Don Quixote…de la Left!

Jordan Henderson

The pull of Right vs Left Politics is still so strong, at least here in the USA, that I feel the need to state at the outset that my motivation here is not to score any points for the Right. This painting – Don Quixote de la Left – is a picture of the Woke Left.

A few months ago I painted a similarly unflattering and honest portrait of the Christian Right. The intent of these paintings is to serve as open windows presenting clear views of dissenting perspectives.

Critically portraying both wings of the ruling class, makes…...

This Week in the New Normal #47

Our successor to This Week in the Guardian, This Week in the New Normal is our weekly chart of the progress of autocracy, authoritarianism and economic restructuring around the world.

A somewhat later and somewhat briefer TWitNN this week, because in truth I was not planning on doing one at all, but then a couple of news stories caught my eye…

1. Ursula Von Der Leyen threatens Italian democracy
The Italian parliamentary elections are coming up, the favourite to win is the conservative right coalition led by ex-journalist Giorgia Meloni.

For those of you unfamiliar with Meloni, here she is…...

WATCH: Who Controls the News Controls the World

I noticed a funny thing when browsing the propaganda newswires lately: all of the stories about the Queen’s death said the exact same thing! What’s going on here, and why does it matter?

Join James Corbett for a wild ride through the history of newswires and the formation of the fire-induced collapse hypothesis as he explores the dictum Who Controls the News Controls the World on this week’s edition of The Corbett Report.

Shownotes, sources, download options and an audio-only version of this episode are available here....

Multipolar World Order – Part 2

Iain Davis

In Part 1, we discussed the nature of “world order” and global governance. We learned the crucial difference between the Westphalian model of equal, sovereign nation-states—a mythical ideal, never an actuality—and the various attempts to stamp a world order on that template.

In particular, we considered how the UN has been the leading organisation promoting global governance and how its founding Charter facilitates the centralisation of global power.

We observed that the UN has undergone a “quiet revolution” that has transformed it into a global public-private partnership (UN-G3P).

Latterly, we have seen the rise of a prospective multipolar…...

💢Maybe the more important question than who is behind the alleged #NordStream2 event is - why does almost everything in this "special military operation" & beyond lead to the SAME destination - shortages, hardship, poverty for the 99%?

💢Just as the "pandemic" was intended to do...

💢Just a coincidence it all facilitates the shift to the "multipolar world" envisaged by the IMF, BRICS, & most ruling elites for the last several years?

💢Not a "good" multipolar world btw - a "multipolar world" of surveillance, social credit & CBDC.

💢A "multipolar world" where "Green fascism", forever pandemics, & maybe forever wars, excuse perpetual shortages, massive social control & limited personal autonomy/privacy.

The world of Orwell's 1984 in fact

Everyone should read Iain Davis's first two parts of his multipolar world essay.

He helps clarify that we in alt media are being lured in to cheering for exactly the "multipolar" new world order the supranational elites have been planning for decades.

I noticed a few years ago it was becoming trendy in the 'establishment' Left to attack the US and 'capitalism' as never before.

Now it's becoming obvious why as BOTH the US and the notion of 'capitalism' are now being deliberately demolished to make way for the new 'communitarian ' system.

They're fair game now for ridicule and exposure of their many evils, in fact such exposure is encouraged since it invests people with a hope that the new order will eschew all such evil -

But of course it won't since it's in reality simply the old system renamed, restyled and made even more authoritarian and less accountable.

Lately we get a lot of comments like this one below from "Patrick L", confused by our recent interrogation of the East-West binary analysis that dominated most pre-2020 geopolitical analysis in the alt media.

https://off-guardian.org/2022/09/27/watch-who-controls-the-news-controls-the-world/#comment-543630

Here's our response, which we hope will clarify some things for our wider readership also. We've said it before of course, and we'll have to say it again, but hopefully each time a few more people will hear us and understand..


Dear Patrick L,

We're urging you to update your worldview.

Let's face the obvious - Either geopolitics have changed drastically since 2019, or, as some suggest, hidden realities have become more visible.

Either way, our understanding needs to keep pace.

Since the whole thrust of the current globalist narrative seems to be the destruction of the unipolar world and of the US power base, it doesn't make much sense to continually refer to the prior existence of these things as a reason for ignoring current developments.

Yes, the unipolar world was/is a thing.

Yes, the US empire did a great deal of evil.


But that doesn't change the fact their day seems to be ending and the current new threats are defining themselves in different ways.

In fact you can argue they are are deliberately cloaking themselves in deceptive language designed to appear as if they are offering a better and fairer world.

