Oppression (Western countries)

During the Iran-Contra hearings, Rep. Jack Brooks asked North: ''Col. North, in your work at the NSC, were you not assigned at one time to work on plans for the continuity of government in the event of a major disaster.''

North's Counsel, Brendan Sullivan interjected: "Mr. Chairman?"

Then, Senate Select Committee's chairman, Daniel Inouye said: "I believe that question touches upon a highly sensitive and classified area, so may I request that you not touch upon that?" Reminder that the US government is illegitimate.

The government can just kill people

Kent State Massacre - The killing of four and wounding of nine unarmed college students, protesting the Vietnam War, by the Ohio National Guard.

MOVE bombing - In 1985, the Philadelphia Police Department dropped an improvised military explosive from a helicopter onto the West Philadelphia row-house headquarters of MOVE, a Black liberation and back-to-nature organization. The bombing and resulting fire killed 11 people (including five children) and destroyed 61 neighboring homes.

Minneapollis protests - Renée Good: shot dead from the side of her car; Alex Pretti executed while trying to get up off the ground. The ICE agents who killed them never got charged with anything.

Philip Arthur Thompson - Philip Arthur Thompson was a hitman, weapons/drug trafficker and government informant suspected of participation on the Phoenix Programme during the Vietnam war. Throughout his career he would be found guilty of numerous crimes and murders only to be bailed out or receive a light sentence. Journalist, Cheri Seymour obtained records of a police interview with an FBI agent named Robert Barnes, where Barnes admitted that he had been Philip Thompson's Handler at the FBI during this period. In 1972 Thompson was working for Richard Nixon's second successful presidential campaign, aka CREEP (Committee to Re Elect the President). 

That same year, Thompson would be charged with check fraud and the kidnapping and sexual assault of a 17 year old girl. Later in 1975 he was charged with the murder of a gun trafficker called Ronald Winter. In 1976 Thompson was incarcerated on charges that included assault with a deadly weapon, forgery, and receiving stolen goods. Thompson staged separate prison escaped in 1978, during which he spent several months on the lamb, until police raided the apartment where he had been hiding out. Despite finding over $25K worth of stolen guns, oriental rugs, art objects and jewelry, no time was added to his sentence, and he was back on the street less then two years later. In 1981, Thompson and an associate were caught planning to rob a bank to buy weapons and send them to right wing paramilitary groups in El Salvador, who would pay for the shipment in cocaine. Thompson was granted bail almost immediately. 

In 1980 Thompson and Abbott had been working semi-legitimate jobs as the managers of the Tower apartments in San Francisco according to Abbot these were among the cheapest rentals in San Francisco operated by a slumlord who hired Abbott, Thompson and a third ex-convict in the middle of a rent strike to collect back rent from tenants who had stopped paying.

One of these tenants was a young aspiring actress named Valerie McDonald, who had recently graduated from the San Francisco art institute. According to McDonald's friends, she was scared of the newly hired managers of her apartment building, who she described having been invited to a party by, one which she left quickly after seeing bowls of cocaine and ''satanistic activities''. The day she disappeared, Michael Hennessy, the third ex-convict co-managing the apartments, approached her about an acting gig at a movie set. The last people to see McDonald alive said that, she had decided to go to the movie set with Hennessy. No one ever heard from McDonald again after that night. Those who knew Abbot and Thompson told private investigators that the had been taken to an apartment and chained to a bed before eventually being disposed of. Her case would go cold for almost two decades until 2000, when a set of bones that had been found in 1991 just outside of Danville Washington were positively identified as Valerie McDonald's. Shortly after McDonald's disappearance, Abbott Thompson and Michael Hennessy headed North to Trail British Columbia. There's a route from San Francisco to trail British Columbia that passes right by that rural section of Danville where McDonald's bones were found. When Abbott and Hennessy were searched after getting in a shootout with the police, they were found to be in possession of McDonald's jacket, her voter registration card, ID card and other property. Later after getting busted for robbing a jewelry store in 1982, his accomplice told police that he had information on a woman murdered in San Fransisco. The accomplice got life and Thompson walked.

