I will never look at the world in the same way again ZEITGEIST?

Question

Today I woke up thinking the world was running OK.

After being bed ridden by chest pains i started exploring the internet and found this video.

It outlines the problems with societies with TRUE FACTS and not made up theories.

There is something seriously wrong with this world and if we dont realise what is going on and take a stand we will end up in a one world government with all of our 'liberties' taken away.

For example, who pays income tax in the USA?

Did you know there is actually no law that states you have to do this. Instead the Central bank of America is literally taking away 3 months pay from YOU straight into their own pockets.

I used to think all of this was made up bullshit, but watching this video has seriously opened up my eyes and it upset me.

I almost gave up after the first 5 minutes because it sounded so S****y and farfetched. But please for your sake keep watching, at least for another 20 minutes.

Answer 1

Finally, some people are starting to wake up to the realities of the current world we face, and what lies in wait for us.

Answer 2

If you mean WILL you be able to look at the world the same way again?, the answer is no.

Once awake, you will never return to your slumber.  There is too much at stake and too little time to act. As a nation, we have been in mass slumber for 1/2 a century. Our freedom and democracy are now at stake because of that slumber.

Zeitgeist is entertainment designed to wake you up. It contains errors and because of that, people can mistakenly dismiss the entire film. It is a movie, not a documentary. It is silly how so people go to great lengths to "debunk" a movie. If it is all "conspiracy theory", why not just ignore it? People take the mistakes in Zeitgeist far too seriously. Can you think of any other movie subjected to such a high degree of scrutiny for its factual correctness?

The producer seems to assert that Christianity is merely an agent of social control. I disagree but respect his right to express that view. There are many web sites that debunk Part One. Do a Google search for "Zeitgeist Christianity debunk".

The message of part 1 is that there are people in positions of power and influence that are lying and attempting to control you. It was not necessary to attack Christianity to make that point (thereby insulting the majority of people of the free world). One need not look further than the corporate-controlled main stream media to find an agent of social control. If any of the topics in Zeitgeist Parts Two and Three are new to you, the reason for that is mass media censorship and brainwashing. The main stream media is not what it used to be, and not what many people believe it to be. It has become a propaganda machine for government and corporate interests. For more about that, see my answer here:-

Considering that, I believe it fair to state that the corporate media is an agent of social control in this year 2008.

Because of Zeitgeist producer's choice to use Christianity for the Part One message, I suspect the movie to be a trojan horse. See my answer here:-

Re Parts Two and Three:  9/11 and New World Order (global government) are connected although I'm not sure whether Zeitgeist gets that across effectively. If I were the producer and if I wanted to inform, I would have placed greater emphasis on the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission and how globalist organizations control foreign policy. See:-

http://faculty.maxwell.syr.edu/merupert/...

Read from CFR's web site and its publications (including about integrating North American, part of the global government plan), and connect the dots. It is plain to see that CFR stands for global government. As the globalists get closer to their global government aim, they become more open about it.

http://www.cfr.org/

For more insight, research globalist David Rockefeller (Honorary Chairman of the CFR and co-founder of the Trilateral Commission). New World Order is not about some cabal of Satanists plotting to control the world. It is about elites like Rockefeller pressing for one-world socialist government serving controlled by elites and corporations. They are well on their way to achieving that goal. The main stream media speaks little about it because the media is owned and controlled by CFR members and people & corporations that profit from globalization, war, and the war on terror.

There are so many theories about new world order that people overlook what is happening today, right now, before their very eyes. That is gradual implementation of global government and the dismantling of national sovereignty. There is more to say here about new world order. See my answer here:-

RE 9/11:  9/11 was either a false flag, or it was exploited like one. If we are to believe the government's official excuse that air defense and intelligence failures were honest mistakes, then why were people at the top not held accountable? If the government was a corporation, heads would have rolled and there would have been mass-firings, including the CEO. That did not happen after 9/11. Rather, people responsible for "mistakes" were promoted. The first order of business should have been addressing the reason for the failures and firing many people. Instead, the government chose to start the gradual and on-going undermining of the Constitution and creation of a surveillance state in America.

The Constitution and Bill of Rights are major impediments to the global government agenda. An excuse was needed to begin the dismantling process thereof, and 9/11 provided the perfect excuse. How handy was it that a single event also served (indirectly) to induce us to accept illegal war?

There is a great deal of compelling evidence for government foreknowledge and complicity in 9/11. Keep in mind that if the government was involved, it was not "the government". Rather, it was criminal elements inside the government and their associates outside the government. Most members of the government were honestly deceived. The corporate main stream media protects the criminals by muzzling the 9/11 story and painting anyone questioning it as a radical moron so as to divide the people and discourage any challenge to the official account of 9/11.

As 9/11 kicked the new world order agenda into high gear, I believe it more fruitful to focus 9/11 learning on "why" and "who benefited" rather than the "how was it done" theories. We may never know how it was done because much of the evidence was destroyed; however, a clear picture is now emerging as to who benefits and why it was exploited. To inspire some thought in that direction, research the neo-conservative group "Project for a New American Century" (in my sarcastic words called "Cheney & Co.") and its members' associations with the Bush Administration. Read their "manifesto" describing their geopolitical aspirations. It seems eerily familiar to what we see happening now.

