China is looking to reign in its new oligarchs, its tech giants, who, in the span of about a decade ended up with vast empires that dwarved the sizes of some of the biggest government departments in the Chinese Communist Party state.
In the process, its also looking to make sure no American Big Techers get their data mining noses in their proverbial business by setting standards that are targeted at preventing non-government agents, be they foreign or domestic, from collecting data of any substance about their chattel, that is, citizens.
China has woken up to the reality that data is the new power that leads to all other power and right now, their own newly billionaired tech princes and princesses have more access to data about these citizens than the government itself does. Well, that’s about to change, and what happens in China will be noticed by all, with nation-states that have similar levels of control over their citizens doing similar things to protect themselves from being usurped in real power in their own lands by tech moguls.
The plans will be approved by Xi or they won’t happen at all. There is no debate. Xi will decide specifically what the new social media landscape is for his country.
The data restrictions include assuring the algorithms do not violate the principles of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Just like America, which has its own monopolistically imposed commitment to assuring algorthms reflect a specifical morality over all other moralities, even if the one morality violates the liberties of the other moralities that might not agree with it., China means to keep dissenting values out of the public square, for the safety and welfare of the whole.
China’s tech bosses are among its wealthiest citizens, and they are very much in Xi’s sights. The boss of social and gaming giant Tencent, Pony Ma, is estimated by Forbes to be worth $43bn (£31bn). His peer Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba, is not far behind at $41bn.
With money have come power at home and influence abroad, both of which pose a threat to the Communist party, analysts say. China’s technologies increasingly shape the western world, from Alibaba in global trade, linking western buyers with exporters of goods made in China, to TikTok in popular culture, to online gaming, where Tencent has an interest in some of the most successful European developers.
“The recent regulatory crackdowns also send a chilling message to enterprising Chinese business people, whose contributions to the economy are far bigger than many state-owned firms,” said Dexter Roberts, senior fellow at Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security.
The Cyberspace Administration of China has issued a swathe of draft proposals to more rightly regulate how companies use algorithms.
The proposed guidelines say they must comply with laws and regulations, respect social ethics and ethics, abide by business ethics and professional ethics, and follow principles of (among others) fairness, openness and transparency.
The wide-ranging regulations would bar companies from using algorithms to hit consumers with higher prices based on their known preferences and trading habits, or influence online public opinion, or excessively manipulate search results in a way that harms competition.
Practices which violate public order, or encourage addiction or “high consumption” would also be curbed…….

An automotive chip shortage has led to production cuts around the globe, just as many carmakers are gearing up to expand their fleets of electric vehicles.
The shortage is a result of pandemic-related constraints on supply chains and other factors. And it could prolong the world’s sluggish transition to electric vehicles if chips remain scarce in the coming months, experts say.
“If we’ve got an ongoing chip shortage for an extended period of time, that means those [electric] vehicles can’t get built, and they can’t get sold, and we continue to have more older vehicles staying on the road longer,” said Sam Abuelsamid, an analyst at the market research firm Guidehouse Insights. “So that’s definitely a problem.”
That would delay the decarbonization of the emissions-intensive transportation sector, an effort most scientists believe is necessary to avoid the worst impacts of climate change.
The transportation sector accounted for 29 percent of the roughly 6.6 billion metric tons of…
There is a new type of farming called Molecular Farming that attempts to create edible medicine in grown plants. The plants are genetically altered to create medical byproducts that do not, theoretically, alter the taste, texture, or appearance of the plant.
The process began in 1986 as an idea that was later turned into a real process, but one with very limited, and costly applications. Now, the technoque might soon pave the way for consumable medicines and vaccines to be grown in plants as needed. Plants might soon be grown to create a wide range of medicnes and vaccines that are not innate to them, but can be created by altering dna and using synthetic biology to graft characterists from multiple sources onto one host.
We have spoken before aboutt the near-future possibility of hospitals having farm towers that are dedicated to growing plants that can be used to create medicines. Molecular Farming might be the technique that might make that dream a reality soon at a local hospital near you.
The one impediment to the rapid development of this technique will be Intellectual Property Laws that will restrict the ability of individuals to make their own biomanufacturing centers, as is usually the case when we are talking about a number of emerging technologies. Open source molecular farming must be developed by Freedom-minded people if we are to hope to see the potential self and associative sustainability that these techniques can create.
