All The Old World Systems Are Being Deliberately Torn Down

As we approach the holiday season many people turn to thoughts on tradition, heritage, principles, duty, honor and family. They consider the accomplishments and even the failures of the past and where we are headed in the future. For most of the year, the average American will keep their heads in the sands of monotony and decadence and distraction. But during this time, even in the midst of the consumption frenzy it has been molded into, people tend to reflect, and they find joy, and they find worry.

What perhaps does not come to mind very often though are the institutions and structures that provide the "stability" by which our society is able to continue in a predictable manner. While many of these institutions are not built with the good of the public in mind, they often indirectly secure a foundation that can be relied upon, for two or three generations, while securing power for the establishment. The problem is, the establishment is never satisfied with a static or semi-peaceful system for very long. They are not satisfied by being MOSTLY in control, they seek total control. Thus, they are often willing to create chaos and crisis and even tear down old structures that previously benefited them in order to gain something even greater (and more oppressive for the rest of us).

The official Thanksgiving holiday, for example, did not really begin as a homage to the colonial settlers and pilgrims of America's birth and their struggles to build a new life.  While George Washington did proclaim a "Day of Thanks" in 1789, the model for Thanksgiving began far later, in 1863 as the Civil War was raging. It was the Civil War that upset the traditional balance of power between the states and the federal government, nearly annihilating the nation and asserting federal power as unquestionable for decades to come. A moment of great chaos which destroyed old institutions (like the 10th Amendment) but gave establishment elitists even more control in the end.

In Abraham Lincoln's proclamation for the Thanksgiving holiday, he stated: "In the midst of a civil war of unequaled magnitude and severity ... peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed and harmony has prevailed everywhere, except in the theater of military conflict."

This may sound like a rather delusional claim on Lincoln's part as we look back now at that time period, especially for those who understand how much freedom was actually lost in the process. But this is what the establishment does — it provides some security and some stability for a time, then suddenly rips it away to frighten the masses into conforming to increased centralization, then it returns that security and stability afterwards as a reward for our compliance.

In 1864, Lincoln gave a second proclamation for a Thanksgiving holiday, stating that: "I do further recommend to my fellow-citizens aforesaid that on that occasion they do reverently humble themselves in the dust." Now, I sometimes wonder if Lincoln was referring to reverence for God, or reverence to the power structure which was about to give back some of the predictability and tranquility it had taken away?

Well, America has enjoyed another period of relative calm in terms of institutional peace and most citizens have grown rather used to the idea that this calm is somehow the norm. However, it is becoming ever more clear that another shock to the system is coming, this time through domestic AND international events, and some of the old world structures we are used to seeing may not exist afterwards. Here are just a few...

NATO

The cold war era defense alliance between multiple Western nations is on the verge of breaking apart. Turkey, a key NATO ally in projecting power across the Middle East, has undergone a dramatic and aggressive shift towards increased totalitarianism recently. This has all been in the name of stopping a "coup," which is rather bewildering because there is almost no evidence of a coup actually being planned or attempted.

Ever since, Turkey has launched a campaign of anti-western sentiment and is embracing closer economic and military ties with Russia. Recep Erdogen's chief adviser has publicly called for Turkey's membership in the NATO alliance to be reconsidered.

At the same time, two dozen European nations have signed a defense pact this month, seeking to build a centralized European military and end dependency on the U.S. and NATO.

The old world military order is being upended. But to what goal? As stated earlier, the establishment is shaking up our conceptions of what is safe and secure. They are taking away the carrot to make way for the stick. When all is said and done, the goal would be a renewed interdependency between nations to a greater degree and a reduced and hobbled U.S. populace more easily frightened into submission.

OPEC

As I examined extensively in my article "Saudi Coup Signals War And The New World Order Reset," there is a vast change coming to the dynamic in the Middle East and specifically involving OPEC pillars like Saudi Arabia. The old order of oil trade and stability is about to crumble and be replaced with something much less agreeable to the U.S. economy.

It is important to remember that while oil and gas only make up about 10 percent of international trade, these are perhaps the most important commodities in the industrial world. Energy from petroleum sources is a root feeding all other trade and production. The fact that the dollar has been inexorably attached to this energy and production has allowed the U.S. a level of economic advantage that is perhaps unprecedented.

As multiple OPEC nations begin to question the validity of the dollar as the petrocurrency, and Saudi Arabia leads the way towards bilateral deals with Russia and China, it is imperative that we ask ourselves how much stability we can count on in the future of our currency? We also need to look at the systems that are being staged to take over from the dollar, including the IMF's SDR currency basket system and ask ourselves who is really benefiting from the derailment of old world dollar dominance?

