Who Will Be The Next Scapegoat?
Eighthman:
Now that the soft coup against the President is nearly complete, I do wonder who the Ruling class will pick as the next scapegoat to Blame Everything On.
They already "did" Muslims and there are no more Mid East nations that can be cheaply invaded. If the financial system shuts down, the Bankers will demand that attention be focused elsewhere ( as they did after 2008). They need a domestic enemy to get rid of annoying Rights under the Constitution.
I see one "mouthpiece" for the Deep State declaring that "domestic terrorists" are the priority ( Cuomo - CNN) and a broke US can't threaten foreign nations - unless the Elite want to look pathetic ( believe it or not, I read about somebody trying to blame Charlottesville somehow on Russia !)
What are we left with? Alt-Right? Alt-Left? Muslim Brotherhood? Neo-Nazis? I see no good choices for them since everybody is a part of someone's voting base. This is very tricky because, if Civil War was triggered, who runs most of the Federal government and the military and most states and has the most guns? (Hint: bye, bye Democrats) I'm sure they'll come up with something..... !
The Seeker:
Your "Elite" are pathethic 8) and don't have to worry about the way they look
Eighthman:
They needed 9/11, didn't they? They needed the Russians as an excuse, too.
This is realpolitik stuff, straight out of "1984". The Elite always have a narrative to maintain control.

This guy makes some powerful observations. He notes that 'something snapped' in the US collective consciousness and he also observes that people he used to respect seem to have become polarized and crazy. I loved reading guys like Robert Reich - who seems to have lost his mind recently.
Folks, something has happened........ I seriously wonder if there is some specific chemical or physical cause we haven't discerned yet that is making people act this way. It has gotten that weird. Weirder still is that no one seems especially worried about it - or seeing anything odd.
To review, the US is threatening war all over the globe - and just added Venezuela to the list. At the same time, the nation faces a debt limit showdown in one month before it runs out of money while Congress can't seem to agree on anything - except a near unanimous vote pushing for more war.. There is sudden anger over civil war statues ( out of nowhere). There is extreme anger over what words the President did or didn't use about a riot. Should I go on?
During the Middle Ages, Europeans were hit with a bizarre "illness" in which masses of people danced themselves to death. AFAIK, this is still a mystery. What sort of madness have we fallen into now?

Hi Eighthman,
I found this forum by accident (I found this site by accident, I think??) I have had a interest in the esoteric and unusual since I was a teenager, I don't recall what it was exactly that set me off - I do recall reading about UFO's and Barnie and Betty Hill, Casper Howser (possibly wrong spelling), twins raised by wolves, Spring heeled Jack back when I was 13 and 14 and 15 , in the mid 70's .. (oh so last century) :-)
Dad told me to be more grounded and pay less attention.. but then 6 years later told me a ghost story that happened to him Eh? wtf??
I never shook off the fact that there was more to this perceived reality than spoken about, and a lot of things that occurred at a global level .. the Cold War, the Falklands conflict, the 1st Gulf War, Gulf War syndrome, Afghanistan, G W Bush elected, 2nd Gulf War etc etc , seemed to be staged, possibly the reporting of the above made it seem so staged, I don't know, still don't have a answer as to why, for me it all looks like it is part of some long term plan..
I have said on other threads that the whole Russia is still a MAJOR threat to "western democracy/NATO/free world" doesn't ring true on any level
I mean, look at the Russian Order or Battle, run a summary on their conventional arms.. compared to the USA/UK/France and Germany armed Forces totals.. Russia has 1 Flat Top Aircraft Carrier.. 1! (yup we have two massive brand new and totally useless flattop Aircraft carriers which I think get A/C in 2020 ?? lol .. what idiot signed off £6 Billion spending on two new Aircraft Carriers that are essentially no use to anyone?
Of course there is the nuclear arsenals that exist in the background, but really, what lunatic would consider using them??.. did someone mention Trump Vs N.Korea..?? Ok I could be hugely wrong with that one :-/
Anyway going back on topic, from this side of the pond and too me, it does look as though the reported news is that the USA Gov is looking for a fight with anyone and everyone - including their own citizens - :-/
I am 55 and as I try and make sense of what is apparently reality of the here and know, I am left feeling that this is becoming more and more bizarre .. .. if we look at the amount of national debt that the UK and USA owe.. is it something like 1.5Trillion UK £sterling.. and $US18Trillion?? I checked what this looks like as actual visual amount, using the US debt -
http://www.businessinsider.com/how-can-you-even-visualize-what-the-us-national-debt-would-look-like-stacked-in-100-bills-2011-7?IR=T
How the F.... is any country going to repay that or even the 1.5Trillion the UK owes?? - it is never, ever going to happen IMHO
Then I looked at the simulation theory hypotheses -
Which all left me with even more questions than answers :-?
I did think at one time I might possibly have been in a very small majority of people who question what is really going on.. but when I talk to many associates, friends etc, it seems that many of us are in the same boat by way of thinking and observing the world around us, maybe it is that reporting of this world has become more prevalent and in actual fact nothing has changed but we receive the news faster than before ? from my perspective it seems that world and events in general are become at best weird and not explainable and at worst we are rapidly "racing the next extinction"
And bitcoin.. what the ???
Cheers all,
A bemused and perplexed Fansongecho -
PS, have a class weekend :-)