Also watch Mike Ruppert's film about geopolitics, criminality in government, evidence of foreknowledge and exploitation of 9/11:-

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=...

Ruppert only briefly connects the dots to discuss global government then the film ends abruptly. Watch for that, otherwise you may mistakenly interpret his message as meaning the wars are merely about oil.

For greater insight into 9/11, it is important to know the flaws of the 9/11 Commission and its investigation. See Ray Griffin's film:-

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=...

To assist with analyzing the 9/11 Ommission Report, use the report mirror at "911 Research" site. The mirror exists to address the problem that the official report online is not presented in a way easy to evaluate. The mirror ties it all together with hyperlinks and commentary to note contradictions and omissions.

The Families of victims of 9/11 documented their frustrations with and disappointment in the 9/11 Commission in their film:-

I have an opinion about the Zeitgeist's take on the Federal Reserve and I keep that opinion to myself because, quite frankly, I wish to stay alive.

If you do your own research, be careful what you read.  There are staged government disinformation sites all over the web, designed to throw you. They discredit the truth movement by putting out ridiculous theories that are easily debunked (e.g. the "no planes theory" for 9/11). There are also paid agents all over the internet posing as users in forums like this one. Generally, if people presenting a web site are not willing to be named (and you cannot verify that they are real people), you might confirm what you read there from sites where owners do disclose who they are. Some of my Yahoo contacts discussed that issue recently when one of them noticed a suspected 9/11 disinformation site. See:-

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

For further self-research, first learn about the CFR and study PNAC and watch the Ruppert film.  Then research 9/11. A good site for 9/11 research is this well-sourced site:-

http://911research.wtc7.net/

Arab terrorism is real.  The terrorists hate us because of our foreign policy, not for our freedom and wealth. Our chances of being injured from terrorism are about the same as being struck by lightning, despite inadequate port and border security. If Arab terrorists wanted to launch a large scale attack here, there is nothing to stop them and that has been so since 2001, yet such attacks did not occur. Hmmm. Why then does the dismantling of civil liberties take precedence over securing borders and ports? For ports, the reason is that there is no real threat. For borders, the reason is the criminals pulling the strings in government WANT illegal immigration. Dissolving borders is on the agenda, first for North American union and later for new world order. That the left and right blame each other for failing on illegal immigration is just pageantry to forestall action. Neither side wants to resolve illegal immigration because both parties have been hijacked by globalist interests

Answer 3

This movie is pretty mainstream now - a lot of people have been talking about it for a long time. It's part of a wider movement because people are starting to question the motives of their governments as things descend into something approaching "constant war" & economic meltdown. Take a look, for example, at Naomi Klein's "Shock Doctrine" - this is another one that is a real eye-opener.

Answer 4

I watched this movie like 4 months ago. This changed my views completely...well not completely  but certainly MANY things. I'm still a believer in some kind of God but I don't believe in Catholocism/Christianity no more...I'm not into organized religions! LOL

My bf's brother is now into politics and it made him so pissed off!

This movie really does change people's views. It's kinda amazing, but I heard a lot of the sources could be a little off, but it makes sense right?

This movie isn't so good to show to close minded people.

Answer 5

Zeitgeist is probably one of the most disinformative documentaries of this year. I encourage you to research some of the claims yourself.

Let's take a look at what you cited...

- "Did you know there is actually no law that states you have to do this?"

Nonsense.

The Income Tax laws are codified in the U.S. Code. Check out:

http://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/index.php...

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/u...

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/u...

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/u...

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/u...

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/u...

The allegations come from some fringe groups whose arguments, though creative, have not really stood up in the courts.

For more detail on some of the income tax arguments, see:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_protest...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_protest...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_protest...

- "Instead the Central bank of America is literally taking away 3 months pay from YOU straight into their own pockets."

Two gross errors in a single statement.

The flim says that 35% of an average workers income goes to income tax. That is an exaggeration by a factor of almost 3. In 2005, IRS stats should the average filer paid about 12.45% of their income (which would not have counted non-filers who mostly did not pay any tax).

(Ref: http://www.taxfoundation.org/news/show/2...

That statement that all income tax goes to the Federal Reserve?

Just more nonsense that doesn't stand up with even the most basic of research.

Research for yourself:

A) Look up how much revenue comes from income tax. For 2006, it was $1.047T

(Ref: http://www.publicagenda.org/issues/factf... )

B) Look up how much interest is generated annually on the national debt. For 2006, it was $226B.

(Ref:  http://www.publicagenda.org/issues/factf...

C) Look up the budget of the Federal Reserve. For 2006, it was about $3B. (Ref: http://www.federalreserve.gov/generalinf... )

- Re: "I used to think all of this was made up bs"

Well, not all of it but certainly enough to seriously undermine the films credibility.
