Dear Gary, pursuant to our email thread,
Edgar Cayce said that when certain inequities occur, uprisings, including riots, “must” happen. I searched for EVERY instance of ‘rebellion’ in his readings and he ALWAYS advises against it except on two occasions when his observations took the same form: ‘Your soul advanced by rebelling against abuse and misuse of the crystal (one example) but it lost ground more when you abused its power yourself’.
“If those in position to give of their means, their wealth, their education, their position, do not take these things into consideration, then there must be that levelling that will come. For unless these are considered, there must eventually become a revolution… things as crime, riots, and every nature of disturbance.”– Edgar Cayce 3976-19
By “inequities” Cayce certainly meant ‘socio-economic’, as has repeated itself throughout history “When the rich get too rich”. That’s certainly afoot again today, as almost always, but I also believe that there are information and empirical knowledge based inequities afoot too that are attracting their own irrevocable karmas.
There are rampant “Deep State” conspiracy theories circulating on the Internet these days but, for what it’s worth, I consider the perpetrators of these informational inequities to be the Majority Intelligence Group and Operation Mockingbird to be the moniker for their control of the 6 enormous homogenous news conglomerates that dictate what is legitimate news and, perhaps more importantly, what isn’t.
I believe this has given karmic birth and rise to the Vesuvian output of lies from FOX News and other far right media as well as seemingly infinite online news alternatives that are aptly, unfortunately, known as a ‘Hall of Mirrors’ for reflecting back every user’s predetermined biases. Worse yet political opinions is now, psychologically and algorithmically, forced upon susceptible users. The US-made Facebook app that identifies a nation’s most radical individuals, and operationalizes them, was launched by Steve Bannon against the U.S. shortly before Trump took office and is still running today.
Truth is a Fruit of the Spirit and is ‘of God’. Perhaps those who can cut through all the media noise best are those who most often honestly align themselves daily with The God’s Honest Truth even when it hurts. A consistent metric of about 40% of the U.S. don’t appear to be able to see the truth at all, it often being obfuscated by FOX news-generated “HATE”. They literally use the word “Hate!” more than any other media program.
To the best of my knowledge Republican gerrymandering was at its height right after Trump took office. The backlash to Trump, however, for the mid-term and presidential elections put Democrats in charge to return to normal what they could of gerrymandered districts. It’s still a serious problem, to be sure, because the Trump diehards in the U.S. constitute 40% of the population and Republican congressmen number more than that, but the problem isn’t as bad as it was in 2016 when so many districts were gerrymandered that many were saying that the Democrats could never win an election again.
The new tactic that Republicans are overtly widely undertaking, is taking over election office positions so that they can make up whatever BS they want for election results at the local level. The Proud Boys, for example, now control the elections office in their regional district. I’m not confident that enough Democrats are aware of this danger to fight hard enough against it during the November midterm elections. I do expect that this will be a determination of the January 6th Committee however.
The Republicans are trying to destroy democracy in the U.S. and it seems likely that it’s because they’re a ripening pimple getting squeezed by the fact that they haven’t won the popular vote in quite a long time. The benefits of The Electoral College, a remaining vestige of slavery, that Republicans enjoy isn’t democratic either. The fact that this makes the U.S. not a true democracy appears to be a powerful facet in its possible destruction.
While the urgency of saving democracy seems to call for all due vehemence against its aggressors the most long-term far-sighted perspective is to look to, cultivate, and maintain within ourselves the Fruits of the Spirit; Patience, Tolerance, and (No one’s favorite) Long-suffering being notable among them. Long-suffering often crossed my mind while Trump was in office.
President Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland seem to be good examples for the rest of us. The Biden administration has, in this past month while he suffered through 2 bouts of Covid, passed more meaningful and positive legislation for the American people than has been passed in many decades. This with a 100% noncompliant partisan Republican opposition. He’s done this by ignoring the drama and patiently and diligently (also Fruits) working for what is good and right.
Merrick Garland too has been endlessly patient with Trump and has been biding his time, even coddling him, to try to get things exactly right in accordance with the rule of law.
With news of the recapture of the Top Secret Compartmentalized Nuclear Intelligence secreted away at Mar-a-lago it looks to me like the evidence is clear. They can’t let him off without potentially making espionage legal. His personal end has arrived.
We just have to be patient with the many spiritually impaired God’s children and continue to set the best possible example for them while hoping that they don’t act up too hatefully as they learn.
How about this coming Saturday as an alternative to our rain-checked BBQ? This summer is rapidly running out of weekends.
Despite having heard from the occasional follower I learned this week that, besides myself, you’re the only one who has subscribed to my Martyan Chronicles blog. I suspect that this is because, in the early days, there was a simple RSS (Really Simple Syndication) button that you could just push to subscribe via email. I don’t even know if a subscription is possible anymore.
In appreciation of this I’m thinking about publishing this email as a blog post titled “Dear Gary, (with the title including catchwords like Trump, Biden, Garland, Espionage etc). Are you OK with that?
Yours,
Marty
