Absolutely brilliant. A voice able to hold multiple perspectives is so critical now. This truly is our biggest existential threat and our biggest opportunity to create the world we want to live in together.

Hi Daniel, I appreciate your analysis and sharing of these issues. I differ in that is possible to take a more neutral view of Gates. Obscenely powerful, conventional in view of technology and markets. I'm not sure there's megalomania there just not coherent in his approach. He is the outcome of 80s logic the way Bezos is the outcome of the logic of the 2010s.

When reflecting personally on the response to the current time, I become very local. If people and natural systems are behind by the rich and powerful how can I be of use in healing, facilitating their uprising. Alongside that is the desire to join with others in such work and hold a sense of collective becoming worldwide. I do think the time of counterculture is over. It is time to stop fixating in what must be dismantled and build the communities and systems that render the current one obsolete. The deepest argument we can make is to build an alternative, threaded with love and justice, integrity emanating from its heart.

When enough of such institutions, businesses, community works are enacted, the old will empty itself out.

Thanks for writing. It got me thinking.

Your best article so far, Daniel. Thanks for this. Here I am in 2021 Dec. reading this, and while Trump is no longer a part of the narrative, much of this commentary holds true and bears repeating. The propaganda machines that maintain the narrative's of the powerful continue humming along at full speed, repeating the same message--on every channel. It's worth doing the same with content like this. I hope you'll reshare this one with your audience (FB, Telegram) again soon.

I agree wholeheartedly in a new system that regenerates our planets ecosystems while combining our wisdom traditions and science and I believe Dr. Steven Greer is on to something. He champions the disclosure of new energy technology that has been lost or stolen from us in the last century. I believe this alternative has hope for the future if we can access this.

Daniel, I appreciate your effort to achieve an open mind that relies on critical thinking and not critical theory.

In that spirit, you owe it to yourself and your audience to educate yourself about the real causes of Polio, given that you view it as a monumental success of the 20th century. This extremely well researched and documented article will give you everything you need to free your mind from the crazy harm brought about by Big pHarma and all the other big industries, but especially the chemical companies.

If you don't think that the pHarmaceutical companies have a terrifying track record of harming people, then here's a summary done by a law firm of what Pfizer (yes the ones with a leading mRNA vaccine ready to be unleashed on all of us).

If you want to learn what the makers of mRNA vaccines think about their vaccines and you want to know how they "work", this is a dispassionate and detailed explanation based completely in actual science.

Also, your second youtube link to about a "scary video of uncertain provenance" has been censored by YouTube. It is truly shocking and disappointing that in just 5 to 10 year period liberals have gone from defending free speech to calling for its destruction. That is one big reason I am not a liberal by today's insane standards.

Thanks for such a thought-provoking work, Mr Pinchbeck.

My question, as the layman just starting to dip my toes into the topics about which you write, where can I start? I coincidentally found it awful the other day when speaking with my wife, who said “we need to contribute to such and such campaign.” There has to be more we can do and the palpable, society-wide stress we are all experiencing, as you say, has to give.

Not to mention that, as a parent of a 10 year old with asthma and ASD, your pontifications on vaccines struck a huge chord.

Thanks again for getting this everyman’s wheels turning, Sir!

Daniel, I just now discovered your work linked by a friend on Facebook. You have been deeply exploring the threads that I have felt for a long time. I just downloaded your book as I believe you are doing, and have been doing, the work of articulating the story of tomorrow. I.e. the story that many of us have an inkling or even visions of - that we are now starting to realize is our collective awakening. This is the ethos you speak that will replace (or bring the dimension of wholeness to) the singularity, and every other metaphysical aspect. I very much look forward to exploring this with you (even if just from your writing)
