needless to say, not due to natural predisposition, but in order to provide a living for the family, to rear the children in the spirit of lies!), or has the time come for him to stand straight as an honest man, worthy of the respect of his children and contemporaries?
After Skool Understanding the Temptation to Tyranny
Since we seem to be infected with a plague of mini- to maxi-tyrants in recent years, here is a short test for self-assessing Tyrannical Traits. A score of one or more is sufficient evidence that one cannot be trusted with power, local or higher. However, there are voluntary awareness and / or re-education courses available, some of the best being sketched out for rapid comprehension. If you score one or more on the test, you qualify for the free After Skool video found below the test:
□ Do you think health concerns warrant suspension of human rights?
□ Did you yell (or sneer, etc.) at someone for not wearing a mask?
□ Did you yell (or sneer, etc.) at someone for wearing a mask?
□ Did you snitch (or want to) on anyone for “mandate” malfeasance?
□ Do (or did) you support lockdowns, floor arrows, boundary tape, and plexi-glass profits?
□ Do the unvaccinated make you angry or homicidal?
□ Have you ever entered onto someone's private property without permission to protest a cause?
□ Do you think you or anyone should be able to tell people what pronouns, names, or words they are permitted to use and when?
□ Do you demand that people think what you think about race, gender, politics, social justice, climate, etc.?
□ Do you want to censor others who don't believe the narrative that you believe?
If you scored one or higher, this After Skool is for you:
On April 25, 2022, the Government of Canada established the Public Order Emergency Commission to inquire into the circumstances that led to the declaration of emergency that was in place from February 14-23, 2022, and the measures taken for dealing with the emergency. Justice Paul Rouleau was appointed Commissioner.[https://publicorderemergencycommission.ca/]
It has been shocking and distressing to see how cavalierly leaders of this nation have treated rights and freedoms guaranteed in our Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms AND our Bill of Rights1; shocking and distressing to witness how leaders so swiftly resorted to escalated power abuse, twisting facts-on-the-ground, and refusing to meet with Canadians peacefully protesting tyrannical rules and mandates — rules and mandates that egregiously violated, not only our Charter and Bill of Rights, but
▪ the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights2
▪ the Nuremberg Code and Principles 3
▪ foundational Common Law4
▪ The Declaration of Helsinki5
▪ the service oaths of civil servants and law enforcement,6
▪ the Emergencies Act itself7
▪ plus other provincial and federal legislation.
In addition, it has been especially shocking and distressing to witness the targeting, maligning, and oppression of flag-bearing Canadians on the pretexts of “emergency,” “safety,” and alleged concern for international confidence and reputation when it was the unjustified “emergency” actions of the Canadian government that provoked massive non-confidence in the integrity of government and the Canadian banking system.
I donated a small amount8 to the Freedom Convoy and was stunned by the fabrications put forth to “justify” freezing bank accounts. My account was not frozen, but others were. The extent that the government was prepared to go to quash and malign honest, peaceful dissent was alarming. I had flashbacks to scenes from Sinclair Lewis', It Can't Happen Here.9 The willingness of law enforcement to carry out unlawful orders with excessive force was also distressing. Who are we? Have our protectors become our oppressors? Will the coercion and intimidation ever end? Will our mobility rights be forever compromised despite our passport assurance of the right:
“to pass freely without delay or hindrance and [that officials are directed] to afford the bearer such assistance and protection as may be necessary”?
After witnessing the past two plus years of power abuse, capped by the “Emergencies Act,” my confidence in the integrity of government, public health, main-stream media, and law enforcement is gone. We seem to have transformed into a bully culture addicted to surveillance, coercion, intimidation, snitching, hypocrisy, blind obedience, and to the pursuit of collective control of thought, association, assembly, mobility, speech, and so forth. We have become a nation pretending to have rights and freedoms — pretending because they can be constrained or stripped away in an instant (as we have witnessed) to punish questioners of government narratives and to augment unlawful power. The concern of “what next” is now an ever-present undercurrent of daily life. With the divisive and inflammatory language of the Emergencies Act actors and supporters, what is to prevent a new Kristallnacht, except absolute condemnation and severe consequence?
I ask this Commission to investigate the possible treasonous conflict of interest of PM Trudeau and DPM Freeland as it relates to the declaration of the Emergencies Act. Where did the directive to invoke the Emergencies Act come from? Was there foreign influence? advisement? coercion? Will this Commission ask the questions that others seem afraid to ask despite clear evidence of:
1) the enthusiastic, public statement by a foreign actor that Canada's cabinet was “penetrated” with graduates (“more than half” including PM Trudeau and DPM Freeland) of a global leadership program10 with a published agenda11 that conflicts with the interests, rights and freedoms of sovereign Canadians?
2) Deputy PM Freeland's appointment as a trustee of the World Economic Forum12 where she is obligated to serve “as the guardian of the World Economic Forum’s mission and values”[?]
As you fulfill your Commission duties, please remember this historical and poli-sci truth:
“We will never understand the events of our time until we acknowledge that the obsessive pursuit and protection of power, gain, glory, and domination has plagued every age of history.”
● James Coates Is Free but Now the Whole Church Is In Jail | Guest: Pastor James Coates | Ep 401 (Allie Beth Stuckey | April 12, 2021 | Time 40:19) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_Ru5heq0gA
Dear Reverend Greg, et al.:
Until we acknowledge that the obsessive pursuit and protection of power, gain, and glory has plagued every age of history, we will never understand the events of our time. -sms
So, dear Reverend Greg, the essential difference between you and the resisters at GraceLife (and others) is that you (apparently) believe in the narrative of “the powers,” whereas resisters do not believe in that power narrative, just as Jesus didn't believe in the power narrative of His day — a power narrative where public servants convert themselves into masters and enforcers. Consider how many times Jesus was told: “It is not lawful ...”? Yet what did He do?
