The American medical system has gone rogue! It is a vast Ponzi scheme! How do I know I owned and operated three niche medical practices and exited the industry after 24 years, in December 2020? The COVID scamdemic was a wake-up call for me. The good that came out of it is that I launched a medical podcast called www.MedicalTruthPodcast.com, and I invited Dr. Bowden to come on to the podcast as a guest so she could expose this mess. We are at the point of no return in the medical industry!
I think frankly well beyond. 3 years beyond at the least. I know of no nation able to overthrow an Establishment without a twin Establishment arising. In our civilizational case we have 600 years of the wrong highway at high speed. n Ellul the characteristics of the technical phenomenon are Autonomy, Unity, Universality, Totalization. Technique obeys a specific rationality. The characteristics of technical progress are self-augmentation, automization, absence of limits, casual progression, a tendency toward acceleration, disparity, and ambivalence. Nevertheless, technique is lacking in one of the essential characteristics found in any organized ensemble, reaction. It is not yet able to control its errors and dysfunctions, to react on its source and modify itself. However, we may now be in the presence of the progressive elaboration of such a reactive capability. The ethical problem, that is human behavior, can only be considered in relation to this system, not in relation to some particular technical object or other. Learning how to use “rightly” or “do good” with such and such a technique does not much matter, since each technique can only be interpreted within the ensemble. If technique is a milieu and a system, the ethical problem can only be posed in terms of this global operation. Behavior and particular choices no longer have much significance. What is required is thus a global change in our habits or values, the rediscovery of either an existential ethics or a new ontology.
Berdyaev writes - The rationalisation, the technisation, the machinisation of the whole of human life and of the human soul itself cannot but provoke a reaction against itself. This reaction existed during the XIX Century. The romantics always protested against the might of technology, the dissociating of the organic wholeness, and they appealed to nature, to the elemental foundation within man. A strident protest against technology was made by Ruskin. He did not want to reconcile even with the railroad and he journeyed in a carriage parallel to the rail tracks. The romantic reaction against technology is understandable and even indispensible, but it is impotent, it either does not decide the problem or it resolves it too easily. To return to former times, to the organic lifestyle, to the patriarchal relationships, to the old forms of the familial economy and handicrafts, to the life with nature, with the land, with plants and animals, is impossible. And indeed this return would be undesirable, for it is connected with an exploitive use of people and animals. In this is the tragedy of the position. And it remains but for spirit creatively to define its own relationship towards technology and towards the new epoch, to master technology in the name of its own ends. Christianity ought creatively to define an attitude towards the new actuality. It cannot be too optimistic. But it also cannot run away from the human reality. This presupposes an exertion of spirituality, an intensification of the inner spiritual life. Soul-emotive sentimentalism within Christianity has become already impossible. Soulful emotionality cannot bear up under the harsh reality. Indifference is possible only for the hardened, the obdurate spirit. Spirit can be an organiser, it can master the technical for its own spiritual ends, but it would have to resist itself being turned into a tool of the organising technical process. In this is the tragedy of spirit.
Not having done any research on the architecture of Washington DC before going there about sixteen years ago I was stunned and very surprised at the classical style buildings. Didn't fit with my idea of American architecture.
Am I dreaming or did I also see the tinfoil turkey moon landing buggy in the space museum?

It's one way to get people off drugs by the populace having lost trust in the medical drug pushers.
Big pharma was a bit short sighted unless it will be online AI that does the prescribing now, with drugs delivered by Amazon.

Greg Reese from Info Wars summed up the Moon Landing perfectly with this video https://gregreese.substack.com/p/putin-told-moon-landing-photos-are?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=email-half-post&r=20l64t and a documentary that you will enjoy about the Fake Moon Landing is called a Funny Thing Happened on The Way to the Moon https://rumble.com/vqjb2f-a-funny-thing-happened-on-the-way-to-the-moon.html I don't trust our Government as Far as I can throw them, never did, never will they are a corrupt Cartel!
