Explosion of Moral Injury!


Give or Take
Moral Injury Either Way

In December 2020, there was a news article about Canadian reservists being trained to cope with moral injury.1 Here is the first part of my 2020 responding post:
Does it give anyone pause to know that our military reservists are being set-up for “moral injury”?1

And what is moral injury? you ask. From a film-slide in the training module, it says:
"A moral injury is harm caused by 'perpetrating, failing to prevent, witnessing, or learning about actions that violate deeply held moral beliefs and expectation,'"
In other words, it's an (emotional, spiritual, psychological) injury you incur when you do, see, or learn about an immoral / inhumane / criminal / despicable act which you did not stop or felt you could not avert because of fear, force, or desire to stay in favor with commanders or colleagues. It is to violate your conscience (your sense of right and wrong) and, thereafter, in most instances, it is followed by self-justification, as a survival mechanism.2 [2023 Note:This last sentence was not part of the training manual, but was my observation from the science of human behavior.]

There does not seem to be any instruction in the training on how to avoid “moral injury” by speaking up, by asserting one's conscience, by refusing to sanction violations of one's moral beliefs or expectations, by reporting or whistleblowing. There is only (alleged) sympathy for having been injured.
We may sometimes witness situations that seem 'inhuman' to us.
"This injustice may cause us to feel powerless and hurt."
The slide encouraged soldiers to seek support if needed. (See ftn 1 again)
In that 2020 post, the focus was on moral injury suffered by a witness or perpetrator of harm, injury, or injustice that violated their sense of right and wrong. NOW, after witnessing these past three years, the moral injury training seems to have been but a primer for self-justifying the infliction of moral injury upon others. Remember the lockdowns, the takedowns, the shutdowns? the drive-by weddings, funerals, grads, churches, celebrations? the window kisses, signing, palming, pretended hugs? the snitch phone-lines? the uniformed and non-uniformed threats and tyranny? Can we see the twisted inversion where narrative obedients were trained to focus on their moral injury for having to do their essential, injurious jobs, all without mention of the moral injuries to targets and victims? Thus it was that the “necessary” infliction of moral injury exploded.

One horrific case on point: the National Citizen’s Inquiry expert witness describing the past three plus years in Canada’s military.3 Listen and ask: What else can we possibly call this but egregious, unconscionable moral injury inflicted upon all rank-and-file military by chain-of-command narrative lackeys? Every Canadian citizen and resident should listen to this NCI witness and protest non-stop against: 1) this continuing charade of “safe and effective”; 2) the endless deception and gas-lighting by the (so-called) power elites; 3) the treasonous duplicity of divided loyalties.4

When are we (Canadians and USians) going to finally clue in that our greatest danger is not from foreign actors, but from stooges and PWOCs5 within our own power structures, who, by their actions, have deliberately decimated our military, our economy, our freedoms, our constitution, our values, our rule of law? What greater illustration of our government's decline can we observe than that the entire Canadian House of Commons should rise en masse in thunderous applause at the un-vetted urging of a Speaker lauding a “hero” who turned out to be a Nazi war veteran of an SS unit linked to war crimes and ethnic cleansing6 full color exposure of the blind leading the blind down the garden path into full pathocracy7!

Oh, yes, we have gone into a justified paroxysm over this world-observed moral injury to Canada, her MPs and citizens, but too many still remain oblivious to the explosion of moral injuries of the past three years; and unless we wake up and denounce moral injuries, they will escalate to places we could never have imagined a brief three years ago.

And, by the way, what if all this recent talk of resilience is just to help us accept the new order of escalating moral injury? Listen:

Edmonton · Exclusive: Military reservists preparing for possible deployment in Prairies as COVID-19 rates soar by Jennie Russell, Charles Rusnell,  Murray Brewster · CBC News · Posted: Dec 08, 2020 2:00 AM MT | Last Updated: December 8
CBC News has viewed slides that formed a training module for the Alberta reservists
A slide titled "Palliative Care" says, "Caring for the body of the deceased is something that we may experience during Op LASER. It is an occasion to pay our last respects to the person.
"The current circumstances may require us to place their corpse in a body bag and/or vehicle," it said, emphasizing the need to do so in a respectful way.
Another slide warned soldiers that they may suffer what is referred to as a "moral injury."
"A moral injury is harm caused by 'perpetrating, failing to prevent, witnessing, or learning about actions that violate deeply held moral beliefs and expectation,'" it said.
"Because of COVID-19, many people will die earlier than they would have otherwise, and with fewer resources than would normally be available to them. We may sometimes witness situations that seem 'inhuman' to us. 
"This injustice may cause us to feel powerless and hurt."
The slide encouraged soldiers to seek support if needed. (Bold Emphasis added.)