But this is different, you might say: “There is a devastating, novel virus.” EXCEPT, do you not know that long ago, the powers recognized the power potential of disease to achieve control agendas? (Remember the small-pox blankets?) Do you have any idea how many secret bio-experiments* have been done on uninformed people worldwide in the last 80 plus years? Have you done any research into the decades of multi-national, gain-of-function research? (Look it up.)
And if “conspiracy theory” is your knee-jerk reaction, you have fallen for the great psy-op that has buried more truth and hidden (sanctioned) more crime and cruelty than any of us can imagine. SO, whom should we believe? those pursuing and protecting power, gain, and glory? OR independent investigators, whistle-blowers, and truth-tellers who risk everything in speaking out?
Just search your scriptures for the word “conspiracy” and its derivatives. Or re-read about Daniel and the Lions' Den, or Korah et al., or Balak & Balaam, or the Hivite league, or Haman in the book of Esther, or Ananias & Sapphira, etc., etc. What is history if not repeating, recycling conspiracies of powers competing for [gain or] supreme power?
Yes, there are people sick or dying, but many resisters of tyranny believe in Revelation 2:9 — that we are in an age of “lying wonders,” the like of which the world has never seen, aided by a technology and a bio-weapon industry devised and designed for total control. Many know that the power paradigm that killed Jesus and most of His Apostles, plus tens of thousands of His disciples in every age, even to this very day, is working feverishly to finally achieve what has been sought for millennia — the destruction of freedom and of man as created by Almighty God. Your voice is helping sustain the same Domination System (this time under cover of COVID) that has burdened the world in every age and created divisions between people who should be standing together to further God's work and honor His gifts of inalienable rights and freedoms.
So, yes, some people are sick and some dying, as they always have and will, but case and death counts can be easily manipulated and perpetuated through reported (exacerbated?) waves and variants via a compliant, complicit MSM and sometimes deceived (sometimes compromised) officials. This is not a question of whether we should love and protect our neighbor by blind obedience to inhuman mandates, bullying, and isolations. It is a question of whether we will awaken to the reality of power pursuit and abuse — whether we will love and protect our neighbor by working to expose and prosecute the powers and their agents perpetuating and benefiting from disease, fear, and blind obedience.
Investigate the COVID deaths in your congregation (or personal knowledge) compared to deaths in prior years. Do COVID deaths deserve more coverage, care, and compassion than other deaths like cancer, heart attack, influenza, suicide, overdose, accident, medical/pharma mistakes, etc.? What are the (malleable) “test cycle thresholds” that “justify” COVID case and death counts / reports**? So once again Whom should we believe? The powers pursuing and protecting more power, gain, glory, and control? or the whistle-blowers and truth-seekers*** who risk everything in pursuit and exposure of what is real?
Resisters to oppressive, censoring power see the deliberate fomenting of division; the destruction of peoples' lives, hopes, dreams, families, and livelihoods; the disparagement of rights and of rights' advocates; the bullying and intimidation by enforcers; and the obsessive pursuit of total control of people and their property to be but a repeat of numerous attempts in the past as documented in history and prophesied in scripture. Remember Ephesians 6:12? John's Revelation?
This COVID scenario is a made-in-hell, nigh perfect scenario to perpetuate fear, deception, blind obedience, and distrust in everything and everyone except the advocates of the narrative — the promising saviors.
So please, do not be a blind guide to your parishioners or the public. Study the science and history of power abuse, mind control, the 1960s Stanley Milgram Experiments, psychological warfare, the bio-weapon industry, and the adversary's agenda throughout history. Being led astray and deceived is why a persistent Gospel message is: repent, repent, repent. Trust in the Good Shepherd. Do not trust in the arm of flesh. Do not sanction power abuse.
The powers and the crowd have almost never been a safe escort.
Sincerely,
SMSmith

▪ PCR Testing Saga: Were We Duped? Were federal health officials and experts at WHO really unaware that the recommended high cycle count (CT) for PCR tests would produce an exorbitant number of false positives for COVID? by Dr. Joseph Mercola (Childrens' Health Defense | Feb. 23, 2021) https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/pcr-testing-incorrect-use/?utm_source=salsa&eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=b2c12bbb-ac81-4cb4-9987-6f4bd15c26f0
PCR Cycle Thresholds: (Bold emphasis added.)
“The FDA has given lab manufacturers a wide latitude in determining the cycle threshold cut-off number of their qualitative tests to determine positive versus negative. These tests were approved under Emergency Use Authorization and have not been subjected to typical FDA scrutiny. With this in mind, the state of Florida has required all laboratories doing COVID testing to report the cycle threshold numbers used in qualitative and quantitative tests.
“So how does a qualitative RT-PCR test work? Basically, the manufacturer sets the test to turn off the cycling or amplification process when a certain number is hit. For a qualitative test set at 40, after 40 amplification cycles, if any viral material is detected, it turns off and is reported as positive. If none is detected, it would be reported as negative. If the number of amplification cycles was really 15 or 25, it would still run until it gets to 40 and be reported as positive.
“With these type of tests, it's critical to use an agreed-upon cycle threshold value such as 33 (CDC) or 35 (Dr. Fauci) rather than setting it at a potentially misleading 40 or 45. Many of the current tests in use are preset by the manufacturer to these higher numbers.
