There supposedly was a lecture given by Dr. Richard Day in 1969 that pretty accurately describes today. Only one guy from the audience has spoken up and made it public as far as I can find unless the story was manufactured elsewhere. If the plan was in place in 1969 they sure didn't seem to alter it much, as all one has to do is pay attention to what is going on here in the America, Canada, and elsewhere to see that it is possible that in 1969 some folks knew what 2023 would be like.
To me almost all of this has already happened or is happening with the main goal of reducing the population.
There is a power, a force or a group of men organizing and redirecting change
* Everything is in place and nobody can stop us now
* Redirecting the purpose of sex; sex without reproduction and reproduction without sex
* Sex education as a tool of World Government
* Tax funded abortion as population control
* Anything goes - Homosexuality to be encouraged
* Families to diminish in importance
* Euthanasia and the "Demise Pill"
* Limiting access to affordable medical care makes eliminating elderly easier
* Planning the control over medicine
* Elimination of private doctors
* Introducing new difficult to diagnose and untreatable diseases
* Suppressing cancer cures as a means of population control
* Inducing heart attacks as a form of assassination

* Changing the Bible through revision of key words
* The churches will help us
* Restructuring education as a tool of indoctrination
* Controlling who has access to information
* Some books would just disappear from the libraries
* The encouragement of drug abuse to create a jungle atmosphere
* Alcohol abuse
* The need for more jails and using hospitals as jails
I have heard most of the nine songs at Datta Banana Leaf so often I don’t even have them on my playlists any more. But I had completely forgotten “Hazard” by Richard Marx—I used to love that song, and can’t even remember the last time I heard it. I queued it up, and it’s just as good as I remembered, maybe because unlike the others, they haven’t quite worn it out yet. I don’t know that I would want to hear it every night, though.
If that 1950s writer was correct about it being considered “ill-bred and irreligious in Laos to work more than is necessary,” I guess some of the behavior Leana and Tony described shouldn’t be all that surprising. But I’ll bet it’s probably one of the few cultural beliefs you’ll catch a non-native fully embracing.
I remember reading about that to-do about the Plexiglas in Philly when it first came up. The people who come up with these silly rules apparently figure they have a captive audience, and don’t realize that if you bar other solutions, businesses eventually come up with the one remaining one—pack up and leave the city center. On any given day now, you can read about businesses closing up shop in some big city or other. Just yesterday, I read about Walmart closing 4 of 8 stores in Chicago, then Whole Foods closing their “flagship” store in downtown SF after only a year. Like Amazon in Seattle, they usually say it is for “the safety of employees” or some such thing, because we wouldn’t want to hurt anyone’s “feelz” by saying publicly what the real reason is, would we?
Speaking of the big city and its perils, I’m not looking forward to the 4-hour slog I have to make to the big city tomorrow, but it’s unavoidable. I have to go to the airport to meet two international flights—dropping off my stepmother for an outbound flight, and picking up my wife on an inbound one. Even without the attendant hazards of the city itself, the traffic is still abominable. I only go once or twice a year now, and only for this reason, and can hardly stand it—I don’t know how people who live there deal with it every day. It’s strange how all the big cities are being allowed, even actively encouraged, to degrade so badly, given that Herr Schwab and Co. are supposedly trying so hard to convince us to allow ourselves to be herded into them.
I've been almost nowhere and done almost nothing. I really appreciate the intimacy and complexity of my little space here. I love your writing and your keen perspective on many things. Helps me not feel so alone in this world full of deception. Glad to be here.
Mr Douglas, pack a small backpack with a bottle of water, a couple of sandwiches, energy drinks. Carry a rain coat and wear comfortable boots and just walk and trust the universe. Your common sense will kick in and "been almost nowhere and done almost nothing" will be a thing of the past.
"Site of a 1968 series of battles where roughly 10,000 people died, including Lao soldiers fighting alongside Americans and South Vietnamese, it’s still not clear what anyone was trying to achieve. History is a litany of human sacrifices."
We'll soon be asking ourselves the same regarding Bakhmut and other places. Why did all those young people who are basically cousins slaughtered each other for? MIC profits?
Yes, I grew up in the country where the door was often unlocked. Circumstances left me in a series of motels for a fee months this past year. Sitting alone behind locked motel doors can be downright miserable. A safe room, moderately clean room with an open door, flower pots, personal effects often looks alright.
I was raised Catholic, but stopped going to church in my teens. In my mid 20's, I read Simone Weil and a bit of Swedenborg, and that was my last serious attempt to grapple with Catholicism.
Linh, have you ever thought about writing an autobiography? Who’s had a more interesting life, or lived in more places, than you? Can’t think of another American who has.
I think many people would read it but it’s a lotta work and who needs more work in their life ~ 60-no one.
You mentioned Catholicism. If I wrote an autobiography, it would be a tedious and ultimately dishonest exercise in vanity! Plus, I've seen this and that but have done almost nothing.
You say your autobiography would be tedious and ultimately dishonest. You don't seem to realise that you've already written - and continue to write - your autobiography. And, without wishing to seem like an old school marm, I don't believe it's for you to decide what others will find tedious.
To the contrary, your living autobiography is an inspiration - at least to me. Your stories remind me of my first 30 years before I became a father and had to stop travelling through urban bellies around the world. But now that my lad is self sufficient reading your daily dairy has inspired me to realise that old age isn't just a time to slump in a rocking chair and reminisce - it's a time to get out and seek life once again outside the daily 8 to 5 grind.
You might have a fairly small audience but we wouldn't be here if you had nothing to say. Many live vicariously through you and some of us might even end up actually living again as a result of you.
You are entirely too hard on yourself. You’ve survived against calamities that would have destroyed most people. People from all over the world look forward to your posts. That’s a big deal.
When I saw you with Chris Hedges my mind blew up. You fully understand the American Milieu. My background is strictly Working Class and when I hear pundits discussing the problems in our society all I can do is shake my head-no clue at all. You get it.
Just a question for you Linh-have you ever read any of Archbishop Vigano's writings? I have and he seems to have a very good grasp on the satanic nature of the west's leaders today.

A good friend calls what you describe as "trail magic". Although he doesn't bother with the food and water! Cheers

No, they did it because the USA wants a uni-polar world. If this does not make sense, do a bit of research.
"Mirrors on the ceiling, pink champagne on ice. She said..." Something about prisoners.
The hotel/motel scene in America can leave anyone running for the door. Hope that it's not locked.
Hi Troy, I like the ones where long term residents leave their doors open!--Linh

Linh, do you ever miss Catholicism?
