ECHOES OF WAR: Remember Adam Helmer. He gets no famous poem like Paul Revere, no marble statue in a grand square. But on September 17, 1778, he ran 26 miles ahead of death itself and saved a whole valley of families, and that is as fine a thing as any soldier did in the entire war.

On this day in 1778, a settlement in the Mohawk Valley was burned to the ground, and yet almost nobody in it died, because one man ran 26 miles through the wilderness with warriors on his heels to warn his neighbors that death was coming.

DAVID A. HUGHES: it's only really a kind of trauma bonding which psychologically incapacitates people from being able to accept that.

Dr. David Hughes by Maryann Gebauer

Global technocracy and how to escape

Read on Substack

Dr. David Hughes is an expert on psychological warfare, Covid-19, the deep state, intelligence crime, technocracy, and resurgent totalitarianism. We discuss the military operation under foot and how to effectively resist. Dr. Hughes is Senior Lecturer in International Relations at the University of Lincoln and a graduate of Oxford. He just released his latest book, Covid-19: Psychological Operations, and the War for Technocracy, 2024.  His next book was Wall Street, the Nazis, and the Crimes of the Deep State, 2024.  [As to "deep state," a better name for "it" or "them" is counter state.  Linuxhippie points out that, "There is no "Deep State". That's a made up term to replace what is actually the "cause" of our issues--The Counter-State."]

Check out Dr. David A. Hughes's Substack.

25:15.  The government did it at the behest of as I say more powerful interests through the transnational deep state.  It knew the kinds of harm that it was inflicting through lockdown and yet he kept the UK population in a state of almost continual lockdown until July 2021 so I'm afraid the cold facts and hard evidence are there and it's only really a kind of trauma bonding which psychologically incapacitates people from being able to accept that.

26:00.  Categories of people in response to this psychological warfare you suggested that there's really three groups of people.

26:07.  Yes this isn't in the book but this is something which came up in an interview I did yesterday but I think it's just a useful way of thinking about this.  In many ways, it goes back to a British independent researcher by the name of Andrew Johnson [Substack] who's done really great work around 9/11.  But in one of his kind of memorable phrases he said something along the lines of essentially what you have when dealing with these kind of deep structural events is you have the official approved narrative, and that's the one that most people believe.  That's the one that the governments push, that the mainstream media pushes and the hypnotized masses generally follow and can't see outside of.  Then you have the official, approved alternative version of events and it seems that that is largely placed there by design to kind of herd up those people who do realize actually there is something wrong with the official narrative in category one.  So in Category 2, what you often find are supposed dissidents who nevertheless their voices amplified greatly.  They don't find themselves shadow banned and censored.  Sometimes some of these figures are quite hard to get away from. So again in this country we have a guy called Alex Creel who goes by the name of "Thinking Slow," and he's done really important work around this.  And he looks at figures like Russell Brand, for example, and says when you look at the kind of viewership figures that this guy racks up, it's simply not plausible that he's actually offering any dissident thought.  He's actually supported by the main platforms.  He's actually promoted by them and even when there was that Scandal surrounding him a few months ago he actually ended up making more money and gaining more views after that so these kind of figures kind of fail upwards.  In contrast, when we get to Category 3 . . . So let's come back to Andrew Johnson you have the official version of events the official alternative version of events and Category 3 is the truth and when you get to Category 3 that's when you're dealing with genuine dissidents.  And as Creel explains, the genuine dissidents tend to be the people that you've never heard of because they are throttled at every stage in terms of their freedom of reach so again this is why the social media is so damaging in terms of being able to limit the exposure of certain people.