The Real Truth? POEC* or NCI**


We Decide
Evidence-based
*POEC: Public Order Emergency Commission (investigation 2022; report 2023)1
**NCI: National Citizens' Inquiry (investigation: 2023; report forthcoming)2

Well, folks, within a few months, WE The People will have the Citizens’ Report — the side of the story we had hoped (in vain) to hear during the POEC hearings (Fall 2022), but alas, during POEC, gov't. power, control, and propaganda prevailed as it frequently does. So if you are craving a dose of truth (and even if you’re not), you should begin preparing for the National Citizens’ Report by going to
https://nationalcitizensinquiry.ca/testimony/ or
https://rumble.com/user/NationalCitizensInquiryCA
and poring over the numerous witness accounts. (Apparently YT isn’t into citizen-based truth, so its website has its arbitrary limits and restraints.3)

But how, you might ask, are WE to tell who is telling the truth? Perhaps we could begin by listening to the consequence portion (of truth and consequence) for those witnesses countering power narratives. What have they risk or lost? Another clue is perceiving who is praised and who is maligned by narrative-groupies (as in most of the MSM).

So let us help counter the politicized, propagandized pseudoscience (aka: pscience). Let us spread the witness far and wide: “The Citizens are coming! The Citizens are coming!” with FACTS and DATA exposing the great, continuing deception of “Safe and Effective.”

Is this not a duty that we owe to our fellow men, women, and children — not to mention all those servants of We The People who have forgotten who they are and what their duty is?

At the least, let us do our civic duty to spread the words of NCI.

P.S.: Here is the brief email I sent today to every Alberta MLA and MP (plus PM, DPM. CdnHM), plus County Officials and Alberta Medical Assoc. with the subject line: “Safe and Effective” Liability?  [except for the County: “Safe and Effective” Disclosures]
If any are still believing or espousing the “safe and effective” mantra, it would be advisable to spend many hours here:
    https://nationalcitizensinquiry.ca/testimony/
or here:
    https://rumble.com/user/NationalCitizensInquiryCA
in preparation for the release of the National Citizens' Inquiry report. The interim report* released September 14, 2023 should alert every advocate of “safe and effective.” NCI witnesses disclose the science that will, undoubtedly, be used in coming months to prove remediation for harms and injuries.
Sincerely,
SM Smith
* https://nationalcitizensinquiry.ca/commissioners-report/
Perhaps readers of this blog post from other regions could send something similar to their officials to raise awareness of NCI. Most email addresses are easily extracted from government websites.

Update: the 28 emails to the Alberta Medical Assoc. doctors and administration were rejected with this message: "Your message wasn't delivered because the recipient's email provider rejected it." This 3rd email over the past 3 years was one too many, I guess.

Hippie-Crits*?


(*Hippie-crits coined by commentor @yourgoogleaccount8428)1

If one didn’t know much about Burning Man,2 this season’s festival brought it to international attention over labor-day weekend; and though many of the Burners have only passing resemblance to the hippie counterculture of the ’60s, yet many of the anti-system attitudes prevail in our selfie-, consumerist-, cancel-culture of today. Ironic or not, labor-day weekends always host this annual festival of escapism.3 Of course, there is value in periodic escapism from duties, responsibilities, and routine, but could these two video-casters had some useful questions and insights?

So what do we think: Is Burning Man innocuous or revelatory? Was the flood of mud a wake-up signal? How many millions now know about Burning Man and its cousins worldwide? festivals of burning destruction? How many still mourn the Maui burn of scarce one month before? or the many recent burnings worldwide of forests, fields, homes, and businesses?

Why do so many (especially the powers) take such pleasure in destruction? Oh, that destroyers would awaken and realize that, in the end, they will reap exactly what they sow (as prophesied!).

Back to the (Music) Future, Please? (as in Bee Gees, et al.)


In this time of dire need for blistering, truth-laden, protest songs, like those of Oliver Anthony, Tom MacDonald, John Rich, Tyson James, Buddy Brown, to name a few, there is also a dire need to add counter-point to the protest. 

Remember the soul music of the '50s, '60s, & '70s — those decades of the Bee Gees, the Supremes, the Righteous Brothers, Roberta Flack, Carole King, Johnny Mathis, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, The Jackson Five, Tom Jones, Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin; the list goes on and on1? Is the musicality — the soul-stirring melodies — of those decades worth perpetuating when soul was the medium regardless of race or gender? when most of us openly admired and respected each artists' talents and gifts without prejudice? when voice and melody lifted the soul from the stresses of so many of our days?

