Twitter accelerates BAN of independent journalists as Big Tech’s war on truth goes on steroids

[Natural News]: Suppression of free speech on the internet is rapidly becoming a societal norm, at least across the Big Tech spectrum of social media and search engine platforms.

 And none other than Twitter is helping to lead the way in outlawing all independent journalism from ever reaching your eyes or ears online.

Under the guise of combatting “fake news” and “Russian propaganda,” Twitter has taken to scrubbing all posts and deleting all accounts that disseminate information that’s in any way contrary to the government-approved propaganda being pushed by the tech overlords...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

2,000 Untested Chemicals Discovered In Packaged Foods

[Collective Evolution]: A recent report by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) shows that thousands of untested chemicals, approximately 2,000, can be found in a huge variety of conventional processed and packaged foods, which are available for purchase in US supermarkets.

You may be surprised to know that these chemicals are legal, based off current chemical regulation laws, or lack thereof in the United States.

Out of the thousands of chemical additives that were discovered, several are known or suspected carcinogens, like synthetic sodium nitrite, which is found in many varieties of processed meats. The World Health Organization considers these probably carcinogenic.

Another chemical, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) is listed by the state of California as a cancer-causing chemical can be found in many items, such as a frozen pepperoni pizza.

Many other alarming chemicals are found in the packaging of the foods themselves, such as polypropylene, sulfuric acid and bisphenol A...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Side Effects of the Measles Vaccine Include Brain Damage and Death

[David Icke]: The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) report minor side effects from the MMR-V and MMR vaccines to include low-grade fever, injection site redness or rash, pain at the injection site, and facial swelling. Moderate side effects include a full body rash, temporary low platelet count, temporary stiffness and pain the joints and seizures, and seizures.

MMR-V, however, has been noted to have a higher risk of seizures than separate administrations of MMR and varicella vaccines, especially when given as the first dose of the series.

Rare serious side effects of both MMR-V and MMR include brain damage, coma, chronic seizure disorder, lowered level of consciousness and loss of hearing.

Finding Freedom in No

[Daily Om]: Many of us, from childhood on, are taught that saying yes is right and saying no is wrong. We learn that acceding to demands allows us to avoid conflict and criticism, please people, earn praise, and prove that we care for the important people in our lives. Yet the right to say no is indelibly intertwined with the ability to make choices. 

When we sense we are limited in our options, compelled to say yes even when doing so is not in our interests, we are effectively robbed of our ability to choose. 

Growing out of this tendency to say yes even when we desperately want to say no can be challenging because we suspect that others will reject us for our assertiveness. But the reward we receive upon facing this challenge is true freedom of choice.

When others ask you to take on work or do favors, consider their requests carefully. If you feel pressed to say yes, consider whether you are acquiescing out of a desire for approval or to stave off disapproval. Remind yourself often that the ability to say no is an important aspect of well-being, as it is an indication that you understand the true value of your energy, talents, and time...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Mind Control Vs. Controlling Your Own Mind

[Humans are Free]: Mind Control is a big part of the conspiracy. But, on the flipside, have you thought about controlling your mind for good?

Controlling your mind is key as we head deeper into the 21st century. The mind is the new frontier – and from a military standpoint the new battleground – as governmental-military-corporate organizations become enmeshed with each other to push the same AI (Artificial Intelligence) driven agenda of a NWO (New World Order).

Research is feverishly underway with the aim of completely understanding and decoding the brain, with the idea that such an understanding will lead to many ‘useful’ benefits (but not for the average person), such as governments being better able to control their citizens without threats or force, and military forces being better able to defeat their enemies without firing a single shot...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

“Decarbonize” means DEPOPULATION, because humans are carbon-based organisms… AOC, Bernie Sanders are actually promoting extermination of humans

Apparent total madness. A distraction from what is really going on. 

[Natural News]: Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and failed presidential candidate Bernie Sanders have together unveiled a new piece of legislation that they claim will help to “decarbonize” America’s public housing stock – which is just code for depopulation.

The “Green New Deal for Public Housing Act,” as they’re calling it, would require $180 billion in taxpayer dollars to “decarbonize the entire public housing stock in the United States of America,” according to AOC and Sanders.

