“Trust the Science?” How About “Trust the Fraud”

Science or Fraud? And is there a place for trust? Read more in this week’s edition of “Beyond Ironic”.

Those who still “trust the science” might take note that the well-known scientific journal, Nature, retracted more than 10,000 papers in 2023—a new record1. They call it a problem of “sham papers and peer-review fraud.” Who knew? Actually, real scientists and the people who publish these journals have known for years.

 

Recently, Wiley, a publisher of scientific journals, withdrew 11,000 “peer reviewed papers” they determined were fake. Funny the “peer reviewers” didn’t notice that. The scientific fraud is so bad that Wiley decided to permanently shut down 19 of it’s “scientific” journals. As Zero Hedge2 reported (commenting on an article in Nova),

 

217-year-old Wiley science publisher has reportedly "peer reviewed" more than 11,000 papers that were determined to be fake without ever noticing. The papers were referred to as "naked gobbledygook sandwiches", Australian blogger Jo Nova wrote on her blog last week .

"It’s not just a scam, it’s an industry," she said. "Who knew, academic journals were a $30 billion dollar industry?"

According to Nova 's post, professional cheating services are employing AI to craft seemingly "original" academic papers by shuffling around words. For instance, terms like "breast cancer" morphed into "bosom peril," and a "naïve Bayes" classifier turns into "gullible Bayes." Similarly, in one paper, an ant colony was bizarrely rebranded as an "underground creepy crawly state." The misuse of terminology extends to machine learning, where a 'random forest' is whimsically translated to 'irregular backwoods' or 'arbitrary timberland'.

Nova writes that shockingly, these papers undergo peer review without any rigorous human oversight, allowing egregious errors, like converting 'local average energy' to 'territorial normal vitality', to slip through. The publisher Wiley has confessed that fraudulent activities have rendered 19 of its journals so compromised that they must be shuttered.

 

“Science” has made an industry out of fraud. It's yet another reminder of why blindly "trusting the science" may not always be the best decision.

 

It is Beyond Ironic that science—for centuries touted as using logic, reason, and experimentation as a counter to superstition and blind faith—now asks us to "trust" fraud and the pursuit of wealth and power.

 

Where does trust belong? Let’s remember that trust is a characteristic of human relationships. Trust has nothing to do with science. A real scientist doesn’t say, “I trust you.” A real scientist says, “Show me your data and I’ll do my own analysis. Show me your experimental method and I’ll do that experiment myself.”

 

Now that so many scientists have shown themselves to be untrustworthy, let’s put them into the same category as used car salesmen. If you want to be scientific—do you own research!

 

God Bless You!

The Bank of Canada Thinks the Weather Causes Inflation

Unbelievable! The weather causes inflation. Taxes change the weather. Read more in this week’s edition of “Beyond Ironic”.

I didn’t know whether (pun intended) to laugh or cry. In a recent interview, the Senior Deputy Governor of the Bank of Canada, Carolyn Rogers, actually said the weather causes inflation.  “She noted factors of inflation include changing demographics, climate change and weak foreign relations.”1  

 

Of course, none of these things have anything to do with inflation. Without getting into a discourse on monetary theory, the famous American economist, Milton Friedman, said, “Inflation is everywhere and always a monetary phenomenon.”

 

The less well-known Canadian economist, Thomas Courchene, said the same thing in a series of books detailing the 1970s inflation in Canada. He concluded it was caused by a rapid increase in the money supply because banking changes (chequing-saving accounts etc.) led to an increase in the money supply that was not reflected in M1, the narrow definition of money.

 

As I sometimes say, “It’s science, but it ain’t rocket science.” In this case, “It’s economics, but it ain’t rocket economics." Nor is it MMT—Modern Monetary Theory, which is neither modern nor monetary theory. It’s Econ 101.

 

Inflation is caused by printing money out of thin air. At least that’s how us ordinary folks can understand it. All the changes in the real world—demographic changes, technology changes, weather changes, you-name-it changes—cannot cause inflation without money printing. It is the money printing alone that causes inflation.

 

Her headline point was that Canada’s low productivity is causing the inflation. But this is also a red herring. Now they can claim it’s not their money printing that causes inflation, but lazy Canadians. Even if Canadians were lazy, that cannot cause inflation. It can cause poverty, but not inflation.

  

It's Beyond Ironic! This incredible nonsense from the Bank of Canada is too stupid to be real. Over the past few years, almost all of us have said about our “leaders,” “These people are idiots.” But as I explain in my book, What the Hell Is Going On?, these people are not idiots; they’re liars. Carolyn Rogers knows very well that the weather does not cause inflation, nor does productivity nor demographic changes nor poor international relations.  

 

This interview is clearly part of some fraud. Obvious lies and utter nonsense from government officials always indicate a fraud. I haven’t got it all figured out, but some of it is easy to see. It is typical behaviour of a psychopath—project your own faults onto your victim so they think they are the cause of your abuse. The poor old Bank of Canada is doing its best to reign in the inflation caused by you lazy Canadians with your low productivity and your gas-guzzling, climate-changing SUVs.

