The 20th Century saw a great global uprising against European imperialism as the former colonial countries shook off their shackles and rose up for independence. More than a half century later, global inequality is sharper than ever before. To understand the current predicament of the vast majority of the world's people, we must understand the intervening decades. Matt Kennard and Claire Provost's book, Silent Coup: How Corporations Overthrew Democracy, looks inside the international architecture of global corporate governance that exists to flout and crush any attempts by the former colonial world to enact development on their own terms. Matt Kennard joins The Chris Hedges Report for a look at this intriguing and essential history.

silly,rather than extending gratitude against wealth disparity urge him to advocate for educating his listeners of the power of informed citizenry and methods to assure the equality of opportunity for all members of society.This wealth distribution disparity is just a straw man for lefties to fuel discontent and unrest instead of proposing constructive solutions to a problem of social injustice,

There's a direct link between Scientology, Trump, and the techniques used by the right wing echosphere, who also tie to NXIVM (Elon promoted it) Epstein (Trump's bff for20+ years) and Saville, (who Brand idolised) and the Monarchy who (Shapiro and Piers Morgan defends). Tate dated Peterson's daughter and Elon went to the same Jesuit University as Trump, and Epstein hooked up Elon's brother, just like he did for Trump. Trump's lawyer Alan Dershowitz said he was introduced to Epstein by Lynn de Forrester Rosschild. Scientology is training these people in the tactics of brainwashing, basically what MK Ultra became, and probably run by the CIA, and Opus Dei, which is basically the same thing. Their principle strategy is Gaslighting. Gaslighting, aka Grooming. Accusation in a mirror (AiM), mirror politics, mirror propaganda, mirror image propaganda, is a hate-speech incitement technique where one falsely attributes to one's adversaries the intentions that one has for oneself and/or the actions that one is in the process of enacting. It was used in Rwanda, Guatemala, Brazil, and Burma, each having ties to Mossad. Trump, Barr, Bannon, Cippolone, Gore, Guiliani, Leo, Alito, Thomas, and Barrett are all Opus Dei. Trump trained alongside Epstein and Roger Stone under Roy Cohn, who used kids to blackmail politicians on behalf of Mossad. Cohn trained under Meyer Lansky, who trained under Hoover. Robert Mercer and Rupert Murdoch are both Knights of Malta. Saville, Bezos, Gates, Koch, Rogan, Walsh, Crowder, Kirk, Fuentes, Dore, Knowles, Kulinksi, Ball, Iverson, Icke, Woods, Watson, Cernovich, Abbott, Jones, Robinson, Woods, Pool, Rubin, Peterson, Posobeic, Duke, Molyneux, Yilanopouse, Gionet, Richardson, Tillerson, Greene, Manaforte, Flynn, Ducey, Acosta, Attwood, Stone, Pence, Desantis, Meadows, Trump, Eastman, Black, Kerik, Melania, Barr, Bannon, Hawley, Gingrich, Abrams, Comey, Cuomo, Kerry, Abrams, Gore, Spencer, Blassio, Pompeo, Bolton, McCarthy, Nugent, Cruz, Rubio, Gaetz, Santos, Tucker, Gutfield, O'Reilly, Beck, Scarborough, Devos, Kasich, Mercer, Murdoch, Rosschild, Ingram, Kelly, Lake, Conway, Coulter, Huckabee, McEnany, Hannity, Spicer, Christie, Prager, Maher, Colbert, Corbett, Hayes, Biden, Harris, Fauci, Pelosi, Menendez, Pirro, Manchin, Cooper, Maddow, AOC, Newsom, Uyger, Dawkins, Hitchens, Hancock, Sitchin, Ventura, Morgan, Cowell, Farage, Johnson, May, Merkel, Blair, Cameron, Brown, Blair, Mogg, Benjamin, Trudeau, Putin, Bolsanaro, Stalin, Lenin, Tito, Trotsky, Hitler. Special mentions (adjucants): Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris, Miller, Watters, Greenwad, Blumenthal, Maté, Camp, Brand, Loomer, Shapiro, Thatcher, Bush, Obama, Merkel, Greer, Summers, Silverstein, Adelson. Greenblatt. Wexner. Also Hindu Nationalists Ramaswamy, Tulsi, Haley, Hirsi, DeSouza, Modi etc. Edward Snowden worked for Pentagon Comptroller Dov Zakheim and was bought to us by Glen Greenwald, who now rubs shoulders with Jesuit Agent Provocateurs Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan, whose mutual friend with Steven Crowder Brian Callen is the founder of Diligence, a spook Contractor to the CIA. Julian Assange helped Roger Stone and the Trump Campaign in 2016, being the first to suggest challenging the outcome if he lost, and asking to be made the Australian ambassador to the US. Margeret Sunbyrne, the head of the Sun Worship Cult he was raised in was also protected by the CIA in the Australian Supreme Court, on grounds of "National Security" Trump paints himself Orange to represent Apollo. Aleister Crowley inspired NXIvM and Manson, and was a master of mind control, his Protege L Ron Hubbard was the founder of Scientology, which uses the same mind control tactics displayed in right wing media. They were also instrumental in Trump's conception as the Moon Child, born on a Super Wolf Blood Moon on June 14 700 days before the founding of Israel, who he gave sovereignty over the Golan heights on its 70th anniversary, and was inaugurated aged 70 years 7 months and 7 days old. June 14 is the birthday of Osiris, Known as the Day of the Pharoah. Scientology uses the same tricks as Religion and Freemasonry, including isolation through strange acts (rituals/hazing) Gaslighting and intimadation, these can also be seen in right wing