Old Stones And Hidden Frameworks
Globalists don't like you to see the superstructure
Out-of-town scribblings in the country of Georgia

Kvevri or amphorae are a way of making wine that goes back at least 8,000 years: large clay jars are set into the ground or propped up in cellars.
Centuries have passed since the clay pots in the priestly living quarters saw new wine, and they now hold rainwater from which stray dogs drink.
Society evolves organically, the new complements the old, technology supports tradition.
The attempt to blend old and new, with modern support for ancient stones, is illustrated by the Bagrati cathedral in the Caucasus country of Georgia.
The 11th century cathedral is one of the landmarks of Kutaisi, the country’s third city. Like the Athenian Parthenon it was destroyed by the Turkish Ottomans. In 1692 they brought down cupola, ceiling and walls with cannonballs as they invaded the kingdom of Imereti.
Restoration took place fitfully from the 1950s but the blending of old and new angered the purists at UNESCO. A steel addition to the exterior in the 2010s, providing an elevator to the upper balcony or mezzanine, led to it being stripped of its status as a world heritage site.
From a single visit is not possible to judge the decision of Italian architect Andrea Bruno except that it is obvious that the cathedral had been so utterly destroyed there were not enough stones that could be identified and put back together.
Visitors to Britain’s abbeys have witnessed something similar: stones were pillaged to build the manors and palaces of the rich, so the ruins could never be rebuilt.

Bagrati cathedral would have been a work of imagination in large part, with freshly-cut stone upon a steel frame — especially as the country is vulnerable to earthquakes. What UNESCO objected to was that the framework, the reconstruction of a pillar of society, was on the outside and not disguised.
This tells us much about the United Nations and the Fabians whose frameworks, pursued with steely determination, are hidden.
The world’s functionaries talk of “cooperation frameworks” for sustainable development by which they plan to re-engineer society.
One could get into an argument about globalist architecture, how their social engineering projects such as Bolshevism and the Third Reich crushed early Constructivist architecture in favour of the political brutalist statements of Monumentalism.
We could discuss how the European project has erased national landmarks and monuments in favour of an ersatz Europeanism.
Numerous UN-linked officials have said in the past that Europe must surrender its culture and submit to assimilation.
Back in the late 1990s, when the European Central Bank was designing its paper currency, it strictly banned images of any cultural landmarks. A bank note in Italy was thought to resemble a famous bridge, so the ECB had it pulped and replaced with a more generic engraving.
What replaces culture? “Values and trust,” which are code for post-democractic government, as we discussed in our recent series on censorship, "Trust and Servitude."
Representation is replaced by trust; rights by values; truth by consensus.

Their cookie-cutter buidings look like a doodle a child could make with a drawing template of circles, squares and spirals — to which the human body and form cannot relate.
Today we witness crass symbolism, such as the European parliament in Strasbourg and its references to the Tower of Babel. Nations such as post-Soviet Georgia are struggling to transition from one internationalist social engineering project to another.

This rabble of Babel does not tolerate opposition voices. When Hungary’s prime minister Viktor Orbán discussed peace in Ukraine with the leaders of Russia, China and the probable next U.S. president the EU and NATO went ballistic.
Ukraine, which throughout this war has accepted payment from Russia to transit oil to Hungary and Slovakia, suddenly blocked supplies. [1]

German police this week raided the office and home of Compact magazine founder and chief editor Jürgen Elsässer. They took down the journal’s web site, its social media and video channels for the crime of directly confronting government policies on immigration, globalism and the dismantling of the nation state.

Consensus imposed from top down is to replace representative democracy, using assemblies selected in order to give legitimacy to the subversion of traditonal society.
The new British government of Keir Starmer has said assemblies, of diverse and devolved peoples and regions, will be used to validate unpopular policies and “give legitimacy to the sometimes hard choices that have to be made that require trade-offs.”

Assemblies will be raised to parity with the nation; so that elected legislators no longer vote on policies that are implemented at local level.
In Australia the same approach was attempted with the “indigenous voice to parliament” — not actually parliament but a voice somewhere outside the democratic process. The people saw through the ploy and it was rejected in a referendum.

Across the Anglosphere the Fabians are in celebratory mood, now that His Majesty’s Military and Secret Intelligence Services have given Labour the green light to implement a centuries-old project. These are the two hands that wash each other — liberal capitalism and its monopoly counterpart, delivering scientific dictatorship for the profit of the money power disguised as the greater good.
The Fabians have always hidden their objective. They claim to be a left-wing think tank with “over 7,000 members” — which is very small for such an influential organisation if you think about it; more of a Leninist vanguard of the politically "advanced" sections of the party.

Pods for people
Where does that leave the people?
Parliaments will be replaced with pods.
Kutaisi was the seat of the Georgian parliament from 2012 to 2018 during the attempt to decentralise the government of Georgia — an agenda that is back on the table as the objective of this year’s protests in Tbilisi.

It is easy to say that globalists with their diminuition of patria and the replacement of culture with identity politics have no right to lecture us — but they have “flooded the zone” with their “whole of society” approach.
Ironically they act first not in lands like Georgia in which the people have distinct regional ties but in those countries that have been re-engineered, such as we find in northern Europe.
The more regimented to digital obeisance — and dissociated from traditional ties — the easier it is to co-opt a populace. When the people have been schooled like fish, it is easier to influence their direction.
Even in countries where people identify themselves by land of origin however, the hollowing out of economies accelerates a flood into the cities.
You would think that the Greens with their desire to depopulate and rewild the countryside would be happy. They achieve their degrowth and defarming — the great shutdown.
And it happens in many lands for free! Cities expand; the countryside is emptied.
In the Netherlands, Germany and Britain they are having to pay farmers to abandon the fields.
As the people congregate in the cities the powers that be (TPTB) cannot resist turning them into camps — closing off exits as we see with ultra-low emission zones (ULEZ) and 15-minute cities — even exterminating the inmates, as we see with the “safe and effective.”
Few people are ready to confront this reality and yet for many it is already too late.
Rest and recuperation
In the Soviet Union the communist party would reward workers, managers and officers with rest and recuperation amid the fresh air and fir trees of a network of sanitoria.
I drove past the former sanatorium of Tsqaltubo: hectares of parklands still beautiful in their untended state; although the sanatorium buildings were acquired for a private spa — through a process my driver called banditism.
I reflected that the USSR allowed some limited personal space in return for outward conformity. The strengthening of body and muscle was encouraged, so long as it did not interfere with objectives of the state.
This is not the globalist, anti-humanist aim, which is to compete with the populace for all resources — food, energy and mineral resources, land and space. We are in the inherited money stage of empire, which can only consume — for it cannot create. It is terrified of losing wealth and position because it knows it cannot reacquire it, in the pithy summation of Tucker Carlson.
Artificial intelligence, cybernetic control of society, with its Cloud and data centres, electronic currency, telemedicine, computing of DNA, allocation and rationing down to the level of personal bodily movement and privacy, depends on the consumption of energy not its production.
Why, in the world as they envisage it, would you offer people rest and recuperation to restore their bodily integrity? They don’t offer you a sanatorium; they offer you a pod.

"The Tower of Babel and the European parliament in Strasbourg"
Everything you know is wrong with our world can be explained with that photo, and a picture is worth a thousand bibles.
It all depends on the use of electricity that powers their web of control! That cathedral looks amazing by the way…
