As one who prefers speaking of FACTS on topics of interest, consider that truth emerges from an unpolluted mind. FACTS counter the clutter of popular bluster emitted by predatory campaigns used more to convince rather than enlighten. To convince leads to exploitation whether in the form of a slick media campaign or the hard-sell of a “government run like a business”. These campaigns can cloud thinking and interestingly are sullying the integrity of our physical world. This must uphold the reality of oneness.

Regime Change In Belarus – Following The Same Script Used In Syria

Judge Allows Testimony On Impacts Of Climate Change And Role Of Banks
–end of popularresistance info–

On the topic of the similarity between Syria and Belarus about regime change, similar models seem used globally.  The book by Albert Hourani called A History of The Arab Peoples, focuses on this in the Middle East and seems a blueprint for imperialism on a global basis, including the USA.
Regime change to promote imperialism and oligarchy seems insultingly transparent, but tragically accepted by humanity in the name of progress.
Progress seems defined too often in terms of privilege, exploitation and greed.  We could choose to define progress in terms of good health, equality, and peace.  Indigenous People may hold the key to our survival, considering that under relentless attack from hierarchy, Indigenous People survive.  Maybe we all can survive with respect for their wisdom.https://popularresistance.org/bridging-cultural-and-political-gaps-through-indigenous-first-foods/   –Two years ago, Grand Ronde’s fire program visited Quamash Prairie to conduct a controlled burn. Prescribed fire has grown more popular in recent years as a way to prevent uncontrolled wildfires, but it’s also a traditional form of managing first foods that was practiced for centuries before colonization. Burns cultivate fire-resilient food species like white oak acorns, and the ash nourishes camas growth. The Willamette Valley now has a reputation for vineyards and Douglas fir forests, but originally it was mostly white oak savanna, carpeted with camas, sprinkled with edible acorns and maintained with good fire.First foods also provide a more climate-friendly model of eating. Consider a hamburger, Sheoships suggests: streams in Oregon have been channelized to promote livestock grazing.“So that cow may have trampled on some salmon habitat in John Day and is now being served on your plate for a profit,” Sheoships says, adding that beef represents competing interests with meat that comes from “natural relationships,” like salmon, buffalo, elk, moose, and deer.The key to prolonging our collective survival, Sheoships says, is first foods, including restoration of native fish, first food plant resources, healthy game, and healthy ecosystems that include fire. “Long-term resilience in general, with climate change, etcetera, is how all these things come together to complement one another,” he said.–end of popularresistance info–

COP26 seems more of a red herring used by the capitalistic hierarchical Establishment to offer busy work behind which it is business as usual.  –https://www.theguardian.com/environment/commentisfree/2021/nov/13/the-observer-view-on-the-cop26-agreement?CMP=twt_a-environment_b-gdneco –The challenges going into Cop26 in Glasgow were immense. Global temperatures have already risen by about 1.1C, and global emissions of CO2 continue to rise. In order to limit heating to 1.5C, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has said that global greenhouse gas emissions must peak in the next four years, and coal- and gas-fired plants must close within the next decade.This requires a huge shift in global commitments: before Glasgow, the non-binding commitments countries have signed up to put the world on course to warm up by 2.7C, according to the UN – a level of overheating that would result in tens of millions of people dying as a result of drought, and large swaths of the planet becoming completely uninhabitable.–end of theguardian info–
Anyone concerned about Climate Change needs to understand the implications of NACs—What is one to make of the double talk as suggested below?What they do not what they say.  Double talk is apparent at COP26—That COP26 is a patriarchal presumption that seems associated with an idea that exploitation of the environment as a natural resource for profiteering particularly includes The Military Industrial Complex as a prime beneficiary and motivator.  The voices of people who prefer peace would be more helpful at COP26 than would be the voices of Establishment hierarchy, if saving the planet is the reason  –https://popularresistance.org/us-peace-prize-awarded-to-world-beyond-war/    –The 2021 US Peace Prize has been awarded to World BEYOND War “for exceptional global advocacy and creative peace education to end war and dismantle the war machine.”Michael Knox, Chair of the US Peace Memorial Foundation, thanked World BEYOND War and its members “for years of outstanding and prolific antiwar actions and extensive peace educational projects involving many people and organizations. We appreciate your leadership and the significant impact your members and programs have had throughout the world.”–end of popularresistance info–
Monitization (sic) of both people and environment for profit is precisely implicit in capitalism.  Is this truly what you want for your family?  –https://popularresistance.org/wall-streets-latest-scheme-is-monetizing-nature-itself/      –[E]ven the creators of NACs admit that the ultimate goal is to extract near-infinite profits from the natural processes they seek to quantify and then monetize….Framed with the lofty talk of “sustainability” and “conservation”, media reports on the move in outlets like Fortune couldn’t avoid noting that NACs open the doors to “a new form of sustainable investment” which “has enthralled the likes of BlackRock CEO Larry Fink over the past several years even though there remain big, unanswered questions about it.”Webb cites researcher and journalist Cory Morningstar, who maintains that one of the aims of creating “Nature’s Economy” and packaging it via NACs is to drastically advance massive land grab efforts made by Wall Street and the oligarch class in recent years, including those made by Wall Street firms and billionaires like Bill Gates during the COVID crisis. The land grabs facilitated through the development of NACs, however, will largely target indigenous communities in the developing world.–end of popularresistance info–

