Thu 02 Mar: The People's Voice - Work2Do - Mind Death - Health Handover - Webs Of Orgs - Distractions - Citizen Moves: Every offer has been made, the cords are all cut, and the intensity is going to a new level. Mind death is a terrible thing to watch. Showcasing real journalism or the lack thereof. Facades, fake narratives and the orchestration of everything. The Milgram experiment on a global scale. Sometimes the people need to sweat a little. Removing, obfuscating, confusing and manipulating. So many martyrs in the dark. A typical agency strategy. AI that's non-bilogically merged. Say what? Oaths actually matter. Controlling your healthcare means owning your own DNA. There is so much for informed citizens to do. The Crocker family at home and abroad. I'm sorry, remittances for who? The queen of Sheba want you. Do not underestimate the importance of city mayors. The people are getting small glimpses of what is actually happening.

Thu 30 Dec: Our Faith - Obsessions - RINO Racket - Insane Inc. - Termite Brain - Clique Bait - Servile Base: Separating the target population from faith is essential for tyranny. They must always wear the common man disguise. It's usually someone else's fault with them. Do the R's actually run the D's? An anonymous story and a common target. The fruit of our work. When lights shine, people take ownership. Joining groups to protect ourselves. Are we really just a market share? The true meaning of secularism, and it's related conceptual confusion. Are we talking about AI software here? It's not a top down brain. They want us to lose our beliefs, because that elevates the now. It's spiritual warfare and nothing less. As the survivors we will rise above the masses of the faithless and their dedication to blind obedience. by The Tore Says Show