TEACHING BEYOND 9/11: devotes only a paragraph to the attacks themselves. It says that the United States merely “accused” Osama bin Laden of masterminding them. No mention on Islamic Terror as a context or the Crusades

— City Journal (@CityJournal) September 14, 2026

A North American Values Institute (NAVI) review of other materials found a pattern of activist framing of the terrorist attacks that leaves children ignorant of the ideological forces that drove the attackers and steers them toward activism instead of understanding.  --Dana Stangel-Plowe

from Dana Stangel-Plowe,

One of the nation’s most elite schools of education—the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education—created “Teaching Beyond 9/11,” a “multimodal curriculum for high school and college educators,” whose title suggests a comprehensive treatment of the events. But its lessons devote only a paragraph to the attacks themselves. It says that the United States merely “accused” Osama bin Laden of masterminding them. It does not explain al-Qaeda’s responsibility or the Taliban’s role in sheltering the group.

Meantime, the curriculum presents over 50 lessons about Islamophobia, racism, American power, and “social justice.” Students are encouraged to adopt political interpretations of the attacks and their aftermath and asked to identify “avenues for solidarity,” imagine “better futures,” and become motivated to act for social change. The curriculum includes a unit on “right-wing extremism” but offers no examination of Islamist extremism—the ideology that motivated the attack on America. 

. . . 

Terrorism is the deliberate targeting of innocent civilians to achieve a political, ideological, or religious objective. Students should understand the moral difference between those who deliberately target civilians and those acting to defend people from such attacks.

Unfortunately, the Penn curriculum is only one example of curricula that downplay 9/11 history. A North American Values Institute (NAVI) review of other materials found a pattern of activist framing of the terrorist attacks that leaves children ignorant of the ideological forces that drove the attackers and steers them toward activism instead of understanding. One teaching guide, promoted by the National Education Association, the nation’s largest teachers’ union, encourages students to blame U.S. policy for 9/11—for example, by asking “why some people hate the U.S. enough to kill thousands of people.” In a lesson on the American Federation of Teachers’ “Share My Lesson” platform, students read Osama bin Laden’s “Letter to America” uncritically and are asked only to summarize his arguments and find reasons for his anti-Semitism: “Why do you think Osama bin Laden hates Jews so much?”

HEATHER MACDONALD: Disparate impact is our greatest weapon against Merit. It is their greatest weapon against excellence and it is an abuse of the spirit of our civil rights laws

Uncomfortable Topics with Heather MacDonald: Race, Skills Gap, Disparate Impact & the Role of Women, John Stossel, with Heather MacDonald, February 17, 2026.

8:09  You say disparate impact is destroying America.  Most people don't even know what it is. 

8:13  It is a concept that was one of the greatest success stories of the Civil Rights that was running out of cases to prosecute and wanted to expand its jurisdiction indefinitely into the future and massively across society.  The history of it, we had civil rights statutes that were passed in the 1960s necessarily, belatedly, long overdue, that said as employers you may not discriminate against applicants based on the color of their skin.  And you may disagree with those. You may think that that's . . . For now we will give that a pass that you couldn't intentionally discriminate and that was seen as the way to dismantle America's long Legacy of racism got their act together and stop discriminating intentionally so the courts and activists came up with a new definition of what would be illegal discrimination and it gets rid of the idea of intention and intentional discrimination completely. Disparate impact is the conceit that if there's a standard that blacks do more poorly at is discriminatory so if you have a certain expectation of reading level or math skills to be a firefighter a police officer and an employer administers a test and blacks do more poorly on that, that's a racist test.  Instead of meeting the standard, our response is to throw out the standard.  And the employer is not racist.  You don't have to show that the employer wants to discriminate against blacks.  The employer just wants to qualified workforce.  But if he has used some kind of standard that means that there are fewer blacks qualifying that then becomes something that violates civil rights.  

