So true ... this city once had soul, synchronicities, magic ... it's still here, somewhere ... Tessa (& everyone), you would appreciate this 3-minute cartoon movie about cell phone zombies - https://www.facebook.com/PalabraDeRudolfSteiner/posts/442871213251424/ - says "false information. fact-checked by independent fact checkers. It's a freakin' cartoon exaggeration. But, there's nowhere the fact checkers don't try to influence ... Can still see, it just have to click on the "why" it's false. Then you can "choose whether to see it".

Thank you for the article.

I have huge sadness and anger at the attack of the phone zombies EVERYWHERE I go. Even tourists on holiday, newly discovering a country prefer to follow their journeys by phone instead of looking out of the bus / train window!! Children who are ignored ,even out on the streets by parents addicted . I watch them playing trying to get their parents attention to no avail as they are somewhere else entirely. Ditto dogs being walked by phone zombies. Cafes and restaurants ruined by groups of people hunched over their phones. My husband and I continually look around us in nearly every situation WE ARE THE ONLY ONES NOT ON OUR PHONES. ( We don't have smart phones, only tablets ).

It makes me scream inside.

I recently read this article:

(🔗 https://www.honest-broker.com/p/the-state-of-the-culture-2024?r=1v561y&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web 👀)

which I find complementary to the first part of "The Matrix That Eats People". He introduces the reader to the condition known as "anhedonia", which I think you'll find quite reinforcing in your observations... 🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️

Great post. I spent a couple days writing in my head this same article, but Tessa beat me to it, and of course did a much better job. And of course, I don’t agree, totally, because I believe we are both still human staring out from two separate locations at the same zombies created by the same monsters, but may have different understating(s) about who those monsters are and what the solutions may be. This is good and normal. Group thinkers speaking the same nonsense (like the mainstream media talking heads) and their slaves sporting different gang colors beating up slaves (their own and others of the same master program) to conform and behave are all so very abnormal, like Trump & Biden supporters; the “Us vs. Them” nonsense.

I’m certain the problem causing these divisions, the disease and all the wars are NOT the people of China, Russia, Iran, aliens…or electronic machines, AI, smart devises like the computers, laptops and tablets you and I are using to communicate—but have very similar, legitimate complaints about. Like Tessa said, ‘it’s the monsters in control;’ the manipulative, various oligarchy who’ve warped our education, media, definitions of words, history and therefore f🤬d up everything else on earth, such as how technology has evolved, particularly in secret to use against humanity to “unnaturally modify” the human genome and strip out the human soul.

Thank you for this beautiful piece. Coincidentally I recently came across William Blake’s Marriage of Heaven and Hell which delves into the four states of mind that exhibit distinctive attitudes towards the imagination and, therefore, experience the world in very different ways. There is an amazing analysis by Mark Vernon called ‘The Four-Fold Imagination’ on the Aeon platform. Bearing in mind Blake wrote this in the late 1700s, it is a startling insight into our current world mentality. With Ulro being the state of most of the population as you describe above, and Beulah perfectly representing the problems within some of the medical freedom community, where ethics and morality have morphed into selfhood. Would be interested in your insights.

Yes! i have always felt multi dimensional. some of my friends in the new age are saying they are becoming so. well. When i was younger i wanted very much to fit in, so i put it aside, except, i would sneak away sometimes, to rejuvenate myself. to the forest, or a pow wow, or a spring, by a river. it was too hard to pretend tho. One of my original bands was called the mystics. because, i just could not help it. it was all multi dimensional, the music, the dance, all of it. and this was before the computer age.

How I stick my thumb in the eyes of the grotesque billionaire bastards pushing their zombie enslavement agenda and how I embrace being fully human.

Fighting the globalist predator technocrat psychopath megalomaniac TOTAL SLAVERY AGENDA one performance at a time!

Amazing Amy: Eccentric Yoga Entertainer!

As an entertainer, I have been devastated and practically destroyed by the closure of all performance venues and then when they reopened, because MY BODY, MY CHOICE - being made a total untermenschen pariah outcast in NAZI NIGHTMARE LAWLESS 'SHOW ME YOUR PAPERS' JAB CROW APARTHEID/DISCRIMINATION/SEGREGATION HELL NYC WHERE THE MAD/DRUNK WITH POWER TYRANT POLS DOUBLE DOWN ON THEIR ILLEGAL MANDATES. I am trapped here with zero financial resources to leave or do anything else about this 'wish I were dead' endless misery life has become. The tragic irony is that my SPREAD THE YOGA LOVE performances are all about health, miraculously overcoming age (68) and injury to achieve feats of flexibility few can attain at any age. So BIG PHARMA who wants to addict every person on the planet to their toxic products hate people like me who prove that we do not need them if we eat healthy organic food and exercise daily!

https://www.reverbnation.com/artist/amazingamycontortionistuniqueyogadancer

I try and live and embody the creative performing artistic world and life I so fervently want existence to be about.

