1. Hoping for a Proper World ***
How we feel about hope likely depends on our own experiences and circumstances. It’s been portrayed as both salvation and delusion, and many things in between. Navigating hope and hopelessness, grief and despair, rest and apathy, action and futility, is something of a craft and an art. We are often at different places on this messy spectrum of grieving, healing, acting, or giving up. Thoughts and attitudes that can keep us from giving up, giving in, or standing idly by.

Note: One mistake in this really neat speech: desire for employment. Work, yes. But please let’s move away from employer-controlled work, which employment currently almost always still is. Not only do employers usually exploit and often mistreat us or force us into wrong work. But they can and often do block us from doing our work that society deserves and we typically want to give in return for what our fellow humans give us. We cannot do our work if employers don’t hire us or after hiring us later easily fire us. And currently freelance work that would liberate us from this is badly treated by governments to often block that route, too. (for example taking away Medicaid health insurance if one’s work earns money out of deep poverty by one dollar)

3. Great Mental Image of Capitalism **
Capitalism’s evil nature well presented. A reminder from me regarding the only partially made historic back few: it was originally perceived as a fairer alternative to former feudalism; but it has developed and revealed itself as a newer form of feudalism with predatory goals as its main setting. If short on time start watching it at 5:33. Summary of her presentation: Capitalism is not merely an economic system, but a social order that licenses and incentivizes those who are dedicated to amassing economic wealth to feed off of everyone and everything else (all people and nature, even if killing and destroying them). Not only productive but also highly destructive (and thus not at all clear if an efficient production system). ― I very much agree and go as far as believing that it is very unefficient for what we humans need; creating a lot of crappy things we don’t really need (consumeristically brainwashing people into wanting them), them rarely built well (preferred by the money lords to soon having to be replaced thus increasing their profiteering sales), and enterprises always damaging each other in their competition thus reducing efficiency of the economy. ― And RJ Eskow smartly points out that productivity is abstractly defined in our capitalist system – example: growing one’s own food gets ignored; only selling it to others (and buying others from them) gets measured and praised.

4. Governments Becoming Repressive Institutions Aiding the Rich
… to oppress the rest of us, blocking us from fighting back and making change for a better society. The oppressive relationships in our labor system leading to an oppressive government as part of the oppression desired by narcissistic/sociopathic rich jerks at the top and their corrupted ‘elite’ henchmen.

5. Capitalism Consistently Robbing Ownership
… over time turning us all (except of the money lords at the top) into serfs and slaves.

6. Deep State Married with Organized Crime
Naval Intelligence, CIA, Mafia, Mob, Iran Contra… J Edgar Hoover, Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, Bill Gates…
Since WW2 and until now. Not just one guy (Epstein).

8. A Talk about COVID from Lab Leak
Some paper(s) pointing in that direction.

9. Nick Brana Exposing our Country Corruption ***
Nick Brana has for years been one of the very best insighters in our troubles and demander of important changes. He has been attacked lately with accusations* (and law suit?) to shift him off the table and make disappear the People’s Party sprouting around him. But, while we haven’t had the People’s Party (“Podcast”) channel’s outputs for many sad months, he still exists and currently gets to give his insights on current events on mostly very small independent channels (*sigh* way too small), and the PP is, it seems to me, still working for its growth, kind of invisibly, and still too slow (*sigh*). But listen to Nick. I think you’ll notice that we need guys like him to fight for a better world. Yes, we have had fake progressives like Sanderes and AOC make us believe in them for some time. But the way Nick Brana still speaks sounds simply deep and honest to me. Our corrupt system of a sufferist cult may not be able to bribe or threaten him out of his path. But also remember that for reducing threats enough on possible champions for the people we need to build powerful people movements for them to stand on (like in Bolivia about which you can learn here on Beanstock’s World).
*Side note: The only possibly correct accusation IMHO would be him being a grifter only pretending to be a fighter for a healthy society in order to get funding allegedly for the Political Party but at least in part just for him. If this were true he would be the most ever credible grifter in our times. I rather doubt that accusation. If some money was spent stupidly (like too much for a logo as a claim I heard), it must not have been grifting but a mistake, and not necessarily done by Nick Brana or any number of proper members of the party but maybe one (one that could have been incompetent or an infiltrator – you must always expect ruling class infiltrators in organizations formed by and for the people).
Part 1: Rail-workers’ striking forbidden:
In a typical congress trick: They split a bill into two, namely (1) forbidding strike and (2) demanding paid sick leave. Then pass the first one (strikes not allowed) and kick away the second one (so thus paid sick leaves denied). After such nasty tricks we then always hear claims about some@@@ not so good congress members (typically from the other party), so that the leading party can pretend to be fighting for the workers, when in reality both major parties work together to serve the robber billionaires and boot the rest of us.
How could Biden/Sanders back anti-strike law? ~ Not the Andrew Marr Show (Dec 13, 2022)
Part 2: Elon Musk Revelation & Social Media Censoring
Elon Musk essentially being a robber billionaire married to government and military. And the ability of people to politically discuss and organize via social media (like in the 2016 Sanders campaign) getting now prevented by censoring away truth tellers, hiding their channels, and by isolating change-wanting people in echo chamber bubbles. Thus the Internet being changed from a free speech for people it originally was into the most powerful weapon ever of agenda setting and propaganda by and for the rich ruling class in our neofeudalism. – Would you be surprised to hear that people much less often now find Beanstock’s World (plus me having less time in my survival struggles for writing revealing articles here in addition to my news video sharings)?

10. Undoing Our Disunity
… some small speeches for people’s political rise (wish or beginning), incl. love and compassion for all.

Honorable Mentions:
- “Debunking the great AI lie | Noam Chomsky, Gary Marcus, Jeremy Kahn” by Web Summit (Nov 14, 2022). This otherwise mostly time wasting video of stage discussion (or debate?) reveals a problem created by AI (artificial intelligence) developments (made for profit and for controlling us, the people) at 13:25 at which point I link at it, namely the lies it produces, especially in troll farms which are institutionalized groups or bots of internet trolls seeking to interfere in political opinions and decision-making of people. According to one study 30 governments worldwide paid keyboard armies to spread propaganda and attack critics, to harass journalists and erode trust in the media. Attempts to influence elections in 18 of the countries covered by the study. (and that even revealed on Wikipedia which is also heavily controlled by trolls)

- Nothing new for me or regular visitors of this blog: Our media getting ever more right-wing. Why Is US Media Becoming More Right-Wing? ~ Second Thought (Dec 16, 2022) – A quote given as a comment: “There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti- intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” ― Isaac Asimov
