"The right question is usually more important than the right answer."

I’ve started to notice that a lot of people I really connect with have been through similar struggles. There’s something about walking a tough path that opens your eyes in a different way.

For me, things really started to shift when I realized something simple but hard to accept: James 2:10. Even if it's "just one sin", it still matters. And if you’re not into hearing about scripture, I get that. But think about this: everything happens for a reason. And I had to start asking myself why things were happening the way they were.

Sin is like any other addiction. Once you give in, even just once, it lowers the mental wall you’ve built. It becomes easier to slip further without even realizing it. Even when it was “just one sin,” I knew God wasn’t pleased, and honestly, I wasn’t either. I was frustrated. Mad at Him. Mad at life. Mad at myself.

The last few years were rough. I went through psychosis, and had a lot of challenges with friends, family, and relationships. I tried to beat addiction a dozen times, weed and alcohol, and now I’m working on nicotine too. I was sober for 8 months at one point, then slowly started again, and it didn’t take long before I was back in a dark place.

But recently, I made a real decision. I let go of all the sin I was still knowingly holding on to. And the change I’ve seen in my life has been wild. I’m getting my memory and focus back, I feel more grounded, and my prayers feel different now. Like I’m finally talking to God, not just talking at Him. I believe now that He hears me, and I know I’m safe.

There was a time I chased money thinking it would let me help people, but deep down, I wanted security more than I wanted God. It wasn’t until I removed every negative influence from my life, even temporarily, that I started to see clearly. Sometimes you really do need a few months just to yourself to reset and reconnect.

My journey started in January 2023. Yours doesn’t have to take as long. I just pray that you keep your heart open and stay willing to grow, even if it’s hard.

Sin is an addiction, but like any addiction, it can be broken. True freedom doesn’t come from willpower alone, it comes through faith. And through faith, all things are possible. Choose faith.

God bless.

Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”

The Telegraph.

“These Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack,” Mr Trump wrote alongside the black-and-white aerial footage said to show an air strike on the Iranian-backed group.

“Oops, there will be no attack by these Houthis. They will never sink our ships again,” the US president wrote.

The 25-second clip showed a group starting to gather, before an explosion left only two trucks visible and a deep crater in the ground, as smoke cleared.

Yahya Saree, a Houthi spokesman, denied the gathering was linked to the rebels.

He said: “Does the US take pride in such an act? This was a tribal gathering that had nothing to do with your ships.”

“You failed to hit any military targets, so you bombed civilians instead,” he added, according to Iran’s state media. “We promise you the greatest defeat you will ever suffer.”

The Trump administration has been carrying out daily air strikes on Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen for the past three weeks.

The campaign is a response to the Houthi threat against Israeli vessels in the Red Sea, renewed after the IDF resumed its war in Gaza.

Details of the US strikes were revealed last month when a journalist was mistakenly added to a private Signal group chat between senior US officials.

Just because I belong to a sub I get a permanent ban just for the act of association? I follow all subreddits of dramatically different political persuasions to get a plethora of views so I can be informed. This just encourages echo chambers, ideological possession, and the very “radicalization” they claim to ward against. Anybody else experience this? Insane.

This interesting post popped up on the sub a few weeks back. The OP nuked it after it started gaining steam. Luckily someone copied the text with all the links and asked for it to be reposted.

Here’s the original text in its original form, links and all:

DISCLAIMER: Before I begin, I want to make a few things crystal clear. I am not at all sure what any of the following actually implies. Nor do I think any of it suggests that Hollywood celebrities are actually in contact with demons or Satan, any more than the existence of Scientologists implies that they are actually in contact with a dictator of a galactic confederacy. I also don't want to disrespect anyone's belief systems, so I'm also not inclined to denounce anyone for believing some celebrities actually are in contact with demons or Satan. My point is that the evidence below is completely neutral on this topic. All it may suggest is that some people in Hollywood have some very odd, and possibly rather sinister beliefs. Which I don't think should be considered too controversial, given the existence of Scientology.

I also don't want to implicate Carpenter herself in any of this. For all I know, she is innocent and has no idea how she is being used. There is certainly precedent for this; think of Britney Spears and Michael Jackson. Alternatively, she has been pushed into this role against her will from a young age and is possibly the victim of something akin to Monarch Programming. Or, perhaps even more likely, this is all just confirmation bias and delusion on my part.