 

This nonsense is likely part of a much bigger fraud—just one psychological warfare attack in the larger war of destroying our currency so they can justify bringing in a new currency—central bank digital currency—that will enslave everyone. I also explain this more fully in What the Hell Is Going On?

 

In the end it’s better to laugh than to cry, so let’s just laugh at the Bank of Canada and at Carolyn Rogers. But forewarned is forearmed. You are now forewarned. They are going to blame you for all their own crimes. They cannot be trusted. They will destroy our money. We are under attack. Use your own head. Act wisely.

 

 

God Bless You!

Danielle Smith Wins a Tactical Victory, But Not a Strategic One

Celebrate, but not too much. This is a small victory. See what I mean in this week’s edition of “Beyond Ironic”.

Lovers of freedom have been cheering Danielle Smith’s reinstatement of a modicum of sanity and common sense. In case you missed the news, the Premier of Alberta announced a ban on “gender reassignment” surgeries for children under 18 years of age, prohibiting puberty blockers for children under 16, etc. Most people likely see this as common sense, but the political “left” has pretty much lost their minds.

 

We must remember that we are in a war. This is not simply the political to-and-fro, left-vs-right that we are accustomed to. It really is war, and we must observe events with a degree of military detachment. Danielle Smith has achieved a tactical victory but not a strategic one. Let me explain what I mean.

 

This is a tactical victory because it moves Alberta society closer to saneness, rationality, common sense, and scientific truth and the rule of law. It has pushed back our adversary a bit and established and firm defensive position that will be difficult to assail.

 

Everyone should understand that there is nothing radical in Danielle Smith’s announcement. It is all completely consistent with centuries of statue law and English common law and thousands of years of cultural understanding amongst people of every time and place. Parents are responsible for their children. Period. The only difference between cultures and times has been the age of responsibility (age of majority). Nobody can just mutilate a child without their parent’s permission. This has always been a crime, and anyone involved in any way is a criminal.

 

Those who have now lost their minds and are screaming about “rights” have no idea what they’re talking about. There is no “right” to mutilate a child. There is no “right” to counsel and child to agree to their own mutilation, and this has always been understood to be manipulation of a vulnerable child.

 

In Alberta, it’s against the law for any child under 16 to get married or drive a car, or for any child under 18 to drink alcohol or vote. A dentist cannot fill a child’s cavity, a physiotherapist cannot lay hands on a child, without their parent’s written permission. When I was teaching, I couldn’t even walk 18-year-old students across the street from the school without the written permission of their parents. No clearly thinking person could possibly imagine that it is OK to sexually mutilate a child or give them endocrine disrupting drugs without their parent’s written permission. So, everything Danielle Smith said simply confirms existing laws and cultural practices in Alberta and throughout human history. There is no need to apologize or explain anything.

 

However, this is not a strategic victory, in my estimation, because it still accepts the lies. She started her speech with several minutes of obsequious appeals to the gender fraudsters and sexual fanatics. She accepted the whole lie of “gender ideology.”

We won’t have a strategic victory until people in leadership positions start speaking the truth. If you were born male, you cannot become female. If you were born female, you cannot become male. You cannot become the other sex by mutilating your sexual organs and completely dysregulating your endocrine system. The so-called “gender reassignment surgery” is a lie and a medical fraud.

 

Gender is not even a word that applies to mammals. Gender is a linguistic term. Certain words have a gender; humans do not. Humans, and all mammals, have a sex, of which there are exactly two. It’s not just our sexual organs that determine our sex. Every cell is our body has either XX chromosomes (female) or XY chromosomes (male). Everyone knows this. Every farmer knows that you don’t create a cow when you cut off a bull’s testicles. You create a steer—a sexually neuter animal that cannot reproduce and is good only for hamburgers.

 

This “issue” has nothing to do with sexuality and nothing to do with imaginary children’s “rights.” The whole “transexual issue” is not an issue at all. It is a fraud and a totalitarian subversive attack. As the old communist maxim says, the issue is never the issue; the issue is always the revolution. Unbeknownst to most of the “transgender” supporters (who are unfortunate useful idiots), the people who are pushing this agenda don’t give a rat’s ass for you feelings or your “gender.” What we are seeing in this “transgender” movement is clearly totalitarian subversion in action.

 

Another communist motto is, order out of chaos. First you create the chaos, then you use the chaos to destroy everything—people, families, religions, social structures, governments, etc.—then you create the totalitarian order you want. So, totalitarians use any issue they can, often non-issues and imaginary issues, to get people to fight amongst themselves and destroy themselves. That’s what the “trans” agenda is all about—destroying people, families, and societies. And when the “gender issue” has ceased its usefulness, it will be dropped like a hot potato and some other issue picked up to divide people, because it’s not about the issue at all.

