Post John Pilger Articles
I dedicate this Topic for presenting and discussing the work of John Pilger.

Julia Gillard’s rise marks the triumph of machine politics over feminism

In 1963, a senior Australian government official, A.R. Taysom, deliberated on the wisdom of deploying women as trade representatives. "Such an appointee would not stay young and attractive forever [because] a spinster lady can, and very often does, turn into something of a battleaxe with the passing years [whereas] a man usually mellows."

On International Women's Day 2012, such primitive views are worth recalling; but what has happened to modern feminism? Why is it so bereft of its political, indeed socialist roots that any woman who "achieves" within an immoral system is to be admired? Take the rise of Julia Gillard as Australia's first female prime minister, so celebrated by leading feminists such as writer Anne Summers and Germaine Greer. Both are unstinting in their applause of Gillard, the "remarkable woman" who on 27 February saw off a challenge from Kevin Rudd, the former Labor prime minister she deposed in a secretive, essentially macho backroom coup in 2010.

On 3 March, Greer wrote in the Sydney Morning Herald that she "fell in love with" the "matter-of-fact" Gillard long ago. Omitting entirely Gillard's politics, she asked, "What's not to like? That she's a woman, that's what. An unmarried, middle-aged woman in power - any man's and many women's nightmare". [Read more...]

Post Re: John Pilger Articles
John Pilger plays the establishment game expected of him.

He has been given his own brier patch and lots of fertile soil to grow carrots. His gatekeeping is evident in his support
for Assange - a Rothschild agent ... and his alluding to 9/11/2001 as an imaginary conspiracy.

Andy has been apprised of Pilger's gatekeeping on several occasions. Yet he continues to stump for Pilger ... and by extension: Assange, Rothschild, and the power pyramid. Of course, Andy also confuses the issue by promoting articles for and against Assange ... when the truth only promotes one verdict.

You complete the equation, good folks.

Thank you for your input here UncleZook, some might think that I conspiratorially started this topic in an attempt to appraise your new "mission" that you announced here and then again some might think that it's just a "typical response" from the "gatekeeper" that you have so often accused me here of being, what's your thoughts on this UncleZook?

This new "born again" UncleZook has indeed "toned down" his style, but why does he feel the need to remind us that I have been "apprised of Pilger's gatekeeping on several occasions"?

Why is he still claiming that the "UncleZook's truth" is the only truth, clearly illustrated here by his comment "when the truth only promotes one verdict" don't you think it would have been more accurately written with "my truth" in place of his "when the truth"? Well at least he didn't write "humble opinions all round" this time and I see this new "UncleZook Lite" is now only inferring my "gatekeeping" instead of his usual style of "SHOUTING" it!

UncleZook why would would posting articles "for and against Assange" confuse the issue when the topic title is "WikiLeaks - Friend or Foe?"?

Am I also the only one here that noticed the "Icing of innuendo" he gave to his final remark! "You complete the equation, good folks"?



I posted this in my "QUOTES" of the day topic:

Quote:
Trust is a funny thing; you never really know if you can trust someone, until you find out you can't


You Sir, have given me "good reason" for not trusting you!

So instead of saying "why don't you go out side and play GO FUCK YOURSELF" I'm willing to give you the opportunity to try and convince me "otherwise", time & rope are your biggest enemies here UncleZook, not me!

But we shall see!

p.s. UncleZook did you read the article from Pilger I posted?

My sixth sense tells me you're a gatekeeper, Andy. But to keep the peace and unite the peeps, I'm coming down to my five senses. Help yourself to a beer in the fridge.

All in the interest of keeping it honest, Andy. I trust you no more than you trust me. Merely acknowledging our personal differences, is all. Just the beer, Andy. The pizza is for my friends.

The objective evidence promotes only the one truth. I'm merely re-affirming the objective evidence ... I do that whenever anyone drives by and starts making snow-white subjective appraisals of them that have been colored orange by drinking too much carrot juice.

The objective evidence suggests foe, and only foe. After this determination, the debate effectively ceases ... at this point, the marching takes over. You were marching. I was redirecting the good folks back to the objective evidence. Threads can try to go to Tipperary this way but they will never get there ... because there are enough thirsty truthseekers around to pull the march back into the homes and the pubs of Piccadilly.

:jest:

You've been delivered by your own mis-steps, Andy. Take the medicine and move on. You'll never be able to trust me because I seek the truth as a matter of principle and not as a matter of convenience. And I'll never be able to trust you for the reverse reason. Even now, I'll have to count the beers in the chill box after you've donned the keystone coat, the bobby hat, the billycub, the caoutchouc galoshes ... and stepped outside into the Piccadilly pour down. I hope there's only one beer missing ... the one that I donated to the peace cause.

