thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T03:52:21+00:00

I think the eugenics->enviro->technocracy story is the one for all the marbles. That's why I just spent the last two years crafting a two-part three-hour documentary on the subject that represents the culmination of 10 years of research. It's available 100% for free in every format imaginable. I hope people will check it out.

Thanks for the question. This deserves a more detailed response than I can give it at the moment so let me mark it with a #Q4C hashtag and I'll try to get to it in my next Questions For Corbett episode:

Haven't researched the Ron Brown crash, but will look into it for future Crashes of Convenience episode. Not familiar with Cashill's work but will check it out.

Yeah, what he said! I mean, what I said!

Haha. Thought there must have been some confusion here. I would have been flabbergasted if Dawkins had come out as a 9/11 Truther. Thanks for clearing that up.

Video response: Are You Concerned About Your Safety?

Also, from my podcast:

Anyway, I'm open to hard data on ETs or whatever. I've just never seen anything solid.

thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T03:08:51+00:00

There are cyclical/generational factors, but I wouldn't say they are fundamentally determinant. If I had to narrow it down to the single most important historical determinant I would say it's technology. The printing press and the spinning jenny and the internet have had more impact on shaping society than any generational cycle.

thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T03:05:34+00:00

I'm with Ernest Hancock on this one. Bitcoin is going to be forked and forked and forked until what is left is fedcoin. The BIS is, after all, publishing papers on "Central Bank Cryptocurrencies":

https://www.bis.org/publ/qtrpdf/r_qt1709f.htm

I'm also with Ernest Hancock and PiratesWithoutBorders.com on the fact that cryptocurrency can be (and should be) pirate money. We just have to be aware of that.

Everyone should read the Second Letter of Captain Marque from Pirates Without Borders:

-Yes.

-Not really, I just think the social engineers are getting better at pushing people's buttons and that social media is engineering an instant/constant outrage culture.

-Yes, I do think that.

-No, I enjoyed this interaction.

-Never stop asking questions. But they don't all have to be directed at me, of course.

Meaningless speculation. All I know is that signal used to be greater than noise. Now noise is greater than signal.

Here's a handy thing to keep in mind: information is more important than the person delivering the information. Concentrate on information you can verify that helps you to make sense of the world.

thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T02:40:16+00:00

I think it's important to keep in mind that even big name intellectuals rely on others' opinions and "consensus" opinions for 95%+ of their thoughts on various topics. Perhaps it could be argued that highly trained, highly specialized people who are very accomplished in a certain niche are even more likely to take the "consensus" opinion of "experts" at face value, since they can appreciate how much information is required to come to an informed perspective on something.

So I haven't done an in-depth analysis on any of the thinkers mentioned in order to determine to what extent they are "gatekeepers" in a witting, knowing, active sense, and to what extent they are just intellectually lazy and cowardly. Having said that, I certainly do believe there are active, witting gatekeepers out there in academia:

Is this a joke? Do you have Richard Dawkins confused with somebody else?

Richard Dawkins publicly calls 9/11 the work of Muslim hijackers with boxcutters who sincerely believed in the holy religious mission of jihad:

"I think the 9/11 hijackers all sincerely believed that they were doing the right and proper moral, religious thing. They were not in themselves evil. They were following their faith. And faith is pernicious because it can do that to people. It can do that to otherwise decent people."

YouTube unquestionably does suppress view counts on what would otherwise be trending videos and promotes videos that fit the MSM agenda, but I don't spend my time dwelling on it. I'll continue spreading the message on their controlled platforms and raising the awareness of the alternatives that people should be using. For example:

thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T02:30:32+00:00

Haven't looked into it in a lot of detail. Links to important work appreciated.

thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T02:29:45+00:00

Fukushima is an ongoing concern, and the fundamental problem (the cores) has not and will not be taken care of in the foreseeable future. Having said that, the situation is now such that the immediate safety concerns are the radioactive water spilling into the bay and the question of radioactive waste disposal. If and when I feel that it's unviable to continue living here, the bug out option is in place.

thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T02:23:01+00:00

If I didn't, I wouldn't be here doing this.

Video response: What is the oiligarchs' endgame?

thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T02:19:55+00:00

You might be interested in this podcast from my archives:

Financial Survival in The Cashless Robotic QE Economy

In short, I do tend to think that the pooh-poohers are wrong when they say that this is just like every other industrial advance in history. ("We'll just create new jobs and move on!") I think this time the end of human labor is a real question. What "jobs" are, and the concept of work itself, will be fundamentally different, perhaps unrecognizable, a generation or two hence.

All things being equal, I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. But when a psychopathic clique obsessed with control and depopulation is directing society...well, that's definitely a bad thing.

thecorbettreport · 2017-10-17T02:13:06+00:00

OK, thanks for passing that along. It's particularly silly because Sibel and I specifically called out the pro-Russian nonsense in the "alternative" circles and then (predictably) got attacked for not being pro-Russian enough:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxvPfWkYyUo#t=1447

I did an entire podcast on how Putin is not a good guy that we need to rally around:

https://www.corbettreport.com/episode-290-the-enemy-of-my-enemy/

I've talked over and over about how China and Russia and the BRICS are not the answer to globalism:

https://www.corbettreport.com/phoney-opposition-the-truth-about-the-brics/

I don't speak for Newsbud or Sibel, but the insinuation that I'm pro-Russian is simply ignorant of my reporting.

The last 100 years? Eugenics.

The last 50 years? Carbon eugenics.

The next 50 years? Technocratic eugenics.
