Feeling Good Doing Evil
A chilling new form of tyranny has arrived — one that comes with smiles, slogans, and “good intentions.” Corporations and global elites are fusing the control mechanisms of 20th-century communism. They have been centralizing power through compelled speech, identity hierarchies, and utopian promises framed using the language of equity, sustainability, and stakeholder capitalism.
Our governments now protect transnational corporate interests over their own citizens’ well-being. Too many people unwittingly fall in line with the mandates, not realizing that by falling in line they are working against their own best interests – “feeling good doing evil.”
The result is a system that weaponizes our kindness: policies that sound virtuous but deliver censorship, energy poverty, food insecurity, and spikes in violence as wealth flows relentlessly upward.
- The first step is to see Corporate Communism for what it is.
- The next stepis to stop fuelling it with our goodwill and compliance.

The story of
Maret Jaks
Fierce grandmother | Tech consultant & writer | Business Owner | Free speech advocate.
Maret Jaks is a fearless independent author, speaker, and cultural critic whose work stands out for its intellectual honesty and refusal to self-censor in an era of enforced conformity. With an Estonian refugee mother who escaped Soviet communism, Maret grew up with an instinctive understanding of how quickly freedom can be lost to ideology and centralized power. This heritage deeply informs her writing, giving her a unique perspective on contemporary threats to Western liberty, cohesion, and truth.
But she’s not all about politics. She built her tech business while jointly raising her family with her ex-husband (also in tech). A firm believer in working directly with people who need help, she once fostered four teenage girls, served as an advocate for women in prison, and volunteered with elderly residents in care homes. These chapters of her life, along with her deep love of nature and the environment (without being a climate catastrophist) reinforce her conviction that each of us should live like it matters, because it does.
Oh, and she’s a dog-lover, too.