10:43.  I'll give you an example right out of the fight Administration.  The Maryland State Police wanted to make sure that the state troopers could read at a very basic level because as a police officer you're going to need to write police reports you're going to need to understand the patrol guide you're going to need some level of dealing with written language and being able to read and write.  Very minimal level. So the Maryland State Police had a written exam and this is the type of question.  Four very simple paragraphs written at like maybe a third grade level that discussed theft from libraries in the United States.  And then followed up a true or false question.  Is theft a problem in US libraries?  Just reading comprehension.  Have you been able to understand this four-paragraph passage?  Well this test and the questions, were all at that level of simplicity, had what's known as a disparate impact on black applicants to be Maryland state troopers.  Black applicants failed the test at higher rates then whites.  The Maryland state troopers didn't intend to exclude black state troopers racism had nothing to do with it it was a color blind neutral test of skills but because it had a pretty impact on black applicants and disqualified more black applicants the Biden justice department brought a suit against the Maryland State Police for having a discriminatory test. 

Hiring tests that unfairly and unlawfully excluded them from employment.  --Kristen Clarke

12:33.  This is ridiculous taxpayers should not be on the hook for this it was not a racist Department desperate impact means that an institution can be completely color blind it can want to have as many different races as possible but if it has a standard that is color blind meritocratic but that blacks do poorly on you've got to throw out the standard and it's not just sort of Public Service jobs like policing

"Black, Hispanic NYers who failed teacher's test strike $1.8 billion in NYC settlement," New York Post, July 15, 2023.

Our taxpayers in New York recently paid out $2 billion dollars in damages because the exam for licensing teachers in New York State, which I can tell you went through decades of being dumbed down to proleptically avoid disparate impact.  Blacks still didn't do as well on it and so a court decided even though you've spent decades throwing out every question on this exam that has too wide a racial Divergence it's still you still didn't have the same proportion of black applicants passing as white applicants we're going to throw out the exam and you New York taxpayers are liable for $2 billion dollars.  Disparate impact is our greatest weapon against Merit.  It is their greatest weapon against excellence and it is an abuse of the spirit of our civil rights laws, which was to say "we're going to allow everybody to reach their highest potential.  We ban discrimination but we do not ban excellence.  We do not ban high expectations.  We want all people to reach the same level of competence.  We're not going to have two standards of achievement: one for a particular race, another for another race.  One for a particular sex, another for a different sex.  We are going to have a single level of excellence in the society, and that is how we're going to move forward.

PETER CLACK: Virtually all heavy industry across the West is now in chronic decline. Simultaneously, the supply chain for this transition has been handed lock, stock, and barrel to Beijing.

Thank you to Colonel Towner-Watkins. 

Virtually all heavy industry across the West is now in chronic decline. Manufacturing jobs are being hollowed out, striking directly at power-intensive sectors like electric arc steel, aluminium smelting, and fertiliser production. Once-abundant, cheap, and reliable hydrocarbon energy is being degraded and decommissioned in favour of weather-dependent renewables. Simultaneously, the supply chain for this transition has been handed lock, stock, and barrel to Beijing.

This may well go down as the single greatest transfer of public assets by elected democratic governments in world history. Without any serious consultation with their own citizens, Western governments eagerly aligned with the UN and signed onto framework agreements like the 2015 Paris Accord. What began as voluntary international targets rapidly morphed into binding domestic legislation. The resulting legacy is the systematic exclusion of taxpayers from decision-making, while administrations power ahead, committing billions in subsidies to unproven pet projects—such as Australia’s much-hyped green hydrogen initiative. Virtually all heavy industry across the West is now in chronic decline. Manufacturing jobs are being hollowed out, striking directly at power-intensive sectors like electric arc steel, aluminium smelting, and fertiliser production. Once-abundant, cheap, and reliable hydrocarbon energy is being degraded and decommissioned in favour of weather-dependent renewables. Simultaneously, the supply chain for this transition has been handed lock, stock, and barrel to Beijing. China now produces roughly 90% of all photovoltaic components, refined critical minerals, and panel hardware—cementing its position as the greatest manufacturing power in history through an unprecedented transfer of Western wealth. In place of high-density power generation, more than a million wind turbines and an estimated 9 billion solar panels are now scattered across open farmlands, hillsides, and coastal vistas. Because these sources are intermittent and unreliable, integrating them into existing power grids presents a colossal $21 trillion global infrastructure challenge. Prior to this shift, Western industrial policy prioritised dense, dispatchable energy security. Today, governments unilaterally lock in multi-decade decarbonisation commitments that outlast their electoral tenures by decades. Vast tracts of public and agricultural land are greenlit and bulldozed for transmission corridors, access roads, and sprawling industrial turbine arrays—all to serve an intangible belief system that vilifies carbon dioxide, the very driver of essential energy and biological growth. The tangible result? Some of the most expensive household power bills in modern history, the destruction of dispatchable coal and gas capacity, and severe damage to national industrial, economic, and defensive resilience. As one outraged writer noted, Net Zero stands as perhaps the most diabolical act of self-inflicted harm ever visited upon democratic nations by their own leadership. Government by regulatory decree is not government by representation. Mandating a multi-decade economic rewiring without an explicit electoral mandate violates the fundamental social contract between the state and the citizen. Locking in 30-year subsidy contracts strips future generations of their democratic right to adjust policy based on real-world performance.