TL;DR: There seems to some dark occult symbolism surrounding Sabrina Carpenter, perhaps more so than is usual for Hollywood celebs. 

Unless you live under a rock, you are likely to be aware of the meteoric rise of a pop star named Sabrina Carpenter. She became wildly famous after her sugary, addictive single "Espresso" topped the charts last summer. Perhaps you found her sudden rise to prominence slightly odd. And indeed, there were a number of Spotify users who believed her hit single was being heavily pushed by the platform's algorithms.

But her rise to fame perhaps isn't too surprising. She has been around for a while, with her celebrity career being kickstarted by a supporting role in the Disney comedy Girl Meets World. Bizarrely, there is a Tumblr page dedicated to the hidden symbolism in this series and its forerunner Boy Meets World. I find most of the "evidence" on there pretty tenuous, but you might find tidbits you think are interesting.

It's perhaps not too surprising that she managed to find a place in Hollywood. After all, her aunt is the famous Bart Simpson voice actress and leading Scientologist Nancy Cartwright. In fact, there are even rumours that her aunt and Tom Cruise are trying to force her to become the new poster child of Scientology.

To be fair to Carpenter, she didn't just immediately land a supporting role in a Disney comedy. Before that, she played a bit part in an episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit as a child who is being controlled by a child exploitation network. The episode is titled "Possessed". She also had a bit part in a film called Horns,) where she played the younger version of a girl who is raped and murdered, and then avenged by a man who wakes up with a pair of horns protruding from his head. The horns have special powers that force people to tell him their darkest secrets and desires, and at his bidding, they act upon them. Carpenter attended the film's premiere wearing an Alice in Wonderland outfit.

Carpenter's first album, Eyes Wide Open), was released in 2015. It was barely noticed, and its songs were nondescript, bland, middle-of-the-road, and totally anodyne. The title track, which by no means differed from the tone of the album as a whole, was filmed in the Park Plaza Hotel, which was originally known as "Elks Lodge No. 99"), and was built as a lodge for a secretive Masonic-style fraternity known as the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, which counted a number of extremely powerful people among its members, including six US presidents. But we'll return to this later.

After her debut album, her career remained fairly lacklustre. But in 2019 she released the single "In My Bed", and an accompanying music video. It is an extremely odd video. It features Carpenter in her bedroom, with huge eyes and extremely dilated pupils, her head jolting from side to side like a woman possessed. The room is filled with children's toys, but also two neon lights of naked women, like you might expect to see in a strip club. Then she is seen in a straight jacket, in a room covered in photos of her as a very small child, with three men in suits taking notes around her. An article by The Vigilant Citizen details how this appears to connect to Monarch Programming. He claims: 

Carpenter’s entire act is infused with the occult elite’s agenda. The most obvious proof of this fact is her video In My Bed, which clearly portrays the singer as a mind-controlled slave (to fully understand what is about to be explained, read my article on Monarch programming first).

There’s a lot going on here, especially when one is familiar with the symbolism of Monarch mind control.

First, the room is filled with butterflies of all shapes and sizes. Monarch mind control is named after the monarch butterfly due to its metamorphosis from a caterpillar to a cocoon, to a butterfly. MK slaves also go through a period of metamorphosis which turns them into a metaphoric butterfly … a very sad and broken metaphoric butterfly.

Above Sabrina’s head are several clocks – all displaying a different time. This refers to the complete disorientation in time and space of MK slaves due to trauma and dissociation.

He goes on to describe the straightjacket scene:

Sabrina finds herself in a straitjacket with her eyes still spinning. She is clearly a slave. She is trapped in a room that is obsessively “decorated” with pics of her and at various ages – including baby pics. She is under “their” control since birth.

Around her are four older men in suits who are observing her, taking notes and, at some point, taunting her. These are Sabrina’s handlers – those who handle her MK programming.

