* Black-pilled? Action Your Outrage

~ tips, tactics and strategy 

So, after gathering a great deal of information, what if you’re so black-pilled you’re becoming anxious or pessimistic, or worse? How to action those feelings in healthy, effective ways?

Citizen Ninja: Stand up to Power by Mary Baker is an excellent primer and a quick read (free limited preview online). “A guide for budding activists—of any age—who want to engage but don’t know how to start, what to do, or how to think about political activism.” During a lengthy, enjoyable interview, Baker describes how to become efficient activists, how to manage emotions, maintain composure and self restraint, how to recognize bully techniques, and how to respond instead of react. She describes four types of people (uninformed, informed, misinformed and partisan) and how to assess each one. The confident public speaker knows that engagement is strategic and preparation is key; the effective influencer employs a variety of methods which build respect, rapport and positive civil discourse. When disrupting obedience one does so in the kindest way possible. And so much more. (1)

Speaking out loud isn’t for everyone—just ask Banksy. Pepper a community with quickie hits of information, there are plenty of downloadable resources online. (2)(3)(4). Or, with basic computer skills and a printer, make your own. Place leaflets on windshields in busy parking lots. Or staple them to wooden telephone poles. Photocopy memes and pin them on community notice boards, their visual messages are impactful and often very funny.  

Dollar stores sell washable coloured chalk: write on sidewalks where there’s lots of foot traffic, streetcorners where people wait for the green light, places where drivers have to sit idle in heavy traffic. Chalk it up at key locations: media outlets, post offices, shopping malls, libraries, bus stops, hospitals and clinics. Some phrases to consider: TheyLied.ca – Expose Bad Pharma—Bring Our Normal Back—Corruption Ends Now—Stop Being Complicit—Blow the Whistle—Stand Up—Truth Matters. If you have some disposable income, place an advert in the local paper or rent a billboard on a busy highway. 

If working alone isn’t your thing then find a buddy; efforts are easily synchronized and trust levels are high. Or if your motto is “the more the merrier”, organize into a freedom pod. (5) Whatever your preference, experienced activists have uploaded plenty of resources to guide the way. (6)(7)(8) Meet weekly to share progress and set goals.

We know that the Commons, that big majority, are often apolitical. Even when life gets really hard, many cling to the status quo. They’re disinterested and unmotivated and some are even antagonistic. But with the right tactics and nimble strategy they can be moved to care. This is what happened in the 1990s during the Otpor! movement in then-Yugoslavia (Otpor! means Resistance). Under the guidance and leadership of Srda Popovic, a 25-year-old student, Serbians peacefully ousted long-term strongman, Slobodan Milosevic. Popovic has written a book about it (9) and now teaches other democracy movements around the globe. (his email: psrdja@gmail.com

Some of his advice: 

~ When you have a vision for tomorrow, you can’t pick the big cataclysmic fight as your first confrontation. Start by picking easy fights, building a reputation and a name. 

~ Pick battles big enough to matter but small enough to win. Success is a series of small acts done well with goals achieved. 

~ Proper revolutions are not cataclysmic explosions, they are long, controlled burns. 

~ Show how the state’s propaganda is ridiculous. Public speeches were given by youth and grandmothers who were being called terrorists.

~ Listen to people, find out what they care about and fight your battle in that general vicinity. 

~ Make your movement relatable to the widest number of people at all times.

~ You know you’re on the winning track when two or more groups that have nothing to do with one another, or are normally antagonistic, decide to join together for their mutual benefit. 

Notes from the documentary about Otpor!, Bringing Down a Dictator 

Popovic: “Everything we did must have a dose of humour, because I’m joking and authorities are only getting angry. They’re only showing only one face—anger—and I’m always, again, with another joke, with another action, with another positive message to divide their audience…” (10)

Humour—also called laughtivism—offers a satisfying, low-cost point of entry for everyone. Some tactics that have been used: Russians placed toys holding protest signs in the streets; Syrians poured buckets of red dye in all their fountains; Poles buried loudspeakers, which played anti-government messages, in piles of excrement requiring police to dig into them in order to silence them; Syrians wrote messages critical of Bashar al-Assad on hundreds of ping-pong balls and let them loose on steep streets requiring police to scurry after them. 

The only thing that trumps fear is laughter. Laughter is power. Police forces spend time training on how to deal with violent people and zero time on how to deal with funny, laughing people. 

Pit your strong points against your enemy’s weak points.

~ Sun Tzu 

A topical example: the weakest point of globalism is its obsession with digital enslavement; without cyberspace, tyranny is impossible to accomplish; information which can be passed hand to hand—like Druthers, pamphlets, leaflets—is a strong point because it evades surveillance, censorship and cancellation. 

