Basecamp for Men E97: The Bottom Side of the Rock

E97: The Bottom Side of the Rock with Special Guest author Marie Jones

 

E97 Introduction

Two quotes to start off. One from George Carlin who said “I have certain rules. My first rule, I don’t believe anything the government tells me.”

And another from Aldous Huxley who said “The propagandist’s purpose is to make one set of people forget that certain other sets of people are human.”

Here in Huxley’s quote, we see a way to detect the work of the Deep State’s media propaganda. Are you moving a certain group of people beneath you? Is the other side stupid or racist or uniformed or crazy? Or is this what you are being told to believe by propagandists?

We have clearly been swimming in disinformation and I believe it is making us sick. And most are only vaguely aware of it. Or the left is only aware of the propaganda of the right and vice versa. We seem to be, as a whole, quite poor at detecting spin that is inside our own silo.

I find it useful to assume anything coming out of MSM is spin. There is no objective journalism any longer on the mainstream airwaves. WE THE PEOPLE know this. More and more are coming to terms with it.

My guest today has a quote in her book: “Covid was one big mess of misinformation, disinformation, progaganda, and spin. Beneath it all, were people trying to dog paddle and not drown in the chorus of chaos, waiting for facts that only time will tell.”

I think this captures the past year and a half in succinct fashion. We are still trying to make sense of it as the facts have been slow to roll in. Of course, MSM has not assisted us in understanding the situation but, then again, that is not their roll, is it? Quite the opposite.

I saw a great little post from Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers. She says “The global corporate shill press is NOT the real media. Individuals with their pens, phones, computers, and cameras are the real media.”

I completely agree and we are seeing an activated and awakened citizenry right now. I would also add microphones and podcasts to that list of tools of WE THE PEOPLE. It is how we are able to counter the deception campaign that has been waged against us. We seek the truth, have conversations, report what we find, and let you decide for yourself who seeking to empower and who is seeking to disempower you.

As they say We Are the News now. My guest today is one such citizen journalist and an excellent and prolific writer.

Basecamp for Men E96: Everyday Heroes

E96 Everyday Heroes with Special Guest Victoria Palmer

 

E96 Introduction-

As a former athlete, I highly value courage. I always have. As a kid, I saw athletes as warriors who lived at the edge of what they thought they were capable of doing.

I still count Muhammad Ali as one of my favorite Americans. As a man who spoke truth to power, I know that the champ would have had some pointed words to give to those that perpetrate the official Covid-19 narrative. Can you imagine a young Ali if he were asked about Tony Fauci or Bill Gates and what he thought of their opinions? I can just see Ali laying into their hypocrisy in his inimitable style and swagger. Do you think Muhammad Ali would have lined up to get vaccinated? Ha! Yeah right.

Or how about the great George Carlin? Do you think he would have complied with the narrative and the mandates? Or eviscerated the lies and have you laughing hysterically while he did it! George would have had a field day with this and we all know it.

I still take my cues from those with courage although it looks different today. I don‘t look to athletes anymore.  Today I admire people who can stand in and express their values and their principles.  Especially when those values are courage and freedom, which is at the core of who I am as a man.

Heroic people come in all shapes and sizes. Everyday hero’s that remind us of something. That as Americans, we carry this courage and a love freedom in our DNA.  It is certainly active and alive in one part of our tribe. And is coming like a wave, an activation key that has waited for the right sequence, to further awaken WE THE PEOPLE.

My guest today, is one such everyday hero.
