I learned 40+ years ago that most people, especially those in power, are utterly terrified of anarchy, and by terrified I mean a raging morbid uncontrollable phobic reaction.
For about 20 years, for my naiveté, I assumed this was just because they did not know what anarchy was, because they always seemed to be talking about something that wasn’t anarchy, but was dog eat dog until the last dog died of its wounds, and then eventually the penny dropped, the definition of anarchy didn’t matter, anarchy was just a catch all name to mark the end of the current power system.
Of course incumbent in all this is the realisation that those who benefitted from the current power system know that when it ends, there are going to be a lot of dues to settle, because the current power system is unjust in the extreme, so there has been a whole load of spreading around of “you benefitted from this…” memes pushed on to people.
To my mind the entirely fake and state sanctioned and sponsored “useful idiot” terror attacks are just examples of this “you benefitted from this…” “proofs”, here is proof all these raghead muslims hate you, even the ones born here, because you were born with the silver spoon in your mouth as a child of the MIC.
Now get back in line bitch.
The fact is that however many billions of years old the earth is, and however many tens of thousands of years old humanity is, true world spanning cultures require a maximum 7 day journey time from any point on the planet to any other point, and information requires a maximum 24 hours from any point on the planet to any other, because everything else is like trying to fly a plane with rubber control wires, by the time you have had time to react, shit has moved on to the point where your reaction is out of sync.
In this light true world spanning cultures came about in the 1930’s with the advent of the aeroplane and the telex.
In this light, there has only ever been one, the one that started and grew in the USA in the 1930’s, and which just kept growing until the 1980’s.
Prior to the 1980’s there were few people anywhere on the planet who were not aware of the power and reach of the USA, and prior to the 1980’s there were few people anywhere on the planet who would doubt any claim made by the USA, no matter how grandiose it was, I have mentioned before, my dad, an engineer who saw the green machine land in Cornwall and make roads and sewers and everything else as a mere trivial thing on the side, who had tools (I still have a variable pipe die 1/2″ to 4″ he “liberated” from US army engineers) better than anything we had here, who ship anything anywhere in 24 hours and do pretty much anything, if you had told him in the mid seventies that the yanks were going to build a road bridge between the USA and Europe, he’d have said wow, and waited to see how they were going to do it…. because as good a definition as any of the USA back then was a huge thing that could literally do anything that was physically possible, and then paint it in primary colours.
The USA hadn’t just put men on the moon, they had put a fucking four wheel drive vehicle on the moon, and they had done it from a standing start in ten years, and this was all very very recent history prior to the 1980’s.
This was “Empire”, back in the days of the british empire most of the world may well have been pink, but the reality was out grip was tenuous at best, the USA MIC Empire was the real deal, the first one ever in human history.
It was only made possible by technological change, but, technological change did not stop, nor did this “First Empire of Planet Earth” adapt, it stuck to the 1930’s playbook, and thus ensured its own demise.
Starting in the 1980’s the world was treated to lessons, the Empire was not infallible or unbeatable, and as the Empire tried harder and harder to grip jelly, ever more and greater examples came to pass for all to see.
By the end of the 1980’s everywhere outside of the USA people were talking out loud about the USA and its people not being unbeatable, of course this was entirely unseen and unknown within the continental USA, but there came a day late in the 1980’s when the former british empire sent a single vessel to the same port that the mighty US 6th fleet was in.
The vessel was a destroyer, a relatively tiny vessel, and it was carefully chosen for its name, because the whole point of the exercise was to promote tension, and so one day the US 6th fleet is joined in port by HMS Beaver, an american slang word for cunt.
Unknown to the americans, the crew of the beaver have been told that provided they don’t break any local laws that cannot be smoother over by a cash settlement from the pursers safe, and provided nobody gets seriously injured, feel free to mix with the yanks and have some fun.
They have been told this because there were questions raised in admiralty house, for the first time ever, about the quality of personnel in the First Empire military machine, so what better way to find out on the quiet.
What they found scared the crap out of them, so much so that international policy altered, and in the soon to follow “Gulf War 1”, the role of the Royal navy was cut right back, enough to be a player, with much grumbling from the First Empire, but not enough to be more than a bit part player.
Around that time, before Gulf War 1 had really started in earnest, I was offered a job (my engineering background) rebuilding much of what was about to be destroyed, unbeknownst to the recruiter, I had already had a conversation with a retired german diplomat, who had told me it will not be like when britain or germany or anyone else went into africa or india or anywhere else as an empire.
He had a very interesting and pertinent definition, you don’t go in to bomb shit, kill shit, shoot shit, until you have shown you are the baddest guy on the block, he said you go in and bomb shit and kill shit and shoot shit until you have imposed your own currency and it is accepted by all.. so do not go to Iraq to work rebuilding and get paid in US dollars, unless US dollars are the new national currency of Iraq.
He said the only time you should ever go anywhere and work and get paid in another currency is when the government *and* peoples welcome you there to work. That is called being an ex pat.
So I refused the job.
And nearly 30 years have passed, and the world has seen more of the same, more importantly the world has seen what happened when New orleans got flooded, that was the worst PR disaster for the First Empire that ever happened, sure, hurricanes and so on can happen anywhere, but when you can’t respond and rebuild at the end of your own motorways on your own mainland home turf….. contrast the new orleans rebuilding with the japanese tsunami rebuilding.
Outside of the mainland USA many of the sniggers are, that technologically and economically backwards, black at night, north korea is maybe one of the only countries left small enough for the First Empire to take on and not get humiliated by, and even then, maybe they would be better trying their luck at the Gambia, or equatorial guinea, or maybe one of the cook islands….
That the First Empire is in rapid decline is not in doubt, former “little sisters” like israel know the days of relying on big brother First Empire to protect then no matter what they do are numbered.
So we are back to the beginning, and anarchy, and what comes next.
What comes next is acceleration, as long as the First Empire has any power left, it will use it to try to slow or stop the slide, it will grip jelly tighter.
Just as the eastern front bled hitler dry and cost him the war, nato is repeating the same mistakes today, wasting vast resources on a border with someone who is not the enemy of the people in the west, and causing scarcity and shortages everywhere else nato might want to be, and as we all know nato is just the unofficial wing of the First Empire.
Here in the Uk we will often talk of the “dark ages” after the holy roman empire collapsed and left, but the fact is they were anything but dark, and the european renaissance did not grow out of stony ground some hundreds of year later, what the dark ages were (timeline maps of european states and borders on youtube are illustrative) was “anarchy”
Anarchy scares the living crap out of power mongers and control freaks.
The roman empire took a scant 50 years at best to disappear, if we mark 1980 as the start of the decline of the First Empire, by 2030 the entity know as the USA and MIC will be gone… and we here have laws now coming on to the books dealing with electric / IC car sales by 2030, a scant 12 years away… see berlin wall etc etc etc
Who do you think will be the next big kid on the street?
Anarchy as you and I understand would be a nice change, mind.