“And in the process of decarbonizing the public housing stock we are going to put hundreds of thousands of people to work in good paying jobs and giving that preference to public housing residents,” AOC further explained during a public unveiling event for the bill.

“The planet is in crisis,” Sanders added, to cheers from a group of public housing residents that was bussed in from New York City to Washington, DC. “The truth is that five out of the last six years have been the warmest on record,” Sanders further contended, offering no evidence to back this claim...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

The Wonderment Of Life

[Daily Om]: Most of us begin our days with a continuous list of things we need to do to keep our lives running smoothly, but we rarely take time to note all the things we don't need to do. For example, we don't need to figure out how to breathe. 

We don't need to find a way to make sure the earth continues to revolve around the sun. We don't need to concentrate to ensure that our heart beats and our cells regenerate. All of these things, and many more, take care of themselves without our having to think or do anything at all. 

This is the miracle of life on earth.

Beyond the wonder of the natural world, we have the wonder of human-created conditions such as indoor plumbing, electricity, automobiles, airplanes, telephones, and the Internet to name a few. Someone living just a hundred years ago would be overwhelmed by the ease with which we can communicate with people all over the world....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>..

The Origins of the Thought Police—and Why They Scare Us

[Waking Times]: There are a lot of unpleasant things in George Orwell’s dystopian novel 1984. Spying screens. Torture and propaganda. Victory Gin and Victory Coffee always sounded particularly dreadful.

And there is Winston Smith’s varicose ulcer, apparently a symbol of his humanity (or something), which always seems to be “throbbing.” Gross.

None of this sounds very enjoyable, but it’s not the worst thing in 1984. To me, the most terrifying part was that you couldn’t keep Big Brother out of your head.

Unlike other 20th-century totalitarians, the authoritarians in 1984 aren’t that interested in controlling behavior or speech. They do, of course, but it’s only as a means to an end. Their real goal is to control the gray matter between the ears....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

The U.S. military is currently developing a “Google Earth on steroids” that can see inside buildings and simulate functional indoor spaces.

Thrown for a loop: 'Paradigm-shifting' study claims universe is a closed ring, not flat

[David Icke]: Astrophysicists are known for mind-bending theories that are often too difficult for mere mortals to understand but new research suggesting the universe is actually a closed loop really takes the cake… or, erm, the donut?

An international team of astronomers led by Eleonora Di Valentino of Manchester University pored over a trove of data released last year by the European Space Agency’s Planck satellite.

Contrary to the popular belief that the universe is flat, Di Valentino and her team came to the conclusion that the universe is, in fact, a curved, closed and inflating sphere, in what she dubbed a “cosmological crisis” that warrants a “drastic rethinking of the current cosmological concordance model.”...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

There is Only Now

[Daily Om]: It can be easy for us to walk through the world and our lives without really being present. While dwelling on the past and living for the future are common pastimes, it is physically impossible to live anywhere but the present moment.

We cannot step out our front door and take a left turn to May of last year, any more than we can take a right turn to December 2025. Nevertheless, we can easily miss the future we are waiting for as it becomes the now we are too busy to pay attention to. We then spend the rest of our time playing "catch up" to the moment that we just let pass by. During moments like these, it is important to remember that there is only Now.

In order to feel more at home in the present moment, it is important to try to stay aware, open, and receptive. Being in the present moment requires our full attention so that we are fully awake to experience it....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Optogenetics and your brain: Researchers study the therapeutic potential of light

[Natural News]: Can light restore vision to blind people and help treat paralysis in patients with Parkinson’s disease? German researchers have recently examined the possibility of stimulating light-sensitive proteins to achieve therapeutic effects on various health conditions.

Optogenetics is a technique that manages processes in the brain through light-based stimulation. It achieves its effects through light-controlled proteins like channelrhodopsin-2, which activate when they come into contact with photons.

Channelrhodopsin-2 serves as an ion channel for the cellular membrane of unicellular green algae. It and other similar proteins serve as a mix of gate and gatekeeper for the cell – they determine whether or not an ion may pass through the layer....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Martin Armstrong Warns Of The Coming "Big Freeze"

[S.O.T.T]: The BIG FREEZE is upon us.

The volatility in weather that our computer has been forecasting on a long-term basis should result in this winter being colder than the last. In Britain, the snow has hit an already flood-ravaged country as temperatures plunged to -7C.

