They Live, We Sleep: A Dictatorship Disguised As A Democracy:

"You see them on the street.  You watch them on TV.  You might even vote one this Fall.  You think they're people just like you.  You're wrong.  You're dead wrong.  -- They Live". 

'A drifter discovers a pair of sunglasses that allow him to wake up to the fact that aliens have taken over the Earth'

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096256/ 

We're living in two worlds, you and I.  There's the world we see (or are made to see) and then there's the one we sense (and occasionally catch a glimpse of), the latter of which is a far cry from the propaganda-driven reality manufactured by the government and its corporate sponsors, including the media. 

Indeed, what most Americans perceive as life in America - privileged, progressive and free - is a far cry from reality, where economic inequality is growing, real agendas and real power are buried beneath layers of Orwellian doublespeak and corporate obfuscation, and "freedom," such that it is, is meted out in small, legalistic does by militarized police armed to the teeth. 

All is not as it seems. 

This is the premise of John Carpenter's film, They Live (1988), in which two migrant workers discover that the world's population is actually being controlled and exploited by aliens working in partnership with an oligarchic elite.  All the while, the populace - blissfully unaware of the real agenda at work in their lives - has been lulled into complacency, indoctrinated into compliance, bombarded with media distractions, and hypnotized by subliminal messages beamed out of television and various electronic devices, billboards and the like. ...

This indoctrination campaign engineered by the elite in They Live is painfully familiar to anyone who has studied the decline of American culture.  A citizenry that does not think for themselves, obeys without questions, is submissive, does not challenge authority, does not think outside the box, and is content to sit back and be entertained is a citizenry that can be easily controlled. ...

We're being fed a series of carefully contrived fictions that bear no resemblance to reality.  The powers-that-be want us to feel threatened by forces beyond our control (terrorists, shooters, bombers).  They want us afraid and dependent on the government and its militarized armies for our safety and well-being.  They want us distrustful of each other, divided by our prejudices, and at each other throats.  Most of all, they want us to continue to march in lockstep with their dictates. ...

Fear makes people stupid.

Fear is the method most often used by politicians to increase the power of government.  And, as most social commentators recognize, an atmosphere of fear permeates modern America: fear of terrorism, fear of the police, fear of our neighbors and so on. 

We have allowed ourselves to become fearful, controlled, pacified zombies.

  • This is one well said article. If anyone has had the slightest idea that we are being played, you were on to something that is way bigger that you could imagine. I don't believe that voting in one of the current government employees is going to amount to a change of any kind. There are several clandestine groups of powerful men who run this world. They are all pushing this "One World" ideology. They control the WhiteHouse and the Congress  and Bankers through many methods but there results are planned and executed.

    The Rutherford article is very accurate.

    Don't Be Fooled By The Political Game: The Illusion Of Freedom In America:

    "Being a citizen in the American corporate state is much like playing against a stacked deck: you're always going to lose. 

    The game is rigged, and "we the people" keep getting dealt the same losing hand." ...

  • Great article by John Whitehead, thanks Morning Star. This is what those of us here who have their eyes and ears open have been saying. The trouble is most people are asleep and those who are awake either won't believe or don't care or don't want to know the Truth. When you wake up from the American Dream you find out your not in the land of the free, you realize your in one of the chambers of Hell full of falsehoods, inhabited by liars, blasphemors run by Godless men and women with a God complex each seeking to control this world of lies they have sold their souls to create serving their master Beelzebulb. I hope everyone who reads this article will try to share it with an unbeliever or one who still dreams.
    After all, fantasy is for children, as is fear. What we need to be are realists who fear no one.

      Hello. Good Article!  Thank Morning Star.  The first time I saw the film "They live" 25 years ago.  I was deeply shocked by its realism, its proximity to all that is happening around us in the real world.    I knew in the back of my mind that it is necessary to fight. But I have not started to operate. I continued to live as he lived before. I was young, I breathed in deeply. I indulged in all the pleasures of life. I spent my time in the pursuit of happiness.  I woke up from a long sleep of my mind, only 3 years ago. And I began to defend human rights. Today my weapon is a pen, paper and printing my charity. But if tomorrow the hour of X, in my bedroom waiting for me in the safe my  iron friends, my shotguns and carbines. And if fate will be like, I'll see the color of blood from Allen enslaved land. Michael M. Regan wrote : «The trouble is most people are asleep and those who are awake either won't believe or don't care or don't want to know the Truth». But I cannot blame those who are asleep, those who do not want to know the truth, and those who do not care about the future. In the past I was like them. But I'm going to believe that they will wake up too.  Sincerely, Evgeniy.

      • yes people are waking up.   but it is frightening. 

  • Has anyone seen the movie "The Matrix" - - - you're living in it.

    Orwell's "1984" is just window dressing compared to reality now.

    Politics In One Page - Elections Are Great Illusions:

    "In every election season, a new generation comes of age and experiences the political theater for the first time.  The experience is formative.  It challenges you to decide what you think about the world.  Which candidate best represents my values and shares my sense of how things ought to be?  More fundamentally, how should things be in politics? 

    As time goes on and you experience successive presidential election cycles, illusions begin to fall away.  You start to see the whole thing for what it is. 

    So this article is for those who do not yet see.  It is a quick tutorial in political reality, and a way to avoid the pain and suffering that comes with gradually discovering that reality on your own." ...