Audacious slogans captivated the general mood with remarkable effect during Otpor!. “He’s finished” caught on like wildfire and soon the phrase was everywhere, on t-shirts, bumper stickers and hand-held flags. Even though the dictator was still in power, the slogan contained determination and optimism and became a lucky talisman. 

In its early days, Otpor!’s numbers were small so they created some mystique to give the impression of an extensive organization by making a simple logo of a solidarity fist. 

To introduce themselves, they tossed hundreds of stark, black and white leaflets bearing their logo from the tops of hi-rises which rained down on busy streets below, and videotaped it. The leaflets bore simple messages: Fight the System; Resistance because I love Serbia; Freedom.

Cities such as Belgrade were black holes—hard to penetrate because telecommunications had everyone captured. But small towns turned out to be big supporters so Otpor! focused efforts there. The movement grew from the outside in. And though Otpor! had a leader, operations became so decentralized that tyrannical forces didn’t know who should be attacked. 

Popovic: “I think we succeeded because we simply love life more than them. Generally, those guys were the preachers of death. Their hatred, their propaganda, their language, smelled like death. And we won because we love life more. We decided to love life and you can’t beat life. So this is what Otpor! did, we were a group of fans of life.” 

Otpor!’ is now global. CANVAS, the Center for Applied Non-Violent Actions and Strategies, has worked with pro-democracy activists in over 50 countries. CANVAS emphasizes the importance of “unity, nonviolent discipline and planning” as the keys to success: “Power in society is not fixed, and can shift very swiftly from one social group to another. It can become fragile and can be redistributed, especially in non-democratic regimes. Ultimately, power in society comes from the obedience of the people. And those people – each of whom is individually a small source of power – can change their minds, and refuse to follow commands.” (11)

When it comes to globalists trying to push paradigm shifts that will consolidate their power, exclude voters, and drastically harm humanity’s future, the fact that they are ignoring Newton’s 3rd Law is a profound weak point: “Whenever one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first. For every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.” 

Whether action is taken by the individual citizen ninja, or the action is collective like Otpor!, there is no time to waste. Get offline and get out into the real world. When you channel outrage in safe, healthy and effective ways it brings a great deal of relief, hope and energy. Which is far better than worry and anxiety! 

Work local and start now.

* COVID WAS A PLANDEMIC

Did you know that tabletop wargaming has been going on for decades? Or that sociopathic so-called ‘scientists’ are busy beavering away in military-funded labs around the world, including Wuhan, China, making bioweapons because ‘their enemies’ might do it first? And did you know that over the decades the pharmaceutical industry has been captured by militaristic paranoia? If your answers are ‘No’ then it’s time to do some research.

You could start here with Whitney Webb’s timely article providing background and context.

TWO MONTHS BEFORE COVID WAS ANNOUNCED, key players gathered for Event 201 to make plans to manage a global pandemic. Two months later, like magic, a “deadly” virus arrives, coordinated global lockdowns roll out smoothly, and world’s people were terrorized into compliance. We had to take an experimental jab filled with ‘new technology’ junk they sold as “safe and effective”.

The following are excerpts from ‘The Real Anthony Fauci’ by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Exhaustively researched and annotated, scrupulous attention to facts and documentation, it’s the kind of revelatory book that only comes along once in a century. I read the 450+ page book TWICE so you don’t have to.

“Participants included a group of high-ranking kahunas from the World Bank, the World Economic Forum, Bloomberg/Johns Hopkins University, the CDC, various media powerhouses, the Chinese government, a former CIA/NSA director, vaccine maker Johnson & Johnson, the globe’s largest pharmaceutical company; finance and biosecurity industry chieftains, and the president of Edelman, the world’s largest PR firm.

“War games became instruments for imposing obedience. Dark Winter, Atlantic Storm, and Global Mercury were only three of over a dozen Germ Games staged by military, medical, and intelligence planners leading up to COVID-19. Each of the Kafkaesque exercises became uncanny predictors of a dystopian age that pandemic planners dubbed the ‘New Normal’.”

“The consistent feature is an affinity for militarizing medicine and introducing centralized autocratic governance. Each rehearsal ends with the same grim punchline: the global pandemic is an excuse to justify the imposition of tyranny and coerced vaccination.

“The panelists role-played strategies for co-opting the world’s most influential political institutions, subverting democratic governance, and positioning themselves as unelected rulers of the emerging authoritarian regime. They practised techniques for ruthlessly controlling dissent, expression and movement, and degrading civil rights, autonomy, and sovereignty. The Gates simulation focused on deploying the usual psyops retinue of propaganda, surveillance, censorship, isolation, and political and social control to manage the pandemic. The official eighty-nine page summary is a miracle of fortune-telling—an uncannily precise month-by-month prediction of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic.”

