Killing Us Softly With Even More Lies


I want people to understand that I am not kidding when I say that "they" are killing us. They are not only trying with full intent and depraved indifference to kill us, they are killing us. Killing us softly.

Precisely who "they" are could easily be determined by anyone with enough interest to do the research. It's all public record, albeit a bit of a tangle that requires some detective work but it can probably be pinpointed by combing through the investor data areas of companies that sell stock. Investors, you see, apparently count just a little bit more than the rest of us schmucks because they have money to give to rich people in larger chunks than working class folk do. Just going up to corporate front doors and knocking to ask who the top dog is with legal responsibility for attempted murder of the general public will get you nowhere. Responsibility is something "they" avoid like the plague and the last thing "they" want is for us everyday slobs to know who "they" are.

Whoever "they" are, "they" are depraved murdering scum and people need to fricken understand this. Today I'm bringing up just one example out of tens of thousands that are every bit as shocking and revolting as this one. Found on my grocer's shelf today while pointlessly searching for a non poisonous form of chicken stock, which doesn't exist anymore by the way, I found this and was appalled. Again. About everything on the average grocer's shelves appalls me but this one can be dispassionately explained and it should get the point across.

Besides the obvious fact that sugar is not the main ingredient in chicken broth, everything about this "food product" equates to a knowing intent to deceive consumers and knowingly cause them harm. As usual, knowing that people want to eat healthy foods, they have pinpointed a well expressed desire of consumers to not have toxic sodium levels in their foods. Pretending to respect consumer demands they in fact make the standard end runs around consumer demands for healthy foods and give them something just as unhealthy as the products already rejected as unsatisfactory for human consumption by consumers. This IS standard practice. You must understand that. It is NOT unusual, it is the norm.

As all bouillon and stock products on grocer's shelves are so high in refined sodium as to be toxic and damaging to the heart, someone looking only at product claims, believing in good faith that their government would not allow such insidious, illegal lying to take place, will purchase this bouillon product and never suspect it was just as toxic as the rest of the over salted toxic product choices they are presented with.

The second ingredient is the magic ingredient that makes this "bouillon" salt free: Potassium Chloride. Let's take a look at the Wikipedia entry for Potassium Chloride.
....
Potassium chloride
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The chemical compound potassium chloride (KCl) is a metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine. In its pure state it is odorless. It has a white or colorless vitreous crystal, with a crystal structure that cleaves easily in three directions. Potassium chloride crystals are face-centered cubic. Potassium chloride is occasionally known as "muriate of potash," particularly when used as a fertilizer. Potash varies in color from pink or red to white depending on the mining and recovery process used. White potash, sometimes referred to as soluble potash, is usually higher in analysis and is used primarily for making liquid starter fertilizers. KCl is used in medicine, scientific applications, food processing and in judicial execution through lethal injection. It occurs naturally as the mineral sylvite and in combination with sodium chloride as sylvinite.
....

Do you suppose anyone would buy this supposed "food" knowing it is used for fertilizer? Or better yet, that it is the chemical used to execute prisoners on death row via lethal injection?

Could you explain to me please what this chemical is doing in food? It is not food. No one can pretend that it's not injurious to human health, it's specifically used to kill people. Would you want a little potassium chloride added to every meal you eat? Probably not. I also doubt that the manufacturer of this "product" could be forced to eat it. But he will manufacture it and sell it to you to eat and to feed to your children. How does that make you feel? Who do you know with half a brain that would consider this to be safe? Well your FDA says it is. They think it's fine for you to eat this toxic waste. They really love you. Obviously.

The other claims made on this product are also deceitful by intent. By simply calling MSG by another name, it can be legally added to foods in large quantities and not be considered illegal and fraudulent by law. What precisely are "flavorings"? Considering what big Ag corporations consider "food", I for one would not extend the benefit of the doubt on that.

You don't want MSG in your food and they know that. There is no confusion about people rejecting the drug known as MSG in their foods. People don't want to be drugged every time they eat. Again, anyone with half a brain would not only know that but would never even consider drugging anyone's food. But major food processors drug everyone's food, every day of the year. This is the reality of the American diet. It is not because people are out of control that they are fat. MSG directly causes obesity. That's a well established fact that food manufacturers would prefer you not be informed about. The obesity explosion in the USA, Britain, Australia and other westernized countries whose diets consist primarily of processed "foods" is a new phenomenon that just happens to coincide with the complete saturation of MSG into practically every processed food on grocer's shelves today. MSG is even sprayed on FRESH PRODUCE. Why?