Where in 2023 can we find such melodious soul? I ask because I see Gens Y (Millennials) and Z rediscovering melodious soul and wishing it or something like it was, or had been, a part of their teens and twenties. To make a “heavenly” case on point, here are first reactions to the Bee Gees “(Nobody Gets) Too Much Heaven”:
Songwriter reacts to Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven (THIS GOT ME IN SHOCK!)2

First Ever Hearing Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven (Reaction!!)3

First Time Hearing Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven Reaction4

First Time Watching BeeGees - Too Much Heaven (reaction)5

Bee Gees Too Much Heaven Reaction6

FIRST TIME HEARING Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven (Official Music Video) REACTION They Spoke To My Soul7

First Time Hearing Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven REACTION8

From these seven reaction videos (and there are thousands), we witness the power of music to lift souls and transcend boundaries of every kind; and so I ask: Will there be a future for old or new soul artists that transcend the years and heal the manufactured divides engineered by tyrannical forces? Or are the catalogues of soul music targeted for buy-up and then deep-sixing from the plebeian masses because real soul music has too much universal appeal; too many unifying vibes; too much longing, healing, hope, and truth-telling? Soul music creates “too much heaven” when hellish things are being done; and they know it.
 
So, please, artists of melodious soul: DO NOT sell your soul music to devouring corps.9 In these days of war on freedom, culture, sociality, and truth, soul music might prove the unchained melody10 that leads us out of and beyond the tyranny and faux-topia of The Great Reset Deception.

The Garden Path to Pathocracy?


IF “pathocracy” means “the type of political system in which psychopaths rule”1 would we recognize it if we saw it? And if we did recognize it, would we do anything about it or would we prefer to affix a label: “conspiracy theory”2 as we continued our stumbling stroll down the serpent-strewn “garden path”3?

Frankly, nigh all of us have been on the garden path for some time; that's why we are in these dire straits of ignorance, distraction, denial, apathy, and misplaced trust; so here are two short upgrades to our awareness base:

#1: The Psychology of Psychopaths - Predators who Walk Among Us


The Psychology of Psychopaths - Predators who Walk Among Us
(Academy of Ideas | July 11, 2023 | Time 13:43 min.) at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOyLraNMXM0 or at their website:
https://academyofideas.com/2023/07/the-psychology-of-psychopaths-predators-who-walk-among-us/
In the concluding paragraph, the Academy of Ideas speaker gives this warning (beginning circa min. 11:44):
While psychopaths have plagued all societies throughout history, the problem of their existence is amplified by contemporary trends toward political centralization. Governments are reaching their tentacles into ever more areas of life, global institutions are attempting to place the entire globe under the same yoke of tyranny, and developments in technology are creating the potential for a form of totalitarian rule that is far more invasive than anything that has come before. As psychopaths crave power, as they are naturally charismatic, skilled liars, and unconstrained by empathy, fear, anxiety, and guilt, it is reasonable to surmise that some psychopaths gravitate towards, or are actively established in, positions of political power. In his book Political Ponerology, the Polish psychiatrist Andrzej Łobaczewski proposed the name pathocracy for the type of political system in which psychopaths rule, and unless more people are aware of the threat of this predatory class, this type of rule may become a full-blown reality.
“I shall accept the denomination of pathocracy for a system of government…wherein a small pathological minority takes control over a society of normal people….if an individual in a position of political power is a psychopath, he or she can create an epidemic of psychopathology in people who are not, essentially, psychopathic…Under such conditions, no area of social life can develop normally, whether in economics, culture, science, technology, administration, etc. Pathocracy progressively paralyzes everything.”
Andrzej Łobaczewski, Political Ponerology
#2: SHOCKING: Top 10 Professions for Psychopaths!


SHOCKING: Top 10 Professions for Psychopaths!

Full episode at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL4PyLEi8jY
Does this list of professions help explain the last three years and the “epidemic of psychopathology in  [other] people who are not, essentially, psychopathic”? 
  #1  CEOs
  #2  Lawyers
  #3  Media (TV/Radio)
  #4  Sales people
  #5  Surgeons
  #6  Journalists
  #7  Police
  #8  Clergy
  #9  Chefs
#10  Civil Servants
By knowing these things, will we be any better prepared for the next double-barreled assault by people without conscience (aided by their naïve or infected acolytes) managing another  “crisis of caring” — a crisis that must not be allowed to go to waste4?

Let us pray (every day, all day) for a great awakening to the reality of our national and global pathocracies.