Cash And Anonymity

While fiat monetary systems are an abhorrent creation that destroy economies slowly over time, cash at least has the advantages of being anonymous and existing in a physical space - hopefully your pocket.  Unfortunately, current trends indicate that even these small consolations are about to be taken away.

Over the past several years, cryptocurrencies based on blockchain technology have been touted in the liberty movement as the end all be all solution to central bank corruption and control.  They were going to decentralize everything, and perhaps even collapse the banking system as we know it.  These fantasies have so far been proven to be just that - fantasies.  The primary investors and supporters of blockchain technology and cypto have turned out to be the international banks themselves.  Globalist pillars like Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan are working fervently to push varying incarnations of the blockchain, and the goal is becoming increasingly clear:  To eliminate all physical transactions in the near future and make digital systems the preeminent method of commerce.

I do not think very many people realize how world changing and catastrophic this development will be if it is allowed to continue.  Cryptocurrencies were promoted as a means to stop international banking power, and now they represent a whole new level of centralization.  The death of anonymity in trade means the death of individual freedom.  It is that serious.

East/West Economic Order

Most alternative analysts have observed the economic power shift over the past 10 years from the West to the East. China is now the largest exporter/importer in the world, and is set to surpass the U.S. as the number one economy on the planet in the next couple of years. We have also seen a slow but methodical decoupling from the U.S. dollar as the world reserve currency. But, what many analysts mistake as a "positive move" by the East away from Western control is actually a deliberate dismantling of the old monetary order by the globalist establishment with the intent of creating a new world order.

As I have outlined and heavily evidenced in numerous articles, eastern powerhouses like Russia and China are quite public and open about their desire for a new monetary system, NOT under their control, but under the control of the IMF using the SDR basket as a bridge. Once again we see that the deconstruction of the old is almost always pursued to the benefit of the same people that have always been in control.

American Civility

Here at home, divisions have become extremely pronounced in the past few years. There was a time, not long ago, when the primary intention of political ideologues was simply to "win elections" and gain influence over societal norms through legislation. Today, the goal of ideologues is to outright destroy their political opponents by any means necessary, including lies, violence and subterfuge. The political Left in particular has, in my opinion, reached a point of no return in this regard.

The level of zealotry that has been achieved through "social justice" propaganda and cultural Marxism is staggering. There is no logic or reasoning with these people. They are essentially a cult. And while a large percentage of leftists claim they do not necessarily agree with the methodology of these cultists, they do nothing to stop them and often go along quietly with their objectives.

This zealotry and insanity designed to snuff out conservative principles and wreak havoc on American heritage is dangerous. Not because it will be victorious, per se, but because it has the potential to drive conservatives to opposite extremes and into the arms of a totalitarian government response.

When one side reaches a point of zero-tolerance for the ideals or even the existence of the other side, there is a potential for civil unrest. When both sides reach a point of zero tolerance for existence of the other, war is probably coming.

Of course, there should not be "two sides," but as many sides as there are individuals. And by merely observing the non-aggression principle and refusing to apply force to others except in self defense, much of these divisions could be defused. But presenting this solution is easy, making it a mainstay of our culture is another thing entirely.

The Old And The New Belong To Us

These holidays should not be a celebration of luck, which is what they have become. We should not be thankful for one more year without total crisis because the establishment "allowed us" to have it. If something "new" needs to be constructed within our societal framework, then it should be a change in our mentality in terms of how we view the stability of the old world.

These holidays should become a celebration of our own self reliance and independence. A reflection on how we provide our for own stability and continue our traditions. The existing and planned structures of establishment elitists should play no part in how we reflect and set our course. These systems should not matter. We should not need them.

What does matter? Conscience, freedom, family, responsibility, self reliance and integrity. The best traditions are built on these things. Everything else is a fiction, an illusion of solid ground under our feet that can be taken away at any moment by people who would have us abandon all that matters just to get that poisoned ground back again.

sex allegations - to what end?
written by judge dred , November 22, 2017

Hi Brandon,

Great article as usual. Forgive me for hijacking this first comment but I've been wanting your opinion on this.

The mainstream is feeding this sex allegations frenzy. And while I'm glad to see these asshats go down, the manner in which they are being taken down (court of public opinion) and the fact that the media is feeding this frenzy by reporting on it continually, makes me think this is to further some goal. But I can't figure out what it is, and I don't think it's simply more "white men are evil" propaganda. This seems too pointed, too concerted, to timely.

What do you think they are pushing with this?

Crypto trap
written by Craig Mouldey , November 22, 2017

I'm really quite amazed by otherwise intelligent, well-informed people, jumping on the cryptocurrency bandwagon, thinking this will finally free them from the international banking cabal. These bankers have been executing their control for a very long time. How do we know they aren't the ones who really created this? This is a means to create a cashless society, controlled by them.