….molecular farming, a vision to have plants synthesize medications and vaccines. Using genetic engineering and synthetic biology, scientists can introduce brand new biochemical pathways into plant cells—or even whole plants—essentially turning them into single-use bioreactors.
The whole idea has a retro-futuristic science fiction vibe. First conceived of in 1986, molecular farming got its boost three decades later, when the FDA approved the first—and only—plant-derived therapeutic protein for humans to treat Gaucher disease, a genetic disorder that prevents people from breaking down fats.
But to Drs. Hugues Fausther-Bovendo and Gary Kobinger at Université Laval, Quebec and Galveston National Laboratory, Texas, respectively, we’re just getting started. In a new perspective article published last week in Science, the duo argues that plants have long been an overlooked resource for biomanufacturing.
PGC -The anti-American unconstitutional decision of rogue DNC judges to allow humans to sue gun manufacturers when others use their guns to kill others has made it clear that our own court system and government is willing to do anything it can to disarm us so it can control us as completely as we see happening to our north in disarmend Canada and acrossthe pond in the disarmed UK.
These Anti-american CCP cousins have unleashed a pandora’s box of fear and hate aimed at destroying our ability to purchses guns by destroying our manufactuers, since they can’t seem to get enough political capital to push through the types of anti-American, CCP-enabling gun control bills these wanna-be-dictators are seeking to pass.
Mexico has already taken advantage of this criminal decision by rogue CCP-allied judges to attack the sovereignty of the American people themselves, using the precedent set by these outlaw judges to sue American gun manufactuers for violence in their lands. This leaves not only gun manufacturers in America open to legal liabilty should Mexico find a CCP judge instead of an American one, but it also leaves all of our weapons manufactuers vulnerable to foreign lawsuits that could not only destroy the American gun industry, but maybe even our defense industry as well.
To the CCP-inspired DNC, such destruction is just another “necessary” evil in the fight against humanity and freedom and the fight for distopian complete control of all of its citzens and the death of the American bill-of-right-limited Democratic Republic.
Earlier this month, Mexico sued six U.S. gun manufacturers, one foreign manufacturer, and a Boston-area wholesaler in federal court in Massachusetts. According to the complaint, the defendants design, market, and sell guns in ways they know will arm Mexican drug cartels. Although Mexico has strict gun laws and prohibits the importation of guns without a permit, it is estimated that more than half a million guns flow from the United States into Mexico each year. During the first five months of 2020, statistics show that nearly half the guns recovered from crime scenes in Mexico were made by the defendant manufacturers. Most of Mexico’s claims are tort claims, including negligence, public nuisance, and defective design, but Mexico also alleges that the defendants have been unjustly enriched and have violated unfair business practices statutes in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
In 2005, Congress acted to immunize gun manufacturers and dealers from liability based on the criminal use…
From WION out of India, the collapse of the US-backed government in Kabul is invoking images of the fall of Saigon as panicked locals realize the retreat of the US means the new masters of their country will seek their vengeance. The sheer terror and chaos are a culmination of 20 years of bad policy that cannot solely be laid at the feet of either Trump or Biden, of Democrats or Republicans. It has been a massive bipartisan failure at the gross expense of tens of thousands people, including American troops whose lives were forever changed by their deployment there.
Let’s look past the partisan spin and blame game DC is so famous for and debunk some common partisan narratives.
Biden Isn’t The Author Of This Disaster
President Biden certainly didn’t do anything to mitigate the debacle that has been the “war on terror” during his 8 years as Vice President. But the genesis of the collapse of the US-backed government in Kabul begins in 2001. The knee-jerk response to the Al Qaeda attack, which saw the US focus on “nation-building” and embrace the myth “better to fight the bad guys overseas than at home.”
We didn’t fight the bad guys, we engaged in nation-building. When US and Northern Alliance troops were closing in Al Qaeda, the US suddenly STOPPED the attack and Bin Laden got away. Ideally, had this attack been pushed to its conclusion, the bad guys are gone, the war is over. Sure, the US could back the Northern Alliance as it did the Mujahideen, but we went for an invasion to save people who weren’t trying to save themselves.
Instead of snuffing the real bad guys out, the US let them go, perhaps due to incompetence, perhaps for other geopolitical reasons. The nation-building idea was always bad and once the US entered the land and began its han-fisted approach to Afghani politics, the stage was set for what happened, albeit after much loss of mostly civilian lives.