propaganda. Peterson's hero's journey comes from the transit of the moon through the zodiac, which is why they're called months. Blame the victim: The strategy is to make the aggressor's feelings the goalposts, everything is oriented around their needs and approval; a war of attrition using subjective language and logical fallacies such as incredulity, which amounts to disbelief, and acting as if this belief is something the victim is responsible for. "Look what you made me do" *In the context of child sexual abuse (CSA) the **_gaslighting_** is often used to convince the victim all the abusive behaviours are fine, normal and an expression of “love” (for eg Patriotism, Christianity, Service). It is used to ensure the victim doesn’t speak out about it and doesn’t fight back. It can also be used in concert with other **_grooming_** tactics like fear and isolation. Ultimately the aim is to legitimise a worldview that is detached from reality, and therefore arbitrary. Now they can call evil good and good evil* *>>Trivializing:* *The victim’s feels are made to feel like they don’t matter, are **_unfounded_** or they are weak for thinking so.* (woke/ lib/ groomer/ infidel etc) *>>Countering: This is quintessential gaslighting.* *They **_directly counter the memories and perceptions of the victim._* *>>Repetitive Questions: The abusive partner makes the victim doubt what they think or feel by asking the same question multiple times.* by doing so they preemptively assume the role of an authority by proxy. *>>Diverting: The abuser diverts the subject and puts the blame into outside circumstances.* *>>No true Scotsman, or appeal to purity* is an informal fallacy in which one attempts to *protect their generalized statement from a falsifying counterexample* by trying to _exclude the counterexample_ improperly. This is the Core of White Supremacist ideology. *"What Others Say" (Appeal to populism)* The abuser tells the victim what other people "think" about the victim, the abuser and/or the situation on whole. Also known as an appeal to populism, the basis of Authoritarian Communism, and Cults, "if many believe it then it must be true" (whether people actually agree with the position and whether it is true or not). Bolshevism itself means "the Majority" and is no different to Fascist appeals to a "Moral Majority" Patriotism is a form of Authoritarian Communism. Other than direct contradiction and disbelief other strategies for Gaslighting include Begging the Question, and the use of Strawman arguments; refuting a reframed argument *different from the one actually under discussion* while not recognizing or acknowledging the distinction. Through the exercise of overwhelming a subject with countless contradicting premises and subjective terms a game of Pigeon Chess is played to deter criticism and break down a person's defences, until they no longer trust their own feelings, and rely solely on an outside source for direction. This is clearly demonstrated in the Maga cult, and is repeated in the convoluted dogma and magical thinking of Evangelism, New Age Spirituality, Ancient Aliens, and Graham Hancock. Always alluding to a secret to be revealed, but always in vague nebulous terms and undefined benefits of a far away place with no means to verify one way or the other. "Trust me bro" Effectively they all play the same role of an Enlightened Guru with deep understanding of life matters who can solve all your problems. It's likely no coincidence Reagan emptied the mental health services in the US, over half of those in Jail and living on the streets have undiagnosed ADHD. Auyawasca and Psychotropics are also a staple in brainwashing, as is telling the target they've been brainwashed and that the Guru has the cure, right wing propaganda uses this language heavily by flipping the script and arguing they are the victims, that they're the ones being silenced and cancelled, that they oppose child abuse while also defending it, that the deep State is out to get them, when they're the Deep State and always have been. Aleister Crowley was a big advocate of using Psychotropics to brainwash, just like the CIA, Opus Dei and MK Ultra. Brand and Trump both use hand waving and holding them outspread in a "settle" gesture called pacing. They can also stare at an opponent, "asserting dominance" to put the target on the back foot and unsure how to respond. Peterson does this a lot, along with rapid fire speech, and using an insulting or demanding tone. By using these tactics as well as loaded language (Newspeak) and inference (plausible deniability) only to move the goalposts and reframe when challenged. Trump's Mentor Roy Cohn admitted to using kids to blackmail politicians on behalf of israel, and trained under him alongside Epstein and Roger Stone. Trump's Jesuit mentor was Norman Vincent Peale, a 33rd degree Master Freemason. He was born June 14 during a Super Wolf Blood Moon to Fred Christ and Mary McKleod, he keeps a book of Hitler's speeches called _My New Order_ and uses it verbatim at his rallies. The Von Drumph family come from the same place as Hitler, Vienna Bavaria, Capital of the Holy Roman Empire. He paints himself Orange to represent Apollo; the Dawnbringer of Aleister Crowley's Golden Dawn. Jamal Kashoggi's Mossad brother Adnan sold Trump a Superyacht for Russian Roman Abromavich, who was also paying Boris and Farage for Brexit. Most of israel's govt are non religious Russians.

