Thanks Jon. Sitting here with cancer at 63 I often feel crazed that I don't have the energy to do what I wish I could. And yet I can always write, even if no one reads it. Or post a podcast. Something. I have to ask myself what I would do if I didn't have cancer, and just go ahead and do it. But you know what? I'm scared, cancer or not. And that's the bottom line. Once fear overwhelms the desire to act or even speak, they've got you. I look at your work and admire the energy and talent you bring to the fight, but most of all it's the absence of fear that strikes me. And I imagine if it were the same for me.

Dear Teresa,

At 63 and in ill health, you have made me feel there is a genuine person out there. I am not claiming to be one of them, however, I can still tell the difference. I agree, Jon is fearless in his articles, he jostles my mind, so I support his work.

Readers, like yourself, make remarks, about fear and the longing to be more, that may not be the tornado unleashed of Jon's, but, it speaks to common people like myself. It may seem small, but, so are significant waves in the deep but can break into an unstoppable tsunami when the conditions are right.

You have made the move to reach out and share your humanity, we will read and recognize ourselves in your words. We move in sympathy, together, the wave begins. Perhaps, this time the eventual tsunami will wash away some of the tyranny and create a system that nurtures the best, rather than, extorts the what the elitists can, from us all.

Thanks for sharing.

Dear browntsunami, What a stunning, beautiful surprise to find. One just never knows who will resonate with what a person might think is an inconsequential thought to anyone but me. That the effect of recognition by a stranger can feel magical and so appreciated... thank you.

What you have shared should never be inconsequential. We may at times not realized that we are in this together, when we are privileged to see our humanity in others like yourself, it can be a moment of unity with your experience, but, more importantly, with experience of all my beloved brothers and sisters, for we are in this together and we are one. If you did not share, I would never have had that realization. For me, that can never be inconsequential. My thanks again for your courage.

Hi Teresa ~ So sorry ! My advice: start watching 'near death experience' videos... which in fact are 'death experiences' . Pam Reynolds, Dr Mary Neal, David Bennet, Joe McMoneagle.... My master's synthesis was on this topic...if you are interested in reading it you can contact me through email at VisitHigherGround.com. The biggest lie they have told is that we are 'wet computers' we are spirits having a human experience. But if science confirmed it they would no longer be able to rule by fear as the fear of death/unknown is their trump card.

Love this!! A perfect clarification of what exactly is our "corrupt culture" for those who might still be oblivious to it...which is why I just forwarded it to my brother and my daughter, hoping the scales might (finally!) fall from their eyes.

Another gem from the great Jon Rappoport. I , unlike certain members of my closest friends, like the head-on approach. The in your face, give no quarter ,tear their head off and shit down their neck approach. I can understand that kind of fight. That kind of war makes sense to me. It's honest. Fuck -um. I don't think their culture has any merit-none. that's why I want to defeat it, tear it from limb to limb, level the bloody place where it can never come back. Yes. That's a war I can sink my teeth into and Jon is our General. Keep up the good work Jon.

AGREE! I'm 66 from the wrong side of the MA tracks...mill town in Western MA. Our culture was 'in your face' usually with wit if you were 1) an ass/bragger/blowhard 2) a liar 3) threatening 4) dangerous 5) stupid 6) sex hound. And because people knew that they would be called out immediately and publicly the vast majority managed to behave...surprise! Life was better before the hippies came in with their long hugs /'deep' eye contact and insistence on the 'safe containers' where no one should speak any words that might offended another. The boomers were generally infiltrated to be the leaders of what is now, a generation or two later and out of control Marxists nightmare which requires, as Jon so eloquently points out, a revival of the 'IN YOUR FACE' culture.

I hope I'm as feisty as you at 84!

Keep fighting the evil Jon with our sincerest gratitude. The light you shine in these dark corners is vital for our culture. We need you to keep speaking truth.

John 3:20

Everyone who does evil hates the light [truth in Christ], and will not come into the light [truth in Christ] for fear that their deeds will be exposed.

Both barrels! Thanks for the kick-start to my day! The front line is taking on the inflation and rent seeking whores selling out our freedom on Wall Street. They got their's and shit rolls down hill. Carlin nailed it when he said it's a big club, and you ain't in it! Theperfectcollateral.com destroys the rehypothecation apparatus but requires thinking about things people have outsourced for far too long. They print what they want and steal your labor to cover the theft. That simple! Thanks JR!

Yes education - to train animals

Before we de construct we I believe must first have the skills, capacity, ability and most importantly the will to re construct otherwise we leave people conflicted and in a worse place.

Jon you do this with inteligence, humour and all of the above, thank you.

I have personally lost 21 pounds by reading Jon’s fabulous, sometimes hilarious articles, which have consistently removed me from the high-calorie cheese globs…..

thank you - for another moment of bliss and satisfaction (I'm not alone, I'm not crazy, I'm not bad, not 'not-from-this-planet' ...). It's infinitely good, encouraging and comforting, empowering and vitalising that you are there. Shine on

in gratitude, Bartleby

I have printed out many of your commentaries from the past 2 years. Thank you for helping me think better. A voice of common sense.

I'm glad I found you before I was banned from Twitter. An actual writer with imagination. A rare breed these days. A kindred spirit.

Dare I say you are medling with the primal forces of creation. Keep weilding! You've got hold the HAMMER OF THE GODS my friend, not many dare, not many can even lift it! Let the renovation begin. "Since my friend you have revealed your deepest fear I sentence you to be exposed before you're peers! Tear down the wall!"..." And when they've given you their all some stagger and fall, after all its not easy ... Banging your heart against some poor mad buggers wall." The Wall by Pink Floyd
