The point of this blog is to share my thoughts about what it means to be a living an outdoor life. A "gumby" is an beginner climber.

Cui Bono
Cui Bono is latin for the question "who benefits?"
It's a question that I ask myself very often. I asked it when I read about how some scientists and other people who disagreed with the conclusions made by the World Health Organisation or the Centre for Disease Control have been smeared by Google, Twitter, the Corporate Media and untold amounts of politicians. Who benefits from the silencing of dissenting voices. Why it appears that it would be Big Pharma and the financial beneficiaries from their lobbying efforts. Silencing scientists so that citizens will agree to have still another "vaccine" injected into their bodies. Not just silencing, but causing people to lose their jobs if they don't get a shot.
I ask the question when I watch the Corporate news push for a war in the Ukraine. They conveniently leave out why Russia is afraid of NATO weaponry being placed so close to their border. They ignore the history of Armies invading Russia from Western Europe. And why are they so forcefully encouraging a war. even one that may become a nuclear holocaust ? Why, for money of course. A war means Raytheon, General Dynamics and the rest of the Industrial Military Complex will reap trillions in profits.
I ask the question when I consider why Corporations and Governments state out loud that all citizens should have a digital passport. Who benefits from forcing citizens to have their medical, employment, financial and other personal information placed in a digital passport? Control of course. Control over how you spend your money and where you spend it. Control over where or how far you travel and what form of transportation you use. Whether you are even allowed to travel anywhere beyond your living quarters and you work location. Governments and Corporations desire absolute control over citizens for money and to achieve their goals for what they believe to be a "perfect world." This control allows the ruling elite to determine what food you eat, what books you read, what recreation you can enjoy. Absolute control over citizens by absolutely corrupt politicians and corporatists is the ultimate benefit for these monsters.
Citizens are increasingly becoming distrustful of institutions. The FBI is no longer trusted because it conspired with the Democrat candidate for President to accuse a candidate of collusion with Russia. The NSA and CIA are distrusted because we've learned that those agencies are spying on citizens. Representatives in Congress aren't trusted because they engage in insider trading and tax evasion with no consequences unlike ordinary citizens. The list of distrusted institutions seems endless and it is understandable that many citizens feel a sense of despair and that there is nothing they can do to fight the tide of corruption.
The first step in fighting this form of terror is to ask "who benefits" when presented with any proposal, story or program by these so-called elites. Revolting against this tyranny starts with a simple question, Cui Bono?
Once people have taken this first step than the snowball that turns into an avalanche for truth starts rolling down the mountain.
CUI Bono !
