Like any good prestidigitator, Macron made something valuable disappear: a watch of arguable expense and authenticity. Although, that deceit isn't the problem to which we must pay attention. Moreover, let's examine the lies that came after, the interference run by crony journalists to mitigate the damage of a billionaire neoliberal so out of touch with his constituents that he's managed to create a reenactment of the French Revolution. "Let them eat cake!" Or "ze bugs," rather. France writhes in the fires of historic riots, and the establishment media would, like with Macron's watch, prefer you to focus on some stupid detail rather than to engage with the classist colossus pillaging and stomping the wealth of our nations.
The problem in France is not changing the retirement age. A lesser distortion or awareness of facts might point to Macron's Draconian, undemocratic motion that forced that mandate through his parliament. But even that take would be an incomplete understanding, too. In truth, we're witnessing the breaking point of the French being bullied, jabbed and stripped of freedom after freedom by a psychopathic state influenced by Big Pharma, corrupt institutions like the WHO and plutocrats like Gates. That same brewing malcontent instigated truckers occupying the streets in Canada and the Dutch farmers refusing to surrender their familial lands. Unfortunately, the establishment's reaction to workers' protests remains consistent. When you can't win the argument, engage in character assassination and narrative control. Macron's classmate at the WEF academy, Trudeau, labelled protestors as populists, fascists, and racists. While childish and blunt behaviour, it works.
Beyond acknowledging the reality of the divide, which has always been about class, the culture war continues to be obstructed by the ignorance of most folk who refuse to even question their institutions. Canadians, in particular, continue to invest in systems that have revealed themselves as defunct, corrupt and duplicitous. For example, take this piece of propaganda recently promoted by Health Canada.
Do note that physical health, vitamins, exercise and all the free things in life still don't protect you, as well as isolation, masking, mental anguish, unrelenting paranoia, and medicalization, even despite the WHO revising their recommendations on who should and shouldn't be jabbed. Canada continues to lead the pack in the race to the intellectual bottom. Can we steal the gold medal from Sri Lanka? Probably, should Trudeau manage a fourth term. Indeed, much of the country's failure can be attributed to Trudeau, though the whole Western political edifice seems irredeemable. We have a finance minister who promised cuts and a balanced budget, only to change her outlook at the 11th hour and release one of the most bloated, squandering forecasts ever seen in Canada—a nod to Biden's Inflation Reduction Act. And what of the opposition? Well, depending on who you ask, Singh is either WEF or sitting quietly until his pension kicks in.
The Conservatives don't have the seats to challenge the Liberal government. Worse, they don't appear inclined to do so on issues that matter to the foundations of democracy: fundamental freedoms, sovereign rights, medical choice—in dying, vaccination or otherwise. Following another page from Marcon's political handbook, Trudeau has thrice pushed his unappealing censorship bill to the Senate. He seems determined to thrust like a desperate virgin until his authoritarian desire dribbles through. He is the most repulsive figure in Canadian history, yet his abettors are worse.
But, tragically, frustratingly, somebody must reach these people if we aim to correct the system. The smooth-brains drip-fed their surreality through Global News, CTV, and the Toronto Star are an essential slice of the electorate. Yet, I see signs of Trudeau's globalist artifice crumbling. Canada’s MSM have started to nip at the hand that feeds them. Whether through remorse over dereliction of journalistic duty or mounting disgust at Trudeau, these agencies adequately reported on Chinese election interference, Trudeau's lavish spending and the general sentiment of unrest, scarcity and fear in Canada.
People are waking up, and cognizance—recognizing the powers that abuse us—is the anathema of the modern oligarchy. The job of the awake remains to put aside our biases and hurt, a weight accumulated over three years of ostracization and attempted social genocide. We must be the peacekeepers our politicians pretend to be. Now is the time for the olive branches to be pruned and extended, when people fumble for the truth and the monstrous, ponderous system hasn't conceived a convincing distraction. AI will be wielded as the next tool against free thought, algorithms weaponized into psychological warfare of unimaginable ferocity. But at the moment, our collective cognitive dissonance seems at its peak, a fragile veil waiting to be shattered. Those who walk and speak in truth must be the hammer to break that delusion, catch those who collapse, and help them to travel the same road toward enlightenment.
