Early March 2023 Cultural Information.

 


As we near Spring of 2023, tons of development transpire in the world. Massive earthquakes have existed in Turkey and Syria. These earthquakes have killed over 100,000 human beings. There is the train derailment in Greece. Also, there is the catastrophe in East Palestine, Ohio where residents suffer poisoned water and environmental destruction along with another Norfolk Southern train derailment in Ohio too. The events in Ohio outline the reality that we have to use environmental regulation along with other solutions in solving our political problems as Americans. Millions of people globally have died from the COVID-19 pandemic, and still, we have some people who want to minimize the pandemic's destructive path. We know that neo-fascists like Trump, DeSantis, and their allies are wrong on tons of issues. Also, it is important to expose fake leftists who claim to be against Western imperialism but want to minimize Russian imperialism in Ukraine. Vladimir Putin admitted that he wanted to be like the Tsar Peter the Grat. He doesn't recognize Ukraine's existence via his propaganda speeches. Many of these fake progressive types of people desire Russia to rule Ukraine in an imperial fashion. Putin has executed policies that violate the freedom of press, the freedom of speech, the freedom of religion, etc. The oppressed have every right to fight for their liberty. These liars talk about Neo-Nazis, but far right Neo-Nazis live in Russia, Ukraine, and in America. Neo-Nazis are not representative of the vast majority of Ukrainians seeking freedom from Russian aggression. The oppressed has every right to self-defense, and Russian military forces have experienced numerous defeats by 2023. Jill Stein made the mistake to be a dinner guest in Moscow with Putin.  The only peaceful solution to war is for Russians to withdrawal its military forces from Ukraine first, and all parties having a meeting to establish a long-term solution to the configuration. 


Some of the fake leftists even want to defend the human rights violations in China. The government of China have illegal police stations in American and in dozens of other nations of the world. The Chinese police stations in America are completely unjust, a violation of national sovereignty, and against fundamental human freedoms. Also, we make a distinction between the vast majority of Chinese people in China who want freedom, their lives protected, and justice and some members of the Chinese government who endorse human rights abuses (against Uyghurs, Christians, political dissidents, etc.). This isn't about all Chinese people. It is about evil people in the four corners of the world who desire imperialism, sexism, racism, and bigotry in the world instead of tranquility for all in the human family. We are clear to expose and oppose Western imperialism (as I don't view NATO as perfect either) too as we are consistent. The CPAC convention of March of 2023 is typical of the Republican Party endorsing racists, xenophobes, bigots, and far right extremists who want a nation where voting rights, black history, and other freedoms to be restricted permanently. Trump at the CPAC hate rally wants retribution against those who disagree with him and his nefarious agenda. Trump forgets that people have the First Amendment right to disagree with his 2020 election lie talking points, his disregard of legal subpoenas, and his overt hatred against progressive people. We oppose DeSantis and other folks' attack on real black history being taught in schools and the anti-voting measures found nationwide (not just in the South). 


 


Brazil is known for its diversity. Most people in Brazil are Catholic being 64.6 percent, 22.2 percent are Protestants, 2.0 are other Christians, 2.0 are into spiritism, 8 percent has no religion, and 1.2 percent have other religions. Its population is more than 217 million people. In recent decades, Pentecostalism and Evangelicalism has increased its influence in Brazil. Its GDP has increased. Its Amazon basin has a tropical forest, diverse wildlife, and protected habitats. Most people in Brazil live in urban communities. Brazilian society is divided among racial and class lines. The term pardo is used to define multiracial Brazilians. Black people in Brazil do live in the eastern coast of the northeastern region from Bahia to Pariba. Some live in northern Maranhao, southern Minas Gerais, and in eastern Rio Janeiro. There are East Asian people, white people, and indigenous Native American people in Brazil. Most of the right people in Brazil are of Portuguese descent since 1500. Brazil has the second largest Jewish community in Latin America making up 0.06 percent of its population. Some of the largest cities in Brazil are Sao Paulo, Rio De Janeiro, Belo Horizonte, Recife, Brasilia, Port Alegre, Salvador, Fortaleza, Curitiba, and Goiania. The culture of Brazil is multifaceted. It has been found with influences from Africa, Europe, Asia, and the world over. There have been contributions to Brazilian culture made by Italian, German Japanese, Jewish, and Arabic people too. Native Americans in Brazil influenced Brazil's language and cuisine. African people have influence Brazil in cuisine, music, dance, and religion. Brazilian cinema had gained a new international acclaim since the 1950's and 1960's, especially with the classic film of Black Odyssey. Soccer, volleyball, basketball, auto racing, and martial arts have large audiences in the nation of Brazil too. This nation has made great achievements in diverse sports like sailing, swimming, tennis surfing, boxing, judo, etc. In the 1963 FIBA Basketball World Cups, the Brazil national basketball team won one of its two world championship titles. 