NACs seem to be the modern version of the Discovery Doctrine  –http://ili.nativeweb.org/sdrm_art.html              –When Christopher Columbus first set foot on the white sands of Guanahani island, he performed a ceremony to “take possession” of the land for the king and queen of Spain, acting under the international laws of Western Christendom. Although the story of Columbus’ “discovery” has taken on mythological proportions in most of the Western world, few people are aware that his act of “possession” was based on a religious doctrine now known in history as the Doctrine of Discovery. Even fewer people realize that today – five centuries later – the United States government still uses this archaic Judeo-Christian doctrine to deny the rights of Native American Indians.–end of discovery doctrine info—–end of curiously contradictory styles of double talk from Establishment——-

And while the trigger of this latest crisis was Covid, there have been signs of instability in shipping for decades. In 2017, a cyberattack at Danish shipping giant Maesk snarled supply chains for months. A few years earlier, the South Korean ocean carrier Hanjin went bankrupt, stranding boxes out at se as its mega-ships, bobbing in the waves, couldn’t be unloaded. In the early 2000s, West Coast port traffic nearly came to a standstill.–end mattstoller substack info–

https://countercurrents.org/2021/11/the-people-vs-cop26-time-for-politicians-billionaires-to-listen/       –Of all the speeches and political grandstanding at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow (COP26), the words of Mexican President, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, were the most profound and least hypocritical.Lopez Obrador raged against the “technocrats and neoliberals” – world leaders who hold the future of humanity in their hands. This was a direct reference to leaders of the powerful countries that “increase their fuel production, at the same time that they hold summits for the protection of the environment,” while arriving in Glasgow on private jets.Indeed, hypocrisy continues to define what is meant to be a collective global fight against climate change and its ravaging, often deadly consequences.–end of countercurrents info–
Clear mind promotes ingenuity and is infertile ground for indoctrination.  Clear mind is more about taking away than about piling on.  The chaos and busyness of modern life may be a prerequisite for authoritarianism.

WITHDRAWS SUPPORT FROM FINAL PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE–end of lwv info–Murray Bookchin, who founded social ecology, a theory that strongly influenced early Green Socialist thought, strongly advocated the discussion and study group as the first step of any revolutionary movement. A group of individuals meets to expand their knowledge of radical thought and form a radical intellectual community; through the give and take of discussion, can eventually form ideas for next steps in organizing and political activity. According to Bookchin, study groups help create solidarity and a shared language — with a shared coherent vision — for building a mass, organizing, political movement!
Along with Climate Change, many people oppose the imperialism of the USA under control of the Republican/Democratic duopoly.  Use of the wealth of our nation should be to enhance quality of life for We The People rather than for imperialism.  Some people vote accordingly.I———————–That “we are a 2-Party system” is a fabrication of the Republican/Democratic duopoly and spread by MSM.  In FACT the majority of voters aren’t either registered Democratic or Republican.  The censorship about this info must be envied by bureaucrats of the Former USSR and their simplistic style of 1-Party elections.  

Regardless of which character sits in the Oval Office, We The People have work to do to maintain principles of our democratic (small d) Constitutional republic.  Several items to challenge—*We need the integrity of ranked-choice voting so voters won’t feel compelled to “hold your nose and vote”*Censored debates must be stopped.  The Democratic/Republican duopoly pretends to legitimate debates in what is nothing other than another campaign show.  Independent debates run by uninterested sponsors such as The League of Women Voters, must be restored.  (Access www.debates.org to understand the extent of duopoly control).  The so-called Debate Commission is a corporation to promote the Democratic corporation and Republican corporation, not to inform We The People*Challenge and stop gerrymandering that is a trick especially of the Republican branch of the duopoly.*Stop voter suppression by political Parties, and especially confront and stop Party suppression, which is the over-arching approach to voter suppression.  Party suppression seems to have been the responsibility of the Democratic corporation*Promote by law ranked-choice voting, so we won’t be told again, by D&R duopoly, to “hold your nose and vote”
If these issues are handled, our next elections can be honorable.
