New on Dave’s Patreon Platform: Discussion of the South African Broederbond, Unpacking of Sirhan Sirhan’s Background

The lat­est pre­sen­ta­tions on Dav­e’s Patre­on plat­form fea­ture in-depth dis­cus­sion of the South African Broeder­bond, as well as dis­sec­tion of the fas­cist milieu that sur­round­ed Sirhan Sirhan, lead­ing to his fram­ing for the RFK assas­si­na­tion and seek­ing to ben­e­fit from pro­pa­gan­diz­ing that event. As peo­ple with an oblig­a­tion to our descen­dants, we have the respon­si­bil­i­ty to pre­serve a record of the events lead­ing to the col­lapse of our social and polit­i­cal milieu. There is no bet­ter way of ful­fill­ing that oblig­a­tion than by obtain­ing the lat­est flash dri­ve, con­tain­ing all of Dav­e’s 45+ years on the air and a library of old anti-fas­cist books.

Latest Patreon Talk: Tulsi Gabbard and “Russia-Gate;” The Torbitt Document; Bogus Researchers; The Martin Niemoller File

Pay par­tic­u­lar atten­tion to Niemoller–he is often quot­ed in these per­ilous times (“First They Came for The Com­mu­nists, etc.”) Yet, he him­self was an ear­ly mem­ber of the Nazi Par­ty and the Freiko­rps. It was the Freiko­rps and asso­ci­at­ed ele­ments that led to the ascent of Hitler by sys­tem­at­i­cal­ly mur­der­ing any­one who might have stood in his way.

FTR#‘s 1388, 1389 and 1390 The Future: Technology Theocracy and The Thousand-Year Reich, Parts 1, 2 and 3

First, the dis­cus­sion focus­es on the con­flict between cor­po­rate prof­its and both sub­stan­tial wages and ben­e­fits and strong envi­ron­men­tal pro­tec­tion pol­i­cy. This con­flict results in an ele­ment of cog­ni­tive dis­so­nance on the part of most peo­ple (who must work for a liv­ing.) In order to max­i­mize prof­it, dis­com­fort must be cor­re­spond­ing­ly max­i­mized as well.

Human behav­ior is dic­tat­ed large­ly by two prin­ci­ples that psy­chol­o­gists call the plea­sure prin­ci­ple and the real­i­ty prin­ci­ple. In a nut­shell: peo­ple do what makes them feel good. When they feel bad, they must alter their envi­ron­ment in such a way as to remove the dis­com­fort. They can either change their exter­nal envi­ron­ment or their inter­nal envi­ron­ment. Polit­i­cal action, labor and envi­ron­men­tal orga­niz­ing would cer­tain­ly bring change that would relieve social and envi­ron­men­tal dis­tress. That is not as prof­itable as hold­ing down wages and prof­its. Prof­its can be max­i­mized if peo­ple can be made to alter their inter­nal envi­ron­ment in such a way as to endure or even enjoy dis­com­fort (what Mr. Emory refers to as learn­ing “to enjoy sit­ting on a tack.”)

There are a vari­ety of ways of get­ting peo­ple to attempt this. If they are ine­bri­at­ed on drugs or alco­hol, their pain will be atten­u­at­ed (at least tem­porar­i­ly) and their will to resist blunt­ed. In this con­text, opi­um would be “the reli­gion of the peo­ple.” The real thing might be even bet­ter.

The analy­sis cen­ters on a soci­ety in which peo­ple would be made into “true believ­ers,” through a com­bi­na­tion of total­i­tar­i­an polit­i­cal con­trol and tech­no­log­i­cal­ly-rein­forced fun­da­men­tal­ist reli­gion. Denom­i­na­tion­al affil­i­a­tion of sub­ject nations and indi­vid­u­als may well remain diverse, but the foun­da­tion and source of polit­i­cal pow­er would be tremen­dous­ly pow­er­ful, tech­no­log­i­cal­ly sophis­ti­cat­ed mil­i­tary weapons of mass destruc­tion. Most impor­tant­ly, the very exis­tence of these weapons would be unknown to the vast major­i­ty of peo­ple. An admin­is­tra­tive elite would exer­cise polit­i­cal pow­er. This elite would be reli­gious, polit­i­cal and mil­i­tary in nature — Mr. Emory char­ac­ter­izes them as “priest-spies.” They would have at least lim­it­ed knowl­edge of the pre­vail­ing mil­i­tary tech­nol­o­gy, as well as advanced tac­ti­cal knowl­edge of its appli­ca­tion.

