General Discussion

In an esoteric sense, they are masters of temporal power - old souls who have become so distorted that nothing satisfies them but squeezing out the uttermost blood from their prey. Blood sacrifice.

I believe that Trump-Bannon-Miller are the personification of the power of chaos - Leviathan the sea beast.

Thiel-Vance, Bezos, Musk and the rest of the billionaire parasites are the personification of tyranny - Behemoth, the bronze bull. You will note that this idol exists as we speak on Wall Street and has since it mysteriously appeared there one morning in 1989. It is the idol America has worshipped since then and into this century. A few people whose lust for economic and temporal power has made our entire system into a pump funneling money from the treasury into their already bulging pockets.

Then we have Zuck, Musk, Bezos and Vought (the guy who wrote Project 2025 and said the 'coup' would be bloodless IF the left lets it be. They are the monsters of distraction, the night bird who cries in desolate places. This is Wall-Street profit-biased media reporting, talk radio and social media trolls who have rendered most of us incapable of discerning truth from lies. This 'demon' is called Lilith in esoteric writings.

But these aren't really 'demons' are they? They are agents of collective forces such as xenophobia, racism, greed, chaos and the rest. These forces have existed throughout human history, and tend to be abated through cataclysmic things like plagues, famines and wars. The Second World War is an example - the collective energies of anti-Sematism, racism, and greed were defeated at the cost of 60 million lives, and these forces slept uneasily until the constant drumbeat of wedge issues such as misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia, anti-Sematism, greed (remember Gorden Gecko?), envy and so on sapped our decency and kindness as a people.

The plan was formed in 1971 by Lewis Powell in his "An Attack on American Free Enterprise" which he wrote at the behest of the US Chamber of Commerce. It set forth the methodology for the corporate takeover of this republic. Now Project 2025 is the plan for what to do to consolidate power after the coup has taken place.

No one wants to live in these kind of times, but larger forces are at work. Trump is literally and purposefully dismantling the American Empire which we inherited from Britain at the end of the Second World War, but which we had been steadily building since the late 19th century. We are entering an age where the giant centralized government set up by FDR in the New Deal is disintegrating of its own weight and yes, corruption. Now, we must reach out to neighbors and build community - micro-lending to help people form cottage industries, community and individual gardens, and transforming our local and state economies to become more self-sufficient.

It is the exact fear of suffering, deprivation and death that has created the sense of dread that powers these three collective forces - chaos, tyranny and distraction. Once we realize that this life is but a compressed learning experience held within the parentheses of birth and death, then we may free ourselves of these fears and attachments and act to help one another.

Because the real truth is that we have been lied to about scarcity. Those who feverishly amass wealth and temporal power have created great distortion in the basic survival needs all of us have on this plane. Eleven people a minute die of starvation so people such as Thiel, Trump, Musk, Bezos and others can have 'just a little more.'

To paraphrase a proverb, it is good to have enough each day. Any more and you will begin worrying about losing what is ephemeral in the first place, and any less and your needs in this realm, constrained as they are by space, time and the physical needs of your body, cannot be met. I am in your boat - disabled and a caregiver for my spouse. I too experienced homelessness at one point in my life.

We may lament living in times such as these, but we are living in them and so must do what is necessary to battle these forces, again by building community. Will we suffer? Surely yes. Will some die? Again yes, but in the end this applies to all. But what if we are approaching a species awakening - a realization of connectedness between each of us and all life on this Earth?

Anyway, I sincerely wish us all the best, but it is for us to do the best we can - nothing more or less - and none of us are as powerless as these forces would like to have us believe.
