Sovereign Nations
Welcome to The Causes of Things, a podcast from Sovereign Nations. The 1st century BC poet Virgil stated, “Blessed is he who understands the hidden causes of things.” This statement is as brilliant today as it was 2,000 years ago.
Primarily narrated by Michael O'Fallon, The Causes of Things is didactic in nature featuring a collection of teaching series & lectures, some of which are recorded specifically for this podcast, and some that are from public lectures. The show will offer discussion and information concerning a variety of complex ideas: The philosophical presuppositions behind the ideas that are aggressively shaping our world, the answers to those challenging ideas, and the necessary historical, hierarchical structure of the world as represented through the lens of Judeo Christian belief.

After Light, Darkness | Public Occurrences, Ep. 77
In London, U.K. in October of 2019, I gave what was the most important speech of my life: After Light, Darkness.
The speech is available on our Sovereign Nations YouTube page: https://youtu.be/z8bxNOWFxm0
In that speech 3 years ago I explained that we were entering an age of actual informational and propaganda warfare where nothing that is presented to you as “news” or as “facts” could be trusted without processing claims through the scientific method and falsification.
I explained that the survival of western civilization itself would depend on our ability to preserve objective truth and reject subjective alchemy. I tried to warn everyone that day at Whitehall that this was not just another round of political theory: it was the subversive encroachment of a darkness that our generation has never experienced before.
I discussed the twin threats of critical race theory and intersectionality and how every pillar of our civilization would be deconstructed before our eyes if we did not act - with the mentality to win this battle over propaganda.
This was 2019. Only a few responded with any urgency.
And then 2020 happened; and all the warnings and urgings of the previous years were now relevant to the average man and woman.
In light of our current struggle in 2022 against misinformation and disinformation, I have taken out my notes from the old 2019 speech and provided a new context for our striving for light in what is now a sea of darkness.

The Cruel Reflexive Wheel | Public Occurrences, Ep. 76
Over the past several years, the entirety of humanity has been forced to endure massive cycles of reflexivity that, on each revolution of the wheel, has disrupted and dismantled our nation and western civilization.
Some of the reflexive cycles that we have experienced over the past few years :
-The world-wide lockdown that accompanied Covid
-The giant Black Lives Matter CRT push after the death of George Floyd
-The propaganda that centered around the results of the 2020 election
-The January 6th aftermath
-The enforcement of vaccine mandates
And after each of these cycles of reflexivity we have seen our world, and our perception of reality, degraded and our future put in the hands of authoritarian technocrats. Elected officials now rule with iron fists - with “safety” and “the common good” as the guiding principles for the next edict or the next declared emergency.
Corporations and financial institutions join in with the elected technocrats, doling out punishments and embargos on those that refuse to tow the fascist line.
How will we break out of this cruel wheel of what seems like a certain dystopian fate? How does mankind resist the coming night and fight against the darkness that is now encroaching on every side?
Join Michael O’Fallon as he explores the dangers and the opportunities that await all of us.

Public/Private Tyranny | Public Occurrences, Ep. 75
If you have noticed over the past several years, the leaders in punishing public officials, governments, and leaders have not been other nations but instead corporations and businesses that aggressively campaign against those leaders who “get out of line” of the intended goals of the World Economic Forum.
What you are witnessing is pure corporatism - otherwise known as fascism. And this fascistic move is compelled and buttressed by progressive governments who are more loyal to the corporate partners of the World Economic Forum than they are to their constituents.
While in the past we celebrated private entrepreneurs who strove with the individual spirit as exemplified by the Atlas Society and the followers of Rand, what we see now are the co-mingling of an oligarchical technocracy which crushes dissent and discards cognitive liberty.

Hate Week: Russia | Public Occurrences, Ep. 74
In George Orwell’s 1984, he describes a yearly event that would necessitate the attention and participation of all of the citizens of Oceania: Hate Week. Of course, Hate Week was a yearly obligation that accompanied the daily obligation of participating in “Two Minutes Hate” where the citizens of Oceania had to focus all of their pent-up rage, anger, and hate towards Eurasia and East Asia - and also at the arch villain of Ingsoc, Emmanuel Goldstein.
In 2022, we are experiencing a modern manifestation of Orwell’s dystopian future and the object of hate, at least for this week, is Russia.
The destruction and lives torn apart in Ukraine is not a result that anyone should be celebrating or supporting. But, as always, we should be asking the question: what led to this horrible situation? And sadly, the only answers that you will be receiving are answers provided by the propaganda arm of the alliance of the United Nations, the World Economic Forum, NATO, the European Union and the Washington DC uniparty.
The answers from the Globalist Alliance are being delivered in the same fashion that you received during the reflexive pandemic and during Black Lives Matter's attempt at a soft color revolution: in the form of pure propaganda.
In this episode of Public Occurrences Both Foreign and Domestic, Michael O’Fallon clears away the fog of disinformation and misinformation to arrive at the very heart of the current global conflict.

The State of Our Disunion | Public Occurrences, Ep. 73
The nation endured the wandering, misspoken, veracity-lacking State of the Union last night delivered from our President Joe Biden.
It was difficult to find any objectively true claims throughout the entire message delivered to a combined Senate and House audience on Tuesday evening.
In fact, everything was nonsense: dangerous nonsense.
Join Michael O’Fallon as he reviews the State of Union Address to the Nation.

