The collapse of the South Vietnamese government rendered moot the sacrifice of some 58,000 American lives.

El neoliberalismo es la ideología dominante de nuestro tiempo. Nos moldea de innumerables maneras pero a la mayoría de nosotros nos cuesta articular lo que es. Peor aún, nos han persuadido a aceptar este credo extremo como una especie de ley natural. En ‘La doctrina invisible’, el periodista George Monbiot y el cineasta Peter Hutchison destruyen este mito. Muestran cómo una filosofía marginal de la década de 1930 –la defensa de la competencia como rasgo definitorio de la humanidad– fue secuestrada sistemáticamente por un grupo de elites ricas decididas a proteger sus fortunas y su poder.

So they launched “The Invisible Men,” a documentary telling the stories of amazing black men at Harvard University who had overcome structural barriers and achieved success. Today, Ian and Nique have ...

Symbols have been used by secret societies since time immemorial; their power is used to control minds as they seek to transcend established laws and governments. The Illuminati is perhaps the largest secret organization in the world, and while many have yet to come to terms with the reality that they are introducing a New World Order, those who have embraced the truth have made positive steps to inform others of what could mark the start of yet another dark age.

Everything from news and politics to the latest plagues and false flags. We might not be able to stop the new world order but we can talk about what we are up against.
