Yeah I think the wikileaks thing was leaked on purpose as kind of a sign to the rich that their stocks won't go down in value or taxes won't be raised, like they figure if citibanks runs things for obama he would be alright for them, before that some republican news sources and politicians said Obama was a socialist! Voters heard that and hoped it was true and voted for him.

I find it funny that to this day you can go to the wiki page for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_International_Corporation

Where you see that number 1 Obama worked there and number 2 it was a CIA front.

We are being ruled by a mafia of corrupted men and women controlled by kompromat. That includes corporate, media, and government.

All part of limited hangout since they control the media, the news cycles and the mind gatekeepers - that's why there is never any real resolution:
They focus us on the problem to distract us from the solutions

I feel it reminds me of Winston thinking proles will rise up.

What do you mean? The alternatives I listed in the link are all non-confrontational direct change ideas - no uprising/upheaval involved

you're proposals are vague on purpose, all designed to get people to rise up which isn't happening, not without specific plans. I think you probably know too though that no organizing can be done on the internet.

All the elements I have listed/curated are actual lessons learnt from the past and the present. They are all working / workable pieces - each of them a verifiable success story in their own right.

 
With these put together, every community has the means for full communal self-determination.
Direct Co-opecratic Governance > indirect Corpocratic Governance
= Full spectrum, bottom-down power for usurpation-free Dom

 
My proposal right now is an invitation for people to join in the thought experiment for a consensus-based Co-opecratic Society.

 
It is this paradigm shift that must happen for social transformation.
The real revolution that must take place is in one's own mind, aggregatively.

Everything boils down to this:
Absent a paradigm change,
indirect hierarchical systems perpetuate power concentration indefinitely...