Words such as "multipolar", "communitarian", aimed at appealing to people like all of us in alt media, who long for a fairer and more decent world.

What better way to secure our cooperation with this awkward little period of transition than by persuading us the longed-for "revolution" is happening.

It's a nice dream. We understand its appeal

But it's not true.

The "multipolar world"/GreatReset/New Normal/4thIR isn't Utopia in the making. It's not even the end of the empire or the oligarchy.

It's just the hermit crab changing its old shell for a nice comfy new one.

It's the old gang of supranational exploiters giving themselves new names and a new (infinitely more authoritarian) set of "international rules" and trying to get us to cheer them doing so and "vote" for our own digital and actual imprisonment.

If we just ignore this and continue to try to view this evolving agenda through the old binary filter, it's arguable we are making ourselves not just ineffective opposition, but actually complicit.

This is why we are taking the line we currently take.

This is why we don't endorse or whitewash either side in this bizarre "special military operation".

This is why we refuse to proclaim either side's toxic vax sludge as "safe and effective", or either side's covid tyranny as "necessary".

You'll never hear any such queasy special pleading from us, so if that's what you are looking for - sorry, we'll disappoint you.

We will however do our best to tell the truth.

However many erstwhile "friends" that might lose us.

Forget the blame game, Nordstream Sabotage is about the Great Reset & nothing else.

Kit Knightly

Last night it was reported that “blasts” had damaged both Nordstream pipelines that carry gas exported from Russia to Germany and other nations across northern Europe.
As a result, large amounts of natural gas were leaking into the Baltic sea, and supplies through the pipeline were completely shut off.

The alleged incident has caused a furious round of blame tennis, with accusations flying back and forth across what – for the sake of simplicity – we’ll call Iron Curtain 2.0.

The European Union has claimed the pipes were “sabotaged”, but doesn’t directly blame anyone in their statement.

Some multipolar world, right?

Do you want THIS unnecessary toxic gene-poison or THAT one?

Ours is always better, of course, whoever we are.

Just like being locked down by the good guys is great but being locked down by the bad guys is awful .

How to Debunk Thermite on 9/11

Kevin Ryan

The anniversary of the 9/11 attacks just passed, and we noticed a fair amount of discussion in the comments attempting to discredit or debunk the controlled demolition theory. Some claimed there was no rubble (or not enough), or no explosions, or no heat, or no molten metal…however all the claims were anecdotal and fell somewhat flat (so to speak).
But OffG prides itself on being helpful, and since some of you are so keen to debunk the work of the phsycists and engineers who found physical proof that 9/11 was an inside job, we’ve got a handy guide…...

The Short and Brutal Life of the Fruit Fly

Sylvia Shawcross

Now, there are only two types of people in the world and it has been this way since the second generation of humans existed: those who know history and those who don’t.

…And then there are those who pretend to know history. And those who know history only as it is written by the victors.

So, there are four types of people in the world.

And then there is the type that know history and just use it nefariously to sway those that don’t know history into repeating history, condemning us into learning nothing collectively until we all…...

Moscow's expansive surveillance grid was used to locate five people suspected of evading mobilization: “Five alleged evaders from partial mobilization were identified the day before in Moscow using a face recognition system - cameras caught them in different parts of the city: two on Krasnoyarskaya Street, one each at the Belorussky railway station, in Golyanovo and Otradnoye. According to our information, four were taken to military enlistment offices or police departments for further investigation. They are still looking for the fifth." [source: Gazeta.ru]

The Invaders

Todd Hayen

Is anyone old enough to remember the Quinn Martin television series The Invaders starring Roy Thinnes as David Vincent? Vincent is an architect in the series who happens upon a UFO landing carrying aliens bent on taking over the planet.

The aliens managed to look like ordinary human beings (easy on the budget) with a few peculiarities that were subtle enough to keep them from being easily discovered. Some of these oddities included a weirdly deformed little finger, a heart that has no pulse, and blood that doesn’t bleed out (I guess that stands to reason considering no…...

Nordstream Sabotage – Deeper Dive

Kit Knightly

In the most recent edition of New World Next Week, James Corbett cites my recent article on the Nordstream sabotage, but politely disagrees about the irrelevance of attribution.
He argues that this kind of event will have definite geopolitical ramifications, and as such the identity of the culprit becomes important information. (I will embed the full video, below as the two Jameses are always worth watching.)

I respect James’ work immensely and in the alternate media world there’s probably no one I am more likely to agree with as a general rule, but here I must return that…...