If we weren’t so accustomed to being betrayed, it would be recognised for what it is: a raw, heavy-handed exercise in power at the expense of the people.

She pierced the immunity of the medical board that suspended her license over Covid “disinformation.” A judge ruled she can now sue the board members personally. “Their broad immunity that they thought would protect them has been pierced.” “The judge said, ‘You can go after them for damages, even potentially including punitive damages.’” This sets a groundbreaking precedent. “There were a whole lot of doctors out there that had similar attacks.” “Somebody had to do it.”

Hello Sir, My rural Appalachian town Saint Marys Pennsylvania was recently flooded with dozens of illegal immigrants. They are doing Walmart deliveries with fraudulent or stolen accounts and many of us native drivers are out of work and struggling. The seniors who rely on these grocery deliveries to eat are being affected as well… The illegals all drive cars with out of state license plates…. I am trying to figure out how to save our community, many of us drivers have reported them to ICE but they haven’t came out here yet to deport them. The illegals come and go from the Walmart here in Saint Marys dozens of times a day. Do you think ICE will eventually come here? It would be the easiest deportations ever, we’re including their car makes/models/license plate numbers in our ICE reports, Thank you,

WILL TANNER: The Congo reverted to cannibalism and warlords after the Belgians left

Fourth, the big headline of the book, a whopper really, is Hochschild’s claim that the population of the Congo fell by 50 percent or 10 million on Léopold’s watch. The EIC, he claims, caused “depopulation” and “mass murder” of “genocidal proportions” due to its drive for rubber profits. In fact, the most knowledgeable estimates today suggest that the general population of the Congo rose slightly during the EIC era and that any deaths attributable to the limited abuses in the rubber areas were far outweighed by the lives saved and created by the EIC’s direct interventions in other respects. Even if we can agree that any life lost to senseless violence and negligent governance is always and everywhere deserving of condemnation, Léopold’s regime was a monumental achievement in saving and promoting black lives.  --Bruce Gilley

The Congo reverted to cannibalism and warlords after the Belgians left

Now it has child slaves working in pit mines to mine cobalt, instead of the complex mechanized machinery the Belgians built and left (the Africans refused to maintain it)

The African Congo is primarily made up of two countries: the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the Republic of the Congo. The DRC is the larger of the two, while the Republic of the Congo is located to the west of the DRC. Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, written in 1899, Seems like most of the information on King Leopold's colony in the Congo is driven by anti-Colonialists and Marxists.

The American author Adam Hochschild in the 1990s rewrote 20,000 deaths in Congo caused by fights with the Belgian police into a genocide of 20 million. Of course no African author before 1990 ever said so.

But now Africans believe Hochschild's story and even claim that anything… pic.twitter.com/6ygoP3WsjI

"King Hochschild's Hoax: An absurdly deceptive on Congolese rubber production is better described as historical fiction," Bruce Gilley, The American Conservative, April 17, 2023. 

King Leopold's Ghost: A Story of Greed, Terror, and Heroism in Colonial Africa, Adam Hochschild, 1999.

