Photographs. Paintings. Editorial cartoons.ย Cover art. Memes. We are steeped every day of our lives in visual art. And who can doubt the profound effect that a particularly striking image can have on our psyche? Today, James explores the way art and imagery can be used to unlock minds and deprogram the masses with two practicing artists, Anthony Freda and Jordan Henderson.

“Sanity, Her Son and the Credulous” featured in Off-Guardian: Covid Positive โ Messages of Hope
Treebeardโs Razor: The Ents Weigh in on AI Art and Writing
James,
the link is https://anthonyfreda.com/ not friede
Watching this conversation left me with an unexpected thought.
Anthony Freda’s illustrations don’t simply comment on current eventsโthey reveal the architecture of our time: the systems, narratives and power structures that shape the world around us.
It made me wonder how many artists around the world are documenting this same historical moment from completely different perspectives, yet remain unaware of one another.
One artist who came to mind is Stephan B. Reisig from Amsterdam (https://stephanreisig.exto.nl/). His work seems to explore the opposite dimension. Where Anthony often reveals what is happening around us, Stephan explores what those same forces do within us. Different artistic languages, yet together they describe different dimensions of the same era.
Perhaps there are hundredsโor even thousandsโof artists across the world creating pieces of the same larger picture.
What if they could simply discover one another?
Not another movement. Not another ideology. Just an international constellation of independent artists, each documenting our time through their own culture, medium and experience.
History remembers artists as witnesses of their age. Perhaps, for the first time, those witnesses have the opportunity to meet while history is still unfolding.
Thank you, James and Anthony, for inspiring that thought.
I make the art move. I am BuelahMan.

After careful review and ongoing evaluation of the regulatory landscape in the United Kingdom, we regret to inform you that BitChute will be discontinuing its video sharing service for UK residents.
But a little bit of tor, and the barrier got tore, and I watched ‘the DC tower’ and I felt the film empower … ditch the violence, don’t cower, just show Truth, and disempower, all those grabbers of the levers of dominance … banish them to an island where they can fight each other but not disturb the peace and prosperity of those who want just to live in harmony with neither bombs nor poverty nor stupid gullible animal delusion … the world will end in peace … when the fighters are all deceased.
Butntinuing its video sharing service for UK residents.e for UK residents.uuuihil
Great to see a selection of these types of artist James. My group were doing pictures on the subject of ‘animal heads’ and there may have been some leeway into controversy but I thought that people with animal heads sounded a bit ungodly! After talking about stripes in the sky they are not talking to me anyway, they have labelled me as a conspiracy theorist. During covid I did a drawing of a trapped person and monkeys in masks ect and entered it into a contest – but they said they had not received it – I wonder!
I’m still waiting for an artist that doesn’t disappear or leave me wondering if they’re even working on the project.
I also don’t like finding people for work (which I admit limits me); I prefer to find someone that’s somehow connected to someone I know.
Great interviews with real artists. I was particularly interested in the story of Antony Freda and how he was encouraged to pursue his natural talents to the point where he was making a good living, yet after realizing that his talents were being used in a bad way decided to do good with his talents. The fact that he saw all three buildings come down onto their own footprint “with his own eyes” on 9/11/01 caused him to see the world differently, and thus he has made a great impact exposing the truth.
I don’t know if it was Broc or Antony that put up the video of the Military looking Dump Trumps lined up to cart the debris away as the dust was still settling but that reminded me of when I saw the Controlled Demolition of the King Dome on March 26, 2000 in Seattle. At the time it was toted as the Biggest Controlled Demolition of a concrete structure. I got up early that Sunday morning to get on the Ferry Boat leaving Bremerton for Seattle so that I could see the Demolition from out on the water. The Ferry Boat Captain was aware of the Demolition and deliberately put us with the best view. After getting off the Ferry Boat my buddy and i walked the Streets of Seattle watching the clean up crews who were ready and waiting. By Monday morning they had gotten nearly all the dust off the roads and sidewalks. Indeed, it did take a few weeks to clear the concrete from the fenced in area around the Demolition site, but it was amazing how fast things were back to normal. The Dump Trucks in NY on 9/11/01 would indicate that the WTC buildings were just another pre planned Demolition, only those who planned it had no concern for human life. Thus they are criminals that need to be prosecuted.