I for one think people deserve to be told that they are destroying brain cells and creating body fat with every fat free, low cal, sugar free bite of food they eat. But your government disagrees with that. They don't think people need to know they are being poisoned and having their health undermined by people with a profit motive. They see people's right to defend themselves against predatory capitalism and depraved indifference to human health as non existent. The right belongs to poisoners to poison others for profit, not to victims to defend their lives. This is the reality that guides your country today and sets the precedents that allow all manner of human abuse to occur under the protection and full sanction of the law.

Keeping that in mind, how will Americans feel when they are finally told that they are consuming genetically manipulated, unnatural, proven unsafe foods every day of their lives and have been for well over a decade? How will they feel when they find out that the fight to force the government to inform Americans about GMO's in their food was LOST. That the government strongly disagrees that Americans have the right to know what they are eating? I don't think people will be too happy. Unfortunately this will go on indefinitely and a great many people will never know. I think it's safe to say that people are dying from what they eat and that the government is fine with that. I am not fine with that.

People who go to grocery stores expect to find food there. They obviously expect the food there to be edible for humans and be non toxic and non poisonous. They expect the food they buy to be safe and nutritious. They expect that the most they'll need to worry about is proper nutrition, not whether or not something is deadly.

Our government knows this and every single major food manufacturer knows this perfectly well. Unfortunately neither of these groups gives a damn about that. I wouldn't have half the problem I have with this situation IF the government and the "food" manufacturing corporations would just tell the damned truth about it. If they would just come out and announce that people are on their own and that eating what they buy in grocery stores is risky business with overwhelming negative health impacts for their whole family and that they will have to bear the ultimate responsibility for purchasing and eating so called food products, then at least people would have a fighting chance.

But they don't have that. Indeed, rattlesnakes are more honest and ethical than food corporations or our own despicable excuse for government officials and supposed representatives of the people. Rattlesnakes will give you fair warning before they strike. Their intent is not to hurt or kill out of pleasure. When intruders by accident or choice draw too near too quickly, rattlesnakes shake their rattles to warn those intruders to stay away, or else. Most people appreciate the warning and are all too happy to retrace their steps out of there. If only big Ag corporations and government officials could be half as decent as rattlesnakes. But they're not.

Our elected officials and for profit commodification pushers are the most indecent lumps of flesh on the planet. They are self absorbed, self excusing mass murderers. Yes they are, I'm tired of people tip toeing around this flat truth. We are being drugged to death with chemicals and artificial ingredients made in huge laboratories and chemical plants by the ton, which are added to everything we eat and drink. It nauseates me to needing to vomit when I think of how many children in this country right now, today, have never once in their lives eaten a single piece of "food" that is actual food. Real, unadulterated, chemical free, truly fresh, unprocessed, unpoisoned, literally organic, honest to goodness, simple, as created by nature, food. Is this not an obscenity that exceeds comprehension?

Is simple, real food not the first basic need of every human being? Yes it is. It is an absolute requirement. It is a birthright. It is what this planet provides every living thing. Free of pesticides, free of poisons, free of toxins, free of artificial colors, free of artificially created chemicals that are neither food nor edible in any sense of the word. And just for the record, it is all also free of charge. Just natural, wholesome, fresh, nutritious food. How can it be that entire generations of Americans have never even encountered any such thing?

How can it be that our medical establishment and so called government can be so disingenuous as to ignore the basic fact that all of us are forced to endure living life with bodies that are chemical saturated? How can any "expert" in good conscience even pretend that people have any chance of being healthy when they are saturated with known toxic and deadly chemicals every time they eat or drink or bring something they buy into their homes? New born babies are already saturated with upwards of 300 chemicals. Understand this, they are born chemically poisoned. Why? Because Monsanto deserves to make money poisoning the planet? Do they deserve wealth and prosperity for poisoning the planet to death? Is that something they get to feel good about? Is that something our government is supposed to hide and protect them for? Because that is what is happening. That is what has been happening for decades. And you and I and every child and adult who eats, drinks and breathes is forced to endure obligatory levels of toxins and pollution of so many kinds that tests cannot even be formulated to figure out what happens when all these things are mixed and consumed by human beings.

Is this not the height of insanity? Yes it is. There is no such thing as an excuse for this. It doesn't exist. Why can't they just provide us with food? Making yourself rich by killing others, harming others, poisoning other people's babies, preventing them from having access to clean healthy food and water, that is a crime. These are crimes against humanity. Who ever thought that crimes against humanity would be the status quo for personal prosperity? Because there it is and that's how the system works and damn it, people need to get the announcement because they can't fathom that anything this insane would ever be allowed to happen.

