    Dear james,

    Thank you SO MUCH !

    I’d like to clarify and bring attention to one of Corbett’s points when he argues that Bernays knowingly used the smoking campaign to sell poison (cigarettes) to women during the Easter Parade. The Easter Sunday Parade took place in 1929, but according to Dr. Robert Proctor of Stanford University, the ill health effects of smoking were not recognized until the 1940s and 50s. Therefore it is deceiving to demonize Bernays on this issue. As a side note, I’m not trying to absolve Bernays of some of the other things he did, such as in Guatemala, but with the smoking campaign I think we should set the record straight.

      After breakfast steaks, eggs and coffee…
      “Out here they smoke for flavor. Flavor, big and bold….”
      (one minute Marlboro commercial) – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFDFiwu41s4

      NOTE the background MUSIC in the commercial from The Magnificent Seven theme song (Elmer Bernstein)
      (3 1/2 minutes) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yulmgTcGLZw

      Now that is some inspiring music!

      Of course everyone in that era of cigarette TV ads saw the 1960 John Sturges film “The Magnificent Seven” with Yul Brynner, Eli Wallach, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, Robert Vaughn, Horst Buchholz, Brad Dexter & James Coburn. (The film was a western version of Akira Kurosawa’s “Seven Samurai.”)

      Watching that movie, hearing that music, yea!! I’m inspired! I feel like a man! A real man!
      I’m going to light up. Like a real man.

    Any other way to view that article?

      That’s great, even if not very applicable in my region. It’s not that easy to get ones. defenses up and ready on the old continent. However, getting something like an AK47 from the black market would probably set one back less than that CNC, however magnificent such a device may be. If one were so inclined to build several receivers, then it would be an entirely different story, of course, even if other parts are not that easily available here.

      • wingsuitfreak says:

        And of course the combination of a black market with a CNC would be the best thing since fried ice cream! I love revolutionary ideas….

        • mkey says:

          I was browsing a bit, a receiver can be finished reltively easily vwith a vice, a drill, a router and a jig set, which can be reusable for several receivers.

          I wonder how would local customs office react when they would spot the 80% receiver in the package.

          • wingsuitfreak says:

            Over here, in the land of never enough guns; there are enough AR-15s out so that people don’t need to order. They’ll just upgrade. Personally, I don’t like automatic fire. In my statist years, I was a paratrooper, and all I think about on ammo is how much does it weigh? And was it worth carrying all that extra weight? If you use automatic fire, the answer is usually no. It encourages wasteful shooting. First, by it’s inherently inaccurate method of firing. Second, by the user always assuming that a whole lot of sloppy shots is better than one correctly aimed shot. Plus a whole laundry list of reasons on my end. But what I DO like about it is that it worries the state to no end. Just my way of thinking.

            • mkey says:

              I have no personal experience on using firearms, however I completely concur in saying that automatic fire is not something one may need to use, ever. Even if push came to shove, I doubt there would be much oportunity to fire more than a few shots in a live scenario. I’m not Rambo, after all.

              There is an interesting post WW2 story in which three Japanese soldiers, maybe an officer among them, held out for some 30 years, engaging in guerrila warfare. Only one of them managed it till the end, he held his position until emperor came to give him the “news” of sureender. Just a few shots had been fired by those men in all of those years.

              • wingsuitfreak says:

                I don’t own guns anymore. Nothing against them, it’s just that it might overly shorten my decision making process; not to mention influencing the direction. Besides, I don’t really need one. In the first place, don’t start none, won’t be none is a real thing down here. Plus, I’m pretty confident that making it to 57 with my life choices; means that it’s gonna take a lot to take me down. It has taken a genius mind for me to survive my proclivity for so-called bad decisions. Besides, most people are pretty decent. Which is the most important part.
                While I think of a voting box as a fool’s errand; the ammo box is barely a double-edged sword. It’s a false blade on the people’s part. It can work, but it’s a whole different kind of knife fight. I like my wallet to do my revolution. I don’t use certain companies and I will pay more and put up with more to support others. How did I get here? 🙂

              • mkey says:

                I’m not that much worried about other people as much as I worry about state agents. Tensions are rising, a few months back sort of a military draft was instituted, politicians and their lapdogs are ratcheting up the propaganda.

                Armies here are in complete state of dissaray, which is great, however I don’t doubt loans will be footed to pick up the slack, on all sides. There’s lords of war left and right.

                When I was a kid military police was doing rounds and picking up able men to fuel the war effort. I’m not saying we’re there yet, but I’ll be damned before I let anyone take away me or any of my own.

                The peoples on these lands are very deeply divided and I don’t see the temerity required to achieve change.

    FLUORIDE
    I want to mention the Fluoride links which Corbett provides in the footnotes of Episode 033 – Meet Edward Bernays.
    They are excellent!

    In Dallas, we are gearing up for an October 11th, 2017 confrontation at Dallas City Hall. Regina has been (will be) doing some radio interviews. She is pretty smooth in her communication.

    The selling of water fluoridation and “diet” soft drinks is insidious. The chemical truth about these things was well known in advance.

    http://futurestorm.blogspot.ca/2009/01/fluoride-and-aspartame-numbing-dumbing.html

    Who started these programs? Who financed them? Obviously the intent is to keep the sheep grazing so the fleece always gets to an appropriate length. No black sheep are allowed to upset this social order.

    BOOK “Propaganda” by Edward L Bernays – pdf published 1928

    Mr. Corbett gave us the above link with late September’s tie-in to Edward Bernays Why Do You Eat Bacon and Eggs? https://www.corbettreport.com/why-do-you-eat-bacon-and-eggs/

    Psychopaths and Edward Bernays

    Psychopathic Trait
    At the end of this Corbett video, it was noted how Bernays would call everyone stupid or dope or demean them in some way. Make less of them.
    While making less of others, Bernays would “elevate self” because he traveled with the elite club.
    VIDEO 35:42 queued
    https://youtu.be/44I3pMouCnM?t=35m42s

    This trait of “making less of others” and “elevating self above others” is a characteristic which Psychopaths or Sociopaths often have.

    In the Corbett Report article The Strangest Documentary You’ll Ever See https://www.corbettreport.com/the-strangest-documentary-youll-ever-see/

    …there is the “Just For Fun(?)” section.
    This ties in very well to the topic of propaganda…