 

Have you noticed that “women’s issues” have disappeared? Of course. Women have been thrown under the bus because their “issues” just aren’t useful anymore. Are you a female boxer and don’t want a man to beat the crap out of you? Too bad. Suck it up, princess, and get with the program. It’s all about “trans” rights now. Are you a 13-year-old girl swimmer in Ontario and don’t want to compete against a 50-year-old man? Same response. Keep your mouth shut or you’ll be kicked off the team and disgraced. He “identifies” as a 13-year-old girl, and we can’t hurt his precious feelings. Your feelings don’t count.

 

These “trans” people will also be thrown under the bus and forgotten once a better issue comes along. The revolution is about destroying individuals, families, and society. That’s what is going on. That’s what this is all about. That’s the truth that no one dares to speak, and we won’t have a strategic victory until people do dare to speak it. As always, the real tragedy is the millions of people who have fallen for the lies.

 

Until we are willing to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, we are playing our adversary’s game and we cannot win. The winning strategy is to tell the truth and let the chips fall where they may. One lesson of life (that sometimes comes with white hair) is that telling the truth may bring unpleasant consequences. But in any situation, telling the truth brings the best consequences possible. It’s time for all of us to start telling the truth.

 

God Bless You!

If you Hate Anyone - You've Been Psyoped

Psychological warfare begins by getting people to hate each other. It’s been done to you. Find out what you can do about it in this week’s edition of “Beyond Ironic”.

Have you noticed that everyone from politicians to the media to social media “influencers” to your neighbor are all trying to jerk you around and get you to hate somebody? Hate the Russians. Hate the Palestinians. No, hate the Jews. Hate the unvaxxed. No, hate the vaxxed. Hate the climate deniers. No, hate the climate dictators. Hate the Democrats. No, hate the Republicans.

 

Do you see a pattern here? You should.  It’s the standard pattern of psychological warfare. I explain this in my upcoming book. (If you subscribe to my blog, I’ll let you know when it’s available. Plus, you get a free mini ebook!) The basic goal of psychological warfare (also called psychological operations, hence the term “psyop”) is to get your opponent to fight amongst himself and thus destroy himself. Then, defeating him is easy, since he has already done most of work for you. Psyop is weaponized sociology. It happens in four phases: polarization, tribalization, dehumanization, and killing.

 

Polarization is when you get people to divide into antagonistic groups—the good and the bad. You (the manipulator) define who is good and who is bad. Then you get the good people, the “in group,” to hate the bad people, the “out group.” It is all designed to appear random and organic, but it’s not. It’s very intentional. Today, we are constantly told who to blame for the current “problem,” and then we are led to hate those people: racists, unvaxxed, right-wing white supremacists, etc. This is the polarization phase.

In Tribalization, you retreat into “your” group and see every other group as a threat. If you are black, you are led to believe that white people are a threat. If you are vaxxed, then the unvaxxed are a threat. The Russians are a threat, the Palestinians, the rich, the poor, the educated, the uneducated, the old, the young, the Christians, the non-Christians, and on and on. There are an infinite number of ways to divide people into “tribes” and get them to fear the other “tribes.” For the psychological manipulator, they’re all good. Any and all divisions, hatreds, arguments, tribes, and fears are good.

We stop perceiving people as individual humans, as brothers and sisters in the human family. Instead, we quickly put a label on people we disagree with, and they become simply a representative or an avatar of that label. The label is a caricature of a real human, which leads directly to dehumanization.

Dehumanization is when people are led to believe that their tribe is the only tribe that deserves to live—or to get health care, or government services, or access to food, travel, etc. All the other tribes are evil, so they must join the “right” tribe or die. Once we get into the dehumanization phase, if it continues, only killing comes next.

It’s very difficult to kill another human being. It is naturally repugnant to us. So, we must first dehumanize people before we can kill them. This process of psychological manipulation is essential in war, but it has absolutely no place in peace. When you see this process in action, know that it is war—nothing else.

Did you notice the Israelis calling the Palestinians, “animals?” It is not an accident. It’s not a metaphor. It is a tactic. Today’s cancel culture is dehumanizing your neighbors and paving the way to killing them.

Killing comes next. This can happen in myriad ways: disappearing the Jews in “relocation” (death camps); “re-education” of the intelligentsia in Mao’s Cultural Revolution; the Hutus butchering their Tootsie neighbors with machetes in Rwanda; the Black Lives Matter (mostly peaceful) riots that were the most destructive and murderous in U.S. history. We can see the beginnings of the killing phase already.

By applying various labels to various “out groups” our governments have been able break all their own laws and get the “in group” to support this. Think about how these “out groups” are quickly created and abused: Russians, unvaxxed, racists, homophobes, white supremists, etc. All of this is psychological warfare. It’s intended to lead to killing. It will.