Instead of standing up and stating in plain English that literally every processed "food" product is stripped of nutritional value, cooked to deplete nutrients, dead, and chemical soaked, they spend billions of dollars to market anti-informative nonsense that has nothing whatsoever to do with the facts of their products. Advertising is a game of lying to undermine the rights of people to be spared irrelevant nonsense and be given nothing more than the pertinent facts about products they're shown on TV. Instead of being informed about a single thing after seeing their 500th McDonalds commercial or cereal or hot dog or frozen dinner commercial they actually walk away with the bizarre idea that they are eating "healthy". That's right. Since that is clearly a filthy lie, how can it be that across the entire nation people share the belief that by simply focusing on "low fat" or "low sodium" or "low carb" or "low calorie" foods, they are making wise decisions that will lead to the good health they desire? How can it be that they don't have a clue that the supposedly healthy foods they regularly eat contain chemicals and nonfood industrial products that would kill them if they ate it straight? How can it be that hundreds of millions of Americans have no idea that aspartame is a pesticide or that corn syrup has serious detrimental health effects and is in practically everything on the grocer's shelf?

How it can be is self evident. These lies that undermine health and harm and kill real people are knowingly told and spread via mass media with absolute intent to make people believe absolute lies and feel trust for the least trustworthy people on earth. It is a conspiracy. It is killing people. Don't talk to me about tin foil hats until you suck down a cup or two of potassium chloride. Then we'll chat. If you're still breathing.

People should be outraged at the insult of the open insertion of toxic chemicals into food, done with the bald faced lie that it is "generally accepted to be safe"? Generally accepted by whom? All the suits on the payroll of those who sell this garbage and those responsible for ensuring its safety? Well when both sides of that consumer protection coin display the corporate faces pushing deadly food onto the public, its no surprise such dishonest nonsense can pass for credible, official assurances of product safety. No wonder at all. It's despicable and shameful and people must be told the truth. There is no one looking out for American consumers. The skyrocketing numbers of deaths and illnesses that do manage to reach the papers are barely the tip of the iceberg. People should never die from eating peanut butter. How does that happen? It never happened before in my entire life and now it's happening with regularity. In recent years people have died from eating salads and from eating hamburgers. This is completely inexcusable. We have the knowledge and expertise and once even had the mechanisms in place to assure food safety and now we don't. Hello new world order. Their message to you, the people, is that you can just fuck off and die. In fact they'd prefer it. That's what they're shooting for.

I just think in the most basic sense of fair play that people deserve to be notified that they are being targeted for extinction by depraved, misguided Luciferian cultists who are raving nuts. I'm not making that up that's who and what they are. Again, they keep it under the radar because they know people would call it correctly and be made aware that they are in danger, and they don't want anyone to be aware of that. This is their weapon, deceit. Smiling in our faces as they stab us in the back. I for one am past sick of it. These people deserve to be hunted down and prevented from having any access to other human beings. They are dangerous zealots with a mission that normal human beings would be ashamed of, and a primary goal of these broken down losers is to take out vast portions of the people on this planet. People need to get that. Yes, it sounds like a comic book plot, I couldn't agree more. It is stupid. But that doesn't seem to stop them or penetrate their obviously addled pates. They are not sane. Should they really be in charge of the world?

I have mentioned before how infuriating and frustrating it is to me to try to find nontoxic edible unadulterated food substances at our local so-called grocery stores. It's to the point that it is nearing impossible to simply prepare a day's worth of food that is not clearly health threatening. We are quickly approaching a time when it will not be possible to find and consume real health giving life giving food. It will not exist. It brings back memories of the movie Soilent Green, not that people will be eating the dead, but how few people will have access to simple, natural food. If this inexcusable state of affairs is not a conspiracy, a truly vicious crime against humanity, I don't know what is.

The Government Would Never Hurt Us


The next time you're talking to somebody about September 11th and you're saying it was an inside job and they're reacting like twits and coming unglued and calling you an anti-American nut case because they know the government would never hurt us; try this. Instead of spouting off lists of anomalies and obvious lies that don't add up, ask them what they ate today.

What did you eat today, Sparky? Visualize it.

"Cereal for breakfast. McDonald's for lunch. And a delivery Pizza for dinner."

Okay. Hold that thought and stay with me now. I'm going to tell you a story.

(This will all make sense later. Really. Okay, here goes.)

This may sound a little silly, but I have often thought how weird it would be if aliens came to earth for a visit and I had the unique opportunity to chat with them, one on one.

No doubt they would have a lot of questions about the way we do things on earth because frankly, the way we do almost everything makes little sense when you look at it without the conditioning and brainwashing that we're all saturated with.