@@TheJester-ct5pi : That is simply not true. I have seen even over my own lifetime how the standard of living follows an inverse correlation with the degree of corporatisation. There is seldom quality in anything anymore; there is no artisanship; there is no variation; there is no choice. We are surrounded by a plethora of junk for which we pay dearly. Societies that shun corporations, and especially those with high degrees of independence, have higher standards of living in most regards, unless of course our only metric is material ownership. But even if your premise were correct, it is obscene to suggest that this somehow compensates for the murder and suffering caused by corporations. Corporations have no moral purpose. They simply shouldn't be allowed to exist.

The non mainstream media like Rogan, the Turks and whatever one people listen to, talk up a bunch of nonsense like gender, woke, Trump, etc.. Plus, the ever shortening attention spans can't focus for 30 minutes, which is the minimum time it takes to really get into an issue.

What I find hard to understand is why anyone has to tell us what is obvious. I'm a 56 year old man with a GED education that has smoked weed on and off since I was 13 years old. I didn't know the fine details of any tools/law's the elite were using but I have understood exactly what they were up to and the results of their actions. I've listened to I was a burnt out crazy pothead since I was a teenager by my highly educated family and associates. Some might think this is funny there's nothing funny about hundreds of millions human beings allowing 1% of the people to steal the world from the 99% . Just keep on obeying authority and don't question your betters. Don't be shocked when you find out this 1% are members of the 33% degree of masonic order of Mason's .

