The People's Revolution
This is clearly one for the ages. There is plenty of time to analyze the dynamics but let’s observe the undeniable. This was the fulfillment of a class war: the overlords vs. everyone.
BY BROWNSTONE INSTITUTE
It was the landslide that very few expected and the ruling class dreaded the most.
Trump’s last term in office was cut short by the revenge of the administrative state that imposed itself on American rights and liberties at a reach and scale never seen before. All those policies were made worse by the successor regime, complete with mandatory masking and dangerous shots.
The results were catastrophic for everyone but the elites. In a remarkable turnabout, the coup that wrecked Trump's last term has mutated over four years into the closest thing an industrialized democracy will ever see to a revolution. It was the ultimate repudiation of the despotism to which many people in the world have been subjected.
This is clearly one for the ages. There is plenty of time to analyze the dynamics but let’s observe the undeniable. This was the fulfillment of a class war: the overlords vs. everyone. The Covid years – followed by the endless wars against health, wealth, and freedom itself – were conducted by a tiny elite of government and corporate millenarians cheered on by a credentialed class of experts who had never faced any real-world test.
They have been found out.
The machine has been symbolically toppled in one beautiful plebiscite. The signs of this coming were showing up all over the world but events in the US have echoed the world over. It could be a new dawn for freedom and human dignity but it is too early yet to say for sure. Fulfilling the promise of the revolution is going to take unrelenting work and focus. Meanwhile, there is still vast work to do in unearthing the depredations of the last several years.
A new generation of writers, thinkers, and intellectual leaders is being built on the ashes of the old. No question that Brownstone Institute has played a large role in this, as even our trolls freely admit. And there’s no question that Brownstone will continue to shepherd the necessary rebuilding. As our name suggests, the building material must be accessible, malleable, and durable.
There’s never been a better time to support our work. Our focus is support for dissident intellectuals who need a bridge to a better and more influential future. We also host many public and private events, and support teams of researchers on particular topics from censorship and pandemic planning to monetary reform.
If you came to our conference and gala in Pittsburgh, you know what a spectacular event it was for everyone. If you could not make it or just want to relive the magic, you can go to our page that hosts images and videos.
The next West Hartford supper club is Wednesday, November 20. We’ll hear from a brilliant medical historian and current homeopath, Sarah Thompson, whose knowledge of the work of Harris Coulter is unmatched. Someday we’ll tell you the remarkable story of how we manage to get these once-banned books into print. It’s been quite the ordeal.
Here is some content since our last email.
Nixon Versus McGovern 2.0? Not so Fast! By Steven Kritz. In 2024, Trump won all seven battleground states by an average of just over 2%, and his overall popular vote percentage will be approximately 10% lower than Nixon. Nixon’s margin of victory was an order of magnitude greater than Trump’s.
Global Health Reform Must Go Far Beyond WHO By David Bell. We need an exit strategy from external dependency in order to achieve health independence. This is what sustainability and equity mean, words of which global health profiteers are so fond. These changes need to be sector-wide, not just the WHO.
Australia’s Covid Inquiry Report Is Not Fit for Purpose By Ramesh Thakur. The report’s solution to the overreach and abuse of power by authorities during Covid is to create even more bureaucratic structures with more powers and resources, including an Australian Centre for Disease Control.
The Illusion of Expertise By Josh Stylman. Our challenge isn’t merely to reject flawed expertise but to cultivate genuine wisdom. The future depends on those who can navigate beyond the limits of institutional thinking, blending discernment, humility, and courage.
Why Roger Ver Deserves a Presidential Pardon By Aaron Day. We call on the US government to end the unjust prosecution of Roger Ver, a pioneer in cryptocurrency and advocate for economic freedom. This is about protecting innovation, defending liberty, and ensuring that following legal advice doesn’t become a crime.
The CDC Planned Quarantine Camps Nationwide By Jeffrey Tucker. In four years of research, and encountering truly shocking documents and evidence of what happened in the Covid years, this one certainly ranks up at the top of the list of totalitarian schemes for pathogenic control prior to vaccination.
Fascist Is as Fascist Does By Eric Hussey. If we extrapolate Forrest Gump’s adage that stupid is as stupid does, from stupidity to fascist is as fascist does, we can see parallels to fascism in actions that were taken by the governor of the State of Washington.
Facebook Censors Gone Wild By James Bovard. If it is no longer safe to mention the word “dictator” regarding presidential candidates, the First Amendment will be worth less than the most noxious campaign promise. But at least Facebook will always have plenty of cute kitty photos.
FDA Knows That China and India Drug Quality Is Poor, But Independently Collects and Tests Only about 0.001% By David Gortler. Trusting for-profit, overseas manufacturers to police themselves on quality control via self-selected “mailed-in” sampling doesn’t work. Patients filling prescriptions hoping to treat a critical medical condition could instead be adversely affected with impure products stealthily making them even sicker.
Three Modes of Mike Benz By Daniel Klein. Benz is from the Blob and teaches about the Blob, as well as the whole alliance, stateside and transnationally, that the Blob is at the center of. He will be a main source of insight in the coming months.
Complex Systems and the U.S. Election By Bert Olivier. In total, all these mutually connected subsets of elements and living entities comprise the planetary ecosystem, which is an overarching, complex system. What does this have to do with Donald Trump as candidate in the imminent US presidential election?
Loss of the Medical Mezoi and Medical Citizenship By Russ Gonnering. The Medical Mezoi evaporated almost overnight. Hospital staff were no longer independent. There were two classes of physicians: the few members of the elite nobility who were part of the networks and the serfs who did what they were told.
Censorship and the Criminalization of Election Integrity By Brownstone Institute. No political actor has been more influential in overturning election integrity efforts than Marc Elias. He led the crusade to overturn the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s 2022 ruling in Teigen v. Wisconsin Elections Commission, which banned “drop boxes” in the state.
Washington Post Subscribers Throw Temper Tantrum By Bill Rice. At least 200,000 subscribers of the nation’s second-most-important newspaper threw a temper tantrum because the paper’s Establishment stenographers would not endorse Harris. If this doesn’t provide a “tell” about the political views of large swaths of the country, nothing will.