The music video for "In My Bed" isn't the only one of hers that has some rather odd connotations. The music video for "Feather" begins with "Sabrina Carpenter" written in a font nearly identical to the one used at the beginning of the horror film Rosemary's Baby, and features Carpenter prancing around a Catholic church in front of the coffins of several young men who have disrespected her. One of the coffins even features a crucifix with "RIP BITCH" written on it. These dancing scenes are intercut with the deaths of those men. One of the men she murders by crushing him in an elevator, his blood trickling out through the doors. The video caused some controversy among the local Catholic community, and resulted in the parish priest being replaced. Carpenter responded to the backlash by joking that "Jesus was a Carpenter". She has also worn a T-shirt with this slogan emblazoned on it on stage.

And then there is "Taste". The music video even features a warning at the beginning, regarding its explicit content and graphic violence. It features Carpenter and Jenna Ortega trying to murder each other over and over again in various horrific ways. This includes impalement, shooting, electrocution, and a chainsaw to the guts, each of which is unsuccessful as they are apparently immortal. Perhaps the most interesting method of violence is the use of a voodoo doll fashioned to look like Carpenter, which Ortega throws on a fire, causing the real Carpenter to be burned alive. 

“In discussing how trauma-based mind-control is done, voodoo must be included as a component. Many of the mind-controlled slaves have had voodoo as part of their trauma, and many had voodoo dolls placed into their Systems. When vows and oaths are made, an object is given to the satanic cult or the Illuminati for the Keeper of the Seals to guard. If the vow is broken voodoo magic can be used against the offender by using the object given in the sealing.”

– Fritz Springmeier, The Illuminati Formula to Create a Mind Controlled Slave

It's not only in these flashy music videos that Carpenter seems to be associated with some rather dark things. Towards the end of last year (2024), her fanbase were in uproar after a YouTuber named Hannah Pearl named her "catfish of the year". The award was given on the basis of a supposedly unflattering makeup-free selfie that Carpenter took. Pearl's tweet, featuring the selfie, went viral as Carpenter fans flocked to defend her. Yet, while everyone was scrutinising this selfie, apparently no-one picked up on the strangeness of the t-shirt Carpenter was wearing in it. Her plain black t-shirt is emblazoned with the quote, "Awake, arise, or be forever fallen". Where could this quote be from? If you are a literature junkie, you might be aware it's from Milton's classic 17th century epic poem Paradise Lost. It is, in fact, a line spoken by Satan to his fallen angels, urging them to be defiant and rise up against God. 

Let's return to that first single, "Eyes Wide Open", filmed in Elks Lodge No. 99. No doubt the first thing that jumps out to you is the song's title, which seems awfully similar to the title of Kubrick's classic film about an elite demonic cult, Eyes Wide Shut. But are there any connections with Carpenter to that film, beyond the bizarre location of the video and the similar name? Well, I suppose the first thing that comes to mind is that her aunt is a leading Scientologist, which is also a shadowy elite cult. And of course Eyes Wide Shut stars Tom Cruise, perhaps the most famous Scientologist of them all. But all this feels fairly tenuous. Is there anything else that might connect her with the film?

The Hollywood director Roger Avary has spoken about how at the end of Eyes Wide Shut, the two main characters Alice and Bill allow their daughter Helena to be taken away by two shady men who have been in the background of various scenes throughout the film. But before this grim ending, Helena looks at an old fashioned pram, which Avary describes as "the Rosemary's Baby bassinet", which he claims is "totally Kubrick saying something". And indeed, it does look very much like the pram featured in the iconic poster for Rosemary's Baby. But what does Helena say when she leans over the pram? She says, "I could put Sabrina in here". Then she runs on and picks up a Barbie. The Barbie in question is the 1996 Sugar Plum Fairy Barbie from The Nutcracker collection.

Let's unpack this a bit. Is there any significance to Helena saying "I could put Sabrina in here"? Well, there is of course the fact that the video for "Feather" begins with Carpenter's name written in the same font and colour as the Rosemary's Baby title. There is also the fact that Carpenter was born only a couple of months before the film's release, so that Helena could be talking about her as if she is a baby on the way. And then there is the story of Rosemary's Baby, which is about a man who allows his child to be born as the Antichrist in return for Hollywood fame. Then there is the fact that the director, Roman Polanski, is a child rapist and is well known to have been interested in the occult. His wife, Sharon Tate, was murdered while she was pregnant, just a year after the release of Rosemary's Baby. Polanski happened to be away at the time. The official story is that the Manson Family murdered Tate and her friends because the previous occupants of the house had wronged him. Some, however, have suggested that Polanski was somewhat involved with the Manson Family. 

