The (Not So) Brave New World

People have been predicting the Zombie Apocalypse for years and they have all been labelled as conspiracy nuts.  Funny thing is though, the zombies are now completely surrounding us and no one is noticing.  I am sure you have seen them. I am sure you know many of them.  A group of them in a restaurant, not talking but all staring and swiping their phones. A line of them waiting for their umpteenth booster shot. A lone zombie walking along a street but never looking at the trees, the people, the blue sky…… just their phone. That zombie driving by himself but still wearing their mask.    The ones that endlessly repeat the headlines of the day but don’t understand any of it. The ones that want to argue about how many genders humans can be and how using the correct pronouns are so important in our society. Or the ones that believe that by buying an electric car we will save the whole planet. By eating less, by breeding less, by breathing less……. They are everywhere....

The endgame is fast approaching.  The unfolding script shows a strong likelihood that a US civil war type scenario will take place in the very near future. In the wake of the Clinton email coverup, the hate filled and divisive presidential campaign, endless police murders and now the Dallas sniper attack, a country that was already in its death throes through wealth inequality and Big Brother style government surveillance and control, is rushing headlong into unbridled civil unrest. The tension is at a level not seen since Independence and we are but one action away from armed rebellion and armed "response". Both sides have been preparing for this for some time. People are "prepping", gun sales are booming and splinter groups are forming.  An armed water cannon in action. The Government has also been preparing for the inevitability of rebellion. They knew that eventually, the people would take a stand and say "Enough!", so l et...

The props are all in place. The players have learned their lines. The finale is ready to begin. After years of planning and careful execution, the endgame is finally within reach and coming into focus. The Finale has begun. Is this the End or the Beginning? As with all major productions, there are the main players, co stars, bit players and extras. If we take a brief look at what parts are being played at present, it is easy to identify the major players - the US, UK/Europe and Russia. The co stars include Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Australia and so on. The bit players may include the likes of Ukraine, Egypt, North Korea, Iran and a long list that won't even make the final credits. The extras are too numerous to mention but they have been called up as required to play their role, make their statement, pledge their support or simply to make up the numbers. These players have been performing their allocated parts on queue and keeping strictly to the script.  G...

Don't Believe What They Want You To Believe! We live in a world that creates the illusion that we have freedom and choice. But the information we receive is controlled, our communications are recorded and are behaviours are monitored. We are fed a constant stream of propaganda in the guise of entertainment and news so that we will believe what they want us to believe. Those seeking information outside of mainstream media have turned to the internet where a myriad of alternative sites provide facts, opinions and truth.  But we now know that search engines are compromised, sock puppets, shills and trolls lurk on almost every web site and click farms manipulate the reviews, likes and hits. So how can we be sure who is telling the truth and who is merely a puppet tool of the system? Can we easily identify the puppets from the purveyors of truth. Most believe that Edward Snowden, who was once a US surveillance asset, is now hiding in Russia after leaking sensitive info...

Our moon still retains many mysteries that science does not explain. Although science proposes many theories, they fail to answer all the anomalies identified. The theory that it was once part of Earth was proven false once moon rocks were analysed. That it formed from left over debris from Earth's formation was also disproved as the greater magnetic field would always attract the debris, thus leaving nothing from which the moon could form. Evidence also exists to suggest that the moon is far older than Earth. Another popular scientific theory is that the moon was somehow "captured" by the Earth’s gravitational attraction but no evidence exists to support this theory. Isaac Asimov, summarised it best - "It’s too big to have been captured by the Earth. The chances of such a capture having been effected and the moon then having taken up nearly circular orbit around our Earth, are too small to make such an eventuality credible." Our moon is the only ...