Now I would think that if these alien guys had been observing our planet for any length of time, they'd have run across what we call modern agriculture at some point. And they'd have noticed no doubt with a good deal of confusion and nausea, that we routinely and always, douse all of our growing food plants with copious amounts of deadly poisons. Dangerous toxic poisons, again and again and again all during the growing cycle. And then we eat it.

I bet you they'd have questions about that. I can just imagine the conversation.

"Why do you poison your food?"

"Oh, you don't poison your own food where you come from?"

"No. We don't."

"Well you're no fun at all, are you".

I mean really, what can you say? It's obviously insane. You tell me why we do it and even more, how come we all think of it as perfectly normal? What's normal about poisoning our food? No, we're not brainwashed by our TV sets, don't be ridiculous. Nothing to worry about here, move along please.

But we do poison our food with who knows how many toxic, carcinogenic, dangerous deadly chemicals, and we do not do this for the sake of our health, or for the wholesomeness of our food, or to benefit we the eaters of that food in any way.

No. It is only done to benefit the agricultural corporations and the food growers because if they kill anything and everything that could conceivably affect their crops, from fungus to mold to weird little spots to crawly things, it prevents crop losses which cuts their financial losses thereby very significantly increasing their profits. Hooah.

We eat poison so that corporations may enjoy increased profits. Duh. What better reason could there be?

There could not be any other reason. Obviously. There is no conceivable reason on earth to poison our own food, unless and except that it makes corporations richer. Which is really the only reason we do anything in this world. Isn't it?

Oh and by the way, we also kill the soils during the food growing process, rendering it sterile and unable to support or grow life ever again. Not even microbes. Forget worms. It's death valley for eternity. And we do that because it makes so much sense.

We really do that because it's a handy short cut for food growing corporations that cuts their costs. They can go much faster when they don't have to take care of the soil they're using. They can grow crop after crop after crop if they just destroy the soil and don't have to mess with conditioning it and resting it and rotating it and all that nonsense. Compost schmompost. They make a lot more money this way.

Oh don't worry. When this soil goes toes up they can just move to a new location and start growing right away again. Yeah sure, food growing soil is a very limited resource on this planet making up perhaps a total of 3% of all top soils, but we haven't run out of it yet. Quit worrying you frowny face clown, we probably won't run out of food growing soil in our life time. Even if we do, who cares? Like I said, it all makes perfect sense. They know what they're doing.

But wait now, that's only the beginning. You see, after we harvest those poison saturated crops, we then must process them to strip them of all of their nutritional value, if indeed they have any nutritional value after being force grown out of poison soaked, sterilized, dead soils.

So, to make absolutely sure we get all the nutrients out of it, we must process it. We must run it through a vast series of machines that are often very hot, which is an excellent way to destroy nutrition. We heat it, shred it, cut it up, slap it silly, whatever it takes, running it through many steps which may include long periods of sitting somewhere in extremes of temperature, and being shoveled and pummeled, ground and poured and stomped. We'll do whatever it takes to make our food utterly incapable of sustaining our lives. Then when it is totally dead, having no trace of life force left, and when it is finally without nutrition, we've finally got the makings of real modern day, mass produced food.

Now, you might be surprised to hear this, but none of what you've heard about our food so far really bothers us. What does bother us at this point, is that along the way all of the taste, smell, texture and looks of the food have also been removed. Well, we just can't have that.

No worries though, because we have chemicals to solve all of those problems. Chemicals galore are always added to our food. Often there are more chemicals listed on the labels than food based ingredients. We add chemicals to give it color, chemicals to give it taste, chemicals to give it smell, chemicals to give it texture. We even have chemicals that can leave little grill marks on our processed meat-like edible food products like frozen Salisbury Steaks. Yum yum.

But we can also add chemicals that make it foamy, if we like it foamy, or to keep it dry if it's too damp, or to keep it crispy instead of feeling limp and wiggly. We can create artificial textures of all kinds with chemicals, to make it chewy or crunchy, gooey or flaky, soft or hard. You name it, we have a chemical for it. We can make anything taste like anything. See? It looks like a cookie but it tastes like a chocolate marshmallow kiwi. How cool is that? And it's all done with lovely laboratory chemicals. This is what we like to call "better living".

But wait, that's not all. We also add fungicides and pesticides, and even a little rat poison to keep the rats in the production plants off the conveyor belts and other equipment, because rats are gross. Plus they can get caught in the machinery and run the risk of clogging the equipment. If not, they just get processed along with the food and nobody cares but we don't want to have to take the risk of an equipment shut down, not even for an hour. Time is money you know.