Donald Trump’s Withdrawal Agreement Was Bad
Donald Trump wanted out and he was willing to make nice with the Taliban, on the grounds they promised, on paper, to foreswear the use of terrorism or hosting terrorism. It was not expected this would be observed, but if it wasn’t, well, we have plenty of bombs for that. Whatever one thinks of Trump, he knew when to hold and when to fold, and it was time to fold. But his plan involved militarily supporting a withdrawal and leaving in May, not August. His plan wasn’t followed the US arbitrarily reneged on the deal.
It’s true it may seem Trump was naive about the Taliban and that they weren’t going to follow the deal. But Trump’s calculus was to stop the bleeding and cut losses but to make sure the withdrawal of US personnel and collaborative Afghanis was orderly and on time.
A better deal wasn’t to be had and none of the critics have proposed better alternatives that would have worked.
The US Is On Retreat and Only Taliban Backers Like China and Pakistan Benefit
One alternative view is that the seemingly precipitous withdrawal is an abject defeat. But the geopolitical calculus is possible mote subtle. The US is aligning against China and its position on Afghanistan leaves it vulnerable to Russia, Pakistan, and the “Stans” and constrains their hand against China. In essence, China, allied to Pakistan, and Russia, patron of the Stans, could hold US forces hostage.
China may indeed be falling for a clever trap in which they become embroiled in the morasse of Afghani trial politics. The Taliban may be making nice with Beijing now but it’s ability to keep its word is nil. The love betweem Islamists and Communists is notoriously low, which is the nicest thing one may say about the Communists.
Biden Blew It By Changing The Date of Withdrawal
It is true Biden abandoned the original agreement and plan, thus making the blaming of Trump laughable as the plan executed was not Trump’s plan. The negotiations with the Taliban were nixed and so was the withdrawal date, which did in fact violate the agreement.
While this was used as a pretext by the Taliban to present this change as an affront to Afghanistan itself, it is flimsy logic to say this alone ruined the plan. Biden needed, or wanted, more time to effect withdrawal and vastly over-estimated the potential of Afghan forces. The major deviation was dismissing the Taliban, but one can hardly argue against viewings these people as brutal savages as opposed to making nice with them.
The Taliban don’t keep agreements. Biden knew this and ditched the idiotic pretext, but it may have led to a miscalculation of many things, such as the strength of the enemy and of allies. Merely changing the date of withdrawal may have fed Taliban propaganda, but that’s about it.
What’s The Conclusion?
The collapse of the US-backed government in Afghanistan was essentially ensured when US and Allied forces tried to defend people who didn’t want to fight for themselves and tried nation-building in a land that basically rejected the values upon which that effort was based.

Freedom will win and enlightment will overcome deception and lies because no human or natural power on this earth can forever prevent the eternal universal laws of causality (the laws of Creation) from operating in their full effect. Freedom and enlightment are the elevated state of humanity in God’s ordained plans, bondage and deception stem from a sin nature inherited like a curable disease from our first ancestor, Adam.
The laws of Creation all bend toward a movement and evolution in the direction of freedom and enlightment: people and whole civilizations that remain willfully locked in bondage and lies will experience the consequences of defying the laws of Creation. When an old civilization becomes mired in the sin nature and its proclivity toward bondage and deception it fails and in its failure it causes widespread destruction and harm to anyone who remains dependent upon its structures and institutions.
Our focus is not on the sin nature, the fact our present civilization has become mired, or the coming catastrophic upheaval that will wreck this civilization over the next decades. Our focus is on another outcome that attends the collapse of old civilizations: namely the emergence of a new civilization from within and outside the borders of those lands dominated by that old civilization.
Those who embrace the new, if indeed the new is based on the ideals of freedom and enlightment which come from our elevated state, find ways to escape the negative consequences of the old civilization’s moral and spiritual collapse and, if enough people embrace this, can help entire lands and nations of people transition peacefully from old to new!
We can see the future by understanding the cycles of history and seeing both where we have been and where we are going. We can see what is possible and what is inevitable. We can see the present civilization is in rapid moral and spiritual decline and yet we can also see the emergence of the new civilization.
