re: Do you believe there is a secret cabal controlling the world/America?

Yes.



Though I don’t actually believe there is Star Chamber meeting in a secret underground bunker hammering out directives for world domination. What we have instead is a chaotic melange of often competing factions whose divergent goals are often congruent.

These various factions all depend upon an all-powerful State security apparatus to achieve their agenda. Political happenstance and accidents of history plays just as important a role as overt conspiracies.

Indeed, the collectivist agenda isn’t all — or even primarily — black-ops, above-top-secret, Davos/Bilderberg grand conspiracies — though certainly such conspiracies exist (more on that below.) Instead, it is played out in the mundane scenario of our nation’s ever expanding debt, day after day, month after month, year after year, decade after decade in the routine functions of Congress.

The President says Congress must increase the budget of some already bloated program by $500 Billion. Both “sides” dig-in and orchestrate a bitter budget battle that is ready made for the cable TV news programs.

After this contentious battle is waged, one side “prevails” and the increase is “only” $250 Billion. Yet all factions are happy and the Republic is one step closer to the fiscal precipice.

It is predictable, mundane and utterly boring to see it play out repeatedly on the nightly news. Yet mundane though it may be, it is a conspiracy all the same: what we are ultimately facing is a death by a Trillion paper-cuts ($20 Trillion if you actually believe the “official” debt load.)

Every corridor of true power in Washington serves this grander conspiracy of perpetuating the print-on-demand monetary system that fuels the Warfare/Welfare State. Yet at some point, gravity is going to take over and it is not going to be a soft landing.

The series of “crises” (i.e. conspiracies) that have been inflicted upon us this past year (pandemics, riots, gas shortages, etc...) are in anticipation of the coming command economy that will be necessary after the inevitable crash. Indeed, the “Great Reset” itself is a dress rehearsal for this eventuality:

No. I just think a bunch of narcissists with power are working independently to force people to bow to their beliefs and ideologies.

Soros.. sure he probably has a lot of connections, but I don't think he's in a cabal. I just think he's a rich bitch who believes he knows better than everyone else..so he throws billions of dollars around in an effort to buy societal changes.

Corrupt people in our permanent government.. I believe they support each other, not because they are in a cabal, but because they are independently greedy and narcissists who truly believe they know what's best for people. If one of them gets caught up in shite, then others may also get caught up in shite.. so it's best to just give each other absolute protection.

hey have been in power since the 90s I think. Trump was just a puppet diversion to calm us down

I disagree. I think Trump wasn't supposed to happen. They made damn sure it didn't happen again.

Geez.... It is sad that this is what a good portion of the conservative base has come to.

his is why religion is the number one thing systems of oppression will go after first, because religion typically represents a way out of the control mechanisms.

This was the problem communist/Marxists in Western Europe saw back in the late 1800/early 1900s. They found that the class warfare argument did not work like they expected. Most people were religious and placed a higher emphasis on faith and family instead of material goods and position in life.
The communist decided to address these highly regarded and long held institutions by introducing and promoting alternative lifestyles. Homosexuality, trans genderism and there are many definitions of a "family". They also orchestrated a direct attack on Christianity and specifically, Judeo Christianism.
The Frankfurt School in Berlin was established to promote these ideas back in the 1900s. Later after the Third Reich rose to power, many of the Marxists members of the Frankfurt School fled to the USSR while many other fled to the U.S.
Those fleeing to the U.S. set up residence in New York and many became professors at Ivy League institutions.
Clearly we see the fruits of their works in present day America.

Not to your liking? Then we must be on the right track.

It's sad how whack-a-doo this board is becoming.

The world is very complicated. You want to create a "secret cabal that controls the world" so that your mind can cope with it. That doesn't make it real.

If they planned or orchestrated these events what makes you think they're not already in power?

---

Certainly not the fact they literally swindled the American people with a fake election system that put a bumbling dementia patient in the highest office in the world without so much as a whimper of push back.

Yes, that is true, plenty of clues but, how to connect the dots when your too busy paying the bills, or blaming Liberals/Conservatives/Republicans/Demoncrats/Blacks, Jews, muslims.., etc.

These cabal fellas are some crafty devils.

Do you not thinks some stuff is too ridiculous to even look at?
