BEHIND THE SCENES

The Year End Fund Drive kicks off on Tuesday, December 3 with a one day national pledge drive for the Pacifica Radio Archives
which will roll straight into the KPFK Fund Drive December 4 through December 18. Important goal for year's end: $266,000.





We will carry the restarted impeachment hearings with light fundraising with minimal interference as our goal.




"Fund Drive Schedule" means we will change things around depending on pledge calls or lack
thereof. Also we will usually be starting the Thom Hartmann Program a bit early so we don't have to edit out important news and commentary during fundraising.

1-2 The Gary Null Show 11/19


How to Save the Planet and Ourselves


Chris Hedges


If you read only one book this year, it should be Roger Hallam’s “Common Sense for the 21st Century: Only Nonviolent Rebellion Can Now Stop Climate Breakdown and Social Collapse.” Hallam’s lucid and concise book, which echoes Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense,”
says what many of us now know to be true but do not say: If we do not replace the ruling elites soon we are finished as a species. It is a cogent, well-argued case for global rebellion—the only form of resistance that can save us from ecosystem collapse and
human-induced genocide. It correctly analyzes the failure of environmentalist activists in groups such as 350.org to understand and confront global corporate power and thus make a meaningful impact as we barrel toward ecocide. “Common Sense for the 21st Century”
is a survival manual for the human species. “The corrupt system is going to kill us all unless we rise up,” Hallam, a co-founder of Extinction Rebellion, bluntly warns. The activism, protests, lobbying, petitions, appeals to the United Nations and misguided
trust in “liberal” politicians such as Barack Obama and Al Gore, along with the work of countless NGOs, have been accompanied by a 60% rise in global carbon dioxide emissions since 1990. The United Nations estimates this will be augmented by a 40% rise in
CO2 emissions in the next 10 years. Hallam, who has long been a part of the environmental movement, says of his past activism: “I was wasting my time.”

FUND DRIVE SCHEDULE




12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #1092–The Destabilization of China, Part 3





We begin with review of an article that was prominently featured in our last program.





In this article we note: the involvement of the NED with the leading individuals and institutions involved with the turmoil in Hong Kong; the networking between other U.S. “soft-power” intelligence fronts with the Hong Kong activists; the networking between
top Trump administration officials and the Hong Kong activists; the use of anti-Chinese slurs dating to the fighting between Japan and China prior to, and during, World War II; U.S. “Alt-right” involvement with the Hong Kong unrest; the meeting of a U.S. diplomat
with Hong Kong activists; the use of what–if it were used by people acting in the U.S.–rioting and terrorism by the crowds in Hong Kong; the violence used in Hong Kong includes throwing gasoline bombs at the police, setting fire to subway stations, attacking
passers-by and assaulting counter-protesters.





Underlying the turmoil in Hong Kong, the program sets forth the conflict between the financialized, laissez-faire economy of Hong Kong with the “state capitalist” system of China.





The former has led to an rent increase of roughly 300% over the last ten years, while wages stagnated. This has made Hong Kong the most expensive city in the world and led to a poverty rate of 20% of the island’s roughly 7 million citizens.





For all of its shortcomings, the “state capitalist” system of China has led to a decrease in the poverty rate from 88% in 1981 to 0.7% in 2015. (The figure comes from the World Bank, hardly a bastion of international Communist ideology.)





In that same context, the percentage of Chinese in the middle class has gone from 4% in 2002 to 31% today. (Again, the figures come from the World Bank, as well as the IMF and that well-known bastion of Marxist ideology and promulgation–the CIA’s analysis division.)





The economic plight of many in Hong Kong–the young in particular–has made them easy targets for regime-change tactics.


Of paramount significance in understanding the unrest in Hong Kong is the island’s role as an epicenter of economic crime. The extradition law which was the initial focus of the unrest would have enabled the extradition of malefactors for economic criminal
activity. For that reason, it was vigorously opposed by the Hong Kong business community and its U.S. allies.
