This is Chapter 17 of my book, How to Dismantle an Empire. It continues Section FIVE: Lands of Milk and Money, which is about system change and reimagining how we’d want money to work. In this chapter, I look at the right size for sovereignty. In the years since I wrote it, so many of the global narratives I believed turned out to be psyops. I’d thought myself on the bleeding edge of radicalism. But even the alternative news was another means of control.
I finally got the energy to incorporate the changes here into my copy. This was by far the most heavily edited chapter, and the edits were interesting. Notably, the bits about the climate change psyop and trade blocs were removed. Also, I noted the reworking of the definitions of hamlet, villages, etc. I find these changes helpful in clarifying the structure of the economy you're envisioning.
Oh good, yes I tried to make the definitions consistent rather than using more than one name and confusing things. And yes, with climate change and viruses, I don't know what's real or what's been induced with geo-engineering or bioweapons/ poisons or what's been entirely made up with hype. What I know for certain is that both have been used to promote a one-world gov't through fear.
What my system engenders is local control over food, soil, the environment, and healthcare. If people believe in climate change or viruses, there's no harm in it. You don't need to convince them it's not real. They can channel their desire to do something into regenerative agriculture or supportive healthcare and social structures. And then they can gather metrics and compare notes with other commonwealths. The truth is bound to come out.
Appreciate you doing this, Mark. As I find more embarrassing misspellings (where was spellcheck when I needed it?) I am going to renew my InDesign subscription and see if I can put your version with the edits into a printed format I like for a second version. Glad that it's clarifying the structure! And congrats on your tiny home! It looks beautiful.
Speaking of spelling, I also incorporated the chapter 16 changes today, and I noticed you changed "frivolous" to "frivilous". That was the one change I didn't take, because I'm 99% certain "frivolous" is the correct spelling.
Oh thanks for that, I'm certain you're right and Goggled agrees. Wonder how that happened? Maybe I deleted a hyphen, as often get inserted in the copy, and went to far, replacing it with the wrong letter. Dunno, but thanks. I'll edit that in the Ch. 16 text. There were some real doozies in the original, though. I'm blaming dyslexia--and thinking too fast for my own good ;-)
I just realized that you posted chapter 16 back in 2023 before I had my own copy. The mistake was in your original book, but I must have corrected it when I made my copy.
I’ve been meaning to comment, just been busy! Love the title and the mathematics. Guessing it’s a bit of a”more or less” involved with the numbers right, and maybe different for rural vs urban vs jungle communities/neighbourhoods/etc? Also am I right in thinking this substack text is different from your published book as you say “revision of the chapter”?
PS have you done any film reviews of “Finding the Money” on MMT? I just started watching it today. Was a bit skeptical at first due to few things like focus on government as currency issue (when it’s private central banks), taking a loooing time to discuss interest and how banks create money out of nothing, and something just seems a bit weird I can’t put my finger on yet…but I like the historic anecdotes and like to challenge my brain with new economics ideas even if I’m not liking them at first lol. Haven’t finished it yet https://rumble.com/v6sovz1-finding-the-money-documentary-enjoy-and-share-thank-you-.html
Hello, LoWa! Yes, I did make some revisions to this chapter, mostly pulling back a little further in telling other people what to do. The book version looks at ways to join together in grassroots organizations to mitigate climate change. I wouldn't say that today, although my position is still that I don't know what's real and what's been weaponized.
I would not change the community sizes based on rural vs urban or jungle communities. I think we need some name (or the ability to translate into that name) that has no meaning OTHER than size of community. Then the difference would be how densely those communities are grouped, but you'd still be able to compare your 'hamlet' to another 'hamlet' around the world, although they may have different names.
Good to hear from you! I'm deep into writing the chapter in OMGdess on India and the Harappen Civilization and Aryan Invasion. Jumping into rabbit holes on the Rig Vedas and the 'indigenous Aryans' debate--which seems like justifying the Brahmins as the true Brits. 'You can't colonize us, we did it already and have gods who say so!' The linguistic clues are SO interesting. I might record the first part of it today and put it out. But the other voice in my head says to keep writing and don't record parts of it until the book itself is finished, or at least this whole chapter ending with your info on the Jagath Seths. I'll see which voice wins while I'm packing for my red eye back to Appalachia for a couple of weeks.