The four core ideals of the new civilization include a Judeo-Christian understanding and balanced application of Unity in diversity, Popular sovereignty, Democratic equality, and Rule of law. These are not ideological platitudes! If you understand both their inner harmony, like “Democratic” versus “equality” and “Unity” versus “diversity”, and their interdependence with each other, like how each ideal is balanced by the others, you arrive at a disciplined approach to action, interaction, lifestyle and governance that is guided by wisdom to produce mutually and individually beneficial results.
The application of these core ideals of the new civilization, which alone is guided by four core ideals and not just one, opens doors and enables you to navigate life, relationships, and scaled-up associations with others in a profitable and stable manner. Every civilization is based on their own version of one, possibly more than one, of these ideals: they are the essential ideals of human civilization itself.
Those who properly understand these ideals from a holistic and people-centered perspective, with the aim being to harmonize with God’s standards of righteousness and justice for the nations, can more effectively build freedom on an organic and emergent basis with minimal top-down centralized control. We would say that without fully understanding these ideals en toto your methods and processes will struggle to produce freedom within a franework of righteousness and justice and on a purely freewill participatory basis.
The four core ideals are not our answer to racialist/racist systems, like nazism or identitarianism, nor to right-wing and left-wing authoritarianism.
The symbol for these ideals, the Upadarian Cross, is in many ways seen as the antithesis of the swastika or the hammer and sickle, but only because its invention came after these hateful symbols became infamous.
The two lines that cross each other and form a cross, one with hashes on its end and one without, represent diverse individuals or groups intersecting and connecting. The surrounding diamond represents the four core ideals which gives them organic cohesiveness without violating their individual spiritual sovereignty, their shared regency, or self-determination, in freewill participation with one another. This cross represents the idea that all human beings are created equally in God’s image and are owed respect and protection for their human dignity, human rights, and human flourishing by any society deeming itself righteous and just. Tolerance, respect, righteousness, justice, equality, and equity are the catchwords of the Upadarian lifestyle and governance discipline.
We prefer to say that the Upadarian cross represents the core ideals for a just and righteousness civilization, one that is fully based on freewill participation and not coercion. These ideals predate the baneful totalitarian and/or racist ideologies, and so we recoil at the notion the Upadarian cross is somehow our “response” to the swastika: the racist swastika is a counterfeit symbol rooted in hate that is a response to God’s love, it is the anyithesis of justice and equity, these things, as represented by the Upadarian cross, aren’t the antithesis to nazism, communism, racism, or totalitarianism!
Put another way, the Upadarian Cross represents core ideals that are fundamental to a just and righteous society based purely on freewill participation, while symbols like the swastika and the hammer and sickle are the antithesis to the Upadarian cross!
Whoever uses the Upadarian cross is affirming their love and respect for humanity as beings created equal in God’s image and is committed to tolerance, acceptance, and respect for the human dignity, human rights, and human flourishing of all other human beings on this planet. The Upadarian Cross is the symbol of the new civilization which we envision emerging in this world on a purely freewill participatory basis, that is, by people and voluntary groups or intentional communities, adopting these ideals as their standard of self-governance.
If you see something like Democratic equality and you think this means “majority rule” or “equal wealth distribution”, then your understanding lacks balance and harmony. This doesn’t mean you aren’t smart or noble, it is just what has been crammed down your throat without being shown the inner harmony of this ideal, its Judeo-Christian roots, or its understanding in light of the need to balance it with the other ideals. What is also lacking is an understanding how this and the other ideals can and should be used on an individual basis and within strictly voluntary groups and communities, instead of as a political buzzword that had no real value in everyday life!
The four core ideals are a blueprint for building freedom in your own life, relationships, and associations and by studying their deeper meaning, inner harmony, Judeo-Christian roots, and balance with each other, you begin to form a proper, balanced mechanism for mutual support and advancement that has no peer. If two or more people make these core ideals, again with their inner harmony and in balance with each other, the guide for their conduct, standards, and norms, they will tend to produce good results for all concerned.
Indeed, even if you simply use these ideals to make smarter decisions, once you learn and internalize them, your decision-making will improve and your habits will begin to organically enhance your life instead of dragging you down and holding you back.
Like the four core ideals, the Upadarian Cross stands firmly against things like racialism, racism, bigotry, intolerance, exploitation, and authoritarianism. But more than standing against these things, the four core ideals and the Upadarian Cross stand FOR the advancement of equitable and just freedom for all human beings, without exception.