Later in 1982, Thompson would be implicated in the murder of Paul Morasca, who was found in his own apartment his body covered with signs of torture, hog tied such that the movements of his body would ultimately suffocate him. Morasca's girlfriend told police that he spent the final days of his life terrified that he was being pursued by a CIA hitman named Jason Smith, later discovered to be an alias for Phil Thompson.

In 1983, Thompson received a life sentence on kidnapping and robbery charges, marking the end of his protection. Later, in 2003, DNA evidence found him guilty of the brutal murder of 21-year-old Betty Cloer in 1971. At the trial, a detective said: ''there are at least 8 to 10 other murders that we know of... there is in fact some information that suggests he was an operative who was given a lot of leeway.''

UCLA campus shootout - FBI agitation led to the shootout on the UCLA campus between the LA chapter of the Black Panthers and Ron Karenga's United Slaves Organization, which left Panthers John Huggins and Bunchy Carter dead; and the raid on Fred Hampton's apartment in search of illegal weapons that resulted in Hampton's assassination by Chicago police.

The SLA (Symbionese Liberation Army) - Spoiler: they were feds positioned to make left wing and pro black groups look bad; people died because of them.

Ruby Ridge - In 1992, survivalist, Randy Weaver was entrapped by an undercover ATF informant to sell illegal short-barreled shotguns. He missed a court date due to a clerical error on a notice, prompting a federal arrest warrant, so a fire-fight broke out at his cabin after the family dog alerted his family to US Marshals in the woods. Weaver’s 14-year-old son, Samuel was killed in the initial exchange, starting an 11 day stand-off. FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi shot and killed Randy's wife, Vicki Weaver, while she stood behind the front door holding her infant baby. Randy Weaver and family friend Kevin Harris were also wounded by sniper fire before surrendering.

Gene warfare - In a report called Rebuilding Americas Defenses, former US Assistant Secretary of Defense and dual Israeli citizen Richard Perle AKA the Prince of Darkness, presented ideas about: ''advanced forms of biological warfare that can target genotypes may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool.''

Civilian Assassinations

Karen Silkwood - Between 1944 and 1974, the US government sponsored thousands of human radiation experiments with additional funding from universities such as Vanderbilt University and UC Berkeley. Lab technician, Karen Silkwood testified to the AEC about having been contaminated at the Kerr-McGee. Later in 1974 she assembled documentation to back up her claims. Unfortunately, on her way to meet with a journalist, she was run off the road and killed. Even though her family confirmed that she had taken the binder with her to give to someone at the meeting, it was no where to be found at the site of the crash. Skid-marks from her car were present on the road, suggesting she was trying to get back onto the road after being pushed from behind; they also found damage on the rear of her vehicle which had not been present before the crash. According to author Richard Rashke, investigators who looked into Karen's death and the plant operations received constant anonymous death threats, some even being physically assaulted; one of her investigators disappeared and another allegedly committed suicide shortly before she was set to testify against the Kerr-McGee plant.

Dorothy Legarreta - Dorothy Legarreta was a lab technician at the Crocker laboratory, which was working on the Manhatten project. She was contaminated from having to smash glassware used to feed test animals fed radioactive materials. One of her children died of leukemia; she herself had to have a thyroid tumor removed. Because of this, she founded the National Association of Radiation Survivors in 1982, which later filed a FOIA request with the Department of Energy, obtaining documents which confirmed that the government had been experimenting on un-consenting humans with radiation for years. Like Karen Silkwood, Dorothy Legarreta's car ran off the road killing her. Her briefcase full of top secret government documents was missing from her vehicle, even though someone had written down the briefcase as having been found on the accident report; the tow truck driver said that it had been thrown away because it was badly damaged, which is evidence tampering and is illegal.