Was Carpenter planned like Rosemary's baby is in the film, prepared for months or even years in advance? This is all seems like a fairly big stretch. But what about the fact that the very same year that Kubrick released Eyes Wide Shut, Polanski released The Ninth Gate? Just like Eyes Wide Shut, it's about a clandestine Satanic cult. And just like Eyes Wide Shut, it features a Satanic ritual scene. The scene was filmed in Château de Ferrières, which was built for the Rothschilds, and is famous for its very strange parties. Incidentally, the exterior scene of the Somerton mansion in Eyes Wide Shut, where the Satanic ritual takes place, is Mentmore Towers. James Mayer de Rothschild commissioned Château de Ferrières to be "another Mentmore, but twice the size." And what about the fact that Satan is incarnated in The Ninth Gate as a nameless, young, pretty, blonde woman?

Perhaps this is all confirmation bias. Perhaps I'm seeing patterns where there aren't. But there is one last thing that bugs me. As mentioned, in the final scene of Eyes Wide Shut, after Helena looks at the Rosemary's Baby pram she picks up a Sugar Plum Fairy Barbie doll. The Sugar Plum Fairy is a character in the ballet The Nutcracker, which is about a collection of dolls that come alive. Carpenter, of course, has featured voodoo dolls in her music videos, and indeed she often looks very doll-like. The idea of a "living doll" also seems to resonate with Monarch Programming. But there's something more. In her Netflix Christmas special, A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter, there is a very odd moment near the middle of the special's duration. A scene ends and we are left alone with Carpenter in a kitchen. For no apparent reason, she picks up a knife and stares at its tip as if she is hypnotised. The tune playing in the background?: "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy".

"War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength."

"Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past."

"Sanity is not statistical."

"It was merely the substitution of one piece of nonsense for another."

"Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them."

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

"In the end, the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it."

"If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself."

"The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world. It goes beyond fear of pain or death. It is unendurable, and it varies from individual to individual. It may be burial alive or castration - or many other things."

"Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless. If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face — for ever… And remember that it is for ever. The face will always be there to be stamped upon."

"The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power."

Here we go again.
Iran is “close to building a nuclear bomb.”
The U.S. “might have to step in.”
Israel is “ready to finish the job.”

Heard this before? That’s because Netanyahu’s been pushing the same nuclear scare tactics since the late ’90s. Different decade, same playbook.

He’s been claiming “Iran is 5 years away from a nuke” for over 20 years now.
Nothing happens. No bomb. No proof. Just another excuse to push for war — and guess what?

Donald Trump is now doing the exact same thing.

Trump: The Israeli President of America

He’s following Netanyahu’s script word for word. threatening war with Iran, ripping up nuclear deals, and now going after anyone who dares support Palestine.

People are being fired, silenced, deported, having their student visas revoked, even losing green cards. All just for simply criticizing the Israeli government. They’re not praising Hamas. They’re not talking about Jews. They’re calling out war crimes and getting branded “antisemitic” for it.

And the most ironic part is that. Most Jews in Israel today aren’t even ethnically Semitic — they came from Europe. Palestinians are Semitic. So who’s actually being oppressed?

This isn’t about stopping hate. It’s about killing free speech and using “antisemitism” to cover for apartheid and now, maybe even another war.

Trump acts less like a U.S. President and more like an Israeli agent with presidential powers.
He’s literally carrying out Netanyahu’s plan step by step.

But it’s not just Bibi and Trump — it’s the whole damn system.

Let’s stop pretending this is all one guy’s fault. The problem is bigger. Way bigger.

• It’s the AIPAC-endorsed politicians in both parties who sell their souls for Israeli lobby money.
• It’s the U.S. media that refuses to call out Israel’s aggression or its apartheid policies.
• It’s the Zionist narrative that frames every critic as “antisemitic” while Palestinians are bombed, starved, and caged.