Behold, a new nation among humankind, a nation of people drawn from every race and ancestry, distributed all over the world, destined to be harbingers of a new civilization and a witness and influence for Yeshua to the nations!
The Gideon’s Call of Upadaria is a call to nationhood that moves you toward your own scroll of destiny and purpose and connects you to a grand and glorious shared scroll of destiny and purpose. Nation builders for the Lord are called forth to do a new thing which happens only every 500 or so years!
If you resonate with an opportunity to truly be part of a nation whose God is the Lord, in the vision of Upadaria is your path to experience the unique blessings and provision that will enable you to fulfill the scroll of destiny and purpose for your life, which is God’s best for your life, with excellence. Whatever your past or present, your future can be glorious and complete, without limitation!
Is your country poor or corrupt or unfree? If your own past riddled with mistakes you cannot undo or get past? Is your wealth limited and your means to gain wealth narrow?
The power of nationhood as God defines it is transfigurative, it transcends reality as you know it because, if properly understood, it taps into an eternal and universal reality that harmonizes with Creation itself. It can be apprehended and experienced as an individual, you need no guru or top-down system of control, it is something one adopts in relationship to God alone, without any human authority dictating to you. When you begin to use its ideals, principles, and practices you feel, experience, and see the laws of Creation conspiring on your behalf.
To become a Upadarian, if, and only if, this is connected to God’s scroll of destiny and purpose for YOUR life, you step into a supernatural realm of possibilities that comes from God’s heavenly blueprint, a sacred framework, not defined by human or earthly understanding. Even the concept of nationhood, which earthly thinkers define as politics, statehood, or even race and ancestry, is transcendent and liberating, it is rooted in the Kingdom and of its essence, it is freeing and empowering.
Nationhood is, at its heart, a shared scroll of destiny and purpose that harmonizes, nay, enhances and empowers, your own individual scroll of destiny and purpose! This is what we call “wyrd”, a story written before time through a collaboration of your Will and God’s will and design, a destiny and purpose that CANNOT be limited or defined by earthly means.
The grand purpose of diverse nations of people within God’s Kingdom is this: that people might find God if haply they seek Him. And if they find God, they find His wyrd for themselves and they connect to a shared wyrd, such as marriage and family and nationhood, all the things ordained by God for human civilization.
Even if you are not ordained by God to become a peer of Upadaria, our globally distributed spiritual nation, if you follow Yeshua you are ordained to walk in our universal nationhood as Believers and you are likely, if you seek it, called to be part of a diversity expression of Kingdom Nationhood through a unique spiritual nation.
Nationhood itself is the big breakthrough idea of our age, it will become a central theme for the future, both in terms of am emerging new civilization and within the whole Body of Christ.
Nationhood is individual and shared destiny and purpose actualized for the glory of God, the praise of His Name, and the advancement of the presence and influence of the Kingdom among us all.
The Upadarian nation is unique because it is specifically designed to draw people from many diverse ancestries and so-called “races”, because it is intended to be distributed globally, and because its very “homeland of heart and hearth” will consist of tiny to larger plots of land distributed all over the world here and there as safe havens for freedom. Our nation is not a political state of any kind, but everything spiritual transcends the political or any earthly system and cannot be overcome by any earthly means.
Those seeking to understand theories and roots of truth, deeper principles, for the sheer privilege of knowing them, may pass on and keep their theoretical journey going past the truth and past destiny. Those who see in this, IF this is meant for them, a call to participate, will, as a matter of course, find those roots of truth and deeper principles but for the purpose of actualizing them effectively.
If you want to live fully and enjoy this life and if you desire to be prepared for the life to come, and if this calling harmonizes with the scroll of destiny and purpose for your life, then in embracing and identifying with this diversity expression of Kingdom Nationhood you will find the most sublime truths of the Kingdom as well.
They say you will not find the right answers unless you ask the right questions. Those who ask “why is this so, what is the essential truth” may err, because the right question is “how shall I live before God?” If you seek this and get your answer, and those who are sincere will get their answer, then these other questions will be answered as well.
You are trying to go to a route without getting there by the means provided. Outside of knowing your wyrd and understanding your shared wyrd, you will not profit from understanding the root of all things. If indeed you are called to our particular form of spiritual nationhood in Christ, your answers will come through the path of understanding FIRST your OWN wyrd, then a shared wyrd like our nationhood, then the wyrd of Creation itself.