This is part of the problem we face. The ground freezes down and this prevents winter crops.

During the late 1700s, the ground froze to a depth of 2 feet according to John Adams. When John Adams set out to travel to Philadelphia, it was bitterly cold and there was a foot or more of snow that covered the landscape that had blanketed Massachusetts from one end of the province to the other. Beneath the snow, after weeks of severe cold, the ground was frozen solid to a depth of two feet. Packed ice in the road made the journey very hazardous...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

WSJ exposes Google’s search engine fraud and blatant lies about not manually intervening in search engine results…

[Natural News]: The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) recently conducted an investigation into the goings on at tech giant Google, revealing that the world’s most popular search engine does, in fact, manually interfere with search results to favor leftist politics and causes.

Multiple WSJ reporters worked together over the course of several months to unearth the ugly truth about Google that much of the public isn’t being told, including the fact that the Silicon Valley behemoth has maliciously tweaked its platform in such a way as to promote the deep state agenda whenever possible.

“Google made more than 3,200 changes to its algorithms in 2018, up from more than 2,400 in 2017 and from about 500 in 2010,” one source included in the investigation explains.

Amazingly, Google is in a perpetual state of denial about its tampering efforts, insisting on the record that the company does not “manually intervene in search results.” Perhaps this is trick-speak for hiding the artificial intelligence (AI) robots that are doing it instead?

Whatever the case may be, Google CEO Sundar Pichai infamously told Congress that his company is a perfect little angel – which means that if this is not actually the case, then Pichai is guilty of perjury...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

While all Eyes Were on Impeachment Hearing the US House Re-Authorized the PATRIOT Act

[Waking Times]: House Democrats have slipped an unqualified renewal of the draconian PATRIOT Act into an emergency funding bill – voting near-unanimously for sweeping surveillance carte blanche that was the basis for the notorious NSA program.

A three-month reauthorization of the notorious PATRIOT Act was shoehorned into a last-minute continuing resolution (CR) funding the US government, bundling measures needed to avert yet another government shutdown with a continuation of the wildly-intrusive surveillance powers passed after the 9/11 terror attacks.

Releasing Negativity

[Daily Om]: We all have days when the bad things seem to outweigh the good ones and we begin to think that life isn't fair. You get stuck in traffic, which makes you late for an important meeting, and then your car gets towed. You might ask yourself, "Why me?"

Events like this one can test anyone's ability to be grateful and feel optimistic. If you have a tendency to feel sorry for yourself, and many of us do, things usually progress to the next stage: the pity party.

You begin to feel like the innocent victim of a dismal fate because you are seeing your life through inaccurate lenses. Most of the thoughts that run through your mind at times like these are not helpful, and they mainly serve to increase your indignation and feelings of powerlessness.

Tech giants now MEMORY HOLING facts they want to erase from your consciousness

This is potentially a HUGE problem; prior to the internet we had so much information stored in books. 

Books, sadly, are now being removed from circulation in great numbers so we have to rely on internet sources for the same info. 

With these sources being corrupted ... what chance have we of ever knowing the real truth?

[Natural News]: If you use Google, Twitter, Facebook or YouTube, you are not living in the real world… you’re living in an artificially constructed psycho-fabrication that’s engineered by the tech giants to isolate you from actual knowledge. The goal of the tech giants, simply stated, is to obliterate human knowledge and enslave humanity under endless layers of engineered disinformation and propaganda that makes humans easier to control (or kill, as the climate activists are now demanding with their depopulation agenda.

The ruling class fully understands that the only way to control people, and to finally control the world, is to stifle individual excellence by creating a society that refuses to think…

The monopoly of power that is held by the few over the rest of society is all consuming, and the ultimate control sought by these elites is getting ever closer to fruition. It has been affected over long periods of time through incremental measures. It did not happen overnight, but over centuries, and at this point, the final objectives desired are within sight...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Seeing Beyond The Bend In The Road

I would rather be there, than here. For here is the mundane, the conventional and the place resided in to pay the bills, and keep the roof over our heads. There, is where we once were, and the place where my heart still truly resides.

It was great to be back, even for a short time. It gave me chance to dream again; to get up into the hills and escape this version of man. In the hills, the chance arrives to be at one with nature, and to listen to the voices of the ancestors.