Politics is a great tool for polarizing people and dividing us into tribes. In fact, that’s its only function today. Politics has become nothing more than theater and psychological manipulation. Forget all the names that people put on political movements and philosophies. Whether you are for Trump or against Trump, you’ve been psyoped either way.

These psychological warfare techniques to control your mind and your actions always use fear. Psyops cannot work without fear. In reality, there is nothing to fear—not losing your job, nor your income, nor your social status. Without fear, our adversary becomes powerless and the psyop fails. This is completely under your control. No one makes you afraid. Fear is always your reaction. You can choose to react differently.

Choose love instead of fear. Love everyone. Fear nothing. Hate no one. Wish no evil against anyone—even those who really deserve it. Hatred is undeserving of you. That’s the point. Live in the consciousness of love. This is your protection against fear, against manipulation, against psyop. Fear is behind every psyop. If you are fearful, you’ve been psyoped. If you hate anyone, you’ve been psyoped. It’s that simple.

 

 

God Bless You!

Goebbels Would Be Impressed With Bill C-11

It’s propaganda but it’s also spiritual. See what I mean in this week’s edition of

There has been lots of controversy about Bill C-11, as there should be whenever governments take more power for themselves—and that’s exactly what Bill C-11 is about. As usual, the basic argument is that there are problems in Canada and the only solution is more power for the federal government. That alone should raise a red flag.

The main problem with Bill C-11 is that the bureaucracy, not parliament, gets to make the regulations about what to censor and what not to censor.* Yeah, it’s really a censorship bill disguised as a “Canadian content” bill. That’s how all dictatorships get people to go along with becoming slaves—tell them it’s for their own good, for their protection.

Just think about how much government censorship of media and the internet exists right now, then ask yourself if our governments really need more power to censor us. Take a look at these 11 principles of propaganda that were developed a century ago by Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s propaganda minister. All of these have been going on in Canada for decades, and recently getting much worse. Bill C-11 opens the door to even more.

The Nazis are often credited with turning the art of propaganda into a science. Goebbels summarized his techniques in a famous list that was found amongst his papers after the war. Here I have taken the basic ideas and expressed them in a manner fitting the digital age. This is precisely what came to be called psychological warfare.

Nazi propaganda principles applied to digital marketing.**

Simplification and a Unique Enemy: Create a simple, unique brand identity. Do the same for your main enemy. Make it easy to understand; reduce complexities. Unified Force: Have clearly defined objectives and fight hard against your single enemy. Collect all enemies into a single identity for easy assault. Label everyone who opposes you as a: fascist, racist, homophobe, science denier, anti-vaxxer, etc. Deflection: Charge your enemies with errors, defects, faults. Blame someone else. Deflect all attacks on yourself or your narrative onto your enemies. Attack their credibility, replace their facts with your “facts”. Truth is irrelevant. Exaggeration: A big lie is easier to sell than a small lie. Inflate any anecdote or fact to create fear in people so you can manipulate them. Then propose your solution as the only reasonable option. Vulgarization: Everything must be presented in simple language and ideas, directed to the least intelligent and educated person. Avoid all complexity, nuance, subtlety, technicality. Appeal to emotion not intellect. Use slogans not analysis. Social media helps this tremendously because it is impossible to communicate complex ideas in a tweet. Repetition: A lie repeated often enough becomes truth. The same narrative must be repeated over and over, on TV, radio, and constantly retweeted on social media. If people hear it often enough, they will stop questioning it. Be the first to present your narrative and overwhelm all opposition with the volume of your propaganda. Reinforcement: Your message must be constantly renewed and updated—same message in a slightly different format. People are bombarded with new images and information that reinforces the message. This must be daily—hourly is better. Many Voices: Transmit your message through many different people and media, from many different perspectives: TV, radio, social media, newspaper, movies, popular music, art, theatre, etc. Every message comes to the same conclusion, supporting your narrative. When every TV and radio station supports your narrative, it gives it overwhelming weight in peoples’ minds. “Everyone is thinking this, so it must be true.” Silencing: Bad news must be silenced. You must remove all narratives other than your own. That is, censorship. If someone cannot be removed, you must discredit them. Isolate dissenters as idiots, paid enemy propagandists, dangerous threats to society, conspiracy theorists, Big Oil apologists, climate deniers, racists, etc. Association: Exploit people by attaching your message to their existing beliefs, biases, feelings. For example, “All compassionate people will agree with me.” “Only selfish people (or fascists, racists, homophobes…) will disagree with me. Associate your message with qualities people associate with themselves. Then they will identify with your narrative. Use existing terms and movements. Thus, we see terms like social justice, equality, inclusion, etc. taken over and associated with our narrative. We tar our opponents by associating them with terms like racist, bigot, sexist, etc. Unanimity: Create the impression that everyone agrees with your narrative. “95% of scientists agree.” “The American Medical Association agrees.” Therefore, only a fool would disagree.

If these principles sound familiar it’s because they are. It’s Beyond Ironic but we are living exactly these principles today. And it’s getting worse.