I’m bamboozled by Indian history myself as so many different versions of it and I don’t have a history / archaeology etc background to figure out what really happened (although things in more recent centuries seem easier to trace). I do enjoy hearing it all and trying to piece it though as well as everyone’s efforts to make sense of it (wish I had better Hindi to actually read stuff that’s ancient and complex). I almost fell off my chair seeing that A-Brahamanic idea you/someone posted somewhere. Holy moly - crazy if true!!
Interesting. It is always dificult, or impossible, to lay out a better system from scratch. I have been in the intentional communities scene for years and been disappointed for various reasons... the distance between the members dont disappear. From the initial excitement underneath layers of complexity are progressively revealed living together, only to discover the muddy nature of many, perhaps all, intrigue, selfishness, bad faith... For me it is more effective to start off from the "dont like" point as a departure line. Things start to change unsensibly without a specific plan or project, as an adventure, a kind of living magic. I am reading a lot of buddism, again. Boddidharma said, the teaching can only be passed from heart to heart, without mind, without project, unnoticed and unseen, which pretty much corresponds with Marx's determinism of the real movement of history, not the apparent one, a sort of millions of micro stories, micro gestures, micro decisions... Perhaps.
I like your "don't like" position as starting point, if that's what you're saying. In a well designed system or a well written contract, there should be no 'good faith' assumed. It should be written in a way that's fair and gives exit strategies that are what you'd want in the circumstances. To say you were disappointed means you had expectations that others didn't fulfill. Leaving those assumed and not made explicit, with consequences, is bad contract design.
The first chapter of the (in process) follow-up book, How to Build a Commonwealth, is called Love the Ones You're With. I don't have a shared ideology with my neighbors--in fact, I keep my mouth shut at neighborhood events and only allow myself a half-glass of wine so I don't get into trouble ;-)
I also don't really have friends, by choice. I have people with whom I share agendas--to dance, to do aerial, to laugh, to chat at the farmer's market. I agree that a specific plan or project is an adventure, a kind of living magic. Well put! Relationships happen in the spaces in between, where they're not the goal.
Certainly a better system can't start from scratch when it exists in a context of 'what is.' Any community starts with someone owning or renting the property. My system uses that in a way that's beneficial to everyone except a handful of bankers.
Oh the main one is climate change. When I put out the first cover of my book, it had the subtitle 'and fund the Green New Deal.' At that time, it seemed to be a decentralized idea of growing more food locally. And my solution to climate change is the same, whether or not it's real--regenerative agriculture using animal husbandry to restore grasslands and soil fertility. I'll still talk about that as my analogy for my regenerative economics in the conclusion to the book.
At that time, I'm sure I was falling for the World War narratives, although I don't think I made any references in the book.
'Fossil fuel' scarcity would be another, or even that phrase 'fossil fuels' which now seems so absurd when you think about it being crushed dinosaurs ;-) I do use that somewhere.
Of course I didn't start questioning vaccines until five years ago.
In the last video I linked, Questioning the Greater Reset, I state my concerns about intentional communities and why my plan goes much further. If you get a chance to watch or read it, I'll be curious as to your thoughts. Thanks for responding, Geoff!
Thank you for that thorough explanation. You are thoroughly invested in environmental love & advocacy. I expected you to mention RFK Jr. as I've noticed the call outs of late. As a legal guy myself, I respect my the side G-d placed him on as a plaintiff side lawyer vs big pharma. His CHD non-profit has put out some of the boldest content throughout #covid, which I quoted in my emissary work (Covid Audit) https://WHOtoSTOP.com.
.
I have been disappointed myself in recent silence from Dr. Brian hooker & 2 of his Attys, Greg Glaser & Mary Holland which started before the administration change yet curious what your findings have been as CHD seems aligned to your environmental & vaccine stances. I also know that 501-C3's are tax sheltering profits in our country and want to do much more with mine recently set up.
