Michael Ruppert...RIP..."Apocalyse"...a fine Film and Well Worth the Watch...in Segments!

Apocalypse, Man: Michael C. Ruppert on World's End (Part 1)

VICE caught up with Michael in the middle of the epic beauty of the Rocky Mountains at the end of last year. We found a man undergoing a spiritual rebirth—still passionate about the world and with a whole new set of apocalyptic issues to talk about.

Apocalypse, Man is an intimate portrait of a man convinced of the imminent collapse of the world, but with answers to how the human spirit can survive the impending apocalypse.



His Earlier Work is "Collapse"...worth a weekend watch....whatever your Democratic Views are...Ruppert is a PART OF US! Seeking Truth and "Wandering in the Wilderness" which was the name of his first Blogsite. It's available on YOU TUBE...if you hit this link and look for it.

Whatever....if it's too heavy for you...then skip it because it's DARK ...but, those of us who were Turned On Against the Policics of our Past were fans of him.

Did he get much of it correctly as Prophets often do ....and did he make some mistakes in his thinking...well there are folks who can and will point out differences...But, he was a Powerful Voice in his Time on Earth and for that I will always appreciate his views and what he brought to the Internet Community in our Time of Need.

I'ts UP TO YOU ...to decide.

and Native American's Agricultural Policies and Sustainable Agriculture. PART 4 is an excellent watch if you hit it on You Tube...and while the earlier episodes are well worth the watch...it gets overwhelming but Part 4 is Sustainable Agriculture...which is excellent watch..if you want to skip over after the first couple.

I think he "cut out" of Life because he was so overwhelmed....but, he was so intuned with getting rid of GMO Seeds and how our Animal Life is so compromised by Big Agra that the animals live in inhumane situations and all the rest of what we Environmentalists are fighting against in Big Ag Production.

I think the whole series of "Apocalypse" is worth the watch from his interations with Native Americans trying to do good stuff and his Music Friend who was with him...etc. Takes some breaks lest we get terribly depressed ....but well worth the watch in segments. Just saying....!

Thanks. Looked interesting, but I couldn't handle the back ground music.

Back ground music would get so loud I found it distracting, then it would drop and would be ok again.

Then it got loud and annoying again, and I gave up on it.

individual. Some I knew and know and the reasoning is sound. Small victory, I called oil in Iraq as the only reason for invasion in my group from jump street-2004. They for the most part laughed. Thanks for posting, I shall be listening as long as I can take it this weekend. It really is dark and grim in prognosis. The world, because of oil and greed is really in sad shape heading for calamity on a scale unprecedented. Thanks again.

it is quite dark since we know he committed suicide soon after...and his "Collapse" film from much earlier years was prophetic about Peak Oil/Fracking for the Dregs.. along with the Banking Failure...... But, this one...I recommend Part I and 4..if one is in a dark mood themselves these days. And then fill in if one has an urge to go back after processing.

None of us need to be depressed...so in "Segments" it's a great watch...but, a bit much to binge on in one session.

Thanks for the recommend though...because what he says has much truth...even though others would find fault and he's not perfect...but he gets much correct...imho.

...when he ran the From The Wilderness newsletter and the Collapsenet website.

He was one of the best investigative journalists in the country - look at his work on CIA drug running, his breaking of the Pat Tillman scandal, and Crossing The Rubicon. He dotted his i's and crossed his t's - which is likely why he was considered such a threat and needed to be marginalized as much as possible by TPTB.

Those that aspire to can only hope to succeed him - but he can never be replaced.
