Jackals and Giraffes: The Weapon of Non-Violent Communication

The terms ‘violence’ and ‘non-violence’ exist as almost an artificial dichotomy that can be manipulated by playing one against the other. We’ve been conditioned to view both functions (linguistically) as separate and at this stage of American discourse, not equal. Since these are the ‘rules of the game’ (because in all honesty, it’s a well-blended, non-dialectic set of techniques that truly works and ultimately can’t be planned for), we’ll still use these two popular terms for discussion to make things simple.
Violence is defined as ‘aggressive physical action’ or force used to cause physical damage or injury.
Non-violence (which is incorrectly described by Wikipedia as a ‘Sanskrit’ word) is a form of perceivable ‘non-action’ (considered ‘harmless’) or mental manipulation that plays on the feelings and sympathies of others, in order to affect changes in line with the non-violent actor’s agenda.
Modern non-violent philosophy can be traced to such luminaries at Gene Sharp, who was often employed by the military (yes the military), to use non-violent methods to topple governments. [Ref]

MUST WATCH — Nonviolent Communication, Pt. 2 “From the Fabians, thru MKULTRA, to Today.” #230 w/Bill Joslin
via Gnostic Media
May 30, 2015
Episode 230 is an interview with Bill Joslin, his seventh appearance, titled: “Nonviolent Communication, Pt. 2 “From the Fabians, thru MKULTRA, to Today.”. This episode is being released Saturday, May 29, 2015, and was recorded May 18.
Bill Joslin at an early age developed a fascination with mind and awareness. Subsequently he spent 16 years studying Bonpo, Nyingma Buddhist and Taoist practices. He spent a year in Asia interviewing Buddhist monks in Laos, Cambodia, Nepal; Taoist practitioners in Indonesia, and Bonpo priests in Northwest Nepal, comparing practices as taught in the west with the original monasteries and traditions from which the teachings originated. Nine years ago, Bill was asked by a number of people to counsel them with mediation practices they were having difficulty with and not finding aid from their current teachers. From a sense of responsibility Bill then went through a process of questioning every aspect of meditative knowledge he had gained over those years, essentially applying critical thinking to spiritual practices. In short order the illusion of meditation, spiritual teachers, and philosophical frameworks dissolved and a concise, non-mystical view of mind, self and world emerged with simple clarity. Meditation and spiritual guru-ship is an ancient form of control, the residue of which we live with today.
Professional Protesters make their way into legitimate causes by providing organization and training to sincere people. Once installed into the cause they then high jack the activities – marginalize or radicalise the participants. NVC is a core subject in activist training.

[Potent News editor’s note: Please take this Nonviolent Communication with a grain of salt.
I was given a tip by a Potent News reader (named Ryan Elson from dissembling.org) who basically informed me that Tides Canada provides training which includes programs derived from individuals involved in “Nonviolent Communication”, and “The Haven Institute”. Tides Canada is partly funded by George Soros. We all know how much of a criminal Soros is.
Here’s an excerpt from the Tides Canada website:
“The Inner Activist is a program designed to help change makers, social entrepreneurs, leaders and activists be radically more effective in their life-serving work.
The curriculum was developed by prominent activists, trainers and educators from six different personal development organizations that include: Learning as Leadership, The Haven Institute, Non Violent Communication, The Process Institute, The Work That Reconnects and Anima Leadership.
People who take our programs get up close and personal with who they really are and how their inner experience drives their behaviour – from their core issues, triggers and ego diversions to getting in their own way. They learn how to work from their source and noble goals. These new skills, through coaching and mentoring, are then applied to developing important and meaningful alliances and building sustainable social change practices.”
Also, when I saw this video of Marshall Rosenburg, the creator of Nonviolent Communication, I noticed the words “Teilhard de Chardin” in the video description and recalled that Teilhard influenced Terrence McKenna, as we learned from Jan Irvin’s research. By the way, Marshall’s initial line of reasoning in the video also didn’t resonate with me and I may expand on this later. The Teilhard connection is interesting since it, as we saw earlier from Irvin’s research, has to do with the piltdown hoax that paved the way for McKenna’s stoned ape theory, a theory which Irvin’s research indicates is actually ultimately propaganda that lulls us into a new dark age. Also noteable, once you get to part 3 of that Marshall Rosenburg video it starts to have an Agenda 21 collectivist stench to it, again reminiscent of McKenna’s “archaic revival”.
Anyway, I also recalled that Irvin mentioned that McKenna was part of the Esalen Institute and I was surprised to see “Esalen” also pop up in the other link that the Potent News reader gave me, which was this PDF article about “Hollyhock” and in it we also see the name “The Haven Institute” pop up which is another organization that Soros’ Tides Canada’s “Inner Activist” program derives its trainers from, as I’ve learned from Ryan Elson. (UPDATE: Since I posted the link for that PDF and brought it to Irvin’s attention, hollyhock.ca removed it from their website but fortunately Irvin was able to save a copy here prior to its removal).
Ryan also informed me that Hollyhock is run by Joel Soleman’s wife and Joel Soloman is on the board of directors at Tides Canada. When I looked into Hollyhock I found out they are pushing the carbon scam, which also is conveniently congruent with Agenda 21.]
