THE PROBLEM IS THE SOLUTION: Increase in Food Insecurity Invites Return to Nature’s Abundance

May 26, 2022

If you’re like me, you’ve long recognized that the toxic combination of monocultured, pesticided, genetically modified corn, soy, wheat and other grains that get “processed” by adding sugar, chemical preservatives, other toxic ingredients to form packaged products produced by hierarchical corporations that then get distributed over wide distances by gigantic trucks to corporate-owned stores — and sold to Americans, 70% of whom, as of 2022, are either overweight or obese. 

This country has the highest obesity rate in the world.

Let that sink in.

Now couple that with what percentage of Americans are on prescription drugs. I researched this question, and couldn’t find anything current, but in 2013 almost 70% of Americans were on at least one prescription drug. 

I’d be very surprised if that percentage hasn’t gone up, to deal with obesity-related conditions such as heart disease and diabetes, as well as attempts (which often fail) to alleviate anxiety, depression, and insomnia.

Let’s face it, this country is sick. And it’s not just as in the Q post, “these people are sick” (referring to the corrupt “powers that be”), but this entire culture has been infected with “food” and “medicine” that neither nourish or heal. And that’s not even considering the rot that’s set in deeper with the covid con, and now the monkey con, and who knows what else they’re going to try to ram down our sore (from either screaming too much or throttling our rage) throats, or into our feverish, exhausted, data-overloaded brains, or jam into our slack, fattened arms or buttocks — all to bring in the globalist New World Order.

Hell, we’ve already got our New World Order. Ten Companies Own All the World’s Food Brands

Oh, and shall we talk about rapidly rising inflation, that has even cost-conscious chains like Aldi upping their prices 30%?

Okay. Okay. Stop. STOP!

I’ve attempted to describe the problem. Which also happens to be the solution, in the sense that once we embrace the problem deeply enough, we engage not just the logical left brain, but the deeply imaginative right brain, itself connected to the open heart — and we say, how can we do this differently?

THE PROBLEM IS THE SOLUTION

Remember Victory Gardens?

We’re in another world war, folks. Supply chain bottlenecks, rising cost of energy for transportation, detained fertilizer shipments, baby food and other production factories closing — it’s The People vs. the Globalists, and this war is getting more and more real every day.

And not surprising, so is the solution!

The word “localism, ” for example,  is no longer an exotic term.

I can remember, probably 15 years ago, meeting with some folks here in Bloomington Indiana to decide how best to encourage to people to support locally-owned stores. Signs in store windows are important, and we went some way with that here. But in general, we recognized that not until conditions become dire, not until people are forced to pick up on this idea, will they.

So here we are. It’s 2022, and even during the plandemic, in order to stave off the depression caused by forced isolation, people were getting into their back yards and beginning to garden, to grow their own food! Again, the problem is the solution. Bars weren’t open, neither were most restaurants. What to do? How to spend our time? Just on screens? Nature began to look better and better. I noticed more people out on trails in nearby woods (with some even brave enough not to wear “mandated” masks).

So yes, the problem that is the solution here, of food insecurity, is to grow your own food, grow with your neighbors, and/or support your local growers. Let’s see if we can match the 40% of our food our grandparents produced through their own gardens during World Wars I and II, shall we? Let’s see parks and university campuses used to grow food, shall we? Even better, let’s see entire apartment complexes join together in community to grow food on their rooftops, on patios, on their common lawns. Yes, even better, at least to me, is to see entire neighborhoods turned into permaculture paradises, much like we are inspiring here in tiny Green Acres Permaculture Village, inside Green Acres Neighborhood, with a spacious allowing inner culture and porous borders — plus weekly Community Dinners inviting one and all.

I fact, let’s all learn from Detroit!

AND . . . this is the part I wanted to get to today. Let us recognize that Mother Nature is providing food and medicine for us constantly, especially in the “weeds” we have been indoctrinated to eliminate from our gardens.

 

For example, this glorious burdock, growing among the ferns, and beyond the kiwi branches winding up the front porch posts.

For example, lambsquarters, which grows all over the world!

Here it is, out by the back patio. I eat it regularly in my lunch salads, along with dandelion, sorrel, and our Garden Tower lettuces.

Finally, learning how to make our own medicine may become utterly necessary if Dick Durbin (in league with Big Pharma and Big Med) gets his way.

DO WE STILL LIVE IN “AMERICA THE GREAT”? Signs of dissolution: medical, academic, cultural

May 25, 2022

Here I share three posts, each of which documents the continuing, more and more dramatic dissolution of — what shall we call it?

The American Dream?

The (Project for A) New American Century?

America the Great?

Two are essays, long reflections on the loss of ideals, standards, values, in medicine and academia; the other, a devastatingly contextualized report on yesterday’s particularly spectacular likely false flag, this one a lone male shooter who shot at least 19 children and two adults.

The first essay, on medicine, by Dr. Russell Blaylock, a retired neurosurgeon obviously dedicated to Truth, is a long compendium, the dense detail and dot-connecting of which rivals even RFK’s The Real Anthony Fauci, and offers in one fell swoop, just about everything we need to know about the motivation, devastating multi-pronged effects, and ultimate intent of the covid con. LOTS of footnotes. And here’s what’s amazing: this essay was published on an official government site! How did it get by the “fact checkers,” the official censors? Please share far and wide because you know that, unless something has turned the office that this springs from, to decide to allow, for the first time in two years, Truth instead of lies, you know damn well that this post will be taken down, “disappeared;” or as the woke say now, “cancelled.”

COVID UPDATE: What is the Truth?

The second essay, on academia, by the decisively insightful polymath commentator, Martin Geddes, is especially dear to my heart, since my early background was academic. (I awakened to the programming I’d received during the process of preparing to write my dissertation at Boston University, and decided to write about that awakening process, which had the effect of undermining the entire history of western philosophy. Amazingly enough, I succeeded, was granted the PhD. However, I imagine the second person who tried something similar did not succeed. Why? Because the first one to breakthrough an established framework alerts the institution of the need to put new rules in place that forbid that particular horrific infraction to ever again blot the reputation of said institution! (They hope).)

A NEW SPIRITUAL ACADEMIA: The need to reform and refound the intellectual gymnasium

And the third,  a cultural reflection by Bari Weiss on yesterday’s mass shooting in Uvaldo Texas (MK Ultra Manchurian candidate? or just deeply angry and disturbed young man), reminds the reader that, among other mind-blowing stats, there have been 212 mass shootings already this year in the U.S., 27 of them school shootings. One way of interpreting this more and more alarming trend is to say that the globalists are becoming more and more desperate to take guns away from American citizens, and so either instigate, or pump these shootings and the resulting horror to propel well-meaning citizens — who don’t understand that if the government takes away the guns, then only the government will have the guns — to beg for gun laws.

Now if governments were both limited and benevolent, that would be okay. But national governments are proving themselves to be decidedly not benevolent, and like all organized top down systems created by humans, they tend to both corruption and indefinite expansion — a perspective clearly showing itself to any thinking person now, as the swamp gets stirred up to the point where it actually begins to drain.

As of 2019, this nation was one of only three countries with second amendment rights built into their constitutions: the U.S. , Venezuela, and Mexico. The other two give the right to own a gun; ours is the only one to include the right to bear arms.

America the Great?

Listen to this. From 2011.

I wonder how the lyrics would need to change now . . .