A company runs the world, assassinates resistors, controls resources, there’s a gigantic wealth inequality and oppression…it’s honestly so realistic. And I now wonder just how much and how far back in the worlds literature/ story telling, how far back will you find companies ruling the world. Also, in that game anyone fighting against it was deemed a terrorist and shown as such in the media and their paramilitary group was always sent after them.

Faith and Marxism ARE antithetical - mutually exclusive in fact. Belief in the supernatural or “spiritual realm” is diametrically opposed with dialectical materialism, the cornerstone of Marxist philosophy. Still, that’s not to say that a “person of faith” cannot be in accord with certain Marxist ideas and principles.There are plenty of capitalist atheists and agnostics (as well as all manner of professed theists, deists, pantheists, animists, spiritualists, witchdoctors, etc.) but atheism is absolutely essential to Marxism.

It is dangerous for corporations to "rule the world" because they are not subject to Constitutions granting personal freedoms and rights. When they lobby and fund politicians, they expect legislation in their favor which generally involves relaxing environmental rules or rules contrary to consumer protection and personal freedoms. Also, there may be rules allowing the reduction of free speech to curtail public outcry and reaction.

I've read all of Chris Hedges' books. He is an amazing author and speaks truth. When I listen and watch the news, I continue to ask myself why journalists do not highlight WHY events happen. For example, there is a current issue in the US and Europe of mass migration of people trying to get into the countries illegally. It is tragic and it is an issue for the countries receiving this flood of people. Yet, never have I heard any MSM journalist state WHY this is happening. If there was more information shared with the general population about WHY people have to leave their respective country (due to all of the issues being discussed in this video), perhaps it could, possibly, begin the change that is needed......

The USA was established as an oligarchy by oligarchs (then they went by the various titles of land “speculators”, that is land thieves, such as George Washington, plantation owners, that is, slavers, such as Thomas Jefferson, and big business financiers, that is bankers, such as Alexander Hamilton). Of course as is the typical practice, the oligarchs coopted the masses of settlers into fighting the crown in their behalf but the oligarchs stood to benefit the most and indeed, the emerging empire that was established concentrated political power in the hands of wealthy landowners who, through the states they controlled, selected the members of senate, the electors for the electoral college which ensured that it was from their ranks that the president emerged, who then appointed the judges to the courts (such judges duly approved by their senate). That system remains largely intact today although it suffered some minor rollbacks (such as the senators having to stand for election by the dirty masses). So no, US Americans did not later on decide to trust billionaires, they have always been led by oligarchs and have assisted such oligarchs in the rape and pillage of the earth.

A lot of strong people were brought down by the pandemic, and now we know we cannot count on them when times get truly tough. Chris is nothing like that. He's real.

Real or not, we need all hands on deck now. More than anything, my point is that these intellectuals can be real and still fall short if they are not willing to take chances -- and take them now. We have to swing for the fences here. Trump is on deck, the economy is going down, and the Unions are at bat. We need all that any and everyone can muster so as to let them become an even bigger disaster.