We know that the CIA manipulated and promoted abstract art in the early 1950s.
For the past few years I have been working as an art model at the Art Students League of New York.
I met a few older master teachers involved with art that makes political statements.
One man age 94 Max Ginsberg, still teaches and you can see some of his recent work relevant to this discussion here on his site. It is featured on his main page. you don’t have to scroll though a lot of stuff:
https://www.maxginsburg.com
As our culture slowly disintegrates into the controllerโs agenda of fast food, digital โfriends,โ damaged attention spans, clicheโ everything from โpop stars,โ music, movies, food, politics, and more it seems to me the only viable path to reach most under 50 or so is sinking into memes, youtube SHORTS, and jingles, what used to be know as “Bumper Sticker” philosophy.
With so many of the true artists deep into their aging process what should be the next “wave” of painters, sculptors, etc. is merely an insignificant ripple. Where do we put the blame on all this? Mostly on the intentional effort of various secret and not so secret societies and individuals seeking world control who want workers and customers, not thinkers. A concept that is difficult unfortunately for too many to rise above their conditioning of resistance to change to accept. But it IS real. When I was young we went to the SF museums, local art shows to support friends, and more.
The height of today’s foolishness of course was a janitor removed an exhibit in a museum of an exhibit of a garbage and trash thinking it was real refuse ๐

What is with the faded, downsized font James?
Man! I loved this SolutionsWatch on Resistance Art!
It was so interesting, especially when the two artists Anthony Freda and Jordan Henderson talked about their personal stories and philosophical concepts.
And of course, I loved the visuals. Broc did a good job too on the header.
— Anthony Freda – “9-11 Questions”
I remember when that came on the scene! As a strong “North Texas for 9/11 Truth” group activist, we were all abuzz.
Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth
Saturday December 13, 2014 – Written by Craig McKee –
Really? 9/11 Truth Art Accepted by Museum at Ground Zero
https://www1.ae911truth.org/en/news-section/57-news-releases-by-others/929-really-911-truth-art-accepted-by-museum-at-ground-zero.html
EXCERPTS
Freda met with museum staff for 90 minutes to donate the art and to answer questions about the images it contains.
The entire exchange was filmed for a documentary called Behind Truth Art, which is planned for release in 2015. (This 30-minute preview shows highlights of the meeting.)
This was so cool…and it was written by AI…
— Jordan Henderson — Treebeardโs Razor –
โIt is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time saying anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a long time to say, and to listen to.โ –Treebeard
I was hoping either Anthony or James would remember that AE911Truth article and mention it. Alas. What I didn’t count on, but should’ve, was that good ole HRS would recall it . . . and give us the link to it. Thanks, Mr. North Texas for 9/11 Truth Extraordinaire!
Say, I wonder if the 9/11 Museum staff ever brought Anthony’s artwork out of the basement, where they “hid” it from museum-goers, and put it prominently on display? Somehow I doubt it.
Thanks to everyone on this thread who has spoken of Anthony’s and Jordan’s intelligence, articulateness, and ethics. Like all of you, I, too, found their “wake-up” stories fascinating and their courageous stand for goodness and honorableness appealing.
Ooops… a typo…
It should read:

These two fellas are Legends in the game, thanks for highlighting them James.
AF has a light & nimble touch that delivers like Bruce Lee’s one inch punch. I was smiling till the end of the interview after he said he took 9/11 personally cus it was his home. Being @ Ground-Zero provides an insight & potency unmatched in the “normal world” his authenticity is palpable… (Interestingly, went to purchase one of his limited prints of the piece in the 9/11 museum, but it won’t ship to OZ… If I send it stateside whomever I send it to, to forward, would likely keep it…)
In JH’s work it’s intuitive and matches/exceeds his intentions, once explained. & again, a Firefighter, the kind of person that knows what’s what… His work also has gravitas…
Commendations to both artists for touching the third rail of race and standing strong. Could see long conversations with both of these Master Craftsmen…
I am an artist, been creating in the wings looking to find/see an opportunity to get in the water… Till now, I thought I was solo flying blind… Hearing both of these soft spoken kind Men open up was refreshing, and what they both had to say, was like hearing my own thoughts reworded via thesaurus and spoken by expert voice actors. This has provided some much needed clarity…
The one burning question I have for them both is: how do you maintain what your piece truly means, or is that just delusional fear and need for control, to think you even can?
Between AI, the sheer glut of media and already having so much of my lifes work usurped (much like AF), I find it challenging to see the path…
Reckon I could use some hand holding if I’ve gotta upload my babies to the beast…SMH Who’d have thought keeping people alive, bandaging amputations and GSWs would create a person hesitant to present film, colourful thoughts on canvas or ideas…
Anyway, Thanks again James, it feels good to be heard.
Blessing,
CG