“The World Health Organization issued a notice last week telling the labs "the cut-off should be manually adjusted to ensure that specimens with high Ct values are not incorrectly assigned SARS-CoV-2 detected due to background noise." Could this be a reason why many people test positive but remain asymptomatic? In that same memo, WHO said all labs should report the cycle threshold value to treating physicians.” at https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/covid19/90508
Perhaps 2020 will be remembered forever as the in-your-face unveiling of the Bully Culture. When have we ever read so many headlines or seen so many videos:
● of excessive force by “security” and police1 against mothers, seniors, bloggers, beach-strollers, bench-sitters, coffee clients, park-playing moms 'n dads, BQ bravehearts, investigative reporters, and on and on? [Be aware, however, of what appears to be some acts of excessive force staged and posted online to support defunding and hate-the-police agendas.]
● of crowds of intimidating enforcers flocking a family's doorway in nigh-riot gear, then careening up stairways with guns drawn to burst in upon terrified (dangerous?) children? ● of (deceived? terrified?) believers demanding that more distancing, isolation, quarantine, stay-at-home, masking, lockout, lockdown, border closures, etc., etc. be imposed upon others?
● of airline thuggery and of check-stops checking for cohort and good Samaritan2 infractions?
● of threats for mandatory vaccinations and deeper controls if non-flocking “rams” don't religiously sheepify to the new normal? the new god? to pscience?3
● of politicians encouraging rat-line reporting?
● and on and on.
So what can we do to prepare for all the bullies and budding bullies of this allegedly new normal culture? What if an enforcer4 comes to your door or check-stops you for some COVID infraction and begins to act like a bully.
The following TIPS may work sometimes, and other times not, depending on the power-complex of the confronting enforcer(s). The suggestion is to engage enforcers in calm, civil inquiry while handing them a Notice of Liability. You can even use the expression: “This is to keep you safe and to keep me safe.” or “This is to help you honor your oath to uphold rights and freedoms and to avoid trespass.”
PDF: Notice of Liability ~ Trespass
Considering the rapid escalation of bullying, it may help to have a large “No Trespassing” sign already posted on your home or business doorway along with the above PDF “Notice of Liability” for advance reading by enforcers, Printout several copies of the PDF using one 8 1/2” x 11” printout with the NT sign. Other PDF copies (printed front and back and cut-in-half) can be used to hand-out to each enforcer who shows up. Remember to insert the date and adjust trespass fines, if desired. Or you can use the “Notice: Liability” found here5 at Christopher James' site: A Warrior Calls
TIPS when encountering enforcers:
▪ Record the entire encounter (visual and audio) if you can, advising of such.
▪ Have several informed, but silent, non-interfering witnesses present, if possible.
▪ Be civil and express understanding (if appropriate) of the dilemma that many enforcers face when forced to choose between honoring their conscience and service oath and retaining their jobs.
▪ Know your stuff [PDF: Common Law | Essential Facts | 1.2.3.(4.) requirements] well enough to repeat, repeat, question, question, assert, assert as needed.
▪ Request to see, retain, copy, or photo all documents, warrants, ID cards, badges, etc.
▪ Observe if documents or warrants are signed and ask: “Whose signature?” if unknown.
▪ Do not be intimidated. (As Christopher James says: “You are stronger than you think.”)
▪ Do NOT consent to the trespass of your property.
▪ Do not resist forced arrest or forced trespass, but repeatedly proclaim your non-consent.
▪ Ask, if you can: “What is your right or authority to treat me as property?”
▪ If you are forced to sign something, end it with SUD (or Signed Under Duress) and insist on obtaining a full copy immediately (photo if necessary).
▪ If a ticket is written up and offered, say: “I accept this ONLY as evidence that a trespass is occurring. I do NOT accept this as a contract of obligation or payment.”
▪ Document and record every detail of the encounter as soon as possible.
DISCLAIMER:
We must individually decide what we will do with bullies. They can be deaf and unpredictable having varying degrees of power-complex. There is no guarantee that this approach will de-escalate a confrontation; it may, in some instances, escalate it, but at least it may give options for a common law remedy to pursue if trespass occurs. Each must decide what is best in their circumstances.
Become more informed at A Warrior Calls.6Stand strong, yet we must be respectful and honorable in all we do.
PS: There are various researchers / activists holding an online conference exploring counter-solutions to "The Great Reset" nightmare that is being presented by the powers as a dream Utopia for world problems. The activists' conference is set for January 25-29 and 31. See an invitation here7 or at their website here.8
-------------------------------------------/
Note: Many common and equity law people do not use the word child, just man or woman, but as the Bible refers 2,036 times to children or child, I use it. Also, in my view, a child is not property of parents in the general sense, but in a special sense, since they cannot be bought or sold without consequence. The harming and abuse of children has become a true pandemic in this latter days.
1. Yes, many police have a power-complex that has not been educated or disciplined out of them, but defunding the police is the last thing we need in these troubled times. They need awakening and reminding that police are public servants under oath to protect life, liberty, and property of the PEOPLE; and that their alleged duties and obligations to an employer cannot ever trump rights and freedoms of the people, whatever the alleged crisis. Many are between a rock and a hard place — between their conscience and their job security. It is an agonizing place to be. We should not defund them, we should pray for and educate them to stand as defenders against the Utopians ( https://dejavu-times.blogspot.com/2021/01/utopians-at-open-gates.html ) that are intent on destroying the best of what it means to be human. 2. https://dejavu-timestwo.blogspot.com/2021/01/the-new-normal-samaritan.html 3. https://dejavu-times.blogspot.com/2020/10/pscience.html 4.