They can stick their f*cking damned NANO, Digital IDs, AI, jabs and chips up their asses where the sun don't shine!

SCREW THE FEAR FAKERY! NO TRUSTING THE WEF RULING CLASS EVER!

Reiterating for the sake of newbies and to support this clever post.

I have no fear of 'germs' or 'viruses'. One of the best places to go for reality: https://virustruth.net

I try to live without fear! Fear is the mind-killer!

PROPAGANDA CAMPAIGNS BY POWERFUL, WEALTHY CRIMINALS WITH EVIL INTENT CAN CAUSE ALL KINDS OF HAVOC! QUESTION EVERYTHING!

And these, the criminals behind the NAC and all the other schemes will use hypochondria hysteria and 'climate' hysteria to propagandize the gullible 'sheeple' into complying with TOTAL ENSLAVEMENT which is what this is really about!

A vast majority of so-called leaders and Public 'Serpents' around the world have been bribed, blackmailed/coerced into serving the interests of their technocratic New World Ordure parasite masters and not We the People.

GREED is behind every evil assailing us in the world!

The demonic despots of Davos at it again! They are behind everything bad! At it for decades and cronies like The Rothschilds and the Black Nobility and The Khazarian Mafia have been plotting planetary domination for centuries! ALL BECAUSE OF AVARICE!

We the People must try harder to live by The Golden Rule, doing so would solve most problems!

THEY can't get rid of the 'useless eaters' fast enough! Mistakes were not made, it was always malice aforethought.

AUTISM TSUNAMI/SADS/TURBO CANCER/BIZARRE TERMINAL ILLNESSES: More tragic victims of the ruling parasite genocidal enslavement agenda, sacrificed on the altar of psychopathic greed and hatred of humanity.

CLIMATE CHANGE IS AN EVEN WORSE FRAUD THAN THE PLANSCAMDEMIC! SO-CALLED GREEN TECH IS A GIGANTIC SCAM! MINING AND MANUFACTURING 'GREEN' PRODUCTS NEEDS COAL, GAS AND OIL AND MINING RARE MINERALS IS MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY TOXIC AND DESTRUCTIVE THAN LEGACY PRODUCTS. SCREW YOUR DAMNED AGENDA! https://climateviewer.com

Migrant/Entrant invasion - all part of the destructive plot to achieve total slavery!

Apoplectic livid rage hardly describes the intensity of emotions I have had and am having over what these malignant globalists are perpetrating!

There is no noxious crime that the evildoers desiring to lord it over us won't commit to maintain their stranglehold on power. A groundswell critical mass resistance to their murderous enslavement plans is needed urgently!

Creative performing arts, fine arts and literary arts are the best part of being human and the thing the globalist predator technocrat megalomaniac total slavery control freaks most want to destroy.

Too many 'sheeple' are brainwashed to blindly obey authority figures on the media or in daily life in corrupt system ruled by control freak psychopaths who use propaganda lies to enslave their subjects and they are dumbed down to be obedient by 'education' institutions. Fortunately I was raised to question everything. This transcends party lines. We need a system that punishes psychopaths and rewards compassion and sharing, we need a system that actually follows The Constitution in reality.

I DO NOT COMPLY! NEVER HAVE, NEVER WILL!

There is a fate worse than death - I would rather die than be a robotized slave of technocratic overlords! This is my hill to die on!

I have a landline and a wired laptop and a wired monitor screen, all the tech anyone should ever want or need. I never had and refuse to ever have one of those infernal mobile devices that are designed to enslave you.

My loathing of AI and all things NANO and digital knows no bounds!

Kudos to Tessa Lena's heroic efforts and success in the struggle. We the People must always be aware of the existential threats lurking behind this fight!

All manner of lies and propaganda spew forth from the upper echelons in governments worldwide who are completely intertwined with the global criminal ruling class that wants to commit the worst atrocities imaginable and suffer no consequences. And their corruption slithers down the chain of command creating petty tyrants everywhere.

