Looking forward to the Flicker album.

Bobby Kennedy claims he’ll pardon Assange if he gets to be prez. I’ve concluded I won’t be voting ever in any election, but oh how I wish this could be the opportunity for Julian to finally go home to his family.

Change your mind and vote for Bobby. I think Bobby may be the leader we have been waiting for.

If he pulls a Bernie, I will give up on elections.

Ha. Bernie was the last one I voted for to also be sorely disappointed. I do like Bobby. A lot. I signed up to his emails on his site and I follow him elsewhere. I flew to Boston to see him announce. I wrote about it here: https://open.substack.com/pub/visceraladventure/p/just-tell-the-truth-bobby?r=xi283&utm_medium=ios&utm_campaign=post

And who knows, maybe I will change my mind, lots of time ‘til primaries. I’m just so disillusioned with our political system. Can’t fathom that anyone can enter the viven pit and come out alive without turning into a viper themselves.

Thanks, Pamela. I’m sure you would have had some epic photos from the event, if you were there.

The more I learn about the CIA, looking back on it, I now think Bernie was an op to defuse the left's anger and to channel their money and energy into a fake campaign. This is why Bernie never complained (to the consternation of his campaign staff) on the several occasions he was cheated in the primaries and why he sheepdogged his followers into his "good friend" Biden's campaign with no demands on Biden whatsoever. In other words, my current hypothesis is that Bernie was a deep state operative all along.

It's possible but more likely to me Bernie was just another spineless Dem posing as an agent for change like AOC et al who value their status over service to voters & easily manipulated to serve the power elite at the end of the day.

That was my previous assumption. It could still be true of course.

Two days ago, I watched a documentary entitled "Drugs as Weapons Against Us: The CIA War on Musicians and Activists" (available on Amazon Prime Video). It's a must-see. My takeaway was that the deep state is far more diabolical than I ever imagined. I asked myself what's the most diabolical explanation for the Bernie campaign.

I've begun looking at everyone with the least favorable view lately as well. Just so I can be prepared for the biggest disappointment. I used to wholeheartedly believe in the goodness of humans. And that's still there, but should never be assumed as a priori. Not after they weaponized our empathy so effen efficiently.

"But in the end, what will win the people over is simply just the ugly truth."

Absolutely.

Surely Bobby knows that the DNC is going to cheat him out of the nomination. The key question for me is what he will do then. Give up and sheepdog us into Biden's camp like Bernie did, or go third party and build a giant new coalition of Dems, independents and Republicans? If it's the former, I won't be donating. I have been through that movie.

Ditto. 🤮

We pick up the torch and carry on, and remember Julian, whether he is freed or not...

Good post, and thanks!