Euro Area
written by stevenguinness , November 22, 2017

Brandon, what's your view on current events in the Euro Area? Recently we've seen the Czech Republic and Austria move towards 'populist' leaders, Angela Merkel's attempts at forming a rainbow coalition fail and the declaration of independence in Catalonia. Backstopping all this has been renewed calls from the EU commission for widespread reforms, particularly on an economic level.

Next year will probably see another German election in which aspects of the media are playing up as an opportunity for the AfD to gain more seats in the Bundestag. The Italian elections will also take place where the Five Star Movement are polling high. Then there is the continuation of the Brexit process.

Do you see the European Union surviving in its current make up or could a greater push be underway to pull down the union as a route towards further centralisation?

Well, my theory might be a little outside the norm on that issue. But, I've noticed that MOST of the people caught up in these "sexual misconduct" allegations are leftists, or leftist icons. In my view this is part of a strategy I warned about before and after Trump's election - namely the strategy to throw leftists to the wolves, shift the American populace into greater support for the Trump White House, and over time push conservatives into a totalitarian mindset.

Yes, that probably sounds rather complex. But I would say this is an extension of the hobbling of the traditionally leftist media. And at the same time, you have the leftists being pressured to devour their own icons because "male sexual aggression" (basically doing anything sexual around a woman is now aggression). While a minority of the accused do seem to have committed some borderline or fully criminal acts, many of them did essentially nothing all that shocking unless we are going to apply puritanical standards.

So, the claims that this is the left imploding on itself are partly correct, but at the same time we have a deliberate diminishing of the left to make way for "the rise of conservatives and populists". When the banking establishment pulls the plug completely on the US economy and Trump initiates martial law, who do you think will get the blame for all the calamities that will inevitably occur?

@Steven

I have long felt that the EU trend indicates a partial breakup of the union, but that the remaining countries would form an even more centralized system along with an official European military. I think that much of Europe will begin distancing itself from the US economically and militarily and establish stronger ties to Russia and China (as Germany has already been doing).

I also still believe at least one more major EU nation will have a Brexit-style event. Perhaps it will be Italy, it's hard to say. Measuring the public sentiment in Europe is difficult without being there. My prediction on the Brexit vote was based on months of sifting through UK media and video to get a sense of what was being hidden. But at least with Britain the data was all in English and I didn't have to deal with translations by middlemen in the MSM.

The partial breakup of the EU would of course be a catalyst for greater centralization down the road. The evidence indicates that the globalists are seeking to launch the next phase of their economic "reset" in 2018, and that they plan to finish their project by 2030.

Great work as usual, Brandon. Your thought processes are amazingly sophisticated, especially for a youngster.

I do think, however, that this does not quite get it:

"This zealotry and insanity designed to snuff out conservative principles and wreak havoc on American heritage is dangerous."

I would say that it is more like the Khmer Rouge. These Critical Theory Nihilists, more than just wanting to destroy "conservative principles," really want to totally deconstruct Western Civ. and replace it with that which even they cannot define or articulate clearly. Scary.

Since destruction of... is the goal, there really is nothing productive after that. I know we go thru these paradigm shifts periodically and with unpredictable results, but this one could be a wave too big to surf.

Yes, the year 2030 seems to pop up consistently in the UN's "Agenda 21" sustainable development program. Saudi Arabia is also instituting a "Vision for 2030" in which their currency is decoupled from the US dollar and they are less dependent on oil exports. The IMF is also an integral part of the Agenda for 2030.

Society is made up of individuals and individuals tend to seek prosperity and stability. The natural state of the individual man is one of relative peace, and thus so is the natural state of society. Chaos erupts through manipulation and artificial scarcity. Society does not go "supernova" often without the help of an organized conspiracy.

It is important to remember that most events are NOT random or coincidental. This is the great lie of our time.

I did nothing of the sort, and claiming I did so by "omission" is simply another way of using a garbage strawman argument. Typical Alinsky-style nonsense by someone desperate to make an argument when they don't have one.

In fact, I point out that conservatives are vulnerable to such mindsets, but it is the LEFT that is displaying that abhorrent behavior in spades RIGHT NOW, not the Right. Shall we compare zealotry and insanity on either side today and see who comes out on top by far? I thought not.

Those stubborn facts
written by DerHundistlos , November 22, 2017

"MOST of the people caught up in these "sexual misconduct" allegations are leftists, or leftist icons."