 



For thousands of years, people have lived in Brazil. Today, Brazil is a multiracial democracy that still have neo-fascists trying to ruin the nation. We have seen its history evolve around tragedies and triumphs. We have seen the growth of the inspirational, sacrosanct Afro-Brazilian community outlining their presence and power. Everything is not perfect in Brazil. For years, a pro-Trump Brazilian extremist was President until Lula took control of the country. There was an attempted coup against the Brazilian government that failed, which was similar to the January 6th, 2021 insurrection against the U.S. Capitol. Racism still exists globally in Brazil and worldwide. Also, many people are fighting back against racism and all forms of oppression in Brazil too. There is the Black Consciousness Day yearly event in Brazil where heroic human beings promote their Blackness and defend their human rights. We honor the slave revolts against slavery against Brazil led by Zumbi and other black men and black women who wanted black liberation. Also, today, Brazil has a great opportunity to be a better nation with a progressive President. Time will tell what the future holds for Brazil. Yet, tons of real human beings live in Brazil that desire economic justice, racial justice, environmental justice, gender justice, and human liberation in general. 



 


In life, never stop learning is true advice. Now, more people know the truth. It is a historical fact that many super rich people in Davos talking about neoliberalism and other economic issues. We know about the U.S. made foods being banned in Europe but making many American sick. In our generation, more overt promotion of witchcraft, New Age doctrines, and Satanism is real. The corporate media is controlled by corporate interests. They may show the truth on some issues, but some in the corporate media won't cross that line to show other truths like the influences of Secret Societies, the neoliberal influence in the world, and the corporate corruption that involves oil, media, and other spheres of influence in the world. According to journalist and author of Propaganda in the Information Age, Alan MacLeod, Google started as a CIA project. MacLeod has researched the ties between the national security state and Big Tech for a long time. He found out that dozens of ex-CIA agents are on Google's staff. It is no secret that U.S. intelligence agencies have links to social media platforms like Google, Twitter, Facebook, etc. We live in new times when a British lab created a soulless "synthetic embryo" complete with a brain and beating heart. World One was a David Rockefeller-sponsored computer program from 1973 to make it appear that 2020 was the beginning of the end. That is interesting as David Rockefeller wrote his memoirs saying that he is proud of his desire to establish a "one world" agenda. Since 2020, we have seen an increase of hate crimes, more earthquakes, the spread of the pandemic, promotion of authoritarian population control efforts, new wars, massive earthquakes (like the earthquakes killing thousands of innocent human beings in Tukey and Syria), and other events like food shortages (some GOP extremists want to cruelly cut SNAP benefits to vulnerable populations in America). Some are promoting plans to censor more words on the Internet (under the guise of "combating misinformation") in violation of the First Amendment. The elites exploit crisis for generations for control and profit. For example, back in the 1960's, leaders of the American government knew of climate change issues. Yet, corporate leaders did little to nothing back in the 1960's to fight climate change, and now things hit the fan by the 1990's and the 21st century. The same corporations who lecture us on how they care about the Earth are the same ones polluting the Earth and advancing poisons in the world (i.e. environmental racism is very real). The corporate elite lecture us on tolerance, but they were involved in Operation Paperclip (which is how the American government took in ca. 1,600 Nazi scientists, many of these scientists were involved in deadly Nazi human experiments) to promote NASA and rocket technology. We already know that Donald Trump is a neo-fascist racist (as we know that Trump said racist comments about COVID and Mitch McConnell's wife. Neo Nazi flags were outside of a Turning Point USA Summitt that was attended by Trump), sexist, and narcissistic. So, we shouldn't worship political parties as infallible. We have to use commonsense and think independently. Many people in the World Economic Forum are growing their power. 




The biggest irony in the world is that some in the corporate media tells us to reject any conspiracy, but some of them want people to agree with them 100 percent unconditionally. Lies promoted by militarists in dealing with the Iraq and Vietnam Wars should make us aware that we have to trust genuine research. There is misinformation like the Qanon nonsense. Yet, we know that we should be knowledgeable about the mysteries of the world, protect our health (we know that General Electric and Monsanto/Bayer are the same American and European corporations that funded Hitler's rise in the 1930's and had issues with pesticides), and defend our human rights. Today, propaganda that promote Ancient Aliens and pro-Gnosticism including other New Age doctrines seek to bash those who believe that one God created the Universe. Secret Societies from the Cathars, the Bavarians Illuminati, the Rosicrucians, the Thule Society, the Bohemian Grove, Freemasonry, etc. have many differences. Yet, they existed to promote occult doctrines, some teach the doctrine of human divinity. Freemasonry came from medieval masons who mixed architecture research and philosophical views. An early Freemason like astrologer Elias Ashmole and astrologer William Lilly worked together on many projects. We reject the liars who either want to bash every Christian as irrational bigots and others who want to sanitize American history (when American history has been filled with genocide, slavery, and other mistakes. Some of the same "Founders" that some GOP people praise didn't believe in mainstream Christianity, some were Masons, and some expressed hostility towards religion in general. Many GOP extremists love to dehumanize asylum seekers who are black and brown but are silent on Ukrainian asylum seekers. All asylum seekers, regardless of his or her color, should be treated with dignity and with respect). We have to use our God-given minds to promote discernment, achieve righteous actions, and advance justice in the world without apology. 