But don’t fear. The escape from propaganda is already in your hands. Just stop paying any attention to the mainstream or what our governments say. It has become all lies and propaganda. You are responsible for finding out the truth. You are responsible for being correctly informed. Strange and ironic as it might seem, this is really a spiritual defense from a spiritual attack. No one can control your mind without your permission—active or tacit permission. Stop giving other permission to control your mind. You can do it!

God Bless You!

* See, Jay Goldberg, Opinion: How Ottawa’s internet censorship law will affect you. “The bill would give the CRTC power to control what Canadians are exposed to online by filtering our news and streaming feeds on apps like Netflix and TikTok. The government says bureaucrats would only use their new censorship powers to try to promote Canadian content. But C-11 gives them the tools to filter online content on any basis, not just according to whether something counts as ‘Canadian.’”

Fantasy vs Reality in the Alberta Election: Did Mass Formation Play a Role?

This is an idea you won’t hear anywhere else!

It turns out there is a very close correlation in the recent Alberta election between voting patterns and covid “vaccine” uptake. This is explained in an excellent substack article by Hannah Luise. Tracing official Misinformation - when voting patterns reflect Vaccine Trust (on the substack site, followingthecovidscience. May 30.)

The third shot was never mandated. Nobody was forced to take it. Only the true believers took it—people who believed the covid propaganda story. There seems to be a close correlation between these people and the people who voted NDP. I see the tell-tale traces of mass formation in this.

For readers who have no idea what mass formation is, I will direct you to my recent book (What the Hell Is Going On? – The Web of Fraud That Is Enslaving Everyone and How We Can Escape to Freedom) and to any of the podcast interviews by psychologist Dr. Matthias Desmet (such as on the Jerm Warfare podcast, or this one with Ivor Cummings)

Professor Desmet says that in mass formation, people are led to believe an ideology. This ideology starts out as something reasonably logical but becomes increasingly absurd over time. About 30% of people become hypnotized by this—the True Believers.

Both socialism/Marxism and covidism are ideologies. As I explain in my book, ideologies are always an incomplete understanding of reality, a misunderstanding of reality. Really, they are fantasies. They are not real. They do not exist in material reality. They are false perceptions of reality. And they are always used by despots and psychopaths to control other people.

Professor Desmet says that people who do not fall for the mass formation ideologies are (my generalization) strongly connected to reality in some way. They are close to nature and the land, or work with their hands and physical materials, or have very strong bonds of personal relationships.

So, when I look at the correlation between voting NDP and being taken in by the covid ideology, I see that the same set of people seem to be affected by mass formation. In both cases, they are unable to tell fantasy from reality. They believe an ideology that is simply not true. It is not real.

As I say in my recent book, the only way out of this fantasy is to dismantle the ideologies that hold our brothers and sisters in a fantasy world. This is a slow and often painful process—like waking up from a nightmare. This is a traumatic process and we have to be patient with our sleeping siblings. But the awakening must happen. This is your responsibility. You are the Prince Charming who must awaken the slumbering Sleeping Beauties. It will take more than one kiss, but it will involve a battle with evil. Fear not. You have come here for this. Whether you realize it or not, you chose this destiny. You signed on to be a hero. Be a hero!

God Bless You!

SMART Cities is a DUMB Idea

It’s really about totalitarian control—and you are corrupted. Read what I mean in this week’s edition of

The first thing to understand is that SMART does not mean intelligent. This is totalitarian manipulation of language at its finest. It’s intended to make you think the word means something it doesn’t. Numerous interpretations of this acronym abound, but it really means Surveillance, Monitoring, Analysis, Reporting and Technology. And it’s about your movements and behaviour. SMART cities are ones that will keep you under surveillance 24/7, control your movements and behaviour, and turn you into a prisoner without you even realizing what’s really going on.

These 15-minute SMART cities limit people's movement under the vague excuse of “climate change.” The UK is leading the way on this with millions collected in fines already for residents who break the rules on restricted travel areas. This has nothing to do with the climate, the environment, or making your city “livable.” It is only about control. Nothing else.

I bet you didn’t know that “15-minute” cities is just a transition. They are already talking about 10-minute cities, then it will be 5-minute cities—gradually confining you to an ever-smaller prison. It will all be done digitally—digital ID, digital surveillance, digital control of your whole life. Finally, well, just stay in your house—like they did with the covid fraud.

They don’t want you to drive cars because cars give independence. They want you under control. Notice that with 15-minute cities, it doesn't matter whether or not you drive an electric car. It’s all about movement and liberty, not emissions. Have you noticed that urban design today is calculated to make driving any car almost impossible? City streets are being taken up with extra wide sidewalks, and curbs, and all sorts of traffic barriers, and bike lanes—even in Edmonton which has snow for half the year. Using a bicycle as your primary means of transportation is completely impractical. Everywhere the City of Edmonton “upgrades” its streets, it leaves a pretty landscape that is useless and unlivable. This has nothing to do with practical and efficient transportation. It is all about creating a lovely prison, so you don’t realize it’s a prison.

