They’re all around us. The PSY-OPS.
Almost certainly you’ve heard of the Law of Attraction - draw things to you?
And if that has failed for you, there are lots of other laws, like the Law of Action - take action and do things that pull things to you.
Both of these are part of a big psy-op - THE AMERICAN DREAM PSY-OP, the psy-op that everyone can make it. So if people are living in their cars to have enough to eat, they’re doing something wrong.
(Note: there’s yet another psy-op, the reverse of this one: that everyone who hasn’t made it, especially if non-white, is a victim of an evil system and deserves free everything and reparations.)
Back to the American Dream Psy-Op:
I remember, in the early 1980’s, reading Helen Potrebenko’s Taxi. In the book, her boss, who owns a taxi company with 312 drivers working for him, says: If I can make it, that’s proof that everyone can.
Helen answers back. No. You’ve just proven the opposite. The odds of making it are 312 to 1.
That response has stayed with me.
By the way, I’m all for employers making it - doing well financially - while providing good jobs. It takes a massive amount of work to set up and run a company. Many people don’t want to do this - don’t have the inclination, don’t have the aptitude. I’m just saying that someone’s making it doesn’t mean making it is available to all.
Below is Celia Farber’s powerful story of her awakening to the American Dream Psy-Op. It’s the story of a writer living in ongoing poverty, silent for decades about the falseness of the dream.
By the way, an aside: one reason for the ongoing poverty of many writers and in fact of producers of creative things in general is that readers and viewers are, in huge numbers, psy-op’d into wanting everything for free. So to a huge extent, there’s no fair exchange, no feeding the writer, the thinker, the video-maker.
Now, on to Celia Farber’s powerful account:
What’s been my own experience? Here’s one tiny bit of it. Lots of my poems - or, my term, word pieces - are online on my first site: https://www.elsas-word-story-image-idea-music-emporium.com/words-music.html For several years, the site got around 60,000 page views a month - which is three-quarters of a million page views a year. It felt very good to have the audience. On the other hand, as for earnings - almost nothing. So there might be 3000 views a month of a love poem. Maybe one person might buy the ebook. Very few would even subscribe to get a free love poem a month. That’s been less than satisfying.

"Pursuit of Happiness" and each gets to choose their personal "pursuit" with no guarantees. Van Gogh was never "Great" during his lfetime. I don't Get "Self-Pity". Freedom has no guarantees, Socialism into Communism on the other hand is Guaranteed........ Misery & Slavery.
I have enjoyed being an American less and less as the ProgreSSivism has progreSSed with the Growth of Corps-Gov-Banksters-NWO-Mother WEFers.
Thanks Elsa.