Historical Amnesia | Public Occurrences, Ep. 72
Since our inception seven years ago, one of the primary goals of Sovereign Nations was to ensure that we made our audience aware of the strategies and techniques used to short circuit all thought and abilities for men and women to use the process of falsification when discerning truth from fiction.
In the past, we have discussed the use of the “fertile fallacy” to disrupt societal and social trends and to redirect momentum towards fallacious, manufactured “crisis moments” that demand the attention of everyone. This fertile fallacy is then propelled into the eyes and ears of the public eye through the process of propaganda and ultimately, reflexivity.
The entirety of the world and more specifically the United States has been manipulated by several fertile fallacies over the past four years, with each fertile fallacy disrupting and dismantling our constitutional system, our economic systems, and our ability to have reasonable, fact-based discourses centered around the pursuit of objective truth. As opposed to a pursuit of objective truth, we find ourselves, once again, heading down the path of a subjective narrative that will lead to the operational success of those that wish to control our lives.
Thinking back just three weeks ago, our main focus and attention in the world was:
1. The plight of the trucker protests in Canada against tyrannical overreach
2. The fallacy of the lockdowns all over the world and the international demand for liberty and freedom
3. The excising of Critical Social Justice from our schools, legislation, and churches
And now with the incursion of Russian into Ukraine, nearly every ounce of energy and attention is being focused on Russia.
Funny how that happens…
We must be aware of the signs, the techniques, and the processes that are being used to manipulate our lives.

The Manchurian Candidate | Public Occurrences, Ep. 71
The award winning 1962 film, The Manchurian Candidate, tells the story of a United States armed services member who was captured during the Korean War, tortured and brainwashed by the Chinese Communist Party, and released back to the United States where he becomes the unwitting assassin in an international communist conspiracy.
Much like in The Manchurian Candidate, there are politicians, cooperative executives and religious leaders throughout the world who have pledged allegiance to either the Chinese Communist Party or to the World Economic Forum.
In today’s show, we will discuss these Manchurian or Davos Candidates and begin the process of understanding the threats that we are all facing from those that have supranationalism in their plans.

Build Back Better | Public Occurrences, Ep. 70
Politicians, corporate CEOs and religious leaders alike have all been proclaiming a phrase that has become both a mantra for a progressive move into the 4th Industrial Revolution and as well a framework of policy throughout previously sovereign nations throughout the world. The phrase is “Build Back Better.”
A few of those incorporating this phrase are listed below:
Justin Trudeau, PM Canada
(https://twitter.com/justintrudeau/status/1426973485423857664)
“We’ve had your back, and now it’s time to hear your voice. You need to choose how we finish the fight against COVID-19 and build back better. That’s what #elxn44 is about.”
Boris Johnson, PM United Kingdom
(https://www.voanews.com/a/europe_g-7-summit-kicks-build-back-better-message/6206906.html)
“Building back better, building back greener, building back fairer, and building back more equal and in a more gender-neutral and perhaps more feminine way.”
Pope Francis, Pontifex Maximus, Vatican
(https://www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/messages/pont-messages/2020/documents/papa-francesco_20201203_messaggio-disabilita.html)
“May our common desire to “Build Back Better” give rise to new forms of cooperation between both civil and ecclesial groups and thus build a solid “house” ready to withstand every storm and capable of welcoming people with disabilities, because built on the rock of inclusion and active participation.”
Klaus Schwab, Founder, World Economic Forum
(https://youtu.be/YkcaeaD45MY)
“It's a big effort to, some would say, to Build Back Better. We would say to have a Great Reset.”
Joe Biden, President, United States of America
(https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/11/19/statement-by-president-joe-biden-on-passage-of-the-build-back-better-act-in-the-u-s-house-of-representatives/)
“Building back better means an updated social contract that treats American workers and working families as essential at all times, not just times of crisis.”
So what exactly is the “Build Back Better” strategy that all of these world leaders are talking about? And secondly, what environment was necessary before “Build Back Better” could be implemented world-wide?
Michael O’Fallon explores this topic on today’s edition of Public Occurrences Both Foreign and Domestic.

They're All In This Together | Public Occurrences, Ep. 69
Over the early days of the reflexive pandemic the corporate and governmental call to the people of the world was: "We're all in this together."
And while this general call to unify as "global citizens" was soon disrupted by the obvious signs that we were really not all in this together - equally - the sentiment has started to catch on throughout the world in the shape of an organically intersectional unification for the right to freedom of speech, freedom of movement, and the liberties of mankind.
On the other hand, leaders across the globe to a great extent have started to relax restrictions and open up society once again.
But there remain several holdouts - in Canada, France, Italy, New Zealand and Australia. Why is this and why are these nations apparently "all in this together" against the movement to respect the freedom of their citizens?

Race Marxism: Part 1 | The Causes of Things, Ep. 31
Dr. James Lindsay has just released what I would consider the most thoroughly researched work on the subject of critical race theory which is titled, "Race Marxism."
Dr. Lindsay has titled the book "Race Marxism" because that is exactly what critical race theory is: a Marxian conflict theory of race.
In this episode, Michael O'Fallon begins the first part of a thorough review of Dr. Lindsay’s book and the claim that critical race theory is simply "calling everything 'racist' until it is fully under your control."
Dr. James Lindsay's "Race Marxism" can be purchased immediately at https://www.amazon.com/Race-Marxism-Critical-Theory-Praxis/dp/B09SJ1NHG7/