To taste the sorrow of all the mistakes that brought us to this point on mortal time. A chance to realise all the wrong turnings that lead our collective to this place.

Nothing can ever be changed. No clock can be put back to turn back time, and get the chance to make different decisions. For, in truth, all the same decisions would be made again, for the conscience is set to always take those choices.

And, it is great to think back, and go with the 'might have beens' to imagine what those other choices would have felt like. Maybe, they would have changed things; but maybe not. It is like that here, thinking of what can best be described as all the regrets; those failings that make us what we are; the weaknesses we all carry; but do our best to hide.

So, now that I've returned back to here, from there, and I have new memories to cherish, I realise how much life is different now. We all are anticipating the worst, for that is in our nature. We live with fear, each and every day. It is the way we are wired. But for some of us, it is not the same. For we know different. We've seen beyond the bend in the road; faced the unknown on the other side of the mirror. We really should know better; and we do. We sense the doom and gloom in the collective; as part of that 'cloud', but we also sense something more ... and it is that something more that sets us aside from what we may look like on the outside. Something has changed. But, for now ... we refuse to divulge what that something is ...

WiFi and EMF exposure causes DNA damage through peroxynitrite production in the body

[S.O.T.T]: A thorough review of the available published science on wireless (WiFi) and electromagnetic frequency (EMF) exposure has identified at least seven different ways that WiFi and EMF microwave pollution actively harms the human body.

Published in the journal Environmental Research, the peer-reviewed paper explains that exposure to WiFi signals, which are everywhere these days, can lead to: oxidative stress, sperm and testicular damage, neuropsychiatric effects including EEG (electroencephalogram) changes, apoptosis (programmed cell death), cellular DNA damage, endocrine changes, and calcium overload.

As many as 16 different reviews also show that exposure to other microwave EMFs is directly associated with these same effects as well as others, proving that living in the wireless age isn't nearly as safe as health authorities in collusion with the telecommunications industry would have us all believe.

Experts say that the predominant mechanism of action with EMFs - meaning the primary way that these invisible pollutants can harm your body - is through what's known as voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) activation.

According to science, VGCC activation caused by EMFs can eventually lead to cancer - though the general public isn't being told any of this, of course.

There are also said to be numerous other mechanisms through which WiFi and other forms of EMs can cause bodily harm, including through the activation of other voltage-gated ion channels, as well as via the geomagnetic magnetoreception mechanism and through calcium cyclotron resonance...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>>

The Danish Meteorological Institute Admits It Wrongly Reported Greenlands “Record Warm Temperature” This Summer

[David Icke]:The Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) admitted it wrongly reported Greenland’s record summer warmth, in what it called “good news from a climate perspective”…?

The DMI, a key player in monitoring Greenland’s climate, reported a “shocking” early-August temperature of between 2.7C (37F) and 4.7C (40.5F) at the Summit weather station, located some 3,202m above sea level at the center of the Greenland ice sheet.

This news quickly spread to every corner of the left-leaning web, like some nasty EOTW rash. But just a few days later the DMI posted a tweet retracting that record temp, saying that after a “closer look” (whatever that means exactly) it was revealed that the monitoring equipment had been giving “erroneous results”.

Lower World Realm Of Ancestors And Spirits

[Shamanic Journey]: The lower world is the realm of ancestors and spirits. The lower world is based in the natural world and it is the deepest aspect of our Soul. The root of our deepest thoughts and emotions.

It is a beautiful, earthy dimension, where we can connect with power animals. Since the beginning of time it contains nature’s secrets which are instinctual to our nature. This is where all that exists happens.

Where the power of the earth, its elements and its kingdoms can be encountered. Where wisdom as well as power may be brought forward into life itself. Every thought and idea planted and cultivated by humans throughout history are imprinted in the Lower World. Here is where the light within the earth may be accessed to bring growth as well as healing.

Travelling deep into the lower world is a sacred journey of initiation for the shaman. To retrieve their power, the shaman makes their descent into the lower world through powerful dreams or through altered states of consciousness.

The portal into the lower world can be entered through an opening like a hollow tree, a cave or maybe even a deep pool. Bringing back the visions from their journeys to their tribes, they will be acted out through sacred rites as well as ceremonies...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...