This distortion is no mere technicality. Rather, it is the central lie of King Leopold’s Ghost. The freelance EIC had at its peak just 1,500 administrative officers and about 19,000 police and soldiers for an area one third the size of the continental United States. As such, it exerted virtually no control over most areas, which were in the hands either of Arab slave-traders and African warlords, or of native soldiers nominally in the employ of Belgian concession companies without a white man for a hundred miles. Hochschild’s description of the EIC as “totalitarian” is bizarre, as is his claim that Léopold exerted a “framework of control…across his enormous realm.” If only this were true.

That is why Congo reformers like Morel, much to the annoyance of Hochschild, advocated either German or British colonization of the area. Morel’s view, according to Hochschild, speaking ex cathedra from the hallowed seat of modern California, “seems surprising to us today” and was among his “faults” and “political limitations.” Quite the opposite. The moment the Belgians colonized the Congo in 1908, a miraculous improvement was noted on all fronts. Seeking to debunk colonialism, Hochschild’s book demonstrates the opposite. This is the first and biggest lie at the heart of King Leopold’s Ghost.

Here are the facts. By 1891, six years into the attempt to build the EIC, the whole project was on the verge of bankruptcy. It would have been easy for Léopold to raise revenues by sanctioning imports of liquor that could be taxed or by levying fees on the number of huts in each village, both of which would have caused harm to the native population. A truly “greedy” king, as Hochschild repeatedly calls him, had many fiscal options that Léopold did not exercise.

Instead, he did what most other colonial governments and many post-colonial ones in Africa did: He imposed a labor requirement in lieu of taxes. In a small part of the upper Congo river area, he declared an EIC monopoly over “natural products,” including rubber and ivory, that could be harvested as part of the labor requirement to pay for the territory’s government. From 1896 to 1904, an EIC company and two private companies operated in this area, which covered about 15 percent of the territory and held about a fifth of the population. The resulting rubber revenues temporarily saved the EIC, but only until rubber prices collapsed. Still, the preservation of the EIC meant the preservation of its life-saving interventions against disease, tribal war, slavery, and grinding poverty that had bedeviled the region since recorded time. 

The rubber quotas imposed on natives in this 15 percent of the territory were enforced by native soldiers working for the companies or for the EIC itself. In many areas, the rubber came with ease and the natives prospered. The rubber station at Irengi, for instance, was known for its bulging stores and hospitable locals, whose women spent a lot of time making bracelets and where “no one ever misses a meal,” noted the EIC soldier George Bricusse in his memoirs. Elsewhere, however, absent direct supervision, and with the difficulties of meeting quotas greater, some native soldiers engaged in abusive behavior to force the collection. Bricusse noted these areas as well, especially where locals had sabotaged rubber stations and then fled to the French Congo to the north. In rare cases, native soldiers kidnapped women or killed men to exact revenge. When they fell into skirmishes, they sometimes followed long-standing Arab and African traditions by cutting off the hands or feet of the fallen as trophies, or to show that the bullets they fired had been used in battle. How many locals died in these frays is unclear, but the confirmed cases might put the figure at about 10,000, a terrible number.

Most memorably for readers, Hochschild reprints staged photographs taken by the English missionary Alice Seeley Harris and supplied to the anti-Léopold campaign through the English missionary John Weeks. The missionaries knew that showing these fake photos at “lantern shows” in community halls in Britain won more attention and donations than their detailed accounts of cannibalism and sleeping sickness ravaging their areas.  Hochschild does not tell the reader that the photographs are staged, nor does he explain that the photographs of people with severed hands were victims of gangrene, tribal vendettas, or cannibalism having nothing to do with rubber.

In the most famous photo of them all, a man whom Seeley got to sit on the veranda of her mission station with a severed hand and foot before him, the original caption given by Morel reads: “Sala of Wala and remains of his five year old daughter; both wife and child were eaten by king’s soldiers at a cannibal feast.”
