Alberta West News: November 2021

The world wide COVID pandemic and the increasingly obvious effects of violent weather events are bringing home the power of governments to control people

The emergence of new, ever more virulent variants on the COVID front bring forth ever stronger government counter measures, like effective social isolation for those that refuse to be immunized.

States of emergency are routinely declared by governments in the face of violent weather events, as in the recent flooding event in southern British Columbia.

In tandem with these developments, mega corporations are using their social media platforms to rope people into their folds with the object of exploiting them to the fullest.

They try to create virtual worlds, where people spend most of their waking time being manipulated.

I believe this is a repeat of what has happened, possibly many times in the past; the silent reminders of which are the gigantic stone structures left behind by previous iterations of civilizations.

Web of Life

Op Ed by Helge Nome

This term is well known in the English language and also well understood: The interconnectedness of all things alive.

On an intellectual level, that is, in our European culture.

Emotionally, we are focussed on acquiring territory and power over others, subjugating them to our will and using them to our advantage at their expense.

It is a primitive mindset – that of the Viking.

We have also used that mindset in an attempt to become the masters of Nature herself. And look at the price we are now about to pay for that folly.

A growing web of life consists of ever new relationships forming between organic and inorganic entities, each giving the other some reason to cooperate for mutual benefit: Bees and flowers, fruits and birds, just to name a couple.

In contrast to the “Me, me, me” of Western ‘culture’.

Moving towards an authoritarian society

Op Ed by Helge Nome

Across the world people are demonstrating over the loss of personal liberties in the face on an aggressive enemy called COVID that is continually morphing into a more deadly customer.

A major catastrophe caused by an "aerial river" hitting southern British Columbia, has prompted the government of that province to declare a state of emergency restricting the movement of people.

This is not unlike what happens when nations go to war against each other and people generally accept the more stringent rules.

So, what we can expect if natural (and unnatural) disasters continue to happen is increasingly authoritarian behaviours by government out of a perceived need for same.