 


After the course of years and decades, we know the truth. We know about the struggle of freedom among the human family. We realize that that the Golden Rule is a paramount concept to love and embrace. Also, we know that love is a term that has been distorted by some. Some want to use the term love as an excuse for them to do what they want without boundaries and without restraint. Love is not about that. Love is about sincere respect and concern for fellow people, because it is the right thing to do. Also, love is about righteousness, justice, empathy, compassion, and inspiring real change to see the truth. Therefore, it is important to note that some exploit the meaning of love to be a bigot. Love has nothing to do with being an irrational basher of people or hating a person by virtue of what someone is born to be. The truth is that everything isn't perfect. We have Big Pharma being involved in scandals. We witness an unjust Russian invasion of Ukraine. We see massive income inequality in America and worldwide. The good news is that we have the power to do something about it with reason, logic, and social activism. One of the biggest deceptions is Putin. Many far right and fake liberals are uniting to defend Putin's politics. Putin is a dictator, a liar, and a racist by saying "U.S. not a white Christian country anymore, we Europeans need to preserve our culture." The truth is that America was never 100 percent white. Diverse people lived in America for centuries and thousands of years. Additionally, black people lived in Europe thousands of years ago, not just 5 centuries ago. 

 


Twenty years has existed since the Iraq War. A lot of memories come to my mind about the war. Back then, I was a little over 19 years old in college as a sophomore. With George W. Bush's words, I knew that he would invade Iraq, even after his last warning in trying to seek a resolution. The truth is that the West's plan for regime change in Iraq existed long before 2003. Back in the early 1990's, many neo-conservatives like Dick Cheney wanted to invade Iraq, but President George H. W. Bush opposed it citing the possibility of sectarian violence and chaos. Ironically, that would happen to Iraq for years after 2003. The neo-conservatives believe in the view of American exceptionalism in believing that America must be like a policeman of the whole world to spread "democracy." Yet, other nations shouldn't be made in America's image involuntarily. Nations have to go to the same growing pains that America have grown through in being better. We all want freedom to be in the world, but we can't force every nation to follow our ways completely by the barrow of a gun. The Iraq War was immoral because it was a preemptive attack on a sovereign nation that posed no immediate threat to America, it was a war based on the lie that Iraq had massive amounts of weapons of mass destruction, and it had no legal or moral justification at all. War is no fairy tale. In the Iraq War, many civilians in Iraq were murdered, cluster bombs existed, phosphorus were commonly used in Iraqi cities and towns, and other forms of destruction persisted in Iraq (even after the Bush surge). Also, Iraqi people were tortured in Abu Ghraib and other incidents. American soldiers lost their lives, were tortured, and have their lives devastated by the conflict too. Therefore, the Iraq War should not have existed in my opinion as more peaceful solutions were available to handle foreign policy matters in Iraq. Likewise, we have to learn lessons. We have to realize that foreign policy is no game, and we have to use every method available to solve problems peacefully. The anti-war movement during the Iraq War were courageous to speak their minds, organize, and have a sense of purpose to try to end the Iraq War. The anti-war movement united people from across the political spectrum to be for civil liberties, to promote environmental rights, to oppose torture, to be against warrantless wiretapping, and being against imperialism. Today in 2023, we must be continuously firm in embracing our core convictions that freedom and justice is meant for everyone. 


 



We certainly live in unique times. We know that humans are beyond automatons. We have DNA. DNA has encoded information that deals with the composition of the characteristics of human life from melanin to the color of hair. DNA has a code made up of four chemical units called nucleotide bases that have the abbreviations of A, T, G, and C. There are about three billion pairs of these letters in every human cell. DNA is made up of chemicals that instruct a code on how information is processed. Therefore, there is purpose in the Universe. There are numerous natural laws that cause stars to move, that cause gravity to exist, and makes sure that organisms live. I don't believe that these realities developed by random chance or by some cosmic mistake. I believe that Almighty God caused the origin of the Universe using natural laws, mathematics, and other natural functions that has existed for a very long time. Likewise, the hedonism and anti-God attitudes of Aleister Crowley (who was a liar, a sexist, and a deceiver) doesn't make any sense, because in life, people have to promote righteousness and justice in creating a just, stable society.