In another forum, this past week, I posted this comment
Per your comments on [X]: He is not alone. Many, if not most, of the state, national, world, and corporate leaders have been groomed and seduced into abject servitude to the hidden powers (despite transient perks and privileges). If we knew the threats that many of them face for disobedience, we would pity and pray for them to confess and return to courage and integrity rather than curse them. AND we would realize that there, but for the grace of circumstance (and God), many of us would go. Had we been groomed and seduced (and thereafter threatened) as they, the reality and science of human nature is that many of us, too, would have grasp for the power, gain, and glory they thought they were getting (not realizing the harrowing downside). Yes, some of them are happily psychopathic, but many are not. Consider Corruption by Design at https://dejavu-times.blogspot.com/2020/10/corruption-by-design.html
This does not absolve them of consequence and accountability. To understand does not mean to condone.
Some readers disagreed (with the idea of their own vulnerability), one stating that “If you have CORE VALUES THAT MATTER you don't go with evil.”
Could such certainty be on the blind-side of human nature and of science? Too many of us are blissfully ignorant of how easily the dark side of human nature can be aroused and justified, which I think was evident in another comment:
“Turning the other cheek simply gives them a second target. To defeat evil you must be prepared to fight by turning their weapons against them. Nothing is fair in love and war, and this is war - the sky is the limit - they must be defeated at "All" COSTS!!!”
But I suggest that until we become aware — ever conscious — of how susceptible we are to justifying our own thoughts, words, prejudices, biases, and actions (thus reducing our cognitive dissonance), we will find ourselves justifying things we would condemn without hesitation in others.
Science is also not on the side of those blindly confident in the value of shaming or marginalizing others. I repeat the words of Philip Zimbardo of the Stanford Prison Experiment and author of The Lucifer Effect.1
One of the worst things that we can do to our fellow human beings is deprive them of their humanity, render them worthless by exercising the psychological process of dehumanization. This occurs when the “others” are thought not to possess the same feelings, thoughts, values, and purposes in life that we do. Any human qualities that these “others” share with us are diminished or are erased from our awareness. This is accomplished by the psychological mechanisms of intellectualization, denial, and the isolation of affect. In contrast to human relationships, which are subjective, personal, and emotional, dehumanized relationships are objectifying, analytical, and empty of emotional or empathic content. ...
The misperception of certain others as subhuman, bad humans, inhuman, infra-human, dispensable, or “animals” is facilitated by means of labels, stereotypes, slogans, and propaganda images.2
YET everywhere, in this current control crisis, we are seeing / hearing the shaming and dehumanizing of so-called “power-elites.” Undoubtedly, many of them are guilty of unspeakable crimes and deserve the swift action of lawful judgment and justice, but the trap WE set for ourselves is to feel justified in skipping lawful or honorable, because we judge that: 1) they were neither; 2) they are despicable human beings, thus forfeiting the right to be treated as humans because of their inhumanity; and 3) they deserve everything they get, sooner than later.
But can we abuse others, even abusers, without losing some of our own humanity? The very thoughts and acts of abusing others traps us into a cycle of self-justification. An act of shaming or harming another has parallels to the Stanley Milgram and other experiments. (This quote has been adapted with inclusions [.....] to emphasize the parallels):
As Milgram himself put it, “Many subjects harshly devalue the [target] as a consequence of acting against him. Such comments as, ‘He was so stupid and stubborn [and evil] he deserved to get shocked [or shot or tortured]’ were common. Once having acted against the [target], these subjects found it necessary to view him as an unworthy individual, whose punishment was made inevitable by his own deficiencies of intellect and character.”
The implications of these studies are ominous, for they show that people do not perform acts of cruelty and come out unscathed. Success at dehumanizing the [target] virtually guarantees a continuation or even an escalation of the cruelty: It sets up an endless chain of violence, followed by self-justification (in the form of dehumanizing and blaming the [target]), followed by still more violence and dehumanization. Combine self-justifying perpetrators and [targets], and you have a recipe for the escalation of brutality. This brutality is not confined to brutes— that is, sadists or psychopaths. It can be, and usually is, committed by ordinary individuals, people who have children and lovers, “civilized” people who enjoy music and food and making love and gossiping as much as anyone else. This is one of the most thoroughly documented findings in social psychology, but it is also the most difficult for many people to accept because of the enormous dissonance it produces: “What can I possibly have in common with perpetrators of murder and torture?” It is much more reassuring to believe that they are evil and be done with them. We dare not let a glimmer of their humanity in the door, because it might force us to face the haunting truth of cartoonist Walt Kelly’s great character Pogo, who famously said: “We have met the enemy and he is us.”3
Can we admit that the enemy is also us, if we adopt their cruelties and inhumanity to defeat or punish them? if we brutalize those who have been brutal?
Because of the enormity of the power-elite atrocities, we are going to be tempted to render evil for evil in trying to right wrongs AND then self-justifying our evil as good (as so many have done). The danger is enormous. Somehow, we must bring the crimes and treasons of men and women to full exposure and accountability without falling into the trap of perpetuating evil. Knowing our own vulnerability to self-justification will play a crucial role in preparing us to (indeed) hold to “core values that matter” as we hold others lawfully accountable for the unspeakable harms they have done.
Admittedly, what is proper consequence and punishment — correct judgment and justice — will not be universally agreed upon. There are many difficult questions before us as we wrestle with evil, one of the prime ones being: Is capital punishment inhumane? Is it evil in itself? Or might it affirm the value of life? that one's own life is the forfeit (as determined by a lawful jury of honorable men and women) for willfully taking another's?
One thing seems fairly certain. We have come to this tyranny of control and lying wonders because we failed to understand human nature (including ours); allowed servants of the people and service corporations to act as masters; pretended that the obsessive pursuit and protection of power, gain, and glory were innocuous, worthy, desirable pursuits; and thought we could overcome evil with evil or on the other hand, that we were to "resist not evil." Except, the gestalt / gospel message appears to be: "Resist not with evil, but RESIST, RESIST, RESIST with good.
