STRENGTH OF LOCAL COMMUNITY
We could recognize the strength and integrity of local communities. This is the reality that must be challenged by hierarchy in order for hierarchical Establishment to mount supremacy and promote their own interests.

Now, like the regional trade agreements that replaced the WTO, the World Health Organization is trying to become a mini WTO just for the pharmaceutical industry to override national laws on the safety-testing and regulation of drugs and vaccines–via pandemic Emergency Use Authorizations.–end of organicconsumers info–
Centralization upholds principles of capitalistic hierarchical Establishment wherein oligarchs huddle—-https://popularresistance.org/the-maasais-peaceful-fight-over-their-homeland/ –“The perpetrators of these evictions are strong men and women,” says Denis. “We are fighting top officials, but also big institutions like UNESCO that made wrong recommendations. It really requires sacrifice and determination.”Throughout the decades, eviction of the Maasai from their ancestral lands has been an incredibly thorny issue. The government has envisioned turning Tanzania’s northern region into several game reserves dedicated to hosting foreign elite hunting clubs. The Ortelo Business Corporation, which is owned by the United Arab Emirates royal family and has been involved in hunting excursions in Tanzania for many years, declined to comment.“Under Magufuli [Tanzania’s previous president], the country was at the U-Turn in democratic development,” Joseph says. “Everyone succumbed to him, except the Maasai, because we never depended on anyone but ourselves.”–end of popularresistance info–
On a continuum capitalism and especially due to greed and corruption in governance, becomes organized crime and/or fascism—-From Avaaz — https://secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/amazon_emergency_loc/?bvXZtbb&v=140509&cl=19429774379&_checksum=737ce19d7af23bb9c1d9647dd9fa1c57538acafecdf84dcc16553789ac58 684d —A 12-year old girl from the Yanomami Indigenous community was allegedly raped and murdered by illegal miners. A 3-year-old is also missing after being thrown in a river.
20,000 illegal miners have invaded Yanomami lands, leaving a trail of bloodshed and terror. The guardians of the Amazon rainforest are being slaughtered. Rivers are poisoned with mercury from the mines, and the rainforest is being decimated.–end of avaaz info–PETITION—-Sign if you wish.

“The U.S. doesn’t want peace”
Global military spending reaches record high
One million people killed by capitalism
–end of mronline info–
“Western values” seems to be a euphemism for capitalism. Capitalism seems to be the system best promoted by imperialism. Capitalism is sold as being the best system for the most people. This doesn’t seem to hold FACTually. Capitalism is also laughably superimposed as democracy. In The Ukraine the USA is supporting military action to protect “Western values” and democracy. FACTually it seems that which is protected is oligarchical interests. NATO may be the tool of infliction. Under fearful and dangerous conditions, Finland and Sweden are attempting admission into NATO. These socialist nations provide universal health care to citizens. One anticipates upon admission of Sweden and Finland to NATO, they, being wealthy nations, will pay their share of the cost of NATO in order that US citizens, now burdened with the cost of NATO, can anticipate a universal health care system that will provide better health care at less cost. Will current NATO members then demand socialist Finland and Sweden become capitalistic and predatory?
A portion of centralization with which we have become indoctrinated includes insinuation of patriarchal insolence into the lives of women. — https://portside.org/2022-05-24/what-we-can-learn-first-woman-run-legal-abortion-clinic –While states like Texas, Oklahoma and others are now making abortion access illegal, we are seeing similar networks expanding around the country. These networks are benefiting from the organizing and knowledge gained from the past 50 years of legal abortion. By the time I’d finished graduate school in 1971, I’d become much more radical, surrounded by the numerous campus strikes, demonstrations and movement building on all fronts: antiwar, women’s liberation, Black liberation and more. At a Black Panther rally, white activists were encouraged to organize white working-class people. I took that message to heart. It became difficult to remain working “in the system,” and with my radical idealism, I started to seek out a place to go to organize in a smaller city.

From lakotalaw — When I was a little girl, I lived in paradise. I would roam out from my family’s cabin along the banks of the Mni Sose — the Missouri River — and drink straight from her waters. Around our allotment, the Standing Rock Nation was home to one of the most glorious forests on Turtle Island. Our gardens had every fruit tree you could want, and berries to nourish our growing bodies and souls. We were healthy in that place. Our homelands and the river provided for us — and then everything changed.Before I tell you the rest of the story, I want to share a new video that Lakota Law has produced for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. The second chapter in our “Water Wars” series, it follows the first video, which highlighted the uniting of tribes from across the Oceti Sakowin to stop the Dakota Access pipeline (DAPL). This installment gives you more background and history, detailing the U.S. government’s refusal to honor the treaties that should preserve and protect our homelands. What happened to the paradise of my youth? In 1958, I was ten years old when the government completed construction of the Oahe Dam and flooded my home to create Lake Oahe. That same lake now provides our tribe’s drinking water, and it’s under that precious resource that DAPL dangerously crosses — without an adequate leak detection system — threatening to devastate our lives once again.After the flood, for several years, we children lived on white bread, bologna, and hard cheese. We developed vitamin deficiencies and sores on our hands. We no longer had cherries, plums, grapes, wild onions, and all the things that came from the land. We could no longer find many of the medicinal plants that used to grow wild and abundantly in the riverbed and forest. No more could we collect the mushrooms we called “ears of the tree.” When they flooded our homelands — some of the richest in the world — it was an act of pure cruelty. They took our land and the food we grew up on, and they replaced it all with a welfare state.This was, of course, illegal under both our Indigenous laws and those of the United States. The Fort Laramie Treaties of 1851 and 1868 guaranteed that we would retain our sacred He Sapa, the Black Hills, forever. Those treaties and subsequent agreements also protected 14 million acres in North Dakota. Today, we call these “taken lands,” the spoils of manifest destiny and the dam’s construction. That’s why we fight. DAPL is only the latest in a long line of projects meant to benefit the colonizer without regard for the original peoples of this land. But with your help, we’ll resist, we’ll sue, we’ll work to replace fossil fuels with Native-run renewable projects, and we’ll use the media to make ourselves heard. And when, at last, our lands are returned, our sacred sites respected, and our treaties honored, I will invite you to come sing with us. Because, despite everything, I still believe we can restore justice together.Wopila tanka — thank you for standing with Standing Rock and Lakota Law.

Please note the importance and validity of the statement ……They took our land and the food we grew up on, and they replaced it all with a welfare state……The phrase as follows….. No more could we collect the mushrooms we called “ears of the tree.” When they flooded our homelands…….brings to mind childhood in Upstate NY where much of our food was grown at home or gathered from the woods, most notably mushrooms. This was ability that accompanied parents from Eastern Europe.
The point being the similarity of international local communities as opposed to hierarchical Establishment. Another point that can be made is the abuse by hierarchical Establishment that pits local community against local community, for the promotion of interests of Establishment. This is misnamed patriotism.

The US Constitution doesn’t seem to sanction elections run by political Parties, and to permit control of political debates by political Parties seems equally corrupt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ7kn2-GEmM —

Centralization is the lifeblood of the R&D duopoly. It’s the way to enforce capitalism onto workers in 2022.