SMART cities is a fraud. And it’s all illegal. Our Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees mobility rights. We can travel anywhere in the country, anytime we want, and leave the country and return to it anytime we want. But the people behind this have no interest in law. We have lost the rule of law and now have the rule by law. Law is only used to control people and to support the official agenda. Law is no longer a defense against a tyrannical government, nor a guide for peaceful living.

Surveillance is being increased to the scale of China’s 24/7 complete surveillance. As I explain in my book, surveillance equals control. You cannot have both surveillance and sovereignty. You must choose one or the other. If you accept 15-minute SMART cities, you are accepting slavery.

Every major city in the world has signed on to the 15-minute city agenda. Just like with the covid fraud, this level of policy coordination is impossible—unless the policy is being dictated from above. The plans and the money to support the plans (just like with covid) are coming from the highest level.

In Canada, all sorts of municipalities have been given massive payments to “go along” with this agenda. Canada’s “Smart Cities Challenge” is giving away almost a billion dollars to promote this totalitarian plan. Here is the map of which municipalities received money. Even the tiny village of Stirling, Alberta (pop. 978) got $5,000,000,000 for a SMART City initiative.

You can only give away this massive amount of money by creating money out of thin air. People and politicians are being corrupted and controlled with money created out of nothing, with no intention of ever paying it back. And that money forms the foundation of our financial system (government bonds are the core holdings of all pension funds), which leads inexorably to the coming financial collapse, which is completely planned and will be blamed on “capitalism” and used to justify replacing our currency with digital currency. It's all a huge web of fraud—exactly the subtitle of my book, “The Web of Fraud That Is Enslaving Everyone and How We Can Escape to Freedom.”

The escape from this totalitarian tyranny is to stop going along with lies. You must stop going along with all these frauds. Explain this to your local politicians. Every municipality must stop these phony “climate” restrictions, and stop taking money from the provincial and federal governments. This is how everyone is corrupted—with money created out of thin air. This is how corruption permeates every part of society. If you don’t think you are corrupted, just try to not accept any “grant” or money in a “government program.” This is the dirty money that corrupts everyone and compels you to go along with all the lies. Just stop it!

God Bless You!

One With God or One With Evil

We can seek a greater awareness of our oneness with God, or ignore God and become one with evil. Read what I mean in this week’s edition of

One of the many powerful and illuminating lines in The Poem of the Man-God, is when Jesus says to Judas Iscariot, “Judas, you do not see evil because you are one with it.” This is a concise expression of an idea that has been part of Christianity for all its two thousand years, and part of every spiritual tradition before that - oneness with God, or oneness with evil. It is perhaps ironic, even Beyond Ironic, but it is an eternal truth that we can see at work in a thousand ways in the modern world.

The same idea forms the thematic basis of the great parable, Pinocchio. In order to become a real boy, that is, to become truly human, the wooden puppet must develop a conscience. Our conscience is our internal sense of right and wrong, good and evil. All of us are born with a conscience. It is part of our divine inheritance, part of our soul that comes from God and is our connection with God.

To put it another way, to become truly human, Pinocchio must have a soul. The human condition is the little trinity of body, mind, and soul. Geppetto, the carpenter, made Pinocchio’s body. Through a miracle, the wooden body was imbued with a mind. But Pinocchio had to develop his own conscience—his own soul. Of course, it can’t really happen that way. It’s just a story.

The story of Pinocchio might even be the story of the entire human experience. As described in the creation allegory in Genesis, the souls/spirits that were created by God descended into matter. The “fall” was really a “separation.” We became separated from the knowledge of our oneness with God, our Creator. The beginning of the ascent back to the realization of our oneness with God was to eat of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Only by discriminating between good and evil, and consciously choosing good, can we make our way back to the understanding that we are eternal beings of light and love.

Jesus showed us that way, the way to choose love even in the face of great evil and hatred. For as He said, what credit is it if you love only those who love you. The “refiner’s fire” is the evil we face in the world. To regain the consciousness of oneness with God, we must choose to love even in the face of great evil. And to do that, we must surely know the difference between good and evil. This is exactly what “the deceiver” attempts to confuse.

Christianity has always presented the evil force, Satan or Lucifer, as a great deceiver—one who confuses people's understanding of good and evil. He is the trickster who leads people to think there is no evil. Thus, people are led to do evil and think they are virtuous.

Look around our world and what do you see? People have been led to fight against each other for a hundred insignificant reasons, and think this is good. This is a violation of the spiritual truth that we are all one. By fighting against others, we fight against ourselves, we fight against God, who lives within all His creatures.

When racism reached the lowest level in human history, it has been revived with a manufactured and envious sense of entitlement and insult. People have been led to believe that forcing their own (or the government’s) expectations of acceptable thoughts, words, and actions on everyone else is virtuous. This is a violation of the spiritual principle of free will.