If we continue blindly confident in our own moral invulnerability, these might prove a place of awakening and awareness:

How much empowerment are we contributing by our ignorance of psychopathic traits and structures?
How much are we and others suffering because we are drowning in distractions, oblivion, fear, and confusion?
How will we ever survive if we don't know about or believe in the reality of spiritual warfare—of
» imitation
» infiltration
» co-option
» intimidation
» deception
» secrecy
» conspiracy, and
» the myriad other manoeuvres of the enemy;
AND if we can't bring ourselves to stand informed and united against them?

* New Testament | Revelation 12:9 ~ And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Book of Mormon | 3 Nephi 6:15-16 ~ Now the cause of this iniquity of the people was this—Satan had great power, unto the stirring up of the people to do all manner of iniquity, and to the puffing them up with pride, tempting them to seek for power, and authority, and riches, and the vain things of the world. And thus Satan did lead away the hearts of the people to do all manner of iniquity; Book of Mormon | 1 Nephi 22:23 ~ For the time speedily shall come that all churches which are built up to get gain, and all those who are built up to get power over the flesh, and those who are built up to become popular in the eyes of the world, and those who seek the lusts of the flesh and the things of the world, and to do all manner of iniquity; yea, in fine, all those who belong to the kingdom of the devil are they who need fear, and tremble, and quake; Book of Mormon | Helaman 12:4–5 ~ O how foolish, and how vain, and how evil, and devilish, and how quick to do iniquity, and how slow to do good, are the children of men; yea, how quick to hearken unto the words of the evil one, and to set their hearts upon the vain things of the world! Yea, how quick to be lifted up in pride; yea, how quick to boast, and do all manner of that which is iniquity; and how slow are they to remember the Lord their God, and to give ear unto his counsels, yea, how slow to walk in wisdom's paths!
1. Although Russ Dizdar is a pastor seeking to educate people in recognizing and overcoming the dark-side, it is still imperative that each person sincerely “Prove all things [by their own searching, and] hold fast that which is good.” (New Testament | 1 Thessalonians 5:21) Every one of us, including Dizdar and this writer, is subject to error because of enculturation, misinformation, misinterpretation, misunderstanding, misapprehension, dogma, ideology, deception, etc., even when we think we are discerning right. God tutors and educates us step by step, line upon line, so when Dizdar (and other good, sincere people) claims certain things about other religions, it behooves seekers to “not trust in the arm of flesh” but to read and study for themselves the doctrines (and fruits) of those religions as they are taught (and manifest) by those religions, and not as construed by outsiders or the disaffected. Perhaps this advice can apply to seekers, everywhere:
And when ye shall receive these things [anything given of God?], I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent [to actually listen and accept what is revealed], having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost. And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things. (Book of Mormon | Moroni 10:4-5)
In the Old Testament Book of Job, we read how one called Satan sought to destroy a “man [who] was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.”*
The pattern was this:
1. devastating financial ruin;1
2. loss of his children / family;2
3. destruction of his health;3
4. loss of the support of his wife;4
5. friends falsely accusing him of wrong-doing, paranoia, etc.;5
6. strangers harassing him;6
7. traumatic dreams, visions, nightmares, confusion, terror, despair;7
8. no one truly listening to / understanding his reasoning and complaints;8
9. no apparent relief, not even when appealing to the highest form of justice (i.e., God).9
With the aid of modern technology, this Job pattern of disrupt and destroy has never been so pervasive and global as in our time. Millions, if not tens of millions, worldwide are becoming targeted individuals (TIs) or associations (TAs) by gang-stalkers as
▪ propaganda, lies, false witness, and moral decay surfeit our world;
▪ compromised / corrupted persons or authorities participate out of fear or favor;
▪ rising unemployment (often deliberately crisis-created) disposes people to become paid dupes or willing / unwilling servants of scripted, unlawful, disrupt and destroy agendas;
▪ free-markets merge with skyrocketing numbers of psychopaths pursuing command and control structures like monopolies and oligopolies;
▪ power elites become frantic to control or destroy anyone opposed to or in competition with their power and gain obsessions;
▪ ethnic-, religious-, or ideological-phobias / malice; and ex-partner hostilities find incredible opportunity for life disruption;
▪ secret combinations team up with the adversary of all good to recreate a world in his image and control;
▪ NWOs (7-headed?) pursue their psychopathic agendas of mind-control;
▪ “WE, the People” allow ourselves: 1) to remain in ignorance of the dire state of our world; 2) to disregard the crimes and injustices of our economic and governmental systems; 3) to be bought and sold like slaves and robots; 4) to remain silent in fear10; and so forth.
Of course, there may be some TIs and TAs whose paranoia is not entirely based in fact, but part of the gang-stalking agenda is to exacerbate disruption and paranoia in subtle, distressing ways that may seem individually innocuous, but in the persistent aggregate are meant to devastate. With the aid of the internet, many witnesses are trying to raise awareness of the “unbelievable”; and to end targeting and bullying.
Could it be that our awareness of and zero tolerance for targeting is vital to saving this world?
Of course, many will dismiss gang-stalking as ridiculous “conspiracy theory,” but when disrupt and destroy agendas11 coincide with historical déjà vus, patterns, and warnings, the willfully ignorant (who are mocked and scorned by psychopathic insiders) will, in time, learn truth by sad experience.
Perhaps, in a campaign to STOP organized harassment, the initial vital steps for most people are: 1) to become aware of this historical (latter-day accelerated) disrupt and destroy agenda; 2) to acknowledge that “we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places”;12 and 3) to seek to access the only protection possible when confronting powers of darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places.
