Alexandra Marshall discusses what she calls the three apocalypses as framed by the ruling elite: coronavirus pandemic, climate change, and a coming cyber pandemic or "digital darkness". "Climate Change" has been a hard sell and "is the only narrative capable of achieving massive state land grabs and control of global food production." "Apocalypse Politics" is a favorite tool of Davos and the ultimate goal is to "induce a permanent war economy within democratic nations onto which global treaties can be grafted to justify the antiquated socialist dream of a global bureaucracy." She feels the coming cyber attacks are really going to hurt and cause greater damage than the government pandemic policies and climate politics, but beyond that, she is even more worried of a fourth apocalypse, that of a geopolitical conflict and war with China.

New Border w/ Todd Miller

James Kunstler returns to Geopolitics & Empire for an update on the "long emergency" and how the neo-Jacobin program is faring. He believes we are in the midst of a mass hysteria with the question being how to battle our way out of it. At the bottom of it all is the fact that techno-industrial economies have lost their mojo and are crashing, threatening to push us into a technological surveillance state. The cycle of politicians being able to get away with anything needs to be broken and the latest indictment by John Durham may contain seeds of hope. A very ugly struggle may ensue, which can include military conflict. He believes enough people will resist and put an end to the tyranny, that the techno-dystopia won't succeed because of energy restraints, though we will wake up to a different world which will include the collapse and contraction of cities.

About James Howard Kunstler
James Howard Kunstler says he wrote The Geography of Nowhere, “Because I believe a lot of people share my feelings about the tragic landscape of highway strips, parking lots, housing tracts, mega-malls, junked cities, and ravaged countryside that makes up the everyday environment where most Americans live and work.”

Home From Nowhere was a continuation of that discussion with an emphasis on the remedies. 

His next book in the series, The City in Mind: Notes on the Urban Condition, published by Simon & Schuster / Free Press, is a look a wide-ranging look at cities here and abroad, an inquiry into what makes them great (or miserable), and in particular what America is going to do with it’s mutilated cities.

This was followed by The Long Emergency, published by the Atlantic Monthly Press in 2005, is about the challenges posed by the coming permanent global oil crisis, climate change, and other “converging catastrophes of the 21st Century.” This was followed in 2012 by Too Much Magic: Wishful Thinking, Technology, and the Fate of the Nation which detailed the misplaced expectations that technological rescue remedies would fix the problems detailed in The Long Emergency.

His 2008 novel, World Made By Hand, was a fictional depiction of the post-oil American future. It eventually became a four part series that included The Witch of Hebron, A History of the Future, and (forthcoming in June 2016), The Harrows of Spring.

Mr. Kunstler is also the author of eight other novels including The Halloween Ball, An Embarrassment of Richesand Maggie Darling, a Modern Romance. He has been a regular contributor to the New York Times Sunday Magazine and Op-Ed page, where he has written on environmental and economic issues.

He has lectured at Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Princeton, Dartmouth, Cornell, MIT, RPI, the University of Virginia and many other colleges, and he has appeared before many professional organizations such as the AIA , the APA., and the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

James Kunstler: There Will Be Revolt Against the Neo-Jacobin Program, We'll See the End of This #230

This week on the global research News Hour, as the world gears up for the historic COP26 summit happening Oct 31 to Nov 12, we examine the negative sides of the elites and their non profit industrial complex and where the mechanisms put in place for decades will lead us in the age of COVID. For the bulk of the show, we are joined by the independent writer, journalist and environmental activist Cory Morningstar to describe the world’s fate in the face of the capitalist menace that continues its onslaught.

Promoting a New Tyranny under the Guise of Saving the Planet: A Conversation with Cory Morningstar

John Klyczek discusses the roots of the modern-day technocratic system of education. Beginning with its Prussian origins in Johann Gottlieb Fichte, Wilhelm Wundt's laboratory for psychological research, the Order of Skull and Bones, John Dewey, and John B. Watson, these systems are geared toward a collectivist model of workforce training and stimulus response psychology. Later on, UNESCO through Julian Huxley seeks to integrate the idea of eugenics into the education system. Through the decades buzzwords like "life-long learning" appear, which in reality refers to continual institutional re-training to keep up with the evolution of the global economy. He believes we are already under world government. He discusses how the purpose of the vaccine mandate in education is to really create the pretext for a blockchain Digital ID which then expands to a Social Credit System. He explains how the shocking real purpose of the politically correct "woke" movement is to categorize everybody to make it easier for the AI machine learning to data mine us. Given the current environment, he sees homeschooling as the best option.

An Autopsy on Liberal Feminism & American Islamophobia

On today's episode Brian and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss two sickening injustices of the capitalist economy -- landlords going after the children of the tenants they target for eviction & the ultra-wealthy keeping over $10 billion more of their inheritances in 2020 thanks to the Trump estate tax cuts! Why do we live in a system where children are evicted while the extremely rich get even richer?

Capitalist Vultures Cause Homelessness

On today's episode Brian and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss how Joe Manchin took his war on workers to new lows over the weekend as he announced on Fox News that he was pulling out of negotiations with the White House over the “Build Back Better” social programs. But these negotiations have long been a farce. From the beginning, Biden pursued a ridiculous strategy, praising Manchin in public instead of building pressure and offering concession after concession. Now the situation has reached an impasse that only mass struggle can break.
