The Left-Right Divide is a LIE: James Corbett on Upists vs. Downists

The Phony Left-Right Divide

• 💡 The concept of a strict left-right political divide is presented as a phony game designed to control the masses.
• 🎯 This division is orchestrated by the "uppists", a small elite or handful of billionaires who truly control things, while everyone else is grouped together.
• 🔑 The book highlights the idea that political parties should be nearly identical to prevent significant policy shifts, giving the illusion of choice.

The "Upists" and Control

• 💰 The "uppists" are described as a cabal or society that aims to control everything, a practice that has been ongoing for a long time.
• 🎭 Political actions, including fighting oligarchy by figures like Bernie Sanders and AOC, are framed as performance art rather than genuine efforts to dismantle elite control.
• 🤝 Both major political parties are seen as being in league with corporations and the military-industrial complex, failing to address core issues like affordable healthcare for workers.

The "Up-Down" Dimension

• 🌌 The traditional left-right political spectrum is likened to a two-dimensional space, limiting understanding.
• 🚀 Introducing an "up-down" dimension reveals a clearer political landscape: authoritarians seeking centralized power (up) versus those wanting decentralized power to the individual and local levels (down).
• 🔍 This new dimension helps identify that the true oppressors are the people at the top, not one's neighbors who may hold different political views.

Performance Art and Manipulation

• 🎭 The political system is compared to professional wrestling or The Matrix, where hardships are introduced to make the system seem realistic and keep people invested.
• 🇺🇸 The example of the Panama Canal deal is used to illustrate how deals benefiting elites (like BlackRock) are masked by nationalist rhetoric ("America First").
• 🤝 The manipulation often involves directing anger towards those lower on the economic ladder, rather than the powerful elite at the top, as seen in discussions around immigration and political polarization.

C15 and Long-Term Health

• ✨ The video briefly introduces C15, an essential fatty acid discovered recently, claimed to be superior to Omega-3s for cell health.
• 🔬 Studies suggest C15 strengthens cells, improves mitochondrial function, and protects against free radicals, leading to better metabolic, liver, and heart health.
• 💊 Fatty15 is presented as a supplement to replenish C15 levels, repair cells, and restore long-term health.