How about some facts to support your claim. Here is a partial list of hundreds of Republican sex offenders: https://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x1709387

On a personal note, watch the shocking Discovery Channel/BBC documentary posted to YouTube titled, “Conspiracy of Silence” about the widespread sexual abuse of the boys at Boys’ Town by numerous national Republican politicians and wealthy financial donors (Note: my cousin was sexually abused by these perverts when he was 14/15 and was so disturbed that he committed suicide at age 17- he was bright, athletic, kind, and good looking with his whole life in front of him). You will hear former Republican Nebraska State Senator and chairman of the state committee charged with investigating the affair, Loran Schmit, state that the pedophilia reached the highest levels of the Republican Party. Despite tremendous pressure from the Reagan Whitehouse and RNC to bury the scandal, Senator Schmit refused to be intimidated. The senator was so shocked and disgusted by the findings of the investigative committee that he resigned from the Republican party and returned to farming. Thank you, Senator Schmit, for your integrity.

The Republican National Committee attempted to whitewash the Boys’ Town scandal by purchasing the documentary’s publication rights for a monumental sum; fortunately, a few copies were leaked before the evidence could be destroyed. Sadly, few people are aware of the Boys’ Town tragedy, which is why I am doing everything possible to make the public aware of the facts.

Yet another Strawman argument. Where did I claim that "Republicans" have not been accused of sexual misconduct in the past? Also, I thought we were talking about zealotry and insanity, not sex allegations that may or may not be true. Stay on topic, drop the Alinsky tactics (because they will not work on me) or there is really no point to this discussion.

Good catch Brandon, and it's more than a little bit bothersome that DerHundistlos was using "Conspiracy of Silence" to make his claims.

Anyone researching that movie and that era would find that sexual deviance - and especially pedophilia - cut across party lines.

That said, it also troubles me that these recent sexual misconduct allegations have been against mostly Democrats, when this stuff has always crossed *all* lines: party, age, region, gender etc.

I think that what is going on is a deliberate action by the elites to sacrifice an arm in order to save the body.

Also, the fact that most of those accused so far have been heterosexuals and not pedophiles, which is the FAR greater problem as revealed by John DeCamp (who features prominently in the movie "Conspiracy of Silence") and others who have actually been in politics and seen it all first-hand further makes me wonder what the true purpose of these 'revelations' really is...

...except, um, no. It is ALWAYS redirection and distraction from the TRUTH. And the truth ALWAYS wins, in the end.

Sure, I agree with this statement, but why not identify who controls the IMF....is it not a small group of families within the British Empire that have controlled the means of money for the past couple hundred years? Evidence suggests that it is and as their wishes for a one world government come to fruition with the dismantling of the U.S.,...THEIR CONTROL of the monetary system appears to be challenged by Chinese and Russian power. Maybe the British Oligarchs are only pretending to be willing to share in a basket of currencies while deviously planning for a nuclear strike and eliminate competition. I guess we'll find out eventually.

No, they are not British. They are globalists that have no loyalty to any one nation. In fact, they are of multiple nationalities, and China and Russia are working directly with the IMF and BIS towards the goal of a one world system run by those same groups. There is no "challenge" to their system, except by common people. Your hyperfocus on the British roundtables is blinding you to the bigger picture. Much like the people that claim the globalists are all "jews" or "zionists". This is simply not true.

written by Eddie spaghetti , November 27, 2017

When I refer to the "British Empire" I'm speaking in behalf of the Globalists as you like to call them, that's fine. They may not be all Jewish that's besides the point. The point I'm trying to make is that for the last two hundred years or more the British Empire has controlled the International monetary system straight out of the city of London. There were no Chinese or Russian Globalist going back not even a hundred years ago. So Globalism has changed all that and there's some new members at the table but not necessarily IN THE CLUB that's was established so long ago. I've read some articles that claim that the Chinese Silk Road Project poses as a threat since it's being built with Chinese money. Something that the CLUB of old money families don't have anything to do with or control over despite them working closely with the IMF. The IMF is controlled by the same club with old family money. Going further, this old club of money controlled most of the worlds resources through geo-politics for many years.

I'm not trying to give you a history lesson, I'm sure you know all this. The club these days don't have the kind of control over the worlds resources or geo-political moves that it once had. Maybe in a indirect way through the IMF but that's it, so they're forced to comply for the moment that is until the nukes start flying back and forth.

Crypto Currencies

Then in a recent interview on USAWatchdog.com Greg Hunter interviewed Danielle DiMartino Booth who was a former Federal Reserve insider who said the following:

"What scares me about Bitcoin is the central bankers are studying it to figure out how the blockchain works. . . .They are going to be CONTROLLING OUR SPENDING with blockchain technology that is being perfected in the crypto currency universe.”