We the People are facing HORRIFYING TECHNOCRATIC PSYCHOPATHY TO DESTROY HUMANITY AND ALL NATURAL LIFE!

It was NEVER about health! The Powers That Should Not Be were ALWAYS about they want you DEAD or a SLAVE! This is a painful truth to accept but we the people must wake up and fight back!

We must never lose sight of the larger picture of the vile malignance we are fighting against.

There is an insidious global ruling class plot to enslave all life on earth behind all the madness and suffering inflicted on We the People.

How to fight back against this TOTAL SLAVERY!

RESIST! DO NOT COMPLY! DITCH THE DAMNED 'SMART' PHONES AND THE DAMNED QR CODES AND GO BACK TO LANDLINES OR FLIP PHONES AND USE CASH AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! INSIST ON CASH! CBDC IS TOTAL SLAVERY!

Other than getting rid of nuclear weapons which I support 100% the rest of the anti-nuclear peace movement and CLIMATE CRISIS propaganda is parroting UN utter GARBAGE, a complete surrender to the ENSLAVEMENT AGENDA by the diabolical despots of Davos - ruling class criminals who lust for total power and control and all of whom should be tried and jailed for life and their malign organizations dismantled: the UN, the WEF, the IMF, the WHO, the BIS, NATO, Blackrock, Vanguard, The Rockefellers, the Rothschilds, The Bilderbergers, the CFR et al.

There is an evil predator globalist technocratic elite agenda of eugenics/depopulation/genocide using bioweapon poison jabs, war, geoengineering, EMF radiation, starvation and economic collapse - THE GREAT RESET/AGENDA 2030/4TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION to get rid of billions of 'useless eaters' and to use nano tech to turn the survivors into ROBOTIZED COMPLIANT SLAVES! WAKE UP AND RESIST! DO NOT COMPLY! These are psychopath megalomaniacs who want to play god by turning all life into digitized metaverse mechanistic synthetic biology to be manipulated by their AI algorithms. A more demonic sickening idea is nearly impossible to imagine!

APPALLED AND HORRIFIED AT INSANE TYRANNICAL PROTOCOLS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH HEALTH AND EVERYTHING TO DO WITH TOTALITARIAN CONTROL! REVERSE THIS NOW!

MAKE THE WORLD AND AMERICA 2019 (comparatively speaking), AND FREE AGAIN!

NO, I AM NOT AFRAID OF THE MORONIC SCARIANT SHMARIANT MONKEYSHINES! WAKE UP ALREADY!

TOTALLY CONDEMN BIDEN AND ALL OTHER POLS WHO HAVE NO POWER TO LAWLESSLY ACT LIKE AN EMPEROR OR DICTATOR AND DECREE JAB CROW 'SHOW ME YOUR PAPERS' FASCIST SEGREGATION/DISCRIMINATION/APARTHEID VIOLATIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION, THE NUREMBERG CODES AND EVERY CIVIL RIGHT IMAGINABLE.

NO GREEN NEW DEALS OR BUILD BACK BETTER FROM THE CRIMINAL TECHNOCRAT TYRANTS KLAUS SCHWAB AND HIS CRONIES FROM THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM.

STOP THE TERRIBLE TYRANNY OF THE TECHNOCRATS GLOBAL AGENDA OF TOTAL SURVEILLANCE AND CONTROL USING THE VIRUS AS EXCUSE AND PROPAGANDA TOOL!

NO MUZZLING STIFLING MASK MANDATES! NO FORCED VACCINES! END TORTUROUS DEVASTATING LOCK DOWNS NOW! I WANT MY LIFE BACK.

The time frame you've marked out as the period of propaganda fits nicely with the post-modern period in the arts. What comes after that? When the gubmint loses control over art and science there will be a period of hyper novelty where a lot of forgotten stuff is piped back into our artistic (and technological) feedback loop. Melodies, like technologies, are forgotten and rediscovered. I love the post-modern things that came out of the 1940s. Surrealism is a vital response to postmodernism. It was necessary to destroy the mimesis of the Romantic period. Meaning that affect in the arts became a codified and easily reproducible pantomime. So the project of postmodernism was to make the audience work again to find meaning. The way I see it the postmodern period is over, and it has shown it's brutalist underpinnings. Art that despises its audience is brutalist (this Reader-Response theory comes from the 1940s, as does every good Hollywood remake). There is rampant brutalism in emerging architecture and Hollywood particularly. I believe this is an aspect of the gubmint (which has complete control over the arts) despising and exploiting the populace. When this pernicious influence is purged away, what comes next will be very interesting.