“After 9/11, “the War on Terror triggered a tectonic shift in global security priorities and elephantine ripples in defense spending patterns across the globe as open democracies began shifting to a security state footing. The revival in US government interest in germ warfare opened new opportunities. The US bio-defense budget went from $137 million in 1997 to $14.5 billion for 2001-2004. Between 2001 and 2014, the US spent around $80 billion on bio-defense. Since germ weaponry was still illegal, vaccines became a critical euphemism for the revival of the multi-billion dollar bioweapons industry.”    

“The Pentagon could not get into compliance with the Biological Weapons Convention which limited the Pentagon’s freedom to undertake new research programs, particularly those referred to as “the leading edge of bio-defense”. So then-VP Dick Cheney transferred the Pentagon’s research to the National Institutes of Health, specifically to NIAID. By 2004, the transfer was complete and NIAID was transformed into an arm of the defense sector. This made NIAID Director Anthony Fauci a  major player in biodefense and germ warfare.” 

[During his first term] Trump’s Health officials complained “that they found themselves marginalized as Operation Warp Speed devolved into a partnership between the military and the pharmaceutical industry.”  Physician and biological warfare expert, Meryl Nass, MD.: “Coercion should be the last strategy to consider in a pandemic. If you have a remedy that works, people will flock to it. It’s troubling that the first and only option was creating a police state.”  

 

* KICLEI UPDATE

Regular readers will recall the Gazette report that CAO McCulloch agreed to have a conversation with KICLEI’s Maggie Hope Braun. It was hoped she would inform him about sneaky globalist plans: climate action disguises systematic dismantling of democratic governance to weaken municipalities. Unfortunately, as soon as KICLEI was making some headway, it was attacked by the McMedia, in particular the National Post, which maligned and smeared using falsehoods, a common silencing tactic these days. Braun refuted the falsehoods but the stress took its toll. Long story short, for now, no conversation with the CAO. 

Braun reported: “At the FCM [Federation of Canadian Municipalities] conference, an ICLEI session labelled our message as “misinformation”. When councillors asked for a response to our documented concerns, ICLEI refused—saying even acknowledging our questions would “give them attention.” Let that sink in. “Elected officials are being told not to examine questions of jurisdiction, consent, or cost—because the answers might empower their communities. But it’s not working. Across the country, councillors are stepping up. 

“In Alberta, our issues became election issues. We are breaking through. And they know it. Wheatland County the Town of Vermilion and others withdrew from FCM, setting a precedent for others to follow. Lethbridge challenged PCP/IPCC targets, recommending a 20% GHG reduction instead of 40%–saving $63 million in projected carbon credit costs. In B.C., we exposed the truth: the Net-Zero Action Charter frameworks are voluntary, not mandatoryThat opens the door for respectful withdrawals and local debate. 

Reflecting on 2025 challenges, Braun said, “If you’re feeling burnt out or behind—so am I. But none of us are alone. Every email, delegation, and conversation you had this year helped lay a foundation for something powerful.”

* BLOOD PLASMA INFECTED WITH AIDS VIRUS SOLD TO BIG PHARMA

AS REPORTED BY SEASONED JOURNALIST, PATRICK BROWN, IN HIS BOOK, BUTTERFLY MIND ~ REVOLUTION, RECOVERY, AND ONE REPORTER’S ROAD TO UNDERSTANDING CHINA

Over many months and many social media platforms I’ve heard people claim that some vaccines contain the AIDS virus. Since I had no way to verify their assertions I put that information in the “possibly true, possibly fear-mongering” file. Then I read Brown’s book.

DIRECT QUOTE:

“Dr. Gao Yaojie came to my office one afternoon in 2004 to talk about HIV-AIDS. A small-town gynecologist, [she] sounded the alarm in 1996 when many of her patients began to show symptoms that she was shocked to recognize as HIV infection. Her patients were poor villagers with no exposure to intravenous drugs, prostitution, or other common routes of HIV transmission. She realized that they had been infected while selling their own blood. When she reported the outbreak to the provincial health department, instead of shutting down the blood-collection industry that was spreading the disease, officials tried to shut up Dr. Gao.

“There is no HIV-AIDS in Henan Province,” the head of the Henan public health department, Liu Quanxi, told local journalists who asked about an outbreak of “a strange illness”. As head of the department, Liu Quanxi had organized the spread of for-profit blood-collection stations in Henan, and many of them were owned and run by members of his family. He also set up a private company, Wanda, to deal in blood products. The health department encouraged farmers to sell their blood, and boasted that the sale of blood plasma was providing revenue for the department.

“The blood-collecting stations were filthy, and the way they were run guaranteed that enormous numbers of people would be infected. The end product was blood plasma that was sold to large pharmaceutical companies. Eight hundred cubic centimeters of blood was drawn from each donor and mixed with other donors’ blood [!!!!!!] in a large centrifuge. The machine separated the blood plasma from the red and white blood cells, which then were re-injected into the donors, so that they could give blood more frequently.