China:

Agreed. Look at what the IMF, soros et all are saying about China and the future HQ of the IMF. Look at the inclusion of the rmb in the sdr basket. Look at the recent move to the petroyuan and the opening of yuan swap facilities around the globe, not to mention the aiib. Look at the movements of gold from west to russia/china over the past decade.
China’s model of government is desired by the globalists. There will be a push for a global currency soon, and China will be the major economic center after the next reset.

Putting this here:
“Back in the early 1970s, a Stanford psychologist, David Rosenhan, sent 8 volunteers, one of whom was himself, to a number of different mental hospitals around the country. All of the volunteers were completely normal. They made appointments at these hospitals and claimed that they had been hearing voices which said “empty”, “hollow”, and “thud”. All were diagnosed as schizophrenic and admitted to hospital. This became well-known as the Rosenhan experiment.
After the “patients” were admitted, they ceased pretending to hear voices, acted normally, and told the staff that they were fine. In all cases, it took days to weeks to a couple of months before they were released, all with a diagnosis of schizophrenia in remission. Meanwhile, they were prescribed anti-psychotic drugs (which they didn’t take) and confined to the hospital.
The false positive rate was 100%.
After Rosenhan published a paper on this experiment, psychiatrists were outraged that they had been tricked, and the head of a mental hospital challenged Rosenhan to send his volunteers to his hospital, where he said he would readily detect them. Rosenhan agreed. Out of about 200 people over the subsequent several months, the hospital’s doctors decided that 41 of them were definite fakes and another 42 were suspected fakes. However, Rosenhan had sent no one.”