There will more than likely also be bits and pieces of metal from the machines in the food, and little shreds of cardboard or paper, some human or animal hair, maybe a little dandruff, or snot, or wookie parts, who the hell knows what's all going to find it's way into our food? And who cares? All kinds of things are going to end up in there along the way, but it's all right because the FDA makes sure that only so many bug wings and cockroach legs per ounce can be in there, and they are right there on the premises counting bug wings. Yes they are too. They check every ounce for purity. Honest. Oh yes, of course there will also be some dead bugs. Well what do you expect with all that pesticide huh? It works! How cool is that? Oh and machine oil too, not for the food but to keep the machines lubricated. Can't have production stopped you know, it cuts the bottom line and there is no greater sin than that. As you know.

And why do we do all of that? Do we do this because it makes the food healthier and more wholesome for the people who will eat it? Unfortunately, no. Indeed, all of these things have a rather deleterious effect on human health, but hey, them's the breaks. After all, if these things weren't done, sure, the food would be exponentially better for us and improve our health and well being by, geez, who knows how much? It's scary to think about it.

But if we did do it that way, you know, naturally and uncontaminated, fresh and wholesome and real, the corporations would not make all the money they can possibly make by using all of these chemicals and by destroying the food and removing the nutrients and the life energy we need to get from it to sustain our lives and our health. They would go broke. They would definitely lose profits. Like crazy. And we cannot have that under any circumstances. Corporate profits matter more than life and they always have. This is America after all. Profits come before life, that's just a fact and we're damned proud of it.

You'd think that would be enough chemicals but in fact, there's one more step. Preservatives. Yes preservatives, the modern miracle that in and of itself has increased corporate profits like golden rockets to the moon. Gotta love preservatives. Why? Well think about it. Food rots. It rots quickly. It only lasts a few days before it begins to decompose; and baked goods like bread, or fresh dairy products like milk, they're only good for one day.

That doesn't work out very well for the food corporations, it leads to way too much spoilage which leads to losses which leads to lost profits. Which means they'd have to bust their butts to keep bringing fresh foods to the markets for us to buy on a daily basis and why should they have to work that hard when they can just use chemicals to make it seem like the food we're buying is fresh even when it's days, or even weeks, or even months old?

This is much better than in the olden days when the milkman would come to your doorstep every single morning with fresh milk, and fresh cream, and fresh cottage cheese and fresh buttermilk and fresh sour cream and fresh yogurt and fresh eggs and fresh butter and fresh squeezed juices of all kinds. Who would want that when we've got preservatives?

Can you just imagine how their profits have multiplied with this one incredible step? Instead of you and I seeing the rotting flesh of our food, we see nothing at all. We don't see the mold, even when it's there. It still all looks perfectly fresh even though it should be in advanced stages of decomposition after sitting on store shelves for so long. We consumers will never know the difference.

And the supermarkets love it too. Just think of how much old nasty food they'll never have to throw away and take the losses on just because it's inedible. Those days are gone. Now they can keep it on the shelf and sell it instead and that means much higher profits, and a whole lot less work. You can not beat that with a stick! And it's all thanks to chemical preservatives that act just like formaldehyde for our foods.

Some of our foods literally never spoil. They're so chemical soaked that by gosh, you can have a sandwich with year old bread and never even know it. Now that's progress.

Okay. I hear what you're thinking, you're wondering if preservatives and nasty old food might not be that good for human health. Well don't be stupid, of course this is all a death sentence. But it's all right you see, because it's a slow death.

Oh come on. So what if everyone gets sick and weak and dies early? So what if we get diseases that are killing us in droves? So what if we all have malnutrition and have never once eaten a single real, wholesome natural life giving piece of food in our lives? So what? What's your point? All that matters is corporate profit. That's the important thing.

Besides, you can't even tell which of all those processed foods you've eaten is the culprit causing your cancer, or your brain damage, or your obesity, or your dark under eye circles, or your asthma, or your diabetes or your... well you get the point. And since they specifically don't keep track of the health effects and fallout, that's just the same as saying it's perfectly safe. No proof equals no problems. So quit whining and eat up, silly pants.

All that matters is increasing and maximizing corporate profits, and our health should be sacrificed to make those corporate guys richer. We're glad to do that for them. After all, it's only our worthless lives at risk and face it, we aren't worth a shit anyway in this world. We're fine with all this. Really.

And don't ever forget, you know it's all okay because the government says it is, and as you know, the government would never hurt us.

Microwave cheese flavored popcorn anyone? Sparky? No? Maybe later. Now tell me again what you were saying about how the government would never hurt us.

Ready to hear some facts about 9-11 are we? Come sit next to me Sparky, you've got a lot of catching up to do.

(You see, there IS a method to my madness).