Gary Webb - Gary Webb, a reporter for the San Jose Mercury News began to expose Iran-Contra before it was official. He uncovered overwhelming evidence that in the early 80s the main supplier of Freeway Ricky Ross's cocaine distribution network was buying cocaine from the CIA backed Contras in Nicaragua, purchasing 10 to 15 kilos a week from them by 1983, and selling it through the LA Bloods, fanning out to cover most of the US. Webb had his career ruined by the media; following death in a motel room was ruled a suicide, although both the coroner and his family disagreed.

Boys on the tracks - There's evidence that two boys riding their bikes in Arkansas were disposed of after witnessing an Iran-Contra drug transfer; as well as many others who had knowledge of the truth about their deaths.

Michael Hastings - Michael Hastings was an American journalist who covered the Iraq War in Newsweek and later wrote a profile in Rolling Stone for General Stanley McChrystal, which led to the general's resignation from his command in Afghanistan. Mere hours before the fiery car crash that took his life, Hastings sent an email to friends and colleagues urging them to get legal counsel if they were approached by federal authorities: “Hey [redacted] the Feds are interviewing my 'close friends and associates,'... Perhaps if the authorities arrive 'BuzzFeed GQ', er HQ, may be wise to immediately request legal counsel before any conversations or interviews about our news-gathering practices or related journalism issues.”

Non-lethal

Watts Writers Workshop Fire - In 1973, the FBI directed one of their informants, named Darthard Perry, to burn down a community theater project in Oakland because it was associated with black radical groups like the Panthers.

Ray McGovern beating - In 2011, 71-year-old ex CIA annalist and peace activist, Ray McGovern abruptly left a Hillary Clinton speech in silent protest as she accused Iran of suppressing political dissent. Ironically, this prompted her security detail to violently beat him up, on camera and wrestle him to the ground as she continued her speech.

Equalities Act - In the UK, you can get fined and even go to prison for up to 7 years for posting on social media or saying something which a minority interoperates as hate-speech. Ironically this was part of the Equalities Act, even though nobody gets nabbed for anti-white hate speech or a harsher sentence for an anti-white hate-crimes.

Dr. Rahmeh - A victim of the Equalities Act is Palestinian-British doctor, Rahmeh Aladwan, (Dr. Rahmeh) who has been jailed 5 times for criticizing Israel online.

Adnan al-Bursh - In 2024, the Israelis tortured Gazan surgeon, Dr. Adnan al-Bursh, to death at Al-Awda hospital. When his friend, Ghassan Abu-Sittah tried to go to Germany to talk at a pro Palestine event, they told him at passport control that he was banned from entering Germany for the month of April. The next month he was invited to the senate by the Green Party to testify, when he tried to get passed customs they told he was banned fro one year from the Schengen zone in Europe.

Richard Medhurst - Anti-Israel commentator; held in Heathrow airport for 24 hours and interrogated.

Sarah Wilkinson - Pro Palestine Journalist. Arrested and raided in the UK for content posted online.

Official Secrets Act - The Official Secrets Act in the UK makes it illegal for people to talk about something. It was used to cover up the Knowl View pedo ring with MP, Cyril Smith.

NHS infected blood cover-up - The Infected Blood Inquiry's final report revealed that over 30,000 people in the UK were infected with HIV and Hepatitis C through contaminated blood products, concluding the scandal was a decades-long cover-up by the Government and NHS.

BNP and PA - In the UK, if an actual nationalist party gets to popular the government will just ban it from elections, like with the BNP, which had 6.2% of the total vote during the 2009 European Parliament elections. It's spiritual successor, Patriotic Alternative, was also banned.

Debanking - Head of PA, Mark Collet and associate Laura Towler had their bank accounts shut down by Santander around the same time. The bank closures left them without access to their funds or clear explanations for the action.

Julian Assange - Wikileaks founder, Julian Assange, spent over five years in prison and two years under house arrest after being entrapped into having sex without a condom in Sweden, which counts as rape there.

