In ‘The Rise of the Megamachine: Lewis Mumford’s Prophetic Warning for the Digital Age’, the author, Thoughts from the Shire writes:
The Five Pillars of the Modern Megamachine
In his second volume, The Pentagon of Power, Mumford outlined five key components that sustain the modern megamachine:
Technology: The physical tools and infrastructure that enable mass production, surveillance, and control.
Science: The body of knowledge that legitimises technological advancements and justifies their use, often divorced from ethical considerations.
Bureaucracy: The administrative machinery that coordinates and enforces compliance within the system, ensuring its smooth operation.
Military Power: The ultimate enforcer of the megamachine, capable of suppressing dissent and protecting the system’s interests.
Economics: The financial systems that drive production and consumption, turning individuals into perpetual consumers and debtors.
Together, these elements form an interlocking system that prioritises efficiency, control, and centralisation over human well-being and freedom.
We saw a textbook example of such a system, in Nazi Germany. Notoriously known for their efficiency, the Nazi’s utillised IBM technology to enhance the potency of the regime’s killing machine.
Mumford on Hitler:

“The Need to establish quickly the permanent supremacy of his megamachine drove Hitler to seek to achieve by war what he could probably have accomplished, with a little patience by terror and corruption alone…” (emphasis added - JB)
Lewis Mumford
The video presentation ‘Technocracy, The Trilateral Commission & The Guiding Force Behind the WEF Explained’, deconstructs today’s most dangerous modern megamachine. How the players act to astroturf the dark lords agenda, and create consensus is easily seen here.
We have seen from the last four years, how easily this machine can co-ordinate it’s players to manipulate institutions, governments and public policy. One of the aims of this cartel, is to destroy governments, public institutions, and with it the legal system. These traitors undermine confidence in our institutions from within, to create dissatisfaction, and prepare the population for soft colour revolution.
Matija Seric writing for Eurasian Review:
The world we live in is changing more and more from day to day and so are the means of political struggle. Conquering power by military means is to some extent obsolete because people no longer have the will to die in the trenches like they used to. Classic wars are expensive and long and are being replaced by more subtle ways of conquering a certain area. One of the most important is the colored revolution. Under the guise of a democratic uprising, the removal of an unskilled government or a coup d’etat is actually being carried out.
Most often, external powers (without exception, the West) sponsor, plan, organize and implement “revolutions”. The role of external forces in colored revolutions is crucial and without them they cannot arise. These are revolutions mostly in name only. In fact, it is a sophisticated form of warfare, often an international conflict, although the legal profession does not (yet) recognize it as such.
Thoughts from the Shire states:
Mumford’s call for an organic society echoes contemporary movements that seek to build resilient, local communities, adopt sustainable technologies, and resist the dehumanising forces of globalisation and technocracy.
And here is where we must exercise extreme caution. These operatives use honey to lure the disillusioned and unsuspecting into their trap, and what sounds like resistance can be just another trap.
These monsters have demonstrated the depth of their depravity and deceit. Of course they will come, wolves in sheeps clothing to offer ‘solutions’; that are just more chains.
We already have the means we need to resist this program. Those intent on getting rid of the government will say it is hopeless. But then, what actual things have they tried before reaching this conclusion?
I will follow this up in the near future, with civil, yet effective, ways to resist.
Blessings,