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints (New Testament | Ephesians 6:13-18; bold emphasis added).
NOTE: There are some out there who claim the Law of Attraction governs this gang-stalking “perception.” Do NOT be deceived. There is a First Law of Attraction that supersedes the world's so-called LoA13 that so many deceptively espouse. The superseding First Law of Attraction is this:
The Devil [and his cohorts are] more obsessed with persons striving to do and be good than with persons who are not.
So know this: disrupt and destroy is a universal plan of devils and demons opposite to a Divine Plan for growth in Faith, Hope, and Charity. Each individual's Divine Plan unfolds (or not) as s/he exercises agency in confronting the natural man14 and the demonic powers and promises that entice.
A corollary to this First Law (in a world where psychopaths are obsessed with accumulating ever more power, gain, and control) is that any one who manifests integrity, altruism, independence of thought, spiritual / special gift, or poses any kind of perceived threat to “command and control” agendas will be targeted.
How long till we understand that there is no sure safety or help to be found when we look to the arm of flesh alone?
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint (Old Testament | Isaiah 40:28–31).

* Old Testament | Job 1:1
Also, Old Testament | Job 1:8 ~ And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? Old Testament | Job 2:3 ~ And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
1. Old Testament | Job 1:14–17 ~ And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them: And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 2. Old Testament | Job 1:18–19 ~ While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 3. Old Testament | Job 2:7–8 ~ So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown. And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself withal; and he sat down among the ashes. Old Testament | Job 30:16-31 ~ And now my soul is poured out upon me; the days of affliction have taken hold upon me. My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews take no rest. By the great force of my disease is my garment changed: it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat. He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes. I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me not. Thou art become cruel to me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thyself against me. Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to ride upon it, and dissolvest my substance. For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living. Howbeit he will not stretch out his hand to the grave, though they cry in his destruction. Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? was not my soul grieved for the poor? When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness. My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me. I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation. I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls. My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat. My harp also is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep. 4. Old Testament | Job 2:9 ~ Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die. 5. Old Testament | Job 4:7–9 ~ [Eliphaz:] Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off? Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same. By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed. Old Testament | Job 8:2–6 ~ [Bildad:] How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind? Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice? If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression; If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty; If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous. Old Testament | Job 11:2–3, 13–14 ~ [Zophar:] Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified? Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed? ... If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him; If iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles. Old Testament | Job 15:2–6 ~ [Eliphaz:] Should a wise man utter vain knowledge, and fill his belly with the east wind? Should he reason with unprofitable talk? or with speeches wherewith he can do no good? Yea, thou castest off fear, and restrainest prayer before God. For thy mouth uttereth thine iniquity, and thou choosest the tongue of the crafty. Thine own mouth condemneth thee, and not I: yea, thine own lips testify against thee. Old Testament | Job 18:2–4 ~ [Bildad:] How long will it be ere ye make an end of words? mark, and afterwards we will speak. Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight? He teareth himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of his place? Old Testament | Job 22:5, 21-23 ~ [Eliphaz”] Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite? ... Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart. If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles. Old Testament | Job 34:35–37 ~ [Elihu:] Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom. My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men. For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God. Old Testament | Job 12:4 ~ [Job:] I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is laughed to scorn. 6. Old Testament | Job 30:1, 8–15 ~ [Job:] BUT now they that are younger than I have me in derision, ... They were children of fools, yea, children of base men: they were viler than the earth. And now am I their song, yea, I am their byword. They abhor me, they flee far from me, and spare not to spit in my face. Because he hath loosed my cord, and afflicted me, they have also let loose the bridle before me. Upon my right hand rise the youth; they push away my feet, and they raise up against me the ways of their destruction. They mar my path, they set forward my calamity, they have no helper. They came upon me as a wide breaking in of waters: in the desolation they rolled themselves upon me. Terrors are turned upon me: they pursue my soul as the wind: and my welfare passeth away as a cloud. 7. Old Testament | Job 7:11, 13–15, 20; 10:15 ~ [Job:] Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul. ... When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint; Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions: So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life. ... I am a burden to myself? ... I am full of confusion; 8. Old Testament | Job 19:2-3, 5-22 ~ [Job to his “friends”:] How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words? These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed that ye make yourselves strange to me. ... If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach: Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net. Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment. He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths. He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head. He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree. He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me unto him as one of his enemies. His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle. He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily estranged from me. My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me. They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight. I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I intreated him with my mouth. My breath is strange to my wife, though I intreated for the children's sake of mine own body. Yea, young children despised me; I arose, and they spake against me. All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me. My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth. Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me. Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh? Old Testament | Job 21:1–3; 34 ~ [Job:] ... Hear diligently my speech, and let this be your consolations. Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on. ... How then comfort ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth falsehood? 9. Old Testament | Job 16:9–14, 16, 20 ~ [Job:] ... mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me. They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me. God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked. I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark. His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground. He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant. ... My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death; ... My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.
To read the full of Job's complaints, see particularly chapters 3, 6-7, 9-10, 12-13, 16-17, 18-21, 23-24, 26-31. 10. New Testament | 2 Timothy 1:7 ~ For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 11. http://dejavu-timestwo.blogspot.ca/2017/02/disrupt-and-destroy.html 12. New Testament | Ephesians 6:12 13. http://dejavu-timestwo.blogspot.ca/2009/10/to-sick-and-afflicted.html http://dejavu-timestwo.blogspot.ca/2009/09/why-i-doubt-law-of-attraction.html 14. New Testament | 1 Corinthians 2:14–16 ~ But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. Book of Mormon | Mosiah 3:19 ~ For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father.