Unprofitable questions are often those which are out of order. One must understand the puddle at one’s feet before understanding the deepest elementals which govern all bodies of water. Likewise, one must understand their own wyrd before understanding the wyrd of Creation. One must understand their own wyrd before understanding the wyrd of humanity. One must see their own nature, both of the flesh and their undying spirit, before exploring deeply that which is the universal nature of humankind.
While this does not apply to everyone, if you are indeed called and ordained to be a nation-builder for Yeshua in participating in Upadaria, if you desire to understand all the deepest universals before understanding your role and purpose within our shared wyrd, which enhances your individual wyrd, then it is likely even if you get your answer it will not profit you.
We must ever ve careful of three things:
First, we must never present Upadaria as a system of rules and requirements. It is an opportunity and its ideals, principles, practices and the such, its entire shared wyrd, are a means for the individual to actualize their own wyrd. If it takes away from your wyrd, it’s not meant for you and only you can determine that.
Second, this vision is not incumbent upon all people or all Christians, it may be rooted on Kingdom essentials regarding nationhood that are universal, but Upadaria as a spiritual nation is not part of every Christian’s wyrd any more than our unique and particular convictions, expressed in our 17 Protocols, equate to “doctrine” or the essential doctrinal and moral orthodoxy of historic orthodoxy. Our unique convictions conform to historic orthodoxy, they do not define it.
Third, while any structures and organizations based on the vision of the Upadarian nationality and on the vision of a Upadarian civilization will exist, the path of entry and ongoing participation is always and essentially a matter solely between the individual and God. Nobody has to buy anything or join anything to be a peer of a spiritual nation, it is a shared identity based on a shared wyrd that eminates from and depends upon God alone and the individual.
Upadaria is a spiritual nation, any Upadarian structures or institutions that emerge will come and go, they are not the nation and if or when they fade, the spiritual nation will remain if its core identity is Yeshua and His Kingdom.
These are hard things to understand because your thinking is colored by the earthly definitions of nationhood. In a similar manner as to how the Jews saw the Kingdom of God and could not disconnect their earthly understanding of kingdoms, so too people struggle with a form of nationhood rooted in the Kingdom.
The call to become a peer of Upadaria is not universal, but we believe the call to be part of the eternal and universal nationhood of all Believers is uncomment upon all Christians. We further believe that for many, understanding the diversity of nationhood as a peer of Upadaria will unlock the door to understand the universals upon which this is predicated. The entry point and progression is not necessarily from root to manifestations, it is from simple and surface, e.g. the diversity manifestation, to deeper and sublime, the universal.
If the idea and appeal of being part of a Christian nation and a Christian civilization draws you and makes your heart glad, you may indeed be called to adopt this diversity expression of Kingdom Nationhood, becoming a peer of Upadaria through a pledge between God and you alone. You may or may not go deeper and you may or may not be ordained to become a nation builder and to help build the genesis structures of this globally distributed spiritual nation and the new civilization, this is not required to become a peer of Upadaria and to enjoy the specific blessings and provisions which flow from God to and through nations and through no other means.
PGC – The US House Republicans issued a report that came to the conclusion the Coronavirus-19 came from a lab leak in Wuhan somewhere around September of 2019. Right around that same time, there were military personel present in Wuhan from multiple nations that came to compete in military games.
This is where the Chinese government suggests it was US military personel that brought the virus to Wuhan, but the Republicans say the virus came from a lab leak in Wuhan, which happened to be working on an activated coronivirus at the time, in part thanks to US funding approved by Dr. Fauci himself.
The DNC finds itself in the awkward position of once again siding with the CCP on this one, as it damages their political opponents and, for the DNC, what hurts your political opponent at home is worth whatever international diminishment you cause the nation.
While the DNC won’t be able to full-on support the US Army Did it theory of the Chinese, their lower level hatcket folks most assuredly will. The DNC will simply downplay the significance of the GOP study and call it premature, but it will be doubtful if whatever they produce from their investigation will lead to anything more than “we may never know.”
The Chinese government dismissed a House GOP report that argues COVID-19 escaped from a Wuhan lab in late summer 2019, arguing it is based on “concocted lies.”
