Moolah Boodle Lucre Simoleons
Wrong Kind of Green Jul 22, 2014 Foundations, Non-Profit Industrial Complex, Whiteness & Aversive RacismWall Street’s vertical integration of controlling consciousness is based on five components: ownership of media, fabrication of news, integration of advertising with state propaganda, financing of foundations and brokerages, and co-option of NGOs. While many well-meaning people are channeled into the latter by the concerted collaboration of all the former, the corporate agenda that determines the policies, practices and projects of these NGOs is anything but benign.
Indeed, the distractions, distortions and deceit promoted by the scoundrels, malefactors and curs — working on behalf of Wall Street villains — to mesmerize the naive in order to lead them astray, pose a lethal threat to Indigenous Peoples and their desperate movement of liberation. Pretending otherwise, in order to coddle the credulous, accomplishes nothing noble. Indeed, it only perpetuates misperceptions that urgently need to be shattered.
Two months from now, in New York City, the Wall Street/NGO convergence around climate change, Indigenous Peoples human rights, and corporate derivative philanthropy, promises to be one of the super spectacles of the decade. Shining a light on that shadowy affair is something that simply has to be done. Unfortunately, there is no painless way of doing that, for it is way past time for an awakening.
Bedlam in Gotham, meanwhile, is going to be a three-ring circus:
- September 20-21 People’s Climate Change March
- September 22-23 World Conference on Indigenous Peoples
- September 24-26 World Summit on Indigenous Philanthropy
All the Ford and Rockefeller PR puppets from the non-profit industrial complex will be swarming for media attention to keep those grants flowing. Moolah, boodle, lucre, simoleons–a love fest for compromised NGOs, philanthropic brokerages and corporate foundations.
ICs position on the brokerages and foundations undermining the Indigenous Peoples Movement is non-negotiable: IC opposes the philanthropic system of assimilating Indigenous Peoples; this is core IC policy.
These editorials illustrate that policy in more detail:
- Fording the River
- Dependence Limits Strategies
- Shaming the Rich and Powerful
- Degrees of Evil
- Theatre of the Absurd
- Corporate Social Responsibility
- Here Come the COPPs
The following definitions might be unsettling, but nevertheless useful:
CULTURE
Artistic and intellectual customs and achievements of a particular civilization. Refined appreciation of this.
IMBECILE
Person of abnormally weak intellect, esp. an adult with a mental age of about five.
CULTURE of IMBECILES
Ideological absence in which advertising has become the only active factor, overriding any preexisting critical judgment or transforming such judgment into a mere conditioned reflex. Inability to develop any political consciousness