Fwoke* Blow-Back


(*Faux-woke being actions and words that invert the original meaning of woke.1)

It pretty much had to happen. You cannot take people who believe in freedom of speech, thought, expression, conscience, etc., and aggressively bully them into publicly and privately affirming and submitting to pretentious, self-obsessed diva / divo (SOD) narratives without eventual blow-back. Those of the fwoke class have been seduced by SOD activists whose tyrannical inversions of reality and reason have descended so far into the mockingly absurd2 that even those they pretend to care about have seen through the faux-empathy into the core pursuit: narcissistic supply. Witness the “damage” the faux-woke and their SOD activists have done and are doing to their alleged cause:

Correction! FWOKE


In a prior post (“Let Us Be Clear!1), Déjà Vu - Times II named the corruption and inversion of 1930's “woke" principles as “new woke” (nwoke) to distinguish it from the original woke, but on reflection and observation of numerous SOD2 activists and their adherents over the past month, the more descriptive term is not “new woke” (nwoke), but faux-woke (fwoke) since most everything the SOD activists pursue is inverted and regressive of what woke stands for. In fwoke DEI-ology, diverging from SOD opinions is not allowed. Equity vanishes in the special acknowledgements, affirmations, privileges, and exceptions they demand for themselves and seek to compel others to accept and honor. Anyone, regardless of race, age, profession, status, etc., who does not affirm their life choices is to be excluded from all the rights, privileges, and freedoms they claim for their special group.

Let us not affirm the misuse and abuse of words such as “woke” when its meaning has been corrupted. Let us begin using faux-woke or fwoke to identify and expose the appropriation, inversion, and corruption.

2. SOD: self-obsessed diva / divo

DEI-ology: The Great Pretense*?


Has the "stay woke" of the 1930s (perhaps in use as early as the 1860s1) been appropriated by an assortment of tyrannical characters whose dei-ology plays out as a great pretense — an exercise in aggressive gas-lighting?

How can we not see that for most “woke-usurpers”2 there is only one diversity that matters — the diversity of spectrum-ized sexual orientation preached by SOD (self-obsessed diva / divo) activists and their acolytes. No matter your skin color, your birth gender, your age, your politics, your status, your worldly success; (your whatever), if you do not kowtow to the SOD dei-ology, you have no equity in their system; you have no inclusion; you have no voice. In their view, your diversity (whoever you are) is anathema, intolerable, hateful, racist, and phobic. Under an umbrella (mis)labelled WOKE, the SOD activists have sharpened and weaponized the umbrella shaft for a single purpose — to tyrannize and normalize an imagined sex spectrum. And ironically, the chant of dei-ologists against all thoughts or opinions (diversity!) that do not affirm their narrative is: Die! Die! Die! They are the ones who hate (just listen to them), and if criticism is given in response to the tyranny of their language and demands, they seem oblivious to their own culpability and self-deception. They label even the mildest of criticism as hate; everything is viewed though the lens of a ruminated victim dei-ology.

Just observe how “Woke” has been squeezed by the SOD activists into an endless parade of SOD characters and their captured sycophants — people without apparent memory or conscience. The genuine dysphorics get thrown under the SOD bus driven by drama queens and kings.

Genuine dysphorics just want to live their lives without demanding that the world affirm, applaud, and pay bending homage to their choices. They wish to attend social, sports, or other functions in their chosen persona without fanfare and without the narcissistic need to have the entire event and all actors, athletes, and audience roll out the rainbow or lavender carpet in spectacular welcome, which, by the way, violates every one of their trumpeted mantras: diversity, equity, inclusion. Where is the diversity and equity in excluding everyone who is not SOD in the special recognition and affirmation of their life choices? Where is the DEI in their vociferous demands for special privilege and exemption from criticism or challenge or hurt feelings? There was little push-back, in recent years, against private, personal choice until the SOD activists took strident centerstage.

Thinkers and scholars have given warning:
“A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself within” — Will Durant.3

“ The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that speak it ” — Selwyn Duke.4
“Of the twenty-two civilizations that have appeared in history, nineteen of them collapsed when they reached the moral state the United States is in now” ― Arnold Joseph Toynbee.5

“The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history” — Unknown.6

“[T]he simple step of a simple courageous man is not to partake in falsehood, not to support false actions!” ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.7
“I have always held that social justice, even to the least and lowliest, is impossible of attainment by force” ― Mahatma Gandhi.8
Let us take warning and refuse to participate in the great pretense that DEI-ology  trumpets, but inverts (to die-ology).

1. https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woke
The phrase stay woke had emerged in [African-American Vernacular English] AAVE by the 1930s, in some contexts referring to an awareness of the social and political issues affecting African Americans.

2. Questions: a) If woke began (circa 1930s) with good cause, has it now been appropriated, infiltrated, co-opted, and mutilated to its harm by narcissists and moles?
b) Has the original woke voice been drowned in a flood of inverted woke led by pretenders in make-believe narratives? Should we thus give them a more accurate acronym: nwoke, as in — nefarious warlocks of kowtow enforcement. Or maybe more descriptive yet: nuetered-woke.
c) Is the intent of many “activists” and moles to mock woke into a final state of rejection and oblivion? a final solution by the ideologues of World Order — WO?
d) Is that why jesters of extremism, hypocrisy, and make-believe are being censored? because mockers and inverters of good cannot tolerate being mocked in return?
