The Blue Screen of Death

The Blue Screen of Death

The Next Front in the Battle with Global Finance and its IT tentacles

Emanuel Pastreich

Independent Candidate for President

July 20, 2024

Large parts of the United States, and other places in the world, were paralyzed recently by a Microsoft outage that shut down communications for vital services, resulting in many monitors--that we are made dependent on--showing a blue screen of error—"of death,” or so they said.

There is every reason to believe that this outage was intentionally rigged up, and also intentionally exaggerated in the media, much as the fake COVID-19 pandemic was rigged up, and exaggerated—both crises are, after all, made of the same cloth.

What we were told is that a failed routine antivirus update caused a crash that stopped airplanes from flying, shut down banks, brought to a standstill hospitals and police stations, and even ended TV broadcasts. People dependent on smart phone applications to purchase services were also made aware of how dependent and powerless they have become.

The whole point of this outage was to remind you how powerless you are, to make you feel hopeless in the face of monopoly IT and monopoly capital.

The completely unreliable media, the tool of a horrific merger of global finance, private intelligence firms and IT bemouths like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Oracle, and Facebook, tell us that the failure was a result of a flaw in the update to the antivirus software provided to Microsoft by the cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike.

In a word, we face new form of virus-based psychological warfare like COVID-19, but this time the virus is back in the computer, but following the masterplan devised by our friend, Bill Gates, who first came up with idea of making money by creating viruses for the monopoly on system software he gained, through bribery and extortion, by imposing Windows system software on the world, and then selling people antivirus software to fight the viruses he created.

Sort of like making up viruses and then selling people vaccines that then require further medical treatment, no?

When CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz said that this was “human error,” and not a “cyber attack,” his main goal was to encourage passive and superficial thinking on the part of citizens, to render us foolish and unquestioning consumers with no rights.

The symbol of this cyber attack, that must be called a “human error” (just like a massive psychological operation must be called a “pandemic”) was the “blue screen of death,” a new term made popular overnight through the mass media in—yes, you guessed it—a massive psychological operation.

The term “blue screen of death” is meant to be an overt threat to all citizens from the IT dictatorship. They mean it. They say it in a light way as if it was just a passing bit of fun news, but that term “blue screen of death” is intended to linger in your mind as a threat.

I am not going to wait to see how this operation plays out, but rather, as candidate for president, as someone trying to organize real, not fake, resistance to the takeover of our society by the billionaires, I want to state what we need to demand and what we need to do right now.

We need to be in control, we the people, not the two parties, the prostitutes and pimps, not the celebrity clowns, jackals, and hyenas who are allowed to appear on television. If it is on TV, it is most likely fake.

As I made clear in this cartoon I drew in 2020, this sort of a hacking/bank freeze was among the cards held by the billionaires from early on. Having used up the other cards, it was inevitable that they would turn to this one.

The billionaires want you to be buried in the details of cyber security technology and IT policy and to completely miss what is going on here. If you go down that rabbit hole towards overwhelming data about irrelevant issues, you do so at your peril.

If the so-called experts are not talking about how these monopolies control access to information, manipulate us using images and repetitive patterns, dominate an artificial financial system that is detached from the real economy, and bribe politicians and public officials, and are instead just lecturing you about cybersecurity, data privacy, breaches, insider threats, intellectual property, compliance, and regulation, then you know you are being deceived.

I do not care how big and impressive the deceivers are. They are criminals plain and simple and they must be stopped at any cost.

This failure was no failure; it was a success. It was a shot across the bow aimed at citizens across the nation declaring,

“We control the means of communication, the nature of money, the means of transportation, all access to information, and the supply of food, water, and all other natural resources. That power grows from our control of computers and the internet, which we have forced you to become more and more dependent on. We are showing you that we can isolate you, even starve you to death, if we feel like it.”

If you follow their orders; if you cave into their implied threats, it will not be pretty. They have every intention of destroying you, or reducing you to slavery, in any case.

The response must start with understanding how they control the world, the billionaires, through their secret coup d’etat, a power grab that dates back to 2001, but which entered a new phase with the so-called “attempted assassination” (a real and a fake assassination attempt at the same time) and the demonic Republican National Convention calling out for blood and demanding loyalty to the king.

We must make concrete demands in accord with the Constitution, federal and state law, and basic human universal ethics.

We must demand that the air, the earth, the water, the natural resources from coal in the mountains, to the fish in the sea, belong to all of us, and they cannot be dominated by corporations and banks who buy off our government.

We must make this demand firmly, and express our willingness, in accord with the law and the Constitution, to seize the assets of the corporations and banks who are trying to take over our country, and our earth, illegally and immorally.

We must demand that the banks and financial institutions like Bank of America, BlackRock and State Street, and the IT firms like Microsoft, Google, Oracle, Facebook, and Amazon, who promoted the COVID-19 scam that killed millions and illegally destroyed the economy, must have their assets seized and their leadership arrested, and that their investors and owners, hidden behind trusts and funds, must be prosecuted. That demand, that action, is legal, ethical, and absolutely necessary. Once we have stripped them of their assets for their crimes, they will not be able to buy off politicians, policemen, or military officers, and they will not be able to hire expensive lawyers, lobbyists, and PR firms. They will be cut down to size and we will expose their full criminality without fear.  

We must end the promotion of automation, digital communication and information storage, the internet, and the use of credit cards and other forms of online finance. Going online is not a positive for human society in many cases, and can be destructive to communities and to the human mind at every level, while making society fragile and dependent on a limited source of energy that is controlled by big business.

There is no imperative to make things digital or electronic, and the costs of the energy used, the fragility of the systems for payment and communication that are forced on citizens by these multinational corporations---not American in any sense--are frightening.

We must go back to paper, to standard ways of keeping records, and of interacting with each other that do not make our society so fragile, so dependent on multinational corporations. We cannot let these IT powers alienate our citizens or dumb them down using intentionally rigged-up social media. We cannot allow them to use our money to create systems meant to render us passive, reactive and malleable in the hands of the rich and powerful.

Part of that process will involve the revealing of the illegal and immoral manner in which Microsoft created a monopoly that allows it to control our means of expression and communication at the most basic level in an existential attack on our lives via Windows.

Once that crime is exposed and punished, there will not be a “Microsoft” left around anymore. The criminal actions against the citizens undertaken by Google, Oracle, Amazon, Wal-Mart and others will also be exposed, granted that will require us to declassify all related materials.

Following the Constitution, federal and state law, and universal ethics, we are entitled to, we have no choice but to, declassify everything and to reveal the true tyranny that lords over us today. That means ceasing to worry about what we might become of us at some future date, and focusing on the ugly reality that confronts us here and now. 

I would be happy to share with all citizens the specifics of how my administration will end this threat from multinational corporations and banks, now merged with governments, and get back to a society in which energy is locally produced, in which electronic communication is not artificially promoted as a necessity, or imposed as a bogus “fourth industrial revolution,” reestablish a society wherein the economy is about people, money belongs to the people, and the continuity of ethics and institutions from the past is our moral duty.

That means that massive fragile electronically-based systems that are proprietary to multinational corporations must be declared illegal, as they truly are, and the power and control of the means of communication, of access to information, of production of energy and food, of manufacturing, distribution and sale of products, is returned definitively to the people in accord with the Constitution and the moral laws of humanity from ancient times.