Pavel Durov - Telegram is a private messaging app known for its tolerance of free speech. Recently the App's founder Pavel Durov was arrested in France and potentially faces 10 years for operating a platform complicit in CP and drug trafficking. Facebook and Twitter have been found guilty of the same thing, however you don't see Zuckerberg or Dorsey standing trial. The real reason Durov was targeted relates to free speech. Three days before Durov's arrest, it was reported that anti-Israel hackers have stolen gigabytes of Israeli intelligence and posted it on Telegram. Telegram refused Israel's request to censor them. There is reason to suspect that Pavel was set up, as he was arrested when his plane made an unexpected stop in France, apparently for fuel. Data from Flightradar24 shows that Pavel tried to divert his plane upon realizing he had been set up, before it continued on its course to Paris. Durov was travelling with Russian streamer and Crypto Coach Yulia Vavilova, who can be seen with him before his plane left. Her social media posts alone were enough to have exposed his whereabouts. Vavilova has disappeared since Durov's arrest and seems to have deleted her social media. Her family say they cannot reach her.

US Liberty survivors - Survivors of the USS Liberty were threatened with imprisonment "or worse". They gave captain McGonagle a Medal of Honor as compensation, but it wasn't presented to him by the president, and the senate records and MoD society recorded that it was earned in Vietnam, without any specific further details. An internal memo reveals that Johnson was advised to hand the ceremony over the the DoD, due to the nature and sensitivity of the award.

San Marcos - Unlike every other municipality in Texas, San Marcos, withheld Israel aid to instead fix pot holes and perform public services, so governor Abbot threatened to withhold funding from them.

Egypt - Egypt is an actual police state with Western backing. It has free speech on paper, but you will be imprisoned without charge or go missing for speaking against Israel or doing anything pro-Palestine.

State-enforced Zionism - In the mid 2000s, activist groups around the world concerned with Palestinian human rights took up the BDS (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions) movement, which aimed to encourage public and private sector boycots, divestment, and sanctions targeted at the Israeli government.

Israel's proxies in US have spent the last two decades implementing a series of state level laws called anti-BDS laws which seek to prevent any individual or business participating in BDS from contracting with state governments. Typically, these laws require anyone contracting with the government to sign a pledge promising that they have never and will never boycott Israel, and ban anyone who's ever participated in BDS from receiving any government investment of any kind. As of 2024, at least 40 states have passed anti-BDS laws; in many, this has resulted in college professors, state government employees, and even paid guest speakers at public universities being forced to sign written pledges promising that they aren't participating in BDS in order to get hired or paid.

In 2017, victims of Hurricane Harvey in Dickinson, Texas, who applied for disaster relief funds were required to sign a pledge promising not to boycott Israel before they could receive financial aid from their own state government to repair their damaged homes.

University protests crackdown - In 2019, Trump signed an order redefining Judaism as a "nationality" under Title VI, so the Department of Education could investigate schools for "anti-Jewish discrimination" if they permit pro-Palestinian advocacy or BDS-related events. 

In 2025, Trump threatened to de-fund middle east studies at universities if they're not pro Israel. Under Trump, the Combating BDS Act of 2023 (Federal) was passed, allowing state and local governments to divest from or prohibit contracting with entities engaging in BDS. He also signed an executive order in 2025 that expanded his 2019 order, directing federal agencies to use a broad definition of antisemitism to investigate universities. As of 2025, over 300 student visas have been revoked for participation in pro-Palestinian activism. Trump pledged to "find and deport" any "resident aliens" or "Hamas sympathizers" involved in campus protests. Former Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and detained for expressing his right to free speech. Other 2025 policies require universities to monitor and report activities by international students and staff considered antisemitic.

Eden Deckerhoff - 23-year-old college student who lightly shoved a Jew's shoulder for wearing an IDF shirt, causing him to reel back as if assaulted. Despite the whole incident being recorded, the Jew claimed she told him, ''your family needs to die''. Deckerhoff was charged with battery and Canary Mission made a profile for her.

Family Planning - In the 1970s, under the Family Planning Act approved By George Bush Sr., up to 50% of Native American women of childbearing age were targeted for sterilization through lying or coercion. At the same time, mothers of white children were told that their babies had died, so they could be sold to rich families looking to adopt. Pro-wrestler, Ric Flair discovered that he was one of these children and wrote about it in his book.