Their “parish­ioners,” on the oth­er hand, would see (and would be encour­aged and oblig­at­ed to see) the dev­as­tat­ing appli­ca­tion of the destruc­tive tech­nol­o­gy as “mir­a­cles.” Groups or indi­vid­u­als who devi­at­ed from the pre­scribed path would be pun­ished with the tech­nol­o­gy and this, again, would be seen by a naive pop­u­lace as ret­ri­bu­tion by some super­nat­ur­al enti­ty. (It should be not­ed that New Age reli­gions are by no means immune to this kind of exploita­tion and seduc­tion by fas­cist ele­ments.)

Weapons tech­nol­o­gy that might be involved would include genet­i­cal­ly-engi­neered micro-organ­isms (“the plagues of Egypt”), Tes­la tech­nol­o­gy to cause earth­quakes or alter the weath­er (“God’s pun­ish­ment on the wicked”), long dis­tance mind-con­trol tech­niques involv­ing elec­tro­mag­net­ic radi­a­tion (“the Voice of the Lord”). (Note: this lec­ture was giv­en before infor­ma­tion about Project HAARP became pub­lic.) In L‑1 evi­dence is pre­sent­ed that so-called “fly­ing saucers” are real and do not come from out­er space. They are advanced aero­nau­ti­cal devices, whose devel­op­ment began with pro­to­types flown by the Ger­mans dur­ing the clos­ing stages of World War II. They were fur­ther devel­oped by the West­ern Allies in the years after the war. There is also sub­stan­tial evi­dence of attempts by ele­ments of the intel­li­gence com­mu­ni­ty to cre­ate belief in space aliens. With this in mind, Mr. Emory dis­cuss­es the pos­si­ble uses of “UFOs” and “aliens” in the fas­cist tech­no-theoc­ra­cy described above.

 . . . . On his new assign­ment, Vin­son would soon learn that the CIA’s projects out of Site 51 includ­ed exper­i­men­tal air­craft shaped like saucers. The same was true at the CIA’s oth­er base at Roswell, New Mex­i­co, where the C‑54 car­ry­ing the sec­ond Oswald had land­ed. Both Site 51 and Roswell were home to “fly­ing saucers” that peo­ple saw peri­od­i­cal­ly in the area.

FTR#1384 The Joshua Haldeman, Part 4

Intro­duc­tion: Although not about Josua Halde­man (Musk’s grand­fa­ther), per se, this pro­gram flesh­es out how main­stream media out­lets are sourc­ing some of the most out­landish b.s. about space aliens hav­ing vis­it­ed us, yad­da yad­da yad­da.

This mate­r­i­al is to be con­sid­ered against the back­ground of Halde­man, the search for “ancient civ­i­liza­tions,” Apartheid South Africa as a direct exten­sion of the NSDAP (the Nazi par­ty under Hitler) and the prep­ping of the pub­lic for “ET Con­tact” b.s.

Pro­gram High­lights Include: Review of “The Nine;” Review of Joshua Halde­man’s “Lost Civilization/White Suprema­cist” ide­ol­o­gy; The fact that all of this orig­i­nates with the tabloid The Week­ly World News!

Important Discussion with the Brilliant Tom O’Neill

Dav­e’s Patre­on plat­form fea­tures a long dis­cus­sion with Tom O’Neill, the author of “Chaos,” one of the most impor­tant books ever writ­ten. Bar­ring a sea change, Tom’s book is the epi­taph for the Unit­ed States and our civ­i­liza­tion. As peo­ple with an oblig­a­tion to our descen­dants, we have the respon­si­bil­i­ty to pre­serve a record of the events lead­ing to the col­lapse of our social and polit­i­cal milieu. There is no bet­ter way of ful­fill­ing that oblig­a­tion than by obtain­ing the lat­est flash dri­ve, con­tain­ing all of Dav­e’s 45+ years on the air and a library of old anti-fas­cist books.

FTR#‘s 1379 & 1380: Team Trump Takes the Field, Parts 5 and 6

Intro­duc­tion: NB: This descrip­tion con­tains mate­r­i­al not avail­able in the orig­i­nal.

These pro­grams high­light a dis­turb­ing syn­the­sis of sub­stan­tive, fac­tu­al inquiries (the assas­si­na­tions of JFK, MLK and RFK, Sr.) with pro­to-fascis­tic ancient aliens built the pyra­mids, ancient astro­nauts, Eric von Daniken bs.