Back to the topic of Pilger. One can speak a 50% mixture of truths and fictions and keep things very confused. But those are the amateur gatekeepers (who know they'll be exposed for it but who do it anyway to keep the truths in camouflage). The professional gatekeepers work to keep themselves in camouflage. To do this, the professionals speak a high octane mixture of upwards of 80% truths ... knowing that the 20% fictions is what puts the butter on the bread. Two forms of gatekeeping. Pilger and Fisk are professionals. Assange is an amateur.

I think I've already expressed an opinion of your talents in this area. So let it be. There's no law that says gatekeepers and truthseekers have to be mortal enemies. The mere recognition of each other is enough to satisfy me.

But now, you've stayed much too long ... I must insist that you have a third - um - second beer.

You didn't even answer "one" of the questions I put to you in this response of yours! I guess it's "Same Shit Different Day" :lol:

p.s. I don't drink "Lite Beer" UncleZook, so thanks, but "No Thanks" and always remember that "you're unique just like everyone else".

Image

p.p.s. I asked UncleZook a total of five questions, none of which he answered!

So your interaction with fellow members here is dependent on what exactly UncleZook? mood? timing? or maybe Luna cycles?

That is highly improbable Zook, according to your actions here.

Your assuming some over polarized victimization here and using an outlandish conviction in "Never Trust Again" scenario. Then in the same Jest you are suggesting that you have wiped the sleight clean with some third hand response of Mea Culpa? You are displaying themes of this contradiction i have been pointing out Zook. You really should go over the material again with this point as your starting point. It could prove useful.
You are by no means proving your earnest here Zook and showing but the opposite, which is your apparently old behavior.

On the one hand, we should be held accountable for our actions. On the other hand, we should be granted some leeway when we attempt to redress ourselves and change for the better. There is a sensitive balance there to be struck.

Zook did call me on his own volition, and we were able to discuss some of the difficulties all are having on the forum. After that call, without any prompting from me, Zook posted his "Mea culpa" thread.

I see UncleZook making an attempt to change a little bit for the better. This is something that I too try to do often. If we beat Zook even harder during this time, he may decide that he made the wrong decision and revert back to his usual and comfortable habits. Wouldn't you, in his place?

I suggest that we try harder to welcome Zook into our forum. If we are wrong to do so, the truth will come out. And if we are right? The truth will still come out, and our unity will be even stronger.

I totally agree with you on these points Chico!

Unfortunately the conclusion that I've draw from UncleZooks response to this new topic differs from yours! All I see here is a change from "UncleZook the Troll" to "UncleZook the Troll Lite" but as I have already stated "Time Will Tell", I sincerely hope I'm wrong about this!

p.s. Could someone here read the article that I posted from Mr Pilger and maybe comment on it so we could try to
actually have an intelligent discussion on it's contents or "god forbid" on the author?

Pilger is pointing out that Feminism has its sovereignty but its topic points are being used in Necrotic ways by Geo politicians and the Military complex.

Imho the true nature of Feminism is hard to tease out because culturally this is a new contemporary idea, as in the Womens movement of the 20th century. Im suggesting that the Idea is being managed, using its maturation points in the societal Narrative nefariously by the psychopaths. Nefariously being, getting politicians elected, getting Legislation passed, swaying Judgement in how Societal tribulations get processed. With an overall agenda of psychological assimilation. Thats a topic in itself.
This Strategy causes an intermeshed dynamic, (Poles of Doublethink), two contradictory points existing as one narrative. Like how can the womens movement be bad when its representative was put in power by the Power Pyramid, sort of thing.
The Hillary Clinton drama is a piece on this chess board here in the US.

Racism and culturalism was used with Obama.
Thats my take at least.

You asked boring questions, Andy. I gave you the answers ... but you have to read between the lines as well as the lines themselves.

Let me make it easy for you. Pilger is a journalistic corpse. You are attempting to resurrect the corpse with knobs and lightning bolts. Alas, your options are limited. You will continue to have a corpse ... or you'll get yourself a Frankenmonster, perhaps a benevolent one that hugs puppies by day and hunts humans by night.

Have another beer.

ps: Crocodile tears from crocodiles are an expectation. To wit, Pilger manipulates human emotions because he appeals to the good nature of empaths while simultaneously submitting to the evil will of psychopaths.
