A Big Fat Lie

Saturated fat: 50 years of health advice is 'misguided'


I see this article as a 'damage limitation' piece.
The fact is that deliberate disinformation was inserted into the medical and mainstream media - AS CONTINUES TO BE THE CASE.
Very powerful (influentially connected and wealthy) international corporations operate an agenda of predation upon the population they are still trusted to be serving or servicing. This includes the media.
Of course most of involved have effectively invested their trust and their identity in the model that has either been corrupted or subverted - or has drifted along in a compartmentalised form of well intentioned assumptions that have become disconnected from what is actually going on in a very rapidly changing world.
The internet can be used to expand one's perspective - as can cultivating the inner life of mindfulness and insight. Both together one can uncover the information and paths in life that serve where you are at in your life right now - which is not the same for everyone any more than any one diet or exercise regime or intellectual pursuit, or entertainment.
What one can see as soon as the spell is broken, is that the agenda to make money out of us, is also an agenda to make us sick, is also an agenda to manage our sickness as a revenue stream. Now it may operate in part by looking the other way because one's career or reputation or privileges are on the line is one rocks the boat by speaking out or refusing to participate, and it may operate in part by a cynical philosophy in which if we don't get their first, the rivals will, but there is a deep and longstanding attack on Nature and on OUR nature, that is insane - even though there are confusions in our past by which many assumed a lower or evil nature had to be subjugated and controlled. Nothing so destructive as blind self righteousness. Wherever 'truth' is determined and accepted, there will rise the blindspot of distortion and denial and openings for manipulation and corruption by opportunists.

Oh and to be fair, we have collective accepted a mass managed society through our own demand for selective unconsciousness. I do not 'blame' corporates for responding to demand - but I do know that those seeking power work to get it by undermining or diminishing others.