And yeah, Netanyahu pulled the same shit with Iraq too — helping lie us into that war, which killed hundreds of thousands. Same playbook. Different decade. Different target.

So why do Americans keep falling for this bullshit?

Because our leaders aren’t loyal to America — they’re loyal to money and power, and Israel delivers both.

Every time we elect someone funded by Israeli lobbyists, we’re handing over American foreign policy to another country.
We’re letting war criminals dictate who we bomb next.
We’re trading American blood and tax dollars for Israel’s expansionist goals.

And here’s the truth no one wants to say:

As long as we keep electing people who are funded by AIPAC or any Israeli lobbying group

NOTHING will change.

These politicians don’t have America first in their heart.
They have money first in their heart — and that money flows through Tel Aviv.
They will never put your interests above Israel’s. They will always justify the next war. The next lie. The next bombing.

The only way to stop this cycle is to STOP electing anyone who is endorsed or funded by the Israeli lobby.

Red, blue, independent — doesn’t matter.
If they’re in AIPAC’s pocket, **they’re not working for you. They’re not working for peace.
They’re not working for truth.
They’re working for Zionist interests.

It’s time to wake the fuck up.

This is not a joke or exaggeration. Over the last few days, I’ve been served multiple sponsored ads on Facebook for:

Crystal methamphetamine. From a verified Alibaba supplier.

A long-range reconnaissance drone. $108,500. Fully tactical. Also from Alibaba.

Injectable peptides. Labeled “for research only.” Factory direct. Free samples.

A Toyota Land Cruiser double cab pickup. The kind seen in warzones and failed states.

All of these were approved, paid ads from verified business accounts. I did not search for illegal content. I have no history involving drugs or weapons. The most I’ve looked at are fitness tools, industrial equipment, and off-grid systems.

Somehow, that was enough. The algorithm profiled me, parsed my behavior, and decided I was a candidate for narcotics, biochemical enhancers, aerial surveillance hardware, and war vehicles.

It built me a supply chain for a black market empire.

This isn’t a story about dark web activity. This is mainstream. Served to me by Meta. Each ad came wrapped in clean UI, corporate language, and algorithmic confidence.

One ad showed meth crystals arranged in a white dish with a garnish leaf. It looked like a luxury product. Like someone had tried to aestheticize hard drugs for social media consumption.

There are no guardrails here. Whatever filtering system exists at Meta either failed, or worse, silently approved all of it.

If this is what the modern ad ecosystem allows, if this is what a company like Meta is willing to push into your feed when it thinks no one’s watching, then we are so far beyond ethical collapse that we’ve forgotten it ever existed.

Screenshots attached. This is not satire. This is what the internet has become.

Above they say FBI confirmed David Oranchak’s translation of the famous Z340 cipher. The second slide shows that translation. Slide number 3 show’s a statement from Oranchak where he says the shorter cipher which describes Zodiac’s name can only be ‘verified’ if we talk to Zodiac. The same statement is made by our famous ZodiacKilker sub, saying too many possibilities to ever decide without talking to or capturing Zodiac.

Question:,If you have a name and description of a suspect, even if you have many names that you have to widdle down to a few, you can match a name with a description and then see if that person had, opportunity and motive and a relationship with the victim.

That is how we use DNA, that is how police have always done their work.

So, how is random statement with no details confirmed and a 13 character code that gives you a name to search impossible to solve?

They are lying and spitting in your face as if we and you are the dumbest people on the planet. It’s a conspiracy and a cover-up!

Sketches from the infamous B-Thing.

This is disturbing as someone who works in drinking water as an engineer. This is not deregulation in a healthy or sane way. This is just poisoning the public to boost chemical company profits.

Concerning the JFK case, and since we’re on the topic, is anyone familiar with the documentary Everything Is a Rich Man’s Trick ?

I find it particularly interesting as it offers insight into the CIA and the American mafia's involvement in the JFK assassination, and how JFK made himself an enemy of the 'deep state.' However, they never mention the potential Israeli involvement in this case, not even a hint.

I'm posting this because out of all the documentaries I've seen on the JFK assassination, this one struck me as the most legit and well-researched. It goes deep into the CIA, the American mafia and the financial and industrial elites, it really paints a compelling picture of how JFK became an enemy of the deep state.