“It is, perhaps, understandable that poor peasants in a remote inland province of China were unaware in the 1990s of the dangers of being injected with other people’s blood. It is inconceivable, however, that the head of the Department of Health and other officials did not know how HIV-AIDS was transmitted, and how dangerous the re-injection of commingled blood cells was. Indeed, their whole business model was based on the notion that seventy million peasants, isolated from the normal channels of infection, represented an enormously valuable reservoir of safe blood.”

“”In China the very biggest problem is telling lies,” said Dr. Gao. Low-level officials lie to high-level officials to protect themselves, and high-level officials lie to their superiors. It’s a frightening problem. The liars are promoted.” Dr. Gao has won national and international awards for her work, but in Henan she is treated like a criminal, and members of her family are harassed and persecuted.”

* IVERMECTIN won the Nobel Prize

You know three things for sure when your local pharmacist publishes dis/misinformation about Ivermectin. 

1) S/he isn’t well informed. 

2) S/he is owned by big pharma and must repeat the official corporate line we all heard during the COVID scamdemic: ‘Ivermectin is for horses and anybody who would take it is basically stupid and bestial.’ 

3) They must think we’re all really, really dumb.

The Truth About Ivermectin: 

Ivermectin won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2015 for Physiology and Medicine; it’s been used for decades on humans and is one of the most effective drugs ever made. It has one of the highest safety ratings and one of the lowest injury/side effect profile. Though it’s particularly effective on ridding the body of parasites, many claim it has more positive benefits to health.

The reason big pharma didn’t want people trying IVERMECTIN during the COVID scamdemic, instead of their garbage mRNA gene altering concoction, was, of course, all about $$$$$ and power.  

Ivermectin, like many other drugs, is now a free market drug, meaning that the pharma patent on it has expired, meaning that without patent protection the drug is a free agent, it can be replicated by drug manufacturers who are free to sell it at a lower price. 

Questions arise: if a pharmacist were to go rogue and start telling people the truth, would s/he lose her licence to dispense pharma products and maybe her/his Pharmasave franchise, too? Just asking.

* What Would Ma Murray Think?

by B. H. Link (local professional writing under a pseudonym)

Some of us grew up in homes where grownups faithfully watched the evening news, read the daily city newspaper, and never thought to doubt how much was true. My dear mum spoke admiringly of “Peter” (Mansbridge, a former CBC news anchor) on a first-name basis; he was her trusted source for all things political. We later scoffed at those who would believe the ‘crazy talk’ on sources like U.S. Fox News. We felt informed about news events. Occasionally we’d come across people with ‘out there’ ideas, and an offhand dismissal seemed reasonable.

Little did we know.

Onward we venture into 2025 amid news from almost-endless sources worldwide. Strangely, free speech doesn’t feel very free anymore and we are too-often careful, even fearful, about voicing independent thoughts. Paradoxically it’s both easier and harder to find information AND to discern what appears to be true. With humility and courage we might question: What seems to be true? Who benefits from this message? Who funded this source? What kind of evidence is offered to support these ideas? Is it biased opinion, or an attempt to present more than one side for balance? What perspectives are being withheld, disparaged or dismissed, and why?

Media influence on our lives is HUGE; we can think we hold independent beliefs without realizing how some have been carefully fed to us over time. Simple slogans repeated strategically is a proven psychological manipulation technique. Accompanied by fear, even more powerful. Our attention is drawn to the ‘latest thing’; meanwhile far-reaching events occur behind the scenes and few notice.

The media was long considered an important check against those who might abuse power. Yet today reporters, announcers, editors and more from conventional media now cooperate with, and are generously funded by, governments and big corporations. Particularly Big Pharma. So a new term was coined: “censorship industrial complex”.

Rodney Palmer (now at Talk Nation Radio) is one of several whistleblowing journalists who testified at the National Citizens Inquiry (NCI). Referring to CBC misrepresentation of the Ottawa Freedom Convoy, he stated, “They took an exceptional moment to decide they would not be journalists, that instead they would be public health messengers … and the result is that Canada’s national broadcaster has morphed into a state broadcaster. And I worked in countries where there were state broadcasters – China, Syria, Malawi, North Korea – it’s promoting government policy without question, while censoring, belittling and shaming learned Canadians who dare to object and inform us of the truth. Bad journalism is incompetence but propaganda is a betrayal. And that’s what CBC has done, it betrayed us all.”   

Strong words. It’s worth questioning why we see no mention of the NCI on TV news, in the Sun or Province, or even in the BRLN. It was only an unprecedented citizen-funded, volunteer-organized inquiry with hundreds of witnesses exposing harmful and ongoing impacts of the Canadian Covid 19 response. Significant and relevant are understatements. And the MSM silence is deafening.