I'm a strategist, not an activist, so I don't do advocacy. Environmentalism is another psyops, leading to the WEF World Wildlife Foundation, Nixon's federally protected lands that gave the gov't all the logging profits, the int'l land grabs that kick out indigenous people as unsustainable, and on and on.
What a worthy and valuable compilation of patents you've put together, Geoff! It makes their strategy very clear. And I can see the legal mind at work in how you structured that. Good work!
All I knew of RFK pre-CovidCon was his forewords to a couple of books I'd read like Righteous Porkchop, that talked about his lawsuits. Then I read The Real Anthony Fauci and was very impressed. I did a couple of YTs on it and put this one on Substack: https://thirdparadigm.substack.com/p/infodemic-rfk-and-the-real-anthony. "Asks why the spread of information is the virus that most worries them. Examines Robert F. Kennedy's The Real Anthony Fauci as metajournalism that puts the virus as the "March madness champion" of many attempted pandemics."
But I've since done several on Kennedy, starting in July 2023:
It doesn't concern me if they have photos with him and a five-yr-old or a gun to his own kid's head, there's nothing that excuses abetting the killing of children in the Middle East. Was he captured or was this always a plan he was in on? How much of his circle is in on it too, like CHD? From other people I've investigated, tangential to Malone, I suspect everyone at the top is part of the con that was the next circle of psyops. Vera and Meryl certainly: https://thirdparadigm.substack.com/p/meryl-and-malone
1. Intramuscular injection is just a spectacularly dumb idea from the late 1800s. Cutaneous immunization works, just not always predicably. It is also painful and scars.
2. There was an anticipated rise in all-cause mortality (ACM) that remains and may even continue to increase in the future. This anticipated rise in ACM could have bankrupt many Western nations and is the biological signal being MANAGED with
manslaughter and lies. Many of these lies are told on social media by coordinated liars scripted to in turn promote or oppose other liars on the same script.
3. Modern RNA virology has also been used to strengthen and extend this Illusion. Claiming to find genetic signals in the wild, RNA virology then uses pure quantities of synthetic recombinant DNA or RNA TRANSFECTION in both cell cultures and animal models. This is fraud.
4. Coordinated liars fooled all of us into solving the Mystery of the Novel Virus. "Where did it come from? Who is responsible?" Participating in this Theater (even passively) coerced all of us into accepting several false premises, including that we were all in danger, and that we could be in danger again in the future.
5. RNA cannot be the basis for a pandemic because it has none of the special chemical characteristics that DNA supposedly has. When was the last DNA based pandemic? Gain of Function is a Mythology created by DOD+HHS to make an RNA pandemic biologically plausible. It is not.
6. These injections were actually old technologies-sometimes differentiated as TRANSFORMATION (adenovirus vectors, DNA) and TRANSFECTION (RNA)—that were just renamed and reformulated to be treated as new countermeasures, avoid regulation, and allow for the claiming of new intellectual property. This is fraud for which the PREP act emergency was a required moving part. Now the FDA will now be made irrelevant.
7. There is an irreducibly complex Background of genetic signals around us. A huge percentage but not all of these signals are related to bacteria and bacteriophages. The use of PCR in both virology and medicine make no effort to differentiate from this Background, using neither positive nor negative controls, as well as offering no reference scalar. The continued fraudulent use of PCR as a medical diagnostic creates a valuable medical remnant stream ideal for the Human Genome Project objectives.
8. The Health Freedom Movement can be seen as fake because of decades of failure to realize any of these Truths, especially #1. There are witting and unwitting participants. Ralph Baric, Peter Daszak, Paul Offit, Mary Holland, Andrew Wakefield, Polly Tommy, Vincent Racaniello, Pierre Kory, Robert Malone, and Robert F Kennedy are all part of One Malevolent Script. It is that bad.
Hi, George. Thanks for subbing. How did you know to look for me?
I don't think there's anything in the 8 points I disagree with. You know that I've done 18 videos on Malone, yes, two of which cite JJ? And several on Kennedy. The search function will find most of them.