People have even been led to believe that the sexual mutilation of children is virtuous. Amongst other evils, this is a violation of their free will, and of the prohibition against shedding innocent blood. We have become, collectively, Pinocchio off to join the circus. Whatever we choose to do, we see as being good. We have become (at least some of us, and our society, collectively) one with evil, so we cannot see it.

The Spirit of God dwells within each one of us. It is our divine inheritance. Call it whatever you want: the Holy Spirit, your soul, your spirit, the Divine within, or even your conscience. You know good from evil. Even little children know this. But our conscience needs to be developed, not distorted. We must constantly listen to that “still, small voice within.” God speaks to everyone, to our hearts. Usually, we don't listen. We must develop our listening skills.

The Luciferian influence has destroyed the conscience of many and made it impossible for them to distinguish good from evil. Thus, many have become one with evil, while thinking themselves virtuous. Both individually and collectively, we must re-establish and strengthen our connection to God. We must seek that oneness with God that Jesus showed us and that is our eternal quest—our eternal spiritual journey back to God. He is the Father. We are the prodigal son. He awaits us with open arms. Why tarry?

God Bless You!

15-Minute Rehearsals for Martial Law

You will have all the tyranny you allow. Read what I mean in this week’s edition of “Beyond Ironic”.

Over the past few years, I have watched, aghast, as Canadians submitted to government lawlessness based on official propaganda with no scientific validity. 15-minute cities is taking this to a whole new level. It won’t end well. Let me explain.

First of all, the whole global warming, climate emergency campaign is a fraud. It’s not a hoax, not a scam. These are different. It is a fraud. I explain this thoroughly in my recent book and won’t do it again here. But understand that there is absolutely no rational or scientific basis to the claim that “15-minute cities” have anything to do with the environment, the climate, or the weather.

Then why are we doing this? Let me jump to the punch line. The long explanation is in my book. It’s all about power and control. This is psychological warfare to condition us into accepting ever greater arbitrary and nonsensical government restrictions on everything we do, say, and think, and ever greater lawlessness by our own governments.

Our mobility rights are supposed to be guaranteed in our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and in many other laws and legal precedents going back centuries in our English Common Law tradition. It is illegal for municipal governments to restrict the movement of citizens for no good reason. And this is no reason at all! As we saw with covid, our governments are breaking laws everywhere. They have no respect at all for the law. We have completely lost the rule of law and are now subjected to the rule by law. The former characterizes democracy. The latter characterizes dictatorship.

You may have noticed that our supposedly democratic governments are also completely insulated from common sense and the pleas of the common people. They do what they want and it’s impossible to divert them from their totalitarian path. My fellow Canadians, we must resist this tyranny. That’s what it is. It is not foolishness, or mistakes, or misunderstanding, and certainly not wisdom. 15-minute cities are for one thing and one thing only – a dress rehearsal for martial law.

And who is paying for all this tyranny? You are. Through the fines you will get for grocery shopping, going to the gym, taking your kids to soccer practice, and visiting your grandmother. Through your taxes that pay for the police, diverted from dealing with real crime, to issuing fines to you for living your life. Through inflation as the federal government prints more money to give away to municipalities to build the control systems to take away what little freedom you have left.

We are being bribed with our own money to submit to complete totalitarian tyranny, and at the same time being conditioned to accept Nazi-style restrictions on our mobility rights and the lawlessness of governments. It is Beyond Ironic that the majority of Canadians are silently watching our nation be destroyed by our own “leaders” and are not even speaking out against it. My friends, you will have all the tyranny you allow.

God Bless You!

The Devolution of Davos Man

Evolution, devolution, and Davos Man. There's lots to think about in this week’s edition of “Beyond Ironic”.

Many decades ago, in my university anthropology class, I learned about our pre-human evolutionary ancestors—at least that’s what anthropologists suppose. There was Australopithecus and Homo Habilis and Homo Erectus and Cro-Magnon Man and Piltdown Man and…well, Piltdown Man turned out to be a scientific fraud. My, my, haven’t we become almost acclimatized to scientific frauds these days. But I digress.

Today, we are faced with the evolutionary miracle known as “Davos Man.” It’s certainly a novel evolutionary development. This creature has managed the collective amnesia of untold thousands of years of human evolution, to the point where Davos Man considers himself the master of the universe, like something out of a Marvel comic book. Ever since (what we think of as) the dawn of civilization, homo sapiens sapiens (Yeah, that’s what they call us. It's not a typo.) have understood that our existence is a mysterious blend of body, mind, and soul.

Surprising as it may sound, the devolutionary detour began about three centuries ago during what we perhaps paradoxically call the “Enlightenment.” Up until then, all human knowledge was counted together as, well, knowledge. Spiritual knowledge and scientific knowledge and engineering knowledge and historical knowledge and military knowledge, and you-name-it knowledge was all part of being an Educated Man—another almost extinct evolutionary branch on the human tree.

