Deep State continues harassing Scott Ritter — thereby demonstrating how tyrannies invite getting themselves guillotined

Let's pretend that you are a guillotine manufacturer

 

What could be better for your head-chopping business than Scott Ritter's scary account of the FBI's bank-based impoverishment of whistleblowers like him?

Notice in Ritter's account . . .

 

. . . that the FBI's initiators of the decades-long attack on him are secret and not accountable to anyone.

 

Yet in spite of that non-accountability and lack of due process of any kind, dark forces like them have been made unopposably powerful by one of Congress's many idiotically conceived national security laws.

 

What is happening to Ritter is a searing vignette of the fascist tyranny that the American Security State has become.

 

 

What might happen next?

 

If 'you' (for instance) oppose genocide, endless wars, national destruction and being blood-sucked — that last taking place so as to finance all three forms of pillaging — then you are likely to become the American Deep State's next cash-robbed victim.

 

 

Consider the larger picture

 

As a student of history, decades ago, I wondered what explained bloody excesses like the Reign of Terror phase of the French Revolution.

 

Scott Ritter's story answers that question.

 

Normal people get to the point where tyrants, and their minions, become the Satanic bane of human existence.

 

Fury drives the public overreaction that follows.

 

 

The 'natural' progression goes this way

 

Terror initiated by tyrannically strong governments begets a countervailing terror from a handful of individually strong people.

 

Those individually strong people lead 'we've had enough' elements of power-lacking populations.

 

Mao Zedong (Mao Tse-tung) was an example of both prongs of such a conflict.

 

The United States is far along this trajectory today. Political conflict is deliberately being inflamed by the Globalist Oligarchs, who run the world.

 

These avaricious Fat Cats intentionally use the American Deep State — comprised predominantly of knee-jerk paranoids and power-worshippers — to oppress and blood-suck We the People.

 

We the People are mainly comprised of easily psyoped (here a verb) — innately belligerent, colossally ignorant, often unthinking — folk.

 

As a consequence of those less than admirable group characteristics, the US  population is easily divided into hostile groups by intentionally provocative Deep State-sponsored propaganda.

 

Those intentionally exacerbated conflicts keep We the Rabble distracted away from recognizing the mass enslavement and impoverishment processes that are — much more meaningfully — in progress.

 

Oligarchs do no care which side, Deep State or Rabble, carries their desired terror out. Just so long as the associated chaos eventually scares masses of mildly normal people.

 

Fear will prompt We the People into passively accepting becoming the equivalent of liberty-deprived ants.

 

Ants, who will obediently serve the Leeching Oligarchy, while that same Oligarchy sucks our carapaces (so to speak) hollow.

 

 

The moral? — I would like to avoid a Reign of Terror . . .

 

. . . whatever its political direction.

 

Historically, so did this nation's Founders.

 

The US constitution and its Bill of Rights were the result the Founders' efforts to head off unnecessary death, destruction and tumult.

 

By now, we should be wondering why the Constitution's liberty-protections are being enthusiastically cast aside by virtually the entirety of the American republic. Especially so, without some obviously better form of governance being on the visible horizon.

 

Be curious. Connect dots.

 

Developing conscious awareness is the first step in reclaiming what was once good about the United States' constitutionally required liberty-protections.

 

Taking up arms — without insightful brains to go with them — is a useless endeavor.

 

Raging forms of predatory nihilism are not the answer.

 

However, the precise use of We the People's due process-sponsored guillotines just might be.

 

The constraining characteristic of fear, after all, goes both ways.
