A Fourth Turning Tale – Something Rotten

Denmark is in the news, Dear Reader. It had to happen…

*I mean, it’s not like you didn’t start the New Year with a Hamlet post, Clicky… /lights up and smokes…*

If you’ve been following along with my Fourth Turning Tale Green Colour Revolution guide since the start of December, you may not have been surprised that the thorny subject of Greenland and its ownership was raised again last week. Although not physically green, Greenland is figuratively green in that it is vastly underdeveloped (virginal) and still bound by apron strings to Mother Denmark.

Of course, the line from Hamlet ‘Something is rotten in the state of Denmark’ is spoken by a periphery figure, the guard Marcellus… Ma, sell us… 

*You could call it an ‘undiscovered country’, eh, Clicky? …/wink...*

*Ah, Patton recognition from Tom Luongo at the end… /taps ash… Weird, Patton died because of a glass partition, Clicky… /drags… You were popping off posts about glass all through the summer of ’24 after they tried to assassinate Orange Man Bad… /plumes smoke…*

*No, it was a different kind of shot to Trump’s ear, Clicky, but I like your thinking…*

*You’re right, that is like Trump! Saying mad things, spitting truth… /cough… completely throwing the bigwigs off their game. They can’t control him…*

*Quite. He’s beating them at their own game…*

*…/rolls eyes… And making them act stupid…*

*If Denmark is Greenland’s Mother, Clicky, then the EU’s Fond of Lying is its mouthy lesbian step-mum… /stubs butt…*

*Apparently the UK is sending a boot for on the ground. The game is definitely afoot…

*And the play’s the thing…*

The word ‘rotten’, Dear Reader, is an apt one for this Fourth/Winter/Crisis Turning that we are living through. It is the season of death and the stench of decay, be it in politics, culture, art or the unmistakable rot in the fabric of society itself has been making us all rather sick…

*Yep, turning us green; the process is the punishment…*

*Wait. Where’s Rotten Row?*

*Oh, it’s in a park, how very Green …/jaw drops… OMG! It was created by the original, unironic, Orange Man Bad?! Of Inglorious Revolution fame, another Fourth Turning…*

*LOL… /pats snout… Something’s in Dire Straits…*

Dear Reader, have a Song…

A Fourth Turning Tale – A Toke & Tipple Shamble With Clicky

*I remember that Winter Of Discontent, Clicky… /lights up and smokes… I was eleven…*

*’Now is the winter of our discontent, made glorious summer by this son of… a toolmaker…*

*Satanic? Then Kweir could be demon-strating Rachel’s black hole… /takes black sambuca shot…*

*…/gulps Red Bull chaser… Ahh! So warming… /burps liquorish with medicinal tang…*

*Good movie. Set in the previous Fourth Turning Winter/Crisis season… /taps ash… Funny how Japan’s empire rose and set all whilst the British Empire just carried on…*

*… the back of the hoodwinked giant? Gotta say, Clicky, ‘The Rules-Based Order’ does sound rather more like British phraseology than American…*

*Well, waging war with drugs has been the British Empire’s business model for hundreds of years, Clicky… /stubs butt…*

*Whoa! That’s a lot of dogs. I wonder…*

*We had the Warsaw Pact form at the start of the saeculum – could it be ending with a British/EU suicide pact…*

*…/sigh…*

A Fourth Turning Tale – Sauce For The Goose Is Source Code For The Proper Gander…

Sew… Dear Reader, at the very start of the month I posted on my sync thinking that not only are we experiencing a colour revolution, that’s theme is GREEN…

*Indeed Kelly ‘War’ Green, Clicky… /lights up and smokes… and the internet is very much involved, which is just so Matrixy green…*

… but also that our current Fourth/Winter/Crisis Turning probably started earlier than most people think, with the Dot-Com financial crash in 2000 (money/green), closely followed by the felling of the Twin Towers on 9/11 in 2001 (Muslim/green). All Fourth Turnings start with a bang, financial or physical; ours started with both… 

*Published in the last First Turning and was some fucking epic foreshadowing, Clicky… /taps ash…*

… Then add a massive outbreak of Foot & Mouth disease in Blighty in 2001, chipping in a wholesale ritual burning of livestock (sickness/green) to really set the tone…

*Ugh. He makes me feel sick, Clicky, that’s green… /dry retch…*

… Of course in between then and now we’ve had:

  • The EU (flag/blue+yellow=green) introducing the Euro currency (money/green);

  • The War on Terror and invasions of Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria (Muslim/green);

  • The Arab Spring (green/green);

  • Ukraine War (flag/blue+yellow=green);

  • Catholic Church covering up pedo practices and immigrant Muslim rape gangs targeting British and European white girls (youth/green); 

  • Outbreaks of SARS, Swine Flu, Ebola and Covid-19 (sickness/green);

  • Northern Rock crash in 2007 followed by The Financial Crash of 2008 followed by the European debt crisis in 2010 (money/green);

  • Climate Change and Net Zero policies (eco-bollocks/green);

  • Social Justice campaigns (politics of envy/green);

  • Digitization of everything (Matrix/green).

This is just a brief listing from the past 25 years off the top of my head, Dear Reader. I’m sure there are more green colour revolution examples and if you think of any, then please do pop them in the comments, below 😀

*Ha! The idiom mutilated for the post’s title. Thanks Clicky… /puffs contentedly… You know, EM Burlingame reckons the Estrogens are behind it all…*

… Speaking of comments, it was in the comment section of my post of 1st December that I noticed that the movie Magnolia was also released in 1999, the same year as The Matrix. It occurred to me that perhaps an opposing force was running a Green counter-colour revolution. Perhaps the film should have been called MAGAnolia 😉

… Whereas The Matrix is about escaping from a digital green prison, Magnolia deals with the fallout from generational relationships – all very Fourth Turning Generational Theory – topped off with a sudden storm of green frogs cascading out of nowhere, creating chaos and changing everything…

*Did you know Hillary Clinton’s Secret Service code name was ‘Evergreen’, Clicky? …/stubs butt… Of course the witch is ever green. Thank goodness she didn’t win in 2016…*

… And precipitating a healing process for the cast of characters. Great film, Magnolia. Sorry for the frog spoiler, Dear Reader, but it is definitely worth a viewing…

*There is no ‘QAnon’, Clicky. There is Q, a military operation backing Donald Trump, and there are The Anons, an army of digital frogs, interrogating the Q drops and battling the lamestream media Wormtongues. Seriously, SNL shouldn’t have brought a witch to a wizard fight…*

*Healing the sovereign…*

… The colour green has many positive associations as well as bad, perfect for a counter-revolutionary force as this Winter Kelly Green Fourth Turning comes to an end and the next Spring Green First Turning unfurls…

Dear Reader, green also means GO 😉 Have a Song…
