What was John F. Kennedy referring to when he said “a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy”?
Excerpt
For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence–on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations.
Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed. It conducts the Cold War, in short, with a war-time discipline no democracy would ever hope or wish to match.
Russian and Chinese communism
This could be as easily applied to the people who killed JFK
From his wording, I’d think it probably did/does.
With out any diligence this makes more sense and likely why they assassinated him.
Remember folks tupac was in killed in las vagas and killer was never found.
Brian Thompson the United Health Parasite was denied a claim to life in NYC and some how they found some rich Chad as a fall guy 🤡
Any guess as to what or who he was referring to specifically? Like, who is “they”?
Again talking out of my ass but the oligarchs who were in charge at during that time along with the spooks who colluded to kill him.
Speeches like these got them big mad.
Its like the business plot, we know rich people did a thing but the government covered it up so we won’t know what actually happened.
That the beauty of being the owner of the country. The state works for you even if you kill the president
Assuming he was telling the truth and he was right, it doesn’t sound like something that would have disappeared from the world any time soon. Which then makes me wonder if what he was referring to has anything to do with what’s happening today, cause there does seem to be a striking resemblance if we compare it to his description…?
How do you know that? Seriously asking.
In the quote he says he’s talking about the Cold War.
He makes reference to it, but also speaks of some kind of opposition from “around the world” that was working on “expanding its sphere of influence”. He also described this thing as operating in secret, not out in the open. Was Russia operating secretly? (I don’t know much about the Cold War.)
For those of us who lived through it, what he said was blatantly obvious at the time.
Makes sense, I was too young to remember most of it. Still, does his description not strike you as resembling what we see happening in the U.S. today?
I disagreed with it at the time and do again now… there’s no grand conspiracy; people are just depressingly predictable in how they respond to economic and cultural pressures. Some people recognize the trends and attempt to ride them or even control them (or stop them), but with a few notable exceptions, history tends to just roll on regardless — which can look to some as if there must be some cabal of puppet masters calling the shots.
Yes they were operating in secret. There are many examples of their infiltration, such as the Cambridge Five.
Ok, I didn’t know that. I was too young still to remember most of it.
Yes, both have been forms of authorities rules.
And in light of OP’s question. To me “they” are all the authoritarians; both the extreme left and right winged.
Said the normie almost reflexively without doing any critical thinking 🤡
I’m not going to debate you, but I will laugh at you.