But during the Enlightenment, those who sought scientific knowledge decided to restrict their studies to only those things that could be perceived by the five physical senses. Perhaps they were also motivated by self-preservation. Being terrorized by the persecution of Galileo for peering through a telescope and deducing that the sun, not the earth, was the center of our solar system, other scientists may have sought to erect a defense against pyromaniac ecclesiastical enthusiasm. But whatever their motivation, scientists separated “science” from all spiritual and mental phenomena and restricted their field of study to only physical phenomena. Thereafter, finding that evolutionary form of man that melded all fields of knowledge in one mind and soul become so rare as to deserve its own name, derived from the last era in which such men existed—Renaissance Man.

The idea had some merit and has led to a great explosion of scientific understanding and amazing technological developments. However, it also had a dark side. It led to the quasi-religion of Scientism, really an ideology. The Enlightenment scientists and philosophers were mostly men of faith—they knew God existed, they just didn’t use science to understand Him. Yet these were followed in the next century by an evolutionary branch of men that declared “Only physical things exist.” This bizarre idea had formerly only attached itself to Uneducated Man, since all truly educated men knew at least something of the spiritual mysteries and the existence of many realms of non-physical reality.

Philosophers came up with what we call “Philosophical Materialism,” which put the academic stamp of approval on the idea that only material things exist. Of course, they had to side-step what we call the “Hard Problem of Consciousness.” This is the question, “What is consciousness and where does it come from?" This is a very hard problem indeed if you believe that only material things exist, since consciousness is so clearly non-material. So, they assumed that consciousness and the mind are chemical products of the brain, and someday we will understand the brain well enough to attach a specific chemical to the feelings of love and hate and anger; and the thoughts of peace and conquest and even the Pythagorean Theorem and the General Theory of Relativity and… You get the idea.

Philosophical Materialism, like many other sciences and social sciences, envied Isaac Newton’s explanations of the universe in terms of machines and forces and matter and gravity. Ever since Newton’s great elevation of physics, everyone has tried to turn their own little branch of “science” into physics. It is so beautifully neat and tidy and quantitative to understand the universe and reality in terms of a machine. It led to a mechanistic understanding of everything. All reality is just a machine, and we (humans) can tinker with the machine and make it suit our own needs and desires. There is no God, but we can become gods through our “tinkering.” This evolutionary branch of thought has brought us, today, to the advent of Transhuman Man.

But the hard question of consciousness is not so easily avoided. The assumption of philosophers and scientists remains, to this day, no more than an assumption. It is completely without evidence—and it is evidence that “science” so prides itself on adhering to. As the great neurosurgeon, Dr. Eben Alexander, said, “Medical science has absolutely no idea how the brain gives rise to consciousness.” In fact, the brain does not give rise to consciousness.

When we look at the evidence of consciousness—scientific, personal, anecdotal, or any other type of evidence—it is clear that consciousness is not produced in the brain, is not confined to the brain, and is not even confined to the human body. There are physicists today who say, the more they look at the universe, the more its underlying principle seems to be, not matter, but consciousness. Consciousness seems to pervade all things, animate all things, and come before all things.

This is exactly what spiritual teachers have said since the dawn of time. As Pierre Teilhard de Chardin famously said, “We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience.” To simply sweep all non-material reality out of your worldview is illogical, unscientific, and completely ignores a vast body of material evidence. It’s really beyond ironic how unscientific this scientism can be! However little we may understand it, there is obviously a large non-material reality. We would do well to investigate it rather than to ignore it.

Perhaps you think I have forgotten about Davos Man. Let me come back to that. You see, Davos Man is completely captured by this philosophical materialism and a mechanistic view of reality, of humans, and of the whole universe. Reality is simply not so. What they believe is a fantasy. Therefore, what they think and do are not appropriate responses to reality.

The truth is (even though it cannot be scientifically proven) that we are fundamentally spiritual beings inhabiting a human body. And regardless of what you think about your body, it is a perfect vehicle for your soul. Our best scientists know little about how our body really works because they ignore its connection to, and the operation of, our mind and our soul. Thus, they cannot possibly make beneficial improvements to the body through transhumanist machines. They can only make things worse.

The great modern mystic, Gigi Young, explains that there are two ways to degrade ourselves as humans. One is to degrade our consciousness and soul by continually allowing fear to dominate our consciousness. The other is to degrade our bodies through transhumanism. Both lead to devolution, not evolution, as Klaus Schwab and the WEF crowd believe. Transhumanism leads to a “human” body that is not refined enough to be able to host a human soul. Transhumanism separates your soul from your body. Only lesser developed entities will be able to inhabit these devolved transhuman bodies. You will lose your free will, your individuality, and your soul. Some would call this “hell.”

This is the devolutionary path that Davos Man is on. Each of you can choose your own path, but the Davos Devolution is not for me.

God Bless You!