The Communist Party also pointed a finger at the U.S. military, a tactic Republicans said made sense if it was trying to cover up the outbreak’s source.
House Foreign Affairs Committee Republicans concluded the October 2019 World Military Games in Wuhan were “one of the earliest super spreader events” of the pandemic, with the report contending COVID-19 emerged from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in late August or early September 2019, with China covering it up for months.
The report zeroed in on the event, during which more than 9,000 military personnel from over 100 countries came to compete in Wuhan, where Republicans argue the Chinese government knew the virus was circulating.
Or- The Upadarian Dream of Freedom, Justice, and Prosperity For All
The concept and vision we refer to as “Upadaria” comes from a series of future “historical fiction” stories presented as written in 2147 that depict the emergence of a new civilization founded on Judeo-Christian ideals which rose as Western Civilization’s decline plunged the world into massive and catastrophic upheaval. This fictional future history became the basis of envisioning new ideas and methods to build freedom in our own lives, relationships, and communities through unilateral action aimed at the restoration and modern adaptation of ancient institutions such as family, extended multi-family households, and nationhood as a spiritual, as opposed to political, construct.
“UPADARIA”, pronounced “you-pah-daria”, is a vision of freedom founded upon a basis of virtue according to historic Christian moral orthodoxy (albeit on a strictly voluntary basis), liberty according to the most generous interpretation of the original spirit and intent of the US Bill of Rights, and independence through individual and mutual material, social, cultural, and economic independency and self-reliance.
Our NEW dream of freedom for all may be revealed and explained through fictional future history, written in 2147, but it is a practical dream for a new reality we can create together, starting in our own minds and hearts, extending to our relationships and families, right now.
Freedom in our society has been reduced, simplified, and watered down to a weak, pale form of individual self-indulgence mostly limited to the ancient world’s “bread and circuses”, or subsistence and entertainment/carnal pleasure. Being on the dole and mostly being encouraged to indulge your more animalistic and shallow carnal desires isn’t freedom, it does not engender dignity, and it positively threatens to destroy your agency and fulfillment as a human created in the image of God.
While you may no doubt feel a craving for freedom, for some way to actualize who you feel you truly are or wish to be, and to not be subjected to the will of others, what you may not realize is what the key missing ingredient in your liberation is. It is something you likely do not suspect and have never before heard before. But it is something that, once actualized in your life and relationships, is practically guaranteed to transfigure your life and circumstances in a most powerful way.
What we are speaking of here is the most powerful means for actualizing human agency known throughout history and for this reason it is something that, in ever tightening circles, the ruling class have assaulted with mich vigor!
The heart of what we propose is essential to true freedom, and not the shallow “bread and circuses freedom” sold by the ruling class to keep us in bondage to them, is best described in technical terms as “organic cohesiveness” and in more traditional terms is the essential spiritual quality that permeates nationhood, tribe, clan, community, extended family, immediate family, and marriage as defined by millenia of moral orthodoxy.
While we begin with and propose a specific form of spiritual nationhood, hence “Upadaria”, the concepts of nationhood as applied down to the individual level can be used by anyone: you don’t need to buy into our particular proposed form of nationhood in order to use these ideas. However, in our presentation of nationhood as a concept, we choose to frame our proposal through the lens of our future fictional history and through our vision and plan for giving birth to a new spiritual nation.
In our new dream of freedom the focus on individual actualization of our scroll of destiny and purpose, of God’s best for our lives, is through a combination of individual spiritual sovereignty and through the warm and supportive embrace of familial type relationships that scale up to the level of entire spiritual nations of people whose God is the Lord. Our dream is strictly voluntary, based on freewill participation, therefore whoever may be critical of our approach or convictions is free to choose another way, we do not desire the use of coercive laws and diktat from the state to advance our spiritual revolution within. We only desire and demand respect for our spiritual sovereignty and for our social, cultural, and economic autonomy as free and independent human beings endowed by our God with certain and self-evident inalienable rights.
We recognize and assert that without the warm embrace of voluntary familial connections we become atomized, isolated individuals who are easy prey to any larger scale powers and interests who wish to harness our labor and make us their servants. Our breakthrough discovery is this: that nationhood as a spiritual construct was ordained by God to nurture familial connections that provide the organic cohesiveness whereby people can essentially choose not only for themselves and their own actions but for the very type of sociocultural reality and norms they wish to be self-governed by.
