Creeping Corporate Statism, aka Fascism
Despite depending on separate news media that purvey different realities, the two corporate parties both serve a corporate dictatorship.
When I look back to the beginning of Donald Trump’s presidency, four light years ago, the first image that comes to mind is that of Jimmy Dore’s conversation with Glenn Greenwald about Congressmember Adam Schiff’s appearance on The Tucker Carlson show. Schiff is a Democrat representing Orange County, California’s 28th District, and the military industrial complex . Northrop Grumman, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Raytheon are among his most generous campaign contributors. He voted against banning armed forces in Libya without congressional approval, voted against removing U.S. troops from Afghanistan, voted in favor of the Iraq War, voted in favor of arming moderate Syrian opposition rebels, and pushed for the US to arm Ukrainian rebels.
Greenwald told Dore that Kyle Kulinski had recommended Dore’s video “Tucker Carlson SHREDS Adam Schiff on Russian Election Hack,” and it was one of the funniest things he’d ever seen, so he’d be happy to appear on the Jimmy Dore Show any time. It was the beginning of a collaboration that keeps getting better, and the video that started it all is aging like a fine wine.
Here’s an excerpt of Dore’s commentary while playing the Tucker Carlson segment in which Schiff was insisting that Russians engineered Wikileaks’ release of the DNC and Podesta emails. Dore intervened right after Schiff told Carlson that Ronald Reagan would be rolling over in his grave to hear him carrying water for the Kremlin:
Jimmy Dore: A journalist [Tucker Carlson] asked him [Adam Schiff] to reveal his sources and to say something. “I want you to say that you know this for sure.” He won't say it. And what is his defense? His defense is the Hillary Clinton’s defense: “You're a commie. You're a commie. You're a commie.” That's what they're fucking doing. These are Democrats! . . . .
So do you see how shitty Republican the Democrats have become? They’re now the redbaiters. . . He's on Fox News red baiting a Fox News host who actually has it right this time. That's how shitty the Democrats have become. They’ve made Tucker Carlson look good. That's how shitty they are.
Comedian Dave Ryan: That is not easy.
Jimmy Dore: They're making him look like fuckin’ Walter Cronkite. Tucker Carlson!
Adam Schiff to Tucker Carlson: You’re gonna have to move your show to RT, Russian television.
Jimmy Dore: Can he not stop it? This is your defense? “You're gonna have to go work for Russia?” This is disgusting. These are Democrats doing this. This is gross. It doesn't help them get elected. It hurts them. This is hurting the Democrats. It doesn't help. This is 100% distraction from what the problem is in this goddamn country.
To Jimmy Dore’s credit, he acknowledged having once performed at a fundraiser for Adam Schiff, and Dave Ryan admitted to having made that mistake more than once. Both were no doubt spooked by whatever ghoulish Republicans Orange County spit up to run against Schiff, but they swore they’d never do it again. Greenwald, in one of his many reappearances on The Jimmy Dore Show, acknowledged that he’d once thought the Democrats were just kind of wishy-washy and spineless, but now he realizes they’re hopelessly corrupt. I hope it’s more than a tiny percentage of the tiny left fringe who had come along with them by the time Hillary, on her podcast with Nancy Pelosi, alleged that Trump was on the phone with Vladimir Putin during the Capitol Riot.
(And, not to be self-righteous, I should admit I voted for Bill Clinton in 1992, and, like Jimmy Dore, climbed aboard the Bernie Sanders train again this year, only to be open-mouthed when he dropped out after Obama’s Super Tuesday engineering on behalf of Joe Biden.)
Fascism
As soon as Trump won the presidency in 2016, the Democrats whipped up “The Resistance,” taking the name of movements that resisted within Nazi and Italian fascist-occupied Europe. Pacifica’s KPFA Radio began airing a “Resist, resist, resist” jingle, and on June 27, 2017, Pacifica Radio aired a 15-hour marathon broadcast of George Orwell’s novel “1984” for the first time since the original broadcast in 1975. That was just an early instance of Trump Derangement Syndrome and NeoMcCarthyism that consumed much of Pacifica and the rest of the left-of-center for the past four years.
There was much talk of impending fascism, but it wasn’t clear just what that was supposed to mean, and the frenzy about Trump’s white supremacist intolerance became hugely intolerant in itself. I’ve started keeping a list of dissidents, left and right, who’ve been suspended from Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and other social media platforms. As Glenn Greenwald said, in an interview with Unherd, “It’s Kafkaesque, and to call it that is almost to minimize how repressive it is.” There’s no one to appeal to but some anonymous Big Brother-Big Tech authority, and if they don’t give you an answer, tough luck.
Last week YouTube disappeared all 24 hours of an academic conference on academic censorship produced by Project Censored, with no explanation, when queried by Mint Press News writer Alan McCleod, Google responded that they had no record of its existence.