Once more we are witness to a “David & Goliath” encounter. In that ancient battle, those standing on the sidelines in the valley knew the outcome could change their lives forever. This 2016 incarnation reaches far beyond any valley or nation. It is global and has already had catastrophic impact.
So, if you don't think you have the time or energy to join the bravehearts, at least learn about them in their own words—NOT from the words of mammon-bloated bullies. Here is their story:
(When videos are taken down or censored, search the title on YouTube to see if it had been mirrored somewhere else.)
You can listen to this while driving, waiting, eating, cooking, doing chores, or just lounging, but LISTEN*, please. The outcome of this battle may prove to be one of the pivot points of history.
If one were a psychopath/sociopath1—i.e., a PWOC2—whose raison d’être was to pursue power and gain, what would one be predisposed to do:
▪ lie?
▪ steal?
▪ cheat?
▪ distort?
▪ falsely accuse?
▪ malign?
▪ short change?
▪ manipulate mankind and markets?
▪ create profit-generating catastrophes?
▪ foment wars?
▪ externalize costs?
▪ convert (corrupt) a good into an evil?
▪ hire shills and trolls to front for one?
▪ etc., etc., etc.
But let us consider: corrupting a good into an evil.
A recent exposé of unconscionable corruption and fraud is profiled in Vaxxed3—a documentary that everyone should watch (as Robert De Niro encourages) so we can make up our own mind as to its credibility. Despite shills, trolls, and dupes maligning this film, it is NOT anti-vaccine. It presents as anti-corruption, anti-fraud, anti-abuse, anti-tyranny, anti-PWOCs; its concern: pro-health, pro-child, pro-family, pro-transparency, pro-choice, pro-safety, pro-uncorrupted science. It is a voice crying in the profit-driven wilderness against vaccine protocols that are:
▪ untested and unproven respecting the safety of vaccine mixtures;
▪ decades past due for review and exposure of timing and effectiveness;
▪ insufficiently and corruptly assessed by oversight bodies;
▪ in critical need of open, honest discussion;
▪ in dire need of punitive accountability.
So, how long till we clue in that mega-corps and their HyPEs4 who swim in psychopathic waters (who stand to lose massive amounts of “power and gain” if truth be told) cannot be trusted in any degree?
Can we not see the déjà vu?—that vaccine “science” has become a latter-day, oppressive tyranny like unto the days of Galileo?—blindly committed to its own preservation, gain, and status quo, whatever the cost to others?
Stu•pid•i•ty* noun
- an idea, act, or expression that shows a lack of good sense or judgment
“Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.”
―Albert Einstein
“Human beings always[?] do the most intelligent thing … after they’ve tried every stupid alternative and none of them have worked.”
― R. Buckminster Fuller
Which brings us to 1) the bathroom uproar; and 2) to a tangentially-related matter―the US political landscape. First, let us consider
The Bathroom.
Here we are, living in a world of increasing violence toward and objectifying of women (the evidence fills our headlines1), yet we pretend that gender-neutral, multi-stall bathrooms, showers, and locker rooms will not attract the worst kind of deviants on the coattail of tolerance for transgender and gender-variant persons. There may be nothing to fear from the latter, but the former will not be long in abusing the naiveté and romanticism of the most liberal-minded. And do not misinterpret: I am not equating transgender with deviants. I use “deviant” to describe sociopaths/psychopaths of every gender (or variant) who live without conscience vis-à-vis their fellow human beings.
So, this open invitation may seem charitable and compassionate:
“Please use the restroom that feels most comfortable to you”
but in amended quote of Bertrand Russell:
“A [deviant] man's report of what a [tolerant] man says can never be accurate, because he unconsciously translates what he hears into something he can understand [or justify].”2
The University of Toronto has already experienced such an “understanding.”
University of Toronto Dumps Transgender Bathrooms After Peeping Incidents3
So how about we actually:
▪ use our heads;
▪ consider centuries-long and current observations of human nature and gender-dynamics;4
▪ remember that the world is FAR from a level playing field of moral development;
▪ quit pretending that our “high-minded” solutions will change human nature;
▪ quit pretending that the “low-minded” are not part of this picture;
▪ inform ourselves about porn addiction statistics5 and the manifest dangers for others;
▪ admit how quickly memes6 (especially inappropriate ones) can become viral—like the recent obscene, public harassment of many female TV reporters;
▪ acknowledge that we are in the midst of a plague of psychopaths7 and sex-addicts who aren't going away any time soon;
▪ acknowledge that the increasing violence toward and objectifying of women (and increasingly children and men) does not bode well for sharing gender-neutral bathrooms (in their present or any multiple design) with strangers of the opposite sex;
▪ realize that genderless restrooms will not secure a safe, comfortable place for anyone because an open invitation allows everyone to be followed or confronted in any restroom by any bully or deviant;
▪ quit playing into the manipulations and machinations of social engineers;
▪ consider the safety, privacy, and feelings of EVERYONE.
Does this have to be so divisive and pandora-like? What is so intolerable about maintaining gender-specific, multi-stall washrooms for those who are OK being gender-specific as we seek to accommodate other needs by adding gender-neutral / family-friendly, lockable rooms for the private use of anyone who wishes to use them (including anyone gender-specific). Many sites already have these genderless, private facilities. But to pretend the entire, happy, costless solution is to rip the gender sign from the door (as Stephen Colbert did8) is to be naive at best and ____________ (?) at worst; or, in words from The Peter Principle:9
“Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it.” ―Laurence J. Peter
And to those who think that normalizing men in womens' restrooms does not compromise safety, feelings, and/or privacy, consider this:
if a woman walks into a womens'-designated restroom and finds a man (or men) out-of-place, she can rapidly exit and report it without feeling she is being intolerant or impolite;
compared to:
she walks into the only available restroom labelled gender-neutral and encounters the very same, but if her instincts warn of danger, she now battles with social expectations and judgments.