Holo­caust deniers have long hov­ered around the edges of the assas­si­na­tion research. Once one real­izes that, in fact, Lee Har­vey Oswald was a pat­sy in the JFK assas­si­na­tion, James Earl Ray was a pat­sy in the assas­si­na­tion of Mar­tin Luther King and Sirhan Sirhan was a [mind-con­trolled] pat­sy in the assas­si­na­tion of RFK, Sr. it leaves many in a rel­a­tivis­tic political/intellectual uni­verse. They won­der: “Maybe the Holo­caust did­n’t hap­pen?”

Dis­cus­sion and Analy­sis Includes: Amaryl­lis Fox’s role as intel­li­gence advis­er to the Office of Man­age­ment and Bud­get and the Pres­i­den­t’s For­eign Intel­li­gence Review Board; Tul­si Gab­bard’s sup­port for Indi­a’s attack on Pak­istan; Mod­i’s net­work­ing with the RSS; An inci­sive arti­cle not­ing the pos­si­bil­i­ty of U.S. and/or U.K involve­ment in the ter­ror­ist inci­dent in Kash­mir; Review of the rela­tion­ship between RFK, Jr. daugh­ter-in-law and cam­paign man­ag­er Amaryl­lis Fox and Tul­si Gab­bard; Tul­si Gab­bard’s pro­found rela­tion­ship with the Hin­dut­va fas­cist orga­ni­za­tion RSS (the orga­ni­za­tion that assas­si­nat­ed Mahat­ma Gand­hi); Review of the assas­si­na­tion of Mahat­ma Gand­hi; Review of Gab­bard’s mem­ber­ship in the Hare Krish­na Cult; Dis­cus­sion of the New Age, the UFO dis­in­for­ma­tion gam­bit; the fascist/Nazi roots of the alter­na­tive archaeology/“Our Broth­ers from Space” meme; The recent pre­sen­ta­tion of dis­in­for­ma­tion con­cern­ing “cham­bers beneath the Pyra­mids of Egypt” (prov­ing that Space Aliens built the Pyra­mids); the approval of that bs by numer­ous fig­ures in “Team Trump” includ­ing Anna Pauli­na Luna, head­ing up “inquiries” into the assas­si­na­tions of JFK, RFK, MLK, 9/11, UFO’s; Jef­frey Epstein.


FTR#1321 The Assassination of John Lennon

Intro­duc­tion: As the title sug­gests, this pro­gram sets forth facts about John Lennon’s mur­der.

Key Points of Dis­cus­sion of Lennon’s Killing Include: The fact that the bul­lets that killed Lennon entered from his left side, where­as pat­sy Mark David Chap­man was on Lennon’s right; The door­man at Lennon’s res­i­dence, who was stand­ing on Lennon’s left was José San­jenís Per­do­mo, a “for­mer” oper­a­tive for the CIA; Per­do­mo’s back­ground in the CIA’s Bay of Pigs oper­a­tion and pri­or ser­vice as a chief of police in pre-Cas­tro Cuba; Per­do­mo’s alleged links to Water­gate bur­glar and JFK assas­si­na­tion par­tic­i­pant Frank Stur­gis; Per­do­mo’s six-hours of con­ver­sa­tion with Chap­man pri­or Lennon’s return from the record­ing stu­dio; an eye­wit­ness’s alle­ga­tion that Per­do­mo did the shoot­ing; Per­do­mo’s seiz­ing of the alleged mur­der weapon, which was not test­ed for fin­ger­prints; Chap­man’s par­tic­i­pa­tion in a music club in Hawaii, to which Amer­i­can Nazi, Rea­gan shoot­ing pat­sy and Bush asso­ciate John Hinck­ley, Jr. also belonged; The extreme­ly unlike­ly pos­si­bil­i­ty that Chap­man could have per­formed the marks­man­ship required to kill Lennon; The pos­si­bil­i­ty that Chap­man may have been a mind-con­trolled pat­sy; Chap­man’s prison vis­its by MKULTRA asso­ciates Bernard Dia­mond and Nathan Kline; Yoko Ono’s cre­ma­tion of Lennon’s corpse with­in 36 hours of the killing; Ono’s strong links to the Yasu­da Zaibat­su; Ono’s par­tic­i­pa­tion in the recon­se­cra­tion of a Japan­ese Shin­to tem­ple, destroyed in the after­math of the attack on Pearl Har­bor; Ono’s asso­ci­a­tion with an antique deal­er and alleged CIA con­tract agent.