Yet despite covering such a wide range of plotters from different backgrounds, the documentary doesn't even mention the possibility of Israeli involvement, not even in passing. Given how often that angle comes up in independent research circles, I can't help but wonder: was it overlooked, ignored, or intentionally left out? Curious what others think about this.

Was all for Israel's agenda to this day. That's what I gathered as a consensus. Every war in the 1900s to now was for them. Actually, we can go even further back. People like Napoleon who we see demonized at school was actually fighting the banks. If anything, he was very pivotal in almost stopping the banks' control over Europe since that war had entirely to do with fighting for their economic independence. Why do the banks matter in relation to Israel? The same reason the Federal Reserve matters to Israel.

Anyone notice how few minorities are attending these protests??

What the hell is happening?

I’ve never had some grand sense of purpose. Maybe that used to scare me. Now? It’s clarity. I’m not distracted by power plays or prestige. I’m awake inside a system that’s quietly collapsing.

We’re watching democracy erode—slow enough to ignore, fast enough to lose. Institutions are hollow. Leaders? Who? And the rest of us? We’re just expected to keep our heads down, stay in line, and keep the machine running.

I try limit my media intake to 30 minutes a day. Not to tune out—but to stay standing. Even when the noise is low, fear hums underneath everything. People are exhausted. Dissociated. Flatlined. And somehow, we’ve normalized that.

Why should anyone care what I think? Because I live in the fallout. I’m not a voice from the top—I’m the echo from the ground floor.

We’ve seen the promises break:

WAKE THE FUCK UP!

I’m not here for approval.

I’m here because I still give a damn.

This isn’t a rant. It’s a reckoning.

And I’m done staying quiet.

Would make sense that these could be the tip tops of some other structure underneath? If it were so, what do you think they would find

But the bigger question is why do they vehemently but these discoveries? Shouldn't the world be excited to learn about these things? Specifically speaking gobekli teppe was supposedly the sight of Armageddon (or very near ) and they have been finding crazy things there and now it's a protected heritage site by you guessed it our Israeli brethren.

What if it was all lost in a mud flood? What do we do with that information? Would it truly change anything?

I know this happens a lot but it’s the first time I’ve actually seen it first hand. It’s absolutely wild how normalised thought crimes have become online, Reddit is particularly bad though! I would understand if I actually had said anything hateful not just “guilty by association”. Also the subreddit that banned me is not even a subreddit I have ever looked at!

I feel like I am the only one who is aware of what is going on around me.

6 hours of sitting in classrooms, extra hours for the older students, not to mention hours of homework. Teachers always shut down blinds to block out as much natural light as possible and put on artificial lights everywhere. I've literally seen every teacher do this, every single teacher shuts them down it's like they have been told to do it. Everyone forced to wear polyester uniform which I heard is really bad for you and has microplastics. All the work that we do is basically pointless. Like why do we need to know stuff we will never use in life and get punished if we question the point of it. If people want to have a career in something why do they need to waste 5 years of their life in high school, learning about random subjects that will in no way benefit them. It's like it's been specifically designed to drain all your energy and thinking into things you don't need. The food is a big one aswell, there's always sugar packed food and drinks everywhere and the only healthy thing is a small bowl of fruit which ain't even enough for a toddler. They also removed water bottles recently for the 'environment', forcing you to buy the sugar packed juice. At break and lunch playing football or any sports outside is banned, and students only have access to a concrete field with nothing inside. Does anyone else think the same - that it is designed to destroy us.

It sounds like I'm having a rant but I had to let it out I'm just tired of why nobody questions this. I'm going to college in a few months but I don't know if I should seek an alternative path.

Think about it:

COVID: The liberal class accepted price hikes, business closures, and government control in the name of safety.

Tariffs: The conservative class now accepts rising costs and supply chain disruption in the name of patriotism.

Different justifications. Same outcome: Prices rise, corporate profits explode, wealth consolidates upward, and the people just adjust.

It doesn’t matter which narrative you believe, if the result is the same, then maybe the crisis is just the story.

What if collapse has already been sold to us, just in customized packaging?
