The Hidden Empire: How Facebook Became the World's Most Powerful $-Surveillance Brainwasher
By Tracy Turner
Human-Brain Bowling Balls for Bucks - Facebook Leering for Lucre
In the early 2000s, Facebook was a dorm-room project that rated the hotness of female dorm mates. It was a digital yearbook designed to make copious couplings of college students. Two and a half decades later, it has morphed and mutated, metastasized into something far more sinister cancer: a global surveillance brainwashing machine, a psychological indoctrination-Stockholm Syndrome manipulation engine, and a geopolitical psychiatric weapon.
With nearly 3 billion victims, Facebook is no longer just an anti-social network-it is a digital empire, a shadowy brain-prison force that propagates opinions, controls government tech oligarch narratives, and harvests data (preys on human desires) on an unprecedented scale.
Digital Tyranny: Unmasking Facebook, Google, Bing, & YouTube Censorship Indoctrination, and Geopolitical Puppetry

The Deception of Impartiality: A Disguise for Subjugation
The Illusion of Neutrality: Its objective is to achieve diversity in the audience. It is no secret that Facebook, Google, and YouTube claim their algorithms are bias-neutral. These algorithms are meticulously programmed to ensure compliance with a specific ideology. Journalists and Engineers working within these systems foster dissent and suspicion under the banner of ''fighting misinformation'' or ''combatting hate speech.'' The reality? These labels are vague and changed to achieve the goals of the platforms. The algorithms are partial. They are not unbiased. They actively seek to modify speech to support contravening views and restrict people to a specific point of view.
The invisible chains of silence: The majority do not know that hundreds of underpaid contractors from poor countries filter through the submitted content to make life-altering decisions that mold discourse. Exposed to traumatizing violence, these people are the overlooked components of the suppression system.

AI and Human Freedom: The Global Battle for Control Over the Mind and Free Will
Fred Gransville
The modern evolution of technology, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), has set the stage for a profound and unprecedented global struggle for human freedom. As AI becomes an integral part of every aspect of modern life, from the most mundane to the most intimate, the concept of individual freedom is being tested in ways we never thought possible.
From surveillance mind-control technologies that monitor every move to recommendation algorithms that shape beliefs and behaviors, AI is quietly rewriting the rules of society. These social movements spawned by AI are not confined to a specific region but guide a whole subset of global society. While the promises of convenience, speed, and ease are alluring, these so-called advancements come at a significant cost: the end of privacy, the indoctrination of thought, and, ultimately, the loss of human agency and dignity.
A Change in US Foreign Policy from Lies to Truth, from War to Peace
Paul Craig Roberts
Yesterday Trump began the task of his first term–the normalization of relations with Russia–which was blocked by the corrupt FBI’s “Russiagate” hoax, an act of treason for which executions should take place and, indeed, the utterly corrupt agency abolished.
The United States, to the chagrin of USAID-supported CNN, voted with Russia against a UN General Assembly revolution condemning Russia’s “invasion” of Ukraine.
CNN true to its reputation as the worst liar on earth found it “shocking” that the US aligned with Russia against the “free world” and aligned with “the aggressor in the war on the three-year anniversary of Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.” https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/24/politics/us-joins-russia-ukraine-un-vote/index.html
It seems that CNN is going to continue lying for the military/security complex even after CNN’s funding courtesy of the US taxpayers has been halted.
The Annexation of Texas, California, and New Mexico by the USA
Dr. Vladislav B. Sotirovic
The 1775−1783 American War of Independence
The American Revolution or the American War of Independence against British colonial lordship started in 1775 when the Thirteen Colonies began to fight for their political independence from London. In fact, fighting began at Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts, in April 1775. In June the colonies’ Continental Congress created a Continental Army under General George Washington. However, despite several defeats, and the loss of New York (former New Amsterdam) in September 1776, Washington hung on, and at Christmas 1776, with the successful crossing of the Delaware, won several battles. The campaign culminated in Saratoga in 1777. The final triumph was only assured, nevertheless, with the signing of a Franco-American alliance in 1778 that was joined by Spain in 1779. Reinforced by French troops followed by direct naval support, George Washington succeeded in forcing the British troops to surrender at Yorktown on October 19th, 1781. The resulting Treaty of Versailles in 1783 recognized the Great Lakes in the north and the Mississippi in the west as the state borders of the newly-born USA. In other words, by 1783 the original Thirteen Colonies had decisively established themselves as the new United States with enlarged territory up to the Mississippi River including Indian Reserve.
Role of Israeli Government, IDF, and Media in Weaponizing Antisemitism Accusations
Robert David
Free Speech and Free Press are Antisemitic in Netanyahu-Newspeak
The Israeli-Palestinian war is arguably one of the most complex and divisive subjects in international politics. Of particular concern over the last few years is the disturbing trend of observing periods of high violence, like the wars in Gaza, with an expectancy of a complete lack of criticism of the Israeli government's policies and military actions that is genocide. Such narratives, primitive political maneuvers were well established by the Israeli government and its military and have also been adopted by many sympathetic mainstream media to justify censorship, evade blame, and journalistically dismantle Israel's genocide.
Here’s What I Learned From Analyzing The New Cold War Every Day For Three Years Straight

Andrew Korybko's Newsletter
What ties these five trends together is Trump’s historic return to the presidency, his successful purge of the “deep state” that enabled him to pursue his long-sought “New Détente” with Russia, and Putin’s receptiveness to his American counterpart’s grand strategic plan of a comprehensive partnership.
I’m a Moscow-based American political analyst with a PhD. in Political Science from MGIMO, and this is my third yearly review of the New Cold War after I published my first and second on each anniversary of the special operation here and here. I’ve been analyzing this subject every day since 24 February 2022, beginning at now-defunct OneWorld till mid-2022 and continuing at my Substack to the present. Here’s what I learned from doing this daily for my third year straight:
Jobs Offshoring and Work Visas Are Means of Enriching Corporate Executives with “Performance bonuses”
Paul Craig Roberts
Jobs Offshoring and Work Visas Are Means of Enriching Corporate Executives with “Performance bonuses” for Replacing American Labor with Lower Paid Foreign Labor, thus Reducing Aggregate Demand in the US
From The Failure of Laissez Faire Capitalism and Economic Dissolution the West (Clarity Press, 2013)
“The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and immigration advocates, such as the American Immigration Lawyers Association, immediately went to work to defeat or to water down the amendment. Senator Grassley’s attempt to prevent American corporations from replacing American workers with foreigners on H-1B work visas in the midst of the most serious economic crisis since the Great Depression was met with outrage from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a business lobby determined to protect the multi-million dollar bonuses paid to American CEOs for reducing labor costs by replacing their American employees with foreign employees.”
Trump, Nukes, and Cartoons
By David Swanson
Wouldn’t it be nice if the war in Ukraine were entirely one side’s fault, if the U.S. had one political party that did everything perfectly, if USAID had only ever caused either benefit or harm, and if all the self-contradictory gibberish coming out of Trump’s pie hole were either lies or holy gospel? A lot of people sure seem to think so.
Here in the real world, things are ever so slightly more complex than in a cartoon. A war can develop through evil actions by two — count ’em — sides. And that’s not all. Those evil actions can be — gasp! — very different and unequal to each other. I know. I know. It makes the brain just throb, right?
An agency can both feed the hungry and help overthrow governments for imperialist thugs. It seems impossible, if only because costume designers will have no idea how to dress such an agency. And yet.