Don't we already have too many “polite,” scarred women who didn't heed instinct?
And what of a man's wish for privacy? Does he want some stranger with her 4-year old daughter barging past his urinal?
In fifty years, at some historical review—if we manage to survive this age of tolerating stupidity (as in geoengineering, CERN, HAARP, GMOs, psychotropics, corporatism, Objectivism, NINJ loans, fiat money, media-complicit propaganda, science-for-hire, etc., etc., etc.)—will our descendants label the first two decades of the twenty-first century as an age of full-blown idiot-savants?—the prelude to an age of darkness?
As we are out of space and time for topic #2, here are three brief questions for the “right” half of the entire wind-blasted, despoiled
US political landscape.
How in the world can citizens fantasize that this corporate tyrant (with his history, mendacity, and bully-posturing) will lift a finger to save anything of the Constitution or its Bill of Rights or to make America “great” again? If ever there was a time of “seeing they see not and hearing they hear not,” it must be this age of blind ambition (within and about both parties).
Has the face of Babylon ever been so transparent in any candidate, ever? But no! we remain fixated on Socialism as if that were the worst enemy!! Maybe we should take time to review what God had to say about each.10
It seems far too many don't care to honestly inform themselves about the truth of their tragic state of the Union, both to the right and to the left. Do we really think that a choice between two great evils is really a choice??

An American prophet even wrote this observation to a newspaper editor in 1833:
Mr. Editor:—Sir, … For some length of time I have been carefully viewing the state of things, as it now appears, throughout our Christian land; and have looked at it with feelings of the most painful anxiety. While upon one hand I behold the manifest withdrawal of God's Holy Spirit, and the veil of stupidity which seems to be drawn over the hearts of the people; upon the other hand, I behold the judgments of God that have swept, and are still sweeping hundreds and thousands of our race, and I fear unprepared, down to the shades of death. With this solemn and alarming fact before me, I am led to exclaim, "O that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night." … I think that it is high time for a Christian world to awake out of sleep, and cry mightily to that God, day and night, … (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, Deseret Book Co., 1976, 13.)
"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us." (OT:Ecclesiastes 1:9-10)
"Dwell in the past and you'll lose an eye. Forget the past and you'll lose both eyes." (Old Russian Proverb)

▪ Life is a three-act drama with pre-mortal, mortal, and post-mortal stages. ▪ The second act boils us down toward test one:[1] the test of power. ▪ Abusers of power lose it in Act Three when justice and equity take the bench. ▪ Tipping points happen—over time and a fulcrum. ▪ Motes and beams are everywhere.[2] ▪ Folly is a shadow of every ism, including capitalism. ▪ Money talks louder than morals—all the way to the tipping point. ▪ The direction you are facing, matters.[3] ▪ Extremism in the defense of liberty is extremism.[4] ▪ When the blind follow the blind, it is time to blow the whistle.[5] ▪ Opposites attract the same lobbyists. ▪ Solon of Athens espoused, “Nothing in excess;” laissez-faire capitalists pursue “Everything in excess” (except the costs of gross profit). ▪ “Simplify” displayed on the counter-top of a new 21,000 sq. ft. home does not compute. ▪ High fructose corn syrup is not the staff of life. Unfortunately, sweets can twirl your teeth. ▪ Revolving doors between government and business do not admit sufficient fresh air. ▪ The common good doesn’t seem to be very common. ▪ N. American football is a testosterone pageant in tights.[6] ▪ Exploitation is a delusion of grandeur. Stewardship is a grander conclusion. ▪ The excesses of major religions occur when members fail their espoused values. The excesses of ideological tyrannies occur when tyrants act upon theirs.[7] ▪ Praise is best deflected toward God. ▪ Too many who say, “I do, I do,” don’t. ▪ Electronic media has become the Roman Coliseum of the 21st Century. ▪ The First Law of Attraction[8]: the Devil is more obsessed with persons striving to do and be good than with persons who are not. ▪ The trans-rational[9] is beyond most of us, so if it’s “turtles all the way down,”[10] maybe it is “revelation all the way up.”[11] ▪ Egoism accounts for 80% of human problems. The remaining 27% lies with rhetoric and propaganda.
In the near words of Groucho Marx, “These are my [views]; if you don’t like them, I have others.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [1]New Testament: Matt. 4:2-4—The first temptation presented to Jesus, to misuse His power to satisfy self-interest/-will/-gratification. [2] Ref: Matthew 7:3-5 [3]Old Testament: Jer. 32:33 [4] A Barry Goldwater phrase “Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.” A phrase applauded by some of the GOP. (Suggestion: reverse liberty and justice to see if it sounds more palatable, or is the latter half merely castor-oil for the first?) [5] Ref: Matthew 15:14 [6] Observation of a friend, MS, who wishes to remain anonymous for obvious reasons. [7] Ref: Ravi Zacharias [8] Ref: Adam & Eve; Biblical Job; Jesus in the Wilderness; CS Lewis’ Screwtape Letters, etc., etc., etc. [9] Ref: Flatland by Edwin Abbott. In summary, circles, squares and other flatlanders can’t get a fix on spheres and cubes; can’t quite reason themselves into the properties of those in 3-D space. Enlightenment of things beyond (i.e., trans-) Flatland takes condescension from those above & beyond. Any parallels here in 3-D? [10]Google this phrase if you have not heard of it. It’s just one way of saying we don’t have a rational explanation for some things. [11] Conditional on the will of the Revelator and the willingness/ ability of the revelatee to receive.