Thank you, Chris Hedges & Mat Kennard, speaking truth to corporate powers of greed. American history on all sides. Great job, Mr. kennard connected the dots of understanding. Thomas Samuel Kuhn, American historian of science and technology "The Strucure of Scientific of Revolutions" 1966. One of the most influential works of history and philosophy was written in the 20th century. He had a PHD. in physics, and born July 18, 1922, Cincinnati, Ohio - died July 17, 1996. 1. Pre- science 2. Normal Science3. Model Drift. 3. Model Revolution 4. Paradigm change Anomalies (violation of expectation) The model uses itself mostly for paradigm markets economy of democracy, a collection of national goverments and some central coordination like the UN, The World Bank, is no longer solving the worlds top problems. The model was good enough to navigate through the Industrial Revolution, 2 World Wars, the Great Depression, and the Cold War. The model shows no sighs to serve the global sustainability problem because to fill the gap of the silent spring of 1962. This gap is so large and difficult, and this new field to solve is thus not the sustainability problem itself but finding the new paradigm to solve it. EnvironmentalIsm and civilization may not know, but they both are in search of a new paradigm that works. Interesting, I found in discovering him. Three paradigms have to dominate sociological thinking because they are structural functinalism and symbolic interactions. 1. Individual difference 2. Group behavior 3. Organizing behavior 4.Human factors 5. Cognitive Science Five paradigm shifts 1. Educational Equity 2.Fixing Marginalized Families > Eradicating Marginalized Practice 3. Color blindness- self education 4. Learning about other cultures 5. Celebrating diversity - Committing to Equity. Cornel West for president 2024. Free Julian Assange and all political prisoners and whistle blowers bring Snowden home. Who are we? American is in decay with politicians on both sides , media , corporation power and banks. We can and must be better than this. Thank you both again for your knowledge and wisdom.

An extraordinary guest, Chris. You're a great truth teller and humanitarian; thank God we have you. I knew about the horrific acts of United Fruit in Guatemala, El Salvador and corporate power. Still, until I heard the end of this interview, I always hoped that if all of humanity boycotted corporations and protested en masse against inequality and corporate power, TPTB would finally understand. I now realize how naive I was and how short our window of time is. As more private militias are created, we, the people, will have no choice but to surrender all. Many will refuse, thus Revolutionary War 2 is likely.

Ownership is a concept bound to currency and depends on the perception of the people using that currency to accept it. Power can override that ownership with nothing but organization.

Just stop watching mainstream media, and voting for the people they tell you to vote for. It's that simple.

I am truly astonished how Rome managed to thrive as an empire for so many centuries. I don't think we really know how they managed to uphold the ethos that made them great and resist the corruption fueled downfall that inevitably takes hold within a century or two. I suspect that enforcing the republic mindset was at the core of it's longevity. The other thing that seems to promote longevity and cohesion of an empire is when there is a focus on continuing to expand the borders. It seems then that the contrary: contraction and concentration of power brings about it's downfall. The core problem with humanity is this one: Despite thinking we are advanced due to our evolving technology, we are still primitive when it comes to morality and ethics. We allow megalomanic psychopaths to rule. They progressively concentrate power and wealth to themselves alone. The system becomes stratified, static and meritless led by these corrupt rulers. Language itself becomes corrupted to conceal the deprivations of these elites and totalitarian states are crafted. In antiquity merely the behavior of the serfs was controllable using knights and secret police to shake down the peasants. Now modern times have afforded these psychopaths the gift of mass media to not only control the behavior but the thoughts of the serfs. Also, the world has shrunk allowing constant surveillance to root out any hint of resistance like in CCP controlled China. But China is now learning even that is not enough to avoid ruin and collapse of the empire. With all of the wealth grabbed by the elite, the economy dies and with it their wealth ebbs away. With dissent crushed by the elimination of free speech, there is no way to course correct colossal blunders made by the elite. With all hope of reform and rebellion crushed and oppression at historic levels, the youth give up and choose to die by not living and having children. The people die and there is nothing left of their economy and wealth. If they thought they were clever and stashed it overseas, without people and an army it will just get taken by force and they will be left with nothing.

This reminds me of my concern with slavery reparations. I suspect there is enough documentation not only for the land swindles, but of the wealth generated since the 1600's. That wealth is most likely in Fortune 500 companies, Wall Street, London, and Brussels. It would be fair for them to pay the bill. A payroll-like tax not only is pretty unfair, but it would also make race-relations worse than it is already.

These subversive ideologies have infiltrated all unelected agencies (UN/WHO/WEF/IMF), prescribe government policy, university programmes and all levels of school curriculum.