Ralph Nader’s 2014 book “Unstoppable: The Emerging Left-Right Alliance to Dismantle the Corporate State ” may have been overly optimistic, but it includes a far better definition of fascism than I’ve heard from anyone in the anti-Trump army these past four years:
“’Corporatism” or “corporate statism,’ as Grover Norquist calls it, is first and foremost a doctrine of corporate supremacy. Whatever advances that system of power and status over the constitutionally affirmed sovereignty of the people comprises the widening, all-encompassing corporatist agenda. As befits the ever-concentrating command of ever more mobile capital, labor, and technology—as well as its own media—the corporations’ dynamic of expanding control with ever more immunity knows no self-imposed limitations. Large corporations usually push, with whatever political, technological, economic, marketing, and cultural tools are required, the frontiers of domination in all directions. Wielding the tools to advance their agenda is an army of diverse experts and operators bound together by common economic interests within the authoritarian hierarchy of the modern global corporation. However you might describe them, it is hard to deny that their DNA commands them to control, undermine, or eliminate any force, tradition, or institution that impedes their expansion of sales, profits, and executive compensation. That is what their extensive strategic planning is all about. What they want is maximum predictability and the most feasible control of outcomes, with government being the preferred servicing or enforcement tool.
“That is what is meant by corporate statism. And as it gets stronger, it delivers a weaker economy for a majority of Americans, a weaker democratic society, and record riches for the few. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, though hailing from the patrician class, put his finger on the dangers of corporatism. He wasn’t charitable in his message to Congress in 1938, successfully calling for the creation of a Temporary National Economic Commission (TNEC) to examine the concentration of corporate power. He averred that 'the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than [the] democratic state in its essence is fascism.' Though World War II’s Axis powers gave the word a more lethal meaning, Roosevelt was equating fascism with the corporate state, uniting corporate influence with, over, and inside the government at state and national levels.”

How to Create a False Pandemic
Now the WHO states the diagnostic test isn’t fit for purpose and creates false positives, due to results being amplified too many times.
For the hard of thinking and BBC-watchers (but I repeat myself ), I will explain again what the PCR test does: it detects genetic sequences of viruses, but NOT viruses themselves. The more amplification cycles a test result goes through, the more genetic sequences it detects. As we all have all sorts of genetic debris floating about inside of us, to quote the inventor of the PCR test, “anyone can test positive for anything with the PCR. It doesn’t tell you you’re sick.”
Read this salutary tale from 2007 for what happens when PCR tests are inappropriately used to diagnose infectious illness:
https://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/22/health/22whoop.html
So, if you happen to be in the midst of orchestrating a pretend plague and want to create a lot of “positive cases” to terrify the masses, you simply amplify the PCR test results a lot of times. Have you noticed how the propaganda press is always going on about rises in CASES? Not deaths. Not hospitalisations. Not even the sniffles. Just “cases”. A “case” is a positive PCR result, and hence, in reality, meaningless. It doesn’t tell us anything about whether more people are ill or not.
Nevertheless, most people take headlines at face value and don’t and can’t think (critical thinking having been intentionally axed from the national curriculum years ago), so they believe an explosion in “cases” a pandemic makes.
Oh, but you know someone who was really sick “with Covid”? I’m heartless for denying its severity? Look: I don’t deny you knew someone very sick. They may even have died. But elderly and unwell people, and sometimes younger people, do die. It’s tragic, but it’s life. In normal circumstances, 1,600 people die every day in the UK alone. That number hasn’t significantly increased. Just because they “tested positive” on an unfit-for-purpose test shortly before their death does not prove they died “from Covid”, and it certainly doesn’t prove there’s a pandemic.
The PCR test has been used to create the illusion of a pandemic to manufacture your consent for a variety of despotically draconian and ultra-authoritarian measures that you never would have accepted unless you had been scare-mongered into compliance. The best way to control people is to scare them – all repressive regimes know that.
But – now we have the miraculous saviour vaccine, so the propaganda angle has got to change.
Hence – the WHO is now telling labs across the world to reduce the number of PCR cycles. This means a dramatic decrease in positive test results, which will be used as “evidence” the so-called vaccine is working.
Meanwhile, as bad reactions to the experimental gene therapies being marketed as vaccines mount up, this will be used as evidence for why we need to keep the restrictions, as bad vaccine reactions will be blamed on “the virus mutating” and as evidence we don’t have “herd immunity”. We will be told new and different vaccines are needed every six months or so to fight the never-ending “new strains”.
So, both restrictions and vaccines will go on and on and on. This will last until at least 2025, by which point, you will have been fully and irreversibly re-engineered, to be terrified of other people, to eschew all physical contact, to smother your airways and hide your face, and to view your fellow human beings with deep suspicion and hostility, snitching to the authorities if they break “the rules”, and viewing them as nothing but filthy disease vectors and potential mass murderers. That’s if you survive the next five years, of course, which, if you keep getting vaccinated, is not necessarily very likely. – especially if you’re older and/or have existing health problems.
That’s the future in store for you if you keep believing the execrable and mendacious lies being fed to you by your felonious government, and their state propaganda organs “the press”.
Yes, I know I’m just a crazy conspiracy theorist, and why should anyone listen to me? But you know what the biggest conspiracy theory of all time is? Trusting the Government, and believing they have your best interests at heart.
