I am very upset to find that the UN Sustainable Development has come to my small town after our devastating Hurricane Harvey in 2017. The local city council is so ignorant that they have no idea what they have done! It was brought to our community through grants and pushed on us by our Land Commissioner George P. Bush the grandson of the evil George H. W. Bush who first mentioned the word of a One World Government. This is why our president needs to get us completely out of the UN and declare these local Sustainable Development UN people as being null and void! After looking at other cities in my state, it was horrifying to see how many had signed up with this group of communists! Why can’t people and our local city councils recognize these people and why do they trust our government-state and federal- to regard them as being our friend? I fear it will be no time before our country is completely taken over by this trash! What can I do?

A great piece on techno-government vs individual freedom. Spreading it far and wide. Nothing to add.

Emma Goldman was a brilliant intellect of her time. Regrettably she remained blind to that metaphysical force whose hidden manipulative hands held the reins. The illusion of history and time tends to blind us all.

BTW, Fuller worked closely with the old Technocracy Inc movement. He was a True Believer who associated with the purveyors of Cybernetics, social engineering, and mind control experimentation.

Of course the antithesis is decentralized communities working cooperatively and in full transparency which is far more resilient and effective. Reminds me of the fascinating book The Starfish and the Spider: The Unstoppable Power of Leaderless Organizations (free pdf available online).

At times Technocracy and modern day political systems attempt to feign a starfish appearance (‘buy local, think global’) when in reality they are always the spider.

REading this, and being in particular mood, it grieved me that humanity could be so stupid when charting their own course. our selfish tendencies sabotage us every time. but from here I will diverge. We have bigger problem in that their is a far great intelligence in a realm or dimension if you prefer, that has far more power and ability that all us humans put together. And these seek to corrupt us and destroy us, claiming that our designer/architect, created a flawed defective design that was laughable and absurd. So they seek to prove what idiots we are. However, they are not being reasonable or honest in admitting that they interfered with the process designed for us to develop in. So they are exclusively responsible for our wayward course and selfish stupidity and pride, too. So we no longer have the control of our minds and instinct, that go hand in hand. We can not fix ourselves but our Designer can fix us, If only we wanted to be fixed and accepted His plan for rehabilitaiton. Really, all we can do is point out that we are terribly flawed and that it is beyond our ability to get us our of our own mess. We need our designer and builder to fix us, but it requires us to submit to his rules that would keep us in line so that we can be slowly brought back to a state of being trauma-free and disciplined enough to stay on the right track and live in cooperation with our species rather than being predators of our own species. No matter where I turn, I run into children being used and abuse by parents, relatives, neighbors, teachers, coaches Authorities and more. We can not survive doing that, but our designer also has 100% power and control, while we have zero power and control. He can make enforcement stick. Anyone refusing to cooperate during rehabilitation, will be eliminated for not wanting to continue in his own rehabilitation by following the process and rules that go with it. We need help far beyond our own abilities. that is the only solution. And a warning to all, when Aliens show up, and they will, they are part of a sinister plan. They are not really Aliens. they are humans pretending. don’t follow them. Then intend to get ua all killed. But our designer/builder is not going to let them go that far.

all debates about how to better mean nothing without the help of the one who built us in the 1st place. that said, Hummans are a huge disappointment. once the instinct is injured, we are totally useless.

´´That freedom is the launching pad for everything the individual can imagine and create, in order to build a greater future.´´

Reminder`: We have enough food, water, and money on the planet – we won already!

The one positive change from a century ago is that you’re not thrown in jail or mob attacked for writing this. I’m reading a memoir of the anarchist Russian immigrant Emma Goldman – whose devotion to her “ideals” landed her in jail most of the time.
Maybe another century, the masses will wake up and realize the insanity of the “amorphous swollen blob” of government.

I knew there has been very good reason at looking at imagination you speak so highly about and it’s potential positive outcomes from doing so. More respect for it from me now. And the creative impulse. Imagination.
