News from Underground is going on hiatus

Friends,

This year has—to say the least—been very hard on all of us; and trying to keep track of all that’s going on has been increasingly hard on me. 

I’ve therefore decided to pull back, temporarily, from NFU, to focus on the restoration of my health. My ongoing battle with chronic Lyme disease requires that I now take a break from this one-man news service, which has become a challenge to maintain (even with your many contributions). 

This isn’t going to be easy for me, as sharing all this dissident material has become second nature; but I feel that I must take a breather, and look forward to continuing this urgent work as soon as I am fully up to it. 

Thank you for your engagement, and special thanks to those of you who have helped me with your generous donations. 

MCM

What “the Resistance” has been saying, loud and clear, about Trump voters

I know people who voted for Trump, and not because they’re racist goons, or goons of any kind. Several whom I know, and no doubt millions more, voted for him out of a well-founded fear that Biden/Harris will push avidly for an outright biofascist order. There are, of course, still others who believe that Trump cares more about the working class than do the Democrats, who make no secret of their loathing for them (i.e., the white ones, seeing the non-whites not as members of the working class but as “people of color”). I also know some Syrian-Americans who voted for Trump, fearing that the Democrats are likelier to ramp up the Western war against Assad.

While I believe those voters have largely got Trump wrong, and that he’s been playing them all along, that’s quite beside the point, which is that the sweeping, venomous portrayal of his whole “base” advanced by “the Resistance” is a hostile fantasy, reflecting vastly worse on the vengeful groupthinkers pushing it than on the (yes) diverse mass of fellow-citizens that they insist it represents. If that’s “the left,” who needs fascists?

Daily Beast editor calls for “humiliation” and “incarceration” of Trump supporters

“The Resistance” has morphed into what the French Resistance was resisting.

Prof. Jonathan Turley:

My greatest concern is how the media remain detached not only from roughly half of the country but from reality. It has decided that it will cater to literally one half of the country and foster openly biased narratives of what is still unfolding in this country. As I previously discussed, the loss is considerable since the public now has a deep and widening distrust for the media. The result is that our media is no longer viewed as a place for citizens to resolve questions over things like contested elections. There is only rage where reason once prevailed.

What is “controlled opposition”? Read this, then look around.

From Mike Champine (on Facebook):

What is controlled opposition? It’s a term that gets thrown around now and then. But most people, even the brightest and smartest minds, don’t seem to actually know what it is or how to spot it, and most seem to fall for it. I fell for it in the past, I admit it. I know others who have also, and had to learn their lesson. 

“The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves.” — That quote is attributed to Lenin. I’m not sure if he really said it. It doesn’t matter to me if he said it, or who said it. Whoever said it, this is exactly what the “elites”, “the establishment”, “the ruling class”, “the powers that be”, “the deep state”, the “shadow government”, “the leaders of the planet”  — whatever you want to call them — this is exactly what they believe, and practice. Controlled opposition is one of their most effective weapons, because it’s a psychological weapon. The establishment uses mind tricks and plays mind games on genuinely good people that are genuinely opposed to their attacks on our civil liberties and their crimes against humanity. 

Put slightly differently, “controlled opposition” is.. opposition.. that is…controlled. Controlled opposition figures do in fact challenge establishment narratives, for example — but only in ways that the establishment allows to some degree. Controlled opposition figures often do tell the truth, but only aspects of the truth that the establishment tolerates. It is truth that does not actually threaten their power, but only appears to. The truths that the establishment wants the masses to ignore or remain ignorant of are omitted or spoken of as half-truths.

The controlled opposition or controlled resistance leader can also lie, but his or her lies will go largely unnoticed by the victims of the establishment’s psychological operation. What will be highlighted is the controlled resistance leader’s “abuse” by the establishment. The abuse may be “staged”, but it may also be very real.

Controlled opposition figures can also be “sacrificed”, so to speak, by their controllers. When the elite has got what they want out of them, they can be kicked to the curb — couped, demoted, fired, jailed, killed, or destroyed in other ways.

Controlled opposition figures tend to be widely known public figures. You will see their names in corporate media, or they will run for political office (and sometimes they will win an election). If a person you respect is criticized by the MSM, you should take the fact that they appeared in MSM in the first place as a red flag. If they truly were a threat to the elite, their names and what they have to say would never be covered in an establishment newspaper or website that could be viewed widely by the public. They would be censored, silenced, blacked out, like many of us on social media are.

We do not need a savior in the form of a politician, a businessman, a journalist, a doctor or any other “expert” to come and save us from the nightmare that our “leaders” have created for us. When we trust popular “heroes” to come and rescue us, yet fail to see the puppet strings that might be attached to them, we will be lured into a trap that the powers that shouldn’t be have set for us. And they will be laughing, because we fell into their trap – without even realizing it. They are masters of manipulation and mind control. Beware and don’t let your guard down.