— New Corbett Canvas… Comment Section —
Historical Record: Around the same times as this “Resistance Art โ #SolutionsWatch” was published, James Corbett started to introduce a new format for the comment section. He has been tweaking it. I gotta say that I like it.
On the morning of Thursday July 2, 2026, James Corbett wrote:
“As you might have seen, Iโve just updated the comment system here at corbettreport.com. Thereโs a few fancy bells and whistles on this new system, but at the end of the day itโs still basically a comment box.

I can not delete my reply yet
zyxzevn,
I’ll bet that James addresses your comment.
I re-posted it here…
https://corbettreport.com/june-open-thread-and-subscriber-exclusive-video-2026/#comment-188305
For myself, I used your comment for a test about 15 minutes ago.
I tried the lower right edit tool like you did, but there was no option for delete.
So, I ‘cut’ all my script and left nothing in the comment box.
With my comment box empty, I closed this “SolutionsWatch” webpage window. Then reopened it. (same as a ‘refresh’)
I did not have a ‘blank’ reply to you.
So, I’m guessing that that is one method to delete a comment — just delete the words.
This brings to my mind another QUESTION:
How long is edit function available?
On the old format, a timer counted down the edit function, then automatically published when the clock ran out.
That <empty text> trick is useful.
During editing it is helpful to have a longer clock limit.
Often I discover that I had made text mistakes.
Or I want to add some links.
And it does not help when it starts autopublishing my half-edited stuff.
I’m laughing.
I know that feeling… “And it does not help when it starts autopublishing my half-edited stuff.”

very interesting and inspiring art – I also enjoyed the musings and perspectives by JH (like “Treebeard’s Razor) – really cool concept!
dancing for architectural context,
true James, pictures can convey 1000’s of words quick smart. Painted or sculpted imagery and music are languages that communicate in ways words only dream of.
and-but, like the fine woman’s reply to my playful compliments about her beauty, “keep it classy mate”. I say the same for higher levels of language. While there is still lucid intellect mixed with stunning skill amongst us, there has also risen a try to usurp the power of the modality’s, just for the sake of? the power? I think its jealousy.
AI is pure plagiarism. but so were a few notables before it: How about the guy who put a black square canvas (a few have done it), or Warhol photographing Da Vinci’s “last supper”, making full size silk screens getting off face with drugs, and Jackson pollock like squirting paint and squeegeeing their heads off,,,
then a few hang overs later:
AI Overview
Andy Warhol created over 100 variations and renditions of Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper during the final year of his life (1986). Because these pieces vary significantly in size, scale, and medium, individual artworks range from $5 million to over $60 million at auction.
The red card is given for the use of the word “created” above.
(for those unfamiliar with silk screen printing, its the simple cheap way millions of t shirts get printed. we used to pay 0.25cents for hanes beefy t’s in bulk spend about 15 seconds squeegying on a print and then selling them for $15 (those were the early 80’s)
“beware the jub jub bird, and shun the frumious bandersnatch” (L.Carol)
Artist also worth looking into: Thorsten Kirsch. Cartoonist: social satire on the “use of mobile” / zombie society / resulting decadent society:
https://kirsch-illustration.de/ebook-smartphonezombies-diary
In this regard, I strongly recommend watching the documentary “The digital dilema” (on the damage that electromagnetic radiation -or more precisely, radiowaves radiation, have on health):
https://www.vereinwir.ch/5g/?wchannelid=qzlofn2sxc&wmediaid=cgwtni4juz
As well as the documentary “Cognitive Liberty: Neuroweapons and the Fight for Brain Privacy“ on Mind Control (using microwave radiation… which, not surprisely is being no rolled out word wide):
https://youtu.be/BgPdpCAPfn4?si=Vlp_PaHQO96kZJVE
That was so interesting, what both artists had to say and what they are doing. And they are both extremely handsome.