How many artists and musicians have turned into alt journalists? (and many doctors). I didn't know Mark Crispin Miller was a rock star, and I am still discovering you and Sane Francisco's music videos since yesterday.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rQL2Cxfb0A A few days ago I watched Tessa's interview with Kevin Nathaniel from '21, who plays Kalimba. It was great. Healing music is something I feel the need for. Then I started listening to Tessa songs, and I found out that she's a prolific musician. Do have a link to share from yourself or someone you know?

Also Sane Francisco was the one who embedded the link of that interview. https://micropixie.bandcamp.com/album/dark-sight-of-the-moon. I'm still digging into it myself.

Jiddu Krihnamurti once stated that "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society". That sums it up nicely, I guess.

As for me; I have suffered from recurring depressions all my life. The best way I found to deal with them is to lead a life that is as close to a hunter gatherer lifestyle as possible - which is quite a challenge in my overcrowded hightech Netherlands.

I cycle where possible, take long walks in the woods to reconnect with nature and try to keep my social life limited to positive social interactions. Eat well and sleep as long as my body and mind crave. In short; what was good for us 100,000 years ago is still good for us today.

Spring is coming along which for me means cycling to a lake to sunbathe, swim, share food and interact with people who have the same mindset. I often refer to them as my tribe and a tribe it is, living the life we are meant to lead as humans. Even if it is just for a few hours every couple of days.

Civilization has provided us with a society that (in a best-case scenario) caters to our wants, but does precious little to give us what we actually need. Even the Gilgamesh (2100 BC) warned about this civilization trap.

Beautiful article Tessa. Our internal devotion to something greater than ourselves is hijacked by the machine to serve their whims and dreams. Each individual is part of the whole, the one source, the great mystery of the one and the many, and we incarnated here to go back to source even in this life(realm). Yes, it takes much introspection, meditation, shadow work, but it CAN be done. You mentioned touch and Sight. In a relief made for Ptolemy IV at Edfu, there is a depiction of the Barque of Creation which shows the King standing before it offering MAAT to the God. Within the boat there are Gods representing aspects of creation. Outside of the boat are lesser Gods representing effects such as Hu(God of taste), Saa (Touch) Maa (Sight) and Setem (hearing). These effects in the temporal realm we live in are in harmony when attuned or antennaed to the Divine. Notice the God of Sight is short for MAAT, which one thinks of Ma (mother or Mother Nature). Natural Law that is discoverable on the plane of effects. The temporal modes that we are given by the creator to discover and share in abundance. What will the effects be? This is dependent on the input and within the Matrix it is garbage in, garbage out. Input-processing- output is the modern version of the ancient pedagogy of Grammar-Logic-Rhetoric. The Ancients knew this. It is up to us all who come into this knowledge to de occult or demystify for the masses. We all no matter how low, how decrepit, have that spark within us to re member ourselves. The green language. I loved your article and you are tapped in as you can see and feel the energy (or lack thereof).

Beautifully written, Tessa. Immortality is not a given and physical death is not a cookie cutter experience. Eternal life must be fought for and earned by establishing one's individuation. That is the only way to keep from being recycled (a.k.a. reincarnation) into this material Hell as continuous chow for the Demiurge and his Archons.

So we now have the zombified people trying to escape the world they created along with help from the evil freakified global cabal. They will be enticed to enter a new dystopia created by Big Tech in the form of expensive headsets (how will the zombies afford them with their inflated, worthless $$?), brain chips, and nanobots courtesy of Big Pharma's medical countermeasures. Perhaps Harari's master, Klaus Scab and the WEF will pass out some drugs and alcohol to help the zombies slip into deeper hell. Is this what is left of the Thirteen Colonies' lively experiment of freedom and liberty? There is precious little time for the rest of us to keep from falling into the abyss. Speak out, resist whenever and however you can. Be patriotic, live spiritually. Remember, compliance is acceptance and rebellion is our obligation.

Interesting. But it doesn't match where I live. I live on a beautiful tropical Island. So I don't see people being glued to their phones much. Could it be a mainstream 1st world thing that you're observing ? And what about people who really connect deeply with Yoga, Nei Kung or the Tao, meditation, etc. Something, a practice, that takes them to transcendence ? I wish you a nicely disconnected Bliss filled existence... Breathe... tune into the underverse. It's a whole other 'scene' underneath all the crap... And it's right where you are now... (PS... stay clear of drugs. They tend to obscure your soul-lens. Be pure...)