The new dream of freedom is a form of intentional nationhood anyone can opt into anywhere around the world but which connects people on the basis of freewill participation alone for mutual profit and support from the smallest to the largest scale. This is a very unique proposition, it just doesn’t fit into most people’s expectations or experiences, which for some is simply beyond their comprehension, having been indoctrinated to limit their realm of possibilities to such a narrow horizon. The desire and habit to equate nationhood to such shallow things as politics, citizenship in a country, race, or ancestry is so ingrained that, until the numbers of innovators grow to a larger scale, most people won’t even explore alternatives.
Nationhood is a meta-scale shared SPIRITUAL identity defined by things like ideals, principles, practices, and mandates rooted in common beliefs, values, and convictions. This is very hard to convey with mere words, it is often felt inwardly by those who finally break through the illusions set by the ruling class and who see the whole through the eyes of their spirit.
Whether it is the universal nationhood of all Believers or a diversity manifestation of Kingdom Nationhood such as Upadaria, nationhood, once seen and felt from the spirit, changes everything in relation to the external reality and begins a process of designing and building a new personal reality that cannot be stamped out by the ruling class.
The traditional, in modern terms (because there are far deeper and more ancient traditions), approach to freedom uses trite, predictable language and is overly reliant on politics and the state to advance itself. When we see nationhood as spiritual, voluntary, shared identity based on pure ideals, instead of race or politics, we can both be welcoming to many others and yet also be more selective in who we choose to identify with on the basis of love and affection as opposed to prejudice and “otherfication.”
Being for your nationhood as a way of life and shared identity is NOT about being AGAINST others and their identity and way of life. Peaceful coexistence built on mutual respect for human dignity, human rights, and human flourishing is possible when we understand and practice this more ancient form of spiritual nationhood.
What is the Upadarian nationhood based on?
At its heart, the Upadarian nationality is a form of spiritual nationhood that flows from and builds upon the foundation of the Kingdom of God which is among us, within us, and coming to future fulfillment through God’s power alone. But, beyond this, there are specific convictions that, while not essential to our core identity as followers of Yeshua, who is the Christ and Son of God, are essential to our shared identity as a spiritual nation whose God is the Lord.
The key aspect of this spiritual nation is our shared ideals, principles, practices, and mandates which we make explicit through 17 Protocols which every peer of our nation individually and in free association with others strives to actualize, albeit solely through the power, leading, and provision of God and purely on the basis of freewill participation. We are not building an organization or a hiearchy, we are not creating some class of gurus, lords, or “anointed leaders” who dictate life to other people. Nationhood is something you adopt and then willingly share with others on an equal basis, it isn’t a top-down system of control by the few over the many.
There have been over the years those who have either suspected in this vision some absurd attempt to create a church or closed-minded, insular “cult” and some who, while seemingly welcoming of the vision, so accustomed to top-down control that they desired to impose our vision! In both cases these people are victims of indoctrination by a top-down system of control perpetuated by an immoral ruling class which is emulated even within churches and other types of communities and associations.
Someone who understands and seeks to make Upadaria manifest isn’t prone to submit to any cultish or top-down control by any human being! Those who understand and use our 17 Protocols as God leads and provides do not need or desire a human master to dictate anything to them. Those who follow these 17 Protocols may join organizations and structures based on the Upadarian nationality, but they don’t have to in order to become Upadarian nationals.
Sadly, many of those who would invoke groundless accusations and epithets against spiritual nationhood, whether of Upadaria or anything else, are themselves infected with a cultish top-down mentality which has been in control of their entire existence. They project this to others while denying that they are victims of such abuse at the hands of a corrupt ruling class. The early Christians, who were and remain the eternal prototype for spiritual nationhood, faced similar problems from deluded victims of the cultish Roman imperium.
Invoking nationhood outside the expectations of political citizenship and race or ancestry to find ways to remove your thinking and your lifestyle from under the control of a corrupt ruling class will no doubt cause some to recoil a bit at this seemingly novel approach. But it is essential that we understand nationhood from the perspective of a set of ideals and principles that have their origins in spiritual truth and a spiritual identity.
Our dream of freedom and prosperity for all may have a seemingly unorthodox genesis, the use of nationhood as the organic glue that can connect many people solely on the basis of freewill participation, but the aim is for each person to walk in total freedom and obtain prosperity.
